Capt. Robert Joselyn, formerly
weil-known citizen OF North Missis-
sippi, died in Austin Texas, ON the
4th inst. Capt. Joselyn at one time
edited a paper in Holly Springs, and
once filed State Office at jackson.
At the beginning of the war he was
for several months private secretary
of President Davis, when he was ap-
pointed governor of the Territory of
New Mexico. The Confederate sym
pathizers in the territory never es-
tablished a substantial foothold, and
Mr.. Joselyn located himself in
Texas, where he has since remained.
Mr.. Joselyn served with credit in
the Mexican war. He was pleasant
and amiable gentleman, and we re-

ton. Saving several hundred miles and

The Rev. Mr.. Talmage says there
is something melancholy in the
chase for Office, when We reflect that
the vast majority must come to
disappointment. The same amount
of struggle in some straightforward
business would give man a surer
livelihood, easier conscience and
higher responsibility. To be sue
cessful politician, in our day, so
much lying and stealing and bribery
are considered necessary, that gen
orally by the time man has been
ten or fifteen years in policies he
has no more principle to surrender.
The honest politicians of New York
and BROOKLYN you can count in~a
very brief time. Men who thought
themselves invulnerable have some
times been shipwrecked in our cleo
ton canvass. We all ought to be
vigilant about public affairs, and
rcligiously exercise the right off
sufferage; but before man makes
politics his regular business he
ought either to haye so large a for
tune that the emoluments of office
can be no temptation, or he ought
to have had his integrity so fully
tried in some other furnace that he
is sure he can stand the political
oven seven times heated. | have
buried professional politicians, and !
tell you the most of them make a very
hard funeral for christian minister
to speak at.
