THE POLITICAL EsiNDVrEI OF I3U-
ISfiNt.

The New York Sun, in commenting
on the composition and acts Of the late
Radical Convention, held at the st.
Louis Hotel, ana in reviewing the
status of fairs i'll tho State generally.
makes the following savage com
mcnts:
Why, this very man kellogg is no
more the legal Governor thur. than he
is of New York. F"ierhuul and perjury
are upon his pretended credentials, and
hypothetical ballots and t;,brir:,trd
footin2s of the returns are the title deeds
to his Office. lie has the same color oS
claim to the Governorsl,ip as the thief
to his stolen goods. 1t is y minor usur-
patton, sustained by the crShadoWing
laWle>5sncs5 OF the President a:ld BY Il
suborncd judiciary, which flashes
decisions in the t"Tinili;n@ of..n eye und
eXtcnporiscs constitutional law by

In what terms OF scorn shall We speak
of such cant RS this ia a cU!lcl;tVc OF

for the collection and levy of the taxes
to pay these bonds, however Ubiquitous
and oppressive the taxes may be! We!
had hoped, that inasnuch as the Exc
cutive and Legislative departments
had sunk into wrong, and had trampled
under foot the rights of the people, that,
at least, the last anchor of safety, the
Judiciary department, would not be
throttled, gagged and made subservicnt
to the will of class of men who have
f,ttened on the tears and miseries of Il
down-trodden people. One of the prin-
ciplcs in the famous Bill of Rights Of
the English, is that Justice shall not be
declared, and even in the Constitution of
1865, it is announced to the world, that
call courts shall be open, and every
person, for injury done him in his land,
goods, person or reputation, shall have
adequate remedy by due process Of law,
and justice administered without denial
or unreasonable delay.'-Article 10.
But if Amendment No. 1 be ratified,
it will be equally as potent as Article
10, and equally AS biniing on the Judi
ciary ON the suhject-matter of the
legislation which it endorses. Sweep
away the Judiciary, and society resol-
YES it into first principles, when it then
becomes necessary to re-organize itself
through the fire and blood of a rcvolu-
ton. There is something deplorable in
these two provisions. In the name OF
hnnanitv-in tho name Of itlStipe let
the people vote down this Amendment,
because beneath all the good that
appears on the surface, there turks the
power that will, unless checked, des-
troy the liberties Of the people, under
nounced through a subservient
judiciary. SIPIIAN.

Ask ed by the TELEGRAPH to furnish
proof OF the charge made by the Intel
igencer that .ssome ofthe White League
papers declare boldly and plainly that
white Republicans shall not be permit
ted to organaze colorcd clubs for this
political campaign" that paper responds
with quotation of nine lines from the
Mansfield Reporter, It's the "paragraph"
in question. In our neighbours vocabu-
larry s'some," therefore, means one, and
because the Mansfield Reporter dcclar-
ed in July that, "the White Mans
party guarantees the negro all of the
rights" but "they do not intend that
white carpet-baggers and reuegades
shall be permitted to organize and pre-
pare the negroes for the coming cam
paign," there is, therefore, an end to
the organization of colored clubs in this
State by white Republicans! 1t is
hardly necessary to say that we are
perfectly satisfied with our neighbor's
proof.

Abolishing Customhouses.

following Congressional Information
Mr. Grassland, Of Kentucky, in

the abolition Of Customhouses in all

not of sufficient amount to meet the
expenses of the office, and discharg

in service in such Customhouscs.
While Mr.. Grassland is engaged

his attention TO Vicksburg. For

ing a salary to an idle dalkey or an
impccunious carpet Dagger, just for

as a consideration, is one of the
things, that, according TO Lord Dun
dreory, " no fellow can find out"
We congratulate Mr.. Grassland,
and beg him to include the Heroic
City in his sw eping attempt to
abolish useless Customhouses-

FERsoNAL.-We were pleased Il
meet within the last few days Hon
George Hannahs of Michigan, oil
the firm of Wright, Hannahs & Co.
engaged in lumber manufacturing al
this place.
Dir. Hannahs has recently visited
Washington and is sarglinc that
Congress will make the %appropria-
ton this session, for cur harbor and
u locality and State are much in
debted to him for his exertions in
behalf Of this measure.
Asa snug haven, our bay excited
the surprise of Mr.. Hannahs, on a
visit he paid to our shipping, where
lie found SO little sea although a stiff
south east wind had prevailed for at
least forty eight hours, blowing di~
rectly from the Gulf through the
pass. On the lakes around his State,
lie said, such a continued wind would
have raised q tremendous sea.
He is much interested in our place
and what is being done for this To-
cality +; is familiar with what cngin-
eering skill aud congressional appro-
priations have done for the ports on
the great lakes and is satisfied that
~Pascagoula possesses great natural
advantages, and is destined to be-
come a port Of much commercial i'm
%portance.
1t would be much TO the benefit of
our State, if many such persons, as
the ger lle,ncn who compose this firm,
would settle or invest among ur, and
to such, our people are ever ready to
OK tcnd a hearty welcome.

From the Dauville I'm News, (Rep.)

The strength of the Republican
party lies now wholly in the good it
has done, and not in the good it is
now doing. 1t has welded more in
huence over the minds OF the masses
of the people for the last eight years,
by crying, wolf, wolf, the Confederate
wolf, than through any private virtue
in itself. y Not one of the
four publishers of the Danville News
ever voted a Democratic ticket, ccr-
tlinly not in many years not n of
them voted the Liberal tickle! ia 1872
and not one Of them will ever again
vote the Republican ticket unless it
offers something better than it has
offered for a year asst.
Yesl wolf, wolf. the Confederate
wolf, is the horrible bugaboo with
which The carpet-bag nurses alright
the souls Of the gullible negroes into
quietude when they exhibit any res.
tiveness.
But cry, wolff and they luddle
like sheep; and like lambs to the
slaughter they walk up to the polls;
and yet prale about the glorious priv
iIegcs Of Frocgan.
