The people and the press of the State
seem to be considerably put out by the
Governor not issuing his proclamation, or
dering an election for members of Congress,
on the sth of November: BY reference TO
Section Is. Article MI OF The New Constr
tuition. it will be seen that an election is i'm
possible, and that the present Delegation
holds over for 1.-The next full term"
Here is the Section which settles the mat
ter;
See. %. Representatives in Congress TO
fill the existing vacancies shall be elected at
the same time this Constitution Is submit
ted to the electors of the State for ratilica-
ton, and for the full term next succeeding
their election, and thereafter, elections for
Representatives in Congress, shall be held
on the first Tuesday after the first Monday
in November preceding the expiration OF
said full term"
This section to effectually block the game.
Examiner.
The Examiner ought to look a little
further into the subject. There is anoth-
er Constitution beside the one framed by
the bIack-and-tan Convention. 1t is the
Constitution of the United States which
happens to be the supreme law of the
land. That instrument requires the
election of members to each Congress,
fresh from the people. 1t is mandatory.
There is no alternative but to elect
The second section of Art LIST is in these
words "The House of Representatives
shall be composed of members chosen
erery second year By the people of the ser
erql States.
The Pilot says that Congress would
doubtless disregard Ames' double-certifi-
Gates Of the election of the present in
cumbents. Besides, 1T ought to be re-
membered that Gov. Alcorn took an oath
to support the Constitution of the United
States

Some of our contemporaries persist in
naming Ex-Governor Charles Clark, as a
member of the Board of Trustees Of the
University. Again we would inform
them he was rejected by the Senate in
consequence of his politics, and that he
was not in attendance at the meeting of
the Board, and did not partake of the
serenade ovation to Alcorn, Tarbell d Co.,
when they visited Oxford to inaugurate
the new management of the University.
Our misguided cOtemporaries have blend
ed the honored name of CHARLES CLARK
with that of c. ". Clarke, carpet-bag-
ger, who was defeated as the Republican
candidate for Superintendent of Public
Instruction in 186S-who opposed the es-
Enlistment of separate schools for the
two races in the black-and-tan convention
of 1868-and who is a member of the
Board of Trustees of the University.

CONGRESS -1sT DIsTRICT-In the
event the right Of the people of the State
to elect their Representatives in the AID
Congress is not withheld from them by
the present Radical usurpers, the Oxford
Falcon proposes candidate for the LIST
District whom the people will bear with
their ballots into Congress with whoop
and hurrah-Col. George B. Myers, of
Marshall county. 1t says:
After a careful survey of the District, and
weighing the availabilities of the supposed
candidates, we propose the name of one gem
tleman, whom we think is the right man for
the place. A man whose disabilities have
been removed by Congress, whose character
is unexceptiOnal, whose popularity is Sec
Ond to none in this District, whose record as
a soldier during the late war is as bright
and unsullied as any of the many heroes
who drew their blades or shed their blood
in defence of the Southern cause, and whose
sagacity and patriotism arc unsurpassed
That name is Col. Geo. Il. Myers, of Mar
shall.

The ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the Radical
party in Missouri seems to be spreading to
the Congressional Conventions. Grants
decree of outlawry against all Republi-
cans who have refused to support the reg
ular nominee of his party, and are advo-
eating liberal principles, will drive the
best material Of the party into the Con-
sentative ranks.

Trustee ON the Ram
page.

The Holly Springs Reporter states that
Judge Tarbell delivered a speech to the
negroes at Holly Springs on the occasion
of the dedication of Shaw University, in
which the blacks were assured that they
were competent to bear the burthens and
responsibility of the State government
con their shoulders" This brother
Jonathan of the darkies has cultivated
his good opinion of them amazingly
since his appointment to Office by Alcorn.
He is Trustee of the State University,
and the progress of his ideas warrants the
belief that he would not object to admit
ting into the Institution the sprightly col
ored boy in whose behalf our correspOn-
dent William has made application.
Tarbell, it will be remembered, shared
with Alcorn the honors of the serenade
which was gotten up by the black-and-
tans at Oxford on the occasion of the in
auguration of the Mongrel Board.

THE COTTON MARKET.-A New Or
leans firm writing to the editor under
date of October 1st says 1.-The price of
cotton is low, but it may be still lower
''if the war continues, and we see but
little prospect of its closing soon. The
Liverpool and New York markets con-
'stinue to decline"

TarbelPs idea expressed in his Univer-
sity speech at Holly Springs that the col
ored folks are now able to carry on their
shoulders the responsibilities of the State
government, was borrowed from the cen
sus-takers who shows, happily, that their
own responsibilities are falling off

4 contemporary who argues that Al
corn ought to be commended for doing
nothing worse for the State University
than excluding from the Board of Trus-
tees some of the best men in the State and
placing its management entirely in the
hands of Radical Board, suggests that
it "can be keptin the hands of the white
''people by crowding its rooms with
'chivalrous white Southern youths. -
We doubt the efficacy Of this mode of
solving the problem whether the institu-
ton is to be mongrelized. In matter
of wind and bottom Salnbo is not slow.
Besides, we question if the "chivalrous
''white Southern youths" will consent to
a scramble of that kind.

The St. Louis Democrat, the pioneer
free-son Republican paper in the West,
calls the regular Republican organiza-
ton in Missouri which Grant supports,
''the party of robbery and lying" These
terms are applicable to the same party
everywhere, but we have been too polite
to use them.

If the suggestion of a certain cotempo-

they will have to take an early start in

The special Tax of $500. 900,

The proposed special annual tax of
800, 900 with interest for the next five
years, in another addition to the State
and county taxes, is fragrant outrage.
Under the former revenue system the
collections were ample to meet all the
expenses of the State government. They
are now to be enormously increased and
therefore no apology can be made for the
imposition of the $500, 900 on the ground
that it is required to defray the ordinary
expenses of the State government. The
revenue law VIII yield an ample supply
to pay the per diems and salaries of even
the vast horde of cormorants who are fed
at the public crib under the mongrel gov
eminent. The sum of $500, 900 to be
drawn from the pockets of the people,
will be so much clear gain to the treasury
leeches above their ordinary compensa-
ton and perquisites. 1t is a shameless
fraud on the taxpayers. Besides the pre-
tended law is in violation of the Constitu-
tuition and the bonds issued In pursuance
of it by the irresponsible agents of Ames'
choice will constitute neither legal nor
moral obligation on the people. If stock
jobbers are inclined to incur the hazard
of an investment in such securities for the
sake of gain let them be warned in time.

FIFTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT
The Democrats and Conservatives of the
Fifth District are preparing for the con-
tingency of Congressional election.
Several papers of the District have adopt
ed the suggestion of the Natchez Demo-
crat that Hon. j. F. Sessions, of Frank
lin county, would be a suitable candi-
date. He is at present a useful member
of the Mississippi Legislature, one of
that tried band of Conservatives who. at
the late session contested every inch of
ground with the plunderers who were put
into Office by the military usurper. His
withdrawal from that field of service
would constitute the only objection which
could possibly be urged to the arrange
ment. He is true Mississippian, born
on her soil and carries an empty sleeve
in token of his devotion to his State
They could select no worthier son to rep
resent her in the National Councils.

The Raymond Gazette is doing the
taxpayers of the county great service.
1t is after the bridge REGULATORS with a
sharp stick. 1t calls attention to the as
founding fact that last year the bridge
tax was 800 per cent. on the State tax
and that Notwithstanding this extraordi-
nary levy which the impoverished tax
PAYERS bore with christian fortitude, the
bridge debt of the county, has not been
reduced What has gone with the
money, and why these extrayagant
schemes are put on foot regardless of the
inability of the people to fool them, are
questions which the editor of the Gazette
and his wide-awake correspondents are
pressing home upon the Board of Super
yisors. They are declaring with truth
that the last feather has been put on the
camels' back and that these operations
must cease. The people are called upon
to make their wishes known in a manner
so emphatic that they will not be misun-
derstood. Says the Gazette
Let the taxpayers of each Police District
in the county hold public meeting and give
an expression of opinion as to the duty of
the Board of Supervisors on the subject
We feel confident that the Board would
gladly respect such an expression of the
public opinion and conform its action strict
" in con formity therewith.

MURDER AND ROBBERY IN MILFORD, CONN. Prominent Citizen iSaot Dead in His Oun House by q Burglar. -One of those terrible events that thrill with horror the communities in which they occur, took place in this quiet village early this morn ing. MT. Nathan Fenn, a prominent merchant, widely known and respected in this neighborhood, was shot dead in his own house by burglars, who subsequently escaped. Mrs. Fenn was awakened about two o'clock by a noise as of some person in the house. and arousing her husband, he immediately got up and proceeded to the dining room, where he was met by the burglars, for from all appearances, there was more than one. They had entered by window, but, had opened none of the outer doors; and being thus caught before they had time to escape, they turned upon MT. Fenn, and shot him down. He cried out, "I am shot," and almost instan tly ex- pired. The robbers immediately escaped. Mrs. Fenn alarmed the neighborhood; !; the bells were rung, and the town aroused. but no trace of the murderers could be found. MT. Fenn was shot through the left arm, the ball then entering his left side, just over the hip bone. and glancing downward toward the back bone. The robbers took with them Mir. Fenn's pants, which they must have taken from his chamber; but his. pocket-book was found under the bed. where he was accustomed to leave 1t.
 A few hours previous, the house of a neighbor, a MT. Wood, had been entered. and gold watch and eighty dollars in money, taken. A certain style of square matches burned down and probably used by the robbers for light. being found in both, indicates that the robbery and murder are by the same hand. The most intense excitement prevails, and no stone will be left unturned to discover the per- petrators. The. town of Milford has offer ed a reward of $1, ,0O0 for their apprehen- sion. Chief Marsh and officer Arnold, o1 Bridgeport, went over to Milford on We'd nesday morning to look at the case. MT. Fenn was we'll known in Bridgeport, and his terrible death has created profound sensation. A Coroner's inquest and post mortem examination were made on Wed. nesday afternoon Y. Herald.
