HERE is something too good to lose, and
as true as it is good, which we have never
seen in print. When Gen. Ames was first
appointed Provisional Governor Of Missis-
sippi, Gov. Ben. Humphreys, who had re-
Gently been elected and installed in Office,
was exercising the executive ftfnctons.
Gov. Charles Clark, however, who hsd been
taken from the capital q prisoner TO Fort
Pulaski, while trying to exercise the fonc.
tions Of the Office in way which time and
experience have since proven to be the best
way TO speedy and successful reconstruc-
ton claimed to be the Governor de iure,
and used TO tell his warm personal friend,
Humphreys as much, when the latter would
reply to Clark, in friendly wny, "WeII,
Clark, you may be Governor de iure but,
I'm Governor de laeto.o After q while
came the appointment Of Ames, and in due
time, the latter, with bayonets at bis back,
ousted Humphreys from the Governors
Mansion and himself became Governor de
facto. Some days after Humphreys was
pushed out, Clark and Humphreys met,
when the following conversation onsued:
Humphreys ys-"Well, Clark, how about it
now, old fellow? Some time ago you
claimed to be Governor de jure, and was
Governor de facto Now, Ames is Gov
ernor de facto, and if you are Governor de-
| iure, then what am | n
Clark well Ben, you're Governor de

THE HIGHEsT KIND OF PowER.-Alf
men love power who are capable of
welding power, but there are grades and
kinds Of power. All men love but each
mans love takes the quality of his nature.
The noble love nobIy the base, basely; the
common, commonly. The feeling that
bound together in sweet aud sublime ac-
cord Goethe and Schiller, the noblest pair
Of lovers since Socrates aud Plato, was on
ly called love ard the Instinct that origi-
naily drew Bill Skies to the side Of Nancy
was also love OF the Skies quality, the best
he had to bestow. In like measure, power
Of as many prades "a there are OF men.
