and other pluchbeck prophets we're

not bring an immediate return with

tribate to our fl lend Col. Singleton,
who seems to have captivated all
who heard him, in his late trip

that his words are from the depths
of heart full of love for his peo.

termine to hold fast to the doctrines
of their constitutional fathers, there
is no one who will better represent

made upon this community the
same Impression which has always
followed him wherever he opens his
lips, that be is one of the truest and

I fail to see how, upon any just

The voting negroes of Lauderdaie
county have come to be too many
or too few for the health oil our
politics. Their relative strength,
as compared with the voting whites
ia not enough to make q menace to
drive the whites together, hut quite
enough to make so much balance
of power as to always tempt the
whites to division and ordinarily to
give success i'll elections to those
who seek their votes. As, in our
experience since the negroes were
enfranchised. the sorriest White
men seek them, and the negroes by
an invariable rule IN their natures
vote for the shabblest white man
that offers, it results inevitably, I'M
less the white men of the county
prove to be more generally virtuOus
than they appear now to be, our
better men in future will not fill our
Offices. The counties with pre-
ponderance of negro votes will gen
orally fare better, as in Yazoo for
instance. Ia such counties the in
telligent whites are forced to stand
close together, and by reason of
their unanimity can elect better
men. The late foolish attempt to
vote the negro in this county has
proven to be a faIlure-they will
vote for q Republican President
next year all the same. The true
plan is for the Intelligent, good aud
true white meu of the county to
stand close together, nominate their
best men for Office and elect them,
as they can, and leave the .negsO
alone and if any white man at
tempts to use the negroes as II

A GUSHING Governor

Gov Hoyt has discredited the
reputation for pretty good common
sense which the public was dispos>
ed to concede to him for some of luis
official acts, by the telegram sent to
a Chicago paper which asked for
tributes from public men 10 the ex-
president now swinging round the
circle. At best, such manufactured
compliments, furnished to order and
lacking all spontaniety, verc of not
much account, aud we incline to ap-
plaud the Southern governors who
declined to respond to tho iriespon-
sible demands of Bohemian cutter.
prise. But HOyt bit at the bait
thrown out; he bit hard. This is
the dispatch he sent to the Chicago
editor:
HARRISBURG, Pa. Nov. 1.-THE
people of Pennsylvania note with
pleasure the completion OF the cir
cult around the globe by General
Grant. On his second round, by
their acclaim, they will arrest him
here on a clap" and until in 1881
he shall inaugurate as the chief
magistrate of . nation, the full pur-
pose of a free people, and in 1885,
go, 600, 900 of us will bid him Sod
speed to this fulfillment Of a per>
feet career"
HENRY M. HoYT,
Governor of Pennsylvania.
Its rather dorsey tone was, no
doubt, intended as compliment to
Grant. 1t was not enough for HOyt
10 join in the clamOr CT his party
for a third term ; he starts the boom
of a life tenure for Grant, and an
ticipates what has been declared by
people pronounced unduly appre-
hensivc to be the logical sequence
OF Grants election to third term,
viz that he will never leave the
White House alive. HOyt does not
foreshadow goodbye to Grant
in 1885, but Good speed"-on his
"fourth round probably. If in
1881. why not in 1889? 1t is in or
der for somebody to see HOyt and
