There is movement on foot in Jack
son in tangible form TO create a new
coun ty out of portion of Kinds, Ran.
kin, and Madison. Whatever may
happen to our neigh bors can always be
born with more equinimity than what
effects our own household. We are
10th to part with any portion of our
county territory, and are sorrowed to
learn through this action that some
CT our citizens are willing to leave us.
We were born in Madison county and
have full share of local pride and
attachment and would dislike very
much to be coralled into a new county,
unless there were some very urgent
and imperative reasons for such a
course. Our citizens near Jackson are
no farther from Canton than those near
Couparle or Flora the two extremes of
our county, and If segregation were to
be sought by these localities-which
could as plausably be done-we
would not have left the requisite 400
square miles for a county. These ques-
lions have to be submitted to the con-
templated sections for new county
and Of course. if the citizens favor it in
sufficient mum bers. we must part but
before this time comes we would like
for some of our readers residing 10 the
'disgrunteled" area of our county TO
give some reasonable and cogent
for such proceeding.

To the management of this road. that
portion of the Press of Mississippi who
enjoyed its courtesies on the trip to At
lanta, are richly due their fullest sense
of appreciation and thanks, not only
for the trip but for the courteous at
tention of its employees, and we feel
assured that each and every one will
reiterate this sentiment. Mr. Shipman
met us at Winona, and arranged our
transportation and accom- panied US on
the trip. He is an urbane, accomodat-
ing gentleman, and Jealous in the in.
terest of the company he serves. This
is substantiated by the token of esteem
and remembrance bestowed upon him
by the members of the Press at At.
lanta. This is the route we would rec
ommend passengers to take. 1t leads
through the rugged, mountainous por-
tions of north Alabama and Georgia,
which though barren of evidences of
agricultural prosperity along the road.
it passes through the mining regions,
evidences of which appear in numer-
Gus places. 1t passes deep chasms,
rock-ribbed cuts, tunnels and pictu-
rescue scenery that is enjoyable when
contrasted with the comparatively lev
el surface of our State.
