THE LATEST SCARE IN MIsSIs
SIPPI.

The particulars of the latest war Of
races " in Mississippi seem to be in sub
stance as follows: At Democratic con-
vention held at Friar's Point, Senator
Alcorn made a speech in which he de-
nounced Brown, the colored Sheriff.
Brown, vino was present, asked permits
sion to reply to the Senator This re-
quest WAS denied the Sheriff. who de-
parted in high dudgeon, announcing
that he would call meeting on the fol-
lowing Saturday night. Then comes
the alarm that the blacks are arminS and

This attempt to tease the COMMERCIAL. and to
give color to pretence that we are not satisfied
with the Republican nominations is not worth
attention, for its own sake, but it gives rs OPP
portunity to state fact or two in reference to
the oId-fashioned practice OF advertising the list
Of party nominations " at the head 'of the paper.
This practice was long ago discontinued in most
newspapers of the better class. Occasionally
among those which come to our table we notice
one that continues it, but the great majority do
not The Republican newspapers of Phlladel-
phia-the Press, Bulletin and North American
= and those Of other cities, whose party ear
nestness is equally well known and unquestioned
never publish the list of their city candidates, or
indeed any other, at the head OF the paper. If
the advertisement is published at all, it is placed
elsewhere-usually In a prominent position, but
not preceding the editorial column. In this case
the support by the COMMERCIAL to the Republi-
can nominees is perfectly well known and SUBJ
stantially evidenced and the fact that wo do not
stick to the antquated custom of advertising
their names, day after day, is Of no significance
or Importance, whatever

The Art of - Msking-up.o

Lucy Hooper writes to the Philadelphia Tele.
graph; very curious industry in Paris, land
one that is more extensive than might be sup
posed from it's nature, is that of paints, pencils
and powders for making up the complexion.
Most OF the great perfumsrs, such Cuerlan,

devoted to this mysterious c, mmerce The
ordinary method OF daubing the face, first with
white paint and then with rouge, finds no favor
with the consummate artists who teach the use
of these beautlfying compounds For whitening
the skin, a preparation is shown that il COM
posed of some insolube powder in liquid the

very small quantity of its contents must
then be taken on a fine old linen rag or Bit of
cotton, and rubbed round and round till the pre-
paration has penetrated the skin thoroughly
This wash makes the complexion beautifully

sold at Sl2 for small bottle full. Next comes
the rouge, which ID also very costly, being val

this supertine article the grades descend through
different prices till we reach the coarse SIXTY
cent rouge, which no well-b beauty will CON
descend to use Different shades of rouges
are sold for different occasions there IL a
shade for daylight, ono for the theatre,
one for the ballroom, one for the race
course, &c. Then we have a scarlet Ii
quld used for coloring the lips, and black
powder for blackening the edges of the eyelId ;
this last requires some dexterty in its use, as
it must be put on powder and then delicate

used for making the arch of the eye heavy, and

quality of harmlessness is claimed for most OF
these pigments, yet deaths from roo free use of
them are not uncommon. Nj, Obin, of the Grand

The crops In Kentucky.

LOUISVILLE, August %, 1875. Tomorrow the
Courier Journal will publish crop estimates
from all sections in Kentucky and the tobacco
connties of the adjacent States, showing the av-
erape and condition of tobacco compared with
1878, the average aud condition of corn, product
Of wheat and other small grain, and the sup
ply of fattening hogs on hand. The
largest tobacco crop ever known was planted,
hnt subsequent msfortunes reduced 1t to d
nrospectiyely moderate yield, perhaps light
average, if future conditions are favorable
The returns cover the territory which produces
about three fourths of the crop OF the United
States. The original average of corn was very
great, and notwithstanding the weather damages
to two-thirds crop, rye about the same, and oats
arc damaged much more than any other crop.
The hay crop is large.

We all know the theatre to be the scene OF IN
cessant rivalry. Most of 1t is, athoush harassine'
legitimate in business of such peculiar require
ments But severe personalities and disputes
involving nationality and politics are surely to
be deprecated. We hear enough of the stage
having trenched on the pulpit and the assem-
bly,, but the opposite grievance is also OF some
consequence; to turn the Theatre into an apology
for church, as WAS attempted in ''The New Mag
dalen," or into an international debating society,
ss in Sardou's forlorn " Uncle Sam" is not at
all to make it answer its purpose. In the same
line of reproach must be placed all efforts to
gain applause from personal riyalries, where II
is seen that the only object is to Stir up partisan
feeling. The Forrest Macready affair will occur
to avery reader. The American was the real Of
Ter there without doubt, -what the rights OF
the latest opposition Of the kind are has not
been settled. We refer to the double effort be-
ing made in New York to secure a success for
Mr.. Barry Sullivan's engagement, and at the
same time to put Mr.. 4. L. Davenport into
''nice thing by an appeal to Native American
feeling. Mr.. Sullivan, as an Irishman, it is sup
posed will draw all the Unterrifed, while Mr.
Davenport as an Anglo-American, will conso-
date the Know Nothings. The tragedlans open
on the same date-next Monday evening-each in
the same character, " Hamlet" The 9th Regi-
ment, Qrish, is to attend Mr.. Sulliyans perform
ance aud afterward give the actor a serenade,
and the harp, the shamrock, the sunburst, &C.,
will decorate the house. At the other theatre
the announcement is made that Mr.. Davenport
will be supported by an irresistible combination
"entirely of American actors" The Star
Spangled Banner alone will be displayed and
''no Irish need apply" 1t is not likely that
there is any ground here for a quarrel, inasmuch
rs Mr. Sullivan is not known to have disturbed
the sensibilites of Native Americans,
but the whole business is q petty
one for actors and managers of
repute. Such vulgar appeals to popular sup
port are foreign to the interests Of true art. We
are sorry to see so fine an actor Mr.. Daven-
port lend himself to such thick he may bt
