THE PROFESSIONS.

Jackson has a fine medical fraternity,
which numbers such men as NJ. S. Craft.
At the head OF the profession in surgery are
NJ. 5. Boyd, p. L. Bailey, Writ Johnston,
Geo. X. Harrington, J.,F. Hunter and
Chas. Morgan, with DR.. Craft, form corps
surpassed, perhaps, by no other as success
full practitioners. AS the seat of the Cir
cult and Supreme Courts of the State, and
the United States District and Circuit
Courts, ii naturally has a very able and
distinguished bar. There are Wiley P,
Harris, w. l.. Nugent, David Shelton, T.
ston, Jas. Il. Yerger, j. B. III. Hemingway,
L. Brame. The State Library ranks as the
third in the United States, and is the
second best law library.
There are three staunch Democratic
papers. The Carton, established in 1887,
BY S. Il. Adams, at Paulding, but for
many wears now issued at the Capital, has
long been a Democratic standby. Col, ].
l.. Power, one Of the best business men In
the State, is its proprietor. Then come
the Men NissiSsippian and Ledger, younger
papers, but both faithful to the cause and
ably conducted.
There are several good hotels in the city,
though often on certain occasions they are
all packed to overlooking, and but for the
many private boarding houses could not
accommodate the transient public. Chief
among these are the Edwards House, the
Lawrence House and the Spengler House
The two former are located near the depot
Mr. Lawrence Fragiacomo has recently had
his house overloaded and reftied with new
furniture, new carpets, new Eeddins.. and
everything is clean and fresh and inviting
