How to Eat an OYSTER

Don't drown him deep in vinegar,
Or season him at all;
Don't cover up his shining form
With pepper, like a pail:
But gently lift him from his shell
And firmly hold your breath,
Ihen, with your eager tongue and teeth
Just tickle him 10 death.

CHANGED to notice little child, some 3
years of age, at play with an immense
New Foundland dog on the lawn in
front of an elegant residence. In the
rough and tumble sport Of the two the
child hurt his dumb playmate SO that
he snapped rather angrily at the infant.
A lady, who stood watching on the
porch, cried out: Nero, amt you
ashamed of yourself to frighten baby?
Go away, you bad dog" Poor Nero
skunk away whining and irresolute.
Suddenly he sprang toward a towering
rose-bush, bit off one of the fragrant
blossoms, and, with many extravagant
capers, laid it at the feet of the little
child, and then bounded toward the
mistress to receive the caress of for
giveness.

The Galveston News opens It's
Columns on the Texas State Land
Board.
GALVESTON, Aug. 17--At a meeting
of the State land board last Tuesday,
resolution was passed whereby the
board agreed to full exhonerate. aquit,
release and hold harmless from all
pains and penalties, suit, costs Of pro-
ceedings. damages and liabilities
against the Galveston News for or on
account of anything it might publish
touching any member of the board in
the management of the land affairs Of
Texas. The News had intimated that
it possessed certain damaging informa-
ton touching the management
Of State lands, which it feared to pub
lish because Of an exceedingly string
ent libel law which gagged the press
of Texas. BY reason Of this law and q
recent adverse decision Of the Supreme
Court Of Texas, the proprietors Of the
News have just paid 10000, hence
their desire to be insured. Inits issue
Of yesterday the News opened out on
the Land Board by reviewing its work.
The paper now makes claim that this
Board, by its neglect and mismanages
ment, has lost to the school funds
Of the State the sum Of ST.
100000, which should have been
collected under the law from
cattlemen during the past IL months.
The News says that in F February, 1884,
an act was passed directing the land
board to appoint grass commissioners,
whose duties should be to ascertain
by constant inspection the area of
grass belonging to the State, and being
occupied by cattlemen without leases
of any character. Under this law all
occupyers of such lands were compel.
ed to pay an occupation tax. Twenty
million acres Of free grass lands Of
this character have been constantly
grazed upon since the passage Of the
law, yet the land board only last week
appointed and sent out the
grass commissioners upon whose re-
port the tax could only be collected.
The law makes no provision for back
taxes, hence the State has lost
nearly $2,00O,O00 which has simply Re.
mained in the pocket of cattlemen. In
making these statements the News Ia
one breath acquits Remembers Of tho
land board Of intentional wrong, bat
in the next breath 1t says: This loss
Of Sl,750,000 was not accidental and
nothing being accidental II Is preumsa-
bly, the result Of intelligent design.

WARREN'S CANDIDATE FOR AT
TORNEY GENERAL.

All of this portion of the State will
unite in pressing the Hon. T. Marshall
Miller for Attorney General. The
county of Warren is justly proud Of
this talented young lawyer, and feels
that she has right to invite attention
to his merits and attainments. In
this county the movement began, which
resulted in the disenJhrallment of the
whole South. This State, and all the
Southern States, must forever hold in
high esteem the name and fame Of
Vicksburg and Warren county, and
although Mr.. Miller's candidacy is not
based on past deeds, and his friends
only refer to them, to secure a critical
examination Of the talent and worth
of this distinguished son Of Mississip.
pi, they have right to couple that
reference with the glorious deeds and
inestimable services of this section of
the South.
He Is competent, faithful, prompt
and the Democracy which he loves so
well and has served so faithfully, can
make no better choice.
The Warren County Convention,
one Of the largest and most enthu-
siastic county political Eodies which
ever assembled in the State, thus re-
fers to and endorses Mr.. Miller:
Resolved, That the candidacy of the
Hon. T. NJ. Miller for the office OF at
torney-general of Mississippi, com,
mands the hearty support and the en-
thusiastic appreciation of the Democ-
racy of Warren county. AS citizen
whose worth commands the esteem and
respect of his countrymen,, a gen.
tleman ever courteous and affable,
lawyer of great industry, accurate
thought, and extensive learning, he
would bring to the discharge of the
duties of that high office an equipment
equalled by few and surpassed by none.
His life is shining example of
fidelity to duty in all its relations. and
is crowned by devotion to theprinci-
pies and fortunes of the party of Jefeer-
son, which gathered strength from
disaster, and steadily grew apace with
thickening storm. A thoughtful OBJ
server, with large experience in public
affairs, a liberal scholar and a gener-
Gus gentleman, we present him to the
Democracy of Mississippi, the peer of
the proudest of Mississippi's proud
sons, with the assurance to our fellow
citizens of Mississippi, that we know
should he receive the honorable Office
to which he aspires he will so dis
charge its duties, as to reflect credit
upon himself, give honor and strength
to his party, and add luster to the
glory of his State.
Entertaining these views and hold
ing him in this high esteem, our dele
gates to the State convention are
hereby instructed to vote solidly for
him first, last and all the time, and to
use all honorable means to secure his
