MISSISSIPPI.
Destined to be Cursed with Another Pc
rIOd of Confusion and Anarchy.

From the Woodville Republican,
Governor Powers, under the advice and
control of the attorney general, seems deter
mined to hold over, and test the matter in the
courts. This course is certainly TO be regret
ted by all who desire peace and quiet in these
quiet times. 1t does seem that the heavy re-
buke administered to the governor by the
people at the ballot-box ought TO be sufficient
70 satisfy any reasonable man. The interests
of the State of Mississippi ought surely TO
outweigh the private ambitions of Governor
Powers; but IL seems that neither OF these
considerations are to prevail; and we are des-
tined to be cursed with period OF confusion,
at least, If not anarchy. In this course the
governor will not be supported by those who
opposed an election. The leading opposition
papers ars Outspoken in their condemnation
of such action, and he will place himself on
record an INSCRIPTIONS politician, with
whom place is everything, even If the we'll
being Of a whole State is to be sacrificed to
retain it.

1t is needless to asse,.t that r5a Ap

the aid and assistance OF the merchants
Of Memphis in sll that they do for them
selves or for tie city. Our advertising
columns att.sst that We are so under

lnhuentla class. We can therefore af-
ford tH psTmit the covert sneers and
sneS.king inueudoes Of the SmalIweeds
OF the press to pass. A discerning and
intelligent public viii rate them as we
Do, and treat them with The CONTEMPT
they deserve. A paper that has
Influence among the communi-
ty for whose benefit it is
published, the Austin Miss Cot-
tom Plant, published a series Of serious
and grossly offensive charges against a
branch Of our trade, by far the most i'm
portant branch, lying as it does at the
basis and foundation Of all our trade.
Published so cOnspicuously and worded
aimost psssionately, the charges reit-
Grated and repeated, the Memphis edi-

publish, and so direct the public atten-

owing To the unsettled state OF feeling grow

effort now being made to compromise the
matter not succeed, most serious fighting is
