tic State fom which be is elected
Cor two years A man may be
made q citizen IN q moment but
ltrequiros more 70 make e man an
iRhabitant. The negroes we're
made citizens by the 1llh Amend.
ment, but actual residence is re.
qdired to make 2 man an inhablt-
ant. Why we're those two terms,
citizen and inhabitant used If they
we're not intended to convey diff
ferent and distinct meanings? An
inhabitant is a permanent resi-.
dent. A soldier can never be
4 permanent resident, because he
is liable to be ordered from point
to point at any moment. Gen.
Ames came into Mississippi in
obedience to orders, and not in
accordance with his own plans or
wishes. Here he held himself
subject to the command of his
superior, and would have left the
State at a moments warning if so
ordered. In this nomadic sort Of
existence, if he had been asked
at any time previous to the pres.
ent, Where is your home z" his
reply would have been, The
State Of Maine" But now it is
simply q question of conscience.
When he is called upon to qualify
he will simply have to swear that
Mississippi is and has been for
the past two years his permanent
home; that he has not been q
simple sojourner here, liable at
any moment to be ordered away,
but that he has resided here as a
bona .fde inhabitant, hdVing no
home elsechere; claiming none
elsewhere, and claiming this as
his home for the past two years.
We will see.

WHO WILL COMMAND THE DE.
PARTMENT!

General Ames, Military Com.
mander Of this Department, hav-
ing been elected TO the United
States Senate, there must, of nc.
cessity, be a sort of interregnum
between his removal and the full
restoration of the State. Some
interest is manifested in endeayor.
ing to learn who will succeed as
Military Commander. The War
Department would certainly no,
60 to the expense and trouble 0
sending al officer here to take
command for this short period if
one was in the State of sufficient
rank 10 assume commend. For
tunately itappears that such an
officer is in this State. The gen.
tleman to whom we refer is Gen.
Pennypacker. In years he is one
of the youngest officers of his
rank in the army, but in point Of
intelligence and worth he is the
equal of all, and the superior of
many in the service. His gentle
manly and honorable conduct has
endeared him to the citizens of this
STATE, as it was once thought no
Federal officer could ever be. He
is not wrapped sp in political as.
pirations, pledges, and promises,
but is free and untrammeled. His
action will, in every instance, be
based upon truth and honesty
He is a party to no political COM
bination. A soldier by education
he spurns any act which cannot
be measured by the high standard
of. the old military school. To
this gentleman, in all probability,
will be transferred the temporary
command of the State, and none
will succeed to it more fully en-
dorsed and supported by the good
and true people Of the State than
he will be.

troubles the extreme Radicals.

of Alcorn, the Governor elect who
has made an issue with General
Ames, and refused to be sworn in
Provisional Governor, claiming
that he has been elected Gov

ecutive chair by virtue of that
election. The unexpected action
on the part of Governor Alcorn,
says the Washington correspond.

ISRAEL D. COLE.

Israel D. Cole was born in Beverly,
Mass, September 4th, 1881, where he
spent his early days and received his edu-
cation but at the very outset Of his bust
ness career, in the year 1858, he estab-
1i-hca Li,--eelf ~ Rutland. IS the senior
member of the well known firm Of Cole
& Foster, afterwards Cole s. Kingsley.
From the first, he acted the part of an
honest and honorable man, and through
the sixteen years that he continued in the
firm he never, by word, act or policy sacri-
feed his good name, but constantly grew
in favor with all the people, reapiug the
just rewards of well doiug-a full share
of public patronage.
In the year 1858, during revival OF
religion, then prevailing in the commune
ty, he and his beloved and highly accom-
plished wife were both converted and
joined the 4piist church of this village,
of which he remained faithful and con
sistent member, diligent worker, and
warm friend of every good cause.
For several years previous to his lesv.
ing our community be was honored as the
clerk of the society and superintendent
of the Sabbath School; and although of a
retiring and chidlike disposition, he dis
charged all the duties imposed upon him
with credit to himself and the entire sat
isfaction of those whom he served evi.
IDENTIFY doing all from the highest of mo-
tives love of Christ.
His last illness was long and painful in
the extreme; but having lived Chris
tian's life, he died happy and hopeful
death, on the Goth day of September
1870.
The memory of the just is blessed"
RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.
At the last regular meeting of the Y
NJ. G. A. of Rutland, the following pre-.
smbles and resolutions of respect were
unanimously adopted
WHEREAS Almighty God, in His all-wise prov
idence, has removed by death our beloved brother
and tellow-laborer, 1. D. Cole, taking him from
toll on earth to rest in heaven; aud
WHEREAS, He was one of the organizers and
cons fluent members of the Y. NJ C. A of Rut
land, and ever labored zealously to promote its
work, it is emineutly fitting that we should give
some expression to our feelings in the loss of Sc
consistent Christian, faithful friend and fellow
soldier, therefore
Res0Iged, That while we mourn our loss in hi
death, it is our duty to thank the Great Giver o
mercies for risen Saviour, through whom ou1
brother was enabled to triumph in death, aDt
through whom, if faithful, we may gain eterna
life.
Res0yUed, That we extend to his widow ant
children, and to the church of which he was
member, our sincere sym pathy.
Re80zued, That these resolutions be published
and copy sent to the family of the deceased
brother. E. W. HoRNER, President.
