New JERSEY PREMIUM WINE.-Physi.
clans state that the Port Wine, produced
by Mr.. Alfred Speer, of New Jersey,
that took the Premium at the Centennial,
is excellent for medicinal purposes being
pure and more reliable than other port
wines. Especially recommended for
weakly females and the aged. The
brown stone shale soil in which the
grapes grow is rich in iron, this is the
cause of the deep color and the blood
making properties of the wine. For

PROFANITY.

Profanity is not only violation of
the decalouge, but is vulgar and un>
gentmanly. But there is some doubt
as to what exact language constitutes
this crime. A Methodist preacher
lately was asked by one of his con-
gregation, who was what is denomi-
mated "a pillar of the church," what
he thought of certain book recently
published. The minister replied that
sit was not worth a tinker's dam. "
The pillar of the church, shocked by
the seeming profanity of his preacher
preferred charges against him. On
the trial the minister stated that a
''tinker's dam" was dam made by
itinerant members of tinware on q
pewter plate to contain the solder
with which they joined and held toe
gether the broken parts of wares to
be mended, and that the dam was
made of a material which invariably
gives way before the job is ended
The minister was acquitted. Hence
we have high authority for announc-
ing that to say thing sis not worth
a tinker's dam" is no profanity

A Misstatement in Regard TO the
Recent GOnye nfiOm Corrected.



MERIDIAN, Miss. July I'm your
issue of the 9th instant appears the FOL
lowing telegram;
COLUMBUS, Mss, July 5-The State
Press Association, with 100 members in
attendance, TO day settled the question of
anti railway Legislation by the election
of + @. Morehead as president, a gentle
man who is recognized rs one of the
most progressive men in the State.
Resolutions were adopted ndorsing the
louisville and Boston Exposiiions, and
recommending a State appropriation for
the Cotton Centennial, to be held in
1SS4-S5. This is the first time in the
history of this association that well
defined issue between mossbackism and
progress has been settled in favor OF the
latter.
Now this contains a misstatement in
the last sentence, and as that sentence is
highly discourteous and slanderous to
the State press, and especially that por
ton who supported Col. Shannon, as
well as direct insult to that gentleman
himself, it is but proper that the public
should be set right. There was no issue
made between progress and anti-pro
gress. We claim that our entire press,
is progressive. AS to the first sentence
| will say of that the assertion, if an as
sertlon, is false in toto, as the subject of
railroad supervision was never mentioned
that l have. heard. / have tried to find
one who had heard of it before reading
this telegram, and have faIed. Ii by
this sentence only an opinion is express>
ed, it is quite without foundation in any
occurrence at the Convention. Colonel
Shannon's vote of 40 against 81, when
this canvass on the one side and adher
euce to the old and modest custom of the
Convention on the other were considered,
is very complimentary. The resolutions
were passed without dissenting voice,
and not the result of victory, as would
be inferred from the language of the
telegram. The election was a purely
personal matter in the eyes of the Con-
vention, and men voted irrespective of
their views on any subject of legislation,

MsSsISsIPPIAND RAILROADS.

We feel that we have placed ourself
pretty fairly before the tiilers of the soil
in our previous remarks On this subject
of railroads Not only have we met their
approval, but encouragement has been
very kindly given us by mechanics, mer
chants, bankers, and in fact by all classes
that ire int rested i'll the matter. In
fact approval has been so general that
much of the embarrassment under which
We labored has been removed. A large
measure Of the disposition to dictate the
policy OF railroads and to interfere with
the freedom of their operations, springs
more from forgetfulness of the history of
TRANSPORTATION facilities than from any
real antagonism TO railroads rs a system.
Now to place this question ia plain and
practical light, where it will be under
stood and Appreciated by all, let us sup>
pose case that will obliterate the rail-
road system of the country at large, and
primitive means OF transportation will
have to be resorted to. Wipe the V. &
M. X. II. out of existence. If either
Vicksburg or Meridian should be the
best cotton market, how will the case
compare for expense OF transportation to
the planter forty or fifty miles from
either point, who has ten, twenty or
thirty bales of cotton to haul with his
wagons? Here come in two, four or six
four mule teams; feed for them, pay and
food for drivers, wear and tear OF wagons
AMI harness, the personal attention of
the planter and his expenses. Now
strike balance between his expenses
g., ;,,l,, a1,n I,xy
The planter will be 50 badly left that he
wouldn't know what hurt him. What is
true ms regards his wagon transportation
is quite as true rs regards moving his
family to either point, whether for pleas
ure or for purchases. This is very near
u simple, single rule of three PROPOSE
ton. Amy planter or farmer, or merN
chant who has to haul his own goods can
work it ont, and when. he does, we feel
quite confident he will not be 50 anxious
to ''set down" on railroads or any other
system OF public conveyance.
Ii is the wish of the HERALD to pre-
vail Oh its readers to look ut this ques-
ton fairly and literally, aud not give it
snap judgment. The people at large are
not opposed to railroads, they are not
indisposed to grant them every privilege
i'll reason, and rates of fare that will
enable them to meet The wants of the
public, and maintain themselves fairly
in condition to do So The trouble is
not with the people but with few poll
ticlans i'll every State who want to tnke
this matter nsa hobby Tor political pre-
ferment, AMI for personal gain. We do
not intend that the readers of HERALD
shall be SO misled if it is i'll our power to
attract their attention, and we propose
to make in effort to do SO: We will
reach and discnss the railroad commits
sion in cur next, and hope to place OR.

MAJ. J. NJ. SMYLIE, Swamp Land
Commissioner, has returned from
Washington where he has been en-
gagged adjusting the claims of the
State to the proceeds of large guam
titles Of swamp and overlooked lands
donated by Congress, and which have
been sold by the agents of the gov
eminent, and the proceeds paid into
the public treasury. BY the act of
Bird of March, 1857, these proceeds
we're ordered to be paid over to the
State, but its provisions have never
been carried out. The sum of $52,-
600, has already been conceded to be
due by the government on investiga-
ton, subject to the report Of a special
agent who is now making a joint lex
animation of the lands with Major
Smylie. The number of acres en-
braced in the grants approximates
three millions, and they have been
sold at prices ranging from 12l cents
to Sl,25 cents per acre. The proceeds
under the acts to be devoted to edu-
cational purposes,and the will amount
to a good round sum when collected.
