Hon. W. II. Nash, of Starkville, for
Attorney-General.

EDITOR CLARION: The many friends
of Wiley \. Nash, of Starkville, be-
speak for him the nomination for the
high and responsible Office of Attorney
General While strongly advocating
his claims We by no means underestimate
those of the many gentlemen, all
worthy sons of Mississippi, whose names
have peen presented for the position.
But the friends of Wiley Nash think
that he has high claims, which they de-
sire to present to the people through
your columns.
The military service which a man
renders to his country outranks all other
that he can be called upon to contribute.
He rallies to the flag that is unfurled
before him, to follow its folds with
devoted patriotism to victory or defeat.
Guided by the nobest instincts of
human nature, he walks in the track of
duty, which conscience clearly points
out. He sacrifices home, family, oppor-
tunities-all-to his country, and when
his generals have ordered the flag to be
furled, whether as conquered or a con
queIing banner, under whose folds he
has fought so well, he cheats his sword
into pillow share and his spear into a
pruning hook "-returns to the paths OF
peace and devotes himself to the good
of society, setting TO his fellow men an
example of citizenship worthy of imita.
ton. Do we draw picture in which
you recognize the heroic Confederate
soldier of nearly twentyfour years ago
Such man was Wiley Nash. A mere boy
when the great war commenced he offered
his sword to his country and it was &C
cepted. How CALAMITY he bore himself
whether in the shock of battle, or on the
scouting expedition, or wherever he was
called to go, ask his comrades who com
| posed Harvey's Scouts, that famous
band commanded by Addison Harvey
whose deeds of prowress and usefulness
| to our cause, were not unworthy Of
| Marion's men, or the partizans of any
war. When peace came, the boy soldier
sought the halls of our University, t
complete the education which had beer
broken in upon, by the rude blasts Of
war. Graduating there he studied law
and sapidly rose to the front ranks Of
| his profession. The same qualities tina
| had made Wiley Nash a good soldier
made him a successful lawyer, and hi
fellow-citizens soon called him to tn,
District Attorneyship of his District
He filled this office, so important to tn,
well being of society in highly salts
| factory manner, and elected the com
mendation of all his fellow citizens 70
the zeal and ability which he displayed
in that capacity. He became one of tn
best known members of the last Legis
lature, and by his energy on his com
mittees work, and his eloquence in ad
vocating bills he championed, his circl
Of well-wishers, which before was con
fined to his own district, became cock
tensive with the State. So as soldier an,
citizen, Wiley Nash has proved himsel
worthy of high honors at the hands o
the people whom he has served so vel
and his friends nominate him in advanc
for the Office of Attorney General, a
Office in the line of his profession, an
for which his training and talents EN-
nently fit him. Will some fellow-soldie
second the motion?

The Dynamiters

There were three explosions of dyna-
mite in London on Saturday evening
last about , O'clock. One near the
House of Commons in the Parliament
buildings, another at Westminster Hall
near by, and the third at London Tower
A great deal of excitement and alarm
was caused but the damage done was
not great considering the force used.
AT the Tower six persons were injured
seriously and fourteen slightly, and at
the Parliament buildings, four seriously
and ten slightly. The Pail Nal Gazette
says: although there is a great litter.

Resolred, That the Senate of the
United States has heard with indigna-
ton and profound sorrow of the attempt
to destroy the House of Parliament and
other public buildings in London, and
hereby expresses its horror and detesta-
ton of such monstrous crimes against
civilization.
Several arrests have been made but no
satisfactory clew TO the perpetrators of
the outrage has been discovered.

Our Exhibit at the Exposition.

The Mississippi exhibit at the Expo
sition is attracting great deal of at
tention, particularly from Northern and
Western men. We are reliably inform
ed that not day passes but what some
enterprising citizen from those sections,
after being carefully shown through the
exhibit and noting the great variety and
fine quality of our States resources,
leaves for some particular vicinity to
more fully investigate the country, soil,
etc. The Mississippi Coast, with COM
mendable enterprise, made magnificent
showing of its products and COM
menced almost Immediately to reap the
benefits which always accrue from judi
cious advertising. Last week, among
the many who expressed themselves
delighted with all they saw in the De-
partment, was Rev. S. J. Harmeling, of
Dakota, who, representing some fifty
families, was looking for more congo
NAL cline. He spent one whole day in
looking over the Mississippi exhibit, left
the next morning for Handsboro, and
the following items, taken from the
Gulf Coast advertiser of the 23d, show
the result:
Rev. S. J. Harmeling, Presbyterian
minister, from Marion Junction, Dakota,
was here last week on a prospecting
tour. He is delighted with this section
in all respects and will SO report to his
friends in Dakota. He came here in the
interest of some fifty families, and next
spring the colony will arrive.
Mr.. Horton is better pleased the long

not been told him, He will remove his
family from Dakota in the spring.

one of mental and moral philosophy

THE Cincinnati Post, speaking of the
recently published account of the battle
of Shiloh by Gen. GRANT says: "He
makes a mean and palpably unjust fling
at General McCooK. He winds up the
battle with childish Munchausen story
of final charge which he led. The
paper is unworthy of soldier, and is
illiterate in style, is low in motive, and
is unworthy of magazine except as
selling sensation. General GRANT
challenges history when he reflects on
HALLEcK for suspending him after
Donelson. If he had been wise he would
have left that out. The reason was that
after the surrender of Donelson, he and
his family went on a big spree to Nash
vile. GRANTS habit was that when he
got started on a spree he had to have it
out For several days HALLEcK could
not hear from him, and they were very
important days. HALLEcK is dead, but

AN ARAB DEFEAT.
The First Battle With FL Mahdi's
Forces.

A despatch from General WoLsET.EY,
dated "Korti, January 81" gives an
account of an engagement between Gen.
eral STEWART, with a force of some
1900 men, and the Rebels numbering
between eight and ten thousand, at the
Abu-K Wells, about twenty-three
miles from Metemneh.
On the approach of the Arabs, Gener-
al STEWART formed his troops into a
hollow square, with his field pieces at
the corners and with the invalids and
the provisions in the centre. The
Arabs made their attack in a tumult-
uous rush, directed principally upon
the side of the square held by the hus-
sars. This side of the square was broken
at one time during the fight, and the
officers attribute this disaster to the
unruly conduct OF the camels, which
got powder burned and became uncon-
trollable. The line was speedily reform
ed, and the discipline of the men was
splendid throughout the action. A
steady and deadly fire was kept up by
! the hussars and the mounted infantry,
while the artillery maintained an emf
lading fire, which piled dead Arabs up
in heaps. The space in front of tie
British right flank was a veritable
slaughter pen, and when the Arabs were
finally repulsed they left 500 of their
number dead upon the field. The num-
Der of their wounded who were able to
march or be carried from the field is
estimated at two thousand.
The British losses we're nine commits
stoned officers killed and nine wounded,
and sixty-fve non-commissioned officer 5
and men killed, and eighty five wounded.
Among the officers killed was Lieuten-
ant Colonel FREDERICK GUsTAyUs BUR

and writer, and well known as the hero
| Cf the Ride to khiva"
The Rebels fled towards Metemneh
which is now the objective point OF
