pond''--a perfect "Maelstroum,' from which
no sail vessel could extricate herself. and the
staunch, snug, and well built little steamer
Creole, referred to by Mr.. Monet, in hurricane
number seven, had some difficulty, with a
good deal of anxiety expressed by those on
board, in saving herself, by the aid of steam,
and the services Of 'Jord River pilot,
who was accidentally on board at the time.
That the L. s, Government have on differ
ent occasions quartered troops at Shieldsboro,
and that their cutters, gunboats and surveying
schooners have resorted to the Bay of ST. Louis,
either for stores or shelter or convenience to
New Orleans, argues nothing in favor of its
being the point par ercellanee Of easiest aeeess
and absolute security from storms, as they
do not now resort there. The cutters on the
coast make Ship Island Harbor their present
rendezvous and the troop establishments are
at Pascagoula, and several of their surveying
schooners moor occasionally inside of the Pas
cagOula River, and are repaired there. That
land is better place, or at all equal to the
Harbor of Ship Island proper, for loading or
unloading cargoes, either as regards safety,
swiftness of the water or its depth do most
emphatically deny, and on the contrary, l
maintain that a vessel drawing twenty feet Of
water has no business there. | think it
very doubtful if such a draft is to be found in
the space referred to, and it is very questiona-
BILE ifa vessel drawing sixteen feet of water
can approach within ten miles of the Bay Of
st. Louis either by the North or South side
Of Cat Island So much for Mr.. Monet's Har-
Dor of Refuge, its convenience and accessibility
And ifan immunity for gales and hurricanes,
Is to govern the Directory in selecting a point
of terminus, they mad better prolong their de-
csion for another half century as we do
not, nor could Prof. Espy or Lieut. Maury,
with the aid OF thousand barometers and
Judge MOnets fifty years experience thrown
in, tell where the hurricanes to come will
develope their greatest force, nor the strength
and direction the wind may have, on this
gulf shore.
In conclusion, Mr. Editor allow me to say,
that | speak from the 3o2k.
Very respectfully,
D. MCLEAN.

THE MILITARY CoLLEGE.-We note as an
affair of public interest in our vicinity that
the Kentucky Military Institute has now
an hundred and twenty cadets greater
number, we are informed than at this period
of any former session since its establishment
twenty years ago.
We copy the foregoing from the Frankfort
Yeoman. The people of Kentucky seem to
be proud of this Military Institution. 1t ap-
pears to be State College. The degrees are
conferred by diplomas with the grand seal Of
the State delivered by the Governor. We
learn that it is conducted ON the principle of
the U. S. school at West Point With its
corps of competent instructors it cannot fail
to succeed. The South wants military
schools within her own limits free of access
to all.

People of the South Take Warning.

The New York Day Book, journal of
great ability and of the highest respectability,
referring to the recent affair at Harpers Fer

in the following extract;
We hare reason to believe that there is q seg-
ularly organized society in this city of neqyo
steaIers, and that ii includes many clerqunen
and lay1nen, aud that evep not a fen business
men contribute to fill its treasury. What is
more, WE HAVE THE NAMES of some of

" The political friends of Mr.. Douglas,
North and South, built high hopes upon the
anticipated results Of the recent elections in
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Iowa and Minnesota
The Democratic party in those States fought
their battles upon his platform of souatter-
sovereignty, and his peculiar friends, fiattered
themselves and him, that if the Democracy
should be successful, he would be vastly
strengthened thereby as a candidate for the
next Presidency.
But all such expectations and hopes have
been dashed to the ground. In all the States
named, the Democracy have been scattered to
the winds. They found in the position Of
Douglas no element of strength and their
dependency is too manifest to be mistaken

\ New Boat FOR THE YAzoo TRADE-
We find in the columns of the New Orleans
Delta the following description Of the J. NJ.
SHARP, the new Yazo boat:
The j. NJ. Sharp is plain, neat and ser
viceable looking boat; has large, wide decks as
a cotton boat ought to have, and is of exceed
ingly light drausht for her size, drawing not
26 inches when light. Her dimensions are
15G feet deck, 80 feet beam, and feet hold
She has two engines of IB-incIi cy.fnticr and
6 feet stroke, and three boilers, % feet long
and SO inches in diameter. Her cost was
$4,000, and her capacity is for 1900 .iales Of
cotton. Not the least attractive feature about
the boat is her neat and well-furnished cabin
"a perfect molel, indeed, of simplicity and
good taste. The Sharp is the successor OF
the old favorite Louis Whteman, and is to be
commanded by Capt j. W. White. Capt. B.
+. Powell, well known as the clerk OF the
Whiteman, fills the same position aboard the
new boat.

For The Mississippian.
Hon. Beverly Matthews, of Lowndes

Sir: Permit me through your columns
to suggest the above named gentleman as a
suitable person to fill the chair of Speaker OF
the House Of Representatives.
Mr.. Matthews is a native of North Alabama
and fully identified with the South and all her
interests. His legislative experience and
thorough knowledge of parliamentary rules,
well qualify him for the position. His urbane
manners, courteous bearing, high cultivation,
as well as senatorial dignity, all seem to Pc
culiarly qualify him, in my estimation, for
that responsible position.
1t is useless to say anything of Mr. Mat
thews to those gentlemen who were members
OF the late extra session, as it is known to them
with what energy and ability he engaged in
all questions of Importance brought before
that body for their deliberation. Independent
of the foregoing, there are facts to be taken
into consideration Mr.. Matthews saved the
Democratic ticket in Lowndes two years ago.
His late triumphant. election, when Democrats
heretofore tried and true-formel u co-ali
ton with the Opposition (though foiIed in
their attempt to overthrow the Democracy
should be remembered. The result commends
him to the favorable consideration of his party
and attest, the superiority Of his talents.
