To the resident of large city which, al
though commercially a seaport, is still
essentially inland-tO the resident of large
city, pent up and kept apart from rural
sights and sounds, beholding hardly any
thing more verdant than sun-heated brick
walls, there is something refreshing in the
very words, ''mountain and sea-" The idea
of escape from dusty streets and heated
pavements, from the glare of unmitigated
sunshine, allayed by no breath of breeze; to
escape from this during month or two of
the sitting summer season is certainly an
exhilerating idea. To escape to the far-off
mountains, or to "the glad waters of the
dark blue sea-" to travel, whether business
requires it or not; to go in pursuit of reno
waited health, of mental rest leaving the
cares of life behind for awhile; flying along
on some well appointed railroad, reaching
some far spot where rest and recreation
abound, and there have for few weeks
an unstinted enjoyment of the dolce far
niente. is an attractive idea that every one
will realize whose circumstances permit.
Speaking of railroads, the Illinois Central,
Cairo and Chicago through line is offering
at the present time the means of an exten-
sive and varied excursion to various at
tractive points, at greatly reduced rates.
The company is issuing tickets, good for
ninety days, which takes passengers to
Chicago Detroit, Niagara Falls, down the
st. Lawrence, through the Thousand
Islands, to Montreal, Quebec, the White
and Green mountains, Portland, Boston,
and almost everywhere else at the North
and East. Passengers can go by one route
and return by another, or can stop on the
route and resume the journey at pleasure.
All this, combined with the hot, sitting
weather that at present afflicts us, is GER
tainly no small inducement to secure pas
sage on one of the palatial steamers at our
wharf, which connect with the Central road
at Cairo, and there take the wings of the
locomotive and fly away to distant regions
tor the remainder of the summer.
Colonel James T. Tucker, the general
agent of the Illinois Central, will furnish
every information at his Office, No. 26 Caron.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-Messrs. Scott and
Stephenson, Republicans, and Van Trump,
Democrat, have been appointed as sub
committee to visit certain portions of North
and South Carolina Immediately, to inquire
into the condition of affairs.
The minority Of the ku-klux committee
Are anxious that the conservatives secure q
full hearing before this subcommittee.
1t is understood that the testimony of
jacobsen, the present, and Adams, the ex-
district attorney for Mississippi, is fully sat
isfactOry to the Democrats on the commit
tee.
General Forrest was four hours before
the committee. He said If Ku-klux ever
existed in Tennessee it was on account of
BrownlOw's proclamation of 1867, saying to
the militia they would not be mOIested for
outrages and the punishment of rebels, and
because of the apprehension of injury to
persons and property, many negroes having
left their homes and went prowling through
the country with arms in their hands. Ger
tainly no such organization has existed in
Tennessee since 1868. The, people are as
law abiding, and deprecate disturbances as
much as those living in the North.
The committee treated General Forrest
with much courtesy and respect.
j. X. Smith, chancery court clerk, and
postmaster at Meridian, Mississippi, testi-
fed and attributed the riot at Meridian,
last year, and several other instances of
lawlessness, to the sO-called Ku-Klux.
A large number of witnesses are here,
and coming.
The committee remain in session here at
least two weeks.
A petition has been received, apparently
signed by sixty-seven persons, representing
themselves citizens of Dublin, Fayette
county, Alabama, stating that the lives of
loyal citizens are wholly insecure, and
armed bands, styling themselves Ku-Klux,
are committing Outrages upon law-abiding
citizens, and that the civil authorities are
powerless. They imploringly appeal for
protection.
Mail'six times week has been ordered,
over the Atlantic and Tennessee railroad,
between Charlotte and Statesville, North
Carolina.
President Grant arrives tomorrow, and
remains two days.
Mayor Hail. of New York, writes Presi-
dent Grant that before pardOning C.. C.
Bowen, he should compel disclosure of
the means whereby Bowen secured the
Justification of the court records.
Commissioner Pleasonton decides that
the profits accruing to banks upon the ex-
change of bonds are taxable.

Especial Correspondence of the Republican,
JEFFERSON, june 81, 1871.
Since the date of our last-giving particu.
lars of the horrid assassination of the poor
inebriate ''Middleton"-our town has been
remarkably quiet. A boiler explosion at
saw mill across the bayou, yester-
day, killed one man. and Jared the whole
town.
Business has been more active since the
advance in cotton. Considerable of the
staple has been arriving, and for over a
week past every boat leaving has had a
very respectable number of bales on board.
The total receipts since the first of Septem-
Der have been 81 ,329bales; shipments So 429
bales. At Shreveport, during the same
time, the receipts have been 94,703 bales;
shipments 94,O2e bales-giving this place
about twO-thirds the business in shipping of
Shreveport; but it has sold far more goods
than Shreveport 1t has a population of
perhaps twelve thousand, and has a coun-
try tributary to its commerce comprising
nearly twenty thousand square miles. Its
future growth and improvement may be
considered an assured fact, if the whole
population will devote their energies to pro-
noting the railroad and other improvements
so much needed, and upon which will in a
large measure depend the future prosperity
of jefferson. Stability is what is as much
wanting here as enterprise.
Many people here are new corners, and
do not know their neighbors, hence the lack
of seciability at present. During the war,
many intelligent and refined ladies and
gentlemen assembled here and added
greatly to the society of the town; but with
the close of the war came all the evidences
of depression: the refugees all left, build
ings were dilapidated, business utterly sus-
pended, and all the desolation of con-
quered people sat upon the land. In Au-
gust 1866, not near a thousand people
lived here.
In spite of the many difficulties, planta-
tions were reclaimed and the great staple
rdlccu, So ehde ehC pidnlcr Was again re-
warded, as before the war, with the fruit
of his toll; business assumed shape, system
and method. With these changes, and
large accession of immigrants to the region
round about, came the demand for facili-
ties to do business, and many more houses,
ETC., were built up to 1868, when the great
fire occurred, after which, and steadily up
to this time, have quite number of large,
handsome brick structures been erected,
and the town has began seriously to as
sumo the proportions of city, and also
give evidence of the rapid growth of the
place and the solid prosperity of the
people.
We wish cur space permitted, we would
take pleasure in describing some of these
improvements, also those of public char
acter, as they reflect credit on the taste of
their projectors. JUSTICE.
