JEFFERSON DAYS AND THE DzMOC-

A few Of the extreme Radical sheets
Of the country, such as the Washington
Chronicle for instance, have discovered
a high regard for Jefferson Davis. They
applaud his executive capacity, his in
tegrity and honesty, and even go SO far
as to suggest him as a suitable Demo
cratic candidate for the Presidency.
Some Of this kindness would have been
equally as grateful when the ex-Presi-
dent of the Confederacy chafed under
manacles at Fortress Monroe to await a
trial for his life. The object of thus
bringing him before the country is plain
enough. The name Of JEFF Davis, it is
thought, can be used to stir up and
yitalize the feeling of war prejudice and
sectional hate which has kept the Re-
publican party in power these fifteen
years. 1t is well known that Mr..
Davis has had and desired no CON
nection whatever with politics since the
war and has maintained a dignifed sill
ence which should be a rebuke to all his
calumniators, and will cause his name
TO go down in history as q man Of heroic
qualities under any and all circum-
s%tnnces; great in the field, the cabinet,
the executive chair, in a prison cell, and
in the utmost seclusion of private life.
Nothing but a spirit of cunning malice
could have inspired this new crusade
which is made to drag him forth from
fhe quietude of home snd friends in his
declining years, that through the use Of
his name the bitter feeling of former
years might be revived. This attempt to
couple his name with the Democratic
party and to keep up the cry Of rebels
will not deceive the intelligent masses at
the North. The device is too apparent
to mislead even the most ~prejudiced.
The civil rights bill as a party measure
is still-born, and has utterly failed to
stir up the strife that vas desired, and
its friends, il casting about for some
other card, happily fell upon Jefferson
Davis, and are about to make him nolehs
Volens a Democratic candidate for the
Presidency. 1t is not probable that the
nauooraFs w;lI naad nuch assistance
from that quarter in mapping out the
campaign of 1876. If no mistakes are
committed they will be able to take care
of themselves by that time, as we'll as
TO look into the ~corruptions and excesses
Of the Radical party. And when the
Democrats come into power they will
bring to bear some of hat sterling hon
esty and ability now so graciously con.
ceded to Mr.. Davis by his enemies.

An act was passed by the late General
Assembly to authorize the formation Of
Wisdom county from portions of Madi.
son, Henderson, McNairy and Harde-
mar counties. 1t is only an enabling
act, but if carried out it will forever de-
stroy the constitutionality of Bell
county, and if Bell county succeeds in
organizing first it will make Wisdom
county an impossibility under the late
act. 1t is a race now to see which can
first organize under the two enabling
acts.

Within the last two years several
unsuccessful attempts have been
made to rc-estabiish the Canton Lii
brary, but the difficulty seems to lie
in the unwilingness of parties hold
ing the books TO return them. |,
is true, that quite q number of the
books belonging to the library were
destroyed or carried away during
the war. but we have good reason
to believe that there are still quite
a number remaining in the private
libraries around town, which should
be returned to the proper parties.
Our town ought, by all means to
have Public Library or Reading
Room. Much good can be accom-
plished by encouraging our young
men and boys to form habits OF
reading and close observation. Let
not our citizens wonder why the
youth of our country are 50 wild
and reckless, when they put them
selves to no trouble to offer them
