The jackson Herald.


Col. JnO. I. Hogan and Lewis J.
Brooks commenced the publication of
tri-weekly paper in this city last
Tuesday, under the above title. The
first and second numbers are before
US, and are exceedingly well gotten
up, both in editorial and mechanical
departments. Col. Hoganis a gentle
man of editorial experience, of varied
and versatile talents, and enters upon
his work with a full sense of its Fe-
sponsibilities. Mr.. Brooks, his asso-
ciate, has been for year past, editor
of the Lexington Reporter, and tho
without Col. Hogan's experience,
bids fair to become an ornament to
the profession. In politics, the Her
aid will be Conservative and Liberal.
In their inaugural they say: eve
stand ready, therefore to cooperate
with all those who seek to Danish
thieves from Office, and to give to
every State the rulers of its choice.
To effect this result we are willing,
for the present to pretermit all other
differences, and to act in common
with all true men, no matter from
whence they come, in what party or
CARNATIONS their regulations were
made, or in what army they may
have fought. If they are with us
now, we do not care who they were
with ten years ago, or who they may
be with ten years from to-day"
We wish the Herald success.

MIssIssIPPI.-The radical State
convention of Miss, in Convention
at Jackson last week, nominated
Gen. Adelbert Ames as a candidate
for Governor, a Mr.. Davis, colored,
for Lieutenant Governor, W. 81.
Gibbs, for Auditor of Public Ac-
counts, Geo. 4. Harris, for Attor-
ney General, and T. W. CORDOBA,
colored, for Superintendent of Edu-
cation. They adopted a platform,
succinctly as follows: "The preser,
walton of the union; strict enforce.
ment of law; equal rights and priv
ileges to all; universal education;
retrenchment, rigid economy, aud
equal and uniform taxation; oppo-
sition to monoPolies at the expense
of the masses; honesty, capacity and
fidelity the test of political prefer
ment; opposed TO burdening the re-
constructed State with the Union
and Planters Bank bonds repudia-
ted more than thirty years ago; op-
posed to loaning to railroads or 9TH
er corporations, the funds donated
byCongress to the State for eduea-
tional purposes; biennial sessions OF
the Legislature; recognize the equal
ity of all the children of ths State
to privileges, and the acceptance OF
all sGch to public schools, colleges
or universities.

Acorn and Mississippi.

There is every prospect for a beau
tiful fight between AlcOrn and
Ames in Mississippi, for Governor
and the ascendancy. Ames is
the unanimous nominee of the radi
calls of Mississippi, for Governor
he is the sOn-in-law of Beast But
ler-and was, by military power,
the military Governor of Mississip
pi, until he elected himself to the
U. 8. Senate. Since then, until very
recently, We believe he has not even
been in the State of Mississippi
He comes now, is nominated for
Governor, over all opposition, and
will use it, if elected, to place him
self again in the U. S. Senate, for
six years.
