SUSPENSION OF THE oRHANs' HOME
A Card from the Executive Com"
miGGee.

From the Orphans Home Banner.
The Executive Committee of the
Board OF Trustees Of the Orphans Home
are under the painful necessity OF an
nouncing to the public the suspension OF
that noble institution, and the dispersion
of It's helpless inmates wherever they
can get homes.
The institution is without money, with
out supplies, without credit; and IN this
condition no other alternative Is left US
This is the saddest duty we have ever
been called on to perform IN connection
with this Institution. We hold the SUI
perlntendent and his subordinates blame
less in this matter. 1t was no fault OF
theirs. A more devoted and seltsacrl-
icing set of individuals can scarcely be
found anywhere, and especially do We
desire to attest the integrity, efficiency
and energy of the superintendent, 4. \.
Hall.
But his appeals and our appeals to
the public, and especially to the Bap-
fist denomination, who are the chartered
owners OF the Home, were Intellectual,
and the contributions for the past sixty
DAYS have been almost nothing and
with an old Indebtedness hanging over
it its credit was destroyed and We driven
to the sad alternative of suspend;ng.
We ask the creditors to be patient.
The assets are abundantly sufficient to
pay all Indebtedness if properly managed,
but if suit be brought it will necessitate
putting the corporation into bankruptcy,
and in that event it would not pay out
In the mean time We assure the creditors,
that the property shall be preserved and
no preference given to any creditor, but
all shall share alike.
In the meantime, there are twenty-five
or thirty little children not yet provided
with homes, and it may be several weeks
before they can be, and we appeal to the
public in behalf of these to send contri-
buttons Of food for them that they may
not go away hungry.
The Home has performed its mission.
1t raised and educated hundreds of or
phans of Confederate soldiers, and with
that the people lost interest in it; and
while we fondly hoped it would be per-
petuated as living memorial of the he
roism and patriotism of our gallant dead,
and as a home for the homeless, yet we
do notreproach any one, though no doubt
if the whole people of Mississippi could
see the anguish wrung from the hearts of
these children, their tears, their signs,
their parting embraces, as day by day
they leave, we doubt not there would be
thousands who would indulge in selfre-
proaches deep and lasting. But we feel
we have done our duty, and to God and
the public we commend them.
The superintendent will remain in
charge of the property, and such of the
children as can't get homes, and We beg
the people in the name of humanity, send
of supplies sufficient to feed them until
the Baptist State Convention meets in
July, when the property will be dis
posed of in some way, and the debts paid,
or it may be, some plan will be devised
to resume and continue the institution.

Odd Fellows Celebration AT Gin
tom.

Mr. EDITOR: Clinton was made alive
last Monday with the celebration OF the
Annual Anniversary of the establishment
of the independent Order of Odd Fellows
i'm the United States. To make the occasion
one of general interest, the Masons, the
Changers. the Sabbath school and the stu
dents of the two Literary Institutions OF
Clinton, were all invited to take part with
the Odd Fellows. The Sabbath school an
ticipated the first of May few days by
browning the beautiful little Miss Laura
Banks, as Queen upon the occasion.
The address in behalf of the Sabbath
School was made by MIR. Waddy d. Rice,
good speaker and estlmable young gentle
man. The address to the Queen was made
in most graceful style and eloquent words
by Miss Alice Williams, while Miss Lucy
Banks presented the sceptre, The queen
responded in appropriate words, receiving
the homage of her subjects, conhdlng TO
each their respective duties and charges.
The opening prayer was made by Mr. l. y.
Roam, one of the students of the Male Col
lepe. The ceremonies ofcrowning the Queen
being over, another prayer was offered OF
Rev. Mr.. Venable, when Judge Cabaniss IN
troduced Oliver Clifton, Esq, OF JACKSON
as the Orator of the day, who deliySfed
most chaste and instruc tive address
on Odd ellowship-aprostrophiz first
TO the Queen of May, then to the Gran"
GERS and Sabbath School. The speaker was
REGULARLY relicitous in all lie said through
out. and made fine impression, very many
| present expressing themselves fortunate TO
have heard HIM. His manly acknowledge e
ment of his allegiance to the cross and his
attachment to the Sabbath School will long
be remembered. Speaking over, all ha nds
repaired TO the dinner tables, where great
abundance was found of the best the eoun-
trv affords, to satisfy the taste of the veriest
epieure: suffice it to say, the people OF Clin-
ton know how to get up good barbecue.
| Riyinac's jackson Cornet Band diseoursed
excellent m usic at intervals throughout the
dav. and gave parting salute to the young
| ladies of Prof. Hillman's fine School, some
of the boys leaving their hearts in the care
Of the pretty girls of the school.
In the evening many of the ladies and
gentlemen of Clinton and the surrounding
| country visited the cemetery, strewing
flowers over the graves of the gallant "boys
| in gray" who laid down their lives for their
| country and are laid in Clinton cemetery
until the resurrection MORN To many OF
| the hospitable citizens ofClinton the writer
