A Beautiful Extract.

II is long time since we have read
anything So beautiful in the English Ian.
guage as the following paragraphs. They
are from an address, delivered before n
convention OF the press OF Mississippi, by
Col. ManIon, editor of the Vicksburg
Times. Of all the tributes to the South
and her lost cause which have been pub.
I'shed, we have seen nothing to exceed
this in its touching sweetness:
"Southern nationality is a dream of III.
past. A gulf, beyond which we could
not pass, yawned between US and the rs.
a'izat'on Of our hopes; and though
bright flowers bloomed upon its brink.
and waited US sweet perfume, we could
not cross to gather them.
"Ihe Southern cross no longer CLEANS
out amid the wild Iigot Of battle tho
sword Of the vanquished is sheathed, and
the land is gloomy with the harmless SO.
pulcbres Of our martyred dead. But
when years upon years shall have passed
away-when the last of the present gen.
GRAFTON sleep with their fathers, ana new
forms throhg the old familiar places
when faction shall have hushed and ius.
tce hold the scales-theu, as brgh, a.
day and IA free from blemish and s,ais
will stand forth in bright relief upon the
scroll of historic lame, the record Of the
South, dearer 10 the hearts OF her chill.
dren now in the hour of sorrow. than
when, on the march to victory, sh Q won
the admiration Of the world. PiIprims
from other lands shall tread, with rever.
end step, above the spo, where moulders
the dust OF our loved and lost; wbile
those who are to follow us will cherish Al
household gods the names of those. who
carving way through the fiery path Of
war, have written their names where thew
can never die. The principle for whi:h
so many laid down their lives may not bs
recognized until their names have grown
feeble on the tongue of friendship, and
been dropped, like dead silence, from the
ear OF the world. But it will struggle
back from the hollow bosom that once
b'ed for it, and ascend the heights Of gov.
ernment. And when the faithful histori.
an shall descend into the vaults of the
dead past, in quest of traditions of liberty
he will then discover TO whom the world
is indebted for their perpetua;ion."

That's So.

correspondent Of the Chronicle d
SenHnel, discussing the most fas.ible mode
OF obtaining release from the general and
oppressive burden OF debt. says truly:
The best and sarest ,soy to act relief
isfor every able bodied man to 90 to work
at something and,6y industry, each and
every yJdmity ,oiH be relieved. Deb,s can
be paid very fast with the pre,en, high
prices of farming products, and most men
can pay onefourth of their indsbt cd ness
this winter even with one third Of cotton
crop; and, where they cannot, and have
done the best they could, they will no. be
sIed.
Many debts should be reduced heavily.
The people have lost their slaves, and
much OF other property, and every credi.
tor should feel willing 10 give up a part
o' ths'r claims; but these things should
be by mutual consen, OF parties.
=
am surprised to see so many men
want to hold on to large bodies OF land,
and remain in debt too. Better give
their creditors par. Of the land and rid
themselves Of debt, for there is nothing 90
depressing to mans spirits as to bs in
debt. Small farms, with plenty OF guano
and good farming implements, are mucn
more profitable, with less risk and more
satisfaction.
Let the negro 60, for be will not work
on farm at best. The more OF them on
farm the less is made in proportion to
expenses. The sooner we get c'sar Of
them the better for Us. JUSTICE.

The Connecticut Election,

The Connecticut election last Mon
day, resulted in decided and graft
flying triumph to the Union party,
against most determi ned and despe-
rate struggle OF the false democracy, The
opposition had popular cadidate for
Governor, Mr.. English, who during the
war proved himself true Union man /;
but the fact that his triumph would
have let into power as disloyal set Of
men as ever lived in South Carolina,
nerved the Republicans to work all the
harder for his defeat.
Our telegraphic dispatches, yester-
day morning, indicated the result pretty
plainly but the yesterdays papers
printed near the field of action give re-
turns from all but ten towns, Civ
ing Hawley 700 majority for Governor,
which the remaining towns, it is esti-
mated, will swell to about 900 The
majority, both in the popular vote and
in the Legislature, is less than last year:
butt is large enough for all practical
purposes, and amounts to areal substan-
tial victory, over which We most hearth
ly rejoice.
The Union majority in the House will
be about SO, and in the Senate, IA. The
use of President Johnson's name was
freely used on behalf OF the opposition,
while the detection Of Postmaster Cleve-
land and few other Union men,
and the popularity of English among
Union men, account for the apparent
loss. The mass of the conservative Re
publicans stood by the Union guns, and
saved the good Old commonwealth.

EUREAA.-We met Jones, the broker,
on Washington street this morning, but
instead of clasping the hand OF the
grizzly, wrinkled Jones of the present,
we grasped the digests Of the fresh and
buoyant Jones Of twenty years ago.
We could not account FOR the change.
Experience, alas admonishes US that
neither new tile from Aborn's nor a
new suit from Messengers, will make an
old man young. After 8 few words of
congratulation my friend explained. He
had tried the thousand aud one prepara-
tons for restoring gray hair to its orig
inal color, with discouraging results. A
friend recommended Knights Oriental
Hair Restorer-he gave it trial, and
now stood before me, walking adver-
tisement Of its matchless virtue.

ROwDYGsM IN RUTLAND.-We desire to
call the attention of our town authori-
ties to nuisance which for the credit
of the town ought to be abated We
allude to the renting Of our town hall
to strangers who come among US to
give entertainments, many of which are
OF a moral and instructive character,
and then furnishing no means of pro-
tecting them and those Of our citizens
who patronize them, against the an
noyance of loafers ana overgrown boys
who take especial pleasure in making
the place hideous with their hooting,
stamping and low rowdyism.
The Hall should be rented for no pur-
pose which can not be approved by the
authorities and when rented the rep
utation Of the town saved by placing
therein police force sufficient to pre-
serve order and decorum from all. We
trust that in future this matter will be
looked after.
