The following remark about "the di-
vine" comes from the Boston Times, and
that part which alIudes to the almost
fronzied patronage bestowed upon her
wherever she goes, suits our taste pref
ty well:
Fanny Elssier is an ignorant, low
born, and abandoned woman, about thir.
ty-fve years old. Though never mar
ried, it is understood that she has num-
Der Of children now living in Europe,
where she has been nearly as well known
as courtezan s she is as dancer
That she is a graceful performer, is, OF
course, true, but her triumphs have not
been won BY artistic merit. She is, on
the stage, a fine looking animal; she
appears there Invested of all the decen-
cIes of her sex, and draws around her,
wherever she exhibits herself, the depra-
we'd and sensual OF all classes. To con-
tend that the men and women of Phila-
delphia, New York and Boston, or the
asses OF Baltimore, who throng the the
atre whenever she bares her person TO
the public gaze, are attracted by the adj
mirable skill and grace with which she
dances, is exquisltely absurd. If the peo-
pie have SO enthusiastic devotion to
art, why is it that our picture and sculp-
ture galleries, (for we have some credit
able collections Of works of art, and
should have more, and better ones, If they
could be suppofted,) are all deserted!
lie who has fine perception of the
beautiful, IN art or nature, will by no
means neglect music, poetry, painting
and sculpture, to look upon denuded and
shameless public dancer. Asingle glance
around the theatre, by one familiar with
the town, would show, when this woman
appears, that pit and boxes were filled, in
nearly all cases, by the least intellectual
and the least moral. There are excep.
tons, certainly. Among the refined and
educated are many who can appreciate
the "poetry of notion But the multi.
tude cannot. The exhibition of any vo-
luptuous and half-uncovered woman,
would, by the mass who praise Elssler,
be deemed alone worth the price Of a
ticket"

sumof seven million three hundred and
eirhty-two thousand three hundred aud
thirtv-fyc dollars and thirty cents. and
the annual interest on that sum, most of
it payable 10 Europe, amounts TO the sum
of $4,000. To preSerue the honor of
the State unsullied, and her credit amin
paired, II Is Of the last importance, that
the interest should be punctually paid, at
the places designated, and ample funds
prorided for he redemption Of the princt-
pal; it is usually much easier TO borroao
and spend money, than TO proride the means
Of payment"
In January 1910, clouds and dark
ness still shrouded the mind of the Coy
ernor upon this subject, for, in his mes.
sage of that year, he remarks, that,
The act Incorporating the subscribers
of the Mississippi Union Bank did not re-
ceive all the sanctions required by the
Constitution, until the 9th day of Febru-
airy. 1885, at which time, having no
constitutional scruples,' his Excellency
approved it. Again, in the same mes
sage, speaking III reference to the apple
cation in 1888, Of the bank commission
ers-to examine the Union Bank, he re-
marks, that The State attic time of the
application acas the sole Stockhozder; her
credit had established the institution; and
inasmuch as the Constitution enioins up.
on the Executive to take care that the
laws be faithfully executed, it was of the
last Importance, that should ascertain,
before signing the residue of the bonds,
whether the stock taken by the citizens
of the Slate had been secured in the man
ner pointed out in the charter, and the
affairs of the bank conducted according
TO its spirit With this knowledge ofhis
duty on the part Of the Executive, we
hnd that IN the summer of 1889, as he de-
clares in his message, he signed and de-
livered to the managers bonds to the
amount Of five millions ofdolIars.' Again
he remarks in this message, that The
feih Of The State IS pledged for the ,otoze
capital stock, and the property Of all hey
citjzens maybe taaed hereafter 10 make up
its losses and defalcati6ns'"

TO THE VOTERS OF MADISON
COUNTY.

Ii is probably known 10 many OF YOU
that am candidate for reelection to
the office ofSheriff of Madison county
You had the kindness TO bes.ow that of
fee upon me at the last general election,
and feel a consciousness of having dis
charged the very arduous and respon.
sible duties Of Sheriff from that period
TO the present time honestly and faithful
ly. But have been long enough in this
world TO have learned, that purity of IN
tention and honesty of conduct will not
always exempt rs irem the base assaults
Of calumny.
Reports highly preiudicial 10 my char
acter have as am Informed, been put in
circulation and no doubt with the
view ofPreventing my reelection to the
Office of sheriff if possible, the object of
this communication is, to place the facts
before you in order that you nay deter
mine whether or not such reports are
false and malicious.
: Sometime in the month Of last Novem-
Der process of attachment was issued
against the property of Mr.. William
Tinnin at the instance of Lewis M. Gar
rett Esq, this process was received by
Mr.. Charles Hickerson one Of my depu-
ties and was by him served upon twelve
Negroes and other property as the goods
and chattles of said VIM. Tinnin, by it
the Sheriff of Madison county was com
handed so to secure the property attach
ed, that the same might be stable to
further proceeding thereupon according
to law" al the next Circuit Court of said
county which was to be held in May
1841.
In all cases of attachment, the law
makes it the duty of the officer TO return
the property TO the defendant provided,
that the defendant, shall first give him
a good and sufficient repIevy bond, and
if the officer takes a bond which is not
'conformable to law, or securities on such
bond, who are insufficient, he becomes
responsible 10 the plaintiff for the whole
amount of debt on which the attachment
is founded. The attachment in this
case was for the sum of twenty one thou
sand two hundred dollars, An unusual
large amount, the bond had to be given in
with double this amount fl had taken
bond from Mr.. Tinnin, which was
not in strict accordance with the letter OF
the law, would in such cases have be-
come responsible to Mr. Garrett for this
large debt, which would have ruined me
and seriously injured my securities.
A report has been put in circulation,
that had with view to favor Mr.. Gar
rett the plaintiff in the attachment, OPP
pressed Mr.. TinnIn by refusing to take
a repIevy bond. 1t is true that two bonds
were rendered to me, but they were not
such bonds as the law required, at least
thought so from the best legal advice |
could get in the State and therefore i'll
had accepted either of them, should
have been ruined myself and my friends
who were securities on fqy official bond
seriously injured. It's wholly untrue thea,

Shall light word part US now!
We have been gay together;
We have laughed at little jests;
For the funt Of hope was gushing
Warm and joyous in our breasts.
But laughter now hath fled thy lip,
And sullen glooms thy brow;

Shall light word part US now?

The hope of early years. [bered
