neigh borhood brought some thirty bales
of cotton to the station house for ship.
ment to Mobile, all of which was seized
by Mr. Mccormack, Government Agent,
as Government cotton. Whereupo1 the
owner of the staple, Rev James Heard,
attempted to gain possession of it by civil
process. Mr.. w H Cherry, the Sheriff Q.
the county, taking the process in hand.
Mr. Heard had probably bought most Ct
the cotton, and hence could not swear
that the whole of it was not Government
cotton. He therefore asked but ten bales
of the Agent, leaving the ownership OF
the rest in allegiance for the time being -
But the Agent determined to hold on to
the whole lot, and placed a guard over 1t,
consisting of eight negro soldiers.
At this the citizens OF the village became
in ndignant. Mr. Heard is gentleman en-
tirely above the slightest suspicion of any
sort OF dishonest dealing He represented d
his county in the late Mississippi Conven-
ton, and they felt it their duty to "stand
up to him. in the maintenance of his
rights. Therefore, when the Sheriff sum
moned them to aid him in executing the
writ in his hands, some eight or ten oil
them armed themselves and accompanied
him to the depot. On their approach the
negro guard took to their heels. Mr. Nc
Cormack, with a perseverance worthy of a
better cause, Immediately telegraphed for
a stronger guard, and company of negro
troops was sent to him.
This took place last Thursday. On Fri
day morning a personal difficulty growing
out of the affair of the day before, took
place between DR. John w Collins, a ply
sician of the village, and Mccormack, in
which the latter was cut with knife by
the former. And here the matter rested

what was in my power to avert The evils
that were upon them and then if we fail
we can have the pleasing reflection that
we did our duty free from all the biases

ment still keeps the military and the
Bureau upon US there will be nothing
with which we can reprosch ouselyes.
The gentleman from Yalobusha Mr..
Brown, urges if we allow the negro to
testify, because he is party to the record
we must allow him to vote if we tax him.
That taxation and representation go to-
gether. This is true in one sense but is
fallacy in the sense in which he uses it

US without our being represented. We

LARORIN THE SOUTH.

The greatest apprehension exists, as to
how the lands of the South, especially OF
the Gulf States, are to be cultivated. We
have depended SO en- tirely on slave labor
| in the past, that it becomes a matter OF
| importance to ascertain to what extent
the labor o. the freedmen can be depend
ed on. in the cultivation of the next crop.
At present we see no reasonable prospect
| for the cultivation of ore half the lands
of the State. A greet part of the freed
men who formerly labored in the fields,
will go TO towns and cities, and endeavor
to live in some other way. A great part
of those who remain in the country, will
not work efficiently, and we think it
| reasonable to suppose that if the lands of
the State are cultivated, and its resources
developed, puch of it must be done by
white men.
DR.. c. K. Marshall of Vicksburg, in a
speech at the Capitol, on Tuesday night,
and in letter since, published in one of
the city papers, proposes a plan for the
encouragemento of immigration, which we
commend to the consideration of the
owners of lands, who are unable to pro-
cure laborers. 1t is to organize Joint
Stock immigration Company. Land, iu-
stead of money, being the capital.
The land to be valued, surveyed and
laid off into lots, to be sold on such terms,
as to induce foreigners to i'm mmigrate here
in colonies.
If the land can be obtained, oil. good
quality and in sufficient quantity, sold on
time and at reasonable prices, we have no
doubt the colonists can be found.
Any plan that would bring to the conn
try an industrious thrifty white popula-
ton should b e encouraged. Itwould add
to the resources of the State. 1t would
give that pre- ponderance to the white
population, indispensable TO secure us
from trouble with the blacks. AS immi,
graz ion increased the price of lands would
advance. Our cities would be built up,
mechanics and manufactures flourish.
We will publish DR.. MarshalPs letter
in our next issue and recur to his plan
hereafter. In the meantime every effort
should be used to make the labor in the
country available Years must el"pee
before the resources Of the State can be
developed by foreigners.

years, have been somewhat rudelv shaken

The Press ON Negro Testimony

With a few exceptions the leading ano
influential papers of the State, favor the
admission of negro testimony, and the
adoption of liberal and ju.t policy Of
| legislation toward the freedmen. We
notice in the last number of the Vicks
burg Journal, edited by Col. Thomas B
Manlove some comments on the recent
action of the Legislature, so appropriate
that, we re-publish them. Col. Manlove
was $50 called rebel officer" was in the
service duling the whole war and was
recognized by all who knew him as a gal
liant officer and an accomplished gentle
man. He has not been noted for sympa-
thy with New England nor disposition
to truckle to federal power. But he has
patriotism enough to rise above the preiu
dices of the hour, and is willing to see
impartial justice meted out to the freed
man:
Our Legislature, by its recent action, in
voting down what the leader of the Mis-
slsslppi press" the jackson News, calls
that monstrous proposition to place the
negro on an equality in the Courts'-has
done q very unwise and foolish thing.
We tell you plainly, gentlemen, that in
less than a year you will be compelled to
do that which you have refused veluuta-
rIly TO do. The negro cannot be protect
ed outside the Courts and we care not
whe her any respec able lawyer in the
State sustains us or not, common sense
and reason does. 1t is well to look this
question plainly in the face, and in dis
cussing it to throw aside the appliances
Of rhetoric and hyperbole. The negro
nas to be protected by the laws of Missis-
sippi or by Federal bayonets. Our Legis-
ialure, b. its action, has chosen the lat
ter. Are the people of Mississippi afraid
to place the negro In the Courts? Do they
regard him as so far superior 10 the
white race as to require stringent laws to
keep him down. If this is not the case,
why such e tempest in a teapot. The
negro is in the Courts now, and he will
stay there, whether the Legislature aceui'
esce or not. The same power that has
decla aced him free, places him there and
why not bow grac efully TO that which
cannot be remsdied, than to act in q
manner which can be of no benefit to
he State.
