suit OF il association~ andihr thinness
OF the food upon which it fed

son silver Coruet Band. was presented by
Mr.. Ben. stilIvvelI, Of Humboldt, with

BAILEY's sPRINcs.-One Of the most
popular resorts this warm weather is the
lannon's Bailey Springs; than which none
are known better nor more fayorably by
the pieasure-seeking public. The Springs
are controlled by gentlemen long experien-
ced in the Hotel business, who guarantee
satisfaction to all visitors. The waters are
/ known to be Of the best IN the United
States, while the location is very desirable.
Visit Bailey's.
A NUISANCE North side or Main
Street, along in front of Tomiin's Block, is
in a disgraceful and shameful condition.
I \ chain Of hog-wallows, from which arises

author Mr.. Frank W Cam pbeli. This Map
attr actci .snneFrf attention aud r.. srable |
criticism during the Convention, and con-
sdering the hortness Of time consumed in |

models used, it is really = most lneI itorious |
work. 1t stamp, Mr.. Campbell st once an |
Engineer Of high merit. He will please
accept our mJst grateful thanks for the |
present. coupled with the wish tn all his /
efforts in life may be As successful.
LEvEE WORK.-We understand that
work will soon begin on Chester's and Nc
Clanahan's Leyees. and that it is the deter
mination of the Commissioner 70 have
what is done we'll done. The Leyees viii I
be raised above high water mark and the
bridges built upon piling. Good roads,
and especially good leyees aud bridges, are
among the very greatest needs OF the eoun-
~. Pu5lic and private Interests have
suffered seriously for years for want of
them, and the present movement in the
right direction is hailed with general salts
faction.
MANY iNKs.-One day this week our
heart was made grateful and the waste
places Of our stomach glad, by the present
of peck of beautiful. luscious tomatoes.
The kind donor was Mrs. ]. l.. Parham. ,
lady whose heart is fun OF that active good /
ness so beautifully taught in the Scriptures, /
and upon her and hers we and ours invoke
the richest blessings of earth aud heaven.
A GENTLENIAN.-The young gentlemen
of the Ball and Sociable on the |
evening OF July 29th. request Il. TO return !
their thanks TO Mr.. Briggs, Master Mechan-
ic Of the Mobile ard Ohio Railroad shops j
Of this City, for his Kindness in furnishing
them with the means OF Illuminating the !
College building and grounds on that occa- !
sion. Mr.. Briggs, in the short time he has
been a citizen of Jackson, has Won golden ,
opinions from all who have had the pleas
ure of his acquaintance, by his uniform Z
modest and gentlemanly deport- /
nent. l
HOTELS RIGuT.-The liberalty of fhe 1
House ami the Commercial Ho- !
EEL in entertaining, without charge, num- Q
Der Of delegates to the late Convention, y
deserves the thanks OF the City and the T
lina offices Of every citizen in the future. :
and with a hospitality equal Z
o the occasion, they entertained in a
Drineely manner large number Of guests,
Ill or whom went away delighted with
heir treatment. We cordially recommend
hese houses TO the travelling public, and
guarantees courtesy, and watehfuI attention n
o every want, comfortable rooms and boun-
itul, clearly and well served tables. al
SUBSTANTIAL APPRECIATIoN.--It is sell =
iOm, in this degenerate age, that editors ri
ire properly appreciated. Instances of d
heir just appreciation are like GASES IN C,
he desert. Hence, when they occur, they W
tamp themselves in letters inetTaceable
ind bright, upon the editorial memory-to a.
Jay nothing OF the editorial stomach. Now :,
We were made recently the object Of one OF !
hese rare and substantial appropriations. h
L came in the shape Of home-cured, home
cooked, elegantly dressed and richly SEA- p
oned Ham, from tue hands of Mrs. ]. B. Il
Long, whose experience, taste and house a
ieepAg skill are models of perfection.- q
When it came, and we gazed upon its fair, =
avOry proportions and inhaled the rich ;,
roma emitted from every pore and ex- II
its full, ripe, aud delicious flavor, c
We felt ike certain Georgian of the oiden
ime, when he came to deliver Fourth of Il
July Grafton eve had not words with b
which to express the thoughts of our raw ST
shed soul or the gushing emotions Of our
heart" To the kind donor, in Y
he chaste language of old Rip VanwinkIe,I
Ne will say 'here's to you an your family, a.
nay all live long and prosper"
DESS OF INEAMY.-In various parts OF .
he City dens OF iniquity, kept by the most
Ihandoned negro women are permitted to
.xist, it seems, without exciting the pious
Indignation OF the God and Morality"
aembers OF the City Council. The dis
,usting conduct Of the negro wantons who
nhabit these deRS is not confined 10 night
nd its plying darkness, but boldly faces
nd shaneS daylight and public decency.
-oud, vile language and indecent personal
are common 1T all hours, and
ct the virtuOus horror and pious indigna- n
ion Of these Psalm singing, morality ga. r II
Iians, seems not TO be excited. l. the Il
license Of official Indifference to shield these
'ase b9gnioS from official interference simp- "a
Y because they are the dens OF Negro wan Of
ons Ii maraii'y and religion is the in ~
piration of the aforesaid GOOD and Moral =
ty'' defenders, why not direct a part Of
heir ions and virtuous Legislation against
hese disgusting dens Of iniquityg G
THE NEw FIRM.-It will be seen bv

Holland and Mr.. J. Wnbon have formed
