THEY MET BUT ONCE.

The following poem is from the serapl
heart of the late Miss Louisa Chitwood, o
whose death the glorious Prentice once bean
tlnlly said: at was rs If n tree in the mids
of all Its wealth of April bloom were upren
by the whirlwind; as ifa young eagle spring
ing upward to the Sky were stricken down by
the fowler's shaft; as II n young star mount

blOtted in mid career from existence. ED

They met but once--as clouds Of light,
On some blue lake of sky.
Touch their soft cheeks some summers night
And link their misty hands OF white,
Then separate for aye
They met but once--as mlndrops meet
In summers radiant bow.
II was enough to show how fleet
How like n rose leaf brief and sweet
Are perfect hours below.
Into her placid soul lie gazed,
lie knew twas pure and falr;
And when to his her orbs were raised,
Her heart was not abashed, amazed
To see her image there.
No earth-love caused single thrill
Topulsatc III his breast;
And star-like, suddenly and still,
Like sunset on some lake-hill rill,
Her thoughts went down to rest.
They parted, as those clouds that swept
Gross the sky above;
Each for the other kept
y holy Thought that never slept, :.
illuminate with love.
They parted when the moons fair rim
Was resting on the sea
How could his heart fail, nope grow dlln"-

are being passed by the various
Legislatures, which they must sustain, or

GriGGs S4ueIched.

To get TIE grain of sense in the At
torney Generals opinion in this case. we
have encountered our columns with the
whole bushcl of cha4f and fustian. The
unavoidable conclusion from the plain
law is, that Griggs is ineligible, and it
has come to pass that the foolishness of
an INSCRIPTIONS majority has spared the
State the bad consequences of a partisan
election.
With characteristic improperly, the
Attorney General has logged into his
opinion a variety of irrelevant matter
We presume that Hon. Mr. Street will
respond to the imputation upon his mo-
tives; but we will anticipate his action
by saying that it is untrue that he was "a
candidate. He received probably a
single vote and peremptorilY declined per-
hitting the use of his name for the office
1t may be true that Messrs. Niles,
Chandler, Hancock and other judicial
officers appointed by Gov. Alcorn have
virtually perjured themselves by violating
the Constitution they are sworn to sup
port, and have drawn 5000 from the
Treasury illegally, but what has all that
to do with the case of Griggs and why
has not the grave matter been brought
up before this time by the custodians of
the constitution and laws of the State
1t may be true as charged God forbid
that we should enter plea for any of the
set) that ''the wife of H. r. Pease," has
been drawing money from the Treasury
she never earned or in other words, OBJ
tanning it under false pretences, but why
has not the Attorney General, Who is one
of the Board of Public Education, raised
the issue, and stopped the game before
now?
1t may be true that number of mem
bers voted for Griggs (carpet-baggers are
meant, we infer at the last moment,
knowing that he could not fill the office !;
but what has their double-dealing to do
with the law of the case presented by the
Auditor to the Attorney General for ex-
position ?
P. s. After the for egoing was written,
the card of Hon. Ell. M. Street inserted
elsewhere) was handed in.

RFGTsTRATTON.
The Law TrampIed Under Foot
ina Marshall County

In another column will be found
communication from Marshall stating
that the Conservatives have been ex-
cluded from the Board of Registration
in that county. This proceeding is sim
ply infamous, and bears on Its face
premeditated intent to carry the election
by fraud. If fair election was intended
there would be no objection on the part
of the appointing power to give both
sides representation in the Board. Our
correspondent asks if this proceeding Is
not only unjust, but violation OF law
1t undoubtedly is. The act Of the last
Legislature changed the mode of appoint
ment, but did not repeal the provisions of
the former law, with which it did not
conflict This law requires that " all of
''said Registrars shall not be members of
''the same political party" (Revised
Code, p. 50, Sec 340) A violation of
this La,o inroIrea perjury, and IS proof Of
the basest design on the part of those ochO
are guilty of It, We have taken it for
granted that the citizens of Marshall
county, whose rights are thus trampled
under foot, will not tamely acguiesce in
the fraud If a similar violation of law
and Justice has been committed in other
counties, we trust that the perpetrators
will be held up to the scorn they deserve.
Meantime we would urge upon Conserva-
tives who may, under the law, happen to
be invested with the appointing power,
the utmost fairness in its exercise. Let
them care take in every instance to give
the Opposition representation in the
Boards of Representation. If they have
failed to do SO, let them reconsider Their
action at once. They cannot afford tc
initiate the example which has been sci
in Marshall, and which we cannot believe
will be persisted in even there.
P. S.-Since the above was put in type,
we have seen a correspondence between
Messrs. j. w. G. Watson, H. w. Wal
ter, Howard Falconer, and one hundred
and fifty other citizens of Marshall county
and tie members of the appointing Board
on the subject of the appointments. In
the reply of Judge Orlando Davis to the
remonstrance of the citizens, he states his
belief that j. NJ. Vowel, one of the APP
pointees, g is not a member of the same
political party as the other two
thereby admitting that the law requires
that both parties should be represented in
the Registration Board But in reply it
is stated that Vowel holds the Office of
Deputy Postmaster under Gill, and at
the last election voted for Gill, Buchan-
an, Nabers and Hill. With this evidence
before the Judge, and his admission that
the law requires that a Conservative
should be appointed, there is but one
course for him, if he is a conscientious,
upright man, to pursue, and that is to
make another appointment. 1t will be a
shocking thing for Judge, who is a
| sworn conservator of the laws, to set the
example of openly violating them.

The Farmers Movement.

This movement is compelling the &C.
acknowledgements and the respect of all
classes of people. Partisan journals
which have been welded to the estab-
lished order of things, and had never
printed a line In opposition to the monop-
olies by which the producers of the soil
have heen robbed until patience has ceased
to be virtue-are at last driven by the
force of public opinion to speak out in
encouragement of the movement and to
bid it God speed. Here is what the
Baltimore American says:
The farmers movement has pa ssed its in
cipient stages, and is arriving at condition
of such thorough organization that its sup
porters may be considered as constituting q
Sparty." This means more, perhaps, than
appears at first sight = It is this
that gives the movement its political sig
nificance; body of men so organized as to
be capable of intelligent, concerted action,
must necessarily exert great influence in.
politics. Its creation as party will pre-
vent its force being diverted into other
channels, and its men viii be chosen in re-
dent that fiscal and economical matters will
be raised to the first importance in the pol
iticS of the future. Much of what has
heretofore been set forth upon the subject
is outrageous folly. and win disappear be- i
fore the dint Of criticism, but we think that I
some tangible expression of doctrine WIN
be promulgated.

Mrs. Robert E. Lee, widow of the
great general, on Tuesday visited for the
first time her Arlington home, which de-
scended to her as an heirloom from her
ancestors, and of which she has been
robbed by the Government. She found
everything changed; the beautiful
grounds in front of the house were
turned into "a graveyard, and two OF
three of the old servants were still on
the place, and in parting with them for
the last time they were all moved to
tears.

The Vicksburg Times, which seems to
be going for the Bully Boy in real No
doc Jack style, inquiries if THE CLARIoN's
version of the Musgroye CORES
pondence was uerbatim ct iteratim. We
can only reply that we copied it, as we
found it secondhand in another news
paper. If the Auditor had conceded the
public's right to the correspondence, and
had furnished us with it in accordance
with our repeated application, instead OF
resorting to the sly method by which it
was first published, there would have
been no occasion for complaint by him,
nor for the intimation contained in the
inquiry of his organ.
By the way, since Modest Muss has
shown himself to be an expert, as he
has done in this correspondence, in or
biography and elegant literature, it is
shrewdly suspected that he has half an
eye to the SUPPLEMENTARY of Public Ed
ucation.
