a Caution to Smokers.

The dangers which menace smokers
are not confined, as it seems, to the del
eterious effects of taking foul vapor into
the lungs and throat. There are inciden-
tai perils against which it is only an act
of Kindness to warn the lovers of pipes
and cigar-holders. King James I. and
others who have since his day continued
to blow their counterblasts against the
use of the weed will, perhaps, object to
such philanthropy as misplaced, and
would prefer to see the tobacco maniacs
perish in their vice. 1t is to be feared,
however, that pipes have too firmly es-
tablished their home among us to beck
terminated by any such warnings, and
that, as smoking will inevitably be prac-
ticed in the world, the right thing to do
now is to remove from it the chief risks
Of serious injury it involves.
A paragraph in the Paris papers tells
us that q young man in that city was in
the habit Of cleaning out the stem and
mouth-piece Of his pipe with . common
knitting needle, which he neglected to
wipe and purify after each Of these APP
plications. One day, on hastily picking
up the instrument, its point ran into his
finger, and the result Of the wound,
which was at first neglected, is that he
will lose his arm, and may be considered
lucky if even by this means he can save
his life. The hand and arm swelled
gradually, owing to the poisonous effects
Of the nicotine. until two days after the
accident occurred he found it necessary
to 60 to surgeon. Remedies were APP
piled, butwith no effect and numerous
abscesses began to form upon the hand
and wrist. The case may be added to
others which have already shown that
even the smallest injection Of nicotine is
capable Of producing the gravest injury.
Smokers are hardly as fully aware Of
this fact as they should be, nor rs care
full in avoiding the contact of the nico-
tinous deposit always to be found in
pipes. Although the particular species
Of accident that has Just occurred in
Paris is hardly likely to repeat itself
often, it might very easily happen to q
man to have cracked or chapped lips,
upon which the moisture that exudes
from foul pipe might run and commu-
nicate q poison calculated to cause the
worst results.

Wesson Herald.
1t has been years since we have
witnessed so disgraceful an affair
as the republican convention which
assembled in Hazlehurst on the
10th nlt. Every county in the dis
trict was represented by six or eight
negroes while there we're only about
five white republicans present. An
effort was made by our greenback
and independent friends to prevent
tbis--but their efforts were power
less. Incendiary speeches were
made by republicans, who told the
negroes to organize their clubs, and
march to the polls; deposit their
ballots openly that men would be
there to see that this was done, etc.
They denounced what they termed
Bourbon democracy" and rejoiced
that the republicans of the Seventh
district bad the manhood 30 assert
their rights The whole tone and
temper OF the convention, or mob,
as we term it, was antagOnistic to
the whites. Very we'll! The issue
has been made, the color line has
been drawn.

A BRUTAL ASSAULT.
John W. LAWNS, Editor Of the
vieksburg Hornet, Assaulted
by Gang Of Roughs.

viekshurg Commercial.
The community were shocked
this morning to hear of the out
rageous assault made on Mr.. John
w. Lawns, editor aud proprietor
Of the Hornet, at or near the corner
of Grove and Walnut street last
night. about eleven o'clock. From
the most reliable information that
can be gathered it is stated that Mr..
LAWNS and Jack McKenna had
some words at the saloon OF Hibon
on Washington street. From there
Mr.. LAWNS started tor homo in com.
pany with Marshal Groom. When
near the Trowbridge house they
were met by McKenna, William
Busselman and several Others.
The attack was made on Mr.. Lawns
at this point, and the result is that
Mr.. LAWNS is disfgured for life, his
nose being entirely gone, having
been bitten of by one of the brutes.
Mr.. LAWNS fired one shot without
effect. 1t is not known what Mar.
shal Groom did in the premises,
but he stated to DIR. Robbins that
he was present. Mr.. LAWNS, Nc.
Kenna and Bushelman were arrest
ed. City clerk Trowbridge went
on the bond OF the two last named.
The attempted assassination was
evidently premeditated. Mr.. La
vius was moved IRON the city pris-
on TO his residence at nine O'Clock
this morning in dangerous condi-
ton from his mutilation aud bruises.
IL remains to be seen what measure
of justice may be taken in the mat.
ter, but one thing is certain that
District Attorney Fitzgerald will
spare no effort. AfiJavits have
been made against John Groom,
(city marshall j. ii. McKenna, W.
Ii. Burnett, Simon DeYoung and
VIM. Busselman for attempt to kill
and murder and for conspiracy
No mans life can be regarded as
safe IN this city which is yet provi
ded with an organized police force,
such brutal outrages aud evident
attempt to murder eau he perpe
trated under the very eyes of the
chief OF police.
John Groom, (city marshal), w
II. Burnett, Simon DeYoung, alial
Chatham Street, and VIM. Bussle
man were arrested this morning
and taken before Justice Mann fol
examination. District Attorney
Fitzgerald appeared and notified
the justice that he intended to con
duct the prosecution and requested
the release of John Groom (cit.
marshaD on his recognizance am
that the others be held until sue
time as Mr.. LAWNS might be abl
to appear in court. Up to the hou
of half past twelve no bond ha
been given. j. II. McKenna ha
: not at last accounts been ARRESTED
Since the above was written th
: charge against Marshal Groom wa
withdrawn by District Attorne,

mer. The German element is pre-
dominant, aud | am told the pro-
hibition movement In that city will
get black eye whenever the vote
is taken on that question. The
Germans will not give up the beer
without a hard fight. They talk
as if they would be willing to shed
some blood if it we're necessary to
defeat the temperance cause. Mil.
lions are invested in breweries, and
the owners are 10th to give up the
business. But from what ! CLEAN
from the best informed in the State
the temperance cause outside of the
German element is gaining ground
rapidly, and it will not be very
long before the question of prohibi-
ton will be submitted to the voters
Of the State. We will then see
what the result will be.
