If there is any idle capital hereabout'
anxious for good investment, We suggest the
erection of Paper Mill on the banks OF
Pearl river. There are only one or two inIthe
South, and they have more orders than they
can FILL The waste material of which paper
is made, is lying about in great abundance.
The paper on which THE CLARION is printed
is made at Manchester, Tenn, but we would
prefer to purchase even nearer home.
The announcement of Mr.. Stedman
that be would close out his bushes in Jack
son by the first of January, has been read
with regret by his many friends, especially
those who happened to know that it is in
consequence of failing health. During the
years that he had resided among US, he has
been progressive merchant, public spirit
ed, liberal citizen, genial, companionable
gentleman. We hope he may long be spar
ed, and that his business may be resumed
in the near future.
The Green boys are sustaining the rep
ntation Of their honored sires as progressive,
enterprising citizens. Mr.. Geo. S. Green
has been for several years the accomplished
accountant and general manager of Pearl
River Foundry. Mr.. J. J. Green has invested
a handsome capital in the Pearl River Oil
Mills, which is a growing success, Mr.. A.
A. Green has just established Fertilizer
Factory, and now if another will step to the
front and rebuild the cotton factory that
Sherman destroyed, Jackson will become the
manufacturing city that her central position
and transportation facilities indicate that
she ought to be.
-Messrs. W L. Nugent and j. P Ste
vens have purchased, for $500, the old
Bliad Asylum property for the very laud
obe object of converting the same into
high school for boys. There is nothing
more needed, and but few things that could
add more to the prosperity of our city.
There are score or more of our boys in
schools in other States who should be edu- |
Gated at home, or at least prepared for the
University or College. We have several
excellent female schools, and with a first |
class high school for boys, parents who have
boys and girls of school age will be attract |
ed to Jackson as place of residence. We
hope the high school will be put in operation
forthwith.
We have been honored with calls, since
last ISSUE from Gen. S. D. Lee, President A.
& NJ. College; Col. E. d. Frost, former Su-
of the New Orleans, Jackson
