We several days since made men,
ton of the fact that the bondholders of
the Vicksburs, Shreveport and Texas
railroad would meet in Macon, Georgia,
for the purpose of discussing the ques-
ton of buying in the road when it is
offered at public sale. w. II. Wise,
Esq, wrote to Mr.. jackson, a large
bondholder and, We believe, attorney
for the bondholders, asking him for in
formation on the subject and stating to
him that the Red River and Missis.
sippi company would do all in their
power to aid them in the completion of
the line if they should conclude to buy.
Mr.. Jackson's reply was very encour-
aging, and upon its receipt n meeting
of the directors of the II. II. and Nj.
road was called who appointed Mr..
Wise a delegate to the Macon conven-
ton. He left here on his mission last
week and yesterday Mr.. Currie re-
ceived the following dispatch from
him:
MACON, GA, June 8, 1879.
A. CURRIE-The bondholders are
largely represented here. From con-
vcrsations with most of them 1 am
satisfied they will buy. We are all
right. The convention is now in SEES
sion. w. H. WISE.

The U. s. snagboat o. G. Wagner
arrived from New Orleans Monday
evening. She went below Tuesday
evening and will remove all obstruc-
tons rs sho passes down. The follow
ing are her officers, J. Straszer, Cap
tain T.. S. Austin, pilot J. II. Dor
sey clerk, James Moore, mate. There
are twelve laborers on her. The U. S.
Government has appropriated $4,000
toward the improvement of the Qua
chita, and the Wagner will be employ
ed until next Fall with her dental
operations. BY the by, Captain,
there's pretty bad obstruction in
front Of the city, just north of Bry 4
Muir's mill, and should you come
back this way we suggest that you
have it removed.
The John Wilson after having re-
mOnatrated with several incongruous
sand bars, and employing the Little
Bob B., as Il lighter, finally arrived
here Tuesday evening. But she didn't
bring all the Monroe freight after all.
She left 1875 bundles cotton tics below
for Monroe, consigned to one firm,
which the Bob B., will bring up to-
morrow. Capt. Fred Blanks was in
command, and Capt. Joe Holmes
clerk. Had Capt. Holmes stepped OFF
the Wilson she would have been con-
aiderably lightcned, and may not have
had so much trouble with the sand
bars. Another item of the Wilson'S
freight for this place was so sewing
machines making 100 that she has
brought here in the past two weeks.
The Jimmie Baker, from New Or
leans, arrived abont l o'clock yestcr-
.lischarging and adding quite literally
here. She left ut O'Clock yesterday
morning for Bayou Bartholomew
Capt. r.. ID. Marble in command.
The John Howard left New Orleans
Wednesday,, in place of the Wilson,.
She telcgraphed to her agent, that
he should notify the Little Bob B., to
meet her below here.
The Merchants sWharfboat and
Transfer Co. has purchased barge,
which is now ut the mouth of Red
river, l3O feet long and 40 feet wide, on
which they will have Il roof, put and
use as II wharfboat at this place.
We had hoped that when Monroe
got another wharfbOat it would be one
worthy of the name. We have how
ever deceived ourself, out as this one
will be better than none, we will be
content with this sscrumb of cOmfort.'

completion of this road, and that this
cannot be accomplished unless both

they should contemplate an infraction
of their rights, or presume for II
