A Mystery.

1t is certainly singular fact that
though we have in our local trade,
one of the best packets on the Mis-
sissippi river, the Steamer Coahoma,
with courteous and efficient gentle
men in charge of her, that any small
boat, with scarcely any accommoda-
tions, can come into our trade, with
no intention of remaining longer than
the cotton season, and get large
share of our business. We remcm-
Der when the Frank Forrest ran in
this trade that there was one univer-
sal cry for good boat, one that
would make good time, and carry
passengers in comfort,and have ca
pacity sufficient to carry our cotton
and other freight. Finally in answer
to that demand the celebrated Lee
Line put the Osceola Belle and after
ward the Coahoma in, for while all
went well, everybody was satisfied,
her officers were not only courteous
gentlemen, but thoroughly under
stood their business. But after a
while an old tub came in when the
cotton season was at its height, and
by carrying cotton little cheaper
than the Coahoma, (which proposes
to stay with us all the year round,)
divides the trade. The result can be
easily seen. When the cotton sea-
son is over the aforesaid tub, will
seek other fields and pastures, and
the owners of the Coahoma finding
no money in the trade, will also seek
a trade and people who can appre-
ciate first class freight and passen-
ger packet, while we will be left
to the tender mercies of the Anchor
Line, and the days when we can have
a "boat as is a boat regularly land
ing at our town, and at the Other
landings between here and Memphis,
will be thing Of the past. This is
a matter worthy of consideration, and
we hope our shippers will give the
subject careful thought.

The Blamed Fools.

When Davy Crockett was mem
Der of congress he was sitting one
day in a hotel toasting his feet, when
a senator from Massachusetts, entered,
Approach ing the old frontiers-man
the latter said:
a large procession of your con-
stituents are marching up the street,
you ought to go out and greet them. "
Crockett hurriedly rose and went
out upon the hotel steps when a
large drove of mules passing by
caught his eve. He quietly watch
ed them until the last one had pass
ed, and then returned to his seat by
the stove. The Massachusetts sena-
tor was still there and as the redoubt-
able Davy dropped into chair,
asked:
"Well, did you see your friends?"
"Oh, yes" was the response,
/" They look remar kably well too. "
aid You ascertain their destina-
tion?n
"Certainly, sir"
"And where were they going in
such a solid body"
Crockett turned to the senator
with a calm expression, and replied;
"The blamed fools were all going
down To Massachusetts to teach
school"
And they gazed into each others
faces and sadly walked up to exer-
else the barkeeper awhile.
