.riluen a Candidate

New York, Dec. 13.-Whcn Grover
Cleveland was elected governor Of New
York by nearly 100000 majority, he was
at once pointed ont rs the man TO be the
next democratic candidate for president
People ont of New York naturally conclnd-
ed that Cleveland must be the most popn-
lar man in the state, and therefore his
nomination for president would insure the
state to the democrats. But the fact is
Cleveland owed his nomination to Tilden,
and for u big slice OF the majority he re-
ccived was indebted to the same influence.
Cleveland must be greatly flattercd by the
mention OF his name for the presidency,
but he has no. idea Of being n candidate.
He recognizes the forces which elected him
governor of New York, and docs not pro-
pose TO fall ont with the man who contri-
buted SO much toward it by aspiring to the
very place his great patron claims. Cleve-
land is not going to be a candidate in 1854,
but Tilden is. and he expects Cleveland to
do all he can to help him, This may be
depended upon.
There may be persons who believe that
Cleveland with his nearly 100000 major-
ty to encourage him, might be disposed to
strike out Tor himself; but this will not be,
unless Tiidcn should determine not to be a
candidate In that event Cleveland would
be Tildcn's candidate, and could carry New
York casilv.

gregate approximately. G,1o0,00O bale

ted report of the crop but the result of Il
careful revision Of consolidated county, cs-

with ex-senator Dorsey, in which
numerous letters of the late Presi-

can come of the interview. L. will

A Trip to Natchez.

To say any thing good about.
Natchcz and leave out the Little j.
3. II, the pet of all Natclez people,
would almost be aan insult, so we
will commence with our start from
Jackson over this remarkable little
road.
Promptly at seven n. m. the,llttlc
engine pulled its self out of Jackson,
.makingpaly moderate tine as, the
road rs,a bed for the first few miles is not
we'll settled. After passing the old
town of Raymond we commenced to
glide along the smooth rails with
increased speed, which averaged
twenty-five miles per hour. The
country traversed by this road is one
of magnificent possibilities. Fertile
and we'll cultivated fields were the
rule and substantial farm houses
denoted the character of the inhab-
itants. The towns along the line,
notably, Raymond, Utica, st. Elmo.
Martin and Fayette had the appear
ance of containing wcll-to.do and
prosperous people. The shipments,
local and foreign, now going over
this road, have strained its carrying
capacity to the utmost. 90
Arrived at Natchez at one p. m,
you: representative went ct oaca to
the, Faster TIonso 1nagnifcicnt
>to1e mausio., presided over BY
the Misses. Foster After eating
his fill your reporter went forth to
interview the people of this historic
city. He first called at the office of
the Democrat, where warm well
come was rendered him by the edi-
tor in chef, Mai. Grafton. 70 Mai.
Grafton your representative is in
debted for his kindness in introduc-
ing him to the merchants of Match
eZ.
Natchez to day is in it's zenith of
prosperity, and no where can there
be found q more cnterprising popu
lation. It's cotton factories, street
railway, elevator, and other enter
prises Of equal Importance make
NatcheZ one Of the foremost cities
in the South in the point OF 90
ahead Inverness.
The merchants are mcn Of broad
and liberal views, generous and
prosperous. Being Stockholders
and directors in all of the many
enterprises now under way they are
justly proud of their success. They,
and in fact, everybody in Natchez
are anxionsly looking to Brookha-
ven as an active contributor to the
survey Of the road from Natchez to
Brookhaven. Judge Reber. who is
oneofthe main projectors of the road
is now in New York, perfectine
arrangements to get capital to bnild
it and it is now left for Natchcz and
Brookhaven to pay for the survey.
The registration for the elections
shows Natchez to be 4 city of about
eleven thousand population. 1t is
\ live, prosperous city, with future
prospects of the most tlltte:ing ma
.ure.
