Col. James Liddell.

1t is our mealoncholy duty to announce the
death of this venerable citizen. His demise
occurred very suddenly on the morning of the
4th inst He arose in the morning, apparent
ly as well as usual, and in very short time,
even while moving about the house he was
called away by the hand of death.
Col Liddell had attained a very advanced
age, and had been, we understand, in gem
orally feble state of health for some time past.
This, with his advanced age, no doubtaccounts
for his sudden death.
For many years, Col. Lddell has been a
citizen of Carroll county, Miss, well known by
our people, and venerated and wellliked by a
large circle of acquaintances, and was, at a
former day in the service of the people Of the
county in the capacity Of representative in

WHITE SLAVERY WORSE THAN BLAcK.-The
Boston Medical and Surgical Journal OF Au-
gust 4th gives an account of case lately
treated in the Boston hospital, of young girl
completely debilitated by the confinement oi
a milliner's shop. She was restored to a par
tial degree of strength and sent back to her
labor. She works in an establishment for ma
king ladies' yisites and mantillas. AT this es-
tablishment eighty girls were working togeth-
er in single room, for ten hours daily. The
apartment was badly ventilated, but 1t is dii-
ficult to conceive how a room with eighty giris
in for ten hours a day could be ventilated at
all. The rules Of the establishment will not
allow of only half days work, and will not
permit the work to be taken home. II any
one dislike the employment others are ready
at any moment to take their places.
