LOWRY ISLAND.

Such is the name given TO Il tract
of marsh land, covered with marsh
grass, water aud alligatOrS near
the mouth of the Pasca.Oula river
10 this county. The name doesn't
mean anything, at least hardly any,
but the circumstance attending the
naming OF the baby do mean a
little something. The State of
Mississippi had it named and gave
S2,872.23 to have it done. These
lands Tor water) will aggregate
about 1870 acres, and are not
worth more than about 10 cents
per acre, or $1,317.90 total, aud,
therefore, have cost the State ST.
554.33 more than they are worth.
There is a specimen OF the beauti-
tul red tape work of the Admins.
tratiOn. At that rate it cost over
20 cents per acre TO make the sur.
vey. The tract in question lies in
a body about seven miles~iong and
three miles vile, or twenty miles
aretnd, not including the meander.
lngS, which must have been some
thing awful, as it cost the round
sum of $143.61 for each mile sur.
veyed.
Now, this is the way the State
did it. We are informed that about
one-third of this land, including
the best portion, had been surveyed
prior to this at a total cost of $62,
and that an experienced surveyor
OF this county once proposed to
survey it all for the sun of $500,
and expected to make money by 1t.
But that is not all about this sur.
vey. II was about the same time
that 1T was discovered that there
was not sufficient money in the
treasury to meet expenses, aud it
became necessary to issue bonds
under the act of March 10, 1884.
One of the surveyors negotiated
hose bonds, when the year was far
spent, which drew interest relating
back to January l, 1884. So We put
hlngs together thus: The enorm.
'us expense of the survey exhaust.
d the treasury and it was then
upplied by an issue OF bonds at a
surious rate of interest. This is {
ne instance OF the extravaganza of !
he Administration. :

0. S. COURT AT MERIDIAN.

Capt. J. w. Fewell, of the Ne
ridian Bar, is now in Washington
in the interest of the proposed new
q. s. Court at Meridian. In this
connection we uOte the fact that
Judge Van Eaton wants "a new
District with a Court located on the
South Coast of the State, and Gen.
Tom Catshings proposes to make a
fight for one at Vicksburg, while
Major B%arksdale will doubtless
exert his energies and active efforts
to prevent these gentlemen, or any
of them, from tearing up and par
ceiling ont the territory belonging
to the Court at Jackson. However,
we do not see any reasOn just at
present to anticipate much building
up or tearing down in United States
Court or Court house business in
Observation-Disclosures Examiner.
You are doubtless getting things
rather mixed. Judge Van Eaton
and Capt. Fewell are not apt to be
at loggerheads in espousing the
common cause of East and South
Mississippi tor an increase of their
Federal Court facilities. We do
not, on the other hand, readily ac.
cept the idea that Gen. Tom Catch.
ings will, in advocating the claims
of Vickshurg, throw any obstacle
IN the way of East and South Mis-.
slssippi. We hope, too, that Major
Barksdale is misjudged. He must
know that We are suffering for want
of Federal Court cOnveniences, aud
looking at it in that light opposition
from him would be very uubecom.
