CoRINTH. Miss, Oct. 10, 1876.
EDTFoRs CLARION: Gen. Reuben
Davis being in Iuka on Friday last to
aid in the defence Of Mr.. r. B.. Gardner
charged with killing a Mr.. Hall, was re-
quested to address a large number of
the citizens of T~ishOmiBgo county as
sembled at the courthouse. Yielding to
the solicitation he made d of the ablest
and most effective speeches Of his life.
held enchanted the large audience for
two hours, asserted that this election
would forever decide the question Of
whether u Republican form OF Govern
ment should be continued-said that the
great mass of the people we're more in
terested than anY one else-that the
man who hesitates in this contest was a
traitor to himself and family and friends
that every man should abandon all
business and devote ali his energies to
awakening an interest in the election
that men should be forced to register
and vote-that no question should be
asked as to who the candidates are-that
great and grand questions Of goyernmeut
were involved, no men. / think I can
safely say not a man heard him who did
net leave the court room resolved to give
to our cause his whole energies and eE-
forts TO create a united vote for .TIIden
and Hendricks in November next. He
himself promises to devote every hour
to our cause which can be spared from
other duties that be cannot ignore.

elsewhere we publish, for what it is
worth, a card from W, D. Sprott who
has arrived here, we expect, with a bloody
shirt tale. We are gratifed to hear from
him that the whites were armed, and hope
that, after their experience at Clinton
last fall, they will always be when they
are likely to encounter Radical negroes.
The constitution of the country gives them
the right to bear arms, and the Clinton
massacre teaches thai it Is prudeat at
Least to avail themselves of the right.

1t as a curious coincidence that sinulta-

HE buchanan Indictment.

Yesterday the Daily Times received
this dispatch
HOLLY SPRISGs, Oct. %.
Editor Daily Times:
The statement published in THE CLAIR
ION of the 2lst, that / am indicted in the
Marshall county court for ENLIGHTENMENT
is not true, and dispatches have this day
been sent to THE CLARION from the dis
trict- attorney and my attornies.
Respectfully,
GEo. NJ, BUCHANAN.
And thereupon comments as follows:
We were greatly astonished on reading
in The CLARION that Capt. Buchanan
had been indicted by the grand jury of
Marshall county, and We did not suspect
he truth oif thhA statement. We did not
doubt Capt. Buchanan's integrity nor
ability to maintain his high character
and good standing, by a complete and
honorable acquittaf. The telegram shows,
however, that THE CLARION has been
grossly imposed upon.
IF the Times will read the dispatch
again if will see that the Times, and not
The CLARION has ''been grossly imposed
upon not by what is in it, however, but
by that aohteh lVas left out. The dispatch to
us to which he refers says he was not in
dicted for embezzlement but for a INSIDE
meanor. Our information YVES erroneous
as to the gravity of the charge, not
as to the fact of the indictment.
Capt. Buchanan has been indicted
under Sec. 1890, Code of 1871, which
says:
"If any person, being sheriff, clerk of
any court, coroner, constable, assessor,
or collector of taxes, or holding any
county office whatever, shall neglect or
refuse to perform any of the duties re-
quired of him by law, or shall violate his
duty in any respect, he shall on convic-
ton thereof, be faed not exceeding one
thousand dollars, or be imprisoned in
the county Jail not exceeding six months,
or both .; ETC., etc.
As to the guilt or innocence of the
Mississippi member Of the National Re-
publican Executive Committee, we leave
that to the jury before whom he is being
to-day tried, but if he has acted no fairer
while an official by the county of Mar
shall than he did by the Times, in his
dispatch, we fear it viii go hard with
him.

Timely warming.

Col. Moses jackson, the vigilant
Chairman of the Democratic Executive
Committee Of Amite county, publishes a
stirring notice to the Democrats of that
county" that every mar is expected to
do his full duty. Therefore, register,
and see that your nelghbor does the
same. Every Club should now have at
work its ~canvassing committees, with in
structions to urge upon the lukewarm to
register and vote. The Registrars will
be at the court house on Saturday, the
18th of October, and continue in session
until the next Thursday, for the purpose
of accommodating those voters who have
neglected, from any cause, to register in
their proper precincts. This will be the
last opportunity"

Well said.

Commenting on the observation of the
Vicksburg Herald that
The dead weight the South is now
grooming under is old fogyism. Politi-
cally, commercially and agriculturally
she is handicapped with enough of old
fogies to sink her in the race for pros
perity,-
the Washington Capital says:
The Vicksburg Herald contain words
OF truth and soberness-facts, differences
and advice which should be addressed
personally, if possible, to every Southern
man. A few only of the old Southern
statesmen do not linger about the shat
tered idols and weep tears of regret, and
send up lamentations of inconsolability.
The hope of the South, the strength of
the South, the future of the South, rests
with the young men.

THE people of Mississippi. and the

Zach Chandler, Chairman of the Nation
al Republican Committee, said 81
would rather see every FfaG, woman and
child in the South pvt to the sword than
to see the Democratic party restored to
power" And yet this man Is the man
with whom a few-we thank God, only a
few-Southern men are acting with for
the sake Of Office.

REGISTRATION

Democrats, have you registered ?
Have you secured your right to vote ?
If you have not, but one chance remains.
Go to your c~ountY-seat at the appointed
time and attend to the duty. Remember
that in this business there can be no spb-
stitute. Every vote is a vote, and one
vote counts as much as another. Every
Democrat, no matter what his Occupa-
ton, should feel that it is his personal
business to talk up registration and to
ascertain by inquiry if any Of his friends
have neglected this duty and urge its
immediate discharge.
