On the line Of the Mississippi Central

class of miscreants who cheat justice and

superintendent Of the Mississippi Central,
telegraphed to Z. Pritchard, Esq, acting
president of the jackson Railroad, in refer

morning, within fifteen miles Of Water
Valley: "There is no apparent eanse for
the accident. The freight train was fred

the late frequent accidents upon the North

some must have been the work of delibcr-
ate design. People living along the lines Of
roads owe it to themselves and their good
name to bring all such Williams to justice.
