The Presidents Southern Policy.

A Washington special of the IA
nltimo, to the Baltimore San says:
A distinguished visitor of the Pres.
ident TO day called TO his notice the
record OF most OF the Federal APP
poiutecs IN the SOnth, and the ur-
gent necessity tor the summary re-
mOval OF those who have violated
every principle of civil-service re-
form in using their offices for the
basest partisan purposes. The
President was informed that the
people of the South had prayed for
and struggled for the election of a
Democratic President more in the
hope and belief that they would be
relieved of the bad officers who
had been set over them than for
any other reason. The South he
said, was disappointed and disSat.
isied that the President had not up
to this time sho En any signs of II
purpose to come to it's aid in this
respect. The President replied
that he thoroughly understood and
appreciated all that had been said,
aud that lie was ANXIOUS to turn
his attention SO such u grave aud
Important object, as he regarded it
rs soon a. possible. "But," he con.
tinued, "my time is so entirely oc
cupled that | have been absolutely

dent said that when the Senate ad.
jOurned he had been under the i'm
preston that he would have more
leisure, but such was not the case
as the Senators were still there, and
and be was compelled to devote as
much tune to them as ever. He
said the consideration OF the diplO-
matte appointments had required
long and careful attention, and he
was happy that this work was COM.
paraJively disposed Of, or at all
events the appointments remaining
to be made could be determined up
on much more expeditiOusly, others
who had claims on his time shall
go away to take and act upon, not
only the matter which the visitor
had at heart, but all others which
had been necessanally delayed,
and it would be his aim TO give the
people OF the South reputable, hon
esl and efficient officials.

IUKA, Miss, April 27.-To the
editors OF the NeW MissiSsippiGR :
Since my announcement through
your able journal as Il candidate be-
fore the next Democratic State Con
vention for Governor, | have been
| constantly confined to my home by
IA painful atfliction, from which |
am still suffering, and which may
continue tor an indefinite time, and
in view of the fact that AT early
and tiresome canvass will be re-
quired,a and feeling inadequate to the
labor consequent upon such an un.
dertaking, l most respectfully with
draw from the canvass, and hereby
announce that / am no longer a
candidate.
The motives which actuated me
in becoming a candidate having
been criticised by IA portion of the
press of the State, l here assert
that my candidacy was prompted
by a desire to hold the Office for an
other term, and the belief that |
could serve the State acceptably.
A combination within the body of
the Democratic party tor the de-
feat of any candidate was as for
eign to my purpose as it has ever
been repusnant to my nature.
l take this occasion TO return my
sincere thanks to those of my
friends who have kindly assured
me of their confidence and support,
and to that portion Of the press ma
king favorable mention OF my eau
didacy.
Very respectfully, your obedient
servant, j. NJ. STONE.

A statement was made last week
by a certain individual that was
UNTRUE in every particular, and
we denounced it as such at the
time, and would now do the same
through our columns, but for the
assurance that it will be promptly
spauO'ced by its author, and we
have been urgently requested by
parties concerned to let it die a ma
tural death. The rebound will be
u bitter pill, but the way of the
transgressor is hard.

in matters of public interest, and
whatever appears in the DEMO
CRAT-STAR can be relied upon as
TRUE.

DEATH OF COL. VIM. A. CHAMPLIN


Last Tuesday we received II tele-
gram announcing the death of our
venerable FREUD, Col. VIM. A.
Champlin, of Pass Christian. He
had been in failing health for sev-
raj years, and his family and friends
had realized sometime since that he
would not be permitted to remain
with them long. Col. Champlin
was one of the oldest citizens of
the SeacOast. He was IA native of
Connecticut but came South when
a young man, a engaged in
merchandising for several years
in New Orleans; after which he was
admitted to the bar, settled at
Handsboro, Harrison county, where
lie lived many years. He was sew.
enty-six years of age at the time of
his death, had practiced his profess
sion for about forty-fve years, was
highly esteemed, both as a citizen
and as one of tie first lawyers of the
coast bar. He was ii Mason of good
standing, was a true friend aud a
heightened and honorable gentle
man. He reared a large and estl.
mable family, and with them we
most sincerely sympathiSe in their
sad bereavement.
