The Re-aPPoin1men1 Of q. WfIev
Wells

Some weeks ago we heard from au-
thentic sources that an exciting contest
was in progress over the denomination Of
Col. G. Wiley Wells, to the office Of
U. ). District Attorney for the Northern
District of Mississippi. He was opposed
on the one hand, by Gov. Ames, and
Representative Howe, and recommended
Ex-senator Alcorn, and Representative Nc
kee on the other; and as these influences
were understood to have been arraved
against each other, public curiosity has
been no little excited as to the probable
result of the contest. The news Is that
Wells, has been re-nominated, and AJcorn
and Mckee, therefore, have won the
spurs. Their efforts were seconded.
however, by testimonials of Wells ability
and fitness, and his orthodoxy as Re-
publican. The defeat of Gov. Ames in
this contest, his failure to effect change
In the Post Office at Grenada, and the loss
which he is reputed to have sustained in |
the re noval of some of his favorites from |
higher places, have created the impression |
that he is losing his influence at court.

Conventions Of the Indiana and ILL
nois farlpers, and other Industrial repre-
sentatives, have effectually settled the
mooted question as TO public sentiment
in the West on the Currency question.
They both, and especially the former,
passed resolutions repudiating contrac-
ton and in favor Of enlarging the cireu-
lating medium. They proclaimed def
ance to the Bank monopoly and the
power of the untaxed money rings of the
East. The St Louis Republican, an
anti-expansion journal, decidedly friepi-
Iy 10 the Independent movement, CON
strues ''their Currency Platform as
Imitation of the widest sort. In short
q (says the Republican, it i the Pendle-
q ton project of 1868 with some features
which even that project did not
possess" K x :
" The fact that the money question Is the
. only national subject mentioned in the
platform, proves how important a part
" it Is about to play in the canvass OF this
year, but it proves also the narrowness
of view and he.unpreparedness for action
Z" of the Indiana Independents. The
Cincinnati Enquirer, (Democratic) as
suming that the Pendleton-Greenback
doctrine, is the pure Democratic doctrine
says that these independents on the
Currency have placed themselves ire
* vocably with the Democratic party >
a conclusion at which the swollaw tail
and kid glove Democrats Of Manhattan
Club would stand aghast-
The truth is this declaration isnot to be
taken as an expression Of the faith Of
either Of the old parties. Both are di-
vided on the Currency question as shown
by their Congressional records, and the
Independents have been drawn together
from both by union Of sentiment on
this and other questions. A writer in
giving description Of the personnel of
the Convention says g that out Of three
hundred men lhefe were not teH "uoH
the oldest politicians had ever seen in a
similar gathering before They were
utterly unknown They had come up
here out of obscure by-ways and bridle-
path as it were, strange faces and unfa-
iliar forms, bearing unknown names, and
talking strangely of strange purposes.
They went out to the Exposition Hall, anG
gathered in the front benches of the great
auditorium, while an audience of poll
ticians assembled on the outskirts curious
to see what they would do"

Defeat of the Con ference Curren-
cy Esili.

A financial bill reported by a confer
ence committee, which had passed the
Senate was defeated by large majority
in the House on the 18th. 1t was defeat
ed by the joint votes of contractionists and
expansionists, to neither of whom was
the measure acceptable. Correspondents
Of the Western Press say that "the Dem
" ocrats resisted it because it strengthen
d" ed the National BaaI~, and the Re
&" publican infationists, because it retired
" greenbacks aud Is not an expansion
g measure. According to their showing,
" one of the moderate expansion mem
g bers stated that he and those voting
90 with him believed the measure would
6 contract, and that severely, by offer
:" ing a premium for the boarding of
" greenbacks; as they were 10 be re-
=" deemed after January, 1873, in gold
g bond at par, and probably above, it
g would be profitable to withdraw them
=" from circulation"
The Republican managers who have
made every effort 10 settle this disturb
ing issue are sadly disappointed. The
conflict between the Western and South
ern producing classes and the Eastern
bondholders and money barons, is not
to be repressed until the cause is sub
mitted to the decision of the people at
the polls. The difference is hot to be
reconciled by the palliating expedients
of political quacks. The question
will override all others and will become
the pivot on which the approaching Con-
gressional elections in both sections will
turn. The interests OF the South are
all with the West We are united to
her by irradicabla geographical lines;
and on this question of increasing the
circulating medium correspondingly with
the necessities of the producing clas-
ses. the West aud South are doubly
linked.

The Mystery ExpIai.sed

Last February, Mr.. Clinton F. Rice
quiet, unobtrusive stranger, somewhat
mysteriously appeared in our midst, with
look of Cuisines" about him, and il
was soon known to favored few who
held their peace, that he came from
Washington on mission of inquiry from
the authorities into abuses which it was
alleged had been perpetrated in GER
tain federal offices Of this State 1t was
rumored that our vigilant Representative
Gen. Mckee, had obtained their ear,
and had given intimation that things
might not be all right, and that an in
vestigation would be in order. His
suggestion was acted upon, and the Sc
que is seen in the reports, which are
rife, that changes are to be made in the
offices of U. S. Marshal and District
Attorney for the Southern District of
Mississippi. The U. S. Marshal is said
to have visited Washington on pressing
business, and sundry persons are apply
ing for places which dame rumor insists
will soon be vacant. More anon.

The Cotton Convention of Cotton
EXcliungcs.

This important convention met at Au-
gusta, Ga, on the llth inst ON lhe
first day Of the convention, the propo-I.
ton for permanent organization to b,
known as the the National Cotton cN-
change was resolved upon, adopting ns 90
basis of representation that each cotton
exchange handling 25, 600 bales OF moro
be entitled 10 two delegates in the nation
al board, and those exchanges handling
more than 100, 900 bales be entitled Co
an additional delegate for each hundred
thousand Of additional receipts.
The recommendation was adopted that
the several cotton exchange South
should furnish their correspondents in
the country with a uniform series cot
interrogatories to planters on the first 0i
November Of each year, and that their
returns should be mailed not later than
the 18th of each month That ther.
shall be a central exchange, and that its
location shall be in New Orleans, and the
local exchanges shall send TO IL comp Iad
averages OF answers, and that this cuu-
tral exchange shall issue general crop
report framed from these returns undor
the supervision OF the committee ou in-
formation in statistics.
The suggestion Of the Galveston cS-
change to the New York exchange. that
producers Of cotton should exercise great
er care in gathering and handling thc
staple so as to prevent any deterioration
Of grade by careless intermixturc and
eXtraneous substance, was adopted.
The recommendation for the adoption
Of a uniform classification of cotton
throughout the United States, 90 bD
called the Standard American Clus-ifca-
ton, was adopted. The several cotton
exchanges will accordingly appoint est
perts 10 make these classificutiOu- and
they will accordingly meet for this pur.
pose in New York next September. OH
cial quotations will be based on the type
thus established.
The foregoing was certainly an impor
tant assemblage, whose proceeding poi
sess special interest to the cotton pr2du
Ger and to all persons concerned in the
trade. Accurate statistics of the acreage
and reports Of the prospect Of The crop
during the process OF production, arc
extremely desirable The importance of
careful handling and improved qualities
Of the staple cannot be overeshmated
Let planters bear IN mind that inferior
grades are always drug, and that good
qualities are ever in demand at remuucr-
ative prices.

Hon. L.'Q. G. Lamar ON the Mis-
rule Of ahe south.

Col. Lamar delivered speech In the
House of Representatives on the th inst,
to which from all the reports an attentive
ear was held 1t was listened to by both
parties in the House with rapt attentions;
and it has been received with ike respect
by the public of both sections. lis
speech on Sumner had prepared the mind
Of the country to hear what more he Lad
to say, and he has improved the opportu-
nitv which his marvellous tact and inspir-
ing eloquence had won for him. The
occasion of this last speech was the con-
tested election case of Sheridan and
Pinchback from Louisiana. From a
clear presentation of the facts and the law
in this case, our Representative logically
glided into a general discussion of the
Southern situation. Says the correspon-
dent of the St Louis Times, che dis
" cussed in a broad and philosophic spirit
" and vein of singular eloquence, the
+" relations of the Southern people to the
q Government, and the manner IN which
Z" they had been treated by the dominant
g party since the war. The injustice and
&" cruelty of this policy, and the rapacity
q and extortion Of the carpet-bag govern
g with an earnestness, force and convin-
' cling power that went nome to the House
E" and to the hearts and consciences of all
q his listeners This is the first time since
g the ,car that the case Of the South has been
" adequately and fuHypresented by one other
1" o,Un sons, and 1t 1cas done to-day IN q
g style to ,ohich eUen Northern Republicans
@ could take no ereeption Mr.. Lamars
< time was extended, by general consent,
< and after speaking nearly two hours he
" gave way from physical exhaustion,
=" having made what many deem the
" ablest and most statesmanlike speech
q of the session. Nearly the whole house
gathered around him at the close. .
A correspondent Of the n. Y. Herald,
describing the occasion, says " Lamar's
q speech attracted general attention for
q its earnestness and its allusions to the
g civil war and its results. He was pc
" culiarly happy in accepting the political
g situation made for the South by the
" amendment to the Constitution. His
=" exordium and peroration were alike
&C characterized by pithv and pertinent
" illustrations.
In our next impression, we shall hope
to present full report of the speech Of
Col Lamar, i'll whose successful Congress
sional career, the entire conservative
(we do not use the term in partizan
sense) population of his State, nay of the
South, feel prid no less just than sim
cere.

w, Q. LOUD, Secretary.

1t seems impossible for Hon Jefferson
Davis, no matter where he may be, non
how unobtrusive his walk, to escape vii
lifcation. For example, the following
from the New York World:
''It is announced that Mr. Jefferson
Davis is on his way home from Europe.
| He does not come a day too soon. A
London financial journal informs US that
! Mr.. Davis came before the council of
/ foreign bondholders recently in London,
and made speech to that body in which
| he defended his own course in regard to
the repudiated debt of Mississippi in a
| style and with arguments which effectu-
ally determined his hearers to have ''as
| little as possible to do with the securities
of that portion of the United States"
Nothing, we are glad to say, could be
more unjust to the Mississippi of to-day
But nothing also, we are sorry to say,
could be more characteristic of Mr.. JEFF
ferson Davis"
This is the first notice we have seen of
Mr.. Davis appearance before "'the Coun-
q ell of foreign bondholders in London
If Mr.. Davis acted any part at ALL which
we question, it was doubtless to explain,
by invitation of the parties concerned, the
grounds of the decision of his State on
what is called the ''repudiated debt" Her
decision was founded upon Impregnable
moral and legal grounds. Doubtless his
own agency in the matter did not enter
into his argument For in truth he acted
a very small and irresponsible part, if
any, in the contest over the Bond question.
The leading champions of Reputation,
-as the cause of thosewho urged the people
to refuse to be held responsible for debt
which they never contracted and which
was created in violation of their organic
law, was called-were Men utt, Hagan,
Freeman, Tucker, Brown and others of
less note. Jefferson Davis had not en-
tered the political arena The battle was
fought and the decision rendered before
hewas called to public life, and it only re-
manned for him to vindicate the action of
his people when it was misrepresented
and assailed after his entrance into the
political arena.
: The intimation of the Bour bon paper
that the Mississippi of other days would
suffer by companion with the ''Mississip-
piof to-day"-needs no comment.

A telegram from Council Bluffs, Iowa,
says that on Friday morning last, as an
extra stock train on the Red Oak branch
of the Burlington and Mississippi rail
way was nearing Farragut, Jack Evans,
the engineer, discovered a small child on
the track, about sixty yards distant.
The engine was reversed and the brakes
applied, but the engineer knew that the
train could not be stopped in time to save
the child. Evans ran out upon the cow
catcher, and when the train had reached
within about ten feet Of the child, he
made flying leap, caught the child in
his arms, and both rolled into the ditch
in time to escape the train, which was
running at fifteen miles an hour. The
child, one year old, was uninjured. The
engineer sprained his ankle and was con-
siderably bruised, but not seriously in
jured.
