A GOOD MOVEMENT.

The Montgomery Dispatch has
taken the lead in a movement
which, We feel very sure, will
meet with a hearty co operation
throughout the South-the cree
ton of monument to the late
Father Ryan. The Dispatch says
"Poet, priest and patriot, whose
name and fame are dear TO us, as
they should be to mankind, but
whose grave, overgrown with the
uncanny of NATURES decorations,
proves us lax in our duty to his
hallowed clay. This monument to
Father Ryan. this patriotic tribute
of affection, we would suggest, de-
wolves upon the wives and moth
ers of the Lost Cause which he
so fervently defended with the
power of song, and the memory OF
which he has made lasting in i'm
passioned verse. It need not cost
much, this monument, since osten
tatlon would not be in keeping
with him whom it is proposed to
commemorate; and we add again
as a suggestion, that the ladies
throughout the South, wherever
Memorial Day is observed, take
up q collection, and let the pro
ceeds, whatever they may be,
much or little, be applied to such
a token of love and affection as
will keep the grave of the sanity
dead from the reproach of poster
ity. What say the pe0ple-the
wives and mothers yet left us as
heritage of a historic time-of q

This "Old Reliable" journal pub
lished at our State Capital, is now
completing the fftieth year Of its
existence, having been established
at Paulding in 1887. Its present
enterprising proprietor and bust
ness manager has been identified
with the paper since 1866. 1t is
one of the largest and best print.
ed newspapers in the Southwest,
and in the make up of its ample
pages embraces the general news
of the day, choice miscellany for
the home and farm, serial stories,
etc. Its department of State
News, conducted by Miss Kate
Power, the accomplished daughter
of the proprietor, is a valuable
and popular feature. 1t will con
tinue to publish Supreme Court
Cases as reported by W. r. Har-
per, Esq, during each term Of the
Court.
The regular subscription pr ce
is s1.50 per per year, but the pro
prietor being anxious to signalize
the Semi Centennial Jubilee, of
the paper, by large addition to
its list of regular readers, will send
it one year for one dollar to all
new names received during this
month and October; and any pres.
ent subscriber who will send two
dollars will have his own credit
extended one year, and the paper
sent for one year to any other
name that he may forward.

dent at his own request, placed

THE MASTER MIND.



The President is expected to re.
turn next week, and then Mr..
Bayard will take his vacation.
The latter is at present the only
Cabinet officer in the city. Sec
retary Lamar has gone off some
where, anu the Postmaster Gen.
eral is still absent. AS for Sec
retary EDdicott and Secretary
Whitney, they are absent from
their places of business so much
that their present prolonged alb
seence occasions no remark. 1t
is said to be q fact that the pres.
ent Cabinet officers have taken
more leave of absence than those
of any previous Administration.
The Secretary of War does not
spend one third of his time at
his office, and the Secretary of
the Navy is continually travelling
between New York City and
Washington. Attorney General
Garland writes here that he is in
good health and enjoying himself
at "Hominy Hill," Ark, safe from
the sharp criticisms and harsh at.
tacks of a venal press. The first
eighteen months of the present
Administration has developed the
fact that the best, clearest. head
ed and most successful Cabinet
officer selected by the President
is Secretary Lamar. He has done
more good substantial work for
the country than any of his asso-
ciates. This is a little singular, as
it will be remembered that when
he was appointed it was generally
predicted that he would prove a
complete failure as Secretary OF
the Interior. 1t was said that he
was only dreamer devoted to
books and flowers, and that lie
was as unified as a child to do
the tedious detail work of the In
terror Office. Quite contrary to
those predictions, Secretary La
mar has to the surprise and pleas
ure of his friends completely mas.
tered the big and little matters oi
his great and expansive bureau
and is justly regarded to day as
the master mind in the Govern
ment at Washington.

The following is from the Zion
Messenger, a religious monthly
published in Vicksburg, Rev. s.
A. Cowan, a colored minister:
"The progress the negro has
made since bis emancipation is
marvellous, but the mass of them
are still ignorant. Politically they
are simply a machine. They don't
know nor care to know the sci
ence of government. The ballot
in the hands of such individuals is
not safe for the Nation, or for the
perpetuitv of good government.
Seventy-five per cent of the Negro
race cannot read nor write.n
There is q great deal of truth in
the foregoing. The presence of
this mass of ignorant voters in the
South has entailed q problem up.
on it's people. There is one solu-
tion for it: the establishment OF
an educational qualification as a
perquisite for voting, to apply to
whites and blacks alike. Mlssis-
sippi can take this step whether
or not the other Southern States
do 80, but in truth ench a require.
ment ought to be the law Of the
land and be In force IN every
