Much fear was felt that the sub
sidence of the water would be fol-
lowed by plague of buffalo gnats,
and a few of the species, known as
turkey gnats, aud smaller and
much less troublesome than the
buffalo variety, have made their
appearance, hut fears OF the buffalo
gnat are now allayed. The tur-
key gnat is to the buffalo gnat as
chicken pox to small pox, and
both varieties disappear with the
coming of hot weather.

THE M'LAURIN IUNTA.

nameless sssemblage gathered in
Greenville, and after many hours
of secret communion, announced
to the world that they" had Sc
lected the Hon. Pat. Henry, of
Vicksburg, to be the successor of
Mr.. Catchings as the representa-
tive of this district in Congress.
1t has since been asCcrtained,
through the recognized organs of
MCLaurinism in the district that
they were Representatives of
Democracy" from all the counties
in the district. This is well, for
the Greenville public was at a loss
on Friday to know what the stran-
gers IN our gates did represent ;

Hot News and Cold Facts,

"Hot news and cold facts from frig'd
country" might well be the heading Ior
the reports from the Klondike region
published in the Boston Journal. The
journal has a notable speci 1, representa-
tive bound for the gold country in the
person Of Frederick Palmer, who won
wide recognition during his service as a
newspaper correspondent at the front in
the recent war between Turkey and
Greece. In Mr.. Palmer are happily COM
bined the two important qualities Of
enterprise in getting the news in spite of
every obstacle and reliability in state
ment, made possible by his skill in sitting
the grains OF truth from the mass Of ru-
mors. Everything that can aid in secur-
ing the news OF the events in that coun.
try Of interest, fascination and adventure
is at Mr. Palmer's command. His re-
ports will be the means of getting con-
stantly the latest authentic information
to Boston Journal readers of the trials,
dangers, failures and successes of the
gold seekers. No other Boston paper
will have MIR. Palmer's services.
