( dispatch from Washington to the Boston
Advertiser says General Howard's bureau has
just received information of an important
transaction in Mississippi. It appears that,
on the 4th instant, man named jackson shot
colored man in his cottonfeld, in Wash
inston County, and Alternating vainly two
weeks for the civil authorities, established by
Governor Sharkey, to take the matter in hand
Colonel Thomas the assistant commissioner
of freedman's affairs for that district arrested
Jackson and committed him to jail to await
trial by military commission. A writ of habeus
corpus was sued out, and Colonel Thomas
telegraphed to Washington for Instructions
The sheriff not readily finding the Colonel
when he wentyto serve the writ, an effort was
made to rescue Jackson, which was frustrated
by the guards. The Instructions from this city
soon reached Colonel Thomas, who, in pur-
suance of orders from the President, declined
to deliver jackson over to the civil authori-
ties, and his trial is now in progress before a
military commission. This statement probab-
ly indicates the course to be pursued through
out the South, whenever the civil officers ig-
more the rights of the freedmen.

BANGOR, July ~, 1895.


70 the Editor of the .oress:
The Anniversary meetings of the Theolog-
ical Seminary in this place have been well at
tended, and all the exercises have been of an
unusually interesting character. As the year
rolls round, the Alumni of this Institution
this city set on a hill-love to come together,
to rekindle old associations, and to reassure
their faith in the principles which they love to
d lend, and in the consultations of which they
hope to die.
/ The thoroughness of the examinations, and
the independence of the students in maintain
ing opinions, ,evinced not only good instruc-
ton, but equally great freedom in nvestiga-
ton. AS stated by the, erudite Professor in
sacred literature, in his admirable address to
the graduating class, dogma begins where
proof ends;;' and it is refreshing to every
church Of our pelity and faith to know that it
is no dosmatic system of Theology which is
here inculcated.
Wednesday evening am elaborate and elo-
quent address was delivered before the Rhe-
torical Society by the Rev. G. L. Walker, of
your city. His subject was the relation of pol
ft5 to style; and most clearly was it shown
thatthe Congregational polity, is calculated to
develope the highest style Of sacred rhetoric
Throughout the address bore marks of purity
of style, Of massiveness Of augmentation,
which came with a glowing eloquence, and
left the path Of the speaker red behind him.
This production viii add new lustre to the al
ready dazzling crown of its author.
The exercises of the graduating class, on
Thursday forenoon, were Of high order The
parts were good-sensible talk on live subjects
delivered with spirightliness and vigor. The
music for the occasion was furnished by the
Quintette Club, consisting Of four members of
the graduating class, under the direction Of
Mr.. Wilder of this city. Some of your read
ers viii remember the interest with which this
club was listened to the past winter at Lewis
ton and other places. 's@3 9''A .i'ls
Thursday afternoon six of the present class
--Afessrs. Bartlett, Jacobus, Moore, Morgan
Pope and SteyeEs-were ordained as missiona-
ries,-two Of them to go to California, the 9th
-ers to Kansas and Iowa.
Rev. Mr.. Field of this city, preached racy
and telling sermon on the ."laying of new
foundations Rev. Mr. Halves Of Philadel-
phia, gave a sensible and impressive charge,
and Prof Harris gave the Right Hand.
The friends and patrons of the Seminary
feel that this school of the prophets is no lon.
i ger one of the "lesser lights" and while they
are glad. that the fame Of the Professor in The
ology has gone abroad, they rejoice that he has
declined tempting offer to 60 to an older in
stitution. The Congregational polity is the
basis of free government, and all connected
with this Seminary evince determination t.
stand firmly on that foundation, confident thai
Liberty and the Cross are destined to pervade
and regenerate society. 80 AEN

gB Justice" sends us a sharp article against
the law of Congress exempting certain nation
al securities from taxation; and virtually
recommending its disregard. We decline to
publish. In doing SO we appreciate all the
evils of which the writer complains; but in
meeting these evils we must be careful that we
do not break the national faith with those who
came forward in the national extremity and
loaned their money, while the men who now
complain the loudest were denouncing them as
fools and madmen for letting out their money
on such securities. Like granting high boun-
ties to volunteers, the Government deemed it
necessary to exempt certain bonds from taxa
ton in order to secure The means of carrying
on the war; and it is safe to assert that, but for
this exemption, the material sinews of war
would have been cut off. The faith of the ma
ton is pledged, and we cannot lend our COL
umns to encourage any reputation of that

Chronicle and Sentinel has the following sensi-
bic words on the positionand duties ofSouthern-
ers. They afford one of the indications that the
nucleus of healthful public sentiment exists
in Georgia. - - %EBsA
The lately revolted States now occupy. a pro
dictionary position. If they attempt to perpet-
uate the spirit of the slave code by unfair
Constitutional provisions or Legislative enact
ments; it they seek to fasten on the people of
the State the burden of the rebel war debt. If.
IN fine, they labor to effect by fraud what
they failed to achieve by force, it viii, be
source OF endless trouble to our whole people,
we must bring our policy and our sentiments
INTO harmony with the spirit of American in
situations as they are now established, or else

in war. The nation, win judge us by our acts
rather than by our oaths Of allegiance or orr

greater prosperity to the South than during

There has been a very prevalent impression
at the North that the freed negroes of the
South are supported at the expense of the
Government, and that this class of people
alone are pensioners upon. the bounty Of the
government. This impression isbyno means
correct. SPhe negroes to a greatgextent, have
resorted to labor and support themselves,
while onthe other hand the whites refuse to
work and are subsisting upon the charity of
the government. aaoV saieF
