ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The weather continues disagreeable-
fog, rain and mud in abundance, without
prospect of a cessation-and the streets
paved with Nicolson and stone pave
ments are in very bad condition, owing
to the neglect of some one, mud having
accumulated thereon to the depth of several
inches, more especially the crossings.
The river at this point is still declining,
with nine and half feet in the channel
to Cairo. At Cairo the river is reported
stationary. The Ohio is receding slowly
both at Cincinnati and Louisville, with
six feet four inches in the canal at the
latter place. The Arkansas is rising,
with FIVE feet in the channel from Little
Rock out, and three feet above there.
Business on the leves this morning was
anything but brisk.

most popular boat in the above trade,
the Darling, leaves this evening at the

The LOCAL INSURANCE CoMPAsIEs-
The article criticized by Colonel Ben.
May was written as an advertisement,
and should have been marked as snch
in your local columns. 1t is none the
less true in its facts and theory. If the
money invested by merchants and prop
erty-holders in local insurance COM
panies, like the jackson, Desoto and
others, which are quasi banks If
the capital of these excellent Institutions
we're devoted to manufacturing purposes,
there would be employment for multi
tudes of working men and bread for their
children. The city's population would
be augmented, and nobody would be
poorer. Very certainly the rates Of in
surance would not be so increased that
competition am ng foreign companies
would not keep them down. Mr.. May is
somewhat sensitive. l do not know that
his concern was specially alluded to, and
/ did not intend to condemn it.

The County COURT AND GAYoso
HoUsE.-One OF our morning cotempo-
raries adopts our suggestion in reference
to the purchase of the Gayoso House by
the county. 1t occurs to us that a vast
deal of money in rents may be saved, and
il the county could collect rents, the
many rooms in the Gayoso might be made
the source of revenue, and the vast sums
now squandered by the thieves who rule,
that they may rob taxpayers, would be
greatly lessened. While the county pays
$2l, 900 annually for stationery, instead
of $3000-the sum paid before the war
the masters of the county could hardly
be expected to consult public interest in
the matter of rents.

John Adams, professional Migrants and
pickpockets, were this morning again
peeping over the railing of the Commits

nocence, and in whose mouths butter
would not have melted. They talked so
softly and injured like. These two are
well known to the police, and are part
of the gang that have been in these parts
for some little time. They were each
fined in the sum of ten dollars, and
passed into the crowd of mottle faces that
can be seen through the prison bars.

worth of his money. The house has been
tastefully arranged and constructed by
the architect, Mr.. Caldwell. who Is fine
mechanic, and deserves much credit, and
should be patronised. The performers
were all they should have been. Among
the distinguished were Mas Mollie Hep
