VIcksburg and this place will have such
mails in readiness as are destined for the a.
bove named ports, so that they may be imme-
diately taken on board when called for. The
Volant makes three trips to and fromsVicks-
burg during each week, and as the obIiging
disposition of Captain Young is well known
70 US, we do not hesitate to assert he would
willingly confer favor on our citizens BY
using every exertion on his part toward
accomplishing the object in view. The Vo,
liant would then bring US the Vicksburg mai
regularly, and thereby enable our merchants
to ascertain the state of the markets below
some three or more days earlier than they d.
at present, excepting when boat arrives
direct from New Oreans.) Even should thu
Volant require pecuniary remuneration 70
the trouble and inconvenience given he
commander in procuring the mail bags, sucf
arrangement would justify all reasonable ex
penses. We sincerely hope the utility of tn
plan may be tested.

The Mails via The River.

1t would undoubtedly be matter of great
convenience to the people of this section of
the country, if the mails could be, whilst
navigation permitted, conveyed to this place
from Vicksburg, Natchez. &C., by way ofthe
river. The mail from Vicksburg 10 Yazoo
City, under such arrangement, would be
transported from one place to the other in a
few hours: whereas, by the present mode of
conveyance, it Is not unfrequently the case,
that three or four days elapse between its
leaving Vicksburg and its being received
here. We are assured that the ever accom-
modating and gentlemany commanders of
the STEAMBOATS, Joan of Arc and Walnut Hills,

their respective boats, on their downward

taken of the celebrated Premium Ploughs
made by Peacock, of Cincinnati. These
ploughs, from experience, are proved to be
superior to any now in use, securing them

We believe, none of them have as yet been

il affords us pleasure to notice the generous

Captains MosBY and WRIGHT. of the steam

Mosby invited a number of these gentlemen
to take passage on his boat, free of charge,
