The vestry of st. Luke have pur-
chased the property adjoining and in
the rear of the church, TO be used rs
the residende of the Rector. The
good taste and judgement shown in
this is obvious, and the location will
commend itself as in every way prop
err. Whether parishioners or others
wish to see the Rector he will thus be
more readily found, than when the
rectory and church are far apart; and
he will be spared much of the discom-
fort of repairing to service through
the inclemency of weather.
The'plank road embankment known
as Campbelps levee, extending for a
mile across,the fiat of the Forked Deer
River, and west of Jackson, has been
repaired at a heavy outlay for labor
and material, and seems to be ready
for the winter and spring travel be-
tween our city and the western part
of the county. This levee presents
the appearance OF a heavy railroad
fill, and extends through "a dense wild
erness of timber, cane and brush
wood, broken here and there by the
channels and sloughs of the river.
Near the crossing of our two great
railroads, viii be observed two white
posts with figures on them: one on
the Mobile & Ohio, and the other Oh
the Chicago Extension. That on the
former indicates the distance from til,
seaport of Alabama, the latter, The
number of miles from Canton, Miss
We were posted as to these results b,
a polite attache of the stesm-car pas
senger Office. The ''mote troubles on
minds eye" no longer.
