Ungentlemanly Conduct.

Members of the Ninth Massa-
chusetts regiment are now on trial
at Richmond, Va, by a military
commission, for alledged miscon-
duct. The testimony shows that
from fifty to seventy-fye of the
members have been guilty of insult
ing ladies of Richmond on the
streets that many of the soldiers
paraded one of the main thorough
fares in broad daylight with negro
women of the lowest character in
their arms, embracing and kissing
them that they took possession OF
vehicles, putting the drivers off:
that they invaded bar-rooms and
helped themselves, refusing to pay
for drinks, and committed many
other acts of wantonness."
Part Of this regiment was in New
Orleans during Mardi Gras, and
they were shown the greatest res
pect and consideration. They were
entertained by the clubs Of that
city and treated as royal guests.
We trust that none CT those were
engaged in the disgraceful scenes at
Richmond.

Nervous Irritability, Sciatica and all pain
iul Nervous Discases.-A treatise by well
known physician, aspeclalist on these sub
,ccts, concludes as follows: neuralgia is
one Of the most painful; OF diseases, and is
attended with more or less nervous irrita-
ton. Scatica is also a form OF neuralgia,
and all painful! nervous diseases come I'M
der that name. Neuralgia means nerve
ache, and therefore you can suffer with neu-
ralgia in any part Of the body, as the nerves
are supplied to every part.
| have for many years closely studied the
cause OF neuralgia, and the nature of the
nervous system, with the many diseases that
it is subject 10, and have found by actual
experience that the true and primary cause
of neuralgia is poverty Of thc nervous fluid
it becomes impoverished and poor, and in
some cases starved, not because the patient
does not eat, but because what is eaten is
not appropriated to the nervous system !;
there are many causes for this, but Dr.. c
w. Benson'5 Celery aud Chamomile Pills
have in nay hands proved perfect remedy
for this condition and these diseases.

By the President Of the Uuited States
Of America:
PROCLAMATION.
1t has long been pious custom of
our people, with the closing OF the
year, to look back upon tho blessings
brought to them In The changing
course OF seasons, aud to return solemn
thanks to The All Giving Source from
whom they flow, aud although at this
period. when the fallen leaf admonishes
us that the time of our sacred duty is
at hand, onr nation still lies in the
shadow of great bereavement and
mourning which has filed our hearts.
still finds its sorrowful expression to-
word the God before whom we but
lately bowed in grief and suppIication,
yet the countless benefits which have
been showered upon us during the past
IL months call for our fervent graft
tude, and make it fitting that we should
rejoice with thenkfulness that the Lord
in his infinite mercy has most sigualIy
favored onr country and our people
Peace without and prosperity within
have been vouchsafed to us. No pesti-
fence has visited our shores. The abun>
don't privileges Of freedom, which our
fgtbers left us 10 their wisdom, ere still
our increasing heritage, and if in parts
of our vast domain some affi,ction has
visited orr brethren in taeir forest
homes, yet even this calamity has been
tempered and ID manner sanctified
by the generous compassion for snif,r>
ers which has been called forth through>
out our land. For all :hese things it is
meet that the voice Of the nation should
go mp to God in devout homage.
Wherefore, I, Chester A Arthur,
President of The United States, do rec
ommend that all people observe Thurs
day, the twenty fourth day of Novem.
Der, instant, IS a day Of national thanks.
giving and prayer. by ceasing, SO far as
may be, from their secular laEfors, and
meeting in the several places fer wor'
ship, there to join in ascribing honor
and praise to Almighty God, whose
goodness has been so manifest in our
history, and in onr lives, and Offering
earnest prayer that His bounties may
continue to US and to our children.
In witness whereof, l have hertunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, This
7th day of November. in the year of our
Lo.d, 1881, and OF the independence Of

Judge valian,'s Decision.

When Lanier was tried before
Judge Valiant, at Greenyille, for
Wandering Love, that wise CD ex-
FOUNDER Of the law discharged him
saying in his opinion "Lanier did
what any man of honor would do"
This lawless expression has been
applauded by some of our State ex-
changes. We are glad to see that
Judge Watson, of Holly Springs,
has rebuked the sentiment expressed
by Justice Valiant In q letter to
the Jackson Report he says
For the sheriff to take the life of
the greatest criminal ever sentenced
to death in q manner Or at time
not prescribed by law is murder;
and how, therefore, is it possible for
it not to be murder for an individu-
al or mob, to usurp the functions
of judge, jury and executioner, and
without the scmblance OF legal au
thority to take the life of a human
being under the protection of law
After days of deliberation and
pursuit and when he was himself,
exposed to no personal harm what
ever, and wholly US ia act Of resent.
ment, Lanior killed Love, by pierre
( ing bis body with nineteen balls
discharged from double Darrelled
shot gun and Two deadly revolving
pistols. This set was in morals and
in law, 4 crime identical in princi-
pie, with that involved in the as
sassination Of President Garfield by
Guitcau.
The editor Of the Oxford Falcon,
who is also q Judge, says:
So FAR as we have been able to
gather from the facts, we7can see
no excuse for the decision Of Mayor
Valiant in the Love Lanier tragedy.
There certainly was no legal justi-
fication for the killing, if the facts
published are corrcc,. No matter
what may have been the provoca-
ton for the deed, the law does not
recognize the right of any man to
take life, other than in the defense
of life, and looking to the law in
this case it was plainly the duty OF
the committing court to have held
the prisoner, either in duress Or
bonds and when this was not done,
Judge Valiant certainly failed in his
duty as an officer.

Why Immigrants 1oo RIOT Come.
The following from German,
who resides in Carroll cou
true, and sounds SO much similar to
what we have written on the sub
ject, that we publish it:
We can't induce European Ia
borers to come here, for we have not
bread and meat to feed them on, nor
money to pay them. The fault lies
in the false and ruinohs system of
farming, and in neglecting to pro
duce other articles, easier raised
and better paying, than cotton. /
mean such productions as the eli
mate and soil of Mississippi are ca
pable of growing, and these are all
the staple articles of Southern Eu-
rope and China, as wine, pecans and
Madeira walnut, mulberry trees
for silk, the olive for oil, the Japan
persimmon. sugar and tea.

At forty two years old l came to the
Northern United States. and not

hoping to find better climate ard

King Cation was the idol worship

Ask the merchants how many thou
sands acres OF land they own as
compensation for credits, how many
thousands Of dollars they have in
notes secured by mortgages, how
many other thousands Of dollars
stand in th3.r books Aud how
many milfoM of dollars the cotton

chants ? Z Look at the immense

Now, says the cotton planter, you
should plant vines. nut trees and

make q pea crop between the rows
until they have grown up; in five
years the vines and olive trees and
the nut trees Will pay you q nice in
