Adams and Kinds Counties to Have
A Misunderstanding.

The completion Of the railroad from
Natehez to Kinds is to Be celebrated as
our readers have seen By a cordial re-
union at Utica. II viii be a glorious oc-
casion. Warmly do we reciprocate the
generous spirit expressed in the follow
ing greeting Of our good brother Of the
Natchez Democrat:
The iron lie between Natehez and a portion
of Kinds county having been completed, it is
highly appropriate that our citizens should
/ take the initiative in forming more intimate
acquaintance with those with whom, both our
social and business relations viii, we hope. be
more intimate in future We are therefore re-
joiced to find that that representative body Of
citizens, the Adams Light Infantry. have re-
solved to make social invasion of the good
old county of Kinds The encampmeuL of
the Adams Light Infantry means more than a
simple military movement. 1t means the in
termingling Of the people Of NatcLez, with the
people Of Kinds county, and Of the country
all along the route of the N, J. s C. Railroad.
The excursion viii not be confined 10 the cit
izen soliiery of Adams county. but it will
doubtless be largely composed of the bust
ness men Of NatcheE, of those who are in
terested in making the Acquaintance of the
business men Of the adjacent county. and of
the ladies and gentlemen who have already or
who may wish to form social acquaintance
with section which will soon be portion of
our own community.
We therefore give notice to our friends of
the Utica and Raymond neighborhoeds that
they may expect an Eruption of as many of
the trains on the n, ]. & c. Railroad can pos
sibly accommodate.
They go to meet and form the acquaintance
Of the people of Kinds county, and we hope
there will be large number of the people of
that county to meet them and Interchange civ
ilities with them. Utica is the first town in
Kinds county which has been reached by the
railroad, and it is a precinct in which the
largest comparative vote was given in favor
of the subscription by Kinds county of its
bonds to aid in the construction of the road.
1t is eminently proper therefore, that the first
public meeting of the people of the two coun-
ties should occur at Utica.
We hope our old friend Harper, Of the Ray
mond Gazette will not only be present on the
occasion, but that he will urge every citizen of
the county to meet the visitors from Adams
county, and we also hope we may have the
pleasure on the same occasion, of meeting Maj
Barksdale and Col. Power, and brother Jayne
and Wilson, and others of the Jackson press,
! and as many as possible of the people of Jack
son. The bonds of fellowship and brother
hood between Kinds and Adams will grew
stronger and stronger as they grow better ac-
quainted As we have been a citizen of both
counties, and as our better half is native of
Kinds, as we are of Adams, we must confess to
a feeling Of more than ordinary interest in the
union of these two most important counties.
Our own citizens will turally take deep
interest in this first excursion to Kinds coun-
ty, and we predict that Natchez win have a
very large delegation of both ladies and gen
tlemen to visit the encampment of our citizen
soldiery, and to form acquaintance among the
people who will hereafter be almost part of
our own community.
