The southrons. Triumph.


The victorious Volunteer Eouthrons
arrived from Aberdeen Sunday morn
ing at 9 o'clock with the 81 900 il
their pockets. The FiTemen's Silver
CorDet Band and the Vicksburg
Rifles, commanded BY Lieut.. Piazza,
owing to the illness Of Capt. Marshall,
met them at the depot. The Rides
fired volley with blank cartridges as
the train rolled In and the cheers Of
the crowd combined to make the music
for the gallant winners. After q few
minutes delay the parade was formed
and marched down Washington street,
followed by tremendous crowd
Of all classes of citizens. The splendid
Cornet Band led the way, the South
rons came next dressed In their natty
fatigues, with guns adorned with
flowers and ribbons, and the Rifles
brought up the rear, wearing their
beautiful new uniforms for the FIRST
time in Vicksburg, and white ribbons
on each gun, except Sergeant Tillman's,
which was wrapped in the victorious
blue. The band played as well as they
always do, the Southrons looked proud
of their well earned victory, and the
Rifles looked as modest as their white
ribbons and seemed to take an honest
pleasure in Nhe triumph Of their older
comrades in.arms.
Washington street was beautifully
decorated from end to end with the
colors Of the two companies,
but the most beautiful sight Of all was
the sea Of faces which lined either side
and overdowed the balconies and win
dows. Ladies waved their congratu-
lations, and our most prominent busi-
ness men stood on the corners and
cheered the boys, and probably looked
back through the mists Of twenty-five
years to the days when they too
marched in all the glorious pomp and
circumstance of war amid the shTill
notes Of the FIFE and drum and the ap-
proving smiles and tears Of women.
The Rifles formed into line and halted,
in front Of the Southrons' armory; the
! Southrons counter-marched and halted
facing the Rifles, and the two com
panies presented arms and cheered each
other, thus enacting the last scene In
the pretty pageants which have made
Vicksburg so picturesque for the past
two weeks. Capt. Searles invited the
Rifles to join his company in some
refreshments at their armory and both
companies broke ranks and accepted
the invitation. Toasts were drank and
speeches made to everybody's entire
satisfaction and the hemeetlng adjourned
subject to call after the drill in Mo-
Yember.

setts Central railroad were being conveyed to
their work by an engine and fiat car, ten on

made a short address, 1t taking the
form OF a verbal report to the Board
of Trustees and formally turned over
the buildings to the State together with
the keys to same.
Gov. Lowry upon the part Of the
State and the Board of Trustees. ac-
cepted thelbuildings, warmly commend
ing the building committee for the
faithful, efficient and thorough man
ner in which they had discharged their
duties. He reviewed the history Of the
college and spoke of the doubts he had
entertained of the propriety of its es-
tablishment. He said that he was
firmly convinced now, after visit
here. that the institution was not only
a necessity but would prove a grand
success. He spoke of the vast i'm
proVements of the age and the invit-
ing and constantly increasing field
there was for woman's labor. He
dwelt upon the numerous advantages
Columbus possessed over any other
town in the State for the location of
the College, specifying particularly
our splendid water works system and
the general advancement of the town.
He predicted great success for the in
stitution from the day of its inaugu.
ration and closed by formally declaring
it open and turning over the keys to
President Jones, whom he warmly
commended for his efficient labors in
the cause. Gov. Lowry's address
evoked continued and hearty applause.
DR.. Jones in replying to Gov. Low
rvs address spoke Of the great re-
sponsibility he felt in assuming charge
Of SO magnificent an institution; he
hoped that each and every pupil would
lend him her assistance and felt sure
that he would have the hearty CO.
operation of the people of Columbus
in its management. He closed by
formally welcoming his pupils.
Mrs. E. G. Peyton, Of Hazlehurst,
who, from its incipiency has taken a
lively interest in the college, was call
ed for and in few we'll chosen re-
marks deprecated her ability to make a
speech, but expressed the pride she felt
in the State and in the College, feeling
sure, she said, that Mississippi's
daughters were now in safe hands.
Mrs. Peyton was enthusiastically ap-
plauded.

Scruggs, the opening exercises of the
State Female College were over aDd

TIE WHOLE TICKET.

There must be no cessation of work
by the Democratic party until every
officer on the ticket is elected. The
State Senator, the Assessor, the Board
of Supervisors, the Magistrates and
indeed all the officers are important.
It is feasible now to elect the entire
reform ticket, which will be of incal-
culable value, and we appeal to all
good citizens, white and colored,
not to abate one particle of effort. That
Captain Worrell has a walkover is
positive proof that the whole ticket
can be elected.
There are very many urgent reasons
why this should be done. Outside of
the great Importance Of the Senator
ship and Assessorship, it would place
Vicksburg in very unenviable plight
it Messrs Bachelor and Hill should
be beaten by our shameful'neglect. The
county is our source Of reliable Demo-
cratic power and deserves all praise for
its course in this campaign. Let Vicks-
burg show that she is a democraticcity,
and we guarantee our county friends
will take care of the balance.

The State Female College at Colum.
bus opened with about four hundred
students, including those from the
city Of Columbus. Hon. Marshall
Miller, one of the Trustees, says the
building is complete in every particu-
lar, and the faculty is of high order
of talent. This promising beginning
is sufficient evidence of the want of
such an institution, and the wisdom of
the Legislature, which gave it to the
State. Let us hope that future Legis-
latures will continue the work so aus.
piciously begun.
