A SUGGESTION.

Mn. ED1roR-The fire that destro yed the
buildings on the river Thursday night last,
left three or four vacant lots exposed. These
lots would afford ample space for wharf. and
| have no doubt they cond be purchased at
reasonable rates. Cannot the Town Council
meet at once and appoint Committee to take
the matter in hand7 1t is the most suit able place
for wharf Win not the matter be brou oht

No better place could be found for a wharf
something the iowa needs and could make a
source OF revenue. Steps ought to be taken
also, for providing the town with good supply
of water. The town could we'll afford the

ST., STEPHENS ACADEMY.-This is a day
and boarding school located al Vicksburg, and
presided over by the Rev. Albert Lyon who is
practically as well as theoretically a most ex-
cellent scholar and teacher. 1t is designed for
the trai ming and education of boys, and has a
course of studies which embraces a complete
education, from the alphabet to and including
the highest studies. Mr.. Lyon takes boy
of eight years. not yet able to read, and in seven
years, or at fifteen. turns him out systemat-
ically educated. The arrangement is unqnes-
sionably an excellent one, about which More
can be cleaned from an advertisement else
where.
An enterprise started by Mr.. Lyon is worthy
of attention. He proposes to educate gratri-
sously five boys who are in INDECENT crcum-
stances and sons of deceased Confederate
soldiers. ExGov. Humphreys, Gen. Harris
and Mr. Miller, of Vicksburg, have issued q
circular stating that Mr.. Lyon will receive as
many other such boys as shall find friends to pa.
their expenses. The whole expense in eacl
case, for session of nine months, it is stated
will not exceed $125, and the city OF Vicks
burg. these gentlemen promise, will do liberia
share. This is certainly propositi on Of grea
merit. Theye ia not community which can
