In the sixteenth century, and in the reign

with blood )thcre livedin the city oil london
bold young prentice, who loved his mas

in the walls great many 'Prenlices In the
same condition, but speak OF only one'
and his name was Hugh Graham.
This Hugh was apprentced to an honest

and was rumored TO possess great wealth.

as at the present time, but it happened then
as now, 10 be sometimes right BY accident.
Ii stumbled upon the truth when itgave tho
old Bowyer mint Of money, His trade
had beenS profitable one in the time o.
King Henry the Eigth, who encouraged
English archery to the utmost, and he had
been prudent and discreet Thus it came
10 pass that Mistress Alice, his only daugh
ter, was the richest helress in all his wealthy
ward. Young 'Hugh had eflen maintained
with staff and cudgel that she was the tht
hapdsomeat. To do him justice believe
she was.
M If he could have gained the heart OF pret
Nv Mistress Alice by knocking this convic
ton into stubborn peoples heads, Hug
would have had no cause to fear. Bu
though the Bowyer's daughter smiled i
secret to hear of his doughty deed for he
sake, and though her little waiting woma

A friend has handed us for publica-
ton the annexed proceedings of a Wing
meeting at Fayette, Mississippi. The
meeting was said to have been large.
and great ananimity prevailing through
out their deliberations. When will the
Wings hold a meeting in this county,
FAYETTE, March 23, 1910.
The meeting organized by appointing
L. c. Harris, President, John A. Wat
kins, Secretary. G. t. Martin, Col.
clark, T. L. Dobyns and P. K. Mont
gomery, Committee TO prepare resolu-
lions expressive of our approval of the
nomination TO the Presidency of General
Harrison, and John Tyler for Vice Pre-
sidenl.
The Committee reported the following
resolutions:
Resotued, By the Wings Of Jefferson
county, that we most cordially and
cheerfulIy respond TO the nomination of
the Wing Convention held a Harrisburg
in December last-recommending to the
Wings of the United States, WILLIAM
HENRY HARRISON, of Ohio, for President
of the United States, and JOHN TYLER,
of Virginia, for Vice President.
Resolved, That the fattering pros
poets in favor of the ultimate success of
said ticket, is truly gratifying to the
friends of the Constitution, and of the
radical reform of the abuses of the pre-
sent corrupt administration of the Gene
raj Government.
ReSofred, That we have the highest
confidence in the honesty and ability of
Harrison and Tyler, and the most exalt-
ed hopes of their triumphant success.
Resolved, That General William Hen
ry Harrison, from his long and distin-
guished services TO the country, both in
the field and the cabinet, his tried abiIi-
ty, and sterling honesty, that have been
exerted and manifested in half centu-
ry of public services, and his sound Po-
litical principles, render him most wor-
thy of public confidence; and that since
the death of the immortal Washington,
he is the man of all others, the most
deserving of the appellation of ''frst in
war, first in peace, and first in the hearts
of his countrymen.'
ReSOtred, That we will make use of
all honorable means to secure the sue
cess of Harrison and Tyler.
The above resolutions were unani-
mously adopted. The meeting was adj
dressed at length by G. E. Martin and
t. l.. Dobyns.

Wm. NEED, Eso.-The appearance OF
the following sentence in the Southern
Reporter--"Shaying and swindling are
now the order of the day, and we blame
no man for playing his hand; indeed he
were fool else" while Mr.. Need was
the ostensibie editor, has justly called
down upon him cehsure in no measured
terms. Mr.. Newton has taken upon
himself the authorship of the article.
and the last Mississippian in defence OF
Mr.. Need, says that it was expressed
conditionally and plaUully, mis-quotes the
language used, and says Mr. Newton has
proved that Mr, Need had no connexion
with the paper when the above sentence
was published The defence in the
Mississippian must be entirely unsatis-
factory to every one, as il contains nc
denial for Mr.. Need, either by authority
or otherwise, and must still leave the
matter in doubt, as Mr. Need, if he had
any regard for his reputation should not
content himself with denial on the part
of his friends, but should come out over
his own signature. The last Yazoo
Banner says Mr.. Need has endeavored to
explain away the sentence in private
conversation at Jackson, which, as far
as Mr.. Newton is concerned, must en-
tirely do away his assumption Of the au-
thorship of the sentence in question.
Mr.. Need holds now an important Office,
and is candidate for the same before
the people of the State, which, indepen-
dent of all private conside rations, be-
hooves him to give the charge a direct
and positive denial.
