The editor of the Vicksburg
Times, whose life is bent to loyal
duty, devotes nearly q column to
the Lauderdale affair, the Gazette
and our duty in directing the peO-
pie as to the course they should
pursue In checking crime-partic-
ularly in cases where q white man
kills q negro. This is the burden of
our neighbours song, and he wakes
eloquent over 1t. He wants no
''idle diatribcs," but with q little
small discerning, and q hatful Of
what Davenant calls the minds

"proper terms and plain English"
He attacks us vigOrously---the left
hand rushing irantically through
his hair and the right scattering ink
drops of sense and leaning, roth
and wind, at the "stua" which APP
peared in the Gazette. And he does
all this, too, without giving his read
ers au opportunity to pass judge

Our nelghbor looks at il with blear-
ed beams, garbles q sentence or word

never attempted to gloss over the
LauderdRle killing we have pro-
nounced against such lawless OUT
RACES all along, aud in our first no.
tice the Lauderdale killing was
styled an "assassination"-a term
probably strong enough for the
stomach of the Times. We want to

men; TO protect industry and quiet

lence. We do not wish to abridge
the black mans life or liberty, nor

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. Ds.

Tt should be gratifying, and
must be so to every thoughtful
mind, to note the activity Of the
railroad interest Of this State.
We may lay aside other consid-
eratiOns, those Of private, indiyid-
ual. l.OF local gain, and look only to
the good to result to the people at
large, as we'll as TO particular Sec
tions. These railroad enterprises
may prove losing affairs to some OF
those who engage in them, although
we doubt 1t, but the majority OF
these routes must eventually prove
richly paying Investments and the
rebuilding of our State.
Several Of these railroads are
leading from Vicksburg, and have,
as objective points, New Orleans,
Grenada and Memphis, and in adj
dition, the Shreveport and the
Little Rock routes. We also hear
Of several other routes, or exten.
sion of routes. Among these are
the ElytOn and Aberdeen, Jackson
aud NatChez, the Meridian and
New Orleans, the Ship Island and
the Grenada and Houston. 1t may
be that in some of these cases aud
for private reaCons of self-interest
and profit, ''airy nothings" are re.
ceiving "local habitatiOns and q
name !" but generally these routes,
at least all those mentioned are
bona fde ones and are destined tC
enure to the propriety Of their
projectors and the welfare of the
state.
These roads viii open the inte'
rior 10 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS will
flock in aud 1t WILDE but a sh 0rt
time, should our gOvernmeE prove
to be one Of justice and fostering
care, before traffic and travel over
the new routes prove remunerative
These roads, also, are projected
through the richest counties
of our State, and no sooner
has the way been opened
than settlers will eagerly seel
the lands bordering upon this patl
Of the iron horse, aud if our peopl,
are wise aud far seeing they will
afford these immigrants opportuni
ties of purchasing small farms an(
making themselves homes, there
By increasing the value Of theiI
own remaining property, adding
to the wealth and population ofth'
State, and giving source of reve
nue. to the railroS ds.
We call the attention Of capital
lists to the significance ofthis move
ment. Especially do we point thei
attention to this city which, as tn
great commercial centre Of tn
State and of the cotton belt, a
we'll as being the radii of severa
important railroad routes, is enti
tied to pre-eminent claims as
place for the productive invest
ment OfCapital.

sEThe HOly GraiI.o

Many, doubtless, have been not a little
perplexed at the meaning of these strange
ly sounding words, the theme of the new
poem with which the Laureate of England
is now delighting the lovers of poetry. We
find in one of our English exchanges this
solution:
The Holy Grail was a CUP made of 9 sim
ole precious stone, from which the Saviour
of mankind was said to have drank at the
Last Supper, which was afterWard filed
with blood flowing from his wounds on the
cross. which was said to have been brought
into this country by Joseph of Arimathea.
According to the old legend, this mythical
vessel m~iracuously disappeared one day
from the custody of Its keeper; and thence
forth it was the highest ambition of all
worthy knights to go in search of it, and If
possible to effect its recovery. 1.-THE Quest
of the Holy Grail" forms an important and
very beautiful part of the old romance of
liking Arthur" compiled, in the reign OF
Henry VII, by Sir Thomas Malory-a work
from which Mr.. Tennyson has derived sew
eral of the materials of his Arthurisn po-
ems. The adventure was at length achiev-
ed by Sir Galahad, the virgin knight in act
and thought, of whom Mr.. Tennyson,
years ago, wrote a charming ballad poem.
In the longer and more ambitious preduc-
ton now given to the world, the adventures
of several of Arthur's knights In their
search after the wondrous cup, are related
by Sir Percival, now become q hermit, to
his fellow-recluse, Ambrosius. The nara
tive, however, is preceded by a shorter
poem, called ''The Coming of Arthur" IN
which the miraculous origin of the great
warrior-king is described.

NEW GLAZING PUTTE.-A new glazing
putty, known as thermo-plaStc putty, has
been recently introduced into England, and
applied to fasten glass into the roofs ofrail-
way stations, greenhouses, and other struc-
lures where iron sashesa are employed. This
article hardens in q few hours after being
used; but when exposed to solar heat suf-
hcieEt TO cause an expansion of the glass
and metal, becomes plastic, and on cooling
again hardens to its original 6rmness, thus
obviating the danger of breakage, which is
so frequent when ordinary glaciers putty
is employed.

The American stomach is a tormenting or
gan. tits generally out Of order. The rea-
son is obvious. The driving man OF business
has not time, or will not take time properly
to masticate his food. He bolts it, and as
bad habits are catching, ali classes follow his
example. Hence Dyspepsia, with all it's
compilcations-hence Indigestion, Liver
Complaint and disorders Of the bowels in all
their various phases. Against these and a
hundred other complaints, the Scandinavian
Blood Pills and Blood Purifier are wagmg
an DISCRIMINATING warfare. The success of
these medicines has been astonishing, even
in an age of scientific miracles. They do not
aleuidte . they ~ertinguish a disorder. The
agony, the fever, the debility, the despon-
dency, which characterize Affections of the
digestive and secretive organs, vanish under
the influence of these preparations. The
constitution itself seems to acquire new en-
ergy under their operation.
