Religion ia Politics.

Our readers will see by the following
from the New York Herald that we are
not alone in the opinion that the Radi-
cal leaders are striving to revive the
spirit of religious intolerance for the pur-
pose of subscribing partisan aims in the
pending canvass:
The aim OF the Republicans will be to di-
vert the canvass from reform t. side issues.
They will present two poiuts-the shotgun
and the Pope. They do not appear in The
platform, but the whole temper ofthe Con
vention shows that the canvass, so far as
the Republicans are concerned, will depend
upon two issues: The first is to arouse the
war feeling, on the ground that what the
Southern people failed to win with the ri
ne they are striving to win with the shot
gun. The second is an app al to the sus-
picious, ever active and aggressive spirit of
religious hatred, achich the nomination of
General Hayes rs Goreraor i,tooked ia Ohio,
and OF aetich he is tie CHIEF representative in
the Republican party.
The New York Sun, another indie
pendent journal, has this to say on the
same subject
During his last campaign for Governor,
Hayes was sustained by the anti Catholic
sentiment OF Ohio, which, perhaps, had
more 10 do than anything else with his
election. The whole platform will suit
him, as it was the work of the machine, and
as he himself is the candidate of the ma
chine.
Ifthe election was intended to have been
Il fair and free expression of opinion why
this military parade and the importation
Of rifles and the bursting open and carry
ing off State arms? Mr.. Hooker couldn't
remember this part of the canvass, o. did
he desire to conceal the facts ?-Prairie
News
Before the canvass progresses far, We
will show TO your hearts content who
commenced military preparations in this
State and organized war among the peo-
pie. When Governor Ames fed his
camp before ''the terrors of the offended
law" he left evidences Of his military
programme, which when brought to
light, will astound the public. The half
has not been told.

THE MERIDIAN GAZETFE.--We hope
that the suspension of this excellent
paper is only temporary. Mr.. L. T..
Cooper is one of the ablest journalists
and raciest writer's in the State. His SER
vices cannot be we'll spared in the APP
preaching canvass From his announce
ment of the suspension of his paper, we
have extracted the following Characters
tically spicy paragraphs
We are reluctantly forced to the UNI
palatable conclusion that the number OF
people who consider this paper necessary
| to the continued existence and safety OF
the Republic are in hopeless minority
| in this country.
If its demise should be regarded as a
public calamity, let the public take com
fort in the knowledge that the starting of
a new organ to cheer and guide them Is
not an impossible thing in this golden
age Of newspapers.
Rather than lower the high standard
erected for its guidance, or TO counte-
Dance the modern ''patent outside" iniq-
uity, the "ready set matter enormty,
and other desperate humbugs of impecu-
mostly, we prefer TO let our fair craft
sink beneath the pillows of its own adj
versity, and bury its wisdom in the
grave Of perpetual silence.
If anybody has any tears to shed about
it, and will kindly shed them, we shall
esteem it a touching compliment; and if
anybody considers the catastrophe Il
lauUh , hla circumstance we will not at
tempt to interrupt his hilarity.
We now formally yield up the ghost,
and offer the material, good will ETC., Of
this entire office for sale Ambitious
parties need not be afraid of it. 1t is
safely shielded under the protecting aegis
of an ample mortgage. A man of mod
crate capital i'll nerve can take hold of it
and accumulate in a marvellously short
time an amount of debts which will en-
able him to retire upon.

adoption. and is always present at our State
Conventions. When Mr.. Barksdale and
others, at our State Convention on the 14th,
wanted committee to fix up platform, or
resolutions, or something, he said we didn't
want any plat form and he then and there
notified them that if they fixed up one that
was in his way, he should step across their

AN argument in favor of Hayes is
that he had had no utilization with the
scandals Of the Grant Administration,
which has really been the party itself for
the past six years. The meaning of the
argument is that the candidate Of the party
is better than the party itself. If he has
ever objected to its corruptions, the fact
is not known; and besides the Conven-
ton which nominated him endorsed the
administration.

Mississippi has now Supreme Court
of which she Justly feels proud, and
which brings TO mind those other days
when the bench was graced by such judges
as Sharkey, Clayton, Smith, 1erger,
Handy, Harris and Elliott, and when
the decisions of Mississippi, for ability
and legal correctness, ranked with the
first courts in the country. Judge
Chalmers went on the bench May lst,
1876, and Judge Campbell, MAY 10Th,
and the present court, composed Of these
two justices, and the distinguished Chief
Justice, Simrall, will soon restore
Mississippi to the position which she
enjoyed and so Justly deserved, when hei
lawyers Of great minds were upon the
bench.
Since the 1st May, including cases
dismissed and affirmed as delay cases
one hundred and ninety cases have beer
finally disposed of. In three-fourths Of
these, written opinions have been deliv
cred. and many of these have been elab
crate discussions of new questions.
The court took a recess on Saturday
last, until July 10th, when the judges
will return, and work until every case
before them has been decided, thing
that has not been accomplished since

THE New York World discusses Hayes
as back-salary grabber, and reaches the
natural conclusion that the Cincinnati
nominee is in fact a perfect representative
of Grantism and the evils Of the Grant
administration. His obscurity and his
personal responsibility are only a cover

practices, that have cursed the country
for the last eight years. Memphis APP
