TuE banana is an article oil primary

with wheat in Europe will only support
two persons, As to the exu6erance OF
its growth, It is calculated that, other

The LeveesTax Carried.

The election which was held Satur-
day last, under the provisions of the
charter of the Mississippi Levee Com
pany, to ascertain,the sense of the laud
owners as to whether they would accept
the provisions Of said .eharter,j impos-
! ing a tax Of 50 per acre on their. lands,
etc., to build said leyee, resulted in the
success of the Levee, only three votes
having been cast against it. The vote
stood:
For the Levee-43
Against the Levee-3.
The vote may appear small to those
not acqainted with the facts, but we
are confident it embraces a good major.
ity of the actual land owners; and we
are also confident that nearly all those
absent or not voting, are for the levee.
The Kentucky section therefore to be
affected BY the proposed leyeo may be
considered nearly unanimous for the
enterprise.
So now we have this much accom-
plished toward this much needed en-
terprise. 1t is estimated that the tax
thus voted, will raise between forty aud
fifty thousand dollars, which added to
the thirty odd thousand already prom
ised through individual subscription,
will give the Company capital, or Sc
eurities, to the amount of SO, 900 or
So, 900 The proposed levee will, it
is estimated, cost between 500, 600 and
$3.50 600; but this is mere guess work,
no actual estimate having been made.
Indeed many guess far below these fig
ures.
At an early day, the land owners will /
now proceed to the organization of
permanent company, to be composed of
a President and Board Of Directors
When elected, this Board, we presume, /
will 20 actively to work, in their effort /
to obtain additional subscription; aud
at as early day as possible to cause a
preliminary survey and estimate to be
made.
The Lavee prospects now look en-
eouragjng. The Kentucky land own
ers have done their part or placed
themselves in position to have to do
it. In Kentucky there is about twenty
or twenty-five thousand acres to be le-
deemed, while in Tennessee there is
between eighty and one hundred thous-
and acres. If our Tennessee neigh
oors viii come up in anything like a
manner, the leyee will be
built, and that right speedily.

RAID on NEGRo BAGNIo.-The
Hickman police made raid on a negro
bagnio, Monday morning, because of
certain disturbances therein Sunday
night, and made haul of soms eight
or ten colored youths and the proprie-
tress of said establishment. The city
J udge being absent, Mayor Tyler
presided, ex officio. The scene in
court was lively one. The testimo
nv was of rare quality, and in its
detail, more than once broughts round
of laughter from the auditorium, and
albeit, the Court, himself. The evi-
dence was conclusive however, that the
..bucks" did disturb the peace, and
his Honor mulcted each of them in a
fine of SO each, and cost. The charge
aeainsteMary Weaver, for keeping a
baudy house, was sustained in the
proof, and she was fined 800 and cost
$50 of which she shelled out on the
spot. and begged time on tae balance.
The assessments of the Mayor court for
the morning. term of say 80 minutes
announced to about 1920 for the city
treasury. The conduct of certain
blacks, and indeed certain whites, has
become outrageously bad of late, aud
we trust the examples here made will
prove salutary lesson in the future.
