Messrs. w. X. and Walter McLau-
rim have just opened IA law Office in
Nicksburg, and will make that city
their future home. BY birth, cduca-
ton and training the McLaurins are
distinctly family of lawyers and the
name is iuseparably connected with
Mississppi's jurisprudence.
The senior member of the firm has
long stood at the head of the bar of
Sharkey county, and has enjoyed its
largest and most lucrative practice.
He invariably makes his clients ease
his own, and before jury is convinc
ing and irresistible. The junior was
a prominent candidate for District
Attorney in the Vicksburg district
last fall, tieing the present incumbent
in the convention. When the recent
Legislature assembled, III response to
flattering calls, he became candidate
for Il. r. Commissioner: and though
much the youngest of FIVE aspirants,
was overwhelmingly elected on the
second ballot. The new firm starts
out under the brightest auspices, and
is sure to receive, as it will merit, Il
magnificent patronage.-Ne,C HissiS-
SippidR.

Democracy and insultcd the Alliance
Committee. we thought he would
hear from it again. and this voice
from his own cOumtymcn. most of

lawyer" who said he was carrying
"A game chicken up the creek to his
wash woman when he witnessed the
fight between Hamilton and Gam
brell, is the hero of another "cock

night while he was staying at Hamil-
tons residence as the protector of
Hamilton's family during the latter's
absence, two white men attempted to
fire the building and were only pre-
vented by his discovering and firing
upon them through the window. A

The Clarion Ledger ''congratnIates'
Hamilton on his acquittal. 1t will be
remembered that it was the Clarion
which, though knowing Hamilton to
be defaulter, was lending its columns
TO boost him for the state Senate, and
thus drew forth the Sword and Shield
article which precipitated Rodcrick
Gambrell's assassination, and it was
the Ledger that sat on the fence after
the assassination as dumb as an oys-
ter fearing to express IN opinion.
Congratulations from such com
