A CHEEKY PROPOSITION.

The proposition published in the
State Ledger of company of capital
lists who are willing to take the con-
tract for removing the penitentiary
and purchasing and fitting up a farm
in consideration of the States paying
them $4,000 and leasing them all the
convicts for period of five years,
smells decidedly "fishy." Besides in
volving a return to the brutalities and
abuses of the old leasing system, it
amounts to bold proposition to the
Legislature to set at naught the Con-
stitution itself, which requires that the
leasing system shall cease altogether
in less than three years from this date

The LEADER is surprised that such
level-headed and considerate legisla-
tors as Messrs. Madison, of Noxubee,
and Guynes, of Copiah, usually are,
should have been caught among the II
members voting for the wild PROPOSE
ton for the State to purchase the
Gulf & Ship Island Railroad and COM
plete it with convict labor. Better
buy two or three convict farms than
enter upon such an extravagant scheme
as that.

AMENDE HONORABLE,

In it's issue OF the 2Sth ult. the LEAD
Err referred to certain language and &C
ton taken by Senator Harrison, of
Lowndes, while the chapter on dram
shops was before the Senate, and drew
the inference therefrom that the Sen
ator was ''coquetting' with both Pro
hibitionists and liquor men, with an
Interior object in view-was '.for the
dam and dgin the DAM"
We have since become convinced to
our satisfaction that we wholly miscon-
strued the Senator's real purpose and
intentions in the premises and did him
an unwarranted injustice, which is
here cheerfully acknowledged. In 9TH
er words, it affords us pleasure to say
he is unequivocally ''for the dam" PRO
hibition) and against the saloon.
If the suggestion may be pardoned
we will add, that if Senator billiard has
no better ground for insinuating that
the popular young Senator from
Lowndes has been ''coquetting" with
the ladies, it will now be in order for
him to make like acknowledgment.

The saloon-keepers and their allies
have squealed good deal over the
'dram-shops" chapter as it stands.
There are two amendments it needs
which, if adopted, would start a fresh
and louder squeal, and actually make
them forget their present ''woes." One
of these is the ''jug amendment" and
the other is provision to require night
closing
