The slanderer AGAIN nj Ills DlrtI
Work,

II IL with reluctance that VIC find
ourselves compelled 10 notice the
author Of a letter 10 the vicksburg
RepuJhcdn. and the misrepreaenia-
tons contained in that letter. We
had thought that if there was q per-
son in existence who had cause to
lie grateful 10 a community, that
individual was Y. Oranne; but il
seems he is not, and that, viper-like,
he seeks to destroy those whom
he should be grateful to. In the
letter alluded to, be says, regarding
the killing Of two turbulent charac-
acters, that "a gang Of armed men
supposed to represent the Kuklux or
gaairation, visited the plantation Of
Jack Mckee, twenty miles from Pa
nola, and called at a cabin occupied
by Prince and Demp Fizer (colored)
and their families. To accomplish
their hellish design with more speed,
the Kuklux demanded admittance,
but this being refused, they set the
cabin on FIRE, and so compelled the
occupants to come out" From what
we can learn Of the affair, the party
called KnklnS were fired upon from
i~oop-holes in he cabin before anything
whatever Of a belligerent nature oc-
CURED, and their destruction can be
attributed solely to aggressive action
on their part. Whether the deed
was ptrpetrated by any organized
band or not, does not appear, and
Mr.. Cannes whole statement that Il
was committed by a band belonging
to the mythical Kuklux, is a mere
supposition, which would not have
been used by any one kayisg the
slightest regard for truth &c vsrseiiy.
We are as heartily opposed to the
spirit Of mob violence a. any one,
and hope the perpetrators Of ,hi.
crime may be brought to justice and
the law take It's course, and We know
that the civil officers have done all
they could in the premises.
The object Of the letter is plainly
visible In the following extract:
"Whether or not the military will
take notice Of this sad affair, time
only will show; il would be useless
10 expect the civil authorities to do
Il. To my knowledge, no inquest
has been held. Such a state Of
sffairs will oon,inne just as long as

made to be felt. If the General
commanding the District would only
hold all owners Of plantations where
such grimes are committed response
bic for them, he might put an end to
them, as Il is hard to believe that
the employer can not afford some
protection to his employees while
they work his land" ata
The s.a,emen. tina. no inquest ha.
been held is entirely false, as an in.

affair came to the knowledge Of the

The LAW OF KISDNEss.-The
man who loves his family, his home,
whose little ones smile and run to
meet him as he nears his dwelling,
cannot be indifferent to the condition
they might occupy in this cold and
selfish world were he to be removed.
No words or acts of tenderness can
then be spoken, and the little ones
whose every want was cheerfully
supplied are Obliged to look to others
for support, 1t is conceded that a
loving and indulgent husband studies
the comfort Of his family, and avails
himself Of all the advantages that
are presented for the continuance Of
these comforts. What q consolation
il is to a parent who loves his wife
and children to know there is a So
ciety formed by good men Of like in
~terests which invites us 10 east all he
future well-being of our families into
their care. The SAINT LOUIS MU-
TuAL Life Insurance Company is
such an institution, and has its net
work of agents spread over the
whole land. In Memphis, its agents
are Messrs. Mcmahon & Otis, in the
Kit Williams block, Madison street.
They have an abundance of means,
and know how to administer il ia
the best possible advantage for the
benefit of our families. A small
amount annually appropriated affords
a positive remedy against such a con.
tingency, that must sooner or later
arise. A large portion of the lossc,
paid by life insurance companies ART
paid to families that had nothing
else left TO them for their support. >

The Tulare, California Times thus
pitches into a Radical editor of that
State; who made a comparison be-
tween Grant and Lee, in which he
stated that Grant whipped Lee on
every battlefield. Here is the Times
reply; a,,
In the first place the statement
that Grant whipped Lee on every
battlefield is q point blank lie, and
this man, or any other man, with the
brains Of an oyster, knows il, and
the least bit of attention TO history
would correct all such statements
and they have no other effect than to
render the ass that makes them more
ridiculous. There are but few per-
sons who have not some history OF
the war, and can, each for himself,
correct this miserable falsehood.p

TO God in the Highest" Then Hope,
looking up at David, said, with
strange thoughtfulness Go and sit
down, please, both of you, while I
sing alone

Sometimes, even now, i hear the clear
notes ringing 10 my heart, with their
beautiful, triumphant words / did
not look up until she had finished,
then | saw that David had covered
his face. Mr.. st. George left the
room after that; but Hope. hardly
seeming to think of US, turned the
pages of the book before her and
sang softly, He shall feed His flock
like a shepherd" then she came
quietly from the piano.
" David - she said, stopping beside
him, with a gentle touch upon the
hand that hid his face, does my
singing make you sad?"
Yes, sad-without hope" His
low words were strangely distinct in
the quietness.
Can sing anything that will give
you hope?'
To him, as we'll as to me, the ques-
ton sounded strange, ending so with
her name. She had not thought of
it till she saw the flush on his face
when he looked up. He answered
with trembling lips, "You can do it,
Hope, with a few words and no
music"
And she said, with little smile,
Then it is easily given, David"
He was looking at her in such won
der and bewilderment that she moved
away toward me.
Effie, let us go to bed this Christ
mas Day is gone forever. As papa
would say, it is tomorrow morning
already"
1t was only few days after that
David came in from Upton, and meet
ing me alone, drew me to him, with a
dancing light in his eyes. Efie,
little mother, kiss me in my happi-
ness"

made this look like the happy old
home where we grew up together, aud
we are together now.
We talk for hours Of the old times,
but never speak of the night when we
read David's ST cret, and never of that
letter that he wrote to Hope. There
was the gladstone music of childish
voices in their home before they
heard who had been Erle's one close
friend and lived with him as brother.
We found him here, true and faith
full companion of Erie. We watched
him, after years went by, stealing
Winnie's heart; we watched him
stealing into hers; and we gave her to
him without fear or doubt of their
happiness, and we looked into each
others eyes, and felt there need be no
fear of further parting till the last
one came. So we are together, here
in our fair Australian home-the old
number. We have cheering, loving
news of our dear ones across the sea,
and my life is full of happiness; yet |
often sadly feel how powerless | am
to reach the depth and earnestness of
Erle's.
