''The Mississippi papers contain the an.
nouncement that Colonel McComb, Of
Credit Mobilier fame, has commenced -ope-
rations of a similar character on his own
account in that part Of the country. The
name of the Vicksburg, Ship Island and
Pensacola railroad has been changed to
that Of the Mississippi Valley and Ship
Island railroad, and is to have terminus
at McComb City, which is thus TO be built
up INTO a lourishing community. As a
matter of course, there is construction
company, called the Mississippi Valley
improvement company, which Is to com-
money from school fund, known as the
lost to the state by the folly of the legis-
lature, but has since been recovered by
the courts, and is now voted away, or
proposed to be voted away, for the benefit
of the construction company aforesaid"
