The Canadian Seizure.

The seizure of an American fishing
vessel, the David J. Adams, of Glouces-
ter, in Digby Harbor, by the Canadian
authorities has been the occasion of
much ill-tempered criticism of the Ad-
ministration and especially of the State
Department by the Republican press.
1t is admitted that the vessel was not
fishing within the Canadian water-Iine,
but she was buying bait, and this was
regarded AS presumptive evidence of her
intention to take fish within that line,
and such we suspect is the fact
The right to purchase bait is not guar
anteed specifically by the treaty in force
between the United States and Great
Britain, which only secures the rights
of hospitality, but on the other hand it
is not denied by any express statute of
the Canadian Government.
1t must be manifest that the substan-
tial privilege which American fishermen
desire to have secured to them is not the
right to purchase bait, but to use it
within the prohibited line, in the prose-
cution of their calling, and as this right
is not secured by the treaty in force, it
should be the subject of another treaty.
We doubt not that Mr.. Bayard is
alive to the interests of our fishermen,
and will exhaust his diplomatic powers,
to secure for them every privilege they
enough to keep cool, and not criticise
the Administration because it refuses to
accept as a casus beli the effort of
Government to prevent the
infraction of its laws by citizens of the
United States.

AUGUSTA, Miss, June ID, 1856.
EDITOR CLARION According to request
] send you this as an item of news from
this part of the State-"The Mighty East"
as it is sometimes termed.
The election sFor," or Against the
sale of intoxicating liquors was held in
this county yesterday. The result you see
by the enclosed official return is in favor
OF the prohibition ticket. The election
passed off very quietly all over the
county.
There has been considerable interest
taken for several weeks by the prohibit
tionists but little interest has been taken
here by the swet" men, although they pre-
cipitated the election.
The liquor traffic is subject that |
have given considerable attention to for
the last few months, and | am really sur
prised that more of the counties of the
State do not abolish the sale of alcoholic
liquors as beverage. 1t is true that a
good revenue accrues from its sale, but as
the people who buy of the retailer pays the
license and pays the whisky man good
bonus besides, it seems to me that the peo-
pie ought to be educated to the point of
paying the revenue and saving the bonus
Some say that lecturing does no good,
but that is very great mistake, for L am
sure that if it had not been done in this
county that we would have had whisky
shops in several places in the csunty. The
prohibitionists had but a short time to
work, but they organized with vim and
had good men in the field right from the
start, and did good service.
Crop prospects are not at all fiattering
here now. The crops are suffering in this
vicinity for rain. All the river lands were
injured by the overflow during the time
from the 9th of April TO the 4th or 9TH of
May, and farmers having ploughed the
lands and planted most of it, lost all their
work besides good deal of fertilizing.
the loss is very great indeed, and will
work a hardship on them next year, and
may be for several years to come, as a
great many were not able to replace fences
and repair damages. A few farmers had
bought ''bone dust and put it on the low
river and creek lands, and had il all wash
ed off. / think it certainly ought to be a
dear lesson to them
Very respectfully,
|. III. G. Cook.

party" He has studied its record to no
purpose. Four-fifths of the Democratic
Representatives voted for the resolution
Of Mr.. Thompson, of Kentucky (him-
self representative of the largest
whisky district in the Union); and the
Democratic platform pledges the party
to put the heaviest tax on luxuries, and
the lightest on the necessaries of life L
am standing on the platform. He is Oh 1t.
Neither the manufacturers nor the
dealers in whisky have asked the repeal
of the tax. The sentiment in favor OF
continuing it is universal, except among
those who want it repealed in order to
furnish a pretext for keeping up the
high tariff en- the necessaries of life.
There areipractical and legitimate is
sues of paramount Importance in which
the people are vitality interested, OF
| which my distinguished competitor ha'
defined his position, as shown by the
Congressional Record; but they vii
probably be the subject of a future let

Appeal from the Chancery Court of
Coahoma county. Hon. W. G.. Phelps,
Chancellor
In March, 1880, Mrs. E. d. Rozelle
and her husband, A. B. Rozelle, exc
cuted their promissory note for S70S0,
with interest at ten per cent. per annum,
payable twelve months after date, in
favor of P. G. Dickerson & Son. This
note was secured by mortgage ON GER
tain lands, the property of Mrs. Rozelle
In March, 1882, this note was replaced
by another note for $1104S.25, due twelve
months after date, with ten per cent.
interest from maturity, which latter
note was signed by and payable to the
same parties as the first, and included
in its face some other loans from the
Dlckersons to the ROzelles. It was Sc
cured by mortgage on the same proper
ty as the first note Mrs. Rozelie died in
1884, leaving two minor children, Mag
nus e. and Aodie NJ. Rozelle. Ia 1885,
+. G. Dickerson died, leaving w. III. and
III. A. I. Dickerson, his executors. These
latter were about to foreclose the mort
gage given to secure the last note, when
A. B. Rozelle and the two minor chill
drea of Mrs. Rozelle fled a bill to en-
Join the sale Of the land under the mort
gage for the purpose of paving the last
note, for its full face value, on the
grounds that the note included in its
face large amount of usurious interest !;
that, by oral argument, it was to bear
interest ut the rate of 124 per cent. per
annum after maturity; that Mrs. Rozelle,
at the time the first note was given,
which this second note replaced, could
not contract SO as to bind her separate
property.
The chancellor in his decree found
the following facts, to-wit: That the
note $11048. % Was given for the note of
$1,000, for $2243. 10 cash advanced, and
for $50 80 incurred in travelling expen
ses, - per agreemenf between the
parties, amounting In the aggregate to-
$500 so, together with interest On this
aggregate from March, 1882, to March,
1883, II IS per cent. per aianum; that

Hon. j. b. Morgan, Representative

the Committee on Agriculture, which
unanimously reported the bill to impose
a tax on imitation butter. In another
column we have printed extracts from
the speech of Judge Morgan in support
of the bill. They go directly to the
pith and marrow of the subject 1t will
be seen that he takes strong ground in
favor of continuing the tax on distilled
spirits and tobacco, and reducing it on
the necessaries of life. As we have
before said, the whisky manufacturers
and dealers themselves do not object to
this proposition, and the whole country,
except the Protectionists, says amen.

Death of Hon. John Kelly.

John Kelly, Chief of Tammany Hall,
died in New York City on the LIST inst,
of nervous prostration. For more than
a year his mental as we'll as physical
weakness has been of an extreme char
acter.
Mr.. Kelly was best known as the
leader Of Tammany Hall, the most COM
pact and best disciplined. though nu-
merically the largest, political organi-
zation in the United States. We doubt
if justice will ever be done to his good
qualities, as his position made him the
target for the powerful influence of the
opposition press which delighted to ira
duce and Islander him on all occasions,
and it was the custom of the illustrated
papers to present him to the public as a
course and uneducated ruffian
He was, in fact, an educated
gentleman of more than ordinary at.
tainments, and speaker of great
power. As political leader he was
aggressive and defiant, though not q
stranger to the arts of diplomacy. Per
sonally he was honest, and earned fol
himself by his faithfulness to all publ,
trusts, the sobriqaet of Honest Joar
Kelly"
AIR. Kelly was strong believer in tn,
doctriue that to the victor belong tn,
spoils, which many less honest than h,
nowadays affect to despise. He was
political manager, and did not shrinl
from being known As one, and he had n
liberation fer the men who we're Willing

and then turn their backs on him a.
