The body of an unknown white man
was found floating in the Mississippi
river at Devall's Postoffice, West
Baton Rouge parish, on the night of

years of age; had black hair, was clean
shaved, had low forehead, high cheek
bones and square jaws; of stature about
5 feet inches high; teeth tobacco
stained; dressed in grey flannel shit;
heavy number Z boots, aud had on his
person single action 32 calibsr pistol.
From general appearances he seemed
to have been hoatman, and we pub
lish this for the information of our

The Natchezs Banner has the follows
ing to say in regard to new inven-
ton that will interest all cotton plans
ters:
Mr.. John p. Nottingham Of our city,
has applied for patents for two inven-
tions of his that we think will in the
near future enrich him. One of the
inventions is the car coupler we referred
to in former Issue, the other is a
cotton carrier and hopper and cotton
seed conveyer combined that will effect
a great saving in ginning, both in labor
and material. Mr.. Kettcringham has
secured The co operation of a practical
business mau and capitalist to aid him
ia bringing his inventions before the
public. We have examined both the
models, and believe that they come
fully up to what is claimed for them
by The Inventor, ard that his bank
accounts will be largely increased
Through mis- inventive genius.

The Vicksburg Herald is of TIE
opinion that good levees that afford
protection are extremely beneficial in
raising the price of farming lands, and
it points to the fact that the system OF
Ievees in what is known as the Greens
vile Levce District is positive proof Of
this fact. 1t concludes ns follows:
They have proved in the face of the
severest tests of two decades, that the
Mississippi Valley can be protected
from inundation. II that can be done,
no one will doubt that the navigation
can be improved, until the great river
will be the cheapest way of transport
ing freight and the natural outlet of the
great area of country ii drains" That
the Herald is correct on this subject
can hardly be denied and we hope
that journal will continue to labor
assidiously in the future as it has done
in the past and is now doing, to gain
the great object sought 10 be attained
and we will say right here that the
TELEGRAPH will chime in and aid the
good cause to the best of lis ability.
