JACKSON, MISS, June 6.-Since my

in supposing Musgrove to be the author
of the AK" letter, and viii here say that
Colonel Thompson and myself are old
acquaintance, etc. Nevertheless, my
mistake served its purpose in keeping
all these modest men before the public.
There was big demand for the APPEAL

Wire-netting for plastering is being
rapidly introduced to take the place of
laths. 1t takes less labor to place on
the walls, is more continuous, and will
not burn. Coarse netting, with one
inch mesh, and made of strong wire,
is found to answer best. For Ornamen-
tai cornice work it is especially valu-
able, for it can be bent into any desired
form. Secured to iron studding in a
brick building, our greatest danger on
account of fire would be removed. A
still further application of this plan is to
make round bags of wire, resembling
barrels, to coat them inside and out with
cement. When it hardens they resem-
ble stone barrels. Filled with sand and
sunk in rows anu masses, they make ex-
cellent building material for break
waters. Another extension OF the idea
has been tried with success in England.
1t consists in making iron-framed build
ings, covering them with the wire net
ting, and spreading eoncrete on both
sides. 1t is claimed that a house-walls,
floors, roofs, doors, partitions and all
has been built, that is strong, firm, and
absolutely incombustible, Various ap-
plications of the use of wire-nettng
and plaster cement, readily sugges
themselves, and the matter is worthy o
the attention of mechanics and builders

] have not had much opportunity to
inspect growing crops beyond what
small patches are growing up in the inn
mediate vicinity of my farm, but there
the corn is growing beautifully. Cotton
has been brought to a stand and dirt
thrown to it, and is looking well. So
much rain, of course, keeps the grass
growing and the hoes at work.

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1873-12-18
The Black Crook.

Speaking of the Black Crook combina
tion, shortly to appear at the Academy of
Music in this city, the Savannah Republican
says:
The "Black Crook was received last
night with an enthusiasm which it we'll
merited and thoroughly deserved. All who
are delighted with graceful dancing, elegant
posturing and the thousand beauties of form
and figure which can be brought out BY the
combinations and figures OF the ballet with
out in the slightest degree transcend.ng the
bounds of mOdesty or strict prOpriety, can
not fail to be delighted with the entertain
ment presented to them at the Academy.
Those also who were enraptured with the
grand old style of strong melodramatic
acting will find their tastes catered to:
those who like good songs, sung by pleasant
voiced young ladies and accompanied by
an orchestra which thoreugly knows its
work, will go away highly pleased; those
who delight in fine scenic illusions, and all
etfect-in short, all persons who enjoy q
good melodrama, admirably performed can
not fail to be highly entertained by Bidwell
& McDOnOugh's Black Crook Company.
Of the comic portions OF the play itself, it
is little to say that they we're excellently
done and provocative of that hearty ap-
plause in the shape of uproarlOus laughter
which is the comic actors most grateful
need. The interpolated comic scenes in
trOduced by NJ. Hernandez and troupe were
received with shouts of laughter, demands
