The Census.

The Republicans made very imper-
feet census Of the South in 1870 for
party purposes, and they are trying to
yitiate the Federal census this year for
the same purpose. But fortunately the
census business of 1850, rs in 1870, was
for the most part in Republican hands.
Two of the three supervisors in Missis-
sippi, which shows as large gains i'll popu-
Iation a. any other Southern State except
Texas, are Republicans, Messrs. Gibbs
and Bynum, and they could have had
no motive to permit or conniYe at
fraudulent returns to the prejudice of
their own party The other supervisor,
Col YIN. Handy, made it a point, to
our certain knowledge, to appoint emu
merators of known integrity and capacity,
and as in the case OF the appointees of
the other supervisors, they lave done
their work faithfully and well. At least
there is no evidence TO the contrary
and in the absence Of such evidence, it
is unjust TO impute wrong-doing. The
truth Is, the Republican leaders Of the
North are disappointed at the failure of
their hopes to obtain n sectional advan-
tage from the census, and they are giving
way to their passions.

/ For The CLARIoS-J

A resolution Is pending before the Board
IF Trade of this city, to submit TO Vo'e d
500 ooo stock subscription to this Railroad
and few words on the subject might n0'
be amiss; ~.
II we subscribe to this Railroad, TINS
should be the only way to do it, as In no
other wav. can the burden be equally as
tributed among all the citizen propert!
holders and the subscription money ana
interest in case the railway DIVIDENDS ala
not suffice to pay same,) would then De
collected from the property interested pro
rata
1t would be unjust to expect iudlvldual
citizens to do the subscribing, when all are
equally interested in the increased business
values and prosperity which may accrue
from the building of said road.
It is not intended to make any subscrlP-
ton. unless Yazoo City and her citizens 90
their part, and the building OF the road as
sured. In other words, no road, no sub
scription.
presume it would be useless to tell our
citizens what they know 50 well already
that this road would be of inealcuiaole
benefit TO the city, increasing largely the
value and amount of real and personal pro-
pertv. and every man is ready and willing
TO share in the substantial profits that the
great Yazoo Delta will pour into the lap OF
our city when the flood gates are opened IN
this direction by the Yazoo City Railroad.
It is estimated that this road would bring
more additional cotton and trade to THIS
place than we now have. AT small esti-
mate this railroad WILL in five years, raise
our assessment from Sl,S00,0OO to S2,50O,-
600, or, we shall invest 100000 for sure
return of 100000 at least.
But, laying aside the commercial benefits
and the fact that this will assure us in the
business boom now commencing, and be
chief in making a city out of our small
town, the investment will pay and our
800, 600 will not be a gift but legitimate
investment, which has been seriously con-
sidered by several capitalists, and upon the
dividends of which we may safely count to /
pay the interest on our issued bonds.
We all know that foreign capital cannot
be induced to go into new enterprises in |
this country, and in fact the funds have
been refused this Railroad in New York
without looking at the papers, on the ground /
that capitalists wanted nothing south of the
Ohio river. Therefore We must help our
selves
We must make up our minds to assist
progress by pushing vigorously with our
voices, hands and pockets, or we must move
o some other place where we can share the
benefits of the efforts of others-as surely,
f we don't improve, we must go backward,
gradually being absorbed by our more enter
)risng neighbors until the State offices and
Institutions will leave us in disgust and we
axe rank with other dead towns.

Kemper County.

! The Democracy of Kemper, under
the Craftsmanship of Capt. j. H. Duke,
aided by j. H. Neville, Esq, of the
State Committee, have entered upon the
work OF the canvass. with vigor. The
mass meeting and barbecue at Brittains
Well, near DeKalb, on the 18th, was
attended by from 1000 to 1000 per
sons. 1t was an immense gathering,
and success In every particular. The
Democracy in this canvass are present
ing a united front There is not a sign
of division among them. The writer
had the pleasure of meeting many old
friends and making the acquaintance Of
many new ones, and of receiving from
all, the assurance that the divisions
which have existed among the Democ-
racy of the county, would be buried
henceforth. The speeches of Hon.
Fred. Barry, elector for the State at
large, and General Lowry, were all that
the OCCASION required-argumentative,
acknowledgement, and rousing. 1t
was a good day for good cause.

THE ROADLAM.

Under the new Code, in the main, differ
very little from that contained in the Cod
of 1871. All male persons over the age Q
eighteen, and under the age of sixty years
are liable TO road duty, except the blind
deaf and dumb, and persons disabled b,
disease or loss of limb. students or teacher
in any college or school, and minister of th,
gospel in charge of churches.
/ 1t will be seen that the number OF persons
/ liable to work the roads is increased PLY
sicians are not exempt, nor are State, county
or town officers. In fact all are liable except
those persons above enumerated. By the
t Code of 1871, persons over fifty years OF age
are exempt.
All the horses, wagons, implements, etc
! of persons exempt from road duty shall b,
liable TO be used on the road. Where s
person has more than one horse, mule OF
other thing required for use, not more that
half of such things shall be demanded at
one time
Section 1850 OF the Code of 1871 is
/ amended by inserting "shalr' in lieu OF
may in the third line, thus making il
imperative on the road overseer to order
out the hands to put in repair any road OF
bridge which has become dangerous or unfit
for travellers, though they may have already
worked ten days.
The Board of Supervisors may specify
the bridges to be built, aud the hills to be
cut down, or other special work to be done
on the road by the labor of the hands
assigned thereto or of some of them and
the overseer of the road, being notified
thereof and having sufficient labor therefor
who shall fail to have such work done, shall
on conviction, Re liable to 4 fine Of one
hundred dollars" New Code, S62
This excellent provision gives the Board
authority to have important work done
which the overseer may be disposed to neg
lect. 1t was particularly thoughtful TO
mention the cutting down of hills, Tor it
seems that road overseers have never con-
sidered such work coming within the
line of their duty. On roads that are con-
stantly used, and which have been used for
many years, nothing is more common than
to see short steep hills that could be cut
down III few hours.
Any person liable, may pay at the rate
of one dollar per day in lieu of work on the
road.
Section 2374 of the Code 1871, in relation
to bridges over streams constituting the di-
viding line between different counties, is
amended by inserting the following "and
if the Board of Supervisors of one of the
counties shall refuse to join in such agree
ment, the other may construct the bridge,
and have exclusive control of it and charge
toll thereon against all citizens of the coun-
ty not joining in the building" New Code, |
sos.
Subject to these amendments, and some
few others of small moment, the entire text
If the Code of 1871 (chapter 53) is adopted
n the new Code.
There can be no question but that we
nave a good road law. If those entrusted
With its execution will only half way dis
harge their duties, we will have better
Dads in Mississippi than ever before.

The Hancock sherman Letters.

The balance of the famous correspon.
dence between Gems Hancock and Sher-
man will be found in another column.
These letters throw additional light on
the subject to which the correspondence
relates, but reveal no material issue be-
tween the two military chieftians The
second letter Of GeR. Hancock shows
tina he believed Mr.. Tilden was elected,
and it shows that the soldier had q
clearer insight of the workings of the
Electoral Commission than the Demo-
cratic statesman who aided in framing
it. Said he: 81 have considered Mr..
Tilden's chances impregnable. Now it
seems that Mr.. Hayes has something
more than an equal chance" This is
the way the soldier saw it; and if the
Democratic leaders had been gifted
with equal wisdom, the presumption is
they would have avoided the rock
upon which the hopes of the country
for = change of administration were
wrecked, for time at least.
The concluding letter of Gen. Sher-
in which be speaks of returning
the troops to the posts from which they
had been detached, pending the Presi-
Dental controversy, shows the purpose

How Gen. Hancock's Order Aroused
the Ire of the Republican Partisans.

; Gen. Hancock's Order, announcing to
: the people Of Louisiana and Texas, that
the time had come for the civil author
ity to resume its proper sway, and for
the people to take charge of their own
State Governments, and that they should
Il be protected in the exercise Of the rights
that belonged to them, called down upon
his head the savage invectives Of Sum
ner. Morton, Blaine, Garfield, and all
that tribe of bloody proscriptionists,
whose brutal passions had been aroused.
/ They assailed him in every imaginable
FORM Garfield, the present Republi-
can candidate for the Presidency, was
foremost in making these assaults
Within six weeks after the Order was
written, he introduced bill to drop
Gen Hancock from the roll of officers,
because he issued the Order. The bill
was entitled AN Act to reduce and inn
prove the military establishment by dis
charging one Major-GeneraI." 1t pro
vided that the Major-General who was
last commissioned should be dropped, |
and that the bill should take effect i'm
mediately Such was the base conspi- |
racy that Garfield engaged in to throttle |
the voice Of constitutional liberty, and |
to punish Hancock for being a patriot.
As soon as the bill was read, Garfield /
said he wished it acted on the next
morning The popularity of Hancock,
was, however, a shield against the out
rage. The Republican leaders feared to
press so direct a measure. They there
fore abandoned that direct assault and
resorted to a flank movement. They
passed a substituted measure making
Grant the head Of the army, and re-
quirine Hancock 10 obey him, rather
than President johnson, who, by the
is the Commander-in-
Chief and head Of the Army. Such
was Garield's action in that matter.
The record will be found in the Con
gressional Globe, Of january Is, 1868.
His course was dictated by bitter par
tisanship, in subserviency to which he
cast aside all gratitude, all patriotic i'm
pulse, and trampled under foot those
constitutional provisions which he had
sworn to support
