ing been called to it before hand.

From present Indications we
need not expect any immediate
relic. from Congress in the matter
of removing the bar ut the mouth
of the Pascagoula River. We may
hope for an appropriation for that
purpose eventually but it will prob.
ably be delayed for sometime yet
owing to various difficulties always
surrounding such measures. We
feel assured that nj Representa-.
tive, Judge Fl. S. Van Eaton will
do what he a for us aud we trust
he may succeed, but we must wait.
We learn that the schooner
Indianola, Capt. John Bloom, which

for CienfugOs, Cuba, has not yet
been heard from. The In-
dianoIa was loaded with lumber
by w. Denny s. Co., OF Moss Point,
and should ere this have made the
round trip. Capt. Bloom is u OF
the most successful navigators en-
gagged ia our coast trade, and we
trust he has met with no serious
misfortune.
