Appeal 10 Patriots.

We call the attention of all Exon
federates to the following appeal, which
has been recently issued by ex-Confed-
crates at Richmond, Virginia. Capt
John I. Buck, of this place, has been
officially appointed to receive contribu-
tions, and, we trust, for the honor of
Mississippi, that he will be able to re-
port considerable amount. Let ex-
Confederates in every town and neigh
borhood collect something, if it be but
So or SO, and forward it to Capt. Buck.
We particularly urge this upon all ex-
members of the I'd, 18th, 18th, 18th,
10th, 18th, 18th, 10Th, 21st AID and
48th Mississippi Regiments, and the
friends of those who were members of
those regiments. Virginia has already
re-interred in Richmond the remains of
many Mississippians. Shall she be per-
mitted to do the whole of this holy work,
unaided by Mississippi SomeL weeks
since we published list of the gallant
dead of Mississippi, who at the hands of
Virginia have received a final resting
place in Holly Wood Cemetery:

spending to the universal wish Of the
Democratic and Conservative party of
the State, before any steps whatever
were taken in the formation of an cleo
toral ticket, this distinguished Missis-
sippian was telegraphed, in the name of
the Central Executive Committee, in
forming him that it was the unanimous
desire of the Committee to place him at
the head of the ticket. He responded,
regretting that his private engagements
would absolutely forbid him to make
such a canvass as the position would re-
quire at his hands, and on this ground
declining the offer. His whole soul, how
ever, is in the good work, and we have
the assurance that he will strike blows
wherever he is able in the canvass.

In regard to the cultivation Of cigars,
Horace Greeley is said, by readers OF
that admirable treatise, " What 1 know
about farming" to advise growers to be
careful in planting them with the small
ends in ground; they should be set in
rows about four inches apart, the rows to
be no less than two feet from each other ;
care should be taken to keep them well
watered, for if allowed to become dry as
they grow, they peel, and won't smoke
worth cent. By keeping them well
watered, in about three months they will
be ready for gathering in bunches of
twenty-five and fifty. They may then be
packed into boxes and sent to market
after they have been properly stamped" J."

THE CADI's JUsTICE.-The old Ter
taiiOnis or rule Of "eye for eye" tooth
for TOOTH" is now considered cruel in
practice, and is rarely enforced in civilized
courts, but the threat of it is sometimes
wholesome, as showing the danger il
might bring to the puni>her.
A poor Turkish slater, Of CONSTANT
nople, being at work upon the roof of a
house, lost his footing and fell into the
narrow street upon a man who chanced
to be passing st the time.
The pedestrian was killed by the con-
cussion, while the slater escaped without
material injury.
A son Of the deceased caused the slater
to be arrested and brought before the
Cadi, where he made the most grave
charge, and claimed ample redress.
The Cadi listened attentvely, and in
the end asked the slater what he had to
say in his defense.
dispenser of justice" answered the
accused, in a humble mood, sit is even
as this man says; but God forbid that
there should be evil in my heart. / am
a poor man, and know not how l can
make amends"
The son Of the man who had been
killed, thereupon demanded that condgn
punishment should be inflicted upon the
accused.
The Cadi reflected a few moments,
and finally said:
"It shall be so.'
Then to the slater he continued,
"Thou shalt stard in the street where
the father of this man stood when thou
didst fall upon him."
And to the accuser he added,
And thou shalt, if it so please thee, go
upon the roof, and fall upon the culprt.
even as he did fall upon thy father.
