= In our Tuesday issue we referred to
the meeting of the citizens of Carroll eoun-
ty, the proceedings of which we have since
published The names which we find in
the report of proceedings are those of cit
liens of highest worth, and their action is
bound to command the highest respect.
There is much complaint throughout the
State, of grievances in the matter of collec-
ton of debts, but some men can always find
grievances. The voics of a community dis
tinguished for its intelligence and moral
worth is not to be COMPOUNDED with the clam
or of habitual grumblers. These men speak
the words of patient truth and soberness,
But we fear that their appeal to the better
feelings ofthe suing class will be truitless
Such men have no better feelings. Anon
alous as it may seem, the community are
safer from these men under quasi reign OF
terror than under that of law and order, for
how to take every advantage of the law for
selfish ends has been reduced by them to
science. 1t is for protection against the SUI
preme selfshness of such as these that spe-
cial legislation, however it may be depreca-
ted in principle, becomes at some times
not only expedient but necessary, and we
do not recollect a time when a greater ne
cessitv for some such action existed.
This is not case where the embarrass-
ments of the people have grown out of in
considerate speculation, but the indebted
ness which has now become burden is only
such as arises from the legitimate course of
business in a healthy financial condition of
the country. What aggravates the case is
that portion of this Indebtedness is that of
men who hOnorably refrained from paying
their debts in deprecated currency, and
another portion ariseo from the diotresses of
those, or the surviving relatives of those,
whose private affairs fell into embarrass-
ment while they were serving their country.
1t is not now discharge from their debts
that they seek, nor, if they invited it, is this
in the power of the LEGISLATURE to grant, as
they well know. All they ask is such pro
vision as shall save them from beggary, or
enable them to recover in some degree from
their impoverished condition, without i'll
| frinumeut of the constitutional rights of
| their creditors.
The action of the subordinate and supreme
| judicial tribunals, extending over such a
space of time as to give opportunity for ma,
| ture consideration of the constitutional
| points involved, must have enabled our leg
islatOrs to act adviscdly now, and with
! the lights before them" there is no reasona
BILE doubt that a relief measure could be de
vised which would stand the test of tn,
| courts.

y The Tropic, of the 18th, comments at
large upon our article on the subject of the
converting of the Legislature, dissenting
from some of the views expressed. On the
subject of relief" it says:
If any law can be so framed as to avoid
the constitutional objections, and afford the
necessary relief to our unfortunate people.
we would rejoice to see it. We hsve seen
none such yet, and we do not knowthat any
such is practicable. But if there is inven-
tive wisdom among the Lawmakers of the
State to work out such a measure why then
let our patriotic Governor call then togeth-
er The expense to the State would he
heavy, in the present PROSTATE condition of
our finances, but if the people can have a
chance for healthy SPELL and title time
to recover somewhat from their PRESENT dis
tressed condition, they should have the
means afforded them. We are willing to
leave this matter to the sound discretion of
the Governor, who has better opportunities
of knowing what the people of the State
want than we can have. We endorse gem
orally what our contemporary of tie Clarion
says upon this subject.

We have travelled over several of the Nor
thern counties of Mississippi within the
past two months, and have taken particular
pains to inform ourself in regard to the
workings of the Freedmen's Bureau, and it
Is evident, from all we saw and heard, that
those sections of Mississippi that have not
been cursed with the agents of the Bureau,
are far the most prosperous. The Freed
men are happier, work better and seem dis
posed to do their duty and comply strictly
with their contracts. In the immediate
vicinity Of the Bureau agents the freedmen
are not only impudent, but seem determined
to labor as little as possible, and in many
places they seem disposed TO loaf around the
headquarters of these agents, and do moth
ing in the world, except that they are COM
PEELED to do by stern necessity.-Holly

NEWTON COUNTY CoURT.-The Circuit
Court of Newton county closed on Thurs
day after an industrious session of four
days, Hon. H. w. Foote presiding, having
exchanged circuits with Judge Watts, the
State being represented by A. Y. Harper,
Esq, of Scott county, District Attorney.
The local bar was ably represented by J. II.
Campbell, J. n. Huddleston, T. B. McCune
and J. j. Monroe, Esq's. Among the men,
beers OF the bar present from other counties
were Hon. Fulton Anderson of this city,
Hon s. Evans of Clarke county Messrs
Richard Cooper of Rankin, w. H. Hardy and
w. II. Chatfield of Jasper, and J. B. Watts
of Lauderdale All the important cases on
the docket were continued, but a great deal
of old business was cleared off large
number of cases were mol. pros'd The Grand
Jury found a good deal of business to at
tend to, and we understand that quite
number of indictments were found
The recent courthouse election in New
ton county resulted in retaining the seat of
justice at Decatur, and bids are now out for
rebuilding the courthouse, the court having
been accommodated this term in the Bap-
fist church.
We may add that there is good deal of
suing in the county, and much complaint of
the necessity for relief of some kind, but
| public opinion does not seem, as vet. to have
taken definite shape.

Mr.. Johnson, residing not far from Old
Marion, had the misfortune, day before yes
terday, of killing negro man by shooting.
He went Immediately to the Court house to
deliver himself up. He says, he shot him
without intending to do it. We
have heard that Col Zeigler made threat.
that if the civil authorities did not tax,
hold Of the case by ~, m, yesterday, h.
would We infer from that Circumstance
that Col. Zeigler does not understand the
Peace Proclamation as some others do-that
he does not regard the sceptre as having de-
parted from the military. We regret that
he should have made the threat. 1t was
unnecessary. The civil officers do not iced

charge of their duties.-Meridian Messenger,

The circumstances, as the Messenger saws
they are represented by Mr.'Johnson, are,
that the negro advancing upon him in a
threatening manner, he snapped the barrel
of the gun which he supposed to be un-
loaded at him to intimidate him, but made
the unfortunate mistake of swapping the
loaded barrel.
