We had the pleasure of visit from Commo-
dOre Jas. 5. Wise, superintendent of the Mem
phis and Cincinnati packet company, yester-
day morning. The best evidence of his stand
Jog at home is the fact that he was but recent
ly elected treasurer of his county, a public
trust that could have been placed in no more
worthy hands.
Captain James s. Wise, of Cincinnati, one
of the delegates to the railway convention
here, is one of the ablest friends Memphis
has in the convention. He regards, and
properly, that the interests of Cincinnati and
Memphis are Identical, and both cities are
equally interested In having the eastern
terminus of the Southern Pacific railway
fixed at Memphis. The old commodore's head
was always level.
The following, from the Helena World, of
Tuesday, looks somewhat as if the Mary Bell
James Howard packet line had cut Memphis
off and established I" the run between
Helena and New Orleans. VIII Captain Wash
ington explain these paragrahs: "When such
men as Captain B. K, Pegram and ]. Frank
Hicks think OF putting their mammoth
steamers, James Howard and Mary Bell, in
the trade between this place and New Orleans
we may consider that the outside world looks
upon us with an eye of pride, and we must
even congratulate ourselves. When the next
season comes around other large vessels will
be asking for our trade in the product that
goes south and the merchandise which comes
to uS.......The steamer James Howard will
take away from here about 5000 bales OF cot
ton. This shows up well for a country town.
We keep going forward as the years go by;
and will be city after awhile. Already the
head of navigation and that soon they must
make us their shipping place"
