The State University.

EDITORS CLARION Having understood that
some students Of the University have been
led to believe, that the quarantine regulations
at this place would prevent all these from
attending at the next session upon the opening
OF the exercises, who live in cities and towns
which were injected with the yellow fever la-t
year, the Executive Committee have deemed
it prudent to advise all such students that
they believe that arrangements will be made
to admit them from all points where the fever
has not made its appearance at the time OF
the opening Of the exercises The session
does not begin until the Both Of September. at
which time it is confidently hoped there viii
be no reason to apprehend the spread of th,,
disease in Mississfppi Il A HIM

THE Republicans have carried Califor-
mia. There were four State tickets in the
field. The Republican ticket is headed
by George E. Perkins, President of the
Pacific Coast Steamship Company, for
Governor The Peoples party, or the
New Constitution party, otherwise call
ed the Honorable Bilks, nominated for
Governor DIR. Hugh j. Glenn of Colusa,
who is large landholder, and the
Democrats adopted Glenn, but other
wise nominated straight Democratic
ticket. The party known as Working
men, of which Denis Kearney is at the
head, nominated for Governor William
f. White. The Republicans have car
ried California in the last four Presiden-
tial elections, but it is probable the
Democrats would have succeeded in
this election, if they had nominated q
straightout ticket and fought the good
fight squarely.

THE mischief is to play in the Repub-
lican camp in Cincinnati. BY some
means a lone colored man obtained
a nomination for the Legislature, and
it caused tumultuous uproar among
the faithful who are vowing that
they will ''take no niger in theirs. "
1t is rare thing for acolored man
to be considered worthy of any higher
calling than a bootblack in the

BnIldozing of1he Worst Sort by Re-
publicans of New England
Massachusetts, was Republican Stat

Massachusetts was Republican State
at the birth Of the Radical party. It
has never failed TO be represented by
the worst class Of sectionalists and
South haters in both branches Of Con
gress. 1t is the guiding star m the
galaxy Of the latter-day Puritans.
Now, let US see what the Republicans
are doing in that State to control the
elections to keep power in their own
hands? The tale is told by the Spring
field Republican, strong Republican
paper of Massachusetts, as its name i'm
ports. We have obtained the extract
from the New York Herald, a quasi
Republican Jouarnal:
y. Y. Herald.l
The Springfield Republicans comments on
this head Will have the concurrence OF great
facts brought out BY the Wallace committee in
New England-''The plain, unvarnished truth
stands out boldly in evidence that some OF
oar Drofe8sedy best men trho are prominent manu-
tactuers practically forbid their employees from
crossing the right Of suffrage free from interference
1t is disgraceful state of affairs, but are
forced to the admission that the federal superb
employed not to keep peace at the polls bal
to keep anti-repubiican ooters array; bat these su-
peruisors instead Of preventing fraud, encouraged il
by aiding TO perseee oil opposed to the Republican
candidates. 1t is fact developed by Senator
Wallaces committee thai no matter ioho offered
Il Republican ballot II uds accepted and no g,ees-
ti0Iss asked; whereas some of the best men, so
cially and morally, and all others who were
at all active in opposition to the Republican
party acere carefully loatcIed, and their every more
dogged By paid spotters."
The proof as furnished by the above,
is that the employees of laborers in New
York will not permit them to vote at
all, unless they vote the Republican
ticket; and that the officials employed
under the federal supervisors of election
laws, employ their powers not toprotect
the purity of the ballot-box, not to Sc,
cure free vote, but to watch, spot,
and hound down Democratic voters in
exercise of the elective franchise. The
facts need no comment.

Death of Hon. r. o. Beene.
Aberdeen Examiner. I

Aberdeen Examiner
Hon. r. o. Beene, the eminent lawyer, died
at the residence of his son-in-law, Mr.
Thomas Beck, in Itawamba county ON Mon
day morning last. Col Beene was about six
ty-ive years, of age, was for series of years a
member of the State Senate and from 1855 to
1866, was District Attorney for this Judicial
District.
Ut gives US unaffected sorrow to an
nounce the death of Mr. Beene. He
bore a prominent part in the councils Of
his State at a trying time and in the
purer and better days of the common
wealth. May he rest in his peaee.)

Gen. Woodford's Statement,

Gen. Woodford told us at DeKaIb on Mon
day, that there was not word of truth
in the story that he had all those nice
plans to arrest Tilden if he (Tildenl had at
tempted coup de etat in New York and
"shoot him out of the mouth of a cannon

in the report that Secretary Thompson hac
presented him brace of pistols to carry in
his pistol pockets a precaution his pres

to Kemper county; and that he is not here &c
engage as an attorney in the prosecution OF

1t will be remembered that the re
ports in reference to Gen. Woodford's
visit to Kemper, to which exception is
taken, originated in Northern Republic

1t viii be borne in mind that mate
rial changes have been made in the
mode of empannelling United States
juries. Under the law of June Both, it is
made the duty of the United States
judge to appoint commissioner from
the leading political party opposed to
that to which the clerk of the court be-
longs. The clerk and the commissioner
are required to put 800 names in the
jury box-each to place one in the box
alternately. The judges, however, may
order that the juries be drawn from the
box used by the State authorities in the
highest courts of the State.

Reuben Davis stood IN the presence Of
honest men on last THURSDAY and said that II.
NJ. Dixon had been shot, killed, yea murdered
IN Y AGO county On last Tuesday by James A
BarksdaIe because he Dixon had declared
himself an independent candidate tor Sheriff
OF Yazoo county That Barksdale killed
Dixon good authority says l. true, but thai
Dixon Was killed Tor reasons stated lay Mr.
Davis is a faisehood and Mr. Davis knew Il
al the time he was talking He had never
heard it. or If he heard il al all, twas not
from a truthful source. We brand Mr.. Davis
as a faIsifier-one who said things IN our
courthouse last Thursday baselv false, eN-
pecting political gain to be the result
We have known Gen. Davis long and
cannot believe that he would wilfully
falsify, and hence we presume that his
declaration was made from vague report
without knowledge of the facts. The
facts have been made known and he
cannot be ignorant of them now, and
we presume he would not repeat the
statement which our esteemed contem-
pOrary is perfectly correct in denouncing
as untrue. We will be permitted to
add, however, that person is presumed
to be innocent until he is found guilty,
and Gen. Davis is too old lawyer not
to know the fact and has reminded
others of it too often to be unmindful
of it himself The gentleman who was
forced into the alteration with Dixon
and took his life in open and honorable
combat to protect his own, and from
motives even higher than those of self
defence, has, without hesitation, thrown
himself upon the laws of his country,
and it is unjust to condemn him in adj
vance. Nothing better is to be expected
of the canting hypOcrites of the North
ern Radical party who pervert every
thing that occurs III the South to their
own base, partisan purposes; but
such conduct is not to be expected OF
fair-minded Southern men.
THE New York Nation, an indepen
dent Republican journal, has this to say
in regard to the election law: IF the
Democrats should secure the Presidency
next year, besides having a majority in
both houses, we fear the power of Con
gress to regulate elections would very
rapidly cease to be an object of interest
in Republican eyes, if, indeed, it die
not become an object of positive hostil
ity. 1t is a weapon, the value of which
depends altogether on who yields it, TC
assume that it is now or would ever
become generally necessary throughout
the Union is to expect such a spread o
corruption and disorder in the severa
States as would soon put an end to free
government. The notion that there
would remain in Washington an Admin
istration pure enough to see that fail
elections were held in the several States
after the State governments had gen
orally become too debauched and EN-
feebled to perform the duty themselves
is chimera, of course. As the severa
States are, so will the Government a
