One such meeting has been held at Xuiv

elsew here. The object of said meetings
is to memorialize Congress to give aid
lor the improvement of the Mississippi
levees In the Mississippi Valley, thereby
making thu soli adjacent valuable to the

Interested In the movement, I deem it my
duty to-ulghl to appoint a committee ot
three persons to attend said meeting ; to

Interest of Cairo. In appointing said
committee, and recommending the con
