Ed. CzarioR:-Messrs Smylie & White have
made arrangements TO run the ferry across
Pearl River. North OF Jackson, known as
the-Old whites Ferry" They propose to
change the road so as TO cross the River at
the salt Perre Point" East, from the foot
of High street, thus avoiding the lanyard
Branch and Whites Slough. as they are i'm
passible for three months in the year. BY
the New Road they will be able to use the
Ferry the entire year. This will be benefi-
ciai TO the citizens of Rankin north of the
Brandon road, as the Bridge canrot be
reached without making a long detour and
over a road almost impossible. The mer-
chants of Jackson will be benefited, as the
farmers will be enabled to bring their pro-
duce to this market, whereas they now car
ry it to Brandon. Madison Station, and other
points. Yours, SHORT CUT
