One of the purest and most useful citi-
zens of Mississippi, has written the sub
joined letter to the Walden Times declin-
ing to permit the use of his name for Of
fee in the pending election. His reasons
are clearly stated; and are worthy of
adoption by other members of the Con-
sentative party whose names have been
brought before the public in similar
connection:
Editor Walden Times, Dear Sfr:-Tour
kind Partially in placing my name before
the public for the second highest Office In
the gin Of the people Of Mississippi, is en-
titled to my cordial thanks. / know you
and all others desiring me TO occupy such
position, believe the duties consequent would
be discharged with the strietest fidelity, as
far as my qualifications would allow. But
you must excuse me for asking you to with
draw my name, as am one of those who
have put forth have recently an address to
the people advising an active support of the
Conservative Republican ticket In the sue
cess of which is our only hope to be restored
to our rights and amicable relations with
the Federal Government We have been
accursed too long in the deprivation of free
man rights, with the imposition of un-
bridled wrong, to throw obstacles in the
way OF proper corTectiVes; IheFeioLe we
hope no one in our party unacceptio1a-
BILE to the-administration will run for the
Office of Governor or Lieut.. Governor. In
conclusion, let me say, there are no duties
/ would shrink from whereby the great in
terests of the State would be promoted, nor
any means, or sacrifices at my command
should be withheld to remove the oppression
and disgrace our people is subjected TO, but
let US do as the good people of Virginia and
Tennessee have done in their recent elections,
and all will be well.

UNION FEMALE COLLEGE. This In

steadily advances in public favor, and its
next session, which opens September 18th,
promises larger attendance of pupils than
ever before. The accomplished President,
Rev. G. FL. Bell, has striven hard for excel
lence, and in Union Female College, has
fully attained it. Oxford is noted for its
health, and its Intelligent and refined socie-
ty. Young ladies attending school there
enjoy all those advantages of place where
education is made chief concern. Pupils
at Union Female College will find in Mr..
and Mrs. Bell friends who will take in them
a parental interest,-who will study their
comfort happiness and intellectual advance
ment. The Faculty of the College affords
the best order of talent in each department.
The terms are exceedingly moderate-as
low, certainly, as those of any School in the
South of equal grade.

that it has been IAN uphill work to induce
General Grant to authorize the announce
ment that he yet sticks to the so-called ssRe-
publican organization" and that is all he
has done. The especial object of the ex-
traordinary mississippi Commission, back
ed by the whole power of the extremists,
has been frustrated. Every one knows that
Tarbell and his fellow-savages were solely
bent upon the offices in Mississippi, and de-
sired an explicit condemnation of Judge
Dent personally. In these purposes they
utterly failed.

WASHINGTON, August 20-Ex-Senator
Albert G.. Brownoi Mississippi, has written
letter TO Judge Dent, the Conservative
candidate for Governor of that State. de-
claring that it has never been expected that
Dent would enter the canvass Otherwise
than as a Republican. The people of the
State regret that the election has been put
off until such late date, on account of the
interests. The main idea of asking Dent to
President of their sincerity to support his
policy and they would not have offered the
leadership to the Presidents brother-in-law,
ject in offering Dent the leadership was
that they believed him to be in full sympa-
thy with the President personally and po-
litically. They intend to put ticket in the
field in September. composed of the Presi-
dents friends, whom they intend to elect if
he will let them. All they ask. is that the
President will carry out his promise and see
that fair election is held. They denounce
the administration of Ames' as tyranical he
having turned Dents friends out of office,
although they were good Republicans. They
declare that the President, by upholding
Ames, will drive from his support nineteen
twentieths of the white men, and sooner or
later a large portion of the negroes. Gov.
Brown declares that large majority of the
white men of the State, desire to be friend
ly to the President; but it depends upon
him whether they shall be or not. He adj
vises Dent to visit the State by the first of
October, make his first speech at jackson,
and then attend mass meetings.
