The Approaching Session of the
Legislature.

EDITORS CLARION: 1t occurs to me that
the work OF the coming session of the Leg
islature would be facilitated by bringing
the people to consider and advise their rep
| resentatives touching the matters likely to
be acted upon by that body among the more
Important of which may be mentioned:
1st. An easier and more economical
school law, limiting the public schools to
the elements of AN English education, such
as reading, writing and arithmetic.
Sd. The repeal, or non repeal, or the lin
itation of the present lien law.
4th. A more effective system of keeping
the public roads in repair, and utilizing in
that connection convict labor, and making
more effective the criminal procedure be-
fore Justices of the Peace. The sheriffs of
the several counties having to visit Jack
son on official business, could appoint
time to meet there and consider in a body
the revenue laws and other matters, and
give the Legislature valuable ADVICE.
By working the roads under contract,
with specifications aud bonds, to be paid for
by a communication tax, to be liked in the
several counties by the Boards of Supervi-
sors and collected from the hands liable to
work on the roads, and if need be proper
ty tax, aud requiring the contractors to
take the labor of all persons convicted of
misdemeanors as we'll as of felonies, SEN
fenced TO one year or under to the peniten-
tiary, until they can work out their time
and pay all the costs, at prices to be fixed
from time to time by the Boards. The
roads would be made good and the coun-
ties save the taxes they have to pay for jail
fees, costs etc., and collect the fines for the
school fund and thus lessen the school
taxes. Counties having too few convicts to
justify guards and log jaiIs on the roads,
could have them worked in adjoini ing
The JuStices of the Peace aud members
Of the Boards of Supervisors, could By
meeting in their several counties. give the
Legislature valuable aid, especially in the
matters Of criminal procedure, roads and |
schools. The Justices of the Peace on ac-
,oupt of insolVencies and law fees receive |
100 little to justify them in giving that at
ention to criminal matters, which the laws |
ind the good Of the country require.

Under existing laws 20 election VIII
be held in Mississippi next Jear, except
for members Of Congress. The Holly
Springs South suggests that the LegislA-
ture petition Congress 10 pass special
act applicable to Mississippi alone, auz
thorizing the election 10 be held in 1879
ana every two years thereafter X9htiI a
change can be effected in the Estate Goa
stitution so as to have S1late and Con-
gressional elections att the same time.
The objection to tb4s suggestion is that it
would leave tbSg State unrepresented in
Congress from the 4th of March, 1879,
until November of that year aud in
casseof an extra session, in view of the
I%evenly balanced condition of parties
and the nature of the questions that
might arise affecting the interests of our
people, the omission would be hazardous.
The State is in no condition to be unrep-
resented in the national councils. At
the present session the Democratic ma
joritY in the House of Representatives.; /
hut thirteen. Withdraw the six member
e from Mississippi AMI the difference woulc
e be material. With thirteen majority, til,
4 House has pot been able to overcome thu
influence of the military ring and tn
e Republican leaders who clamored agains
a a reduction of the army at the presen
session.
If there was guarantee that the pub
+ : lie interest would suffer no detriment, til,
7 State might avoid the inconvenience o
an election at the time now prescribed
: by law; but no such assurance exists.
D In the absence of any election excep
t for members of Congress, no great ex
. element or serious diversion of the pub
lie mind from ordinary avocations, neeC
be apprehended. The chief agitation
} will be in the settlement of the prelimi
nary question Of who shall be candidates
That matter determined, and there will
f little else to disturb the public repose
: We presume the Republican leaders vii
retire from the contest as they have done
in the canvass for State officers at the re
cent elections, and that the Democratic
nominees will walk over the track without
opposition.

THE Meridian Mercury, commenting
upon the capture in the Chisolm gin
house with Chisolm arms in his hands,
by the Gully boys, of Riley, the sup
posed murderer of their kinsman J. w.
Gully, and his deliverance unframed to
the Jail, says:
With all the temptations TO make sure OF
the punishment of one of the murderers of
father and near kinsman, they return him,
without imbruing their hands in his
guilty blood, when and where tn might
have done it, perchance, without much
question from Circuit Judge or grand jury,
to the custody of the law whose uncertain
ties within the last few weeks they have
had demonstrated To them by two several
attempts to burn the Jail and successful
escape. Talk about 'hstoric days. in
kemper county, Here is an incident that
deserves to re historic, and here are actors
in the drama of life worthy to be recog-
nized by the Muse of History. They have
entitled themselves to the formal thanks OF
the Chief Executive Officer OF the State, and
Governor Stone would do a graceful and
becoming act to, in some public manner
recognize the service they have rendered
the State.

JUDGE BUTLER has been admitted to
his seat as Senator from South Carolina
That ancient commonwealth will now be
represented by Senator worthy of her.
He will be enabled to speak for himself
and people, and especially to tell what he
knows about the Hamburg affair."" in
which he and his associates have been
atrociously slandered. During the recent
debates, it was painful to observe how
Democratic Senators begged the question,
or evaded the real issue, and re-
fused to state that the blow which the
white men OF South Carolina struck
at Hamburg was a necessary meas
ure of self-defense as fully justified
and demanded as the uprising of the
whites in Mississippi, at Meridian and
Vieksburg and Clinton and other places,
when forbearance had ceased to be
virtue.

The admission of kellogg as Senator
from Louisiana is an outrage worthy OF
the palmiest days of Republican history.
1t was in direct defiance of the will Of
Louisiana. She mad elected Judge
Spoford by the Legislature which Mr..
Hayes himself had recognized as the le-
gal body. Nevertheless his partisans in
the Senate voted to seat Kellogg, who
was the creature of the Returning Board
frauds in which he was implicated, and
the choice of the bogus Legislature which
succumbed to the Democratic body and
ceased to exist after it had gone through
the forms of electing him. The Repub
lican party by connivance of the Hayes
Administration has done this wrong, and
We would like to hear what Mr.. E. j ohm
Ellis, who has been very gushing in his

The Ohio Republicans have been
drawing the color line pretty deep. The
last Legislature passed bill re-organi-
zing the militia, and horrible to tell,
it contained a provision that only
"white males" were authorized TO form
military companies in pursuance of the
act. Unmindful of its requirements two
companies of colored militia were
formed, and the Adjutant General has
disbanded them to the infEite disgust of
the colored troops who in their sinlplic-
ity thought that in the Republican
creed that there could be no such thing
as discrimination on account of race,
color or previous condition.

thought the business men of the South
"and the religious element ought to be-
"long to the Republicans, and he be-
f lieved his course would secure several
Southern States in the next Presiden-

which the South has had of ':the relIgi-

is fair inference that the lower regions
are full of the same sort. There is not
a crime in the calendar which has not

not entered into any other but the Pres
