No Paper until Friday.

In accordance with custom that
dates back to the days Of Faust, the
employees of this Office will observe
Christmas, and consequently no paper
will be issued from this office until
Friday morning. After the interval OF
rest, we will resume our labors with
freshened energies-determined to
keep the Clarion up with the times.
There is no employment more arduous
than that of publisher of or compos-
itor on a daily morning paper, and we
feel quite sure that our readers will ex-
cuse suspension for two days toward
the close of the year.

HAS SOME SENSE LEFr-The Gin

HAS SOME SENSE LEFT.-The Gin
cinnati Commercial is the only Repub-
ican paper of any note that opposes
the popular radical doctrine of clothing
Chief Justice Chase with the appoint
ment of Internal Revenue officers, and
Provisional Governors of the unrepre-
sented States. The Commercial thinks
Chase should be clothed in imperial
purple at once. There will no longer
be any necessity of judicial ermine If
the resolutions of Kelly and Ward be-
come law If some one can be found
and the Commercial would not like to
swear he cannot) to introduce bill
authorizing him to make the laws, as
well as decide upon them, and execute
under them, we shall have the Dictator
full fledged, and it will not be of the
least consequence who is next Presi-
dent, but it might be of the very first
importance to know who is to be the
next Chief Justice.
The Commercial has some sense left.
Though decidedly radical in tone, it is
not willing to see a Jacobin dynasty
overthrow the government. ..

The Vfcksburs Calamity.

To a mail agent on the Southern
Railroad, and also to Mr. John G.
eastman of the Vicksburg Times Office
are we indebted for copies of a special
edition of the Times of yesterday,
from which we transfer to our columns
an account of the great calamity that
has befallen our sister city. The
property destroyed must approximate
to two millions; some lives were lost,
and there is uncertainty as to the fate
of others The very best business
portion of the city has been laid in
ashes, and hundreds are houseless and
homeless. The sufferers not only
command the sympathy, but deserve
the active assistance of the people of
the State. Let ia ekson be the first to
lead off in coming to the help of so
noble sister in this her hour of dis
tress. Let the Mayor appoint some
suitable persons to wait upon our citi-
zens at once, and let whatever may be
contributed be forwarded immediately
to the authorities of Vicksburg. And
thus we will show how substantially
we sympathize with a generous but
now afflicted community.
Since the foregoing was written, the
following has been received from oul
worthy Mayor:

The terrible and distressing situation in
which the people of our sister city are left,
from the great calamity which has just be-
fallen them by the great fire, calls for the
immediate relief and warm sympathies of
all our community. The prompt, liberal and
generous manner in which the people of
Vicksburg have always gone to the aid of
suffering communities, demands our atten-
ton. hope all our citizens will be willing
to meet and devise ways and means for re-
heving those so suddenly distressed. Any
suggestions from our citizens as to the time
of meeting and mode for giving relief, will
be thankfully received.

SLANDERING Us AGAIN.-Greeley is
at his old trade-villifying the South.
A recent number of his paper contains
an article attempting to show that
throughout the Southern States there
is now and always has been contempt
for law, and an impotence of it's re-
straints which led and leads to con-
slant shootings and Standings. Then
it asserts that sit is the military force
of the United States which preserves
them (the Southern States) from de-
struction at the hands of their own
violent population
Now we have no idea Mr.. Greeley
believes this preposterous assertion
He knows very well the statement is
false-that we are law abiding peo-
pie, and the crimes of our section sink
into insignifcance when compared
with the record of wrong doing at the
North that is to be found in the col
umns of the Tribune. It is time Mr.
Greeley was doing the South justice.
BY misrepresentation and direct false
hood he and his co-workers in the
negro business have reduced US to pow
erty, and as he himself must soon be
arraigned before that bar where there
is no shutting, no perfdy-"where
we ourselves are compelled even to
the teeth and foreheads of our faults
to give in evidence" he should be
preparing to cut the corrupt currents
of this world that renders our ears and
eyes SO partial

The Congressional Excursionists
who left Washington several days
since will arrive in Memphis this
morning, where they will be received
by the authorities and a public dinner
rendered. From Memphis they will
proceed to New Orleans. A special
train is to meet them at Canton day
after tomorrow. 1t is understood
they will stop in Jackson one day, and
we learn that the State and CITY au-
thOrities are taking steps for their en-
tertainment. There are about seventy
in the party. We learn that Gov.
Sharkey, Gen. Alcorn, and other
prominent Southerners accompany the
excursionists. We hope that every IA
cility will be afforded the tourists for
ascertaining the real condition of the
South and the temper of her people /;
and we cannot but believe that the
general result will be favorable, and
that they will return to their seats with
many of their radical notions mod
ified- So persistently and systemat-
ically have we been misrepresented by
agents of the Government whose
tenure of office would seem to depend
upon the extravaganza of their state
ments, that we are truly glad that the
aw-makers themselves have deter
mined upon personal investigation.
We welcome them to Mississippi.

Good Friday in Rome.

A correspondent of the New York Franco.
American. writing from Rome, gives the fol-
lowing account of one of the ceremonies oc.
curing there on Good Friday. and which
commentaries the washing of the feet of the
twelve Apostles by the Savior
'The Holy Father gave this morning,
from the balcony of the Vatican, the first
Pontfcal benediction to the people kneeling
in the square below. On this occasion it is
that, every year, is read anew the bull which
is specially directed against the usurpers of
the ecclesiastical domains. After the bene.
dction, his Holmes went to St. Peters to
wash the feet of the twelve Apostles. These
individuals are poor priests from various
countries, clad entirely in white. not except
ing the head covering, which is of a very
curious, sugar loaf form. The ceremony
took place in the apsides of the Basilica, to
the right of the high altar.
The Pope entered'the church, accompanied
by his ordinary attendants, in very brilliant
costumes. He took his seat on throne,
and the Cardinals arranged themselves on
high benches on either side. The Apostles
occupied a raised platform on the right Of
the Pope, and were in full sight of the pub
lie. Opposite them were the places reserved
for sovereigns and for the diplomatic body.
Both were filled. The ex-king of Naples
was not, however, present. The Pope, after
having recited and chanted prayer, rose,
and with all his train, went upon the plat
form where the Apostles were. Then he
himself washed the feet of each priest in the
gilded basins, one being specially allotted for
each of the Apostles.
The moment the feet were taken from the
water, the Pope placed on them long and
fine towel, after which one of the Cardinals
wiped them. All then proceeded to the grand
hall Immediately over the vestibule of St.
Peter. There the twelve Apostles are seat
ed at we'll served table, placed on a plat
form, and about four feet high, in order that
they may be seen by the people, who pass in
compact order through the room
The Pope wore white robe and small
CANAL edged with ermine. After putting
on finely embroidered white apron, he be-
gan to wait upon the guests, placing before
each one three dishes, exclusiveof soup
He went and came with great ease, walking
erect and appearing finely.
| was leaning against the railing. He
was so near me that his clothes rubbed
against my hands. He looked younger than
many of the Cardinals who followed him, or
who, bent by age, stood still.
When all the Apostles had been attended
to the Pope said the Benedicite, and after
momentary examination of all present, with
drew. As he left the hall some persons,
mostly strangers, shouted, Long live Plus
IX.' But l heard no cry. as upon former
occasions, Long live the Pope King 1t is
estimated that 10000 persons marched
through the room'during an hour, passing
along an aisle from thirteen to sixteen feet
wide"
