LEvEEs LIT. w. Nicol has
printed a letter in the lberyille
South in which he shows that the
amount annually expended on the
Levees during high water, would
build the Levees- 50 highland strong
that no. future dangers of overflow
would be dreaded.
The amount of money expended
during high water in the Mississip
pi river, not counting the losses by
overflow, would, in three years
timo build levees from Cairo to the
Gulf that would never give way IN
less through caving or negligence.
Yet people will not work their le
vees when it can be done efficiently
and cheap, but prefer to work in
high water, when ten dollars will
do less than one would, spent at
the proper time.

During the past, and for a por
ton of the present week, a hearse
could he seen moving at u slow
pace, and sometimes unattended,
through the streets of the town, in
the direction Of the Catholic Gene
terry. Each time, the. contents of
the hearse consisted OF an old fash
Toned metallic casket, covered with
rust. We III informed that these
collins came from the family vault
OF the Tucker family on Laurel Val
ley, and were removed to the GENE
terry at the expense of the present
proprietor of the plantation. At
the time the bodies were buried it
was never dreamed that the rest
ing place of the dead would ever be
disturbed, but. in the mutations Of
human events, the old homestead
passed into the hands of strangers.
and the remains of the dead had to
be exhumed. An elegant tomb has
been prepared to receive these re
mains, also at the expense of the
generous proprietor Of Laurel Val
ley.

years.
They now repcse quietly near
each other, where their remains
will rest in peace until time shall
have passed away. In their lite
times they were united in many
good and charitable deeds. In
death they are not separated.
This removal was consummatel
by the ladies' who had been his pu
pills in their young days. They
found the grave in which their late
beloved teacher was buried, neg
lected and being forgotten.
The charge of this pious work
was undertaken by the Misses
McNsir, who, by addressing circu
lars to the numerous pupils of the
deceased, succeeded in raising funds
sufficient for the removal and, per
haps, enough to place a tablet over
the new grave in which the body
of their teacher is finally deposited.
Mr.. j. S. Goode supervised the re
intermcnt of the remains.
