store of our friend Mr.. Arnold Weber, mer-
chant tailor, No. l42 Gravier street, and
sa w piled upon his counters the uniforms OF
this gallant body of citizen soldiers, which
will be completed and ready for delivery In
day or two. The coats are Of a dark blue
tweed cloth. with light blue facings, while
the pants are gray. with blue stripes. They
are exceedingly becoming, and made up IN
a style to reflect credit upon Mr.. Weber as
manufacturer of clothing. When it Is con-
sidered that there were over thousand OF
thes suits to be made, and that the order
for them was not given over two weeks ago,
We credit Mr.. Weber with unusual prompt
tude. and as to the workmanship, we ven
ture to say that it could not be surpassed in
any city i'll the Union. Mr.. Weber has one
of the largest stocks OF cloths i'll the South,
and is ready to fill orders with equal
promptitude, either for citizens or soldiers,
guaranteeing fit and the latest fashions

Several of the milk and-water journals OF
this State have recently become terribly dis
gusted with what they are pleased to term
.the Brick Pomeroy style of some of their
neighbors. They seem to think it wrong to
cali a fellow thief who robs the govern
ment. He ought to be called defaulter.
They are afrlkd of hurting the Governors
feelings by stating that one of his APP
pointees stole the peoples money: We be-
Iieve in calling things by their proper
names, and expect to continue to do SO as
long as thieves remain in high place
Brandon Republican.
All right, but if the Petty peculations
with which you charge Republican officials
deserve such torrent Of foul abuse as you
bestow, where in the blackguards vocabu-
larry shall we find language vile enough to
characterize the Democratic thieves who
stole $780, 900 of the State University fund
and all the other funds granted by the
na0bnal government to the State of Mis-
sisyippi. amounting to many millions OF
dollars! We think it would beat even
Frantz to find it.-Ca1lton Citizen.
