Effect of Forests on Rainfall.

many believe the amount Of rain Is eifec ted

teachers against the roundabout way of praying
and teaching; it reminded him of the Vermont
boy who crooked his gun-barrel to shoot around

cold, or dew. Punctuality was wanted, and
persistent effort, renewed week by week, for the
accomplishment of the great purpose Put on
the harness, and do not fail to improve every

years ago, he found a little girl crying AZ hignV'

He is an enemy of mankind who en-
cages in the work of dividing a commu-
nifty into classes and of encouraging one
of the divisions thus created to make war
on the others. That Alcorn is guilty of
this crime against humanity, is attested
by an address which he has issued dated
Nov. 10th, inst. Assuming what is not
true that there once existed prejudice
between the former slave-owners and those
whom he calls working whites" he tells
the latter that ''19, 500 slave-owners
shaped the legislation of Mississippi to
''tteir o'cn purposes By dominating rotinq
population of 10000 ,chites. Profess
ing to write history, he says that the
slave-owner ''was no friend of public ed
''ucation !" and he declares that the
small farmer who had been dragooned
formerly by an insoIent oligurchy will re-
''fuse to vote any more in the interest of
''the few
Alcorn himself belonged to the class
whom he denounces as the ''insolent
oligarchy'' who tyranised over the work
ing whites, and were not friendly to their
education, and we are not prepared to
state the motives that influenced his own
course as a public man; but we appeal
from his random raving as the leading
champion of ultra RadicaIism, to the past
history of the State which triumphantly
vindicates it from his calumnious imputa-
ton. IF an ''insolent oligarchy" ruled
and rode rough-shod over the liberties oi

not make the discovery when the abuse

This was grand day for ''old Calhoun"
Col III. l.. Duncan, Of Water Valley, Conser-
vative candidate for the Senate in the 2Ist
Senatorial District composed of the coun-
ties of Yalobusha and Calhoun, and Capt.
A. I. Roane, Conservative candidate for the
Legislature in this county, spoke here to-
day.
Col. Duncan spoke more than an hour i'm
one of his hapPiest strains. Radicalism
writhed beneath his ponderuus blows and
the few puny followers of that spawn of
corruption, j. L. AIcorn, were scattered like
ehaff before the wind. Duncan is the right
man in the right place. He and RoaEe have
made thorough canvass in this county,
and the "free State of Calhoun is in
blaze. Capt. Roane followed in speech
full of logic, eloquence and fire. Well may
Calhoun be proud of the stalxorth orator,
A. I. Roane. With such men as Duncan
and Roane as our standard bearers, Radi-
calism has not the ghost of chance. CAL
houn will roll up majority of at least 500
