CANCELLATION, HARMONY, SMOOTHING.
OVER, &c.-We see in many of our ex-
changes the warmest exhortations against
attacking members of our own party
against making too much of stir about
the suppression of Mr.. Thompson's COM
mission, &c.-all of which we are well
aware is intended as condemnation of
the course the Sentinel has pursued in this
respect.
We wish once for all to state our deter
mination as to this and any other derelc-
ton from duty by members of the demo
cratic party. God has not gwen us the
nature of toady, and we shall not as
sumo it. As public journalist, we shall,
to the best of the humble ability we pos
sess, be true to the principles of pure JUS
tice and full equality, which we believe to
be the foundation of the glorious democra-
tic creed. We never can lard over with
praise, or screen from punishment, the man
who swerves from these principles no mat
ter how loudly he may shout " democra-
cy" with his lips, and no matter how high
a position he may have before occupied
in public confidence. We have already
once seen our party Frustrated in Mis-
sissppi, mainly by attempts (which the
wings exposed and which all will remem-
berry to hush up and screen from scrutiny
the defalcation and misdemeanors of demo.
cratic Office holders.
HE TRUE Way TO MAINTAIN THE AS
CENDANCY OF OUR PARTY, is TO KEEP IT
PURE. That Cancellation and harmony
will avail US but little, which is purchas-
ed by hushing up transactions of usurpa-
ton or corruption in our officials. And
no man or set of men need rely on any
but one course in the Sentinel-the organ
of the unterrified democracy. 1t will hush
up no rascally secret or intrigue--it will
smooth over with plausible excuse no high
handed outrage-and will never shrink
from exposing and denouncIng misconduct
let who will be guilty of it. Short-livec
success perhaps perhaps may sometimes
be purchased by different course. Blu
such success we do not want. We haC
rather be in defeat and disgrace, with no
nesty and purity, than previously trium
plant with corruption. We love trutl
and principle more than party success.

about him.
Now, Mr.. Editor, what strikes me with
some little surprise, is, that these three
men, Foote, Quitman, and Gwin, differing
widely as they do in some things, with the
Wing editors and politicians, are singular
ly enough united with them TO defeat OLD
M'NUTT. With them he is the mind
less, heartless" old "vandal,' the great
"political juggernaut," and must be con-
signed 10 the accused alembic Of loco
locoism.* Does not this unholy alliance
mean something? Will you, Mr.. Editor,
tell your readers in North Mississippi, if
they are "sow at guessing," what it does
mean? And you, democrats of North
Mississippi, permit fellow working man,
one who sweats for every morsel Of bread
he eats, to exhort you to cast your thoughts
about you, and look at the danger in this
colleaguring of prcfsssed democrats with
your natural foes, the wings, against the
man who has always stood up for your
rights-and for doing which he has been
abused more, almost, than any man living.

AWFUL EXPLOSION AND DESTRUCTION OF
LIFE.--On Tuesday our LeVee was the
scene of a horrible disaster. At about
four O'Clock in the afternoon, as the steam
er Marquette was leaving the wharf for
Cincinnati and Pittsburg, her boilers burst,
and a number OF persons were killed, and
others were scalded and horribly mutila-
ted. The boat was backing out at the
time, and the wheels had made but few
revolutions when the accident occurred
As is customary at such time, crowd Of
persons were on the forward deck and
bow. The loss of life is not yet known,
Blu! must have been great in proportion to
the numbers exposed. The boat was shat
tered from end to end, and sunk in very
short time after the explosion. 1t is to be
feared that many of the wounded as well as
the dead went down with her.
We are informed that the Captain be-
lieves there were about 80 cabin passen-
gers, and about the same number Of deck
passengers on board. 1t is known that
five persons were killed, seven wounded,
one of them MORALLY, and seven missing.
We saw, the last time we visited the scene,
young man II or Is years of age whose
grief was inconsolable, he stated that his
mother was killed by the explosion; she
was deck passenger. [N. o. Bulletin.

GEN. HoUsToN-A New Orleans cor
respondent of the New York Morning
News, handles this individual without
gloves. He says his declaration thathe has
been ''coquetting' all along with England,
is false; that he is known in Texas to be an
anti -annexationisl; that upon all occasions,
in moments of questionable and unques-
tionable sobriety-in all companies-in
stages, in steamboats,, and at taverns-he
has been known to denounce the project
of annexation in the bitterest and most un.
measured terms. The writer represents
him as entirely under the influence of the
British and French officials-as employ.
ing, in the embassy TO England, man no
toriously opposed TO annexation-and as,
in fine, doing every thing he could to pre-
vent it.
We thought from the first that Gen
Houston took rather an awkard way oil
getting out out of the scrape, and this VIII
ter confirms us in the opinion. He speaks Of
certain magnificent schemes of Houston
as connected with the independence of
Texas-such as establishing free trade in
that country, and breaking US down-con-
qnering Mexico-revelling in the halls OF
Montezuma, and other such stereotyped
chivalric notions. The evidence is too
strong against him. His recantation comes
too late. He is known as bitter anti.
annexationist, and he cannot convince the
world that he is any thing else. A man
might get off from any charge under the
| Il - II L.
against him The better. 1t is like Falstaff's
pretending to know the Prince, after he
had convicted him of lying. 1t won't do

CATHOLIC CHURCH AT NEw-ORLRANs.
-Welearn from the New Orleans Courier
that the Bishop Of New Orleans perempto-
rily refused the use of the old Cathedral
of St. Louis for celebrating the funeral
ceremonies Of Jackson; and also refused
that the funeral orations should be deliver
ed in the building.
When it is remembered that in this ve-
neruble church the rejoicings for the VIC
tory OF the Sth were celebrated, few days
after the battle in January, 1915, and that
from the associations it would recall, no
place would be so proper for celebrating
the funeral Of the hero who saved il from
Dissertation, and also that the committee
making the request was composed of men
who would hardly request any thing im-
proper-this refusal appears very extra
ordinary.
We know not the reasons for the refu-
sal, nor the points of church government
or theological doctrine which may be plead
in Justification; nor do we know whether
the refusal will be sanctioned by the Ca
tholc Church of America as body. But
this we do know, that this refusal will do
more to make the Catholics odious to our
people, and will retard the progress OF
their church in this country more than all
the intolerant TRADES of the Beechers, and
other bitter Protestant opponents, and more
than they can repair in century of labor
