The Railroad Cases.

The argument of counsel in the
injunction suit of the Mobile & Ohio
Railroad, in the District Court in this
city, was concluded at late hour
on Wednesday evening the 10th inst,
which was finale of all the railroad
cases before that tribunal, the case
Of the Illinois Central having been
heard several days previous. Judge
HIPS opinion in the two suits will be
promulgated probably on Monday or
Tuesday OF next week.
These cases have probably been of
greater magnitude and Importance
than any that have been in the Mis-
sissippi Courts for years, and the de-
cisions and opinions of Supreme
Courts of nearly every State in the
Union have been overhauled and
carefully scanned and consulted by
the able counsel representing the
cause of the State and the interests
of the Railroad Companies. The
speeches and arguments of Hon.
Wiley P. Harris and Judge James
Fentress, for the Illinois Central, and
of Major E. L. Russell and Hon.
Peter Hamilton, for the Mobile &
Ohio, were masterpieces Of logic,
force, eloquence and legal learning,
and the fallacy and injustice of su-
pervision were made so plain by them
that even the unlettered were bound
to sympathize with their cause. Hon.
John w. G. Watson,an able and dis
tinguished member of the Holly
Springs Bar, and we believe, the
gentleman to whom the paternity of
the supervision law belongs, repre-
sented the State or the Board of
Commissioners, and, although his
side of the question had few sympa-
thizers among the people of this re-
gion, he made most gallant fight
and yielded n OF an inch of ground
without stubborn contest.
OF course we have no opportunity
Of ascertaining what will be Judge
HIPS decision in the matter until he
delivers it in court, but it is the opin-
ion of a majority of the attorneys in
attendance that he will grant the
injunction.

THE FIELDS.


Notwithstanding the hardness with
which farming operations began this
year, on account Of the continued rains
and unfavorable weather at the time
most OF the preparatory work is usually
performed for pitching the crops, the
farmers and planters in all portions of
the county are surprisingly 'well up
with their woik, and we do not hear half
of the complaint that WAS generally AT.
ticipated. In the prairies, although
about two or three weeks late, every
thing seems to be moving along finely,
and the'planters are, as a genera rule,
in good spirits, while in the uplands IN
the timbercd regions hardly any delay
in farming operations is noticeable. Ths
fuct is that while we had the most severe
winter for years, even though followed
by SO much rain, the soil was very much
loosened and mellowed by the freezes
and will not require the usual labor be-
slowed in cultivation.

A Big Day Among the COIOred
People.

Thursday, the 9th of May will be
a big day among the colored element
OF our population, and some arrange.
ments are being made to celebrate
it appropriately. They keep the 9Th
OF May in holy memory as the date
OF the emancipation of their race
from bondange, and whether they
are exactly correct about the matter
as to their freedom, as well as to
date, is just now immaterial, but it
is fact that they do not permit the
occasion to pass without some kind
of demonstration. The programme
arranged for the Sth in this city is
quite an attractive one and if fully
executed will make a real gala day
for the freedmen. A procession is
announced composed of the several
secret and benevolent societies; also
a contest at the Fair Grounds be.
tween fire companies; II base ball
match; shooting match; slow mule
race; fast mule race; foot race,
and various other sports aud enter
tanning amusements. Addresses are
also announced by NJ. NJ. Mcleod,
Judge Chandler, Capt. j, W. Lee
and others, which we presume will
be entirely of a non. political nature.

Make the Dentist III demand
OF all professions in the land,
For his skill alone preserves
From decay those tender nerves
Always liable to ache,
Thus how much distress they make
Dentistry should ever be
Encouraged, as it seems 20 me
Nor can another art lay claim
TO like esteem or do the same;

Sometimes found among us here,
This we may expect to tlnd--
All professions have this kind,
But a scientific man
Each preteuton You may sean,
Rest assured he'll stand the test
Doing always what is best;
Each practitioner should be
Ever careful that you see
No defective work Of his
Nor fail to show YOU what he is.

Although the Order of the Knights

that not a single one of the several
Castles suffered the loss of a member
in the recent riot in that city. This
was good news to Castle Gregg No.

were fearful of having to meet many

IL reporting the disastrous storm that
passed through the county last week,
We failed to mention that Mr.. b. P. Hol.
liday, whose plantation is in the vicinity
OF Prairie Station, was victim to the
extent of total loss of three or four tene,
ment houses and serious damage tomany
others, as well as to other property on
his place.
Mr.. Allan D. Cox, of Gladneyville, an
Aberdeen suburb, was also victim and
sustained loss amounting to something
over a hundred dollars, besides the un,
pleasantness of the occasion; three brick
chimncys to his residence and all his
fences were blown down, leaving him in
rather q bad plight for several days, as
his young crops were just beginning to
to grow finely and needed protection.
The report we gave did not purport TO
be at all a complete one, as there was
only few hours OF the day following in
which to derive information. and as the
storm extended over most of the county,
it was impossible to obtain data from
many sections that probably suffered
heavy loss of property.
