Roads.

From nearly all the surrounding country
we have information that unusual interest
has been taken in repairing the public
roads. This is as it should be. A people
who will not keep up their highways take
low rank in the estimation of the enlight-
ened visitor.
Among the repairs in this parish deserv-
ing mention are those on the river road
below, and on the road to Winnsboro. The
latter road has had 5000 puncheons laid and
eighty feet of bridging done on Bristle
ridge, so we are informed by the overseer,
Mr.. r. Endom.
1t is in contemplation to open at once the
new road from town to the DeSiard, short
ening the distance about one and quarter
miles. For this purpose the city has appro-
priated $500, and the parish $500. The
landed rroprietors interested will doubtless
aid the work literally. Messrs. Endom
and Sanders visited the Beuff bayou bridge
! and levee, on Wednesday, with the view o.
determining what aid was necessary tc
| repair the road at that point, for which
! work our business men and others have
contributed $500. They found the repair.
feasible, and will so report Over this road
! comes the very valuable trade of Gun
Swamp in Morehouse.
What the people in the hill portion of TIN
parish are doing with their roads we hav'
not heard, but doubt not they have beer
busy fortifying against the mud and rain
of winter

Novel R0ilPORllllle.

The partial overflow of the railroad to
Vicksburg has resulted in something
novel in railroading. We learn from
Major Green that in thirteen places on the
road, between Waverly and Tallulah, the
train is pulled through water deep enough
to extinguish the fire in the locomotive.
After passing through one of these sub
merged sections, the train is stopped, the
fire rekindled, steam raised, and with the
accumulated steam the train is driven
through the next water gap, and so on
through the thirteen Interruptions. This
has occurred for four or five trips, without
any trouble or accident moro than n delay
OF two or three hours in schedule time.
Along this portion of the road the water is
now on u stand, and will no doubt be fall
ing by to-day. This side of Delhi the over
flow, however, continues to rise, and it may
be that some of the bridges will have to be
ballasted, unless the rise ceases by Satur-
day.

The Picayunc gives the annexed account
of the deliberations of the State Central
Committee of which MIR. Mari is chairman,
at it's recent meeting. Thirty-oEe gentle
mon We're in attendance, mainly from New
Orleans:
The Democratic and Conservative MEM
bers of the State Central Committee con-
tinued their session III he hall over 'Stcvcs
House, No. rs Magazine street, last night.
The main question discussed was the
calling Ola Convention, and the time and
place for calling the same.
Various propositions were advanced and
discussed at length, so that it was Il late
hour before the line of policy to be pursued
was definitely marked out. The points OF
difference seemed to be, on the one hand
that the call fora Convention should be OF
such Il nature as not TO bind it to amy par
Jicular line of policy, but leave room for
any notifications that might become nee
| essary, and, on the other. that the orGani-
sis.
In order to bring the question /" an
issue, the following substitute I" II rcS"lu-
| ton ctllinga Democratic Convention was
adopted:
I;esotced. l. That this committee deems
| it inexpeLlient to call Il Convention, no
! eNiEency having occurred rendering it nee
esS:lry.
! =. That this committee at the proper time
| will call 4 Democratic State Convention to
| nominate candidates and to give the i'cnpl"
| opposed to ltadicalisln AN opportunity /"

The STABLE,

Cotton picking has begun III earnest all
through this section of the country, but
not enough is open to get in fun days
picking. The recent rains have been OF
little benefit, and We are told that the
crop is made. The average yield will be
much less than was expected. On thin
lands and in dry sections, the rust has
been worse than has been known for years.
Still, in some settlements we hear OF
places that will produce bale to the acre.
tits to be hoped the gathering season will
be prOpitiouS.
