P. S. In the course of INV remarks, in the
foregoing letter, have said that we should
contend through the means of the ballot
boo. This l deem highly important. In
giving my suffrage, | cannot consistently,
as an abolitionist, bestow it on candidate,
be he wing or anti-whig, if he cannot fully,
faithfully, and fearlessly advocate the equal
rights OF man. IL | cast my vote for an
ti-aboliiionist, no matter what is his party
name, and he be elected, then am l fairly
charseable with sealing any own lips and
riveting the letters of my own limbs. From
considerations like these, nave RETAINED
from voting for the last three years, either
at State or Congressional election.

There seems no pain TO stir him,

For see, his soft hand clasp'd in thine,
He hears not storm or blast.
"Why dost thou gaze so wildly?
Whv strain thy strong embrace
Unlock thy grasp of terror, u.
And let me see his face"
So down that mother laid him
In her agony Of care,
And kiss'd his cold and marble brow
with calm and Gx'd despair
Weep! weep there's holy healing
In every gushing tear
Meier scrulin'zc thar beauleous clay,
The angel is not here;
No shut of rose at evenlde
Was with peace so deep,
As DER thy darling's closing eye
Stole his last doIcllkc sleep.
"Whe,c best he love TO hide him,
In that dear shelicring spot,
Just there, his tender spnit pdss'd.
Pass'd, and thou knew'>t it not;
His fond lip never uemb'ed,
Nor sgh'G the parting breath,
When strangely for his nectard drausht
lie drank the cup Of death.
"Ful was thy lot Of blessing.
To charm his cradle hours,
To touch his sparkling fount of thought,
And breathe his breath of flowers!
And take thy daily lesson,
From the smile that beam'd so free,
or what in boiler. brighter realms,
The pure in heart must be.

May with his image shine,
When in hat lonely hour of lovo

And yet pant of thee.

Grand Gulf, MISS. Pne /, 1899


Dear Sir: hasten to inform you that yesterday
the greater portion of the beautiful little town Of
Port Gibson, about nine miles from Grand Gulf,
was destroyed by fire, which originated by acct
dent about O'Clock A. NJ. The loss Of pro-
perty is estimated at not lessthan seven hundred
Thousand dollars-by some persons at one million.
Mostof the principal merchants are utterly ruined.
The courthouse was totally destroyed, and the
whole Of the principal business streets is nothing
buta heap Of ruins. The houses were principally
|of brick. have Just returned from the scene
Never in my life have been more moved by the
sight Of calamity than by this The citizens and
the strangers in town were in the greatest agita-
Ition; some of the unfortunate inhabitants were
frantic with loss. The Circuit Court of Claiborne
county was in session last week, hut this terrible
Rcalamity has caused the Judge to adjourn the
Court, the records and papers rescued from the
Turning courthouse being in too much confu-
Eson to be arranged easily for several days. 1t is
ito be hoped the sympathes of the whole country
Twill be for the poor unhappy people of Port
|Gibson.
The steamer ATLANTA being about to leave,
Jam forced to conclude in haste. Yours, &C.

'hc who takes away from the wife and the children

fishes the domestic stock of the general fire-sid
for the sake of saving few dollars of perishable

Although we agree with the views expressed

The writer of that appeal to the public, signed
SJustice," no doubt expressed the feelings of all
ahis countrymen, who joined in the '.turn out"
sf sense of Justice would prompt them (lhe
to consider this business, or whether
2they would place slaces upon the buildings in

according to the Interpretation Of the refractory;
lit is the justice Of denouncing the labor Of the
sslave, and sending him home as useless to be
maintained by his master, while the white man
