Interview with Senator AIcorn.

Memphis, September0 0. The Avalanche pub
fishes lengthy interview with Senator Alcorn, in
regard to the condition of affairs in Mississippi.
Mr.. Acorn says there is great disturbance there,
and bad blood between the races and parties, and
bad men finding employment in felmenting
the disturbance. 1t will continue, so he says,
til the people learn to follow conservative course
and to sink their passions for the public good.
There is bad state of feeling existing, and it
only takes two or three drunken men at gather;
ing to cause that feeling to vent itself in blood
and violence, as at Clinton. The Senator was
very severe on Gov. Ames, who, he says, is vindi-
cative and not actuated by aDv kind feeling toward
the people over whom he is enihroned. The
Senator charges the democrats Of Mississippi with
the responsibility ofAmes' election, as they in the
recent election urged that it would be better to
elect Ames and make the State hell first and
democratic afterwards. lie thinks the bloody
chasm does not fill up felicitouslv, and that the
people OF the North more prepared to re-
ceive complacenty lectures from Lamar, Gordon
and JEFF Davis, than those of the South would be
to hear Phll Sheridan.
