HIGHEST FLOOD KNOWN.
The greatest freshets previous to this time
were those of 1926 and 1S47. There was
hardly ten inches difference between these
floods. In 1S47 the water rose nearly to the
top of the lime kiln, or about ten feet above
the present height Of the bridge.

The Disffanchised.

At the suggestion of many of our readers
we republish the following, showing what
persons are affected by the provisions OF the
constitutional Amendment and the Sherman
bill in regard to exclusion from the ballot
box. The following persons are excluded:
LIST. All persons who before the war, were
members of Congress, or officers Of the Uni
ted States, and afterwards engaged IN the
rebellion.
I'd. All persons who, prior to the war,
were executive, legislative or Judicial OH
GERS of the State, and took the like oath,
and engaged in the rebellion.
This embraces Governors, members OF the
Legislature, and judicial officers from .
Judge of the Supreme Court down to JUS
tice of the Peace, who, at any time, held the
Office and took the oath and afterwards en-
gagged in the rebellion.
Who, then, are not excluded 1st No
one is excluded because he held an office un-
der the Confederate States from President
down, it he does not fall within one of the
excluded classes above specified. The SIM
pie fact that lie was Confederate Senator
or Confederate General, or that he took all
to support the Constitution of the Confed-
crate States, does not exclude him.
.. No State or county officer is excluded
on account of his having held the office and
taken the oath and engaged in the rebellion,
if he were not an executive, legislative or ju-
dicial officer. Therefore, neither . lawyer,
sheriff, clerk, tax collector, receiver, county
treasurer, coroner. surveyor, constable or
road commissioner is excluded.
8. AS no man under twenty-one years of
age, when the war began, held any such Of
fee as disqualified, and none. of them took
the oath to support the Constitution of the
United States during the war, and as the
war commenced nearly six years ago, no man
under twenty years of age can be ex-
cluded.
4th. Militia officers are not excluded.
9th. The whole mass of our people who
fall within none of the excluded classes
above mentioned are free from the disquali-
ication, and may vote and hold any Office in
the States without regard to the part they
took in the war.

Maximilian in Mexico.

The French have left Mexico, the Liberals
have occupied the country as fast as they re-
tired, and still Macmillan remains behind.
He is said to have moved out of the Capital,

head of few thousand troops, to reinforce
Miramon, who had sustained shghtreverse
Whatever may be the issue of these ignoble
conflicts in the interior, it would appear that
Macmillan is cut off from the world, for
some time to come at least, without any
chance of escape. His enemies, the liberals,
encircle him on every side, the North, the
South, the East and the West, and his fate
depends on the small chance of winning in
Vulnerable petty conflicts in the field, and
thus propping up day by day tottering
throne. The first act of the Mexican Empire
is over, the curtain has fallen, and all is dark
behind the scenes. What further develop

solidate the empire of the New World and

be felt throughout all future ages and make
his name like that of his ancestors, immor-
tai. However that may be, it is even still
greater mystery why, after the empire has
confessedly collapsed and all these dreams
must now be over, he could remain behind
and degenerate into o Mexican partizan
chieftain.-M o. Picayune.

Weak.kneed Yankees.

Under the above name, the Galveston Bull
etin administers we'll deserved rebuke to q
specimen of class which has disgraced it
self and greatly obstrueted the progress of
liberty and free thought. The object of the
Bulletin's criticism was an agent of Ken
lucky carriage builders firm, who on visit
ing Galveston, had his circulars struck off at
the Bulletin Office, but requested that its i'm
print should not be put to them, as it would
raise prejudice against him for dealing with
journal friendly to the Union cause. The
Bulletin adds:
Men in the North ask the Union men of
the South to be plain and outspoken-to
wear their faith on their sleeves for Confed-
crates to pick at 1t is right. Every man
ought to have manhood enough to respect
fully avow his principles. But how differ
ent is the conduct of some Northern men
when they land on our wharves, and fairly
embark in the business of making money
The longest Grape streamers, on the recent
Johnson obsequies, were worn by men who
had not yet parted with the aroma of Weth-
ersfield onions, and whose accent betrayed
the nativity of Connecticut. These men are
hatterers and hypocrites they insult us by
playing on our assumed weakness. They
lack the manhood that makes character re-
spectacle. They are despised alike by all
manly men among Confederates and Fede-
rails.

Since the Alexandria election, some nifty
negroes who participated in that movements
have been discharged by their employers.
BARRIERS who were conspicuous In foilow-

decreasing day by day, and already the idle
and dissolute begin to collect at street cor
ners in excited groups denouncing in bitter
terms their former employers. 1t foresnad-

kindly relations, and calls for the gravest
consideration on the part ofthe authorities,

people that if they vote to give themselves
liberty, eternal rest from their bondage OF
soul as well as body, we, the rebels, will dis
charge you just as the rebels in Alexandria
are doing. You, colored BARRIERS and others,
dependent upon labor or custom, will starve
to death if you undertake to exercise your
rights as citizens of the United States, is the

up to the polls and vote, we (the rebels will

miltary Government and its Necessity.

Military Government ana It's Necessity
The necessity of thorough and well
sustained government is apparent to
every candid observer of the situation
of affairs at the South. The unsettled
condition of the country, and the wide
spread bankruptcy Of the people, has
produced set of desperate men in al
most all localities of the south, who
commit acts Of greater or less atrocity
according to their power. In some
sections no colored man is allowed to
own horse, and ifan industrious freed
man chances to secure one for the Gull
tivation of his crop, it is taken from
him by armed and violent men. The
worst feature of the case is, that in many
instances these desperadoes are known
to the lawful conservators of public
peace who either have not the courage
or the power, to execute any sort of
process against them.-Not only is this
true, but officers are not unfrequently
compelled by Whist they dignity with
the name of public sentiment or feeling,
to perform acts, violating the tenor if
not the letter Of law. This appears so
plainly, in some regions as to produce
almost reign ofterror. Wehave even
heard of instances in which freedmen
have been compelled by threats, to take
certain steps in political direction and
promise votes and influence to certain
parties in the matter of reconstruction.
These is scarcely county in the state
or SO far as we know, in the entireSolth,
In which the necessity fora stringent
administration of law, by the strong
arm of military power is not necessary.
This military government will be the
very best possible preparation of all
classes for a Just and thorough recon
struction. 1t will check the arrogance
of one class and show them that there
is still power in the government, for the
administration of any law that may be
enacted, and at the same time will
strengthen and encourage loyal union
men to stand up more openly and square
ly for the right. These men have been
cowed and disheartened by long OPP
preston, SO that it scarcely seems actual
to them that they are to be allowed any
actual freedom or power. They have
almost lost the confidence they once
possessed in the U. S. Government by
the wearisome delays and uncertainties,
of the past two years, and the treason
of Andrew Johnson.-The sight of the
old flag supported and sustained by
bayonets will gladden. their eyes not a
little. Let US have a thorough and
impartial military government Union

ABLE BODIED MEN.-One of the
facts brought out by the war, but never
before suspected, was the fact that a
very large number of the men of the
country between the ages of eighteen
and thirty-fve were physically unsound.
1t almost seemed that there were no
healthy men; but there is the consola-
ton which misery always finds in hav-
ing company. Other countries are as
unfortunate as our own. The discus
sions in France about proposed changes
in the army are bringing out curious
statements about the physical unsound-
ness OF the French. The Paris cores
pondent of the London Times says that
the number of men whom Napoleon
proposes to take every year for his army
will require nearly every able-bodied
young man which the country can pro-
duce. Very many of the young men
who are obliged to draw lots every year
and are liable to serve as recruits in the
order of their numbers are registered
by the medical inspectors. In 1864,
out of 325, 200 men liable to serve, more
than 100000 were rejected. Of these
1906 were under the standard hight /;
30,524 had consumption, weak consti-
buttons and the like; 1898 were born
defective or had hernia or something
equivalent; 6,9ss were blind or deaf;
9,loo were humpbacked or fatfooted ;
963 stammered; 4,1o3 lacked teeth
1921 had goitre or scrofula; 2, Jas were
paralytics or lunatics; and 1,346 had
some other incapacity.
