Young Cotton Killed.

Reports from several sections Of
Mississippi, especially the northern
counties, are to the effect that a con-
siderable amount of young cotton
was killed by the frost last week,
and large amount Of replanting
will be necessary. To the southwark
of Jackson the damage ON account
of the cold snap was not of much
consequence, but some of the north
ern communities suffered heavily,
according to the reports received. 1t
is usually the case, however, that
crop damage from adverse weather
is never so bad as painted, and that
with the recurrence of warm wealth
er it is anticipated that many Of the
estimates heretofore made will not
have such a gloomy aspect.

is understood that the governor is

the most important duties that the

Mississippi, has been presented to
the State railroad commission pray
ing that body to establish and pro-
mitigate a charge or tariff to be paid
by railroad companies when freight

known as delayage charge, just as

Reports come from points along

that unknown parties have been
playing havoc among the fish in

fish have been killed by the thou

the finer varieties and leave the 9TH

The officers are endeavoring to OBJ
tain a clew to the identity of the
parties, and it is likely that they
will be severely dealt with if cap
tured.

The BeIled Huzzard Reapoears.

The people of Lee county are very
much excited over the temperance
of the belled buzzard, after an alb
sence of about a dozen years. The
bird was seen near Verona one day
last week by negro farmer named
Henry Robinson, who declares that
he plainly heard the jingling of the
bell around the fowls neck and that
the bird flew very near to him and
appeared quite tame. About thirty
years ago a farmer named Thomp-
son Meadows, living near Keown-
vile, in Union county, caught
buzzard and placed a dinner bell
around its neck. At frequent inter
walls the bird has been seen in North
Mississippi, and, on several occa-
sions, superstitious negroes have
been greatly frightened by the
changing of the bell as the buzzard
flew through the air over their heads.
