i A GOOD POINT.
i Secretary Evarts made . strong poiu
in his Cooper institute speech on th
northern upholders of the shotgu
policy. Speaking of the verdict in "a
ChisOlm case, and the Democratic clair
that it was rendered BY fair jury, b
went on to say that this vas undoubted
" the truth. The jury fairly repre-
sented the public sentiment Of thei
locality, and their verdict simply echoe,
the popular opinion that the murderer
of Chis0lm had done nothing Mhiol
deserved punishment. This Il Just 8
true of the Yasoo murder. Publ,
sentiment in Miaissppi sustains tn,
shotgun despotiam, and gives proof tha'
it does BY allowing the guilty persons x
go unmolested. Lamar keeps silent q
defere ace to this opinion, while Single

TWO BAR'Ls.
An inspired disciple of reform In
Kentucky has hit upon . brilliant
ievice for strengthening the Democratic
.icket next year. The two doubtful
states being New York and Indiana, be
says the candidates must come from
them. To New York he gives the first
place, and names - his choice Tilden.
Hendricks can't have the second, and
Mel Donald won't do. The man for it /,

A1seIssIPPI SENTIMENT.
Mr.. Congressman Singleton, of Mis-
sissippi. who IL . candidate for election
to the United States senate, has been
heard from on the YaSoo question. He
made q speech at Yasoo City ON the llth
inst. in the course Of which he "ind0rsed
tho incident of the 25th Of July" a. the
letter mildly states it. That incident T"
was the depositing of . load of buckshot
In the back of Henry n. Dixon. And
yet the country is assured by the north
ern allies of the shotgun Democracy
that the best citizens Of Mississippi do
not approve of political assassination.
Hence the question, who are the best
citizens of Misaissippis If Mr.. Con.
gressman Singleton, who aspires to .
seat In the national senate, and who
is understood TO be strongly supported
In his aspirations, II not one Of
the best citizens, who IL! Do mot the

Mississippi civilization, and that his
approval of the Yazoo assassination indi-

win the favor of the Dominant pert of
