been king. As a lecturer he was
and ever will be failure, as hum
bug he was nnequaled, and may we
never look on his like again. With
q stuffed donkey covered with a

show on paper than any artist eve-
heard of. He could publish more
lies about what he had and what he
would do. and deliver poorer lee

The St. Louis Republican drops
this very sensible word of advice
for the Southern people: at is not
encouraging to the Southern States
to find their idlers swarming to
Washington to pick up the scant
crumbs dispensed by a Democratic
house, That section needs some
thing q great deal more than FEEDER
al offices; these viii not lift it out
of its poverty and make it powerful.
1t needs the wealth that steady, per-
sistent, productive labor alone can
give, and if the idle young men. of
the Soath were to go to wolk reso-
lutely at home, instead of flocking
to Washington, we would hear less
of the repudiated and disowncd
debts that are the constant subject
of complaint in that region"

Last week that vindictive old par
alytic, bloody-shirt Morton, of In
diana, offered a resolution in the
United States Senate calling for an
investigation of the recent State
election in Mississippi, which was
carried by the Democrats. He
doesn't expect to accomplish any
thing by such an outrageous inter
ference ofthe Federal Government in
the affairs of a State, beyond max
ing a little political capital out of
the expiring embers of sectional
prejudice in the North. His excuse
for it was that the Legislators chosen
at the election referred to would
probably select a United States sen
ator, and that senator would proba-
bly, apply for admission, and then
the Senate might conclude to go
behind the senator's election and in
quire into the election of the Legis-
lature which selected him. s.Sarah,"
said a fond mother to her little ten
year-old girl. "what are you crying
aboutY' "Why, ma, 1 was a-think-

got married, an eff had a weentsy
teentsy darling little baby, an eff it
fell in the fire an got burnt up, what

Senators Morton and Bayard hay
ing thrown themselves into a hostile
attitude, the New York World pho
tographs them: 'These two sena
tors are the complete aptipodes of
each other in. their opinions of the
true relation of the Several States.
Morton asserts for Congress a juris-
diction large enough for anything
he or his party seeks; Bayard will
yield to Congress nothing which a
fair construction of the granted |
powers in the Constitution does not
compel him to yield. In cases of
doubt Morton takes every presump-
ton in favor Of Congressional pow
er, while Bayard contends for the
several States. Morton dwarfs the
States an every possible opportuni-
ty and expands Congress; Bayard
upholds and vindicates, on every
proper occasion, for the States that
which they have not surrendered to
Congress, Morton viciously ex-
ploits the worst theories of AleXan-
and John Adams, while
Bayard is faithful student and fol-
lower of Jefferson"

uoK.ssnaE MURDER:
The Victims Head Cut Of aud His God.
burned,

Our community was shocked on Wednes
! lay last bv the announcement of the dis
covery of the charred remains of a man
near the Pritchard place, SIX miles east
Canton. The surroundings indicated clear
ly that crime had been committed, mor'
diabolical and revolving than any that hat
ever before startled and Mortified our PEG
pie. Tho victim was Mr.. Austin Milliner, {
quiet, peaceable and handwriting citizen
of Lcake county-the father of four moth
erless children.
Milliner came to Canton on Tuesday,wltl
| FIVE bales of cotton, which he sold, placing
the proceeds TO the credit of John L. Smith,
of Geodhopc, Leake county, to whom the
cotton belonged. Milliner then started to
return home, (Tucsday EVENING" and this
was the last seen of him alive.
| On Wednesday at noon, Messrs Cham
bers, Pigg, Sheppard and George, farmers
of the neighborhood, were on their way to
this city, and stopped at the Tournament
Ground;" for their midday repast. just
below the place where these gentlemen
| were dining, they observed the oxen which
Milliner had driven, grazing i'll the field;
whereupon they inferred that Milliner had
camped in the vicinity, and set about md
ing him. On going into the woods they
came upon ghastlg and revolving specta-
Gle. The wagon of poor Milliner was
nearly DESTROYED by fire, and beneath it
were the remains of the unfortunate man.
The head had been severed from the body,
the legs were cut off below the knee, and
the arms chopped off at the shoulders, and
the fire had burned and blackened the
trunk and limbs almost beyond recogni-
ton. It is supposed that Milliner had
halted and camped for the night; that tho
murderer had seen him have the cotton,
and returning with an empty wagon, and
Inferred that he was flush of funds; and,
being tempted by the hope of gain, had
murdered him, and then endeavored to
destroy the body by making funeral pyre
of the wagon, thus giving out the infer
ence that the fire was accidental and that
the victim had been burned to death. But
the skull bore the mark of blow from an
axe, or some other heavy instrument, by
which it had been crushed in.
A jury of inquest was impannelled by
Justice Pitchford, and returned a verdict
that the victim had come to his death by
the hands of some person, or persons, to
them unknown.
If any clue to the perpetrator of this un-
natural deed has been discovered, none has
yet been made public. Suspicion rests on
certain parties, however, and we sincerely
hope that the fendish crime may be traced
to its source and the guilty speedily
brought to justice.
