The Meridian Mercury says Mr..
Walking, the mayor of Enterprise,
was indicted at the last term of the
circuit court of Clark county for
extOrtiOn in taking more fees than
allowed by law. A petition has
been sent to the governor asking a
remission of the penalty of the
statute making a removal from
Office upon conviction, upon the
ground that the defendant violated
the law unintentionally. 1t is well
that county as well as municipal
officers should keep within the
bounds of the law upon this subject.

LUMBER IN

From the wood circular and
prices current of Messrs. Robert
Coltart s. Co., of Liverpool, Eng,
we make the following extracts:
A better feeling has manifested itself in
our market during the past month, and
the impression prevails that We rave seen
the worst of the bad times; sellers are
firmer, while stocks abroad are not very
abundant, and buyers find that cargoes, at
the low prices lately prevailing, are not
now easily obtainable. At the SAINT time
there is no prospect of any large cOnsump-
tive demand from the country for some
time to come, and this will delay any ms-
torial rise in values. The strike which
took place among the timber laborers dur
ing the month threatened at one time to
interfere with the working of the trade,
but h~aving..soon collapsed, the interruption
produced little effect.
United States, etc.-There has been q fair
consumption of pitch pine during the
month, and the stock now held is less than
at the corresponding time last year. There
are no sales to report, and sellers are not
anxious to make fresh contracts. Pitch
pine flooring is selling at about Els per
standard. United States slaves are little
inquired for, and prices rule very low

The so-called Yazoo plan has
received severe censure from the
Northern stalwart as also from the
Southern Dolly Warden, but here
is what the st. Louis Republican has
to say upon the subject; "How much
worse is the sYazOOism' of Mis-
sissippi, which is a mere creature
of fever.heated politics, than the
cold blooded diabolism that blows
up a hotel with gunpowder at
Westerville, Ohio, simply because
the proprietor dispenses wine and
beer over his bar? AS to the re-
spective civilizations that of MIS-.
sissippi is to be preferred by an
overwhelming majority"

Grants Arrival.

San francisco, September 21.-
Upon the arrival of steamer City
of Toxic at her wharf last evening,
Gen. Grant was received by the
governor and staff, the city officials
and executive committee, and vel.
coined by Mayor Bryant in a brief
speech. He then took q carriage
aud drove to the Palace Hotel, at
the head of an immense procession
and accompanied by a great
crowd.
Bonfires blazed at the street cor.
ners. Illuminations lit up every
window, and the glare of Roman
candles and electric lights made
the broad thoroughtare bright as
day. Uuder a continuous archway
of flags, banners and festooned
draperies, the procession moved up
Market street to Montgomery
street, and turned down the latter
street. Crowds blocked the side
walks. Cheer after Icheer rolled
along the whole line of march, and
almost drowned the martial strains
of nemerous bands.
On arrival at Market street, the
procession moving up a few blocks
cOuntermarched to the Palace HO-
tel. Here a magnificent arch for.
ty feet in height spanned New
Montgomery street, blazoned with
national colors and bearing the
inscription "Welcome to Grant,
AT this point the carnage con.
tanning the general was drawn up
while the procession marched in
review, cheer after cheer rendiDg
the air as division after division
passed by. On conclusion of the
review the various organizations
were dismissed, and General Grant
was conducted to his quarters in
the Palace Hotel, which had been
specially prepared and furnished
for his reception.

Americans who have faith in self
government and cherish preference
for republican institutions have very
generally failed to join in the British
paroxysms of grief over tho death Of
the young Prince Imperial: The truth
is that Prince Louis, In going to Zu-
luland and asking for an adventure, |"
took all the hazards of battle in
a savage country, and he was slain as
savagos slay. He was dear to his
mother and his friends, Of course. and
they have properly mourned HIM; but
the world at large has no more rea-
son to lament his loss than that of the
young peasant soldiers whs perished
in the grass at his side. Indeed, the
human race is probably a gamer from
his death. He was living on wopsy
flched from the industrious millions
of France. and his only object in life
was to commit an imperial burglary
and vault to power above the ruins of
self.government. His removal has
made the republic stronger and has
weakened every throne in Europe. II
is we'll known that tie sympathy of
Victoria for Eugene was very cordial
and deep, and that she hoped to live
to see the French Republic upset and
the Empire re. established, with Louis
as the royal brother Of Albert Ed
ward; but there would seem to be no
reason why any Americans, except
suobs and fuukies of an extreme
type, should wish this wicked conspi-
racy to succeed Frank Lesis's H.

Advice for ,he sick Room.

Nothing is easier to an expert
epccd nurse or more difficult to an in
experienced one than to change the
bed linen witha person in bed. Every
thing that will DO required must be at
hand, properly aired, before beginning.
Untuck the lower sheet and cross
sheet and push them toward tho mid.
Gle Of the bed. Have sheet ready
folded or rolled the long way, and lay
it on the mattress, unfolding it enough
to tuck it in at the side. Have the
cross sheet prepared as described be.
fore, and roll it also, layingi it over the
under ons and tucking it in, keeping
the unused portion Of both still rolled.
Move the patient over to the side thus
prepared tor him; the soiled sheets can
then be drawn away, tie clean ones
completely unrollcd and tucked in on
the other side. The coverings need
not DO removed while this is being
done; they can be pulled out iyom the
foot of the bedstead and kept wrap
ped around the patient. To change
the upper sheet take off the spread
and lay the clean sheet over the blan-
kets, securing the upper edge to the
bed with couple of pins; standing at
the foot, draw out the blankets and
soiled sheet, replace the former and
put on the spread. lastly change the
pillow cases. Scribner. a.. .H.
