Z n migration uIss IN ward.

The immigration movement seems to
have fairly set in in North Mississippi.
Why don't our people take some steps
to induce immigration to this part of
the State? Now that the tide is flow
ing Southwark, immigration can BE-
drawn here if u people would do any
thing to induce it. There are thousands
of acres of land in this and surrounding
counties that landlords could afford to
sell for IL nominal sum to Industrious,
working Western people, anl we hope
to see some efforts made to lay the a1-
vantages of this section before the
Indiana emigrants.l
The following letter addressed to the
Holly Springs South, will show what
proportions the immigration movement

Good Appointment..

Since the assembling OF the Legisla-
ture Gov. Stone has shown a great de
sire to re-appoint Radicalsg to Office.
Notwithstanding the known fact that
the State has many competent, worthy
Democrats, ready aud willing to serve
their country in whatever capacity they
may be- assigned. We have no pa.
tience with the Governors Radical in
fatuation. The State is in Democratic
hands, and there is no sense in reward
Nng our late enemies with Office. The
Legislature has. rebuked the Governor
several times by refusing to confirm his
Radical appointees, but the next time
m appointment was to be made he
would send in another Radical for con
irmation. Such ~tenacitv of purpose
would be admired in a bulldog, but 1t
is not becoming in n Governor. The
Governor seems to think he is boss Of
the ring. and won't be weaned from his
Radical admirers or -intimidattd by 80
small a thing as a State Senate.
Some weeks ago the Governor sen:
in the name~of H. MusgroveA for con,
irmation to some inferior position, but
the Democratic Senate shelved the ap
poiutee, and said mo Radical need ap-
! ply" The Governor was undaunted,
and resolved to do as he pleased and,
regardless of the opposition raised to
Mr.. Simrall IA Supreme Court Judge.
ne vas re appointed s.and sent to the
Senate for con firmation. That wise
body Of Solnns heaved q sigh of dis
gust, looked ut Que another il surprise,
and qnietly showed Mr.. Simrall off INTO
the waste basket. The Governor felt like
swearing as did the army in Flanders,
Int, it rs said. was not overcome, aud
had made up his mind TO ask the Sen
ate to confirm DR.. Compton as Super
intendeut of the Asylum. The Senate
had said it would do nothing of the
kind, and DR.. Compton, seeing that the
affectionate Governor would slaughter
him, declined to be offered up as a
sacrifice upon the altar Of his country,
which, in company with the balance OF
the Radical horde, he had helped to
ruin. The Doctor wrote q card dec,in-
Ing theappointment, aud. as there WIS no
other competent Radical in the State to
honor with the position, the Governor
gave it to DR.. Mitchell, Of Jackson.
We learn the appointment is a good
one. if the Governor did not want to
make it. As Mr.. Simrall conld not go
through the Senate. Gen. George, one
Of the most profound %jnrists in the
South, was confirmed as the second
choice of our Chief Executive rs Judge
of the Supreme Court. 1t would
have been impossible to have found a
better man for the place. E
We wait for the Governors next ap
pointment. 3 H"I
