Mississippi Radicals Die Hard.

JACKSON. January 1S.-The vote for
United States Senator was: SEM .e-
Lamar, %; Martin, /. House-Lamar,
SO; the Republican members voting
blank. 1t is said they, at a private eau
Gus decided not to participate in the elec.
ton of Senator on the ground that the
late election was carried by fraud and
violence. One wing of the Republ-
can party desired to compliment
Senator Alcorn, while the other wing
desired to pay Gen. Alexander Warren,
late Chairman OF the Republican Exec
utive Committee, and ex State Senator,
and Maj General of the militia, a
distinguished honor
Yesterday the Attorney General filed
petition bringing to light the doings Of
the notorious land grab fraud, called the
Pearl River Navigation Company,
of which Warren was treasurer.
This scheme mulcted the::State out
ola largesum and the chief actors except.
ing Warner have left the State: The
call and the publication Of the psrtlcu-
lars created such a sensation, that those
who desired TO compliment Warner
could not stand the pressure. They were
equally adverse to the vote for Alcorn,
therefore the whole matter was COM
promised by all hands voting blank.

Situation Ia the Tu, kish Provinces.

LONDON, January l8.-.Tbe Times this
morning publishes letter from Vienna.
giving the following account of the STU.
alton in the Turkish provinces: Partly
from sincere wish to end the insurrec-
ton, and partly from anxiety TO escape
Intervention, the sublime Porte IS max
ing efforts to achieve pacifcation un-
aided. The new Turkish commander,
Mukhtar Pasha, and the new Governor,
Ali Pasha, are to cooperate to that
end, the former by military dispositions
and the lattetr by political and diplo-
matte activity. The severe checks the
insurgents have recently suffered and the
large relnforcements the Turks have
lately received, render offensive opera
tions by the insurgents very improbable
Mukhtan Pashs seems TO have in
structions not TO operate against the
insurgents but to begin by the oc-
cupation of important positions
and defences Of the Montenegrin coun.
try, whereby sort of truce will be
drawn to prevent the Montenegrins from
assisting the insurgents, and the Turkish
arms will be turned against those at
tempting TO pass the frontier. So far as
provisions and munitions Of war are con-
cerned, such disposition might answer,
but it would be ineffective and against the
passage Of armed mutineers. The sort
of truce thus established with the insur-
gents will be utilized by the govern
ments summoning an assembly OF nota-
bles at Mostar TO draft report OF the
grievances of the country to be sent
direct TO the Sultan. The Sultan will
then consider sll just complaints and
make special concessions to Herzegovina.
No concessions will be possible
without extending them 10 Bosnia
also, which is scarcely practicable
on account Of the much larger populs
lion of Musselmen in Bosnio, who are
already so excited and so fanatical that
there Is great danger OF an outbreak
leading 70 secession. In order TO solve
the difficulty, Herzegovina will be Gre
ated an independent vilayet. The cir
cum instances OF the two provinces are en-
tirely different, the proportion OF Chris
tians in Bosnia being as two TO three, and
in Herzegovina about rs one % two.
None Of the powers will grudge Turkey
the merit Of pacifying the insurgents un-
aided. On the contrary all oil them will
be relieved from much inconvenience
and anxiety. After the sprevioas
fruitIe.s efforts, it is doubtful whether
this eleventh hour one Is likely 70 be
much more successful.

DEAR SIR:-Yours Of the 29th ult,
asking me to explain the origin of the
following language, contained in circu-
lar published by me at Fairmont, dur
ing your candidacy for Congress in the
Second West Virginia District, to-wit:
That rebels had no rights TINT loyal
men were bound to respect, but to dsngle
st the end of rope" rs 1T hand, and l
hasten to reply. You had given me a
sort of carte blanche TO run the campaign
for you. The intensity of your LOYALTY
was questioned by many good Union
men OF the District, notwithstanding you
were IN the Federal army, and deemed
1t necessary at the time To disabuse the
minds Of such doub,ers of your certain
sympathy with them. The language
above quoted was my own, not yours, and
recollect YOU complained to me for
using such strong terms in circular
over your signature. am sure you
never saw the sentiment till after it wa:
in circulation.
regret to learn, or rather to infer
from your letter, tha. what q man on
either side, said during the prevalence ol
passions excited by the lstewsr,i IS still quo
ted to his prejudice in West Virginia
We Missouri "Border Rufflsns" have got
brsvely over all such toomfolery. Out
here we are "all Democrats and all Re
pnblicans," except q few gentlemen in
st. Louis who make their whisky "crook

and to hear from you again.
Yours truly,
JOHN N. BoYp.

VIII OF the Late Timothy Kirby.

CINCINNATI, January lS.-The will OF
the late Timothy Kirby was admitted to
probate to-day. After the examination
of all the witnesses to the signature,
Judge Mattson said that he regarded the
probate of the will as er parte and purely
formal, and the parties interested could
contest it in the ordinary way. General
Banning, Dan Piatt and Byron
Kirby, three Of the executors named
in tie will, declined to act as
executors under 1t, and Clinton
Kirby, the fourth nominee consented. As
Mr.. Kirby, in the will, deplores contest,
1t is thought probable that none will be
made thus leaving the illegitimate child
rem on the footing placed by Mr.. Kirby
Several days must elapse before :he full
value of the estate will be known.
