had assembled at Damon's metrop ,litan

his acts are also illegal, and unless
he is re-appointed BY Governor
Alcorn, when the Governor Is em-
powered to make such appoint
ments, by virtue Of the bill now
pending, all his subsequent acts
will also be illegal. Why then, in
this plain view Of the case, does
not Governor Alcorn revoke this
appointment and wait until he is
authorized to make appointments
Of city officers, and then, if he de-
sires to, appoint General Weber
as Mayor of this city. But it
should be the duty of Governor

We have read the Governors.
Proclamation declaring the 2ist
day Of April a day Of thanks
giving and "obIating 60 the.
Lord" We think that there
were at least two typOgraphi-
cal errors in the Proclama-
ton. d. In the FIRST place we do not
think the Governor intended to
write the 2lst Of April. The ig-
ure 2 we think crept in by aeci-
dent. 1t should be the LIST Of
April, "All Fools day, for he
certainly must think the people Of
Mississippi are all fools if they
can see anything in the political
condition Of the State for which
to be thankful. We are free to
admit that we can see nothing for
which to be especially thankful.
The other serious typographical
error 10 which we wish to call at.
tention is in the use of the word
"oJIating to the Lord" Like al
great men we imagine the Gov.
ernor writes q very illegible hand
and the printer setting the type
unable to read the writing made

erner Alcorn intended should 81
"Jleating to the Lord" Tn,
Governor evidently intended thii
Proclamation as a piece Of satir

constrained to say that he has pei
