WHEN young Hal Dawson was
killed by Davis. and Gilmer, and shot
again after life was extinct, during the
reign of Radicalsm and the sheriffalty
of Ohisolm, Gilmer's particular friend,
we never heard any great clamor from
the Radicals for their punishment Of
Gilmer GA the contrary, the same clan
that was involved with Gilmer in the
late trouble with him which cost him his
life, used their influence to procure his
acquittal, and as mark of distinguished
consideration, they elected him to the
State Senate.

THE KEMPER AFFAIR.-It may be
said Of Hon. r. s. Hudson, Of Yazoo, as
of Caius Marcus:
lie would not Halter Neptune for his tri-

or dove tor his power to thunder.
The review of the Kemper troubles by
such a man is worth studying in the
storm of abuse ard random assertion
which have characterized most of the

y telegram from Washington informs
us that Mrs. Sarah A. Thompson, OF
Tennessee, has been appointed clerk in
the Tresury. The appointment is based
on the substantial service rendered by
the woman and her husband to the
government. During the war, she was a
spy and hospital-nurse. Her application
is regarded at the Department as the
strongest Ten lessee case on the files"

THE correspondence between Capt.
Shaughncssy and Gov. Stone will be
found in another column. The cores
pondence was Immediately teiegraphed
10 the n. Y Times, we infer for political
effect. Rash expressions, made when
the excitement was at fever heat, may
have caused the approximations for the
safety of her husband, expressed by Mrs
Chisolm when her letter was written, but
the fact that there was no demonstration
of violence at any time after the atfray,
and when he was at the mercy of the
parties concerned in it, shows that none
was really meditated. The appearance OF
an armed body of men in the county, foI
whatever purpose, would have had an
irritating effect, and the answer of Gov
Stone was timely and proper.
