Judge KELLY AND HIS MISSION.

Judge Kelly, when engaged in creating
a riot at Mobile few evenings ago,
boasted of the military power which he
had at his back, and after his sudden es-
capade from the speakers stand he was
actually guarded at the Battle House by
n platoon of u. s. soldiers. The Regis.
ter in noticing this fact says, what we all
know, that Mr.. Kelly would have been
perfectly safe without guard. But
safety without guard would not have
served. Mr.. Kelly's purpose He was
anxious not only TO inaame the negro
mind but to create political capital for
his party, and that could only be accom-
plished by showing that the white people
of the South are bloodthirsty and rebel
lious.

PURITANIsM.

A Northern paper says: A New York
minister said in the pulpit not long since
that the Puritans carried their indepen-
dence to such an extent "as to contend
that they would have nothing whatever
imposed on them by authority, not even
an article of dress" If this is a fact,
the Puritans would have made no objec-
ton to The Black Crook, the Menken,
and other exhibitions of this kind, in
which dress is not imposed upon the
participants. Without recommending
the principle in its literal Specification,
It would be we'll for ladies of present
fashionable society, among other Puri-
tanical limitations, to show some indie
pendence in the selection of their dresses.

ImpoRrANT ENTERPRISE.

We learn that General Forrest was to
have left this city last evening for St.
Louis. Many friends of the General
residing in that city will be glad to see
him. II is said that he will look in on
the International Racing Congress now
in session there. He takes a lively
interest in the improvement of stock, and
is one of the best critics Of fine horse
His experience as cavalry leader
brought him into familiarity with the
character, capacity and general capabil-
tiles of that noble animal. The trotting
park now becoming SO popular, on the
fernando road, excites his solicitude
and attracts his support Mr.. Megibben
deserves great credit for his enterprise in
pushing it to its present state of forward
ness and will proceed with all dispatch
10 render it what it should be, an orna-
ment to the city. Such place can
scarcely be dispensed with. So soon
as the labor question is settled, we
must have grounds for faira. People,
agricultural and stock,raising people,
are imbued with lesson derived from q
costly experience. Before the war, we
ran wild after quantity. We shall, in
future, direct the greatest care to quail
iiy. An attention will be given to stock
that was never before given. Agricul-
tural products, cultivated to the highest
point of excellence, will seek notoriety.
Fair Grounds will be the place, and fairs
the occasion. Moreover, we learn that
it is the intention of many of our lead
ing citizens to improvise frequent exhi-
billions at the grounds. These will
afford delightful episode to the carking
cares of business, and prove, in every
respect, benefit to the city. Let the
gentlemen who control the park, hurry
it on to completion, and let the public,
the real beneficiary, sustain them.

SMALL QUARREL.

The latest quarrel that has arisen from
literary plagiarism is that as TO the au-
thorship of Rock Ne to Sleep" One
gentleman has written book vindicating
the claim Of Mr.. Ball, of New Jersey,
although the poem appears in volume
BY Mrs. Akers. If there is anything
to be commended to poetasters, it is q
little plagiarism. The controversy that
results often brings their illusions into
a celebrity that they would never other
wise have enjoyed, and the claims are
always so confusing that it is impossible
to fix upon any one the stigma Of theft
