The Watchman- Lake Providence, La. September 2, 1875
  Little Lula, daughter of Mrs. Minnie W. Leddy, died last Thursday, at the 
age of seven years, after an illness of two days, of congestive fever.  She 
was  buried in the yard on her mother's premises, with Catholic rites.  A 
large and respectable number atended the funeral, which took place on last 
Friday at 10 A.M.  Lula was a lovely, darling child, and was just begining to 
be a help to her widowed mother.  The entire community sympathise with Mrs. 
Leddy in her sore afflictions.  Lula was innocent and now "Suffer 
little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the 
Kingdom of Heaven."


  We have a new lady correspondent from Floyd.  Her first communication, on 
the subject of the education of Southern females, will appear in our next 
issue, and will be found quite interesting.  She promises us a serier of these 
articles, and we shall look for them.
  The Watchman seems to be popular with the ladies, as we have so many lady 
correspondents.  We are proud of that.
  We clip from the Vicksburg Herald the following complimentary notice of our 
new foreman and manager:  Mr. A. Wilkinson, an olf typrographical attache of 
the Herald, left for Lake Providence yesterday to take charge of the 
mechanical department of the vigiland Demeratic Watchman.  Success attend you, 
Doc, in your new field of industry.

  The great adjustment -- Call at F.M. Hays & Co.'s mammoth store.

  We take pleasure in referring our readers to the advertisement in another 
column of the Pegram House of Vicksburg.  This Hotel is conveniently located 
and well kept.

  Mr. A.M. Trust, late typographical manager of this paper, left here Tuesday 
night, on the City of Helena, on his way to Helena, Arkansas.  We hope him 
success wherever he  may go.

  "Aunt Sabry," a good old colored woman, died in Providence on the night of 
Tuesday, August 31st.  She was quite old, and had been feeble for a long 
time.  May the good old woman reap an eternal reward of happiness.
