POPULATION IN 1870.
Negro N aiOrities.


Delaware, Maryland, and Missouri are
not given in the table because the negro
vote is not large enough to be considered.
South Carolina and Mississippi are the on
ly States in which the negroes can count
on majority sufficient for any practical
purpose. But in such contest as their
conduct in Warren county and their pro-
ceedings in the last Legislature, are likely
sooner or later TO bring about, what would
their numbers avail them against
the courage, skill, discipline and desper-
ate intrepidity of the Anglo-Saxons
fighting for their homes and all they hold
sacred? Besides, it is not to be supposed
that the whites of the contiguous States
would be idle Witnesses of such conflict.
The means of transportation from one
State to another, are convenient and rap
id.
The negro leaders cannot be too often,
ner solemnly warned, that the white peo-
pie. like themselves, are here to stay.
They do not intend to be hewers of wood,
nor drawers of water They do not in
tend to abandon their homes nor to be
taxed out of them. There is limit to
the right of taxation, and the negro lead
ers and their allies have already reached
the boundary.

Railroad Intelligence.
McComb City InteIligeneer.l


At the late meeting of the managers
Of the New Orleans, st. Louis and Chi
| cago Railway, when officers as before an
nonneed) were elected for the ensuing
year-arrangementsw were made:
LIST. To increase the CARRYING power
of this road by the addition Of 23O
freight ears.
I'd. To reduce the freight time be-
tween New York and New Orleans three
days, and eorrespondlngly to all other
points.
Sd. To reduce the passenger time be-
tween those cities to 634 hours and cores
pondingly to other points
4th. A contract has been made with
Maj. 5. l.. James to raise the bed of the
road one foot above its present level from
New Orleans to Manchac.
1t was by great skill in engineering and
lavish expenditure that the R. r. Com
pany had the bed raised several feet last
season so successfully as to resist the
floods, but it is now proposed to elevate
it still higher and preclude the remotest
probability of hindrance to transportation
in the future
9th. Arrangements were effected TO
pay the employees in full, in cash, within
the next ninety days.
In word, redoubled vigor and energy
are to characterize the management of
the Road in all its departments SO as to
assert its supremacy as the main through
line between the North and the south
between the Northwest and the Gulf of
Mexico, and thence to the vast outside
world

The Democratic Position.

For convenient references we published
in the last CLARION the resolutions
adopted the present year by number OF
Democratic State Conventions, 1t will
have been observed that these resolutions
all ignore the dead issues of the past and
are redolent of the living questions of
the hoqr, On one topic only is the
least difference discovered, viz: the
currency, and upon this question, the
Democrats will have to agree to disagree
as the fathers of olden times were want
to do upon the question OF free trade and
protection. The Southern Democracy,
we believe, are firmly fixed in the opinion
declared by the Ohio Democracy that
'the volume of currency ought to be
''made and kept equal to the wants Of
trade" and that there should not be
taxation for the laboring man and free
dom from taxation by the bondholder-
but they will take no part In q contro-
versy on that subject, as there are other
matters which rise above it in Importance
to them. BY maintaining their neutral
ity they will be in position to act as um-
pire between their brethren of the East
and the West,

A correspondent recommends DR.. {.
NJ Walden, of Carroll. for the Demo
cratic nomination to this office, Every
body who is acquainted with him, knows
that he would not seek that or any office
but his qualifications, and his virtues as
a citizen and true patriot are equally
well known. In him are happily blended
the lofty elements which marked the
best men of the past and the progressive
spirit of the present. The Office could
not add to his fame nor his revenues but
his election would secure to the State a
man of unbending integrity who could
give security for millions and whose
pGghted faith as gentleman is worth
more than most mems bond. Amply
provided by his own industry with the
worlds goods, he could well afford to
make the canvass, and the people would
be encouraged to give him hearty sup
port by the conviction that his election
would place in charge of the State Treas
ury a citizen of capacity and unblemished
integrity.

A correspondent from the 9Th Con-
gressional District, sends us a commune
cation recommending H. c. Griffin, Esq,
Mayor of Natchez, for Congress. With
due respect to the writer, we cannot pub
lish his communication, and are decidedly
opposed to his policy.
The Conservatives and Democrats in
the 9th District, as in all the Districts,
should put forward their best and ablest
man, and elect him. This is no time for
third or fourth rate men, Mr.. Griffin
may make a frst-rate Mayor for Natchez,
but he would cut very small figure in
Congress, and as the Democrats have al
ready large majority in the House of
Representatives, we would rather the
Radicals should elect their man-Lynch,
if you please-than to send Mr. Griffin
to represent the talents OF the 9th Mis-
sissippi District. Oh /! excuse us, if you
please Lamar at the head and Griffin
at the tail-what spectacle
Again, our correspondent recommends
him as Republican. Leaving aside the
fact that that is very poor recommends
ton, we would like to know what would
be accomplished by his election. Being
Republican, he would vote as a Repub-
lican; would draw his pay like Repub-
lican, and otherwise would be nonentity.
Let the Conservative and Democratic
people of the 9th District bring out Hon.
Ben. King, of Copiah, or Gen. VIM. T.
Martin, of Adams, or Hon. T. B. Chris
man, of Lincoln, or Hon. VIM. A.
Champlin, of Harrison, or Judge Hurst,
of Pike, or some other frst-class man.
Let the nomination seek the man, not
the man the nomination, and when the
in this great emergency refuse to serve
them.
Or let them invite that grand statesman
and patriot, the victor of thousand fields,
ALBERT GALLATIN BROWN, to
lead the column in his old District,
where the people know him and love him
as people never loved man before. Our
word for it, they will rally to his stan
dard with wild whoop and loud hur-
rah which viii carry the notes of victory
on every passing breeze. They will be
heard in the storm, and the very streams
will murmur them as they ripple to the
| sea

'Fbe Crosby Bond Business.

The two Democratic papers at Vicks-
burg, the Herald and the Monitor, are
at Issue on this question. The Herald
insists that for Mr., Bedford to make a
bond for Crosby, and control the Office,
would solve the whole difficulty, and
make sure of faithful and honest ex-
ecution of the duties of the office for the
general good. The Monitor argues that
for white citizen to lend helping hand
to, and make bond for, a neg1o, ald
especially the faithless and corrupt fellow
who has caused large part of the trouble
in Warren, is inconsistent with the prin-
ciples and professions of the white-liners,
and is calculated to break up and demon
alize their phalanx
In the meantime, while these Journal
istic gladiators are fierceIy warning on
each other, Crosby slips from under, and
is reported as haying slept down and out
altogether.

DEMOCRATIC CONSERVATIVE MASS
MEETING OF THE PEOPLE OF
TIPPAH COUNTY.
LAMAR ENDORSED ssFIRST, LAST AND
ALL THE TIME"
DELEGATES 10 THE STATE AND DIS
FRICT CONVENTIONS.

At a Democratic Conservative mass
meeting of the people of Tippah county,
at Falkner Station, on the 18th day of
July, the following proceedings were
had
On motion, DIR. E. NJ. Alexander was
called to the chair, and H. S. Carter APP
pointed Secretary. The Chairman stated
the object of the meeting to be the aP-
pointing of delegates to the State Con-
vention at Jackson, on the Sd of August,
next, and to the Congressional Conven-
ton of the 1st District of Mississippi, at
Corinth, on the 22d inst.
Whereupon committee was appointed
to select delegates to said Convention,
which committee made the following re-
port
Delegates to the State Convention i:
Thos. Spight, w. C. Falkner, F. A.
Wolf, w. A. Boyd, and C. o. Slower.
Delegates to Congressional Convention:
H. S. Carter, j. w. I. Falkner, J. j.
Guyton, j. c. Park, and j. w. Norton.
The following resolutions, endorsing the
Hon. L. Q. c. Lamar, were unanimously
adopted
Resolved by the Democracy of Tippah
county in mass meeting assembled, That,
in the person of our gifted representative
in the last Congress, the Hon. l.. Q. G.
Lamar, we recognize the chivalrous gen.
tleman, the far-seeing statesmen, and the
unselfish patriot, whose name and fame
fill brilliant page in the history of the
nation.
Resolved, That by his watchful guardi-
anship of the interest of the South, by
his manly and eloquent defense of her
people, and by the dignified, but earnest
and unceasing efforts to re-unite in broth
erly love, the people of the two sections
of this union, he has endeared himself
to every lover of justice and good gov
eminent, and to every true friend of ma
tional prosperity whether his home be in
the North or in the South.
Resolved, That his course in the last
Congress meets our unqualified approba-
ton as an earnest of which our delegates
! to the Congressional Nominating Con-
vention, which will meet in Corinth on
the 22d inst, be and they are hereby
instructed to cast the vote of this county
first, last and all the time, to return him
to seat, which he has filled with such
distinguished ability, and from which he
has shed lustre upon the name of the State
of Mississippi.
Upon motion it was ordered that the
above proceedings be published in the
Ripley Advertiser and jackson CLAIR
ION.
The mass meeting then adjourned.

THE EXTRA SESSION.

The call for an extra session of the
Legislature, has been received with dis
gust and indignation. II has intensified
their adherence of Radical misfuie; and
furnished another example of the ineom-
potency and profigacy of those who are
administering the States affairs. The
pretext is to remedy their own work and
correct the stupid blunders of the Radical
managers What showing do they
make! Here they nave had regularly
one session a year and sometimes two,
ever since they have controlled the State
government, and these sessions have been
prolonged until public patience has been
exhausted yet we find by their own
acknowledgement that their work is but
half done. The sane pauseous dose is
to be repeated the present year, at an
expense of probably ONE HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS. The people must
arise in their might and hurl from power
these incompetents and corruptionists
who are violating their trusts and revel-
ling in their ill-gotten gains.

THE RACE QUESTION.



If the negro leaders had particle of
discretion, they would hesitate long be-
fore precipitating conflict of race in any
part of the South. They ought to
know that, in such conflict, their defeat
would be inevitable. Leaving out of view
calculation of the aggregate white pop
ulation in the two sections combined, let
US look at the statistics of the Southern
States alone. The following table, made
up from the ninth census, shows that there
are only three States in the Union wherein
the negroes have a majority, and only
two where on a square division of the
races at the polls the negro majority
is large enough to be fairly counted up

TrGIe Democracy.

The Democratic State Convention of
Ohio proclaimed in their platform as the
substance of their political faith and
action-as follows;
First, A sacred adherence to the prin-
ciples of government declared and put in
practical operation by the fathers of the
Republic.
Second. Opposition to aggression by
either department of the government,
upon the functions of the others, and to
the exercise by federal authorities of any
Of the powers reserved by the constitu-
ton to the States respectively. or to the
people.
Third, The projection of the govern
ment to all citizens, without regard to
race, color or previous condition of ser
vitude.
In the same connection, the Democracy
of Ohio arraigned the Radical party for
its numerous crimes, among the rest, it,
g continued tyranny and cruelty to the
Southern States of the Union"

Live Thunder from the Hills OF
EiPpah.

The hills of glorious old Democratic
Tippah resounded with live thunder at
the meeting at Falkner on the 18th inst.
There was 10 disturbing element. All
was harmony and a resolve to carry the
elections. LAMAR was present, and his
speech was a grand deliverance of sound
practical wisdom, eloquence and states
mahship. Resolutions were adopted by
reclamation and with fervid enthusiasm
declaring him the choice of the meeting
''first, last and all the time" Good men
and true were appointed delegates to the
State and District Conventions.
There isan ominous sound of victory
in the air. "Now, by St. Paul, the work
goes bravely on"

DIR. G.. M. Walden for State Treas.
Urer.
III. S. CARTER, CHI
Secretary,

Walden, Miss, July 18th, 1875.
Eds. CLARION Your paper truly
reflects the political wishes of the Con.
sentative masses throughout the State,
and in view of the coming election, is il
not strange that the claims of some dis,
tinguished citizen in connection with the
office of State Treasurer have not been
suggested? We have doubtless very
many in the State worthy and well quail.
fed so far as discharging the duties OF
this important office are concerned.
There are none, in our humble opinion,
better qualified to discharge the duties
of the office than our respected fellow
citizen Or. g. NJ. Walden, of Carroll
county. 1t is doubtful whether the ma
ture and extent of his private business
would admit of his acceptance though
he would make any sacrifice consistent
with honor to rescue the State from the
inevitable ruin which has, thus far,
proven to be the sequence of alien
rule, corruption and vice.
You are aware Messrs. Editors that a
gentleman of DIR. Vaiden's lofty integrity
and purity of life, could not be induced
to accept any position within the gift of
the people because Of any peouniary emol-
ument accruing from the same, but
at the same time, he might be in
duced to do so from a sense of duty and
with the hope of beneftting his State.
We could enlarge on the claims of this ex-
cellent gentleman but delieacy lestrains US
in consequence of our local predictions,
when we are actuated by no other motive
than that set forth in this signature.

Hon. Amos r. Johnston is posted for a
speech to the Democrats and COnserva-
tives at Raymond on Saturday the Oath.
The people of Kinds will be glad to hear
from their long time counsellor and I'M
wavering friend, Judge Johnston, on that
occasion. His words will be words of
wisdom, uttered with the captivating elo-
quence and flowing grace, peculiarly his
own. In this canvass the Conservatives
and Democrats and plundered taxpayers
of Kinds must shake off their apathy and
come to the front.

Our attention has been called to the
following ominous paragraph which ap-
peared in the Times, of Monday, one OF
the Republican organs of this city
If VIGOROUSLY bad and corrupt men are
permitted to direct the affairs OF the
heretofore, peaceful and law-abidiDg coun'
ty of Kinds, may we not reasonably an
ticipate a repetition here of the scenes OF
disorder, violence and blOOdshed by
which Warren county has already been
disgraced
This question was put to us yesterday
by prominent colored Republican, and
we unhesitatingly answered-yes.
