Burning Of Barn in Mississippi An

Incendiary,
Especial to the Democrat.l

STARKvILLE, Miss, July 2.-Your readers
will remember that special telegram from
here announced the burning of q large barn,
on the twenty fourth Of May last, by an in
cendlary-the property Of Major Jordan
Moore and Of the arrest. committal and
lynching Of the incendiaries. We now
have to chronicle the burning Of a
barn, with all of it's contents, belong
ing to Mr.. W. D. Askew, q well-to-do planter
living eight miles east of this place, this
morning at O'Clock. Mr.. Askew thinks it
is a negro, Alex. Fox, with whom he had
some difficulty last spring, and who after
ward waylaid him in the field for the
purpose Of killing him.. Every effort is be-
Ing made to apprehend the criminal, who,
II caught, will, it ID hoped not meet with the
fate Of Porter and Spencer, but meet the ends
of the law. ABBEY.

small to venture an attack, although its posi-

numbers, can dlslodge them. At various

and thoroughly defended, while the Peruvian
preparations are going forward, with the
main force OF her arms many miles distant
from her capital.
It ID said the Chilians have resolved to
carry the war into the very heart OF the
country and attack Lima It Is probable, as
over dozen transports are at Antafogasta,

about $4,000 Dhilian troops to some Peruvian
city, either Iquique or Lima. but the proba-
h1lities are Ii is' the latter. A landing can
easily be effected, and while the attack is
making on the capital, ample occupation Will
be afforded to The forts ln gallao by the Chill

prevent the possibility OF bringing reinforee-
Inents from any quarter to relieve the be-

D. T. Corbin, Again.

This Radical carpct-bagger, who
claimed to have been elected Senator
10 represent lie State OF South Caro-
lima in the United States Congress
and who has hccn hanging around
the Senate chamber for The last two
years as contcslant for n scat which
Gen. NJ. G. Butler has occupied since
November 1877, cones up<bcforc the
public, We hope, for the last time.
Corbin docs not present himself in
the usual character or Radical, or
Of United States Senator, but as n
Kind of scmi-bcggar at the door of the
Senate. lie is not eXorbitant in his
demands, but like the modern bcggar
he is persistent; and he is not unrea-
sonable in his memorial, but after
The fashion of the old State House
petitioners, lie wants onl,,. his actual
expenses paid. .Corbin says these
amount to, somewhere between SILL
900 and $4,000, but considering the
hard times, he would only ask to he
paid The very reasonable, sum ofslO,
900 for little less than two years per-
sonal expenses. Some of the, Sena-
tors could not see it in this light, but
the humane Republicans did; and
after two ill-timed efforts TO reduce
the amount were made, and failed,
the Senate voted to donate D. r. Cor
bin the f' moderate, sum of $4,000.
Well its happy riddapcc even at
that price. ,

Hon. Jefferson Davis, .

The United States Senate has been
guilty Of another oS.'its little acts $ in
attempting to degrade the President
OF the late Confederacy by excluding
him from the pension list of The
Mexican veterans. Not n soldier OF
that war perpaps did more for its
success and ultimate results .han
Mr.. Davis. Yet occupying the posi-
ton he does as. the representative
man Of the late Conrederncy, he
would not have received pension if
voted TO him, and the Senate knew
this. AS an act of spite this vote has
no parallel, but rs ain act with a
double meaning it is simply contemp-
tiblc; one to degrade Mr.. Davis and
the other to insult the South. Mr..
Davis career is already Il part of the
history of this country, but as great
as his fame may be, such acts TO
make him q martyr, will but increase

was violation Of a treaty made with

appearance of political trickery, got
ten up to subserve clectioneering pur-
poses. Whether this eastern element
brings TO bear an evil influence on
society or whether it is an incubus
upon the labor system Of our Western
country, are questions which might
