EXTRA SESSION.

We are sorry to note that IL few of
our contemporaries are endeavoring to
create Il reaction in the matter of an
extra session of the Legislature, and
strive to persuade their readers that the
constitution Of 1880 is adequate for all
purposes of practical reform-that it is
best to let it work its own redemption.
The arguments used to this end are
too fallacious and illogical in their
nature to excite any special refutation,
or to cause any material change in the
opposing masses.
The advocates Of procrastination
argue that under the provisions of the
constitution all abuses must become
extinct and all dissensions be merged
in beatitic union.
not only is this statement a bare illu-
sion, but it shows1 also gross igno-
rance of the present condition of affairs
in the State. We are to-day even
more embarrassed than before the as
sembling of the Constitutional Con-
vcntion. The promised relief of eXces-
sivc taxation has been proved delusive
by the action of the Supreme Court
in affirming the claims of the bond.
holders ; and the whole machinery OF
government is more completely mud
died than at any previous epoch of oul
history. The cost drumming the wheels
of the State has been increased rather
than diminished, and its efficacy great
ly impaired. Take, for example, the
collection of taxes, past and present,
which we understood at one time was
to have been rigidly enforced. The
month of January is now almost eN.
pired and we have yet to learn of any
I instance i'll which these provisions have
been sustained.
We could cite a hundred other in
stances were they necessary to sustain
the indictment, but it is palpablc tina
q large majority of the people are cog
infant OF these facts, and need no othe
guide than the innate love OF justic'
and truth to guide them iii their de
smands for rcdrcss.-,1. Bernard. Et.gIe

Davitt's real offence was not his inn
prudent language, but the boundless
energy and fertility of resource which
he had brought to the creation OF the
Land League organization: When we
look closely at this argument it seems
to stultify the Ministry; for if Mr.
Davitt is really the head and front OF
the whole there aresigns,
as we are now told, that the confine-
ment of one man will suffice to dislo-
cate the whole machinery of resistance
how comes it that this man has been
suffered so long to go at large? How
can Mr.. Foster justify what his own
friends must deem his culpable neglect
in permitting for months the growth
and aggravation of disorders which, on
the theory of Mr.. Davitt's Importance,
were susceptible of such an easy
remedy? Why has he asked for a
coercion act, if nearly all he hoped to
gain from that anomalous and perilous
concession could be won by a simple
revocation of Il convict's ticket of ofleave?
Why, in word, should he postpone
the business of an imperial legislature,
and compel constitutional crisis, by
his demand for eNtra-legal powers.
which, it is now alleged. will be bat
seldom exercised, seeing that the knot
of the Irish difficulty has professedly
been cut by Michael Davitt's imprison-
ment :-Ner York ,S,M.

LEARNED LAMAR.

Again Mr.. Lamar has taken the bull
by the horns and declared to his con-
stituents that he knows moro than all
them combined. We have no serious
objection to his Sumner eulogy, and,
at this late date, we may in part for
give him for his total disregard of the
instruction of our legislature to vote
for the silver bill. But Mr.. Lamar, in
his advocacy and support of the pen
sion bill retiring Gen. Grant, certainly
expressed the sentiment of Mr.. Lamar
only. He too we'll knew it was not the
sentiment of the people of this state.
He knew, in plain English, that we
were not republicans down this way.
and that republican legislature did
not elect him United States senator.
Therefore we do not and cannot ap.
prove of his action when he joins the
republican party and votes with that
party to advance the interest and per.
petuate the organization of that party
We are too democratic in principle fol
the kind. Briefly we want no policy re
publican. democratic politician in ours
| We want the simon pure or none al
all. In voting for and supporting Tho
bill to retire Gen. Grant Mr.. Lamar
did it on his own accord. The peopl,
of Mississippi do not approve it.

WRITING FOR THE PRESS.

Causeur knows that he will deserve
and win the thanks of all managing
editors Ii he can but Impress these few
stmple rules upon the minds Of those
who write for the press: III. 'j at,sa, :.
l. Write upon one sido of tho shcCt
only. Whye Because It Is often necea-
sary to cut the pages into sstakes'' for
the competitors, and this cannot be
done when both sides arc written
upon. ,fI gl
II. Write clearly and ldist,nc,,y.
being particularly careful III the mat.
ter of proper names, and words from
foreign languages. Why: Because YOU
have no right to ask either editor or
out the results Of your self1shness.
III. Don't write In microscopic
hand. Why9 Because the compositor
has to read 1t across his case, at dis.
tance Of nearly two feet; also, because
tho editor often wants to make adj
ditions and other changes.
Nv. Don't begin at the very top of
the first page. Why? Because IT you
have written head for your articles,
the editor will probably want to
change IL; and II you have not, which
Is the better way, he must write ono.
Besides, he wants room In which to
write his instructions to the printer as
to the typeto be used, where and when
the proof 10 to be sent, etc. u q 'fs
v. Never roll your manuscript.
Why? Because It maddens aud exas.
perates every one who touches it
editor, compositor, and proof.readler.
vi. He brief. Why? Because pco-
pie don't read long stories. Tho number
of readers which any two articles have
Is inverseIy proportioneti to the square
Of their respective length. That is,
half. column article Is read by four
times as many people as one OF double
that length.
VII. Have the fear of the waste
basket constantly and steadily before
your eyes. Why? Because 1t viii save
you vnst amount of useless labor, to
say nothing of paper and postage.
VIII. always write your full name
and address plainly at the end OF your
letter. Why? Because 1t will often
happen that the editor will want to
communicate with you, and because
he needs to know the writer's natne as
u guarantee of good faith. II you use 4
pseudonym or initials, write your own
name and address below IL; 1t will
never be divulged.
IX. ssThese pfeccpts In thy memory
keep" and for fepr you nsIght forget
them cut them out and put them
where you can readily rum through
them when tempted to spill innocent
ink. 81.

A great statesman's fame: The
Galveston darkics read the papers a
great deal more than one would sup
pose. Yesterday Tom Buckncr, who
keeps colored saloon, applied 10 the
county clerk for marriage license.
That official, thinking to joke the ap-
plicant, said he could not issue the
license unless Tom gave n $500 bond
not 10 apply for divorce for whole
year. Tom laughed and said "I
