Milliken, the young gentleman who
frightened the Ioyal Baum at LaGrange on
election day, and who was arrested by the
military, and brought before Judge Trigg
on a writ of ha5eas corpus, was discharged
from custody on the 10Th inst. Delivering
his opinion, Judge Trigg said
There are two branches to a parole the
first, not to take up arms against the United
States; the second the paroled prisoner is
permitted to return to his home and be will
not be disturbed by the United States, so
long as he obeys the laws Of the State The
first Is military obligation. The civil au-
thorities have a right to punish for violations
Of the second. The second branch Of the
parole merely affords protection to the citi-
zen from arrest and imprisonment by the
United States so longas he obeys the parole.
For violation of the military obligation in
times of peace, the United States Courts are
open. Military commissions are repugEant
to our sense of justice, and the theory of
eur Government when civil courts are open.
The oaense disclosed in this return was a
violation of the laws Of the State. not OF
the United States, and was not an armed
violation of a parole. The prisoner viii be
discharged, as he is Illegally detained in
custody by the military authorities.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN 2-Last Monday Mr..
Jordan, member of the lower house of the
Tennessee Legislature, introduced &" a Bill
to amend the election laws Of the State, con
ferring upon the Commissioners of Regis
tration the power to appoint Judges and
Clerks Of election, which bill was referred
to the Judiciary Committee.
What is the matter now Mr.. Jordan? 1t
is a well-known fact that the " Commission
rs'of Registration" backed by the whole
radical party, have been exercising the right
to appoint Judges and Clerks of election for
months past. Were they wrong? Mr.
Brownlow said that they were right

The Reason During the past eight or
ten days the question has often been asked
by disappointed persons, why is that cot
ton has fallen so low in price p In few
words as possible, we viii attempt to give a
correct answer: Before the war this coun-
try supplied European manufacturers with
cotton then their machinery was so con-
structed that they manufactured but little
short staple cotton during the war, when
the supply Of American cotton was almost
entirely Get Of, the foreign manufacturers
changed their machinery so as to aecommo-
date the short staple cotton raised IN the
East Indies, Egypt and Brazil For six or
seven years the countries named above have
been improving the. growth OF cotton, and
now should every particle Of American cot
ton be cut off from Europe, manufacturers
there could easily get along with the short,
but now greatly improved Indian, Egyptian
or Brazilian cotton. In fact, European
manufacturers are, to great extent, indie
pendent Of the American staple, and viii
only buy it when they can strike trade at
their own figures 1t is fact beyond dis
luto that the three producing countries
named abuve can raise cotton at less cost
than the American planter, and as d matter
Of course, they rule the market The sooner
cotton is dropped in this country the better
There is no use in trying to compete, under
present circumstances, with the cheap labor
system OF the Indies, Egypt and Brazil The
above facts, though clumsily thrown to-
gether, are worth millions to our people if
they viii only heed them. Many a man III
this county to-day bitterly repents Of having
planted so much cotton and so little corn :
Experience is dear school, but it is one in
which the most stubborn can be made to
learn

YELLOW FEvER.-Ait last it is certain that
Memphis is afflicted with this terrible
disease, though up to last Thursday only six
or seven deaths had occurred per day
Thirty-seven new cases were reported for
the twenty four hours ending at noon Thurs
day. Nurses are on the way from New
Orleans and Nashville, Owing to the fact
that the season has advanced so far it is
thought that the disease will not prove as
bad as it has elsewhere. We hope to ehron-
icle the disappearance Of the fever in our
next issue.

On the bosom of river
Where the sun Embossed his CULVER,
Or the starlight streamed forever,
Sailed vessel light and free.
Morning dew-drops hung like mamma
On the bright folds of her banner
While the zephyr rose to fan her
Softly to the radiant sea.
At her prov pilot beamng
In the flush of youth stood dreaming,
And he was in glorious seeming,
Like an angel from above.
Through his hair the breezes sporteu'
And as on the wave he hoated
Oft that pilot angel-throated,
Warbled lays of hope and love-
Through these locks so brightly flowing
Ruds of laurel blooms were blowing,
And his hands anon were throwing
Music from a Tyre of gold.
Swiftly down the stream he glided
Soft the purple waves divided,
And a rainbow arch abided
On his canvas snowy fold.
Anxious hearts, with fond devotion
Watched him sailing to the ocean,
Praying that no wild commotion
Midst the elements might rise.
And he seemed some young Apollo
Charming summer winds to follow,
While the water flags carolla
Trembled to his music signs.
But those purple waves enchanted
Rolled beside city haunted
by an awful spell that daunted
Every conner to her shore
Magistrates rank the air encountered,
And pale marble statues numbered
Where the lotus-eaters slumbered
And awoke to life no more.
Then there rushed with lightning quickness
Der his face a mortal sickness,
And the dews in fearful thickness
Gathered DER his temples fair,
And there swept dying murmur
Through the lovely Southern summer
As the beauteous pilot conner
Perished by that city there.
Sill rolls on that radiant river,
And the sun unbinds his culver
Or the starlight streams forever
On its bosom as before
But that vessels rainbow banner
Greets no more the gay savanna,
And that pilots lutte drops mamma
On the purple waves no more
