Ex-EMPRESs AND PRINCE.
An Interview Between Eugenie and
Plon Pl0n.

LONDON. February 16.-The Times pub
fishes an authoritative statement regarding
the interview Tuesday between ex-Empress
Eugenie and Prince Jerome Napoleon,
which, il says, has cleared up some private
misunderstanding existing between the
ex-Empress and the Prince, and led to
formal recognition of the latter as the head
of the Bonaparte family. The ex.Empress
was not called upon to express any opinion
of her kinsman's general policy, and could
not, consistently with the line OF policy
adopted by her while sojOurning in Great
Britain, do more than assure her cousin OF
her best wishes for any constitutional &C.
zion he may take towards bringing about a
plebiscite. The recent visit of the Empress
to Paris was q mark OF

If we could reach the eye or ear of every
Mississippi republican we would exhort them
to deal with no man who adheres to the
democratic organization until they are ready
to concode that they are to look to that party
for fair play and protection. Whenever the
democracy keep promises made against
themselves with republicans or any
other political opponents, then a blood
hound will divide beefsteak fairly
with house cat. In all the arts of politics
and in all the craft and cruelty necessary
to enable the minority to rule in republican
system, the democrats who thus condition

Change shapes With Proteus to advantage,

that section. Tho organized democracy re-
present only hostility to equal rights, Who
ever will squarely antagonise them can be

Lynch, Chalmers, and Cessor.

In your issue of this morning saw the fol-
lowing
One of the principal reasons why Gen. Chalmers
Is visiting Washington at this season is to clear
himself OF the charge which had been circulated
by his enemies In Mississippi that he had forged
| the following telegraphic dispatch
"WAsHINGToN, ID. c., July 6, lSS2-GEN. JAMES b.
CLEANERS, CARE OF JUDGE CHALMERS Lynch told
confidential friends here that second congressional
district would be made overwhelmingly demo-
cratic. The Lamar legislature would make two
republican districts, one OF which Lynch would
represent. can prove this statement.
JAMES ID. CEssoR"
It seems that Cessor, who is a Postofice depart
ment attache, had informed Lex-Congressman
Lynch that he had not sent the dispatch, and his
denial had been used as basis for the forgery
charge. Gen. Chalmers yesterday made the fol-
lowing statement to a correspondent:
"Cessor was called up yesterday before Post
master General Gresham at my request, and in
the presence of Judge Gresham and Mr., Gorham
stated that he had sent this dispatch to the tele-
graph office by friend, and that there was prefxed
to the dispatch the words 1t is currently reported
here that he had learned that his friend had
stricken out these words, and that the dspatc h
read by mo was an exact copy OF the dispatch
which his friend had sent me-"
A remark or two from me in this conneo.
tion will not be inappropriate. Chalmers has
n confidential friend in this city who holds a
clerkship IN the pension Office to whom
Chalmers wrote for information upon this
subject. My own opinion is that the origi-
nal draft Of the dispatch was prepared and
sent here by Chalmers himself. This, oi
course, is not positive assertion; IL is sim ply
my own opinion, based upon my knowledge
of the man and his peculiar methods. This
| pension office clerk TO whom Chalmers wrote
approached Cessor with prepared dispatch,
with the request that he sign the same. AS
Cessor holds his present position upon the
recommendation of Chalmers, he did not
desire to absolutely refuse to serve his
friend. still he would not sign it in its
original form, but so changed the phraseology
as to make il refer to the existence of II rumor
instead of making positive declaration, and
authorized that to be sent over his name. But
the pension office clerk who acted AS gobe.
tween refused to send the one he was author
lied to send, but sent the one which he evil
IDENTIFY believed would do the most good.
These arc the facts in the case, Another
thing; 1t will be noticed that the above dis.
patch is dated July 6. The Independent con-
vention before which the alleged Cessor dis
patch was read was held July 4. How it was
possible for q dispatch to be received aud read
before convention two days before it was
sent is a matter that l am necessarily com.
PEELED to leave to the public to infer.

CHALMERS, of Mississippi, is undoubtedly a
rascal who should be turned out of every
place. He is anti-bourbon. No enemy of the
democrstic party should be favored by the
republicans. Lot us harmonize and compro-
mise by letting the solid south have its way
in everything. The interests of 50,000,000
people, representing unknown or untold bill
lions of money, should not weigh anything
in the balance against the wishes of the democ-
racy. Let us surrender and give up the

WE print on the first page a special Wash
ington dispatch to the New York Tribune con-
cerning the conferences in this city of south
ern and anti-bourbon leaders which have
been had during the past few days. 1t will
be seen that Con. Malone and his friends are
not engaged in making nor yet in unmaking
presidential candidates. They are simply en-
gagged in an earnest effort to overthrow the
bourbon party, and are sure to be found faith
full and efficient allies of all who are bent
upon that purpose. The utterances of Gen.
Malone and of his intimate friend, Col. Brady,
the chairman of the republican executive
committee of Virginia, ought to satisfy every
fair-minded man that any republican who is
presented by the national convention can de-
pend on tho entire anti-bourbon vote of Vir-
ginia, if the convention treats them as friends
and welcome allies.

A BAD PLACE

The regent heavy rains have played
havoc with sidewalks and cats on Main
Street between 9th and sth streets. On
the north of Main Street, where the cut
is from five to fifteen feet deep, the whole
hillside is apparently sliding to the
south. The contractors completed
their work and il was accepted by the
CITY last Thursday. For the past month
they have been engaged in building the
sidevalks on both sides of the street.
Several times the bank has caved down
into the street, necessitatinR the removal
of large amounts of earth and repair to
the sidewalk. When, however, the Work
was finally completed and accepted
everything was cleaned up and IN as
good condition as possible to make II at
this season of the year. The fills, IN
MANY cases. had settled and had been
filled Up again and again and the side
walks repaired and read listed so that a
continuous and open plank walk was
COMPLETED on both sides of the street to
the top Of tie hill. Since that time
Thursday the ground has again taken
slide down hill, and yesterday, IN
several places. covered the sidewalk on
the north side. in others, pressing 1t
outward several feet into the street. In
one place. for q distance OF probably 100
feet. north from the street, the waole
sidehll has slid down until the side
walk il completely covered TO depth OF
from five to ten feet with stumps, logs
and earth. rhe stake which marked
the inner or bank line of the walk
could be seen standing as originally
| placed on the ground but moved south
ward fully twelve feet with the whole
hillside adjoining. The foundation Of
| houses built on that side, between 9TH
and 7th streets. are continually moving
and require constant attention. The
| ground Is clay, full of seams, and when
wet, slides down hill in masses. Event
ually the whole side hill must be graded
off for it is evident that unless strongly
bul kheaded it will be continually
moving southwark in wet weather. The
endeavor to keep the north line OF
sidewalk open for travel while the high
bank remains standing will be expen-
| sivs and of no permanent utility. Inc
south walk is not thus situated and car
be used, with suitable crossings, till dry
weather shall render 1t less costly t
make a permanent Improvement by
bulkheading or grading of the hill lde
1t would cost at least 1900 to put thu
north walk in shape to use now. with
surety that when the next heavy storm
! comes it would be as had as ever.
