\ recent New Orleans dispatch says:
Jefferson Davis, Jubal A. Early and
J. L. Paine testified in the case of the
will of Sarah A. Dorsey, who left Davis
her legatee, contested on the ground
of undue influence, which Davis ems
phatically denied. Mrs. Dorsey, he
said, believed that the confederacy
still existed; that its truths were eter-
nal and should prevail. He believed
this too, and if that was insanity, both
he and Mrs. Dorsey were crazy"
Jefferson Davis is still traitor to his
country, and it is only the mistaken
clemency of forgiving people that
saves his neck from the hangmans
rope, which he merits to-day as much
as he did twenty years ago. Broth
erly love and reconciliation" are not
so easy when traitors are still permit
ted to openly faunt their treason.

The East Portland Fndicdtor states
that last week Monday, Thos. Gully,
a farmer living near the Sandy road,
six miles back of East Portland, was
poisoned by strychnine placed in cup
of coffee. 1t is alleged that the poison
was administered by Cully's wife and
a German farm hand, to whom Mrs.
Gully had transferred her affections.
Timely medical assistance by DIR.
Raffety, saved Cutly's life. Mrs. Gully
and the German have fled to parts un-

to say of Gen. Heron: That staunch
patriot and Democrat, Andrew 5.
Heron. of Baton Rouge, who is in
the city attending the Supreme Court,
is supported by the whole Bar of his
district for one of the Justiceships of
the Supreme Court. Major Heron has
filed many political and admins
tratiye offices in our State government
with great fidelity and efficiency.
His ability and learning as a jurist,
his familiarity with the French
language, and his capacity for study
and research, are as fully recognized
by the courts and the bar, as his
political fidelity and soundness have
always been By the pople.

THE IRISH PROBLEM.

Not many months since commu
nication appeared in the N. o. Times
from an Irislman, on the subject of
the Kansas exodus. The writer sug-
cestcd that the colored labor which
was seeking other fields in the cold
climates of the North and West could
be replaced by that OF Irish immi-
grants. He alleged that he could
bring hundreds Of Irish families to
this country who were industrious and
intelligent farmers, which would cna-
bic them to learn in a short time the
mode of cultivating cane and cotton.
This necessary requirement once fully
graspcd by a race with the push and
progress of the Irish, and We have q
labming element among lis that
would grow and expand with the
country.
A fair trial has demonstrated the
fact that the cOlorcd race arc non
progressive without education, and
that they will not educate them
selves, no matter what facilities are
afforded them. History teaches that
an ignorant race cannot progress, but
must retrograde. Intelligence pro-
duces civilization and it's attendant
forces of human elevation, while the
other steadily declines amid super
stitious ideas and heathenisll practi-
ces. Now through this dark medium
the darkies have been deluded with
the idea of grand fortunes and unrc-
strained political liberties in u cline
foreign to their natures and among
a people naturally antagonistic to
their practices. They are emigrating
in large numbers, and the result will
finally be vital stroke at our COM
mercial and agricultural interests.
There is no doubt about it-they
arc going-swarming like bees tow
ards "thc land ofprom,se." The inev-
table result will be q rise in the price
of Southern staple products and &
corresponding decline in those of thu
Western producer. This is sure AZ
the rising sun. "Coming events cas-
their shadows BEFORE" is anever-fail
ing axiom, and the shadow of the exc
dus arc growing longer as the SONS Of
Africa gather near the regions of th'
West.
1t is not our purpose to point ou
and censure those political denizen
who have perpetrated this great wrong
upon the South. Our purpose is mere
ly to suggest that this is an opportun'
moment to consider the proposition
made by the Times Irish correspon
dent. The sad condition of the peo
pie in Ireland to-day convince lis tha
they would be more than willing tt
leave country that affords them onl,
want and oppression. They labo

HOMICIDE.

A difficulty occurred in the New
Hope ncighborhood on Thursday last,
which resulted in the killing of Il
ncgro-EdwarM Buckley, by Mr.. John
Daniels, who it seems was justified
as he came in Immediately and
delivered himself to the authorities.
1t seems that the boy wanted to
leave the wagon that was loaded
with cotton, and OH the way to the
gin. Mr.. Daniels insisted upon his
going with him, aud that if he did not
he would discharge him. Harsh words
ensued, when Edward opened his
knife and started at Daniels with a
threat ofkilling him, when Daniels
drew q pistol from his pocket and
shot him in the head.
Mr.. Daniels is of II good family,
raised by pionsparentsand with good,
moral associates, n young man OF
good habits, and we are satisfied that
he was iiustiffable in doing what he
did-as he says he acted only in self
defense.
Since writing the above, upon the
preliminary examination Of Mr..
Daniels, the following testimony was
elected, from a witness upon the part
of the State and an eyewitness. They
were hauling cotton to the gin, and
Daniels wanted Edward to 60 with
the wagon to assist in pushing ur
hills, and scotching the wagon, as the
team was backing. Edward Buckley
said he was a free man, lived in u free
country, and generally done as he
d-dplease. Wordsensued, ,wbereuro'
Buckley drew a knife that he lao
borrowed from Daniels the pay before
while eating dinner. on the road tt
the gin, advancing on Daniels
threatening to cut his throat "fron
ear to ear" Mr.. Daniels retreatee
some distance, Edward still advancin:
with open knife-seeing his determ
ination to kill him Mr.. Daniels drew
his pistol and shot him through tn
hcad.-Buckley was shot about 8 A
NJ, aud lived in this condition till lat
in the evening. After the examination
of the witnesses Mr.. Daniels wa
acquitted.-Sabine Indew.

WHO WILL GOV. WILT APPOINT ?

On the first page of to-day's CAPl-
ToLrAN will be found u communica-
ton from that never-failing Demo
cratic journal, thatPatriot- Democrat,
entitled "The Supreme Judgeship."
The writer adopts the nom de plume
of a." and the Democrat seems to
have specially endorsed his senh-
ments by llonoring them with its edi-
torial space. After q sensible and
timely prelude concerning the 'mpor-
tance to the State aud our people ola
proper disposition of the Supreme
Judgesl,ip, lie suggests the name Of
our honored fellow citizen Gen. A. $.
Heron as one who would sustain the
honor and dignity Of theposition, con-
cluding with n well-merited tribute
to his talents and faithful sarAices in
the past. Indeed the article embraces
all the arguments that could bc
brought to bcar-it was "much in
e"-giving the General q hand
some introduction into the field.
No one can deny the fact that Gen.
Heron is Justly entitled to the high
compliments paid him. With a heart
kind and generous, apulsethat throbs
with unselfish vigOr for the welfare OF
his people, none but the most corrupt
nature can find a word of censure for
him. His every act, his every thought
seems only to show the self-sacrificing
patriotism with which he walks
through life. Through war, strife,
pestilence and Radical usurpation he
has stood the fiery test until mature
age and wisdom have clothed bis
name in the bright habiliments of fame
and nobility. Trial has proven his
worth and integrity as a man, while
constant practice as a luwycr and
membership in three Constitutional
ConyentonsOfthis State afford him the
necessary experience to understand
the most intricate workings of the law
No better man can be found, moi
one who would give greater satisfac
ton to the people. They honor aDt
revere him for his purity of character
and unassuming manners, and woul'
feel a greater degree of confidence il

sistence, while the adverse hand Of
fate holds them subject to the despo-
tis,n of u foreign power. They would
gladly hail the day Of their deliver
ance from the tyranical British land
lord system. Only give them the
means, and they would flock to this
country hy the thousands.
There is no sense in the assertion
that competent white labor can't
stand the climate in our great South
west. It is false. Experience dem
onstrates its falsity in every nook and
corner Of the Mississippi Valley
here, there, everywhere! The lives
of our field wo,kmen are as long as
those of any farming country in the
world, and signs Of thrift are to be
seen wherever you find small farm
owned and managed by IN intelligent
planter.
We have the greatest country in
the world-tl,e richest soil, which
pays the largest profits for labor ex-
pended, The employment Of igno-
rant, non progressive labor has stul-
tilted our natural advantages. No
good reasoning or logical mind will
deny this. We want intelligent Ia
Dor. The Irish will supply it. They
are intelligent, industrious, honest
and faithful. They can be relied on.
Where the negro has displayed intel
ligence in this country, he has
made money by both hiring his
time or working on shares, as the cat
tie, hogs, horses, sheep and houses and
lots some have recently sold at ter
rible sacrifice, will attest. They started
after the war with nothing, and why
can't the Irish accomplish the same
thing7 They can, and will, if givc'
half the chance afforded the darkcy.
Then, they will save their earnings
and with the ambition Of elevatinI
their posterity, will strive to becom
landlords themselves. And the en
r of it all will be, there will always b
y GOOD market for lands that can n0'
hardly be given away.
