PROCLAMATION.
EXECUTIVE OFFICER
JACKSON. MISS. ADril 6. 1854


WHEREAS, much painful anxiety and appre-
hension exists in the public mind, resulting
| from the passage of the "Military Bill" by Con-
gress, and the General Order Of General Ord
in assuming command Of the military Dis
trict of Mississippi and Arkansas" and
whereas, In some instances, the regular admin
istration of the State Government has been I'M
settled TO such an extent as to cause some Of
the officers of the State to suspend the functions
of their offices and many citizens are hes
itating, while Others refuse, to pay their taxes
upon the assumed ground that the Tax Col
lectors are not competent officers" and there
fore are not authorized to receipt for the same;
and as other evils and Irregularities may arise
from the uncertainty that exists as to the du-
ties and responsibilities Of officers and citizens
of the State in their present situation-there-
fore, deem it proper to make known that the

of the State. 1t Is true Ii is declared to be pro-
visional only and in all respects subject to
the paramount authority of the United States

made in accordance with the provisions OF
this law, hereby give NOTICE to the Civil
Officers Of the State that their relations and
responsibilities to the Constitution Of the Uni
ted States, to the state Of Mississippi and to
the people remain unchanged, and they will
be held to a strict accountability for the per-
Torrance Of their duties, in carrying out the
provisions Of the laws, for the maintenance OF
the civil Government, and for the full and am |

A SPIRITUAL EXPosE.-The Louis
vile KY, Journal gives an account
of an expose of a spiritualist in that
city, one W. I. Church:
"The way all his manifestations
were brought about was very simple.
Church'S clothes were gotten up a
world too wide for him, aud after the
lights were extinguished--(and all
these things. mind you, reader, were
performed in the dark )--he would
slip out of his coat, vest and boots.
go anywhere about It b room he
pleased, play upon whatever musical
instrument he might have at hand, per-
senate tie Indian, the Swiss girl, an
gels DC, and then return to his chair
where he would resume his clothing
and his original position, and when
one of his confederates brought in the
lights, there would Church be, sitting
as though he had never moved. These
things were wonderful-were inexpli
cable. Many ladies and gentlemen
who should have possessed more
sense, were imposed upon, but some
unbelievers struck q light in the pro
gress of his tricks and brought his
humbuggery to light

TARIFF MAKES STRANGE BEDFEL-
Lows.-Wendell Phillips and Horatio
Seymour are advertised to speak at a
free trade meeting in Cooper Institute
next month.-Bostom Daily Adrerti-
ser, March Is.
This may be strange sight to the
Advertiser managers but to the wool
growers of Vermont it was a stran-
ger and far Sadder sight to see, on the
late vote in the United States Senate
on the wool and woolens tariff, such
bedfelIows as Sumner and Wilson Of
Massachusetts with Salisbury Of Del
aware and McDougall of California.

The State Agricultural Society OF
Vermont, held Its annual meeting GU
the I'd of January, and in the reSoiu-
tons passed respecting the tariff bill
now before Congress, praying its pas
sage, a remarkable admission was
made, namely: Our own WOODS are
lying on our hands uncalled for at
any prices that would pay over half
the cost for production We would
ask Vermont farmers if they think
this fact an especial recommendation
for the greasy Merinos they are so
proud of. Other people can sell their
wool. But we hear that the clips of
two and perhaps three years are
chiefly still in first hands in Vermont
Why? Not because of low tariffs
but because if manufacturers can buy
wool they will let grease alone
When it is bought and sent to the
New York market, it is avoided by
all manufacturers, and the purchase
of these greasy heeces, cleansing then
thoroughly, and returning them to the
market, constitutes a lucrative bust
ness. If Vermont wool growers viii
but tubwash these feece8, they will
save a large amount of excellent ma
nure for use upon their farms, and fine
ready sale at fair price, for tht
stock now on hand. We do not argue
against tariff, but only against grease

Tablet. an organ of the Roman Catho-

the Papal government respecting
Protestant worship in Rome, makes
use of the following strange language;

discovered the cellars underneath to
be on fire. The alarm was immedi-
atelv given. but before the fire engines
could reach the scene Of the c0naagra-

in fifteen minutes from the first dis
Icovery Of the fire the theatre was re

happily succeeded. The injury done
to the hotel by the water was Yer!
