BUTLER AND DAWES.

These gentlemen have had severe
tussle at words in the House of Rep
resentatives, Dir. Dawes charging the
present administration with extrava-
CANT expenditures, and Ben. Butler
defending the administration from the
attack Of bis colleague. There is nc
doubt great deal of truth in Mr..
Dawes charges of extravaganza In con.
Quoting the Government, butit is clear
that Mr.. Butler showed that Mr..
Dawes made some very grave misrepre-
sensations in facts and figures. That
the debt is being gradually reduced is
q fact pa tent to every one who reads
the reports from the Secretary of the
Treasury, but at the same lime the ex-
pense of collecting the revenue and
other OUTLAWS Of the Government, are
largely in excess Of what they should
be. The people justly demand redress
in the matter, and have right to look
to the administration for re lief.

The Nomination.

We have delayed our issue this week
beyond the usual time, in order to an
nounce to our readers the result OF the
Convention assembled in this city yes
terday, iTuesday.)
During the first days proceedings
100 ballots were taken without any
choice, and at p. m. the Convention
adjourned over until this morniog at
am. On the 108th ballot the vote
was as follows Atwood % ; Williams
10; Holmes 8; Caswell 2; Enos l,
resulting in the choice Of David At
wood of Dane, as the person selected
to fill the vacancy in Congress occa-
stoned BY tie death of Hon. B. F.
Hopkins.
Although the contest all through
was sharp, and the delegates of the
several candidates stuck to their choice
through thick and thin, and with q
determination to win, yet at the close
Of the proceedings the best of goot
feeling and harmony prevailed.

FOX AND WISCONSIN RIVER I'M
PROMINENT.

In the Assembly-on Wednesday last,
Mr.. Van S. Bennett, from the Com
mittee on Internal proVements to
which the Senate memorial to Congress
for an appropriation to improve the
navigation of the Fox and Wisconsin
rivers had been referred, made report.
In the opinion of the Committee, the
importance of the Fox and Wisconsin
rivers is feasible, and will result in
cheap transportation, the great increase
of trade, the opening Of a new marke
for the benefit of the whole north west,
advance of manufactures, increase Of
population, augmentation of wealth AID
give aid and comfort to the agricultural
and mechanical interests of the country.
All these things which arethe clements,
andconstitute the greatness of nations
and opulence of states, urge with per-
suasive power that some practical plan
be adopted to forthwith commence
and ultimately complete the Fox and
Wisconsin River Improvement.
1t is fact generally understood and
definitely and established that canal or
slack water navigation affords by far
a cheaper and more reliable means of
transporting heavy freight than our
railroads, and if there were to be no
other advantage gained, the cheapness
for moving freight alone would be suf-
feient to stimulate men to greater
works than this. The cost, as estimated
by practical engineers in the employ of
the general government, is but trifling
compared with the benefits which the
people of the great Northwest will de-
rive therefrom.
The banks Of these streams, now al
most desert wastes, will, in an incredi-
bly, short time, be teeming with wealth
and industry. Populous cities and
thriving villages will spring up at short
intervals, and be supported by the
steady increasing business of prosper
Gus and happy communities.
The constant hum of busy machine
ry will soon be regarded, at home and
abroad, as evidence conclusive that we
have great manufacturing interest
firmly established in our midst, which
will insure profitable employment for
thousands of workmen, good market
for our farm products, aud at the
same time support manufactured arti-
Giles at greatly reduced prices.
These important facts bearing on our
future prosperity as a State, should
have their proper weight with Congress,
and We trust a sufficient appropriation
will be made for the prosecution Of this
important work.

CAPITAL PUNIsHMENT.-The queS-
ton of restoring capital punishment in
this State is again up before our legis-
lature at Madison. A bill has been in
trodueed on this subject fashioned after
the Illinois law, which IS claimed to be
compromise between the two policies
which have been tried in this State.
This bill gives power to the juries to
fix the penalty of death in some cases
of murder, as we'll as determine the
guilt of the party, which is considered
bv some as an undue influence to be
used by Petit Juries.

CERTIFICATE STOLEN. -The mar
rage certificate of Albert ID. Richardson
and Mrs. Abby Sage has mysteriously
disappeared from the office of vital sta
tistics, where it was fled.
1t will be replaced by duplicate to be
obtained from the officiating clergyman.
If the recollection of this disgraceful
affair could be stolen from the minds
of the people it would be a good thing.
We believe that nearly all who were
interested in bringing about the mar
rage of Mr.. Richardson and Mrs. Nc
Farland are heartily ashamed Of them
selves. Even Henry Ward Beecher

he stopped over" in giving counte-
nance to the union.

cheaper than any other window fast. For
house windows it dispenses with weights

PREPARING FOR THE COMING
CRoP.-Having been considerably
among the planters of our parish
within the last few days, we have
made some observations as to the
preparation for another crop. On
the Teche above here we are glad
to observe, that there is much
more cane being planted this year
than last; and the land seems to
be in very good order. The late
frost, it is said, injured stubble
cane somewhat, but the seed cane
is in excellent condition. Most of
the planters are through planting
their cane crop.
Out on the prairies to the north
and west, we werea little surprised
to find that the farmers were
planting hardly any cane, but
when our attention was called to
the fact that they have no wood,
we at once recollectsd that cane
could be made without fuel, but
sugar could not. It is a little
strange to MS that some party
with a sufficient capital does not
erect somewhere on the west side
of Spanish Lake, in the midst of
this rich and lovely country, an
extensive sugar mill for the ac-
commodation of the public. An
investment of this kind, it seems
to us, would produce large for
tune in a few years, even if coal
had to be hauled from the bayou
to the lake and thentfoated to the
desired point, to run the mill for
the first year, as after that time
bagasse might be used as fuel to
drive the entire concern at mere
expense of erecting sheds to keep
the same dry. This would open
up q new and and most profitable
crop to the planters in thissection.
The farmers, as a general thing,
are in quite an advanced state
with their planting, being nearly
through with beth corn and cot
ton. A good deal of new fencing
is to be seen, and fresh land is
being added in many places.
The. prairies are quite green
with grass, and the stock looks
very well for this time of the year.
The peach and plum crops will
be an entire fallere, as also the
first crop of figs. This is in conse.
quence of the late afreeze and
frosts. We are informed that
other fruits, such as oranges, etc.,
are not seriously damaged Neao

The PLACE TO WoRK.-The
Columbus Snn calls attention to
a letter written to the Jackson
Miss Clarion, by one of its edi-
tors, E. Barksdale, who has been
spending the winter in Chicago
as representative of the Missls-
sippi Central Immigration Asso-
citation. Through his efforts and
others associated with him, more
than ten thousand laboring men
have been induced to pull up
stakes and try Mississippi. Chi
cage appears to be the great re-
ceiver of the foreign immigration
to this country--especially the la
boring portion. We learn also
from other letters to this gentle
man that thousands arrive at Chi
cage who, finding employment
hard to get, are easily induced to
try the cotton States of the South.
