ADAMS COUNTY.
Natchez Democrat. |

D
| The Adams County Democratic-C Conservative
Executive Committee met yesterday with al
most full attendance, at the Court House.
The roll being called, DR.. A. II. Brenham
Chairman, stated the object of the meeting to
be to discuss and suggest plan for the county
canvass. The first suggestion the subject,
made by Capt. Holmes, in favor of relega-
ting this matter to a mass meeting of the Dem
ratic-Conservative people, to be called by the
committee. Upon this motion a long discus
sion ensned, pending which another motion
was offered, by Mr.. G.. L. Tillman faVoring the
precinct plan of re-electing delegates to a new
committee. The motion of Mr.. Tillman was
finally amended, and adopted, reading as fol
lows
Resolred, That every precinct shall be emit
tied to one delegate for every fifty Democratic
| Conservative white voters, as registered in
1877, and any fractional part of the registered
Democratic-C Conservative white vote of twenty
five or exceeding, shall be entitled to one
delegate, and no precinct shall be entitled to
less than one delegate.
The following resolution, offered by Capt. r.
Holmes, adopted:
ReSOlced, That this committee suggest to the
different precincts of the Democratic Executive
Committee, no person shall be eligible who is
may hereafter become candidate for any
county or State office in the pending election
canvass, become candidate, his place shall be
filed by the committee.
A resolution was adopted suggesting to the
Democrats and Conservatives Of the various
precincts that they hold their precinct meetings
Thursday, September 4th, for the selection o
members of the new Executive Committee on
the basis provided for in the resolution first
above given, and that the persons so selected
meet at the Court House on Monday, September
8th, at eleven O'Clock A. NJ, for the purpose of
organizing.
The committee, having committed its expir-
ing act, then adjourned

SAYS the New York Tribune :

For own part we have no quarrel with
Mr. Davis; We shall have none with the
Democrats of Mississippi if they should re-
turn him to the Senate. No doubt he is their
best representative, and it is their right to put
him forward. All that we ask is that there
be no Misrepresentation or evasion in the
matter; no tricks, nor deceits, nor snap judg-
mcnts
What right has the Tribune to voice
in the matter any way? Why should
that journal presume to talk about "a
quarrel with the Democrats of Missis-
sippi if they should return Mr.. Davis
to the Senate ?" They are under no
obligations to consult the New York
Tribune, or any other outside informed
dler, as to the person they should put
forward to represent them? New York
does not ask Mississippi's consent to her
choice for Senator and why should
Mississippi consult New York-much
less the Republicans of New York whose
mouth-piece the Tribune claims to be ?
Certainly in all the land a more detesta-
bic person to Mississippians than Roscoe
Conkling could not have been found !;
but Mississippi did not presume "to
uproar the universe" because New York
in the exercise of her unchellenged
right, selected him as her representative
in the United States Senate.

Charcoal.

When DR.. Thompson was Port Physician a
West India captain told him that on approach
ing Havana in yellow fever times, he always
served out to every one his vessel table
spoonful OF pulverized charcoal in wine glass
of water three times a day, and that none of
his men were ever affected, even when yellow
fever was epidemic all around them The
hint may be worth something now.-Ex-
change.
DIR. G. K. Marshall, who has passed
through every epidemic which has
scourged Vicksburg for the last thirty
years, and through the most terrible
one that ever afflicted jackson, where
he nursed the sick and lowered around
the beds of the dying-in 1853-has
been in the constant habit of using the
same preventive. Whether his marvel
lous exemption is due to this cause or not,
we cannot say. 1t may be the means
which Providence has blessed to pre-
serve life that has abounded in good
works. iisat.i-t

The Legislative Authority Over
Corporations.

In several counties, notably Lauder
dale, the right and duty of the legisla-
tive authority to supervise railroad
corporations and regulate freights and
fares so as to prevent determinations
against local freights, is prominent
issue in the canvass. The Barry bill OF
the last session was an important step
in that direction as it applied to cotton,
the chief product of our State. In
numerous States, legislation of that
description has been tried and found
abundantly successful. In order to
produce uniformity, it may become
necessary for Congress to intervene and
pass what is known as the Regain inter-
State bill which will prevent unjust
discrimination in freights transported
through one or more States.

Honor to whom Honor Is Due.
We have been so much interested

We have been so much interested IN
the perusal of paper prepared by an
eminent physician of this State, DIR. j.
NJ. TAYLOR, of COrinth, and presented al
the late meeting of the Mississippi State
Medical Association, upon the priority
of the discovery and use of anesthesia
in surgery, that We have transferred ii
to our columns, under the impression
that it will prove interesting to the gen.
eral reader, and especially so to the fra
ternitv Of which the author is a shining
light. The object of the production is
to do justice to a worthy, but modest,
Southern man, and to aid in making
known to the world a fact which, il
seems, has been suffered to lie concealed
for many yearr-viz: that a Southern
physician, one who in ordinary parlance
might be called a Country DOCTOR was
the first to use that powerful, and we
NAV add blessed, remedial agent for
overcoming pain in performing surgical
operations, known to the professionals
as intentional an@sthesia. By default
it seems that to Northern surgeon in
Boston, ''the hub of the Universe,
the honor of the discovery has been con-
coded; and a claim in behalf Of this fic-
titious discoverer was actually presented
before Congress for large sum, and Sc
riously considered, in consideration of
its benefits to humanity, and especially
for its use in the army and navy of the
country. 1t only failed to pass by rea-
son Of quarrel among the parties in
terested in the division of the spoils.
From this paper of DR.. Taylor, which
has almost the charms of romance, we
learn that the real discoverer was Dr.
Crawford w. Long, a practitioner of
medicine in the little village of Jefer-
son, jackson county, Georgia. He died
few years ago, leaving his family in
moderate circumstances. He deserves
to have his name transmitted to poster
ity as one who did ''good by stealth and
blushed to find it fame"

From some of the negroes in custody, and
who have turned States evidence, it is learned
that the negroes had assembled for the purpass
OF protecting young negro man from being
lynched who had been incarcerated in the Jail
OF Water Valley for forcing himself and being
caught in the room of young lady of the
city the night before, as believed for the pur-
pose OF committing rape.

At Stems Creek, in Rankin county, a So
called Mountain Creek Club was organized,
chiefly by negroes and the few white men
connected with it told them ''the Democrats
had been putting wages down from year to
year, and if they were elected this time the
poor colored laborer would not get over
twenty-five cents per day next year, and if the
Democrats succeeded in eIecting a President
next year they would all be disfranchised. or
put back into slavery" And good many
other similar lies told, and things said
and done. And this has created determine
ton among the white people Of Stems Creek
which may result in measures of resolute
defence. This process or misleading an
ignorant people by malicious and designing
incendiaries, is what the Republican North
calls a political ISSUE" a race for office 1t
will be put down; with this certainty, that, if
it is DONE the Republicans will denounce it as
bulldozing and denial of the ballot, and, if it
is not, they will sneer at southern cowardice
and make more capital from its imbecility
that it is possible to do from any measures
required for self-defence. We have Hopson's

AS an important chapter in the his
tory of the Yazoo affair, we have pub
lished the solemn declaration of the
citizens of Yazoo county in mass meet
ing assembled. The proceedings were
had while H. NJ Dixon was vet alive.
He proves by his own admissions that
he was not fit person to hold the re
sponsible office of Sheriff of the county.
We need not repeat what was there
solemnly entered as the deliberate
judgment of the intelligent, Iaw-abiding,
peace-loving people of that county. The
address contains no statement that could
be denied and, assuming it to be true
in every essential, the good people of
Yazoo will stand before the world tri-
umphantly indicated. Unscrupulous
partizan defamers may say what they
willard doubtless they will give vent
to falsehood and calumny in all their
infinite variety-but, after all, truth
will assert itself, and the people of that
county, whatever falsifers and SANDER
ers may say, will carry in their bosoms
the self-sustaining consciousness that
before God and man they DID RIGHT.
