Yours, DAVIS MACkbEl,
We think il a little hard and quite alb

punish the murderers of the Chisolm
family. How can he get at ihem2 What
would the vigorous Mr.. Mackley do?
| What would the great Grant have done?
There were hundreds and thousands OF
/ political murders in the South during
( Grants immortal administration. What
did Grant do about it2 Did he hang OF
shoot or hurt any body2 Did he not sur.
render this very State of Mississippi
| What is the new policy Of the Presi
dent that there is talk about? What is
4 the novelty2 We are disposed to urge
the editor Of the Standard to be calm
lie should stand by and see the work o
4 salvation. If there is a solid South back
ed up by murder-aiter the Withdraw
4 OF the troops, in the absence Of all pre-
tense of coercion-there will be a solid
/ North until the South overcomes the evi
influences that are driving from that sec
ton both capital and labor. The Missls
sippi murder will cost the State millions
The punishment will be material. j
Brother Mackley prefers the British
form and texture oil government, he hai
"A right to his opinions, but he should ex
press them with becoming modesty.-

1t is foolishness TO talk about Grant, o
what he did, or what he failed TO do
You promised last fall that if IIaye
should be elected, there would be an en'
Of "Grantism." Grant came near destroy
ing the Republican party because b
tailed to protect Republicans in tn
South lie should have declared MARTA
law, and posted a squad of soldiers (vo
unteers) in front OF every residence II
the rebel States, and compelled the own
ers of property to support the soldiers.
1t is nice for an editor in Cincinnati L
advise Us. up here in the quiet village Q
Jackson, to stand still and see the saliva
tion wrought by Andy johnson numbe
two. Let the ed.to, of the Commercit
give this advice to Mrs. Chisolm, who's
husband. daughter and son have bee
murdered under this glorious policy
They can more fully realize the glorie
of my policy"
