A case was recently decided in New
York by the Court of Appeals show
ing legislative power over tavern Ii
censes. In that State the license bust
ness was placed in the hands of the
Board of Commissioners, who had
power to revoke licenses already
granted and to use discretion in grant
ing new ones. There was also large
addition madeto the fees charged fo1
granting licenses, and stringent re
strictions concerning selling liquors
on Sundays. The power of the com
missioners were questioned, and the
matter finally came up for decision IN
the Court of Appeals, where it has just
been decided that the act is constitt-
tional, and that the State Legislature
has entire control Of the license cues
ton, and may at any time proceed to
new legislation, making radical
changes in the terms of licenses al
ready granted.

An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth
a Pound Of Cure.

The destructive fires at Vicksburg,
Grenada, Brandon, Lexington, Crys-
tai Springs, Atlanta, and the more
recent fire in our own city, should adj
monish us to act with energy in the
adoption Of every possible means for
the prevention of such disasters. For
tunately we have here an efficient Fire
Company, that does noble service on
every occasion but unfortunately theil
machinery is defective and limited
and an emergency may arise when they
cannot do all that will be expected
The company now appeals to the State
and city authorities, and to all proper
ty holders in the corporation for help.
The State has property in Jackson and
vicinity worth at least two millions OF
dollars, and we believe that just ap
preparation will be made to enable the
company to guard the public buildings
more effectively from fire. Insurance
is good thing, and all householders
should avail themselves of it; but in
surance agents will charge smaller
premium where the chances offres are
lessened by well organized Fire
Company, supplied with abundant APP
paratus. What our company requires
now is a small Steam Engine, hooks
and ladders, and plenty of water. The
State has built a public cistern in front
of the Capitol; the city should build
several others.
Now, don't simply say that these
suggestions are timely, but act upon
them. Come forward, and don't wait
to be called upon. Five thousand
dollars must be raised. The city has
given one thousand; the State, we be-
ieve, will give two thousand, and the
citizens will pay the balance. Messrs.
j. & T. Green have led off by subscri-
bling one hundred. If others cannot
give so much, let them give what they
can. Every little helps. We shall
keep the list of contributions in our
columns until the necessary amount is
raised.

Our t'New Plain Case" patented December

Our Metallic Burial Casket, in its simplicity
of design, anGli its freedom from all associations

covered by the best polished plate glass. Its
finishis that of the finest rosewood. The Orna-

silver contrasting with the dark polished
ground work, is of striking and appropriate
elegance.
Over wooden cofins, these Burial Cases and

signs of desire to repudiate the ma

debt is more theirs than ours. And
we venture the further prediction that,
as soon as the Northern people have

about heavy taxation The man then

Our talented young friend Garrett,
of the Canton Mail, has, in his last
issue, one of those slashing editorials
of which his pen is SO prolific, accusing
of sycophancy all who extended
courtesies to the late Congressional
excursionists. Well, we think when
such men as Beauregard and Forrest
and Cheatham, could extend them a
welcome, we lesser "rebels'' ought
not to feel that we have compromised

The New York Evening Post though
a Radical print, does not endorse the
dissenting opinion Of Chase, Wayne,
Miller and Swayne, in the Milligan
case. The Post thinks it might prob
ably have been prudent for them to
have put their opinion on record, but
it adds: ,.#.5. faa
We believe experience during the
last six years has abundantly shown
the whole country the danger and folly
of extraordinary and unusual methods
of administering justice; and hereaf-
ter we hope the people will oblige
their rulers4o adhere to the regular
forms of law The United States
Courts were open in Indiana, and 9TH
er Northern States, for the trial of
criminals; Milligan and others should
have been brought before these courts,
tried and punished according to law.
There is no doubt that they would have
been punished if they were guilty ;
and such lawful sentence, by constitu-
tional courts, would have allayed,
while the unconstitutional trial and
sentence by military commissions only
excited and exasperated opposition
and hatred to the government, and
thus injured the Union cause.

not to be in hurry about ratifying

WADE CoNFEssING HIS ERRoR.-We
see by an article in the Memphis Bull
letin, that Senator Wade recently said
to Judge of our State at Oxford, that
he had wholly misconceived the spirit
and purposes of the South. He had
deemed us animated by fixed, IRENE
diable hostility to Northern people,
and by this apprehension of Southern
sentiment his course in the Senate had
been shaped. He had seen and heard
enough during his sojourn in these
States to satisfy him that he had been
misled, and that his subsequent con
duct would show that he had the man
Illness to confess an error. He told
the truth about the esprit and pur-
poses" of our people. We will see if
he fulflls his promises.
