Who He Is.

NEW YORK. Jan. 24.--Gen. J. e. George.
who was yesterday elected Senator from
Mississippi, Is the man who conducted the
rife club and shotgun campaign in Missis-
sippi in 1875. by which the State was by
force wrested from the hands Of the Repub-
llcans. Soon after the campaign closed he
was rewarded by being made judge. and
now he is elevated to the Senate. In his
election as Senator, Lamar received re-
buff, as be was using all his influence I'd
procure the election Of General Walthall.
Lamar and his friends interested themselves
very actively for Walthall. but to no pnr.
pose. The inference is that Lamar's in.
duenos in Mississippi Is on tue decline.

the Fusion Governor Gives Il Up.

AUGUSTA, Jan. 27.-The Fusionists are
very much depressed at the news from the
Court. Major Smith said be believed the
controversy bad now ended. He said that
while the previous opinion of the Judges
was based On Republican statements there
was no room for reasonable doubts; but in
view Of the fact that the Court had decided
against them on the Fusion statements,
they could but gracefully submit. He had
got through playing Governor and should
go home. Major Smiths views will be
adopted by the better part of the Fusonists
who will take thsir seats in tue Legisla-
tnre. Sawyer says he still considers him
self Secretary of State. Henry Ingalls,,
