A working Suit For Farmers.

Farmers and mechanics need some
kind of substantial working dress
one that is cheaply made and easily put
on and comfortably worn. 1t is very
expensive working in a good suit of
clothes and exposing them to the yari-
Gus kinds Of labor incident to. farm Hfe.
Put on pair of new pants and get into
an apple tree to trim or graft it, or go
to repairing fences, and you will be
sure TO make rent in them before
they are day old, Such thing rarely
happens to an cid pair. We invented
a dress several years since which we
have used and recommended to Others,
much to their satisfaction. 1t is a
sleeve vest closed in front, and trows-
ers in one piece, with only one fasten-
ing with strap behind the neck. The
sleeve may be made sufficiently large
enough to wear over a coat. The ma
terial should be made OF. blue drilling.
Thus at trifing expense man can
be readily fitted to grapple with any
kind of work without a constant fear of
tearing or soiling his clothes, while the
cost is not one-tenth part of suit of
ordinary clothing. It will often be
found convenient to weaFsin hot wealth
er without any other clothing than a
shirt. Any clever housekeeper who
can make pair of summer pants, can
make one of these most useful articles.
The only difficulty usually is not buy
ing cloth enough to have them made
sufficiently large. The suit should be
large enough to wear over other gar
ments, if necessary, and when the days
work is done it NAV be removed. 9TH
ers substituted, and the farmer is in
complete trim to sit down ofan evening
dressed in clean clothes and ready to
engage in conversation, reading, or any
other amusement suited to a rational
and intelligent mind. The cost of such
a suit is trifing, and is more than
made up by what it saves of other
clothes. IL Maine Farmer.

A New System of Credit

An enterprising and fair-dealing bus
iness man in Augusta was, lately met
at the door of his grocery by an honest
looking Frealchman, an entire stranger
to him, who asked credit for barrel
of -four. ~ pay half re cash down and
re balance next Saturday sure. The
merchant; with hesitation, ! turned to
one of the clerks, and, with kindly
smile on the would-be owner of the bar
rel of flour, said: "This good man
wants toget trusted for a barrelo -four;
he'll payha1 down and the rest next
Saturday. I'll risk him, he is as good
as gold; open a fresh barrel, weigh out
half, deliver it in good shape at his
house, put the barrel way safely, and
take it down next Saturday, when he
pays the rest; never refuse to trust an
honest docking man for bread. !" 1t was
done; the money was paid, and the
French gentleman departed, rejoicing
in an abundance of -four and unlimited
credit. ~ s,4zic

FoRrY-oNE THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR SIN
GLE PRINTING JoB--AN UNHEARD
OF ExToRTIoN.

The Mongrels in the Legislature, whose
whole efforts were concentrated in the
one object of devising means for grinding
taxes out of the impoverished people and
enriching the Rings which were formed
for their consumption, passed an act
authorizing the publication in pamphlet
form of a list of lands in the several
counties forfeited to the State for taxes.
We will premise that the law was total
ly useless as means of advertising these
lands, for they had been already pub
lished in the official journal.
The pamphlet thus ordered to he Prin-
ted, consists of 600 pages. The account
rendered against the State for the job
was twenty-eight thousand dollars (s2S,-
O00.) For this immense sum Auditor
Musgrove, ,chO as charged.'cih being part
ner IN the printing job, has issued his
warrant ON the Treasury.
But this is not all. A supplemental
bill for upwards of thirteen thousand dol
lars has been presented for tie same job
as Appendix to the House journal
the same type being used-the only ex-
pense to publishers for the work being
paper, stationery, folding and press-work.
The publication of the pamphlet which
did not cost the publishers exceeding
81, 800, was simply a gratuity to the.
Printing Ring. The charge of s13, 600
has not the pretence of law nor of a
farthing's valuable consideration to the
public. The Constitution declares that
no money shall be drawn from the trea-
sury except on appropriation made by
law.

Local Questions.

An esteemed correspondent writes us
in reference to the political prospect in
the county of his residence, saying:
We are much embarrassed by courthouse
and county division questions. / think we
will reconcile them, and if so, we will carry
the county.
This is one of many letters we have
received of the same tenor. We know
the absorbing nature of local questions
and have apprehended the consequences
mentioned by our correspondents. We
implore our people who want to be re-
lieved from the oppression, corruption
and grinding taxation of Radical misrule
to postpone these local questions for
future time when the affairs of the State,
rescued from the common foe, will be in
the hands of bona fde citizens who
will deal justly and fairly with all classes
and parties. This paramount object ac-
complished, they can address themselves
to the adjustment of local differences.
Hei no true Mississippian who will sac
rifice the public good to local, or
personal triumph. Every taxpayer
knows that there will be nothing to save
from ''the wreck, if the present plumber
ing regime is continued in power with
license to proceed in the way they have
Courthouse questions are well enough
in their places, but they do not belong to
the present canvass.

A Serious Charge.

Notwithstanding Gov. Alcorn assured
the federal authorities that such was the
pacific spirit of the people of this State
that her civil authorities could enforce
the law, it has been charged in the Stark
vile New Era that he employed counsel
with the Secret Service Fund TO prosecute
the citizens arrested by U. S. troops in
Oktibbeha county and carried to Marshall
county for trial before u. S. Commits
sioner-thus giving his official sanction
to that outrageous proceeding, though it
was derogatory to his own Administration,
and contemptuous disregard of his own
pledge, and thus dedicating to infamous
purposes money collected from the people
to defray the expenses of the State
government?
Is this charge true? Can our cotem-
poraries at Holly Springs where the trial
is progressing, give us light?

A Model CarPet-Basger.

The sentence of Bowen, the Radical
ex-Congressman from South Carolina, to
the Penitentiary for bigamy, is the first
example of the lawful punishment of the
"rascally adventures who came South at
the close of the war, out-at-elbows to
make their fortunes" He alleges that
he was cheated out of his seat in Con-
gress by a vagabond carpet-bag darkey;
and the Washington Chronicle consoles
him with the assurance that his COMPETE
tor will soon follow in his footsteps.
