MISSISSIPPI REPUTATION.

One incident Of the late election must be universally
gratifying The people Of the State Of Mississippi have
voted to pay the bonds Of the Planters Bank and thus
far the debt is concerned the stain Of re-
pudiation which has hitherto rested upon their State
The history Of this debt is interesting
Under the old Constitution Of Mississippi the State
chartered the Planters Bank Of the State Of Mississippi
with capital stock Of 100000 OF this capital two
millions reserved to the State, and the remaining
Million left to individuals subsequently increased to
So, 0000 600 The individual stockholders paid up but
the State only subscribed and sold its bonds for
Of the amount reserved the bonds being issued to the
bank, but negotiated abroad by commissioners The COM
missoners and majority Of the directors Of the bank
appointed by the Governor The debt thus created
recognised under the Constitution Of 1882 and
as such approved by the people Of the State The
bonds, MEANWHILE sold above par and from 1880 to 1910
the State received her dividend the stock generally ten
per cent per The dividends thus served TO nav
the interest the bonds and left four per cent profit 10
the State its 50 900 Of stock This stock was sub
bsequenty invested in the hatcher Railroad and was there
sunk together with the sinking fund created to meet the
bonds The latter issues Of bonds are due in the
1861, 1866 and 1871 and the question at the late cleo
ton turned upon their payment The result Of the vote
is highly gratifying indicating purpose on the part
Of the people to restore the credit and reputation OF the
State.--New FORK Tmes

TELEcRAPmc EsrERPRIsE-The enterprise OF bringing
the Old and New Worlds within four or FIVE days com
muncaton with each other through the powerful agen
cies of steam and electricity likely to be soon brought
to contamination The capital for the Newfoundland
Electric Telegraph, connecting New York with Cape

the lneis promised early in the coming summer The
line will be fifteen hundred miles long, one hundred and
fifty miles Of which will be submarine. Commencing at
Cape Race, it crosses the Island of Newfoundland and
thence by submarine line of one hundred and forty
miles, the Gulf Of St. Lawrence and traversng
Prince Edwards Island, by another submarine line
reaches Cape Tormentn, in New Brunswick from whence
its course is direct to New York At Cape Race steam
yacht will intercept the European and New York steam

A division of Texas has been in agitation in that
State tor more than two years past At the present
time the advocates of division are mainly in Eastern
Texas where several newspapers are enlisted in the
cause We are informed by the Houston Telegraph
that the scheme is rapidly gaining favor and that it
is proposed to hold an extra session of the Lee
gislature upon the subject. The Telegraph strenu-
ously opposes it, urging that, if there should be
division of the State, as proposed, into Eastern and
Western Texas, there would be great danger Of the
western section becoming a free State, which the
Telegraph thinks would much depreciate the value
of slave property in Eastern Texas 1t is stated that
the success attending the culture Of sugar in Texas
has been such that the country between the Trinity
and Guadalupe rivers is rapidly filing up with plant
ers and if the State remains united for some years
longer, it will be pretty well peopled with slave
holding population.

ELECTION NEWS.

From FLORIDA our reports are such as to leave
doubt that the State has cast its electoral Vote
by small majority, for the Democratic Presidential
candidates. GEORGIA votes the same way, giving
to that ticket very large majority, and but few
votes to either of the irregular tickets The returns
from some forty counties in NORTH CAROLINA show
an aggregate Wing gain of nearly three thousand
votes, as compared with the late Governor election,
rendering the result in the State doubtful IeU1-

OF government and tho working of our institutions,
to see the perfect submission to and acquiescence
the will Of the majority by the minority. A civil
revolution has been effected by the ballotbox alone,
and the defeated think no more of rebelling or re-
Voting than they do of going to the moon. What
misery in the old world, is here just as much
matter OF course as the execution OF decree in
chancery, or the peaceable settlement Of a suit at
common law. The people have heard the argu-
ments tried the case, and rendered their verdict,
and there is end of the matter. On the 4th Of
March next, FRANKLIN PIERCE without armies or
guards will appear in the Capitol, and be sworn IN
as President, and from that moment WELD the
power and patronage of the Government, as far as
his constitutional duties will permit without man
in this wide Republic to object to his right Who
can fail to love such country, and 50 glory in in
situations that bring about such result? Political
defeat loses all its sting, and Americans of all par
ties may rejoice that their nation is affordng to the
rest of the world example which will tend more to
propagate republican principles than intervention or
acquisition. Obedience to law is the great American
doctrine. The termination of Presidential cleo

this it is important event. apart from other
