THE FRANCO-CHINEsE TREATY.
Jubilatiion IN Paris Over It's Sig
nature Troops to be Withdrawn
From Tonquin.

PARIS, May 13.-The newspapers are
jubilant over the signing Of the Franco
Chinese treaty. The cabinet to-day de-
decides pom gradual recall of por-
ton Of the French troops in Tonquin.
President Grevy has issued decree
for the formation of two regiments of
Tonquinese sharpshooters with French
officers.
The official Journal publishes the
text of the Franco Chinese convention.
China engages to recognize the present
and any future treaties that may be
made between France and AMMAN. In
view of the conciliatory attitude taken
by China and the patriotic wisdom of
Ii Hung Chang, France abandons all
claim to indemnity for losses during the
troubles between the two nations. Chi
ma consents to freedom of trade between
AMMAN, France and China, for the es-
tablisment of which a treaty of COM
meree will shortly be concluded. The
provinces of Einanghi, Quang-Lung and
Yunan will not be opened to general
trade, as was at first reported, but only
to the French.

At the Opera House and Iastltute
Hall.

The performance at the Opera House,
on Wednesday evening of last week, in
honor of the distinguished guests of the
city, was unique in more than one re-
spect, but it must strike all that it was
dependent for its success on none of the
adventitious aids common to public per
formances. That is to say, we went to
the place to which we had been invited
not knowing what weshould see or hear,
and therefore prepared for almost any
kind Of surprise. But who would have
imagined that public hall in Jackson
could be transformed into q Yeritable
garden, with arbors, snd wreaths, and
flowers. and birds, and the entire city
not know Of it. This patient, careful,
tasteful and artistic labor was done under
the inspiration of our fair friend, Mrs.
w. e. Gage, and that it deserved the
encomiums which our visitors pro-
nOunced upon it goes without saying.
The first number on the programme
was an overture by the YazoO City
Band, which was given with much ex-
preston, aud showed this band TO bethe
best in the State.
The chorus was well selected and the
singing of the kind with which anna
teurs seldom favor us. After the chorus
came the welcome address by Miss Cola
Barr, which we publish elsewhere. If
ANYTHING be needed 70 add beauty to
the address as 8 literary composition, It
was found in the graceful, easy and I'M
pressiye manner of its delivery. The
response of Mr.. Roseborough was APP
propriate to the occasion and came
fully ND to the measure Of expectation.
We haven't time to make special mem
ton Of all the members Of the admir-
ably selected programme but they we're
SO well given and received that it must
have been extremely gratifying to all
who formed part of the delightful com
pany.
The singing IL Mrs. Cage and Misses
Peak and d0rancy, and Messrs. Harris,
Hilxim and Julienne, and the recitations
Of Misses Cohen and Clay and Mrs.
Hobbs, we're all in harmony with the
general excellence of the programme and
the participants.
Nj. Luther Manship's character songs
kand recitations were admirable, and

ten, was the feature Of the evening

For Delegates at Large.

EDITOR CLARION: II it is in order /
would suggest Mr.. C. E. Wright, of the
Vicksburg Herald, for delegate at large to
the Democratic National Convention. He
has been identified with the press for many
years, and so far as your correspondent
knows, has never asked or received any
thing from the party which he has so faith
fully served. His paper will be expected
to lead the fight in this State this fall, as
it Is the largest and most influential daily,
and it would be very proper thing 70
send him to Chicago as one Of our dele
gates.
use the columns Of THE CLARION to
place Mr.. Wright in nomination, notwith-
standing the sharp antagonisms which
have occurred between it and The HER
AID, because know you do not treasure
up past differences, and would be the first
to do honor to your brother Of THE HER-
AID. II.

Shooting IN the Dark.

Sunday night about 8 o'clock as young
Robert Boyle was on his way to his
fathers house he was called by another
boy, whose voice he recognized as that
of Charley Wiley and upon wheeling
around was fired at. none of the
shot however, taking effect. The
weapon used was an old musket, to
the ram rod OF which was attached q
note signed by Wiley, and directing
where the gun should be sent, and to
whom it belonged. Wiley was arrested
in Jackson on Monday and brought tC
Raymond, Tuesday where he stood trial
and was bound over to wait the action
of the Grand Jury. The community il
very justly incensed at this bold attemp'
to commit crime as dastardly as it il
cowardly.-Raymond Gazette.

A Model Hotel and Model Landlord

Aberdeen Examiner.
1t was our fortune during the recent
session of the Press Convention at Jack
son, to share with hundreds of other
guests the thoughtful and courteous at
tentien of DIR. p w. Peoples, the admir-
able manager and proprietor of the
Edwards House, and we feel it almost
q duty to the travelling public to express
our hearty and disinterested appreciat-
ion of the uniform attention, thoughtful
consideration and genuine courtesy on
the part of not only the proprietor but
his clerks and employees, that conduces
so much to the pleasure and comfort of
the guests of this admirable hosiery.
To be sure the patrons of hotel pay
for attention and are entitled to it, but
there is an indefnable something in the
shape of entertainment that cannot be
bought or paid for; something that some
men have the power to give, that makes
the patron feel that it is almost privi-
lege to pay a bill, and this sensation is
common to those who have partaken of
the hospitality of DIR. Peoples, of the
Edwards House, at the State Capital.

The recollection of the magnificent
hospitality of the people of Jackson and
the handsome manner in which the
fourth estate" was entertained on every
hand, is so fresh in our mind that we
shall have to digest it thoroughly before
we can get in proper condition to do
justice to the subject. The reader will
observe from the imperfect abstract
given elsewhere that something more
then hurried notice will be required to
properly acknowledge the generous and
lavish hospitality of our capitalism
friends, and we shall therefore defer
more extended notice to another day.
Suffice it to say, now that Jackson has en-
deared herself to the press gang of Mis-
sissippi and her brave sons and fair
women will ever occupy place near to
their hearts.
