however, arisen when be has to sp'
peal to the whites to help him out IN a
local quarrel which he p~recipitated last
Saturday. Really, we have nc earthly
sympathy between the two Radical fac
tons, aud would say let them fight it out
if there is any fight on either side, we're
it not that some Of our white friends are
mixed up in the rumpus. Between ma
tive and imported Republicans in search
of office, we have not sufficient choice to
express a preference. Radical rule is a
curse and a blight on the energies OF any
Southern State, for il is necessarily self
ish, mercenary and corrupt. Let the
good people of other counties in Missis-
sippi reserve their energies and force for
the election day aud avoid the misfor-
tunes and mistakes Of Coahoma county.
The Democrats, by discreet but bold
effort, can carry the State and throw
overheard forever Ames and Alcorn and
fall into line with the States already
mentioned, leaving only Louisiana and
South Carolina as standing monuments
Of Radical infamy.

RAILRnAn

We commend the following article
from the Somerville Falcon of this week
to the attention Of the management Of
the railroad mentioned. The complaint
seems to be a just ona. We do not be-
lieve the rates complained Of would be
charged if there was a competing line.
Sonerville happens to be in an isolated
situation and at the mercy of the
Memphis aud Charleston railroad.
Here is what the Falcon says:
The recent action Of the Memphis and
Charleston railroad, increasing the
freight tariff on cotton, is an extortion
that meets With and merits the strongest
condemnation. The charge for carrying
a bale of cotton from Somerville to Mem.
phis is now two dollars. The old price,
one dollar and q half per bale, was ex
orbitant, and 1t is by no e astonish.
ing that our merchants and planters cry
out against this addition of fifty cents
per bale, bringing the cost by rail up to
the old price charged for hauling it on
wagons, The policy Of this road seems
to be, mot o make the road profitable by
the amount OF business done, but by
charging exorbitaut rates for what it
does, and hence, the last cent that their
charter allows is charged passengers and
every dime they think the public will
bear for freight. 1t is to be hoped the
company will see the injustice of thus
depressing the people, and at least re-
turn 10 the old rate. which V s certainly
sufficiently high. Before tae war the
freight on a bale Of cotton from Somer-
vile to Memphis was, we are informed,
about eighty cents, and the passenger
fare one dollar and a half, and in the
same proportion over the remainder Of
the road. The road was then a paying
institution. Its stock commanded a pre-
MUM, and stockholders realized a hand
some dividend. Now, with the rates
nearly doubled, the stock is down to al.
most nothing, and the stockholders do
not realize a dime of dividends. Might,
not q return to ante bellum rates be bet.

can be found without trouble. This
done, bis work is done. and the crowd Of
worried business men have TO attend the
Criminal Court and await until their
names are called by the clerk as the
jury is being ~impansled. Sometimes
the unfortunate has to wait half a day
for a chance to offer his excuse to the
court. The summoning officer gets his
pay for each juror summoned, and If q
hundred business meR are excused, why
he gets the same amount for summoning
another hundred business men. One Of
these deputy sheritfs had the unparaled
cheek to summon two newspaper men
as jurors not long since. and had the
Judge not excused them on application
their paper could not have been pub
lished on hat day, Some discretion
should be used in this matter, and the
voracious deputy sherifs should be in
