GOTHAM GRIsr.

New York, Aug. 6.-The weather
continues unusually hot; the hottest Of
the season. The exodus to seaside re-
sorts Is unprecedented. There have
been numerous fatal sunstrokes.
The Tribssne has the following squib;
Geo. q. Gorham win discover presently
that this is an unfavorable time for
persistent slander of the president, and
to thrust himself forward as a candl-
date for republican favor. The wise
course for him to follow is to shrink
from public gaze for at least year.
The World thus epitomises its Paris
letter; Our correspondent does our
late minister in France, Gen. Noyes,
no more than justice, in the statement
which he makes. that Gen. Noyes in
vain endeavored to obtain authority
from the state department to check by
simple statement Of the doctrines and
the policy of the United States. the in
flation Of the Panama canal bubble.
Precisely why Evarts failed to respond
to the urgent representations of Noyes
on this subject, it is not necessary Just
now to inquire. 1t is quite certain
that the Panama canal will never be
conducted by Lesseps; and it is also
quite certain, we fear. that an inevita-
BILE collapse at some not very distant
day of the so-called Panama canal
company, which will be attended by
such widespread distress among the
French people who have been engineered
into purchasing securities of that COM
pany, as have not been seen in France
since the days of Law and the regent.
When the catastrophe comes the whole
story must be told in all its details, and
it is fortunate for Noyes that he took
such steps in the premises IS he did.
Francis Murphy, the we'll known
temperance lecturer and founder of the
gospel temperance movement. has ar
rived in this city from the oil regions
in Pennsylvania, where he has been
laboring for total abstenance. He sails
to-day for England, intending to hold
gospel temperance meetings in Great
Britain and Ireland.
The rage for building that set in with
the opening Of this year, and is still
continued without abatement, is with
out precedent in this city. Tho amount

The One Man Power.

EDITORS CLARION: agree with Billy
Grubber on the main question discussed in
his communication published in your issue
Of the 18th inst, that is, the ProPFiety OF
rotation in the Governors office, but dissent
upon collateral question For instances,
Mr.. Grubber saws, II am not censuring the
friends of the various gentleman, who have
been appointed to Office by Gov. Stone
for working for his denomination, and
further on he says, at is generally under
stood that it is right for a man to stick mp
to his friends and again he says, at is hu-
man to lean towards those who help u, and
advance US to positions of honor, and aid US
to keep the wolf from our door.
From these expressions, | understand Mr.
Grubber to excuse those who have been APP
pointed to Office by Gov Stone, for support
ing him in his third.term pretensions, and to
go so far As to palliate the conduct OF the
friends of those appointees for the same thing.
Apparently this excuse in the one, case, and
palliation in the other, is based, purely, upon
the mercenary consideration that Gov.
Stone conferred office on a particular indi-
yidual | dissent from all this, and say the
appointee should not be excused, nor any
palliatjons offered, for the conduct OF his
friends in this matter. Offices filed by
appointment Of Gov. Stone were not of his
bounty to be bestowed or withheld as bis
prerogatives will dictate, as though he
exercised sovereign and imperial power, but
they were created by law. TO be filled for the
benefit of the people, they were not created
and placed at his disposal, for his dispense
ton, in the purchase of political friendships
and partisan attachments, 10 the end that
his lease of power should be extended in
indefinitely, perchance during the term OF
MS natural lie,
The presumption should be that Gov.
Stone conferred appointment on no one
upon mere personal consideration, but upon
the merit OF qualification alone, backed by
the desire of those to be affected by the APP
pointment expressed through petitions. In
this view of the matter, Gov. Stones APP
pointees, nor their friends, were brought
under any obligation to him of personal
character; because the law required the APP
pointment to be made OF suitable qualifica-
ton, and if we live in country, where gov
eminent is derived from the people, as the
source of power, that it was the voice of the
people commanding the appointment to be
made by Gov. Stone, who had been selected
/ by the people from the people.
Any other view would place Gov. Stones
| appointees in the attitude of having brass
collars around their neoks with the initials
/ 81 NJ s." engraved thereon. | protest
against placing the judiciary of the State
in any such category, by implication, now.
| would resent that charge made in advance
that any judge or chancellor, would be
| found trailing the ermine in the mire OF
| politics, and descending to the dirty level
| of going around and electoneering for any
candidate for office. Truth.

The Democratic-C onservatiYe Party
of Kinds in Council.

There never was held in Kinds coun.
ty larger and more thoroughly repre-
sentative Convention of the Democrat,
ic-ConserYative party ofthe county than
assembled in Raymond on the 18th.
Every precinct vas represented by a
full delegation, and there were large
numbers in attendance besides, who
had been attracted by the deep interest
she meeting. From beginning TO end
it was perfectly harmonious. DR.. Nc
ConnelI presided with characteristic
impartiaIity, aud the utmost respect
was shown by the Convention for the
rulings and appointments Gf the chair.
There was not the slightest ripple upon
the current of good order and fraternal
feeling which pervaded the body. 1t
was emphatically a union of hearts and
a union of hands. The resolution in
structing for Governor was adopt
ed by rising and unanimous vote
and with hesrtiness rarely witnessed
With equal unanimity the Convention
resolved to instruct for no other Office.
The delegates to the State Con-
vention we're reported by a Com
mittee after being chosen by the mem
bers from the several Supervisors Dis
tricts, and their appointment was the
creation of the people themselves. They
were instructed to vote solidly until
nomination for Governor is made; but
in reference to the other Offices they
are to exercise their discretion and vote
each according TO his individual prefer
ence. Evidently the all-pervadingi
thought Of the delegates was to subor-
dinate all other Rsminations to that of
their own countyman for the first place
ON the ticket.
The new Executive Committee Is
composed of the best material in the i
county. Maj. Harper the veteran
organizer of our county victory of
1875, and subsequent years, was con-
tinned in the Office of Chairman of the
Committee. Immediately after the
adjournment Of the Convention, the
held 8 meeting and decided
to call Conyention fqF the nomination
of candidates for county offceFs On the
10th Of October.

grounded in the strictest elements of the
constitutional Jurisprudence of both State
aud Federal governments, it offers 10 all, re-
gardless OF color or creed, who desire honest
reform and "A healthful progress in the al
ministration of our complete system Of gov
eminent, party organization worthy OF the
most elevated sentiment, cultured intellect
and nobleSt manhood.
Resolved, I'd, That, therefore We do not
behold with alarm, but hail with delight the
fact that throughout the United States,
there have riseI into res pectable and grow
ing numbers, those of all political creedS,
who in common with the Democratic party,
are sensitively alive Ia the already existing
evils and encroaching dangers to the rights
aud even the liberties of free people, by
huge and hither % uncontrolled Incorporated
mOnopolles of various kinds. And 10 all
these who have espoused the doctrine OF
legislative control to check the excessive
exaetiOns. trespasses and torts OF corporate
bodies and monied monopolles, we invite
them into our ranks, and point them with
conscious rectitude and exultant pride to our
platform of 1877, in this State which Is IN
the following words: Corporations ofevery
description supervisable within constitutions
al limits by State authority and subordinate
to State legislation in the interest and Tor
the protection of the people"
Resotred, 3d. That Hon. Ethel Barksdale,
being in accord with the Democratic party
as set forth in its State platform, ana he
having unequivocally published his endorse
ment of the above quoted doctrine, and by
his talent and long devoted service of the
party and State he deserves and ought To
be the Governor, and we do instruct our
delegates for him as long as his name is be-
fore the Convention. And for Lieutenant
Governor and other State candidates, said
delegates will see to it that they are also IN
accord with the foregoing before voting for
them.
Resolved, 4th, That our Representative,
the Hon. John p. Seabrook, has made valr
liable and acceptable public servant, aud ms
his public and private character Is unsullled
and without just reproach, and being IN &C
cord with the sentiment of this county, we
do endorse him as our candidate for tue State
Senate and our delegates are instructed to
support him, as the choice of Wayne, with
out casting any reflections on his honorable
opponent.
ResoLred, 9th, That in view of the well
known, long, able and faithful service to
the Democratic party of Col A. q. Horn, of
Meridian, we present to the State Conven-
ton his name for the office of Lieutenant
Governor and hereby instruct our delegates
to vote for him for that Office.
On motion the meeting adjourned.

ANYBoDY-BUT IN THE INTEREST OF
HARMONY.
SARDIs, Miss, July 25, 1881.
Tn the Editor of the Star


To the Editor of the Star:
When my name was first mentioned in
connection with the Gubernatorial nomina-
ton, was disposed at once to publish de-
clination. Knowing that some who would
have supported NE were already committed
to other candidates, and realizing the many
disadvantages attendant upon entering the
canvass at that date, looked upon defeat as
almost inevitable. Friends, however, thought
differently, and yielding to their solicitations,
l postponed final and definite action. 1t is
now manifest that | cannot go into the Con-
vention with positive strength enough to give
assurance of anything more favorable to me
than the possibility OF producing a ''dead-
lock-" and the contingencies which might
arise therefrom. Believing that the can
vass should be simplihed rather than com
plicated, have concluded to withdraw my
name from the list of Candidates. | wish it
distinctly understood that my action in this
matter 10 not ia tle tureFast Gf any nlan, or
faction, or so=called living" Of the party, but
is taken simply for the purpose of leaving
those who have supported me free to choose
between the distinguished gentlemen who
are yet in the race. Hoping that ticket
may be nominated which will thoroughly
harmonize the party, and be Jriumphantly
elected, and rendering to those who haEAso
generously supported me the sincerestAhd
most heartfelt thanks am, respectfully,
Il. II. TAYLOR.
