The Bridge Question.

The card of our young friend, the
Mayor, in vindication of the refusal OF
the municipal authorities to avail them
selves in behalf of the people of the town,
of the opportunity to apply their bridge
tax to the purchase of the bridge across
Pearl river, will be found elsewhere. -
We are not amazed at the uneasiness
which their folly, to use mid term, has
caused them. The defence of the Mayor
is plausible, but the excuse offered is more
specious than real. 1t is simply quib-
bling. The meaning of the law author
izing the remission of the town tax for
bridge purposes, is that such remission
shall be made in whatever form the tax
is to be paid. jackson will pay certain
portion of the tax levied for that purpose,
and under the law, whatever it may be,
would have been properly applicable to
the purchase of the property, if its intent
had not been defeated by the casting vote
of the Mayor. Its object and meaning
are plain, and if the evasion which the
Mayor imagines had been attempted, it
would have simply amounted to nothing.
The truth is, the authorities for rea-
sons not satisfactorily explained to the
public, have wantonly thrown away an
opportunity to possess the town of a vaIu-
able property. And it will result in per-
manent injury to its prosperity. Its best
trade has heretofore come from East of
Pearl river, and this trade has been seri-
ously crippled the present season. 1t will
be worse next yeaf When the planters be-
yond the river, despairing of getting re-
lief from the onerous tax on their
produce and travel, will make their ar
to trade at other points. 1t
is shame that people who come to Jack

tax at the very entrance ofthe corporate
limits; indeed, almost within its very

A Call for the Reunion of the
18th Regiment Mississippi
Volunteers

Below we publish card from Colonel
Thomas M. Griffin, calling upon all sur
viving members of the gallant 18th Mis-
sissippi regiment, which he led with so
much credit to himself and the regiment
in the most dreadful battles which were
fought in Virginia, to meet at Canton on
the 1st of December next. Other Missis-
sippi regiments have already had their
reunions, and it is proper that the 18th,
than whom there was no better in the
Army of Northern Virginia, should as
semble and devise means whereby the
memory of their eomrades-who gave up
their lives upon every battle field, on
which that glorious army recorded its
name in golden letters in history, from
Manassas to Appomatox Court House,
shall be perpetuated.
As this regiment was from the counties
of Rankin, Kinds, Madison, Yazoo, and
Holmes, Col. Griffin has selected Canton
for the meeting as the most central point

THE CREED TAYLOR CAsE.-The
participators in the Greenwood meeting
petitioning Gov. Alcorn, with some ex-
pressions of confidence based on his long
residence in Mississippi, not to abandon
the Executive Office for seat in the Sen
ate, are referred to the article copied
from the Vicksburg Herald, commenting
on his interference to prevent the execu-
ton of the sentence of the Court in the
case of the colored man, Greed Taylor.
The facts are of shocking import. The
fend had gratified his revenge by the de-
liberate murder of little boy; and had
also imbued his hands in the blood of an
innocent woman. The proof being clear,
and the crime having no extenuating fea-
ture, he was found guilty and sentenced
to be capitslly punished. At this point
the Executive interposed his authority to
save the life of the murderer, and to cheat
justice of its dues. The outraged com
munity had curbed their Indignation
which called for the summary punish
ment of the criminal, in their desire to let
the law take its course. But their law
abiding example has been compensated
by witnessing the potential interference
of the Governor to prevent its execution.
Thus do those in authority, by overrid-
ing justice to subserve partizan purposes,
persist in tempting the people in self-de-
fence, to adopt means for their own pro-
lection. Nevertheless we invoke them to
avoid this method of redress to look con-
fdently and to strive industriously to ac-
complish the needed reform at the polls
which some time or other will be open to
them. Two wrongs do not make right

Sensible McComb.

1t seems that Mr.. McComb, President
of the New Orleans and Jackson, and OF
the Mississippi Central Railroad compan-
les, has refused to take the bogus curren-
CIV known as Certificates of Indebtedness,
at par for freight and passenger charges
on those roads. For thus refusing 10 be-
come a party to the swindle which the

ing to practice on the people af the State,

which would result from an effort TO force

illegal and fraudulent currency, the Pilot
threatens to call down upon McComb the
vengeance Of the Mongrel lawmakers-to
take from one of the Roads its franchise
for noncompliance with the conditions OF
Its charter, and TO place the concern in the
hands of a receiver, ETC., etc. 1t is a
little strange that the organ of the Cover
nor did not wake up to the delinquency
of the new management of the N. o. d j.
Road until its course in reference TO these
Certificates" became known. We can
not say what effect the threat to levy
black mail will have; but we will venture
to predict that McComb knows the
ground he occupies, and will not be
frightened from his propriety. Doubtless
he holds a strong hand and will know
how to play it. Nor can he be unap-
priced of the waning power and influence
of the present rulers in this State, who
owe their position solely to agencies
which have passed out of existence.

The st. Louis Republican Is jubilant
at the victory of the Liberals and Con-

Missouri elections. The Liberals have
elected their Governor and State ticket
by the aid of Conservative votes, and
the Conservatives have gained in Con-
pressional Representation, and carried
the Legislature, which will assure the
election ola true man to the Senate in
place of the reptile, Drake. Speaking of
the result, the Republican says:
The tumbling of the walls of Jericho be-
fore the blasts of Joshua's trumpeters was
not more signal than the tnmbling of the
laborionsly fortified fabric of Radicalsun in
Missouri beneath the moral power of the
passive Democracy.
In Missouri. The fetrers which Mr.. Drake
and his party forged in 1865 and 1866 and

The STOLEN BooKs.-Inr recent issues
we have mentioned that second install
ment of the books stolen by Furniss and
Werles, from the Library, had mysteri-
ously made their appearance in the Capt.
toll, since the trial of those worthless, before
the committing magistrates; and with a
view to draw out the facts which promi-
nent officials did not seem inclined to
make known, we mentioned that Auditor
Musgrove had been heard to make inqui-
ries on the subject, and expressed astOnish-
ment that the public had not been inform
ed of the result of his investigations into
the misconduct of these pet Radical
officials. We have since learned through
him the following facts: The books in
question were stolen property. They
were discovered at the boarding house OF
Furniss, and the discovery was reported
to the Governor, who ordered them to be
returned to the Library. We'were not in
error about the stealing and restoration
of the books, and our object in bringing
the facts to light has been accomplished.
The depredations of these robbers, bad
as they are, are mere drop in the bucket
com pared to the wholesale robbery which
is soon to be committed by the party in
power upon the taxpayers under the
cover of the laws for the'collection of rev
enue.
