The Canton Mail quotes the declaration
of a Radical paper, the Holly Springs
Star. that midnight outrages in this State
must cease, and says that upon such ca
luminous imputations as these, applica-
ton has been made by Gov. Alcorn for
saddling the expense of an armed Militia
upon the people and harrassing them with
banditti commissioned to outrage and
plumber, as in the case of the other States
where a set of rulers, hostile to the white
population have been put in authority
The Mail pertinently asks, who has heard
of these "outrages?" Where did thew
occur? And when? Who are the vic
''tims of such atrocities? Whose homes
''have been burnt? Whose lives have
''been taken?" And Sin the name of the
people outraged by plumber and misrep-
''resentation," the Mail demands the
''proof of the charges" which have gone
out to the world in the form of an adj
dress to the Legislature from the occupant
of the executive office.
We see that Carter, the negro orator
from Memphis, not having yet gotten any
thing snug from the Legislature is a can
didate for Commissioner of Immigration.
His announcement was Immediately fol-
lowed by the withdrawal of Gen. West,
who ought, in the light of the public well
fare, to be elected, from among the list Of
those who are candidates, bv reclamation,
but who probably was seized with a pro-
found disgust. Carriers services to the
Radical party in the canvass unquestion-
ably exceeded those of many others who
have received their reward and are book
ed for high places. But cannot he be
placed in some other position besides that
of Commissioner of Immigration Why
not give him slice of the Secret Service
Fund which has been placed at the dispo-
sal OF the Governor for the enforcement
of the criminal laws of the Stateg"
THE MIssIssIPPI CENrRAI. RAILROAD

near Oxford in February, on the most
liberal terms, and that no suits viii be

their proceedings as reported for the pres.
1t has occurred to me that IL you desire TO
make The CLARION a really popular paper
you can do it by publishing a syllabus of the

Governor. This can easily be done, and

that means be informed of what il really

Our esteemed correspondent viii have
seen from the last CLARION that his sug-
gestion has been anticipated. The only
acts and resolutions as yet approved BY
the Governor, appeared in last paper.
Yesterday was the thirty-fifth day of the
session, and no law of public nature
has yet been passed. There is a vast
amount of ceremony and circumlocution,
and, as the result shows, but little BUSH
ness is done.

PRINCE ARTHUR IN THIS CITY.

Prince Arthur returned from Washington on
Saturday night and yesterday morning, accompanied by
the British Consul and five other gentlemen he attended
service Trinity Church On his entrance the National
anthem OF Great Britain played The regular serv'
ices OF the day were solemnzed by the Rev. Dr. Oglby
the Rev. Mr.. whippe, and tho Rev. DR.. yinton. The
Rev. Dr. Dix preached the from the 18th verse;
25h chapter OF ST. Matthew the parable OF the talents
which he taught that every has his accountability
proportoned the position he holds In the world The
music consisted OF tho ordinary service, Including
the Te Deum and Jubilate, the anthem, "Ihe
Grace Of God that bringeth Salvation" and the
oGertory "And the Glory Of the Lord" from
Handers Messiah" Mr.. A. II. Messiter conducted the
music OF the choir, whie John Morgan presided at the
great organ solo in the anthem by Master LIN
dig, chorister Of remarkable strength OF voice and
purity OF expression, greatly admired It was no
tced singular coincidence that the lesson for the SOth
day the I46th Psalm in which occurs the caution,
Put not your trust in princes In any child OF man,
for there help in them" The choir boys as they
ntoned this verse; seemed relish the sentiment hugely
and their untimely though excusable mirh, was with
some difficulty repressed. A large crowd were
present during the services. The Prince occu-
pied tho same seat when mis- eider
brother occupied when he worshiped in old Trinity;
and after the departure OF the distinguished visitor
number OF young ladies rushed into the pew, at
tme enjoy the ecstasy OF sitting where i've prince
had sat. -,
After leaving Trinity, Prince Arthur took turn In the
Park and afternoon attended service at the BCK
