The contract for building the New
Orleans and Meridian Railroad was
let out on the 9th, of May. The
work will no doubt be done as rapidly
as possible. Its completion will give
thorough line from the Crescent
City to Cincinnati, materially add to
the Importance of Meridian and prac-
tically lay Mobile on the shelf When
the Natchez line is completed to this
city no time should be lost in pushing
it right through to Columbus. The
New Orleans and Meridian, and
Natchez and Columbus lines would
open up such an immense percentage
of the remaining dormont resources
of our wealth, that we would soon
begin to realize the true greatness Of

On one occasion Bowie whose repu
tationsAad reached Memphis, arrived
by boat at that city. or rather at what
what was then known as the Third
Chickasaw Bluffs. The bank from
the boat landing TO the ton was about
one hundred and fifty feet high, and q

Bowie came slowly up the bank. In
his hand he carried an old umbrella.
He had no pistols, and was evidently
not expecting or i'm fact prepared for n
fight. This fact did not escape the
now thoroughly interested spectators.

GENERAL JAIL DELIVERY.
Every County Prisoner Confined In
this city Non Est Inventus.


Last Tuesday night, about 10
o'clock, while both the city and coun-
ty keepers were absent from the Jail
house, two prisoners, (Wm. Rollins
and one Smith), managed by some
means 10 saw or the bolts of their
door with case-knife. This gave
them access TO the room where were
kept the keys Of the cells. These
they procured and liberated Cotton
Eyed Bob, and together they made
good their escape right from the very
heart of our clty-so good that neither
of them have yet been rearrested.
The prison here is used for both city
county purposes. The city prisoners
were in the lower part of the building,
and none Of them escaped. Consider
ing the carly hour Of the night when
all this occurred, it is presumed the
work of cutting the bolt had been
going on deity for several days pre-
vious to this.succcssful escapade.
