Deserved Success.

Yazoo Herald: BarksdaIe had big ma
jority to overcome in his district, but moth
ing daunted, he flung himself into the can
yass with the courage of hero, and worked
so untiringly for his cause that he won the
day by a rousing majority. No candidate
ever displayed more energy than he did. and
never was a candidate more handsomely
rewarded for his pains than in this case.
The zeal that he displayed deserved to be
rewarded But fortune always favors the
brave. the active and the viyiiant.

Continuing his remarks Gen. Lee said
"The Farm Department is also splendidIy

milk cows. The College herd now consists
of over 200 cattle. The thoroughbred stock
Is now being purchased. About $4,000 will
be expended in the Hostein; $1,000 in
Herefords; $1,000 in GalloWays, the balance
of the appropriation for this purpose in Short
Horns. This division is made at the re-
quest of the Stock Breeders Association OF

blood in this State. The College Herd

up by the thoroughbreds As each COW

way 40 good mixers and supply the stu
dents with beet, butter and milk, The great
advantage being that the College mess hall

A DEMOCRATIC contemporary says
truly that it viii be easy for the Demo
cratic party, By an unwise and inju-
dicious course, by failure to appreciate
the responsibilities now thrown upon it,
to cause reaction and even a revulsion
which would place it further from per
manent victory than it has been since
1872. But this is improbable. The
Democrats have learned something By
experience. Its the extreme Bourbon
who neither learns nor forgets any
thing.

During the recent visit of Gen. 6.

to gather such information in regard to
that institution as might be of interest
to the public. Gen. Lee received him
with characteristic cordiality, and upon
learning the object of the visit said that 1t
was his duty to submit all facts touching the
College that might be desired, but that in
this instance it was q pleasure also, for the
condition and prospects of the College were
never better, and he had pardonable pride
in making both known. Upon being as
sured that the reporter was all attention,
be said !: "The College opened with very
encouraging prospects. There are 25O stu
dents in attendance. The recent law appor-
tioning the students among the educable
white boys has worked we'll. 1t has given
class of boys bent on obtaining the full
advantages of the College. The four College
classes have about $50 students, and the
Preparatory Department 100 The College
is splendidly fitted up owing to the very
liberal appropriation given by the Legisla-
ture. The students have now large mess
hall, at which over 200 take their meals.
Over the mess hall are two Literary society
halls. The old buildings are being i'm
proved and new ones erected. The chemi-
cal labratory will be completed in about
three weeks, and in my opinion will be the
best and most splendidly equipped in the
South. The Chemical Department Of the
College has already been of great advantage
to the State. The State Chemist, with one
assistant, can scarcely perform the analyses
of commercial fertilizers, made obligatory
upon him by the last Legislature, and those
undertaken in the interest of the farmers
