LOngfellOw i'm College.

A correspondent of the Chicago Jour-
nal gives an interesting sketch of the
college life of Longfellow at Bowdoin {:
Before he graduated he had written
some of his classical poems, early show
ing the bent of his genius. He was u
fine classical scholar, and in reviving old
memories while at Brunswick, he said
that o certain examination in Horace
probably gave turn to his whole life.
He had spent considerable time on one
of the hardest odes, and went into ex-
animation hoping that that ode would be
assigned him. 1t turned out to his wish,
and one of the examiners was so much
impressed with the scholarship and taste
of the young man that he urged his APP
pointment as professor of modern Ian
guages. Thus it came to pass that Mr..
Longfellow gained his first distinction as
professor in the college whose name may
be strange to half the readers Of the

The Man who Stammered.

Eli Perkins, in his new book, relates
the following stories:
Mr.. Travers, who stammers enough
to make story interesting, went into a
bird fancier's in Center street, to buy a
parrot.
"H-h-have you got a-a-all kinds of
b-b-birds?" asked Mr.. T.

fancier, politely.

hesitated Mr.. T.
"Well, here is beauty. See what
glittering plumage |"
ellis he a g-g good t-talker ?"
eff he can't talk better than you can
I'll give him to you," exclaimed the
shopkeeper.
Mr. Travers bought the parrot.
Mr.. Travers, says Jay Gould, once
went down to dog fancier's in Water
street, to buy a rat terrier.
sis she a g-g-good ratter2" asked
Travers, as he poked little, shivering
pup with his cane. ....,
"Yes, sir; splendid. I'll show you
how he'll go for rat" said the dog fan
cier-and then he put him in box with
a big rat.
GLOW did it turn out9" I asked Mr..
Gould.
"Why, the rat made one dive and laid
out the frightened terrier in a second,
but Travers turned around, and says he

EDS. CLARION: There was a grand
outpouring of the Democratic- Couserva.
tive masses of Lauderdale county, at
this place, last evening. A large dem
onstration was anticipated, and certainly
nobody was disappointed. We have
24pounder cannon here, fixed insti-
tuition. If the people in remote parts of
the county were not aware of this fact
before, they didn't eed to be told of it
after yesterday and last night. This
gun, together with three or four other
smaller pieces, manufactured thunder for
the occasion. Maj. Barksdale, of The
CLARION, who had been invited to ad.
the people, was on hand and made one
ofhis most telling speeches, replete with
facts, arguments and fervent and elo-
quent defamation He was loudly and
frequently applauded. He was followed
by our Judge Hamm and Judge Morris,
who made most impressive, earnest and
eloquent addresses, which were received
with frequent demonstrations approval.
The peoples hearts are in the cause, and
the feast of patriotic political bread that
was spread before them last night was the
true food for their hungry souls and they
partook heartily and with thanks.
AT 7 o'clock the procession was formed,
and long one it was, with great num-
Der of torches, interspersed with many
transparencies bearing devices and inscrip.
tons, both inspiring and amusing. At
the head was the Meridian Cornet Band.
There were also some pieces of artillery
in the procession which did their own
advertising. After traversing several of
the principal streets the procession was
halted at the speakers stand in large,
level, vacant lot in the eastern part of
the city, where the speaking took place,
above recorded. The ladies, God bless
them, were out in full force.
The occasion was one not to be forgot

THE revelations of Messrs. Pease and
Wells, both Radical Republicans and
Federal ofiice-holders, possess rare sig
nificance. The gist of their tostimo.
ny is that the responsibility of strife
and bloodshed is upon Ames who has
exercised his utmost ingenuity as
they charge to antagonize the races
in this State. Realizing the perils of the
situation. these gentlemen have antici-
pated the danger resulting to the peace
Of the State from the organization of the
colored militia. Had they known that
this militia had been actually sent out to
overawe and intimidate peaceabie and
law-abiding communities, their descrip.
ton would have had darker and more
vivid hue,

THE MUTATION.

It's no secret that since the premedi-
tated aud cold-blooded massacre of the
whites at Clinton, a number of white
military organizations have been formed
in various parts Of the State for defensive
purposes. II is known that Ames and
his clan, having despaired Of holding the
negroes together in any other way for
prolOngiug their rule of plumber and
lawIessness, and determined upon manu-
featuring pretext for bringing Federal
bayonets into the arena, have filled
the minds Of the negroes TO the ex.
tent uat they we're able, with
the most murderous intents against
the whites. Notwithstanding his assev-
estions 70 the Attorney.General, that

ny companies would provoke blood.shed
he has resorted to that expedient. He
has moi only organized them into militia
ny companies and is putting them under
course Of training for the bloody work,
with arms Of the most improved pattern
in their hands, but he has commenced inua-
dingpeaocaJic communities Nth these armed
bands. VIGOROUSLY for the purpose of over
awing the whites and bringing on conflict
between The races. He has accepted for
militia service, only few white cOmpa-
nies. while he has encouraged the organ
izations of numerous negro companies
in order that the latter may have the
advantage when the work ofblood begins.
II is no time now to daily with this grave
problem. The scent of blood is in
tho air. Antes IS organizing murder,

Obterwisc peaceful State, Nth all It's attend.
ant horrors.
The time has arrived when the compa-
MES that have been formed for defensive
and protective purposes should come to
the front There are three of them in
the city of Jackson. There are others
in other parts Of Kinds county. Let
still others be formed all over the State
as speedily as possible, and armed and
equipped with the best means that can be
extemporized for the occasion. The
right to bear arms is guaranteed
by the laws of the country. We
hope 10 see large and imposing display
of these defensive organizations that have
been formed in our city, as soon as prac-
ticable. la the meantime, let every citizen
hold himself in readiness to join one or the
other of these companies for the emergen-
,y that the bold, reckless and desperate
who is in the Executive office
seems determined to force upon us.
