it is quicksand that il the worst kind O,

The bright promise of prospective
chancellor have been efiectually eXtin-
guished. No little surprise will be oc-
casioned by the arrest, conviction and
punishment of J. H. Piles, of Pamela
county, prominent colored carpetbag
politician and ex-member of the legis-
iature. Last fall he was the candidate
of a wing of his party for sheriff, hut
was defeated. His appointment as
chancellor of the district in which he
resides was set down as fore
gone conclusion. 1t is not to be sup
posed that his fondness for the legal
property of other lawyers will improve
his chances.-[ Mississippi Clarion.
