Gov. PoWEFs, Of Mississippi, claims
that the late election III ,n&t State was
Illegal, and he proposes to retain his
Office until the courts decide the ques-
ton. Whether the Radical party viii
permit judicial decision seems doubt
full. The 0hgJoaa Nclr8, leading
Amos organ, suggests a resort to the
higher law" Of physical force, as fol
lows
We do not see the sense or propric-
ty in suing out a. writ Of quo warranto
or any other process in law against
Powers to make him show cause why he
holds on 10 the Office Of Governor OF the
State. We are in favor Of proceeding
much more sulnmaTily than this to dis
possess him. = He has employed his

proper legislative appropriations to
carry on the State Government.

ANOTHER Job of whitewashing has
been completed. The Commission sent
out by Secretary Delano to investigate
the charges against Indian Commits
sioner Smith, Of Minnesota, closed its
labors on Wednesday last. The 81.
Pa,I Pioneer says the whole inquiry has
been a n ockeIy and farce" which
"may shut the mouth Of Congress, but
VIII open that Of the people Of this
STATE" 1t charges that the Commits
sioners were "fcasted and toasted by
the men they were to investigate. "
The Indian chiefs who were examined
said the only cause Of complaint they
had against Mr.. Smith was that Ec dis
posed Of their land without their coa-
sent.

LITERATURE.

These periodicals constitute wonderful mis-
cellany of modern thought, research and criti-
csm. The cream of all European books worth
reviewing is found here, and they treat Of the
leading events of the world in mastery articles
written by men who have special knowledge Of
the matters treated. The American Publishers
urge upon ali intelligent readers in this country
a liberal support OF the Reprints which they
have so long and So cheaply furnished, feeling
sure that no expenditure for literary matter will
yield 50 rich a return as that required for sub
scription to these the
