Mobile Register:-''We would inform the
Detroit Post and Tribune that the average south
erner no more pronounce sir 'sah,' than the
average northerner pronounces Calculate
.kalkIlate.'" And not hall 30 much as the
average yankee pronounced. 'cow'' 'skeow."
When 1t comes to pronunciation we sOutherners
think ourselves as free from provInclalisms as
any people in the world even II we are a little
broad in our .'a,'' and sometimes ''tote" q
horse to water, while our northern neighbor
none the less laboriously Carries him.
We notice by the Socorro. N. M. papers that
Mr.. Robt. A. Darst is one of the prominent and
prosperous citizens there. We are glad to hear
it. Mr.. Darst was tor many years a successful
steamboatman on the Missouri and Mississippi
rivers, and is we'll known and universally es.
teemed by those who knew HIM in that avoca-
ton. He is an old st. Leuisian, a thorough and
| huiSueu Du5lucSS llbu VI luCOrTupLlDlc lupekrl-
ty. and withal' a genial, cultivated gentleman.
He is an old Forty-niner, too. so that he cannot
be known, even In New Mexico, as o ''tender-
foot" We hope that in his new far western
home his lines will fall in pleasant places.
Among the ex-eonfederates at MoberIy, we
noticed Col. Ben. Elliott, Capt. j. d. Conner,
W.. Boon Major. Judge VIM Young, C.Y. Ford,
Charles E. Allstadt. Wade Hicklin, jos. Ra-
mey, Thomas T.. Gibbs and Thomas Neale.
There were, no doubt, others from Lafayette
county, but these were. all that we met. The
confusion Of a fair rendered it somewha din.
calt for the old soldiers to find each other during
the day. In the evening they were thrown to-
geIher for a snOrI time at thrir meeting. Moth
ing pleasanter than this reunion OF old friends
has taken place since the war. In Gov. Rey-
nold's speech printed on the first page of this
Issue. will be found an allusion to Capt. j. ID.
Conner, which illustrates the hundreds of SINH
lar experiences which to be appreciated must
be felt.
