It's an i'll wind that blows nobody
good. The present high water places
the bayou and lake leading from
Mound City to Marion in a navigable
condition so that small boats can get
up to that classic town. The owner
OF four thousand sacks of cotton seed,
not wishing to forward this large
amount by wagon to Mound City,
thence by boat to this city, proposed
to a steamboatman here to send up
one Of his boats and bring out the
seed. But the merchant at Mound
City, thinking this was robbing him of
a little business, has placed an obsta-
Gle in the way, Of a heavy chain across
the mouth of the bayou, and threatens
to shoot into the first boat which at
tempts to pass without his permission.
and the same can only be obtained
upon the payment of 500 by the boat
desiring to pass.
