A WRONG DONE LAMAR.

The strongest and most virulent OPP
poncnt OF the confirmation Of Mr.. Lamar,
whom the President has nominated for the
vacancy on the Supreme Bench has been
The Nd0 York Tribune. II has taken adj
vantage Of the opportunity TO wave the
bloody shirt for all II was worth. In order
to fire the northern Republican heart,
particularly the hearts Of those Re-
publican senators who have shown
a disposition to accept Mr.. lamar, II has
set forth the facts OF his prominence in
tho Southern Coniedcracy in such lurid
colors rs II could command, and, by dis
torting sentences Of old speeches, by mali
cious Interpretation OF motives and by un-
generous perversion OF history II has sought
to make party capital which would produce
dividends next November. One may inn
agine, therefore, the wild ayidity with
which il received the story, current in the
north, Of the recent election in jackson,
Miss. At that election, Il will be remem-
bercd, the Democrats succeeded in carry
ing the city for the first time in many
ycas, The Tribune quotes the following
circular rs having been issued:
We hereby warn the negroes that II any one Of
their nice attempts TO run for Office nj the ap
preaching municipal election hc does 30 at his
supcmcst peril: and We further warn any and all
negroes Of this city against attempting by vote or
influence 10 foist ON ~ again this black and
dnmnnbc machine, miscalled government Of our
city
The Tribune takes this circular whichwe
assume TO he bogus, and, putting It's own
construction on II and on statements made
In supplementary dispatches, maintains
that the negroes Of Mississippi are in q
state Of tcrrorization. II then proceeds to
hold that the existence Of such state OF
affairs is sanctioned in the mere fact Of ex-
istoncc, by Mr.. Lamar From these
premises constructed at its order, will and
pleasure. Tic Tribune makes the deduction
that Mr.. lamar is unfit for the
high position the President has chosen
him TO fill. Tho Democrats OF Jackson
must make haste TO relieve Mr.. Lamar
from the embarrassing position in which
The Tribune and its newspaper abcttos
have placed him, and declare the truth Ms

Fonnighhy Rerielc, which Is devoted to a
demonstration that the recognition Of the
right to property involves and rests on the
admission OF the right to live. The exact
words of the passage are; II answer that
the obligation TO feed the hungry springs
from the natural right Of every man to
life and to the food necessary for the sus-
tenance Of life. So strict Is this natural
right that II prevails over all positive laws
of property. Necessity has no law, and a
starving man has natural right to his
neighbours bread" The Cardinal then
goes into disquisition on the historic
poor laws OF England, and shows that in
the reign Of Queen Elizabeth this natural
right was over and over again recognized
and enforced by statute. The English
press very generally condemns the posi-
ton Of the Cardinal as mischievous, but
they do not say he is wrong.

ROME, Jan. 6.-The Pope has announced
that he will receive the presidents OF the
English and American colleges in Rome
and British pilgrims ON the 10th instant.
Mgr. Clifford will make the necessary ar
engagements for the reception. The Pope's
jubilee presents were placed on ex-
hibltion at the vatican today for
tile first time. Foreign diplomats,
q number OF Roman aristocrats and host
OF other guests were present. The Pope
entered the hall where the presents had
been arrayed at noon, followed by forty
eight cardinals and the whole pontificial
court. The Pope took his seat on the
throne and Cardinal Scheaflind proceeded
TO read the address. To this the Pope
replied and he seemed deeply moved
by the manifestation of love and venera-
ton reaching him from all parts of the
world. lie regarded them as evidence OF
the power Of papacy, which the enemies
OF the church yainly attempted to deny.
The share taken by the sovereigns Of
the world in the jubilee proved
that they justly appreciate the
Importance of papacy. He concluded by
praisng the organizers OF the exhibition.

We have been a good deal excited over

ii. Sutton was hanged at Oakland today
for the murder Of Alexander Martin, a
ranchman, in September, 1886. Strenu-
Gus efforts were made in Sutton's behalf
for communication Of sentence, but Gov.
Waterman refused TO interfere. Since
Gov. Waterman acquired his Office by
the death OF Gov. Bartlett, four months
ago, six executions have taken place in
this state, and although efforts in behalf
Of the condemned men have been made in
every case, Gov. Waterman has refused
pardons or combinations. When Sutton
was placed on the scafiold he made q
