LgaZ Day Csle5r,ca. zion.

Since the beginning Of the late
civil war, the holidays have almost
ceased to be observed in our sec
ton of the country. AS an OPP
pressed people, we have no hearts
on 22nds of February, and 4ths
Of July, to vaunt and boast of our
liberties and of the greatness Of
our country. We have never OBJ
served the Easter holidays, and
Christmas has nearly ceased to
exhilarate us. But our little com
munity has determined to celebrate
the return Of Spring, which now
tardily comes to enliyen us after
the extremely severe Winter just
passed. The ceremony Of crown
ing a May Queen, an old English
custom, will take place in the fine
grove at the Taliaferro old place,
beginning at the hour of 4 P. NJ,
on the first day of May. The pub
lie are invited to attend. Our
school teacher, Mrs. Shropshire,
supervises the preparation for the
occasion. The female portion of
her school, together with several
Of the young ladies of our vicinity,
will constitute the Queen and
Court, and we think that we could
safely advise any one to leave his
pillow for one day to get sight of
such a bevy Of damsels.
The experience Of our teacher in
such matters, and her indefatigi-
ble energy in preparing the girls
and young ladies for the occasion,
guarantees success.
After the ceremonies, a big din
ner will be given without cere-
mony, according to Southern
style. ~

which tie strength OF the former,
i'll the Senate can prevent from be-
ing repealed. Laws thus fastened
have the permanency Of constitu-
tional provisions; for in the way
Of defeating efforts to repeal, the
six little States Of New England,
with their less than three and a
half millions Of people, can coun-
teract the force of the six great
States of New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Ken

millions.
The population of the State of
New York is greater than that of
all New England, and yet New
York has two Senators while New
England has twelve. Represen-
ted in the same ratio with Rhode
Islad, New York would have more
than forty Seators, and Ohio near
ly twenty five. Such inequalities
are only to be borne when the par
ty having the advantage refrains
from using it unfairly; but the
fact of an attempt to profit by it
illegitimately is itself enough-if
any ground were necessary-for
instantly breaking off the arrange
ment to which the inequality; is
attached. Cincinnati Enquirer.

WHEREAS, much painful anxiety and appre-
hens1on exists in the public mind, resulting
from the passage Of the EAfiiitary BilP, bv Con-
gress, and the General Order Of General ord
IN assuming command of the sEMilnarv Dis
trict OF Mississippi and Arkansas and
whereas, In some instances, the regular admin
istration of the State Government has been un-
settled to such an extent as to cause some of
the of1ceTs of the State to suspend the functions
Ul . theiF o1ees and many citizens are hes
tauhg, while others refuse, to pay their taxes
upon the assumed ground that the Tax Col
lectofs are not competent officers,1 and there
lore are not authorized TO receipt for the same;
and as other evils and Irregularities may arise
from the uncertainty that exists to the du-
tles and responsibilities of officers and citizens
OF the state IN their present situatiOn-there-
Iore, deem it proper TO make known that the
Act OF Con&sess commonly called the EEAfilitary
BIZ recognizes the civil existing Government
OF tue state. 1t Is true it is declared to be pro-
plslonal only and in all respects subject to
the paramount authority of the United States
at any time to abolish, modify, control or
supercede the same. But until change is
made IN accordance with the provisions of
thls law, hereby give NOTICE to the Civil
ofhcers of the state that their relations and
responsibilities to the Constitution of the Uni
tel States, to the State Of Mississippi and to
the people, remain unchanged, and they will
De held 10 strict accountability for the per-
iormance of their duties, in carrying out the
provisions OF the laws, for the maintenance of
he civil Government, and for the full and am
ie protection of all classes of inhabitants of
the State sooth whit" and black. in all of their
70 fsSs2 .-za-sg' tdc religion
And | further ADVISE and admonish all good
citizens and inhabitants to sustain the civil
officers in maintaining the peace, order and Sc
curity of society-to deal justly and indul-
gently with each other, and in their political
helplessness, to devote themselves to pursuits
of industry, and TO the production of those
necessaries of life for which they are now so
dependent upon the markets of other States,
and to offer no resistance to any steps that may
be taken in the reconstruction of the State by
the Military authority of the United States,
except such may be authorized by the
Courts, under the Constitution Of the United
States. Military power may become intolera-
BILE only when il is placed in the hands of the
vicious and the unjust, which, happily, is NOT
the case in Mississippi. The Military BilI''
makes no provision for the support of the civil
Government Taxes must be collected by the
civil officers TO support it and to pay its debts.
and whenever any changes are made either in
the civil officers or the duties required of them,
timely notice will doubtless be given and du-
ly promulgated. b. q. HUMPHREYS.
