Another Launch.
PASCAGOULA'S SHIP YARDS.

The Schooner "Campechanc" built
by r. D. Smith at his ship-yard for
Capt. p. j. Aries was launched
to day.
She is intended we believe for the
Mexican trade, is rs feet 9 inches
keel and so feet over all, so to 80
tons, ard with a capacity of go to 10
NJ. #. She is builtof White and Live
oak, copper fastened and is beautifully
finished. She does much credit 10
Mr.. Smiths Yard and to ~Pascagoula,
and is the third vessel lately launched
here from as many different yards.
We notice this fact with pleasure, and
have no doubt but this branch of in
dustry will be increased with each
succeeding year until Pascagoula's
Shipyards will become famed for
turning out as neat, staunch, sea-
worthy vessels, at a cost as reasonable,
as can be done anywhere. And why
not? With an inexharstible supply
Of the best quality of Oak, Cypress,
Pine DC. or u rivers above, which
ean be so easily placed at the yards.
With mills at hand to furnish the
bes; quality of lumber needed. With
New Orleans and Mobile close at hand
to supply every thing needed'in the
way of cordage, sails, rigging &c.
And with yards whose owners
have bad lifelong experience /; then
why should MOI Pascagoula become
famous for her Sbipyards.

When the South was utterly exhaus
ted and about to yield to overwhelm-
ing force, the rebel authorities at
tempted to organize a corps of me-
groes to battle against the cause Of
their emancipation. Now, Captain
General Jovellar of Cuba calls upon
the slave owners to give their slaves
for military service. The coincidence
is evident. The call, like that OF the
dying Confederacy, means exhaustion
and defeat.-N. Y. Sun.

old Bachelor, as he leans back in his
comfortable arm chair, and as the
fanciiul wreaths from his pipe float
upward encircling his thoughts in
their graceful embra ce; be forgiven
for taking one hearty laugh at this or
for painting the enyiablc lie that
none can know but the blessed. What
cares are they that surround him?
What sorrows his? His actions how
free, ow untrameled his life. None
to be anxious for, Non c to be anxious
about him, none to murder his name,
or pull him about. He stands "Lord

he has but to step to his neighbour

The bill reducing The salaries Of

ton has passed the House BY q vote
of 10 to Is, to 60 into effect on the
18th March. 1t reduces the salary
OF this county from $500 to 1915.
Harrison and Hancock counties be.
ing also ut down at the latter sum.
In most counties the salaries are
reduced one fourth, in a few one-
third, in others not so much, which
in a very few, they are advanced.
Superintendent Cardoza in O letter
to the Pilot of last Saturday says:
The bill now before the LegisIa-
ture reducing the salaries Of County
superintendent is fraught with great
danger to the public school system,
No one would enter more heartily
into the word Of retrencllment aud
reform than |, when it is in the
right direction. But this effort to
reduce the salaries of County Super
intendents, if successful, will prove to
be the commencement of a series of
blows at our common school system.

A common laborer, who merely
grew up" like "Topsy," can demand
at least two dollars per day for bis
labor, or driving a scayenger cart ;
but when the same amount is offered
to a gentleman who has spent his
years ard money in preparing him
self to instruct III youth, we are
told that we must favor r%etrench-
ment and reform. Retrenchment in
educational matters is wise
and pound-foolish."
Because we may have had a few
drones as County Superintendent,
that is no reason that we shall all
ways have them.
Whenever such are pointed out to
our State Board, with sufficient proof,
the scalpel will be applied.
Must the whole State atone for a
few drones? And shall we be able
to get better Superintendents in
place of the had ones by reducing the

we must expect to get poor material.

Superintendents and teachers
