Gently received letters from o. H.
Kelley, Secretary of our Naiiona
Grange, and j. T. McGee, of Durant.
Mississippi. Noble Grand Of the
Council of Laborers, in reference to
the latter association. Both spoke
of it as a bona fide effort TO give the
negroes an opportunity of co-operat-
ing with US in furthering the inte>
rests of agriculture. The latter says /:
"It is intended that this Order shall
be kept under the direction and con-
troll of the Patrons Of Hasbsndry,
and was originated by them. 1t is
not an attempt at trick making with
the coiored people, nor does it mean
speculation But is designed to en-
able the colored farmers to put their
products and influence in the scale
with the Patrons of Husbandry to
prevent them from being directed
against us. There is now in your
State a Councillor and Executive
Committee appointed. and you can
gain any further information you
may wish by addressing DR.. B. w.
Jordan, Jacksonville, Arkansas.
There is Grand Encampment at
Washington. ID. c.. with W. H. Kel-
ley as Grand Scribe. aud the order
is regularly incorporated. From
these fact and all other information
we can gather, we think this associa-
ton may be recommended 10 tie col.
ored people as just what they want,
and we should like to see them using
il as means of Banding themselves
together for all good and useful pur-
pOses.-ED.

In conclusion we beg to assure
your honorable bodies that in thu
exercising the sacred right Of petit.
ton, we have not intenied to cast
any reflection upon this or former
Legislatures, nor have we been in.
lluenced Ivy any motive Of gaining a
party advantage. The members OF
the convention which presents this
petition belong to all parties. We
regard the great interests OF the
State and her people. 20 much impov
crished by the abuses we complain Of,
as too high and sacred to he made
the subject Of party contests
Mississippi has a soil uhoqualled in
fertility and in the variety of its pro-
ducts. Our climate il genial and
healthy. Every element of high
prosperity and of material and moral
advancement exists. But not with.
standing all this, every business il
depressed, the people dIscontented
and psralyzed. we have the he.
numbing influence OF despair and
threatened ruin in lieu Of the healthy
and vigorous activity and energy of
hopeful progress. And there yet re
mains the sajdest truth Of all. There
is distrust and want of mutual con
fidence between the different classes
Of our population and deep and
wide gulf separating the rulers and
the ruled. The taxpayers do not de- |
sire this, and they now make this re.
'pectfu petition and appeal to the |
Legislature in the hope that that
body may receive it in the spirit in
which it is made, and that such &C
ion may result as will speedily put
Mississippi on the high road to pros
,erity which shall bless all clasoes
md conditions and extend to every
ection Of the State.

The cost Of ASSESSING and CoL~
LEcrING the REVENUE of the STATE is
out OF all proportion to the necessary
labor and responsibility required in
/, The discharge Of those duties. The
gains TO these officers are enormous
Under the of Code 1857 the maximum
which an Assessor could receive in
any one year was $500 and the commits.
sions of the Collector was graduated
according to the amount collected, so
that it rarely happened that COLI
lector received as much as $1,000 per
annum, and he seldom, ii euer re-
ceived as much as 81 800 in one year.
We respectfully ask. that the COM
pensation paid to these officers should
be so regulated as in no case to ex-
ceed the sums above mentioned.
The compensat on OF the COUNTY
TREAsURER should he fixed so as not
TO exceed in any instance the sum of
$500 per annum. His duties are
light, and his responsibility will be
small, if the county lcvies are re-
strained as are hereinafter asked for.
The fees of Chancery and Circuit
clerks and Sheriff are too high. aud
we are sorry to add. in many instan>
ces. are very much increased by ex-
orbitant aud Illegal charges. We ask
that this subject he cagefully looked
into by the Legislature, and the rates
so fixed, thai whilst a lair aud inst
compensation is allowed Tor these
services, the burdens of the suitor
shall not be 80 great as they now are.
Aud we suggest that the State. like
the United States, will fix a compen-
sation of county officers, beyond
which tie fees shall go into the State
Treasury.
In many counties this point might
be fixed at 5000, in others at 1920.
but in no instance should it be liked
beyond $4,000 for clerks, AID $4,000
for sheriff including their gains as
Tax collectors.
The Jail foes are great burden on
the people they are now too high;
and yet in many instances extra CON-
pensalion is allowed by the Board Of
They should be fixed

our affections as summer evening resort
Why not also have summer musical garden
at the lower end of Central Park and another
at the upper for the use of the inhabitants of
Harlem? Why should not this magnificent
pleasure ground be kept open in the evening,
with Mr.. Thomas or Mr.. Gilmore presi ding
over well appointed band and with moder-
ate and innocent refreshment for those who
care to spend an evening under the stars lis
tening TO Beethoven, List and Wagner
And so we might continue, showing hun
dred different points where, without any ex-
pense practically, but by simply following
sensible and wise policy, New York might be
made as attractive, not only to those who live
here, but to those who are anxious to pay it
yearly visit, as Paris or London. What we
complain of is that we do not do the city JUS
tice. The dead summer days which we all
dread so much and which bring with them
apathy and prostration and business depres-
sion might be made bright summer days. The
season OF our city prosperity would not de-
pend upon winter or summer, but go round
and round with each change of the revolving
year.
