The cotton shipping advertisement
of the Southern Miss. Railroad in
another column, should command the
attention of forwarding merchants and
the planters Of the vicinity The in
. terests Of the cotton grower are init
mately linked with the facilities of
transportation. The Southern Rail
road proposes to forward cotton at
four dollars per bale from Jackson to
New Orleans; this sum covering insul
rance, &c, at vieksburg Since the
completion of the bridge over Big
Black River this Road has been
making great progress, and has given
evidences of much attention to the
general welfare and the removal of all
causes of complaint; and we now learn
that the transportation over the Road
is prompt and satisfactory, and that
freights are. delivered at jackson in
most cases on the evening of the day
they are receipted for in Vicksburg,
The fndentigable industry and energy
of the officers Of the Southern Rail
road should not be forgotten When
the chances of war had dealt death
blow to the Confederacy, the South
ern Railroad like all the Roads of the
. 4 Z. g I
South was almost worn out, in mate
rial and nearly crippled for want of
finances, and its President, DR. Emah-
uel, started Immediately to consult
with the creditors of the Road, hothin
the Northern cities and Europe; sue
cess was the result; the credits were
extendedand the Road remains in the
hands Of the Southern gentlemen, who
spared no money and no means at their
disposal to accomplish its completion.
A little more patience on the. part of
the public, and it viii find that there
are no faults traceable to the officers
of this road. All Of them are well
adapted to their peculiar line of bust
ness. The master of transportation
Mr.. Lawrence--is a gentleman Of great
railroad experience, having spent all
the business portion of his life on
the road. tits well known the success
of that road is an important consider
alton to the people Of Jackson and
East Mississippi The trade and pros
perity of our city is closely allied with
its success, and should not be over
looked. To encourage this road, win
be to encourage the internal resources
ofCentraI Mississippi, and thereby ben
eft jackson; for if there is good
channel % communication from the
Eastern portion Of the State through
jackson, we cannot fail to be benefited
here at home by trihes like eggs, butter
and chickens, and the greater things,
such as cotton-cur old king-as well
as lumber and other articles Of inter
nal produce

HINTS TO MOTHERS.

If you wish to cultivate a gossipping,
meddling, censorious spiritin your child
rem, be sure when they come home from
church, visit, or any other place where
you do not accompany them, to ply them
with questions as to what everybody wore,
how everybody looked, and what every
body said and did-and if you find any
thing in all this to .censure, always do it
in their hearing. You may rest assured
chat If YOU pursue course Of this kind,
they will not return to you unladen with
intelligence; and, rather than it should
be uninteresting, they will by degrees
learn to embelish in such a manner as
shall not fail to call forth remarks and
expressions of wonder from you. You
will by this course, render the spirit Of
uriosity-which is so early visible in
children-aud which, if rightly directed,
may be the instrument of enrlching and
enlarging their minds, or be made We
hicle Of mischief, which shall serve only
to narrow them.
