The New Orleans Times speaks en-.
couragingly of the Frightening pros
poets Of that city. 1t says the cotton
factory is to resume operations and to
be run to it's fullest capacity. Two
new sugar redneries have been COM
menced, Two grain elevators are to
be built as soon as railroad connec.
tions are made. Asphaltum pavements
are being laid, the material being
brought from Cuba. Four Touring
mills are under contract. Tie wharves
are being repaired. New buildings are
in process OF construction in various
parts OF the city, and the rich lands
surrounding the city have been thrown
open to persons disposed TO cultivate
them upon the most liberal terms.

wednesday Morning, August /.

We hope our Convention will not
fail n adopt a resolution indorsing
Hayes Constitutional policy. His
Civil Service Order should also re-
ceive the hearty support Of Mississippi.
Vicksburg weekly herald., 1877-08-03

If the Convention which assemblies
at Jackson to-day should nominate
Gen. Humphreys for Governor, it
would give such general satisfaction
to the people Of the state as no other
nomination could. True, there are
local preferences as expressed in the
instructions of a number Of counties,
which should, of course, be respected
and considered. But no one doubts
that Gen. Humphreys stands as next
of choice in almost every instance
where instructions have been gwen.
Should, therefore, the contest be sharp
and likely to continue for any consider
able length Of time, instead Of a sQuab-
BILE and wrangle, the people would be
pleased to see the contending elements
reconcile their differences by uniting
on "Uncle Benz and the drst candi-
date who should withdraw with the
view Of bringing about such an ad-
justment, would certainly he remem-
bered, hereafter, in the distribution Of
popular favors.

The encouraging prospects OF the
Democratic party in Wisconsin are at
tracing general attention. The party
expects to carry the State, and hasty
look backwards shows that the exp C.
tation is a reasonable one. In 1872
Grant had 1850 majority, and the
year following the Grangers elected
their candidate for Governor over The
regular Republican nominee by a
majority almost as large. In 1875 the
Granger Governor, having made him
self distasteful, was defeated by the
most popular Republican in the State
with ANA Sjority Of only SAL. Wiscon.
sin was among the States set in the
doubtful column with Tilden leanings
last Fall, but Hayes pulled through
with q majority OF 6,l4l. But the Re-
publicans have no majority there now
that can be depended upon, 8 fact that
seems TO be appreciated by Governor
Ludington, who has declined o renom.
inStion that he could have had for the
asking.
