The Vicksburg, Shreveport and Pacific
has just gained by the supreme Court
400 OUO acres of land along the line of the
road in this State. This land was donated
to the road by the Government with the
understanding that the road was to be
built within len years. The road not be-
ing entirely completed at the expiration of
ten years, the idea prevailed among the
people that the land was forfeited, and
many people settled upon it. This deei
sion in the Sledge case settles the matter,
and now large number of farmers must
make the pest compromise possible with
tbs road. or else give up their settlements

Jephson prisoners in daily expectation Of

LET all the tears that should bedew my hearse
Be drops OF balm to sanctify thy head;
Only compound me with forgotten dust;
Give that which gave thee life unto the worms"
How often in any given matter vitality
affecting our interests are we the last persons
to hear the news that principally concerns
ourselves
Capt. Denison's experience proved an illus
tration of the truth of this remark. When
he consented to a separation from his wife
at York, he lost no time in making new
plans He stayed one night at his house in
Cavendish street, Having disposed of his
gaming tables TO broker and placed the
house In the hands of an agent, he left next
day by the night mail for Paris en- route for
Monte Carlo.
He remained in Paris nearly week, in
dulging III his favorite amusements. he
met no one whom he knew, and he did not
trouble to read an English newspaper. The
onlv papers he was ever known to patroniz9
were the organs entirely devoted TO sport,
and these, even if he had consulted them,
would have conveyed 10 HIM no Informs
ton of the sudden and unlocked for change
that had taken piece in his prospects. 1t
thus came TO pass that he left Paris for
Monte Carlo in ignorance Of the turn in for
tunes wheel that had made him heir TO one
of the oldest baronetcies in England and to
vast estates, with the prospect OF almost
immediate possession.
Capt Denison might have remained in
this state Of ignorance but for an accidental
rencontre with Lord Algy Fitzherbert On
the evening Of his arrival at Monte Carlo
Capt. Doaison entered the Casino for pre-
liuinary survey of the happy hunting
ground where he had often won and lost
heavily, by turas. He had just plauked
NAPOLEON on ''the red" by way OF consult~
ing the auguries, to ascertain whether the
luck was with aim, when his attention was
attracted by a stranger who was standing
