r-ecessaries o. life for many q poor
family. Now that those mills have
been seized, where is thai crust OF
bread to come from? All. there is
one known fact, that necessity
knows no law" "the cravings Of
hunger no bounds" The results,
from the present, arc predicted to
be fearful. 1t will terminate in
something Should thiugs not change
that will be ever sadly remembered
By Pascagoula. 1t will be far worse
than the Pitisburg riot; have a
darker page on Pascagoula's history
than does the yellow>fever season
What are Dur young men, who
have been employed il the lumber
business, 10 do? Can they remain
idle? There is a future for them;
there is a day ahead that to earn a
living will be to them impossible
a rainy day. 1t is in the prime OF
life hal they must prepare for that
day. There are a great number OF
our young men who have worked
and saved up a small sum with the
bright hopes Of one day, with the
aid of this amount, TO realize a
larger. Where is that proud hope,
once so bright and promising ?
That bright star SO radiantly shining
10 the free heavens Of prosperity has
become wholly covered with this
cloud, ard what are our young men
to do? Many nay say go at some
thing else? 1T is easy TO command,
but it is hard to obey Go to our
large Southern cities, and the num-
Der Of idle young men speaks we'll
for the prospects opened to a young
man. 1t is not only hopes that arc
blasted, out bare-faced starvation
show itself at many doors, far more
numerous than many Of our readers
can imagine. A stranger cannot
conceive The mouths that these mills
feed; the writer has seen and knows
of what be speaks. 1t is cur in
tention 10 writing this article to
give 70 distant patrons CT this paper
a true, brief and sad account Of
what results have and will follow
from the proceedings Of the men
sent here by our so-called free and
reformed government. 1t is not
only men In lumber that suffer, but,
in the language Of a citizen who
knows, ''many others that have
made advances on logs, etc." To
the government we a truthfully
say : Hundreds suffer from this

New Timber seiznre.-More Op.
pressi on.

Mobile Register.
The timber agents are seizing ins
discriminatory all logs along the
Pascagoula and Dog rivers 10 Mis-
sissippi and Alabama. The maps
here in the government land Office
show only 81 per cent. Of the laLds
within six miles of those rivers TO
be government lands, aud it is a
well known fact that the good tim
Der OF the lands near the rivers was
cut away previous TO the war. The
agents of the government are, how
ever, taking advantage of the pow
erty OF the log men who are not able
10 defend themselves in the courts.
and are taking all the logs that they
can find, utterly regardless Of title.
When the government of the
United Sta es overrides its own
laws, and does so to oppreSs the
people whom it should protect, how
can it expect that the laws will be
respected and obeyed by the people?
Yet the people are submitting to
these highehanded measures with a
patience that is astonishing, believ-
ing that the authorities at Washing
ton will soon check Mr.. Carter and
the other agents in their unlawful
proceedings. We hope that when
congress reassembles they will at
once send a committee to Louisiana,
Mississippi and Alabama, to inves-
tigate the doings of these timber
agents. We promise them some
rich Developments, worthy Of The
Olden time, when carpet baggers
we're in their glory, and Mr.. Hayes
Southern policy of peace vas in
augurated.

The cry Of fraud" is now being
shrieked by prominent republicans
who took an active part in the
presidential campaign and the
electoral conspiracy. We should
not wonder if Mr.. Hayes is becom-

ming to believe that a man who
fraudulently usurps the presidential
chair will have a tough time OF it
during his term.

"Scalnel,' a citizen oil THIS place
Judging from the tenor of his article
has given the STAR his views on
this subject in rather q partial
strain; tho writer, representing as
be does, this journal, visited this
home of modern Cicero and Demos
themes, where the winds even, to
some, bring inspiration from the
graves OF these orators in an aston.
ishing way, armed with a true and
impartial pen-(wait, ye night
mopers, try again your attempted
foul work of the 26th ult., it speaks
for itsel)-has gathered a few notes
trusting they will find among some
of our readers an interested party.
We have spoken to several in
fnential citizens on this subject and
find that they are mostly all opposed
to incorporation. The party .or in
corporation based their reason on
this foundation: the village, as can
be seen, needs Improvement. streets
TO open, sidewalks TO repair, etc.
The party against gives these rea-
sons a thrust by asking the ques-
tons: how is Is to be done? where
is the labor 10 come from? where
is the money 10 come from to make
our village what fancy pictures it
will be I? are we not now burdened
down with taxes? All these ques-
tions have received the consideras
ton OF many and the answers are to
unknown.

neutral, have refused. Now who's
10 gain? A question that the ma
jority and legislature can only
answer. It is with the greatest
impotence that the two parties live
waiting for the assemblage Of our
legislature. The petitions that have
been circulated for tue past week
have quite q sensation and lively
canvass. The petitions to-day stand
thus: against corporation, ITO; for,

ton, Judging from the voice Of its
leaders, have not circulated their
petition on Mr. Vancleave's resolu-
ton, as to-day the holder OF the
