NOEL WILL TEST
 PARDONING LAW

Jackson, Miss, September 11.-(Spe- cial )-Governor Noel Is going to test the constitutionality of the law that gives to boards of supervisors that right to pardon county convicts, that question having come up in the case of pr. Kirby, a physician of Lawrence county, who was fined $500 and 90 days in jail, who was later pardoned by the supervisors. The attorney general ad- vises the governor that supervisors have the right to pardon such con victs, but doubts the constitutionality of the law The governor will advise the judge and the district attorney to have Dr. Kirby rearrested and will make a test case of the matter.
 Chancellor Lyell has granted Frank Mellon bail in the sum of s5000G which was made up in few minutes, and the prisoner returned to his home in Bolton. Mellon was indicted for the murder of c. c.

sustained it; and I suspect that there was never year when Dr. Harris did not have to make up some deficit out of his own pocket. But it was the or gan and central expression of the most enthusiastic and most fruitful philo- sophie effort seen in America in the last half.centufy. Dr. Harris became the centre of noteworthy group ot thinkers at St. Louis ,men like the late Thomas Davidson, like Denton J. Sni- der, still doing his dynamic and re- markable work there. He made St. Louis for a time, for many circles far beyor d America, the central spot in the atlas of our philosophy. IL was so in important German circles when 1 was in Leipzig; it was so thWilliam and Edwin allace al Oxford; l know 1t was at the same time so with the Cairds and Hutchinson Sterling in Scotland; and among my pleasantest recolleciions of my student days in England are those of evenings with dear old Professori Upton, Martineau's colleague in philosophy at the London college, whose early word was always sure to be about Harris and his Hegeli- anism, with which he had his own sharp quarrels, but for which he had such high and reverent regard.
 Dr. Harris's philosophic influence in America began just when it was most urgently needed. It was just as the doctrine Of evolution, pregnant itself with such infinite enlightenment and good. came in theoretically bound up for the time with English and German philosophy, which saw little beyond secondary cause, and destined In that combination to do mischief for gene. ration. IL was imperative that at such time the youthful speculative minds of the country should be thrown back into companionship with the real "lords of thought" and taught that the great influx of new science could all be suhsumed, under commanding ideal istie philosophy. This service pr.Haf- ris rendered An ner'ca. lie made a new generation open again, when there was danger of ,ts forgetting il, the pages of Hegel and Kant, of Aristotle and Pla- to, and to supplement it's reading by real thinking. He did il through his journal, through multiplied courses of lectures, through the Concord School of Philosophy, where he was from first to last the central ,sdynamic and really shaping influence, and through his many books and pamphlets which have. kept coming from that time to this. For he was a prodigious worker and he worked till the last. His work and influence will go on. There is no revival needed in America today more than revival of philosophy. When ever and wherever men work for that they will remember gratefully and rev erently the name civilian T. Harris.

About Mrs. Hudson and Mrs. Fulton.

About Mrs. Hudson and Mrs. Fulton.
 If Henry Hudson and Robert Full ton gallantly referred to their wives as their better halves" time has been less polite in almost eonsigning their memory to oblivion.
 Of Mrs Hudson we have scarcely any record. There is no record of who she was or where she died. She was simply the wife of Henry Hudson, the woman who watched him sail away on his hazardous voyages toward an unknown world and who in his ab- sence struggled with poverty and prayed for his return.
 In an old contract of Hudsons with the East India company we find that the company bound itself to pay Hud- son $320 if he was successful in find ing the passage which he was sailing for; ..also other rewards commensurate for his service to be agreed upon be- tween the company and the said Hen " Hudson" But, mindful of the wife and children he was leaving behind him. Hudson had the proviso inserted that if he failed to return from bis voyage the company was to pay bis widow for her support and the main- tenance of his children the munifieent sum of $50.
 Whether Mrs. Hudson collected this money after the i'll fated expedition, in which she lost both her husband and her eldest son. we do not know. but we find in the court minutes of the East India company for April IA. l6l4, the following: Being informed that Mrs. Hudson. the wife or widow or MT. Hudson, who was lost in the northwest discovery, desired their fa- vor for employing a son of his, sne being left very poor, and eoncelvmg that they were partly obliged in char ity to give assistance in regard that his father per.shed in the common wealth. resolved to recommend him 10 the care of some one who is going ~ make a voyage to the East Indies.
 In an entry a few days later we mo that the company was even better tnan its word. for we read, Mrs. Hudson son being recommended to the care Hunt. masters mate in the Samaritsh 5 f be laid out for him in apparel ano necessaries.'
