completed his fiftieth year, and is mature in
Judgment and in the zenith of mental and
moral strength. he bears name bright with
well deserved honors. He is broad-minded,
large-hearted, honest, generous, true and
chilvalric, noble sample of the notlest class
of his countrymen, man of whom the whole
South may be proud. His term of service az
Representative would not be shortened by
his promotion to the Senate where his work
would begin Immediately after the termina-
ton Of the Forty Fourth Congress.
After four years experience in the Lower
House, with the esteem and confidence of
the South and of the whole body of the
Democratic party everywhere, his sagacity,
his great personal influence, his talents, his
high character and his eloquence, would
make him at once conspicuous if not a
leading Senator. Acting from the magnani-
nous and patriotic sentiments expressed in
his eloquent address before the late caucus of
Democratic members of Congress-, he would
reflect honor upon Mississippi, upon Geor-
gia, his native State, and upon the whole
South.

Of most prominent among whom is Col La

During this week the retail business gener-
ally has been quite lively. though some mer-
chants in that line complain that their sales
show falling of in comparison with those Of
the holidays of previous years. Most depart
ments of the wholesale trade have shown but
little animation, which is always the case
during Christmas week. Our great staples,
cotton and sugar, have poured into our city in
great quantities and met with ready sales.
Our merchants are confidently looking for
ward to greatly improved condition OF trade
next month. The low wafer in the Red and
Ouachita rivers has for two months past cut
Ms of-almost entirely-from business COM
munication with the rich aud productive
country through which they run. Within a
few days these rivers have been swollen by
rains, navigation has been rsopened, and q
fleet of boats have left here to bring down the
thousands of bales of cotton which have been
kept away from our market by low water.
This will give great impetus to the trade
OF our city. and restore spirit and confidence
10 our people.

GRANTIsM.
forests.

President Grants denomination depends on
quite different set of influences from those
which would contribute to his reelection.
His great point is to get nominated, and
if his nomination can be accomplished no.
body doubts that the whole Republican party
will do its best to elect him. The vital point
is the nomination. If Gen. Grant fails to
secure majority of the delegates IN the
Republican National Convention the third
tics; but if the National Convention
dominates him the whole Republican
party will be pledged to his support, and will
make vigorous fight under the third term
banner with the religious question as the
main issue Of the canvass. For the present
it is idle to look beyond the nomination. If
President Grant secures the nomination the
Republican party of the country will be
forced to stand by him and share his fortune.
1t cannot repudiate the nomination OF its own
National Convention, and ii President Grant
is strong enough to secure that he will have a
very good start in the race.-N. I. Herald.
The Herald assumes that in the convention
Grant will get the votes of many States
whose electoral votes will be given to the
Democratic candidate, and that 1t might hap
pen that Grant will be nominated by the dele
gates from StaLeS WHICH give Eo hepuUACau
electoral votes. Grant is now working for
the nomination, and when nominated the
whole Radical party will rally to his support.
1t is evident enough that in States where the
Radicals are in hopeless minority, as in
almost all the Southern States Grant and his
supporters can easily control the selection of
delegates to the nominating convention.
Hence the Herald expresses the opinion that
on the first ballot Grant will have three times
as many votes as any other candidate
because the delegates from every State in
which the Republicans are minority will
give him their support. The religious ques-
ton will win him the Southern negroes en-
masse, and his official patronage will enable
him to virtually appoint the delegates from
every other State in which the Republicans
are minority. With the opposition to him
divided between Blaine and Bristow it will
not be difficult to get ahead of both and carry
off the prize if backed by the Methodist in
fuence throughout the country. President
Grants strong point in his control of all the
Southern delegations through the Methodist
influence over the blacks, and when he has
once achieved the Republican nomination the
whole party will do its utmost to secure his
election.
