Read the notice in another col
umn of to-day's paper, of Rev. NJ
Kelly, offering for sale or rent the
large and commodious building lately
used as a Catholic schoolhouse fot
boys. This is splendid building, and
no doubt bnt ready sale will be found
for it, as it is substantially constructed
and conld be easily moved to any
quarter of our town with but little
trouble or expense. We are sorry,
however, to learn that the meagre sup.
port offered Father Kelly by our citi.
zens, has compelled him to desist in
any further attempt to keep this school
running. Mr.. Drollar, the young
man who has had charge of this
school is a most excellent and clever
gentleman, and we regret his retire,
ment from the school room.
j. B. Suttles, Esq, of Leesburg,
Cameron parish, has been in town
during the past week in attendance on
our District Court, and dropped in to
pay his respects to the Echo. Mr.
Suttles reports crops in his parish as
being IN a fonrishing condition, and
the people generally, very much en-
couraged at the future prospects. Mr.
S. says what Cameron needs now,
more than anything else, is a newspa'
per, to bring immigration and capital
to her borders and help build up her
vast resources and cultivate the thou.
sands of acres of rich land that are now
lying idle for the want of labor to till
it. We agree with him, and would
say that nothing would build up Cam
eron SO readily as good newspaper.
Mr.. SuttIes left for home Friday
morning.
Mr.. 6. w. Corkran, one of the
Oldest and best citizens on Bundick's
Creek, paid rs pleasant visit the
past week, and we were glad to meet
him. He reports everything quiet in
his section, crops good, and health
never better. Mr.. Corkran tells US
that he raised an average of 40 bush
els of corn to the acre this year, on
an old field which had been in cultiva-
ton perhaps for the last 40 years.
Mr.. c. used to be farmer, but is now
engaged in merchandising, and we sup
pose this little crop of corn was raised
simply TO keep his. hand in. That's
right. Raise all the corn you can,
and all the hogs you can, just as long
as you can, friends, for there is moth
ing so good to have around the house
of rainy day as plenty of hog and
hominy.

structing us to go to the drug store of
Mr.. VIM. Meyer and get bottle of
DIR. Bosanko's celebrated Cough and
Lung Syrup and send same to Mrs.
Lucy Harper, at King postofice, Ran
kin county, Miss, who being sub
scriber to the Echo, saw DR.. Bosanko's
advertisements, and being aware of
the fact that we advertise no hum
bugs, and that our friend Meyer deals
in nothing but pure drugs, concluded
that BosaDko's Lung Syrup was the
very thing needed. Mr.. Meyer has
had demands from the interior of
Texas for this same medicine.
