THE CONGRESSIONAL RACE

We have been of the opinion, and are of
the opinion, and shall, for an indefinite
period, continue to be of the opinion, that
Hon. Geo. w. Wall is the man of the
three men named in connection with the
Democratic and Liberal nomination for
Congress In this district who would be the
strongest candidate.
Because we have said this we have had
the friends of Messrs. Hartzell and Jones
assert, with an appearance of indignation
with the complaining voices of ou,ra,sa
gentlemen possessed Of sensitive disposi
iions--that we are the mouth piece O
"the Cairo ring"
Without anger, almost sorrowfully-be
cause we, too, are of the sensitive kind
we have denied this charge, and do again re
iterste that denial. The friends of Mr.. Wal
in Cairo have not been our friends. Thi
fact We make public with tear of regre

We have on our hands quarrel with
Hon. VIM. II. Green. He persists in the
claim that he was the original Greeley
Democrat Of Egypt, and we know we
were. Under our careful instructions the
Judge and all the other Democrats of our
acquaintance have been led slowly into
the pleasant pastures and by the placid
waters of Progressive Democracy. And
now are we-(we ask this with an agoniz-

opinion are the neglected Of the world)-
are we to be robbed Of tho honor of being

Ii is hardly necessary 10 inform the major
ity Of our readers OF a fact 80 generally known
as that General Wilson. the Grant candidate
for Nice-President, was a conspicuous leader
of the know.Nothin party. This party was
organized to prevent by means OF secret as
sociations, the extension of the rights of
American citizens to foreigners until they
had undergone q probation Of twenty-one
years residence in the United States. Ii also
aimed at the control of the General Govern
ment and the exclusion of adopted
citizens from all positions Of honor
and trust. At one time the know.Nothing
movement assumed formidable proportions,
but IL was successfully combated by men OF
enlarged and liberal views, among whom
Horace Greeley stood pre-eminent. Gen.
eral Wilson owed his first election to the
United States Senate to the votes of his
know-Nothing friends. II the purpose of
the kn0w-Nothings had been accomplished,

precisely how much it costs to go out on
the Mobile railroad, Sundays, to Bay St,
Louis and other waterin gplaees beyond
there This information is now furnished
to them by G. w. R. Bayley, Esq, general
superintendent of the railroad, who an
nOunces, this morning, reduction for Sun
day excursions, to leave here at Oils A. NJ,
aud return to New Orleans on the train
that arrives here at 10 P. NJ.
The fare fer Sunday excursions, to go and
return the same day, is as follows: To Bay
st. Louis and return, 81 50; to Pass Chris
tian and return, So IS; to Mississippi City,
Biloxi, Ocean Springs or East PascagouIa

cursion tickets will tempt our people to ex-
pand their lungs with the seashore air.
