A PHANTASY.
BY A SOUTHERN WOMAN.

A cloud darkened our fair southland. A
cloud of woe and desolation, for the dread
pestilence that walketh in darkness and in
the noon-day, was ravaging her happy
homes, tearing mothers from their children,
and children from their understanding
down, with the relentless scythe of death, the
old and young, the rich and poor. Every
heart was crushed, and despair reigned,
for gaunt famine followed in its foot>
steps; when 10 in the North, beams of
light arose, and white robed angel came
flying on the wings of love and mercy, with
golden gifts in her hands, and she cried in
voice of music cliff up your hearts,
ye stricken ones, Your northern brothers
have heard your cries and groans, and sent
me to minister to your wants, and pour
peace and consolation into your wounded
hearts. Never more shall fell discord break
the tie that binds you to your brethren, for
it is riveted with bands of gold and tears
of sympathy.

That true Irishmen never forget st.
Patrick Day is fact that our readers are
aware of, and we need not dwell on that
point. But as to how it was observed in
jackson is what we are about to relate. Mon
day was st. Patrick's Day, and early in the
morning might have been seen moving to
and fro, preparing for the parade, many
patriot sons of the Emerald Isle. The
procession was formed about 8 o'clock at
their hall, under the marshalship of Mr..
Mike O'Btien, who, with an elegant sash
across his shoulders, looked every bit a
marshal. They then proceeded to the
Catholic Church, accompanied by the
Jackson Silver Cornet band, where services
appropriate to the occasion were conducted
in an impressive manner by the Rev.
Father Picheret, after which the Associa-
Sion, in body, repaired to their hall where
President Cummins delivered an eloquent
address to the members. Mr.. Jno. L.
Hull, the orator of the day, also delivered
mdoIoIiy duuieSSj Ill WHICH, H6 dlluueu Ieel-
ingly to some of Iroland's great men, Cur
ran, Emmett, Burke and others. Messrs.
O'Brien, Capt. H. Barksdale and others
made appropriate responses to calls upon
them for speeches; after which refresh
ments were INDUCED in by all present.
General good feeling prevailed throughout
the day-not circumstance happened to
mar the pleasure of the occasion. To
those who labor under the impression that
and general disorder reigns
supreme on st. Patrick's Day, we will
state that we never saw single person
under the influence of liquor the entire
day. In fact everything passed off as
pleasantly as one could wish.
We were cordially invited to be present
by Mr.. Mike O'Brien, for which we return
hanks, but owing to pressing business en-
yageluents, we could not attend, which ac-
counts for our very imperfect notice.

The city treasurer the five hundred dollars
now collected belonging to the firemens'
fund, and the auditing committee were
continued with instructions to investigate
and ascertain the amount due each COM
pany. After the five hundred dollars is
drawn, the city will still be indebted to the
firemens' fund to the amount of about four
or five hundred dollars. As the companies
are not particularly needing the money,
and the city is now in debt to a consider
able amount, we would suggest that it
would be the handsome thing for our fre~
men to do to rebate the amount due, after
the $500, that is now in the city troasurer's
hands is distributed We make this as a
suggestion, after being informed that the
different companies are out of debt, and
not needing funds.

Homicide I'm TaIIahatchie.

DIR. Robert New, son of DR.. T. j. New,
was stabbed and killed last Monday even-
ing, by man named Taylro, at Swan Lake,
Tallahatchie county, as we learn, under the
following circumstances: About half an
hour before the killing Mr.. Jerre Robin
son, had rode past aud had some eonversa-
ton with DIR. New. After he left, DIR. New
commenced talking of the pun'ort of Mr..
Robinsons remarks-delibcratin as TO
whether they were intended rs good natur-
ed railery, or in a serious spirit Of fault
tinding Taylor, a disInterested party,
spoke up somewhat abruptly, accusing
New of striking Robinson with his riding
whip. This charge was denied, AID beiag
reiterated by Taylor, New knocked him
down, but made no further hostile demon
STATIONS toward him. Taylor got mp with
a knife in his hand, aud running up TO Do.
New, with single plunge inflicted fatal
wound in his side, from which he died in
few minutes.
Mr.. Taylor was the ferryman at Swan
Lake. We know nothing Of his history or
general character. 1t is but justice to him
to state, however, that on being arrested he
exhibited a cut on his person which he
claimed was inflicted by DIR. New, although
we understand the evidence will he that

Capt. Sam. Foitevent, the daring ant
dashing young boss of the Pearl rive
steamer, Sol. Hooker" surprised on
citizens week ago by landing his craft Al
the railroad bridge. He had made the run
from Monticello TO this point III two days,
distance of sixty miles by land, and two
hlndred by water, over which no steam
craft has navigated for the lust twenty years.
He says he met with no difficulty except
now and then an overhanging tree or limb
and he pronouncea the river ma igable for
steamboats,, and proved the fact by his own
experiment.
to go on to Carthage, but the strong bridge
built by the railroad, and the city bridge,
presented two formidable distractions, and
tho steamer could not pass under them
without taking down its smoke-stacks and
pilot house. 1t was decided to do this at one
time, and go on, and steps were taken to
carry out the project, but it was abandoned,
and on Tuesday last, the little steamer was
loaded with cotton from this landing, and
turned her course towards New Orleans.
The "Col. Hooker" is 12O feet long and
20 feet wide, strongly built, and shoots off
like an arrow. Her tonnage is four hundred
bales of cotton, and she can make the round
Trip from hero to New Orleans including all
landings, in about twelve days.
Capt. Poitevent has stirred up quite au
interest in the navigation of the Pearl, and
t jackson had the right to vote the $4,000
by Congress for cleaning out
Pearl river, he would get every dollar of it.
But he says he don't want any appropria-
ion. If the people along the banks of the
liver will only pledge him their patronage,
e will keep boat in the river, and clear it
ut too.
Such man in such work, deserves ell
and we think our people are S
isposed to extend it to him. e

We observe that few gentlemen are
sometimes addicted to smoking cigars in

think of the indelicacy and improperly of
such practice. Complaints have reached
us from ladies who have been made sick by
it. We are confident gentlemen and boys
need only be reminded of this matter to
correct their habits and if they do not do
so on their own accord it is the duty of the
manager to stop the practice, unless they
