Another Letter.

some few issues back | put a
piece IN the Herald concerning the
State SenatorShip from this district.
aud III this letter requested our
citizens TO let us hear from them on
this subject, but as no reply has
yet appeared take the liberty my
self to suggest Mr.. j e. Aluer-
man, OF Leakesville. | believe Mr..
Alderman would make US a good
Senator, and if the good voters OF
Greene county will come to the
front and do their duty, | predict
that we can have the honor of say
ing that we sent a good man to the
State Senate from old Greene couu.
ty one time, for | am sure the other
counties in the district will support
our man, knowing that we have
this right. Ii. NILS.

Interesting Letter From X. X.

Editor Herald-After an absence of
two months we are again spendiuga short
while with the widow, who, we imagine
was tickling in her sleeves at the thought
OF our return yet being in the far distant
future, but who feigned the purest de
night and gave MS a royal greeting on or
arrival; and now she affects great sorrow
and eutreats MS not to leave when we in
torn her that our stay can only be trans
itory. every sweet has its bitter" and
vice versa, every bitter has its sweet.
How sad AID heart-rendering it is to have
to part from our beloved under the cir
cumstanccS that forced us away, but then
how sweet, and what a joyous reunion
when we are again restored to her bosom.
Never were the halcyon days of corTtship,
or those of the sweet honeymoon, more
purely delightful. We found the widow
progressing nicely with her school, and
with well filled pantry She has several
times intimated that she wanted "A new
dress, inasmuch as the old one was too
small, and the young lady, her associate
in the school whom we left with her has
gained considerably in aVoirdupois; 50 we
take it for granted that they have Jared
quite well in our absence.
The weather has been very rough on the
waters here for the last several days, and
| fear many of the poor sailors will meet
! with rough voyages. One schooner load
] ed by Denny 81 Co, and bound for Vera
Cruz, has been lost with its crew and
cargo. Another vessel from Mobile, laden
with supplies for our merchants stranded
gu island and was reported to have
! gone to pieces, but has since been heard
from and is O. K. Rumors are current of
numerous other vessels that have been i'll
fated, and only parts of the crews sur
vived to tell the sad story of ga ship in a
storm
The mills here are all running at full
blast-some day and night-and logs and
timber are in good demand. We are glad
to see this. as all Southeast Mississippi
will derive some benefit from this boom.
and we trust it will not he spasmodic,
| but 81 genuine enduring revival Of the
| lumber business
Our people here are enthusiastic over
the prospects of the extension of our
dummy line to Ellisvile at an early day.
Capitalists are now being interested in
| this matter, and we trust the good people
Of Greene county will give them ali pos
sible encouragement and do all in their
! power to further the project.
And now, Mr.. Editor, this will be the
last time you will hear from me at this
point We came back to see the widow
and attend to some little business mat
! ters. This done we will return to our
native hills. X Y.

One of our correspondents has
suggested that our people subscribe
literally to the extension of the
Moss Point road through this
county to EIliSvile. We take the
liberty of saying that the citizens
of this county Will respond quickly
to this matter when called on
by the proper parties. What our
people want to know is, will this
road pass through the county seat?
THIS is "a matter of vital interest
both to them and to the promoters
of the road, and the road that gets
through Greene county via the
county seat is the road that will
do the business of the county.
There is an immense am )uDt of
transportation that comes to this
place, and will we'll pay a road to
come this way. Let us hear from
the good people of Moss Point on
this subject. We want some clearer
details.

Greeue county has a model citi
zen III the person of II. Mills. Mr..
Mills writes to the Greene County
Herald to The fleet that he be
lieves that county ought to have
the next State Senator aud it can
get out good, honest aud capab BILE
man for the place. The modest
part of Mr.. Mills communication is
the statement, "don't think that
want the office NY self" OF course
not. There is not man in four
teen states who would think after
reading such an implied refusal
that Mr.. Mills wanted the Office. 1t
could not be fore d on him with a
hydraulic press of 100000 pounds
to the square inch. Such modesty
is really irresistible Hattlesburg
Progress.
The Herald appreciates the keen
perception that the HattieSbarg
Progress has of Mr.. II. Mills char
)acter. They have stated the case
in the above lines exactly as it is,
aud we have only this to say. We
would request that our contemporary
read the letter from Mr.. Mills on
the same subjec', which appears in
this issue. We might say that
same came to our office unsolicited
and that Mr.. Mills knew nanght of
the above complimentary edertQila
before handing III this letter.

leased for a term of ninety nine

this will be 10 the Southern, aud

The injunction suil in which J. [.
Dixon u Co, are plaintiffs aud this
(Greene) County is defendant, was
given a hearing in Meridian on
Friday, Feb. 9th before Uhancel
lor Hill. The matter was submit
ted on briefs by each side. The In.
junction was dissolved so far as the
Hull Bros. are concerned, but is
retained for e present against
Greene County. THIS decision gave
no satisfaction to either side-it vir-
tually amounts to nothing. AS a
natural sequence both sides have
appealed TO the Supreme Court
Possibly the matter -nlaX be pi,.&ar
u bearing in this court owing to lts
Importance sometime in April. We
will inform our readers as soon as
any time IS set tor the hearing. We
might say in explanation that the
writ of injunction prays that the
Hull Brothers be restrained from
moving or interfering with the old
court house builing in anyway
Now as the old court house was
moved by the County (Greene) and
that before the writ of injunction
was granted, any intelligent reader
will easily see that the dissolving
of the injunction so far as the
HullS were concerned amounts Ii
terallly to nothing. They were
not restrained from doing any
thing to start with. What ouI
citizens want is speedy settle
ment of this matter.

Elsewhere in our columns this
issue will be found complete
account of the hearing of the inInnc-
ton suit, in which this (Greenc)
County is defendant, before Chan.
cellor N. Q. Hill at Meridian on
Feb. 25th. The decision made there
as will be seen, really amounts to
nothing, and it now rest with the
Supreme Court to pronounce the
final decision. This case is at
tracing much interest not ONLY in
this Immediate section, but in all
South Mississippi. The opposing
sides are holly contPstfng this mat.

to bring 1t to Il speedy close. This
