A SCENE IN MISSISSIPPI.

Some weeks ago. a meeting OF many citizens
of Mississippi, 1.-THE most numerous, perhaps,
ever convened 10 the State" was held at the
town of Raymond. for the purpose of political
discussion. Judge Nicholson opened the debate
in opposition to Notification: he was followed
by Samuel B. Marsh, Esq in defence of that he
res,; and Mr.. Marsh was replied to by Henry
5. Foote, Esq. who ably supported the cause Of
the Union of the States The MIssissippian
says:-
"When Mr.. Fooe had concluded his remarks
Mr. Plummer rose. and addressed the auditory
at considerable length, giving some explanation
Of his course in Congress. and defending himself
from certain charges which he said had been pre-
ferred agans, him. He particularly alluded to
the charge of his having declared the Presidents
Proclamation "a heightened Federal document -
remarked very pointedly upnn the iiberai spirit
IN which it had been gotten up, and denied it po-
sitively. Mr.. Foote, who was still in the audi
tory, observed that he had stated that Mr P.
had called the Proclamation "a high tonedlofe.
deral document" Mr.. p replied, "You stat.
ed lie Mr. Fuotr said Go on -
When Mr. PIummer (the promising Young
member,'') concluded his speech. Mr. Foote
again reiterated his charge After intimating
that at "ano.her time and place" he would call
Mr. Piummer to account for the epthet applied
20 him, he named several gentlemen bv whose
evidence he could sustain his allegation Gen.
Runnels. Col. Gwin, Harry Long, &c. We
again quote from the hissssppau:
Gen. Runnrls, being fist invited forward.
observed that it was with feelings of painful de-
licacv that he took upon himself the task Of ties.
tfying to a case where two individuals were con.
cerned. as in this instance, toward, both of whom
he was friendly; but. being called on by Mr..
Foote. he must say, that he had repeatedly heard
Mr.. Pummer charge the Presidents Proclama
ton with being "a high toned Federal docu.
ment," and that he had IN addition expressed the
opininn that g its doctrines went farther even
than the Federallsts of 1882. Gen. r. was
proceeding, as he said. still farther into particu
lars, when Mr.. Plummer advanced across the
platform to Mr.. Foote. and requested that the
General might close his testimony at that point,
as he was noV willing to acknowledge that he
had used the words imputed to him. Mr.. Fooe
asked him if he would publicly acknowledge to
the auditory that he had called the Proclamation
"a high toned Federal document" and with.
draw the charge of falsehood preferred against
him. Mr.. Plummer agreed to do so, and Mr..
Foote requested Gen. r. to stop; when Mr..
Plummer made the necessary acknowledgment"
1t seems to US that the "promislng Young
member" cuts most ridiculous figure in
this affair, and that he shows himself fairly en-.
titled to the eplthet which he applied to Mr..
Foote. -Lyuchburg Virginian.

TED POETRY

SUMMERS G0NE.-BY Mas. NoRTo
Hark, through the dim woods dying,
With a moan,
Family the winds are signing
Summers gone!
There when my bruised heart feeIetb,
Ard the pale moon her face revealeth,
Darkly nv footstep stealeth,
To weep alone.
Hour after hour l wander,
By men unseen
And sadly my wrong thoughts ponder,
On what hath been,
Summers gone!
There in our own green bowers
Long ago.
Our path through the tangled flowers
Treading slow;
Oft hand in hand entwining-
Oft side by side reclining
We've watched in its crimson shining
The sunset glow.
Dimlv the sun now burneth
For me alone
Spring after spring returneth,
Thou arr gone,
Summers gone.
Still on my warm cheek playeth
The restless breeze:
Still in its freshness strayeth
Between the trees.
Still the blue streamlet gusheth-
Sill, the broad river ru>beth-
Still the calm silence husheth
The hearts disease:
But who shall bring cur meetings
Back again?
What shall recall thy greetings
Love in vain!
Summers gone!

progress OF theirs great enterprise.
The most prominent, if not the sole cnuse of
this delay, contemporary in its origin, il it did
not precede the commencement of the canal
itself.
The Company had at least every reason to
hope. that, BY the decision Of the highest tribu.
nal Of that State, in the courts of which this OBJ
structon originated, it had been efrectuaIIy and
permanently removed; and their officers procee-
ded Immediately after this suspicious termina-
ton Of three years. controversy, to place fifty.
two miles of canal along the disputed ground,
under contract for construction, with the most
confident belief that they would be able to pro.
coed, without further embarrassment. at least
to the full extent to their subscribed capital.
They we're, however, speedily threatened with
the destruction of their whole enterprise, on the
ground Of that very delay, to which they had
been so unexpectedly and injuriousiy subjected.
On very high authority, they we're told that they
should be denied all further aid, from the State
to whose laws their property was to look for pro.
lection. unless they yielded. BY compromise,
what had been sought to be won from them, BY
legal controversy.
