THE OUTLOOK.

The prospects for good crops i'll
this section are excellent. The
danger of damage from overflow Is
is past; there is more land in than
at any time since the war, and the
weather is very favorable. A pro
minent captain in the Anchor Live
says every available foot of land
between this city and Memphis is
in cultivation. Capt. Joe Stevens
has the same to say of Sunhower
river and Deer creek. And the
Yazoo and Tallahatchie valleys are
not one whit behind. This is cheer
ing news. This city and the sur
sounding country have never recOv
cred from the panic of eighteen
months ago. Then following the
panic there was a light crop caused
by the long drouth of last year.
The corn crop was very short. The
only redeeming feature is the eco
nJmy that has been praticed in all
brances Of industry. Now if the
good prospects of the present are
realized the hard times will be over
for long time to come. 1t is too
early now to make any estimates,
but all the signs up to this time are
extremely favorable. This is
very important Vicksburg

neighbordood OF La Pana, burned
that and four other ranches, and
coming in on this direction. VIM.
Hale, a passenger in the stage from

five or forty Mexicans approaching
that rancho, robblng and burning
hOusesas they came. All cOmmuni

vile is cut off. Tie wires supposed
to be destroyed. Firing was heard
at Baregas last nj ht, beyond Santa
GeOtrudes. Everybody there is I'M

courier reached this city last night
calling for help. alarm bells were
rang, and Captain Reynou Clark
and cavalry have started to meet
the raiders. They have also sent
word to Banquette, and Neuces.
The country is aroused. This band
will probably turn back when they

MoNEY.ORDER RATES

MONEY-ORDER RATES There
has been a change made in the mon
ey order rates, which is to take effect
on..the LIST of July next, and which
probably is not know to most peo-
pie. 1t seems that by the present
low rates the money order depart
ment has lost a large sum Of money
annually. Only five cents has been
charged tor sums less. than $40,
which includesIabout' seven.eighths
of all the orders issued. and by this
rate, it is calculated, that this de
partment has annually lost 8 100, 900.
The new law fixes the rates at ten
cents for any sum up to fifteen dol
lars, fifteen cents for sums from fif-
teen dollars to thirty dollar, twenty
cents for sums from thirty to forty
dollars, and twenty-five cents for
sums above forty dollars, and not
exceeding fifty dollars. 1t is thought
that these rates will Increase the
revenue from this source to the same
extent that it has heretofore been
decreased.

COUNTY SUPsRINTENDENTS.

We call attention to another very
important decision by the Supreme
Court of the State. The first point
decided is the term for which Coun-
ty Superintendent are to hold
The Court decided that, that office
is for two years only, and does not
extend beyond that period or until
the successor is appointed and
qualified. 1t must absolutely ter
inmate at the expiration OF two
years.
The second point is as to the
qualifications fixed by the act April
1873, wherein superintendent are
required to appear before a Board
of their Examiners, to be appointed
by the Circuit Judge aud the Chan
ceilor OF the District, and the Presi-
dent of the Board of Supervisors OF
the county respectively, and no ap>
pOintment made without such tx
animation is valid. 1t follows,
therefore, as a matter of fact, that
every SUPPLEMENTARY in the State
is vacant, as the statue in this par
ticular has been disregarded by the
State Board, and no examinations
have been required. - Vic&sburg
