Hon. E. Barksdale, for Governor.

EDITOR CLARION: As | have noticed
a good number of communications speak
ing for different gentlemen for different
offices, and as | have not seen any from
this (Smith) county, with your permits
sion, through the columns of your valu.
able paper, l will make mention of a
man who would fill the gubernatorial
chair as ably as the ablest-the honest
john Marshall Stone, who has won the
sobriquet of the best Governor that
Mississippi ever had, not excepted. The
man | speak of needs no encomium at
my hands. He is no stranger to Missis-
sippians. He has been so long iaboring
for the success of Democratic principles,
that he is well known in the remotest
and most obscure corner of the State
In the darkest days of Radicalism be
worked necessarily and untiringly and
never ceased his efforts and labors till he
had, with many others, succeeded in
stripping the carpet-baggers and scala
wags of their power and banished them
from a people that they had been plum
dering and pillsgiug ever since first they
crossed the line of our State. A man
who led the van for United States Sem
ator in 1880, for over fifty ballots, where
were enlisted the friends of the brave
and chivalrous General J. n. George, the
gallant and dashing Walthall, that true
and tried, noble and faithful, Col. o. r.
Singleton.
A man who made formidable race for
Governor in 1881, and had it not been
for his own redoubled effort to put down
a second term, it is conceded fact that
the chair of State would to-day be filed
!, l. h. tod
have held the position for ten years,
more than twice as long as any of his
predecessors A man who was nominated
by reclamation for Congress in 1882, and
it, too, the first time he had stood for
the place since the war. / have refer
ence to Hon. E. BarksSale of your own
city.
In connecting Maj. Barksdale's name
with the Governofship it is not my
intention to detract anything from any
Of the probable candidates that might
aspire to fill that honorable position
with its many burdens and grave cares,
but there is not enc of the distinguished
gentlemen who has been spoken of for
the Office who would stand shadow of
chance to carry this county except our
immediate representative in Congress,
Hon. O. R Singleton, if Maj. Barksdale
would stand for the place. The people
0f this county love him as they do Col
o. b Singleton, and that is enough hold
for any man to have ON any people.
Were Hon. II Barksdale but to intimate
that he had aspirations in the same di-
rection that he had in 1881. his many
friends ID these parts would rally round
him like soldiers did their beloved gem

War N ews.

The French suffered serious defeat at
the hands of the Chinese at Long Son or
Friday, and were at last accounts in full
retreat, having suffered severely in the
loss of men and munitions of war
! Gen. NEGRIER, who was in command
was seriously wounded, and it is rumor-
ed that he has since died. Dispatches
from Paris, dated on Monday, say that
there is intense excitement there, caused
by the receipt of the disastrous news
from China. The Chamber Of Depu-
ties having refused to consider the gov
ernment's request for credit of S40,-
0o0, 900 on account of military opera
tons in China, Prime Minister FERRY
Immediately announced the resignation
of the entire ministry, which President
GBEvY accepted. War with China viii
be officially declared and the army rein
forced by $4,000 men.
The prospect of a peaceful solution of
the differences between England and
Russia as to the Russo-Afghan frontier,
is said to be greatly improved, though
preparations for war are progressing
quite actively.
In Egypt Gen. GRAHAM has completed
his arrangements for an advance in the
direction of Tamai to-day, at which
place the Rebels are said to be congre-
gated in large numbers and determined
to fight. A defeat for the British will
be disastrous, because should they engage
in battle it win be with the knowledge
that they are fighting against great odds,
and when they yield the hordes of
OsMAN DIGNA will press them so closely
as to make an orderly retreat impossible.
If, on the other hand, the British shall
be successful in hotly contested en-
gagsment the loss to the Rebels which
will result from the superior arms and
discipline of the British may so demon
alize them as to make the work of clear
ing the road to Berber a comparatively
easy task. We shall wait the result of
the conflict with much interest.
In Central America Gen. BARRIos
does not seem to have been driven from
his declared purpose of uniting the Eve
States under one government. He is
now at the head of considerable army
advancing on San Salvador, whose forces
are hardly able to cope with him. Mex
icois actively engaged in preparations to
sustain the autonomy of her sister re-
publics, and if BARRIos perssveres in his
scheme We mxy look for some bloody
news frow that quarter.
As if to make matters still more ex.
citing man named RIEL has organized
rebellion Of the half-bresds and In
dians in the Saskatchewan couptry in the
Province Of Manitoba, lying directly
north Of the wsstsrn half ef Dakota. and
nearly III Of Montana. Our Canadian
friends Arc greatly aeitated q tie belief
that there win ~ lighting nearer home
than the 6ondan o. Tho Afghan frontier.

How the Papers Stand.
Brandon Republican.

Brandon Republican.
An anti-Lowrr organ gives the names
of fourteen papers in this State that are
opposed to the re election of Gov Low
ry. Some are for Walker, some for Car
ter, some for Peatherston, some fol
Singleton, some fer Houston, and Others
for anybody to be at Lowry. No five OF
them are for the same man, and major
ity of them are plpers of very small cir
culation and little influence.
Seeing this list we concluded to look
over the papers Oh our table and see
how many were s. raight out for Lowry,
and here is the result:
Natchez Daily Democrat, Vicksburg
Daily CONNER, ial-Herald, Jackson
CLARION, jackson State Ledger, Ray.
mond Gazette, Port Gibson Reveille,
Ripley Sentinel, Kosciusko Star, Vino
ma Advance, Greenville Times, Crystal
Springs Meteor, Brookhaven Leader,
Forest Register, IIattiesburg Herald,
Gulf Coast Advef tiser, Kemper Herald,
Wcstyilie New, Sea Coast Beacon,
Biloxi Herald, d. rant News, Ashland
Register, CotfeeFiiIe Times, Aberdeen
Examiner, Canton Pickett, Rosedale
Leader, Macon Sun, Brandon Republi
can, louisville Signal, Pearl River
News, Valley Flag.
A great many papers have not yet
expressed a preference for any one, pre-
fering to wait Until the Convention
makes its selection, when they will vote
for the nominee. The list shows that
nearly all the leading and influential
papers that have expressed preference
are for Lowry, and that more than twice
as many have expressed preference
for him than for all other candidates
combined.
Our respected Contemporary has made
a mistake in CHASING The CLARION
with the papers that are pronounced in
their preference for Gov. LOWRY. THE
CLARION has expressed no preference,
and win not, for any candidate for Office,
pending the nomination.

The Authorship.

TIPPAH COUNTY, Miss, March 81, 'S5.
EDITOR CLARION: 1t is about the
usual time, on election years, for aspi-
rants to make announcements for the
various State officers. In fact some have
already announced in the newspapers
for the ensuing election. Among them
the names of several clever gentlemen
appear for Auditor of Public Accounts,
but | fail to see the name of one who
has been favorably spoken of for this
position, in different portions of the
State. | allude to Noxubee county's
fayorite son, Robert G. Patty. If l
mistake not. this gentleman developed
strength before the State Democratic
Convention four years since, for Auditor,
second only to the present incumbent OF
the Office.
1t is true, however, that several papers
have recently suggested Mr.. Patty's name
and spoken of his special fitness and
qualifications for this, the most impor-
tant Office in the State, to tax payers. Mr..
Patty's friends-and from the besC infor-
nation 1 can gather, he has host of
them, in every section of the State-be-
lieve that he has lost nothing, but on
the other hand has gained much, in
popularity since the last quadrennial
| State Convention.
They want to know whether he will
ask the nomination at the hands of the
next Convention?
Very Respectfully, HATCHIE.

WASHINGTON, March II, 1855.
EDITOR TUPELo JouRNAL-My esteem
ed Friend-Your letter has been before me
for some days past, and should have met
an earlier reply, but l have delayed max
Ing public announcement as to my candi-
dacy for Governor of the State OF Missis-
sippi, hoping the slight breeze which set in
that direction would seon subside, and my
name dropped from the list of probable
candidates. But friends from different
parts of the State continue to write to me
on the subject, and in Justice to them can
no longer remain silent. | therefore take
this method of making answer to their kind
enquiries and solicitations. | am not and
cannot be candidate for the nomination
for Governor of Mississippi at the ensuing
State Convention. Were we confronted by
an enemy who threatened disaster to our
party, and my services were deemed neces-
sary to secure victory, / would forego all
personal considerations and step into the
arena to do battle for our time-honored
principles. do not, however, take this
view of the subject, but regard the present
phase OF politics in Mississippi as forebod-
ing no evil, but full of hope and encourage
ment. generous rivalry as to who shall
carry our banner to victory will direct
public attention to the merits OF several
aspirants and secure proper nomination.
This being done, all viii unite under our
chosen leader and insure success. The
Democracy of our gallant State must not
be rent asrnder BY prefeien ces for indiyid-
uals. Men may indulge their aspirations,
and one and another may rise, falter or
fall, but our principles must remain stead
fast, intact, and every good Democrat must
guard them at any reasonable sacrifice. /
return my hearty thanks 10 friends who
have thought proper to mention my name
IN connection with the Office OF Governor
and to Journalists who have commented
kindly on the subject.
IN, very respectfully,
Eour frieud and obedient servant,
