Senator Stewards Bill 10 Prevent Cruel.
ty to Animals.
West Point Echo.

West Point Echo
A bill has been introduced in the Legis.
ature TO prevent cruelty TO animals. There
is no country in the world no much in need
Of such law, and the rigid enforcement Of
it, rs this. The class Of people dealing with
stock whose natural instincts are british,
should have rigid law to enforce humane
treatment to dumb brutcs Mr. Bergh, the
kind.hearted man Of New York, some ten
or twelve years 'ago, had such law passed
by the Legislature of New York, aud then
organized, in the city Of New York, a socie.
ty 10 prevent cruelty TO animals, and erected
one Of the handsomest buildings in the city
for this society. In his humane work he
has spared no one from the rigid enforce
ment of the law--the high and the low, the
rich and the poor, have had to pay the PEN
alties Of the law, under his enforcement OF
IT, Street car companies, large corporations,
WIVES h....,,. eds ur horses are required for
business, have found that they will not be
spared by him, He reports any man for
ill-treatment to stock-driving or riding
poor animals, whipping them or overlooking
them, and by the lash force them to draw
the load under the strain Of every muscle,
until their blood are almost bursted.
This is what is termed cruelty to animals
and how often do we see it every day of our
lives, and take no notice of it; and it is one
of the great causes of the present impover-
ishment OF our country, If the money was
in the hands of the people, which has been
paid out for mules to the West by the in.
humane treatment of the laborers of this
country, the South would be in a good CON
dition to-day.
Let it become every mans buiness to re-
port cruelty to animals and you will have
good stock in the country.

The New Orleans and Meridian Railroad
Rediyiyus.

n. Q, City Item.
A letter written by Prof. Ed. Fontainc,
and recently published in the Meridian
News, setting forth the great commercial
Importance of n line of railroad extending
from Meridian to New Orleans, appears TO
have attracted considerable attention all
along the proposed route. The Professor
yesterday received communication from
W. H. Hardy, ESQ., Of Meridian, which
mentions the organization Of a company in
1871 for the purpose of constructing the
road in question, Mr. Hardy states that
Gen. Longstreet was president and Mr. G..
Ingram secretary of the company, and that
steps will be taken at an early day to revive
the organization, A complete survey was
made and Mr., Hardy, who is now in DOS.
session OF the map and profile thereof seems
very anxious that new departure may be
taken and the work prosecuted to a success.
full issue.
We have before us a report on the ad-
vantages and connections of the New Orleans
and Northeastern Railroad and the coal
and iron of Alabama, etc, as a source of
traffic for the line The inducements for
its construction were |, That it afforded n
cheap and expeditions outlet for the nhab.
itants of New Orleans. .. That it shortened
the distance between New Orleans and New
York fully seventy-four miles, as compared
with any other line. 3, That it afforded d.
rect transportation from the coal and iron
regions of Alabama, These advantages are
all specifically elaborated in the report before
us.
If the Importance of the road was appar-
ent in 1871, it should be infinitely more 50
now. Within few years the iron. coal and
marble deposits of Alabama, as well as 9TH
er valuable minerals, have attracted large
measure of attention: consequently all the
reasons for building the road nine years ago
exist to-day in more emphatic shape.
We some time since called attention to
this matter, and will continue to do so until
practical men take hold of the enterprise
and make it what it should be.

"Retrenchment."

In 1876 the cry Of an overtaxed and over
burtheneJ people was "retrenchment and re-
FORM Then, the people of Mississippi were
laboring under a weight of oppression that
would have justified revolution, had relief
been accessible in no other way But il was,
and manfully they seized it, and brought
down the oppressors and cleared away the OPP
pressions, Under that relief we have inn
proved, until we are on the eve Of prosperity,
The dark financial clouds, which overriding
our political sky are breaking away, and il
good enough is let alone it may not be long
before those gloomy times will be remembered
enly as the past
To 20 on retrenching and reforming when
we are now standing on q basis of economy
may make of great virtue a decided evil, a
great benefit decided injury. The complaints
now with some of the Offices, are, that they
hardly justify man of established oharac-
ter and business capacities to hold them, and
the Legislature should be slow to put these
great public trusts below the ambition of
such men.
Surely no man familiar with the pay ofthe
Circuit and Chancery Clerks, in some Of the
best counties of the State, would cut down the
fees arising theretrom to lower scale with
out imperiling the ends he wishes to accom-
plish With the fees of the Circuit Clerk in
many of the counties as they now stand, no
young man of high business capacity would
seek them,
Really, it would be for the best interests of
the people, rather to increase than diminish
them and yet it is reported that the fees on
marriage license are to be clipped from
three to two dollars, II it is to be done in
the interest of marriagable people it would be
best to raise them beyond his reach entirely:
for if he cannot pay that much for the sake of
establishing family relations, it would be bet
ter for him, and his family, too hat they were
ignored altogether, and he be allowed to run
awhile longer upon the green fields of single
hlessedness. The man that is too poor to pay
this for the lifetime partnership with wo-
man, will find il q company fraught with
many expenses. TO which, at the beginning, he
is stranger, laying aside all fears of living
responsibilities in the future.
Reducing the fees Of the Circuit Clerks,
would be almost equal to an abrogation of the
office
This sort of legislation is somewhat like
railroad economy in similar matters, which be-
gins and ends in cutting down the pay Of the
clerks, engineers and hrakesmen, while .helfat
Offices Of president, treasurer, and other rich
pickings are untouched.
Away with such economy,
If the Legislature mast have money by re-
trenching the pay of those who work for the
public, in the name of common sense and COM
mon justice, let us not begin at the bottom, but
at the top Of the calendar.

Public Education.

The pamphlet report of Gen. j. A
Smith, State Superintendent of Public
Education, will be ready for distribu
tion in few days. While we have the
matter in type, we transfer it to our
columns, that the public generally may
have the benefit of his views. The re-
port is decidedly readable document.
His suggestions are eminently practi-
cal, and will no doubt be favorably con-
sidered by the body to whom they are
are addressed, The public school sys-
tenn is certainly growing in popular re-
gard, and if we understand the temper
of our Legislature, this great interest

MERIDIAN, MISS january ~ LooV
EpfroRs ULARIoS-Thero will now be n va
cnncy on the Supreme Bench, and hopes are
entertained here that Judge j. s. Hamm may
be appointed Not only the bar, but the
masses Of the people would indorse his ap-
pointment.
To those who know Judge lIamm L will be
unnecessary to state his qualifications. II is
not saying too much 10 state that in learning
he is not surpassed by any man in Mississip-
pi. lie is n profound lawyer, his learning
not only extending to the great principles Of
the law, but embracing also its minutest de-
tails, which a remarkable memory enables
him 80 rOthin--he seems &c les fond of hard,
continuous labor in the study of law.
His moral character, which is absolutely
above reproach, his urtrng industry aud
his thorough scholarship combine to render
him the fttest man know for the place. 1t is
believed he would fill the position of Supreme
Judge with as much ability M he has that Of
Circuit Judge.
1t seems to mo chat Judge IIamms unGinch.
ing performance of his embarrassing duties
in the Kemper county cases alone demonstrates
his fitness for high judicial positions. A man
who could and did rise superior to all indu-
ences, aad do his whole duty, Ms Judge llamm
did in these cases, and who was able to resist
influences which would have controlled ordi-
nary men, surely deserves the highest praise.
The bearing Of Judge Hamm, sitting in the
place whore nearly all his professional life
had been passed, and where his old neiRAhprs
aud friends were on trial, was such as to COM
mand the hearty approval of even those who
had come to oriticise and whose judgment was
biased by sectional feeling.
For Mississippi to promote such man is to
give the very strongest evidence that she Is
true TO the professions she makes to the people
of other sections, and would be regarded as
proof of the controlling power of - healthy
public sentiment. WIN

Redistrictlng the State.

Inquiry has been made if it will de.
volve upon the present Legislature to
redistrict the State for the election Of
members of the United States Congress
under the census of 1880. We answer
that it will not. An election for mem.
bers of Congress will be held next No.
vember under the present apportion-
ment. The census will be taken in
June next, and Congress will make the
new apportionment at the ensuing De-
cember session. The members elected
in November will serve out their terms
ending March 4th, 1888. The Legisla.
ture which will meet in January. 1882,
will redistrict the State according tC
the new apportionment, and the cleo
ton ensuing (in November 1882 will
be held under it.

Hanged, but Not Dead.

A woman in Scotland lived thirty years
after she was hung for the murder of her
child, born while her husband was serving
a term in prison. The British Medical Jour
nal tells about il: "After she became un-
conscious, the sheriff, thinking she was
dead, gave the body TO her friends who
took it home in wagon. They stopped at
a wayside tavern to drink, and suddenly the
lid of the coffin moved They took took it
off, and she sat up. Everybody ran away,
thinking it ghost, but one man, who in
sisted on bleeding her. The next day she
was well enough to walk, The Scotch law

The preference of the Republican
members of the New York Legislature
on the Presidential nomination has been
obtained, and it stands:
OF "a Senators, II are for Grant, | for
Sherman, for Grant or Blaine, and IL are
non-committal
OF the Assemblymen, 4S are for Grant,
II for Blaine, for Sherman, { for Conk.
ling, for Garfield, while Is would not
commit themselves.
The indications all point to the nomi-
nation Of Gen, Grant, and the leaders
of the Democratic party would act
wisely to make such disposition of their
forces as the grave emergency de-
mands.
