THE VICKsBURGER is luxuriating in
the compliments of the press and the
honors and emoluments of its new honOrs
as official Printer of the city whose name
it bears. 1t was established as white
line paper and has stood its ground with
zeal and consistency. Watching
its opportunity, it reported and seized
hold of Wash. Davenport's wicked and
foolish TRADE and used it to fire the
hearts of the whites with the same relish
that radical-republican appropriates the
killing of "a niger" "Union man.
or any other imputed act of Southern
violence; and with equal effect. The
sense of victory which our youthful CO.
temporary realises in the recognition of
its services, is natural Indeed it is just,
for though all parties have quoted with
derision the celebrated sentiment of
VIM. L. Marcy, that Ito the victors be-
long the spoiis"-they have I'll prac-
tised it.

MONTGOMERY, Sept. 2S.-One faction
of the Republican party held a meeting
at Wilson's Station; another faction tried
to break up the meeting. While g. w.
Cox, negro, was speaking, there were
cries of pull him down, and a rush was
made for the stand. A pistol shot was
fired, and of the assailing party, a
negro fell dead.
The mob then tried to lynch Cox, but
Wilson, white man, got him in his store,
bolted the door, and after a strong effort
persuaded the mob to let the law take its
course. Cox was taken to Jail.

We are indebted to Capt. L. S. Hardee,
the well-known civIl-engineer, for a
copy of his map, representing the seat
of war in the recent conflict between the
citizens and the Kellogg Metropolitan
police force in the city of New Orleans.
The map is elegantly executed and
presents at a glance full view Of that
memorable affair. 1t is accom- panied by
an account of the immediate causes of the
revolution and concise recital of the
details of the battle and movements of
troops, together with the names of the
killed and wounded on the side Of the
citizens. The work is highly creditable
to the skill and public spirit of the au-
thor.

wheels, the contents OF which can be seen
by the audience. A committee, consisting
OF three eminent citizens in no way connect
ed with the management, having first made

ing numbers on them, from 10 1900. CORE

lao square boxes, precisely alike, rs many
slips of paper, on which are printed the l40
gifts of denominations from siO to 81 ,O00-will
then place these 40 sealed boxes containing
the gifts in the smaller wheel. Both wheels
will then be turned until their contents are
thoroughly mixed. A blindfolded boy,
under Is years of age, will then draw from
the larger wheel one of the tags, and, hold
ing it up in full view of the audience, its
number will be called loud enough for all to
hear by the crier appointed for this purpose;
the tag will then be passed to committee OF
three distinguished cirzens who will say
whether the number has been rightly called.
1t will then be passedltoa registrar, who will
file it upon o copper wire prepared for the
purpose.
The number of tho tag thus drawn, cried,
proven and filed will be recorded by three
clerks, in separate books. prepared for the
purpose. f5afru m - srr HEl
A blindfolded girl OF similar age will then
draw from the smaller wheel one Of the
sealed boxes, which will be opened and the
gift taken out, unfoided and held up to the
view of the audience.
The amount of the gift thus drawn will
then be cried, recorded by the three clerks,
and the paper filed by the registrar with its
tag upon the wire. ee ffrt
The gilt thus drawn will belong to the tick
ct bearing the same number as the tag
drawn Immediately before 1t. Thus this pro-
cess will continue until l40 numbers are
drawn from the larger wheel and all the
boxes from the small wheel. And the 40
gifts thus drawn, ranging from $40 to 81 ,0J0,
will be paid to the parties who present the
tickets having numbers thus determined by
lot to be entitled them.
After the drawing is over, the large wheel
containing the tags win be placed in the
hands of committee chosen by the audi
ence, who can examine for Themselves and
see whether all the tickets sold wore repre-
scented by tags with corresponding numbers.

Johnson was one of the chief orna-
mcnts Of society, and was noted for her

which can demand the return of citizens
from Austrian or Spanish prisons, has no
power to protect its citizens upon its own
soil, is a proposition that most people will
reject.
The time will come when the South will
join with the rest Of the nation in the
march of progress, and every martyr who
falls in Louisiana or Texas is only helping
to make Southern civilization possible
Though the men who plunged the nation
into war before, may labor to do SO again,
it will be vain, they cannot check the adj
vance of a purer civilization. Though
Dostie or Kellogg may fall, others will take
their places, until Louisiana becomes what
it should. The destruction of Southern
ruffianism cannot be far away, for case
of more incurable folly is not to be found
in history.

imposors initiate and copy the language in which the
medical properties of Hosteters Stomach Bitters

ants destroy the tone of the digestive organs and
the bowels and rob the system of its vital strength
they unscrupulousy recommended to the weak and

comparatively inert if they not to speak, car
red the localities where they required by the
the use of pure alcoholic fluid when employed as
of giving full effect to medicinal extracts OF the
