The Southern {(of Mississippi)} Railroad
   The public will be pleased to learn there is every prospect at present that this important thoroughfare will soon be put in good order, and rendered capable of performing the extraordinary services that now devolve upon it. The new president of the company, Victor Wilson, Esq., has been for some days on a tour of observation, with a determination to work a reform, and the government railroad agent is also on the line. Mr. Wilson assures us he desires no aid from the government, except in securing laborers, but will prosecute the work with the utmost vigor. See the advertisement for hands, published this evening.
