THE APPOINTMENT OF ATTORNEY GEN.
ERAL,

66AIs
Governor Kellogg has merely followed
public opinion in Offering the position Of
Attorney General, made vacant by the
death of Colonel Field, to Mr.. William
II. Hunt. We can scarcely doubt the
Governor would have made this selection
even if Mr.. Hunt had not been nominated
to the position by the late Republican
State Convention. His well known emil
nent legal abilities, high personal charac-
ter and the well deserved confidence re-
posed in him both By Governor Kellogg
and his predecessor, all seemed to point
him out as the fit successor to Field. And
when we add to this the high recon-
mendation which he has received from the
party, and the interest his position on the
ticket gives him in the campaign, it will
appear that the Governor has performed
little more than the ministerial duty of
signing commission which it was OBJ
viously proper for him to Issue.
We can sincerely thank the Governor,
nevertheless, for the very excellent ap-
pointment. 1t will give entire satisfac-
ton to all parties, since, while the Re-
publicans will heartily applaud the act,
the Democrats, having no reasonable hope
the succession would fall on one of their
own members, can not possibly object to
the new appointee.
We are glad to learn that, in case Mr..
Hunt concludes to accept the appoint
ment, it will effect no change in his an
nounced intention to canvass the State in
the interests Of the Republican ticket.
He has, as We are informed, intimated
that he will be able to commit such bust
ness as it may be necessary to transact
during the next two or three weeks to an
assistant, with general instructions, with
out detriment to the public interest, while
he devotes a short time to the no less i'm
portant work of arousing the people to
the duty of sustaining their interests, and
preserving their liberties by proper ex-
ercise of the ballot at the coming election.

A SAMPLE OF MISSISSIPPI JUSTICE.

An incident comes to us from Missis.
sippi, and is held up for the admiration
of this community as a perfect model fol
the administration of justice everywhere.
The little story is briefly related by the
Natchez Democrat as follows:
Alfred Vaughn, 8 noted colored thief in
Monroe county, was killed last Saturday
night week ago by band of colOred
regulators, upon whose property no had
been depredating They shot him all TO
pieces. ALI the parties are in custody.
The moral which local organ applies
to this is that it is wrong to interfere with
colored thieves and that the arrest of
the murderers is an act which calls for
troops. This may be regarded in the line
OF another apology for the bulldozers Of
Louisiana; an attempt to show by ex-
ample that our fashion of administering
justice is followed in other communities.
We see in the Mississippi case and the
manner in which it has been treated
something quite different. We find there
in:
l. A man, if colored, may be con-
demned as a thief without legal trial
and conviction by a jury.
2. That having been SO declared, he at
once becomes All outlaw upon whose head
private parties, without any other warrant
than local public opinion, may wreak a
vengeance more severe than that pre-
scribed by the law.
.. "hen the uncommissioned regula-
tors have shot an alleged thief all to
pieces, and are themselves put into Jail
on charge of murder, the State authors
ties who thus call the assassins to account
may be snesred at BY an independent New
Orleans paper. which desires to keep up
The fnshion Of regulating matters without |

man." The average Republican is about
as clean as an average Democrat. His influ-
ence lisa personal matter. The Democrats
reasons are wrong, but it comes to cor
rect conclusion, and that is that the Dem
cratic party can not count upon any con-
siderable number of colored voters. In
deed, the tide has turned the other way,
and hundreds Of white young men in
this city, heretofore Democrats, have VOL
unfairly pledged themselves by club reso-
lutions to vote the Republican ticket.
