GOVERNOR MILLER's MESSAGE.

The farewell message delivered by Gov
ernor Miller ut the State Capitol on Mon
day evening last, is u valuable document,
replete with facts of interest TO every one
concerned in the Welfare of Minnesota
Like everyt, ing emanating from him, the
message is clear, matter-of TACT, and imam.
oiguous. We only regret that the time At
which it was received, and the crowded
state Of our columns, prevent our publish
ing it entire. Die Pioneer gives the follow
ing resume of some Of its features:
The receipts for the year, including the
au cunt on hand December l, 1864, were
$4s9, 100 IL, and the expenditures $4lu-
3l8 80, leaving balance Oh baud of $72,-
8Ol 86. The floating debt, the Governor
announces, as Gu ncelled. s-5-y,
Entries Ut the various Land Offices in the
State for the year amount to 6O4, 982 acres,
an increase of 139, 232 acres over the pre-
vious year, anu including railroad lands,
one million acres were sol4 in 1865 The
logs scaled reached the enormous number
Of 90, 1888, 252 feet, an increase Of l49,
676, 1888 over 1864. OF school lands "a,
1917 acres were sold for $l4S,925 O5.
The school fund already lacks less than
seventeen thousand of reaching million

Henry Ward Beecher says that the
freedmen of the South must make
friends with the white population or
be ground to powder, and the New
York Sun, touching the same subject,
remarks that the cOlOred people of
the United States can never 'elbow'
their way to what they believe to be
their rights They must strive by a
modest demeanor, coupled with true
self respect, to multiply the number OF
their white friends, so that in the end
complete Justice may be done them by
free and willing hearts and hands,
These observations coming from
sources nti-Southern and radical,
show that the leading abolitionists are
beginning to learn the obliteration OF
slavery did not wipe out our feelings
nor the fixed line of distinction between
the races. The negro can get along
very well with us when the radicals
concur with Beecher, and we are per
mitted to manage our own affairs with
out bureaus. The negroes, by close
and assidious labor, will elevate them
selves and secure the confidence o.
their former owners, but whenever
they NEEDLE in politics and listen to
the agitators of New England, they
will, as Mr.. Beecher says, 'be ground
to powder"

To the Memory of j. J. Doty.

The committee, appointed by Eureka
Masonic Lodge No 81, to draft resolutions
and a suitable obituary on the death OF Bro.
J. J. Doty, beg leave to make the following
report, through its chairman, Bro. James W.
Wade
Hon. Jacob j. Doty died at the residence
o his SON. Jas b. Doty, in Holmes county.
Miss, on the POD day of July. A. d. 1866.
The deceased was born in Onslow county,
North Carolina, Sept. 10th, A. ID. l795; emil
grated to West Tennessee in 1881, thence to
Yalobusha county, Miss, in 1886, where he
filled the office of Judge of probates. He re-
| moved to Holmes county in 1912, and settled
| in the neighborhood of Richland, where his
name has been familiar to every Mason from
the Youngest Entered Apprentice i'll the n.
E. corner OF the Temple TO the Grand High
Priest within the Sanctuary, ever since he
was made a Mason, in North Carolina, in
1897 OF 8 was first Master of Eureka Lodge,
| No 81, and to the brilliant, impressive man.
ner of his work, much of the prosperity of
this Lodge is doubtless due.
His brightness and intelligence as Mason
were not confined alone to this Lodge. As
Grand Lecturer of Mississippi they became
common property of the State at large
therefore,
Resolred, BY Eureka Lodge No. 6l' LIST.
That in the life of Bro Doty, an intellectual
charm and moral beauty were lent to Ma
sonry that advanced her Temple and thrilled
the hearts of her votaries, worthy OF re-
membrance and imitation in time to come.
ID That for his long, sad affection and
death we sorrow as Solomon for Hiram
Abiffe and whilst we murmer, not at the
Great Masters designs, we deeply feel ouI
loss.
Sd That, as a token of our sorrow, We
wear the usual badges of Masonic mourning
for thirty days, and to his memory we erect
a monument with suitable inscriptions.
4th. That this notice of his life and death
and these resolutions be published in the
Clarion, a paper published in Jackson, and
copy be furnished the Secretary of the Grand
Lodge of Mississippi, with the request that
it be laid before that body at its next Com
| municatiOQ.

herr he cried. ssLet the death of her
Youngest son fall as the peaceful visi-
tation of Thy will upon her bereaved
heart!
Voicing his prayer in groans, he lay
with closed eyes. Dr. Hartly walked
softly around the room, and whispered
to Mrs Lawton:
GAS he seems quiet and is probably
sleeping, we had better leave him
He lay for hours in this half-sleep-
ing state On awaking, he found him
self. as he supposed, alone. Bitter
sobs burst from his lips, as he called
to mind the loved ones he was so soon
to leave behind.
Il cannot die, cannot die Away
from home-among strangers no
gentle sister to soothe the long weary
| hours of pain and ennui r.
His repinings were interrupted by
a gentle voice: Poor boyi you are
weary and eart-sick, and feel your
desolation. Can fill a small portion
of a mothers place in your heart?
too, have darling son. far away in q
distant hospital among strangers. My
poor, poor Edward lies on just such :
lonely bed as yours
Mrs. Lawton had returned uneX
pectedly, to find DR. Hartly, overcome
by fatigue, quietly sleeping in the hall
Mrs Welsh, who going to the doc
repeatedly still found her patien
sleeping, had taken anap in her larg
arm chair Then it was Major Bartol

thought, quite alone.

i'The Approaching Crisis in America

A very singular article under the
above caption appears in the London
Spectator, which during the war oc-
casionally attracted much attention
for its sound reasoning and correct
information touching the war in this
country. The Spectator belongs to
the Sumner school of politics and
says the contest between the aristo-
cratic and democratic constitution OF
society, once more menaces the re
public, if not with ACKNOWLEDGMENT, at
least with civil war Il is the detibe-
rate belief Of many Of the most erpe-
rienced men IN america, the Spectator
declares, that If the election to be held Z"
Noyem5er terminates IN fauor Of the Pres
ident, q resort to force cannot be dVoided
for many eoeeks, and that # they do not,
the Presidential election Of 1868 ao'lt be
the signal for a reneaoal Of operations IN
the field. While affecting to deprecate
another laceration of the country by
war, the Britisher proclaims that the
radicals cannot submit, cannot see
the result Of a gIeat war cancelled
and the legislature remodeled by the
act of the Executive alone, without
| an appeal which it will be impossible
to confine either to votes or words.
While trusting for the best, we con
| cur with the Louisville Journal, that
the extreme violence of political par
tisans bodies no good to the future OF
our country We are reluctant to be
lieve it, and yet we are compelled to
think that there are PERSONS who ARK
seeking in every possible way to rouse
the worst passions of the people into
a state of frenzy in order to bring Oh
the disintegration of these States
Their conduct is inexplicable upol
any other theory. Their words arr
calculated to excite the extreme ha
tired of sections and Of different class
es against each other. They use thu
vilest language they can employ, an'
are ever ready to call up the remem
brance of every circumstance bayln;
tendency to goad the people to mad
ness.
This thing is becoming serious, an
calls for the thoughtful considerable
of every man in the United States VIII
does not want to see a civil war burs
upon this country. 1t calls for tn
profound consideration of farmer;
merchants, mechanics, and bushes

As they value peace and the blessing

THE COMING NORTHERN ELECTIONS.
WASHINGTON letters announce that the
ensuing fall elections are to be carried
NJ all hazards for the Administration
party. There will be no Connecticut
slip up. The Executive has been IN
formed by those in frequent converse
with him that such fatal errors must
not be allowed to occur IN any State
where they can be prevented, and
there is the best possible authority for
asserting that he holds the same view.
His new position in cutting loose from
those whose acts tended to perpetuate
disunien and make disruption of the
States inevitable is said to be fully
realized by him.

sociates, in all the relations of life, by his
active public spirit, exemplary courtesy and

Resotred, That while we bow in humble
submission to the fat of Him who doeth all

a void in this community and in this Lodge
which can never be adequately filled.
Resolued, That we sincerely condole with
the family OF the deceased in the sore be-
reavement, which they sustain by reason OF
their affective dispensation OF Divine Pro-
violence, and commend them to the kind
protection of the Father of Mercies, the only
sure defence in every time of trouble, who
never failed, nor forsaketh those who put
their whole trust and confidence in Him.
Resotred, That as testimonial of our re-
spectful affection for our departed brother,
we will wear the usual badge of morning
thirty days
Resolred That these resolutions be spread
on the minutes of the Lodge, and that a copy
of them be furnished to the afflicted family
of the deceased, and to the papers published
in this town.

A FEW REMARKS FOR Thinking
PEoPLE-When we know that mercury and
mineral poisons, although they may cure dis
ease, are certain to leave permanent injury
behind them, and when we know that bleed
ing always debilitates, we certainly not only
act unwise to ALLOW ourselves to be thus
treated, but mock our Creator, who never
put more blood in our veins than he intended
should remain; nor in our creation was it in
tended that we should be fed with mineral
poisons, for it is laid down in Holy Writ
that there shall grow all trees, whose fruit
shall be for meat and the leaf for medicine T.
thus, in the creation of all things we We're
provided with the means of sustaining life
and healing the sick,
Then why not sack such remedies as nave,
by the science and skill of mankind been
prepared from pure vegetable substances,
and will not leave permanent injury behind
them. Such are Robaek's Sugar Coated
Blood Pills, Blood Purifier and Stomach
Bitters
