But this was before cur day, in which there
are too many recorded instances OF subsi-
dized voters. We do not look upon offers
to buy votes now, as in former times; aud
we do not know who may have to vote on
this question in the future, therefore, say
look to your legislature.
Again, this question viii come before
Judges to be appointed BY your incoming
Governor and confirmed BY your senate.
j may ufford very convenient plea to tho
Governor, that the question is one for the
Judiciary, with osa decisions he connot
interierei and it may be very convenient
for Judge 70 say that the maxim stare
decisis, binds himi then the decision Of the
johnson case stares him in the face, and
iud ment for all the bonds may follow this
precedent. So. say, look to your new
Judges and to the Senate, that will pass
upon their nominations.
Lastly, for the present, there are more
ways than one in which Mississippi may be
made TO pay this debt. It's no news to
say that the assumption Of the State debts,
10 some form, is favorite proposition with
many eminent men. II has been started
BY Governor Walker, Of Virginia, elected
as Republican, but lately blatant Demo.

quarters that Gen. Batter, Republican, il

for the next Congress. which viii, present q
tempting bait to Southern Senators aud
Representatives, in consideration Of the
money distress prevailing all over tho
South. Your next Legislature must elect
q successor to the Hon. Mr.. Ames, who, Ia
all probability, may have to vote 'ou this
question.
Are you prepared to follow Mr.. Walker,
or General Butler, or the great Democrat,
Hunter, soon to be elected, it is thought,
from Vireiniu, to the United States Senate
Will you be taxed TO pay, as a member Of
the unioni not the repu,lnted debt Of Mis-
sissippi only, but the debis Of all the
States, said to amount in the aggregate, to
about $27,OOO,OOOi
We want Republican, not doubtful on
this subject, who has something here 10 be

want an Executive Committee to nominate
him either.
Look well to your next Legislature,

Recent Elections at the south


In glancing over the Southern political
field the signs are hopeful beyond any which
have appeared since the era Of reconstruc-
tion set in. Georgia, Tennessee and North
Carolina may be set down as permanently
conservative beyond any peradvvnture The
election to take place in Texas, December
2, will witness complete and ultimate
overthrow Of the last vestige Of Radicalism
in the Lone Star empire. The elections
which occurred two weeks ago in other
Southern States have resulted with but one
exception in conservative tIiumphs. Mary
land, which gave Greeley 925 majority on y
in p II Of $4,000, now gives cnnserya
tive majority Of 10000 in poll Of 80 900.
Virginia anchors herself to conservatism by
nearly 10000 majority, after casting her
vote for Grant last year. The two special
elections for Senators 10 Alabama have
seated intelligent Conservatives in the va
cant chairs Of Radicals, changing Radical
majority Of several thousands in negro dis.
tricts to a Conservative majority Of nearly
thousand, change in itself almost suf,
fcient to redeem The State upon the basis
Of the Radical majority Of last year. In
Arkansas we are cheered with a similar
good outlook. In that State the special
elections to fill vacancies 10 the Legislature
-nlne Senators and four Representative
seem TO have reversed the mGjorities Of last
year, and instead Of q Republican majority
Of 80 on joint ballot there is now an opposi-
tion majority Of ~.
Everywhere, except in Mississippi and
South Carolina the Conservative cause is
triumphant. OF course South Carolina is
10 hopeless condition, but the people Of
Mississippi need not despair. The recent
contest between Ames aud Alcorn was no
test of the determination of the people.
Between two such tickets there was little
choice, and the people let the election go
by default. The victory achieved by the
true people Of Mississippi in 1863 can be
achieved again. The Frightening political
prospects Of her sister Suites, from the Po-
tomac to the Rio Grande, must encourage
the people Of Louisiana TO persevere in their
determination TO assert the rights which an
INSCRIPTIONS enemy have sought 10 trample
under foot. Let there be no compromise
with injustice and oppression. The
road to ultimate victory is the plain path
Of dignity and principle.

rattenIng Hogs.

It will now be time for putting up hogs
for fattening, and the quicker they are Ct to
kill the more will be the profit. Before the
weather gets excessively severe it wllrtquire
less feed to get them up to the proper weight
If left till the seyc e cad sets iG they will
have to be supplied with rutions sufficient
not only TO enable them to progress with
the fattening proce s, but also with an ex-
cess offOod TO keep up animal heat. There.
fore, those who may be % situated as to
enable them to accomplish il should com
mence feeding forthwith. First AID lore
most, procure for them and mix in their slops
hJur Of sulphur, a teaspoonful for each, and
give it two or three times a week fr Two
or three weeks. Afterwards give them a
handful OF powdered charcoal every few days
or mixture Of ashes and salt. These CON
diments act as regulators Of the bowels, and
puts them in condition afterwards to do
their work of fntteniag with great zest.
Soft food, such as roots. apples, pumpkins,
sqnashes, should first be given, and il
cooked, and have added to them meal and
bran, the more readily they will faiten.
Soft corn, as husked ont, may then be added
to their messes. Although we cannot hope
to induce many to attend to the process Of
cooking. still we have reason to believe that
even 10 supplying nnground corn in this
condition will result IN saving Of q fourth
OF the food requisite.

Too Much Cotton.

When the present depression passes
away, and the losses incurred by low prices
have been temporarily met, by going deeper
into debt, we fear that our planters will
be convinced oGthe folly Of sacrificing every
thing else in order to make large crop Of
cotton. Surely the present ruinuus prices
should deter every sensible man from q
policy which, il persisted in, must bankrupt
our people. The receipts from the sale Of
the present crop will not pay our planters
out Of debt-those Of them who planted on
a credit. This-is most unf rtunate con
diti0n Of Affairs, but our people areto blame
for it themselves 10 great measure. They
borrow money at exorbitant rates Of inter
est to raise from three to four millon baieG
Of Gotten, and are compelled by their nee
essities aud large cop TO sell out beIuw
the cost Of production. The credit system,
which has enabled our planters TO become
extravagant in their expensive ideas Of cot
ton planting has eliminated 10 bringing
this section iutu an unfortunate condition.
Had our people raised their own prOv,s'
ions and planted less cotton. the south
would be independent Of the North and
West. and the present financial panic which
has DISTURBED and parayzpd the business Of
the country, would not have affected our
people so seriously. But there is nothing
for as now but 20 grin and bear it, and meet
the consequences nanfulIy. We have it 10
our power to do better il We are wise, and
the experience Of this year should convince
US that we cannot live on cotton Allne. We
want more bread and less cotton. There
can be no real, permanent prosperity in any
country where the prime necessities Of life
are not produced. With all the advantages
Of genial climate and productive soil, the
South should not only raise cotton, but
provisions 10 abundance to meet eve y home
want. Two million Ave bundled thousand
or three million bales Of cotton at twenty
ceats pound, and plenty Of supplies for
plantation wants, win be far more profitable
than four million bales at the present rnin-
GUS prices. Our people are convinced ot
this. and yet they 60 on fiom year to year,
striving and straining to put every acre in
cotton. with the pc Of q short crop and
high prices. The press does its duty, and
begs and pleads With the planters to make
provisions the first consideration, and cot
ton the next. This has been our advice for
years. But our precepts have not pro-
duced many noted examples.
