as their choice for the Senate, and about
as many more which have expressed them
selves favorable 10 his claims. Two pa
pers only of our party are opposing him;
and they do not venture 10 bring forward
any other candidate.
The papers which have declarcdfor him

DEATH OF GENERAL HARRIS. GEM.
WILLIE 2. HARRIS, died at his residence in
Copiah, on the 2Sth Of May, in the 47th
year Of bis age. He was native Of
Jackson county Georgia, and emigrated
70 Mississippi while it was territory -
Possessed of vigorous mind and an ar
dent temperament, with every social quail
~ to endear him as companion, he soon
became popular, and entered the public
service. He served frequently IN the
legislature under the old constitution.
Such was his activity as man Of bust.
ness, his pleasing manners and command.
ing talents, that in 1882, he was called up.
on TO become candidate for Governor Of
the State. He was defeated by q combi-
nation Of circumstances which placed
Gov. Scott in office; and yet, at this peri
cd, he was universally admitted to be the
most popular man in the State. Under
the administration of Genl. Jackson, GEM.
Harris was appointed Receiver of Public
monies at Columbus Miss. He entered
upon The duties of his station, man of
wealth, surrounded by friends, but he left
it under far different circumstances. For
tune had done her worst He could have
brooked the loss of riches--for he freely

gainst him, by the government, when in
his heart he knew he was guiltless; failing
in this, his spirit reelcd and sunk under

man after Gods own image, in all that
was enobling in human nature, his bouy-
ant spirit sinks under misfortune, and he
totters to premature grave! Would that
another and more capable pen had done
justice 10 the characterol an upright man.
We are not able 10 do so. General Har-
ris died surrounded by his friends; and
now, that he is no more, we may hope,
That even party rancor will cease to de-
lame his reputation. He was buried with
Masonic honors. His memory--the me-

or meeting Of the Democratic party
Of Madison county, at Canton, last week
tho following preamble and resolution was
offered by OWEN VAN vAcrKR, ESQ.,:
Whereas, il Is probable, from present in.
dications, that there win DO number OF
democratic names before the next Legisla.
ture, as candidates for tho vacant seat in
the United States Senate.
And whereas, under such circumstan-
cos, a small portion OF the democrats, by
uniting with the body Of the wings, may
I'LL said seat with the individual least ac-
ceptabe 10 the great mass Of our party.
And whereas, such state Of things is
calculated TO have an uniavorabla in fluence
upon the purity OF democratic principles,
and upon the political integrity Of our dis.
tinguished men.
And whereas, II is desirable that the
great democratic princlple--1HE RIGHT OF
THE MAJORITY TO RuLE--should, al all times,
DO seen, felt, and acknowledged in The So
lection Of candidates, as well as in the ap.
pointment Of officers; Therefore
Resolved, That we recommend 10 our
democratic brethren throughout the State
20 require Of their candidates for the Lee
gislature pledge 10 support, for United
States Senator, the individual who shalt be-
found, by caucus Of the democratic NOM

MIssouRI.-At the Democratic meeting

carried, after an animated discussions:
Resolped, That the delegates from this
meeting be instructed not to vote for any
man as u candidate for sent in tho State
Convention, unless he is ia favor Of tho
election Of the Judges by the people d..
recily, unless he is in favor Of The equali-
ty OF representation based upon while
population, SO that the same number Of
legal votes may be necessary for the cleo
ton OF representative in any and every
portion Of the Stale; and opposed to char
lering any banking institution unless tho
stockholders nre made individually re-.
sPonsible, and its issues arc limited 70

SEASONS, CROPS, &C..


We have had fine rains since our last
issue, which were much needed in some
portions of the county. In this immediate
neighborhood, the season has been so far
exceedingly favorable, and the crops Of
corn and cotton are very promising. We
are told that the cotton in the Yazoo val.
ley is unusually fne--but the cotton crop
everywhere is so liable to injury, from SO
many causes, that few can tell what they
VIII make until ready for market. The last
years. crop, in consequence of the great
overflow, &c. il was confidently predicted
would fall several hundred thousand bales
below the usual average. But the actual
receipts show that it will reach the i'm
mense amount of 2,450,00O bales--an
increase of more than 100000 bales over
last season. We notice less complaint
than usual in the newspapers, of misfor.
tunes TO the growing crop. The Yazoo is
at low stage, and but few boats are
now running.

OF Almost all the papers in the State
have spoken out against the present method
of advertising Sheriff IS sales. The matter
should be brought before the next Legisa-
ture. AS we have before said, if the sur
plus wording of the advertisements is dis
carded, and the fees for advertising in the
newspapers fixed at so much the hundred
words, the amount of the fees will be in
considerable, and all parties interested
would be benefited by the arrangement.
