And in a voice as fresh and strong
As thine is, sing Il all day long
And hear it in my slumbers.

"A couple of sets of fve-pronged
deer horns were found on Tiger Greek,

was impossible to separate them. As
the skeletons were attached to the horns,

THE man who never failed is a myth Such
one never lived, and is never likely to. All
success is a series of efforts, in which, when
closely viewed, are seen more or less failures.
The mountain is apt to overthrow the hill !;
but hill is reality, nevertheless. If you fail
now and then, don't be discouraged. Bear in
mind it is only the part and experience of
every successful man, and the most successful
men often have the most failures.

three inches higher than the flood OF

measuring at foot Of our main street
about five feet deep; is in every BUSH

one, and in some nearly to top of the

that the water Is under it, and very
deep in some. There Is scarcely a foot
of land to be seen on the east bank OF
river below Rutland's place; fences all
gone, hogs and cattle persisted by hun
dreds, and the gnats are in a good way
to kill all the stock crossed to the hills,
The like Of gnats was never seen hero
| before.
have never witnessed so much dis
tress in NIL my life as see here now.
The hills west of our town are dotted
with camp fires around which are
grouped poor ragged women and chill
dren, with nothing to protect them
from the weather but t he few rags they
could bring out with them in the little
batteaux, and what is to become OF
many of these creatures the Lord only
knows.
Sunday evening at Lem Wade's
place, 10 miles below here, Floyd and
Martin Wade, and Allen Smith, ne.
groes, were all drowned in Wade's
field by the sinking of their batteau.
In your interesting article in the
TELEGRAPH May LIST, 1874, about the
overflow, in your concluding remarks
you said that no writer in the valley
would ever be called upon to record
the. like again. Now, you see what
happens at one time may, by the same
mbination of circumstances, happen
again, and with us in this part of the
valley worse thing is upon us. Let
us hope it will go no higher.
Yours truly,

cratic platform was menace not only
to the manufacturing, mineral and ag-
ricultural interests of the nation, but
also 70 the material prosperity of the
South. There was no principle in

The work of grading the road bed for
the Vicksburg, Shreveport and Pacific
railway was commenced yesterday
morning about twenty-five hundred
yards from the opposite bank of the
river, by the penitentiary convicts
under charge of Captain Sanchez, and
it was remarkable to see with what
rapidity the dirt was thrown up. AS
the plantation is level ON the opposite
side of the river, the working party
were in full view and many of our cit
liens visited the levee to take a squint
at them. Our reporter, as well as did
a large number of our citizens, crossed
the river in tho afternoon and were sur
prised to see the amount OF work done.
We did not wonder, however, as the
convicts work with a guard of armed
men around them and are not allowed
to stop and talk, but arc compelled to
move like machinery. They commence
work shortly after daylight In the
morning and continue till about $3.50
in the evening, which gives time for
supper and to place them in their
quarters about dark. All of them sleep
in plank house constructed for this
purpose, which is surrounded by q
strong guard at night, and there is
very little chance of escape. The gang
at work opposite town consists of 1874
men, only 10 of whom are white. We
learned from Capt. Sanchez that the
22OO yards between the river bank and
the place of starting would be filed in
as soon as the scrapers came. The
gang at present is working with wheel
barrows, 81 of which are kept con-
stant1y going and it is remarkable the
amount of dirt thrown up.
