SPLENDID ORDER.-The city authorities |
deserve unbounded praise for the good or
der maintained throughout the city during |
the holidays. Not single occurrence OF a /
destructive character Is to be recorded. The |
most perfect order was maintained through |
out the week.

ing in her sleep on Tuesday night, Snd was !
so badly burned that she died in few
hours after being rescued from the flames. |
A NOVEL FEATURE.-We call especial
attention to the card of Parker & Bro, in
this issue. II shows that Jackson has en-
terprising and moneyed men in her midst,
and that she can aud will secure the trade
Of this section. Messrs. Parker & Bro, are
reliable, prompt and accurate business
men, and eminently worthy Of large pa
tronage. Planters who want either to sell
or store cotton, should not hesitate to place
themselves in direct communication with
them.
ANOTHER MAN KIILED.-A Mr.. Hoolian,
a brakeman on Prewips freight train, NJ.
& o. II. r., while attempting to climb upon

L..
of his legs were broken in two or three
places, and bis LEFT arm crushed. lie then
fell upon the track and the train passed
over him, literally making mincc meat Of
his body.
A TRUTH.-Interiore cities are the crea-
lures OF Railroads. Not one was ever built
up by any other means. Nor will one or
two lines Of road suffice, as the history Of
the whole world amply testitics. To make
a city of an interior town, or TO keep it
steadily growing, it must first become
railroad center. Then manufacturing can
and will be established and commerce will
| dow on in ever increasing volume. Re-
mem Der this and vote for the Birmingham
! road.
