experience of each, if related in

files of that paper and see how it sup
ported the Yergers Times do change,
Colonel, and names change with them,
if men do not always change

no north or south, in this country,

not make intercourse easy and cheap,

fessed to be Free Traders in the South,
II did at all events, but we will never
succeed unless we take off internal
charges as well as imposts, and dear
and poor eonveyances and warehouses
are among the worst of them.
Perhaps would do well to mind my
own business, here, and let yours
alone; kat l cannot help dipping into
Mississippi affairs occasionally, from
force of old habit, and / trust those who
are now endowed with the doubtful pri-

The BOARDS Of Police of MississI

The Boards of Police of Mississippi.
Some time since we alluded to the
fact that out of sixty counties the
Boards of Police of but seven had
made a report to the Auditor of the
number of INDECENT soldiers and their
families who really needed relief
Since then the number has increased
to twenty The Legislature adjourned
on the 9Th or 9th December. Imme-
diately after the adjournment the Gov
ernor caused circular letter to be ad-
dressed and forwarded to the Presi-
dent of the Board of Police :" each
county, infio~.--:--5 them that the Legis-
| lature had made al appropriation of
20 per cent of the taxes for the bene-
nit Of the INDECENT soldiers and their
families. He then issued a proclama-
ton which was published in this paper
and extensively copied in the State, to
the same effect; and warning them
that the time in which they ought to
make their report expired on the Goth
May. Five months since the passage
of the act have rolled away, and but
tloe7ty counties have reported that they
had any INDECENT soldiers needing the
aid The legitimate deduction to be
derived from this is, that only twenty
counties need the profered aid, or the
Boards of Police are very derelict in
their duties Let those who have
heard of the generous appropriation
of our Legislature, and who have ex-
pected to receive its benefits know
where the responsibility rests 1t
would be unfair, manifestly so, to dis
tribute the 100000 to the twenty
counties who have made their report.
Yet, shall those who have stated how
much aid they require be forced to
await the tardy action of more ungen-
erous, more forgetful, and more care
less Boards OF Police of the other
counties? If they hare been notified
CT the Legislatures action, they have
acted criminally in this matter by the
little attention they have paid to it
If they have not heard of it, let them
either take this journal, or some
other paper, or resign their places to
men who read the papers and who
know what is going on in the world
We hope that the press will again call
the attention of the people to this mat
ter, and make the laggard Boards, "un-
der the lash and spur of public opin-
ion." do their duty in this case. We
are authorized to state that for a reas-
enable time the funds viii be retained
to give all delinquent Boards an oppor-
tunity to report; but we doubt, if af-
ter this, any more warnings will be
given, or the time extended.

Editor Of the Clarion and Standard:
In your paper of the 23d inst, is
npblished communication stating
- ene remaIus of the late Gen. Viii
liam BaIksdaIe are deposited in Wash
ington City, awaiting the order of his
friends, and suggesting that they be
conveyed by them to Mississippi for
burial among the people whose hon

the life he gave up on the field of Get
tysburg.
Profoundly affected by these and
similar expressions for the memory of
the lamented deceased, which appear
ed in yours and other journals, and
grateful for the kind spirit which
prompts them, / am nevertheless
compelled to ask the privilege of your
columns to mention, what was doubt
less not known to your correspond

est kindred to remove his body, at an
early day, for consignment to its final
resting place at some appropriate spot
within the limits of his own State,
without taxing the generosity of 9th

A new reform is proposed in Eng
land. The Bankruptcy bill now pend
ing in Parliament provide for the abo-
htion of Imprisonment for debt The
London Times says:
This change, at first desired on
the ground of humanity, NAV now be
defended on the simplest principles of
common sense. fit were cruel to put
q man in prison to lie there forever. it
is absurd to put him there only for the
purpose of taking him out again, and
that at the public expense. With i'm
prisonment for debt falls, as we appre-
bend, almost the whole jurisdiction of
insolvency as opposed to bankruptcy.
A vast amount of time and trouble
hitherto expended in getting debtors
who has no means of payment released
from arrest, will be swept away, and
persons will no longer obtain credit
on the strength of the chance that
some compassionate relative will re-
lease them from Imprisonment. 1t is
impossible to speak too highly of this
change, whether viewed with refer
ence to the principles of political
economy, of law, or of morality.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE SOUTH
FIRM RAILROADS

ERN RAhLROAD@.
This is q question of vital impor-
lance to the people of the South 1t
presents wide field for the investment
of capital, and is one Of the most fruit
full means for developing the resources
Of the Southern States, and building
up their cities. Take a map and look
at the railroad lines in the Gulf States.
Commence at Texas and 60 East by
the Yicksburg and Shreveport Rail
road to Vicksburg. Produce Of all
kinds coming down the Mississippi
river can be landed at Vicksburg and
transported by one continuous line Of
railroad, without any change,to Texas.
In this there is but one point Of trans
fer and re-shipment, that at Nicksburg,
for all articles Of merchandise for
Texas. There is, then, but one com
mission to pay for receiving and for
warding freight after it leaves the first
shipper hands, at St. Louis, Louisville,
Cairo or Cincinnati. All produce for
Alabama, coming down the Mississip-
pi river, can be again shipped from
Vicksburg and carried by cars without
any change, to any point as far east
as Selma, and, in the course Of a
year or son to Montgomery, -
From Montgomery, through freight
cars will be run TO Atlanta and Augusta
and but one change will take place
between Savannah, Ga, and Mont
gomery, Ala, 1t is contemplated to
place a line Of steamships Of frst-class
carrying capacity and accommodation,
between New York and Savannah, and
run fast freight trains between Savan-
nah and Montgomery. A merchant,
then, who purchases his goods in New
York, can ship them to Savannah, Ga,
by steamship line, and in two or three
days thereafter have them on the
Mississippi river, and from thence into
the heart Of Texas, in the time itnow
takes to transport them from \. York
to New Orleans Independent Of the
time gained. when this new arrange
meDt goes into effect, the goods will
pass through the hands of fewer com
mission merchants, and the expenses
will be materially less. The price is
always dependent, more or less, upon
these expenses, and as they decrease,
goods will also fall in price
1t would take more space than we
can allow for that purpose, to discuss
the question in all its various phases.
1t was only our intention to hint at the
revolution that will be made in few
months in the transportation of goods
from the North to the South By this
new order Of things, Mississippi will
be vastly benefited, and Nicksburg
will become point of vast Importance
to her Saw mills will spring up IN
her vast pine-forests, and her water
courses will be lined with factories and
mechanical works of all kinds, that
will develop her resources and keep
within her own limits that wealth
which have heretofore helped SO much
to enrich the parvenues of New Eng
land.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-In the House
sesterday, the tax bill being under con
iyderation, Mr.. Stevens offered an
amendment taking from the Secretary
of the Treasury the appointment of
Special Commissioner of the Revenue.
and providing that the latter officer
shall be elected by Congress. Mr..
Stevens remarked that he offered the
amendment because the Secretary said
he would appoint to office only those
who supported the President. 1t was
time, Mr.. Stevens said, to build a wall
to protect those who support us; the
Secretary was the recreant tool of a re-
creant President
Mr.. Hale, republican, reprOved Mr.
| Stevens, and showed that Congress
has no such power of appointing.
Mr. Delano defended the Secretary
who was not a slave and thus pre-
vented from speaking his sentiments
dare he not have an opinion of his
own? Must we square our opinions
by a regular line at the dictation ofin-
| dividuals ? Just such acts as those of
Mr.. Stevens, were creating a very bad
sentiment throughout the country.
Mr.. Stevens thus discounted, with
drew the amendment, promising to re-
new it Monday.
