        FROM THE NOXUBEE - The W. B. Seawell, employed on that river, arrived from the Noxubee last Sunday evening, under the command of Captain Burns Meaher, with Capt. Jack Stone as pilot.  Capt. Jack says the Noxubee, when cleared out, will have sufficient water for steamers like the Bradish Johnson, which can come out of Macon all O. K., and bring 1000 bales of cotton.  The river cleared out, is a natural canal.  -  Mobile News. [The Gainesville Reporter, Gainesville, Alabama]
