Hon. r. N. Miller, of COpiah.

Signal.
Referring to a communication in these
columns last week urging the, candidacy for
Congress in this District, of our fellow
townsman, Hon. r. n. Miller, we are au-
thorized by that gentleman to express to
the many personal and political friends
throughout the Congressional District who
have echoed the sentiments of the commu-
nication referred to, his appreciation and
feelings of gratitude for the compliment,
and to announce that he has not been, and
can not be candidate for the nomination.
Complicated and engrosing business en-
gagements will preclude the possibility OF
deYoting the time and energy requisite to a
candidacy into which Mr. Miller would con-
sent 10 enter.

Starkville Times.
His theme was The duties of the Young
Women of Mississippi and the preparation
necessary for these duties. Notwithstand-
ing the lateness of the hour, and the high
temperature of a sweltering summer night,
the honorable gentleman handled his sub
ject well. In person the Captain is tall
and commanding, his enunciation was dis
tinct, and his style of address impressive
His subject matter was ad tempora-suited
to the times. The introduction was in
most excellent taste. The work of this
generation is to reconstruct and build up
the social order, and educational system of
the South, on the ruins of the former sys-
TEN, overthrow by the late war. In this
up-building of society, woman has an inn
portant part to perform. He insisted upon
the importance of economy, the dignity of
labor the cultivation of the social relations
and the improvement of the intellect. No
question was raised as to the comparative
mental capacity of man and woman. The
latter had made a name and character
that commanded the admiration of the
world, instanoing Hannah Moore, Mrs. Sig
Quincy, and others. Special stress was laid
upon moral culture. The conditions neces-
sary to prepare woman for her place in
society could not be supplied by the public
schools of the State; these conditions must
be supplied by the high schools and col
leges, of private or individual enterprise,
such as has been conducted with signal sue
cess for so many years by the able President
of the Starkville Female Institute.
