NATIONAL MILITIA SCHEME.
Gen. Curtis OF New York. Has Plan 10 Make
Every Man a Soldier.

WAsuINGroN, July 3l-The increasing
Importance of the militia for quelling inter
nal disturbances and its potential strength
in case of threatened war, have led Gen.
Curtis of New York, to embody his plans
for national militia organization in bill.
The bill has received the sanction of the
House committee on militia, and will likely
be called up at the next session.
General Curtis proposes that the militia
shall consist of every able-bodied male
citizen between the ages of Is and 49, the
organization to be known as the National
Guards of the states and the unorganized as
the reserve militia. The organization of
the former would be made to conform as
as closely as possibly to that of the regular
army.
For the maintenance of the militia organi-
cations, the plan contemplates an annual
appropriation of 100000.

A GLORIOUS VICTORY.
(Natchez Democrat }

All accounts, printed and oral,
that come to us OF the meeting of
the congressional giants at Missis-
sippi City last Saturday indicate
that it was one of the most notable
and grandest oratorical contests
that has ever taken place in the 9Th
district, If not IN the entire State of
Mississippi. An immense crowd
gathered at the place of speaking,
the people coming from all dlrec> :
tions by land aud water, and the &C.
caslon being characterized by the
greatest enthusiasm. II had been
arranged for Col. Stockdale to
speak first, but that gentleman's
superb (9 gall failed him, and the
fearless and peerless Martin voIun-
tee1ed to map out tho line of bat-
tie' and invited his opponents to
take up the castor that he SHE'D in-
to the ring.
Col. Stockdale followed Gen. Mar.
tin and then came Maj. GOvan and
Mr.. Denny in turn. Gen. Martin
WAS allowed time In the afternoon
tor rejolader, and Col. Stoke dale
was given another opportunity to
reply. All the speeches were eaid
TO have been able and mastery
but that of Gen. Martin was partic.
ulArly SO. The general is said by
gentlemen from this city who wer.
present at the great forensic con.
test to have completely and utterly
routed and unhorsed the doughty
colonel. The "Tall Pine of Pike
swsyed and quivered under the cy-
clone Of eloquence. and even the
most anxious to see him defeated
could not help feeling q little pity
Tor him. he had met bis master on
what be had thought his own van.
tage ground, and when the meet
ing had closed, where he had once
feit himself king, he found "fe W
40 lowly as to do him reverence. !"
Gen. Martins rejoinder to Col.
Stockdale's speech was receive d
with the widest and most vocifers
oue applause, and when "timen was
called the crowds shouted to him
70 60 on, and when he left the
stand they seized him, shook his
hands and hugged him. The colonel
then undertook to reply, but the
meeting refused to be further en-.
tertalned and dispersed. During
the balance of the afternoon Gen
Martin was constantly besieged by
large tbrongs of friends and ad-
mlrers, who would not let him get
neyond their enthusiastic gaze,
while the "Tall Pine of Pike, !,
windshaken and whipt of its great.
ness, wandered about almost soils
safy and alone.
