A Highly Important Meeting.
The joint meeting of the Atchafalay's
and Lafourche Basin levee boards
which Gov. Blanchard has called for
10 o'clock a. m. on Wednesday next,
the 20th inst., at the Donaldsonville
courthouse, will be a very important
gathering, inasmuch as its action is
almost certain to exercise great influ
ence in hastening the construction of
a lock to take the place of the dam
which now shuts off connection
between Bayou Lafourche and the
Mississippi river at this town.
