The Seaside Hotel at Bay St. Louis is
now as fine place to spend Sunday as one
can find on the sound, and to pass the en-
tire summer is unequaled in its accom-
modations for private families. Under the
control of Messrs. Mordean and Kittredge,
formerly of the Academy of Music, backed
up by Durbridge, the POydras street hat
ter, these are assurances enough that this
favorite resort will afford to strangers
every hospitality.

mercial agents which the United States
sends into all countries for the purposes
of trade, and to secure valuable informa-
ton.
Some doubt having been cast upon the
reality of the discovery and some sus-
picions having been urged that the State
Department at Washington was allowing
itself to be used in the interest of newly
discovered medicine, Vice President Col
fax has responded in favor of the plant,
and in such way that no one will hardly
question its medicinal virtues hereafter.
Mr.. Colfax says that his mother was hope
lessly stricken with cancer which was
violent and active, threatening to destroy
her life in very short time. No remedy
could be found to arrest its growth until
cundurango was applied. In four days
signs of improvement were visible, and
at the end of nine days the patient per-
ceived that the disease is going away.
How it cures is as difficult to explain,
says the Vice President, as to tell why
Peruvian bark cures chills. 1t has quality
that separates the blood form the poison
which creates cancer. The patient in this
case is now almost completely restored,
although she has not taken the remedy in
full degree, owing to its scarcity.
The government of the United States
has dispatched an order to South America
for a supply of this remedy, and when it
arrives we have no doubt measures. will be
taken to place it within the reach Of all
at reasonable rates. In the meantime it
will be well to remember that there is
none in the country, and that any medi-
cine which may be advertised as cundu-
range, the new cure for cancer, will
simply be fraud upon the public.

The COurier-JOrndl affects to believe
that the mob which lynched Meara, in
Illinois, for roasting his little son to
death on a hot stove, was a Ku-Klux
gang, and ought to be prosecuted by the
government. There may be something
about Kentucky whisky which befuddles
the editorial reason, or there may be a
constitutional weakness in some men
which makes them Democrats, and we
rather think there is, otherwise it is i'm
possible to account for the very big streak
of stupidity that runs through the fatness
of the Co,wier-Jo,voaI in general news

The New York World, ON the fifth Of
July, in the year of our national indie

the amendments to the constitution were
valid, and accepted of the same. If it
takes the World, which is a very bright

years to discover as plain truth as the
above, how long will it require to con-
vince the ordinary men of the party to
arrive at the same conclusion? Three

According to the census returns of the
British empire, England has gained thir-
teen per cent of population within the
last ten years, and Scotland nine per
cent, while Ireland has absolutely lost
about ten per cent on her census of 1860.
There is falling off in Ireland of over
four hundred thousand people, where
there should have been a natural increase
of about five hundred thousand, making
an actual loss to Great Britain of nearly
million of inhabitants in ten years. At
this rate, in a few generations, there will
be no Irish in Ireland. The census
agents account for the depletion by the
immense emigration to America, and it is
now puzzling the English statesmen to
discover way to stop the flow of people
out of the country.

A sensible man named Huggens de-
clined to testify against the Ku-klux be-
cause he SAID if he told the truth his wife
and five children would have to leave
Northern Mississippi. As the govern
ment gives but little protection, it can not
reasonably expect to get large crop of
witnesses. Men who have been run
away, and who never intend to return to
the South, may tell the whole story of
Republican persecution; but people who
are here, and who expect to stay here,
find it judicious to be silent about what
they think, and very discreet about
telling what they know. Huggens was
frank enough to say that the decent peo-
pie in the South should not be held re-
sponsible for the Ku-Klux, but that the
entire blame ought to be placed on the
rowdies and loafers that live in idleness.

COOPER and REESE, Sercnty-t,c0 thou
~and dollars in bonds of the State for
heir service as lawyers. These grn-
tlemen, il appears, were appointed
under the authority of an act Of the
last Legislature which fixed their
compensation not to exceed 1000
each which the taxpayers Of the
state will consider rather round

The report Of the Committee ap-

The Tax Question, Again.

Our esteemed contemporary of the
Memphis appeal altogether rn;sap-
prehends the meaning and puriort OF
our article in last week s issue 4 HE
HERALD on the tax question. we
readily see how both our contemporary
of the appeal and Governor hH"WN,
may desire TO relieve the peol:e from
the oppressive burdens of taxation on
the one hand, and how thCr may
honestly differ as TO the best means
that will accomplish this re-U.f, on
the other hand. We believe 18th of
them earnestly desire the attainment
ofthe same object, but differ g: ), rs
they differ honestly, as 10 the loIicy
the means TO be employed. The
ADpem desires taxes reduced 10 the
lowest rate that will meet t'le de-
nIands of carrying on the Sta.C 'iov-
ernment, and believes thirty cents on
The hundred dollars will be suft.. .cnt;
Governor BROWN wishes the same
end accomplished, but is of cGinion
il Will require a higher rate OF TAXA
ton. The one does not want taxes
reduced below the absolute ana ne
cessary demands, nor does the ether
desire them raised TO q higher rate
than will answer this purpose.
Therefore, why should there he a diff
ference on this subject, further than
20 ascertain after mature elaboration
what viii actually be necessary 10
attain the end which both have in
view, in common with all good citi-
zens who are actuated and prompted
by the desire TO secure the welfare
and prosperity of the whole people.
We want the people of Tennessee re-
.ieVed and taxes reduced TO the lowest
possible fraction that will meet the
demands upon us. We believe Gov
aTnor BROWN desires the same thing.
The appeal has hattled bravery for
this result. II has advanced no aTgu-
ment infavor of low taxes tina; we
fave not heartily approved; and in
doing this we do not conceivewe diff
'er from the spirit and purpose OF our
able and distinguished Governor.
