MESSAGE OF THE governor. OF MIssIssIP-
p1.-The Mississippi Legislature met in ex-
ira session on he 18th. The Governors
message says that the necessities Of the State
constrained him to call the Legislature. 1t
was not special emergency but general
e1igency, resulting from the altered and de-
ranged condition Of our Federal relations and
domestic affairs.
He states that the removal of negro troops
from the State, and the transfer of the Freed
mems Bureau to officers of the regular army
are subjects of congratulation. he deplorcs
the state of the country, and encloses the con
stitutional amendment, but presumes that the
mere reading of it will ensure its rejection.
He recommends the admission of negro testi-
mony in all courts, and requests that provi
sion be made for the education of the indi
gent children of Confederate soldiers, and for
the relief of destitute disabled Confederate
and State soldiers.

Facts VS.. Theories.


"Give me place to rest my lever on, y
says Archimedes, "and will move the world u
"Give me pure and unadulterated drugs u
says Medicus, of the olden time, sand will
cure disease"
In one sense, both of these learned pundits
were the veriest charlatans. They knew there
was no place to rest their lever on, either to
move the world or cure disease. Mechanism
was in backward state, and the medical pro:
fession was but another name for sorcery, and
all the adjuncts of magic filters and charms
of the "evil eye," &c.
But these latter days have borne unto us
somsth;sg more than even superstition and
its crew ever dreamt of in their maddest
philosophy. In these days of practical science,
what was theory of yesterday is fact to-day,
and all the old time notions become as bub
bles in the sun, and burst and break with eve
ry breath we draw.
Let Archimedes shoulder his lever and we
will find resting place for it to move the
world. Let mine ancient Medicus pant and
toll no more for the drugs he so sorely needs,
for we have them at our hand, ever ready to
serve them at his beck.
Refined in the laboratory of DR.. Maggiel,
The finest materials known in the medical
profession are obtainable by any one. His
Bilious, Dyspeptic, and Diarrhea Pills stand
unrivaled, and his Salve operates with magi-
col effect upon burns, scalds, and all sores
and ulcers of the skin.
In fact, we think Maggiel's Pills and Salve
are the wonder of this century, and we are
happy in the thought that many others Of
our brethren of the craft agree with us. We
would earnestly counsel that all families pro-
vide themselves with DR.. Maggiers Prepare
tions at once, and keep them ready at hand.

The Signs are Frightening.
The Richmond Times is actually growir

The Richmond Times is actually growing
hopeful. In its issue of Tuesday, it says:
Adyices from the North indicate an abate.
ment of radical violence. AS is always the
case subsequent to elections, the unity of the
triumphant party is threatened, because Of
those differences upon certain questions,
which are ignored during the canvass in or.
der to MAINTAIN the harmony necessary to
success.
The recent victories of the radicals serious
ly menace their party unity. Many of the
politicians who have assailed the Presiden-
tial policy of Southern rehabilitation, and
given their cordial CO operation to the plan
of Congress, are men Of moderate views, when
compared with Brownlow, Stevens and Wen.
dell Phillips. The brutal disposition of the
latter towards the South is utterly revolving
to them, and there cannot possibly be even
an approach to unanimity in the adoption of
any general policy. Sumner, Butler and
Stevens will insist upon con6scations, negro
suffrage, the hanging of Mr.. Davis, and the
impeachment of Mr.. johnson. The more
moderate men will favor none Of these mad
projects the extreme radicals will be content
with nothing short of the thorough adoption
and execution Of their violent views; and it
is simply impossible for them to command
the strength in Congress and the popular
sympathy necessary to their plans.
It is reasonably clear that MI johnson
does not fear impeachment, and that really
he has no occasion for such apprehensions.
In addition to the fact that his enemies will
be utterly unable to establish a case against
him, sufficiently strong to Justify such an ex-
treme measure, even with the radical masses:
the length Of time consumed in debate upon
the proposition of impeachment, the impa-
tience Of the people under constant agitations,
assisted by the calm and dignifcd attitude Of
the South, will consummatc the incipient
split in the radical organization. There is
even probability that the attempt to force
tho constitutional amendment" upon us
will be abandoned. The Northern people,
seeing in our unresisting attitude of patience
under accumulated suffering and provocation,
a sufficient refutation Of the radical charges
against us, of a belligerent and rebellious dis
position, will cease to be urgent for "gnar
antees" of our faithful allegiance in the shape
of base surrender of our manhood, and an
odious prescription of our most eminent fel
low.cit!Zens.

CONSTITUTIONAL ALLIANCE-Ihe iolloW-
ing is from the Richmond Eraminer OF late
date:
An alliance or compact has been formed
by large numbers Of political parties in New
York, under the above name-the term con
stitutional implying devotion and obedience
~ the Constitution of the United States with.
out alienation or amendment; tho word ALI
ance meaning q Union or league between
political parties who may uuite under the re-
storation policy of President johnson. The
constitution OF the Alliance" is read to each
applicant after taking the following oath,
from which the general meaning Of the or,
ganization may be inferred-the oath must
be taken by members over two crossed
swords:
II solemnly swear in the presence Of q
inst God, to preserve, uphold, protect and de-
fend the Constitution Of the United States
the constitutional and rightful exponents Of
the law. / also solemnly swear that will
when called upon by tho lawful Ares Of the
Octorons. respond to and obey the command:
If the Lines of the Triangles, and will peri
life, suffer imprisonment, loss OF property
and every discomfort, to preserve liberty AND
Justice. and to uphold and defend the Con
stitution ofth United States, the President
Of Of the United States, and the constitutional
and rightful exponents Of the law"
Although scarcely aweek has elapsed since
the above plan Of organization was perfected
vet already three organizations are in exis
tence in New York. Letters have been ad
dressed to conspicuous politicians in vario1Is
.narts Of New York aud other States, detail
ing the proposed plan Of organization, ant
this correspondence resulted in the formation
of G two " Alliances one in Troy and the 9th
er in Buffalo, and from the enthusiasm which
the movement has been hailed, we infer tha
it IS very likely soon to extend Throughout
the United States.

filling the Methodist pulpit in this city for
several days, is physically study for the
thoughtful. BE has few if any living peers.
He has been preaching the gospel constantly,
faithfully and ably for sixty.two years, hav.

each, and lectcred the Sunday School besides.
What living hero? Let the youths of the
present day behold and listen to the exemplil-
fication of the man of God-take heed to his
couusels, and live as he has lived. "Then
shall thy days be long in the land which The
Lord thy God giveth thee," and thou shalt

The Last Good Night.

Close her eye-lids-press them gently
Der the dead and leader eyes,
For the soul that made them lovely,
Hath returned unto the skies;
Wipe the death drops from her forehead,
Sever one dear golden tress,
Fold her 10y hands oil meekly,
Smooth her little snowy dress; -
Scatter flowers Ger her pillow
Gentle flowers, so pure and white
Lay the bud upon her bosom,
There-now softly say, Good Night.
Though our tears flow fast and faster,
Yet we would not call her back,
We are glad her feet no longer,
Tread life's rough and thorny track;
We are glad our Heavenly Father
Took her while her heart is pure,
We are glad he did not leave her
All life's trials to endure;
We arc glad-and yet the tear-drop
Falleth; for, alas we know
That our freside will be lonely,
We shall miss our darling so.
While the twilight shadows gather,
We shall wait in vain to feel
Little arms, all white and dimpled,
Round our necks so softly steal;
Our wet cheeks will miss thepresSure
Of sweet lips so warm and red,
And our bosoms sadly, sadly,
Miss that darling's little head
Which was wont to rest there sweetly;
And those golden eyes, 80 bright,
We shall miss their loving glances,
We shall miss their soft good night.
When the morrow's sun is shining,
They will take this cherished form,
They will bear it to the church-yard,
And consign it to the worm:
Well-what matter? 1t is only
The clay dress our darling wore;
God hath robed her as an angel,
Sine hath need of this no more;
Fold her hands, and Ger her pillow
Scatter flowers all pure and white,
Kiss that marble brow, and whisper,
Once again, last Good Night.

Observation-Disclosures ?--The Charleston
Meps, in one of its recent issues, has the fol-
lowing concluding paragraph Of political ar
ticle:
Disagreeable as the prospect may be, we
are forced to conclude that. without ANY
power in us to control the tide of events, W:
are drifting slowly back into the Union on
the basis Of tho constitutional Amendment
and that We will only cease to occupy our
present anomalous position when we are re-
presented in Congress by men who can takl
the test oath, and when our State Offices ar
filled by men who have never violated al
express oath of allegiance to the United
States"
Drifting into the Union on the conditions
proposed Why, we would ten thnus,nI
times rather that the State should drift OH
into mid.ocean, as far from such a Uuion;'
possible, with every true Carolirian on board!
and, like the officers and crew of the Italian
war steamer Palaestro 60 down in honor rata
er than in disgrace.
No explanation, no excuse, can pallate the
words above written. It is libel on the
people of South Carolina to say that thny
have no power to control the course Of events
they have the power to secure themseIve
from dishcuor and disgrace, by rejecting th'
abominable proposed amendments. Any news
paper advocating such policy requires
watching.-Cclumbia Phoenix, 2lst.
