RAILWAY MEETING AT JACKSON
MORE OF THE SPEECHES
Walker, Powers and McComb
The Jackson Pilot baa a farther report of
the railway meeting there Tuesday night,
which we copy:
Governor Alcorn in introducing Judge
Walker as editor of the New Orleana limes,
remarked:
The New Orleans Times, you know, is a
paper that has great "snap" in it, 1 have
myself felt that "snap" in times past, and
fully appreciate its pungency. [Loud ap
plause].
Judge Walker: Mr. President and gentle
men, I thank yon for the kind and cordial
reception you have accorded me, and I
thank his Excellency for the kind and mag
nanimous reference which he has made to
my journalistic course, and my relations to
the public pres*.
J exceedingly regret that the iatigue of
the trip and bodily sicknea* will prevent
me from worthily following the distin
guished gentlemen that have preceded me.
The circumstances of the occasion are such
as to bring vividly to my mind many things
that connect themselves with my recollec
tions of this hair, and which powerfully
suggest to me the great changes which have
transpired since I last appeared in it. The
occasion I refer to was when Mississippi
consummated that act which has been pro
ductive of such momentous consequences,
both to yourself and the country at large.
It can not but be that a large majority of
you sympathized in that proceeding. But
I am sure you all think cone the less favor
ably of myself tor making the full and frank
avowal that, though I was lully committed
to it, I now regard it as a most unhappy
movement, and one that, in its immediate
consequences, operated most disastrously,
alike to the interests of the people of the
State and of the country at large.
Well, then, I was an asserter of the right
of secession and Southern independence,
and now that that time has passed away,
and all the sad events attending it are rap
idly disappearing, I feel that a new era has
opened up to us insuring our section in
creased glory and unprecedented prosperity.
And therefore it is, that adopting the coun
sel of our Governor, I would urge upon you
the duty of purging your hearts of those
ill feelings and malignant passions,which, if
allowed to rankle there, will prove as fatal
to your personal happiness as they are peril
ous to the public peace. Cherishing these
sentiments, I can not bring myg-lf to believe
that I compromise my faithfulness to my
own section by welcoming to it citizens
from other sections, who are prepared to
devote themselves to those pursuits, and
to the furtherence of those enterprises
by which the interest of the people
and commonwealth are alike promoted.
It invokes, therefore, I maintain, no re
flection upon my character as a Southern
man for me to say that I cordially sympa
thize with all who come here to engage in
those pursuits on which the prosperity
of our people and of our State depends,
and especially would I accord a hearty
welcome to those Northern citizens who
have come to assist us in the great work
of restoring our former prosperity and
promoting the general rehabilitation of all
interests, public or private, social or politi
cal. Rising above that narrow feeling
which would restrict our sympathies to
men of a certain locality, or men of a cer
tain section, 1 have always regarded with
favor, and have been anxious to further
the projects of the gentleman who is here
to-night, as the representative of the rail
road intejests of this State, and this section
generally. When he came among us and
pr< ffered his capita), his energy, his enter
prise, to advance the general interest by
promoting the great works of the State, I
took perhaps more interest in him than I
would if he hsd been one of our own citi
zens. I think it is our interest and our pol
icy to attract Northern enterprise and capi
tal to the South, and therefore I extended to
him that kinddess and support to which ho
was unquestionably entitled. To adopt a
different course of procedure, I think
would be in conflict with that spirit of chiv
alry and generosity which is claimed as one
of the leading characteristics of the South
ern people.
With these feelings, and animated by
these sentiments, I have hailed with the
greatest satisfaction the results of the last
lew weeks, which have placed in charge of
these great works, in which we are ail sc
deeply interested, a gentleman who, by his
course among us, has given us assurance
that we shall find in him a DeWitt Clinton
of the South.
Lieutenant Governor Powers: Mr. Presi
dent and fellow-citizens: I am glad to be
permitted to join with you in tendering a
hearty welcome to those distinguished citi
zens of a neighboring State, that are our
guests here to-night. Our own beloved
State has much in common with that
State from which, for the most part, these
gentlemen come. Agriculture is the pur
suit of the people of both Statts; our cli
mate and soil are similar, the great Father
of Wather laves alike the ehores of Mis
sissippi and those of Lotiisiana. The great
railroad that serves as the grand trunk line
to connect Louisiana with the remotest parts
of the land traverses likewise our entire
State from the South to its extremes!
northern boundary. So that whatever con
duces to the prosperty of Louisiana benefits
us in a greater or less degree. It is ex
tremely grateful to me to witness the good
feeling and reciprocated friendship as be
tween these twin sisters of the South, which
the circumstances of to-night so strongly
and so strikingly elucidate.
But still more reassuring is it to reflect
that those sympathies which have their
origin in these material coincidences are
strengthened and intensified by our joint
participation in the same bitter cup of sor
row, and are now hallowed by the common
triumphs we have achieved in the name of
liberty, and the sacred cause of human
rights. [Loud applause.]
I trust that when these gentlemen return
to their beautiful city ot New Orleans—
which, by the way, is the city that fur
nishes a market, as its port does an outlet,
for the rich products of our State—they
will do so with pleasant reminiscences of the
interchange of sentiment and feeling we
have been permitted to indulge in to-night,
unalloyed by the recollection of a single
incident that could tend to mar or embitter
the retrospect.
As it was not my intention to make a
speech, but merely to unite in tendering a
hearty welcome to our distinguished visi
tors, I will not protract my remarks any
further than to thank you lor the kind at
tention with which you have listened to
them.
Senator Warner: There is one subject in
in which the people of Mississippi are very
much interested, to wit: The iuteu'ion and
purposes of the new directory of the New
Orleans and Jackson Railroad, with regard
to the Aberdeen extension. VY'e would like
to have the President of the road give us
his views on that subject.
Colonel McComb: I infer from.that remark
that you want to know whether it is my
purpose to complete that branch. Well, I
answer yes; and in saying that I want the
people along the line of that contemplated
road, and I waDt the Legislature here to
understand me, I expect the people who
live between Canton and Aberdeen to show
such encouragement to the road by sub
scribing to it as will insure the speedy com
pletion of the work. I hepe al.-*i to have
such aid and co-operation on the part of
the State of Mississippi, as shall show their
appreciation of the magnitude of the work,
anil of the importance of it3 early comple
tion.
I had forgotton to tell you that to make
those improvements in our road that are
necessary to raise it to the condition of a
first-class road, which at present it by no
means is. will require a great outlay of
money. Besides supplying sleeping cars,
many extensive repairs have to be made,
and a variety of other things done, which
will swell the outlay to quite a formidable
amount. In the meantime we hope to go
on with the work of extension toward
Kosciusco, which we expect to reach in
less than twelve months. I have said to
Governor Alcorn, and he may propose it in
due time to the Legislature, that if he will
secure me a moderate amount of State aid I
wilt have it completed to Kosciusco in less
than twelve months.
I have received this from a friend (read
inga slip of paper), in which I am asked
what kind of cars I propose to furnish the
colored man with—I answer the same kind
as I ride on myseli. Loud plaudits.
Chinese Laborer,.
Mr. Dennott, of the Planters' Banner, is
not an advocate of Chinese labor. To the
last number of his paper he writes from this
city:
One hundred and forty-one Chinese
laborers are daily expected at the Millaudou
plantation, to labor as held hands. They
aro part of the Pacific Railroad gang, and
are said to be the best that could be obtained
in California. So we will see what the best
pigtails will do. This gang from California,
aud the force ou the Lafourche, imported
stock from China, to be worked by Mr. John
Williams on bis plantation, will give tbe
people a chance to know what Chinese labor
is. The gang that proved so miserable a
failure on the Kittredge plantation were
from Cuba; and the frieuds of this kind of
labor contend they were refuse Coolies
which Cubans did not want. We tbiDk
those who are trying this Chinese labor are
engaging in it with many misgivings in
regard to its results. These yellow men all
have to learn to plow and manage mules.
That is no small job to start with. And
then it costs a mint of money to briDg them
here. But they will clean out all the rats,
puppies and kittens without any instruc
tions in regard to catching and cooking.
We will see what we will see.
Labor front Europe.
The editor of the Planters' Banner, in a
letter from this city, says: »,
In conversation with an intelligent Ger
man of this place, he informed me that
planters have made a great mistake in em
ploying Germans without families. He
s»ys it they will put up houses on fifty or
huudred acre lots, and lease them to Ger
man families on shares, they can get mul
titudes of such laborers: that with a pros
pect of making money to get homes of their
own. their women and children will do
much field work. He thinks peasant fami
lies from Bohemia, such as have been
raised to cultivate the soil, and know no
other occupation, would be preferable to
any other. He says if homes are provided
for them, and contracts made through a
man in whom they have confidence, there
would be no trouble in getting all the fami
lies wanted. They wish to know before
hand where and to what sort of place they
are to emigrate.
An Ohio paper gives this as a correct
report of a speech recently delivered by a
Democratic member of a school board in
that State. He is certainly progressive:
Mr. Cheerman, I rise for to—that is to
make a motion, which it is as follows:
Resolved that there are no need to build
such costive school housen as some of this
ere board is proposin to 'rect. No, Mr.
Cheerman, I'm 'posed to spendiu money for
more housen. The old ones are pretty good
yit, and for to go for to build a pretty slick
house which will cost teu thousand dollars,
or more yet, its all wasted. Its no 'conomy
to throw away money we don't need. Taxes
cost money, and money has to go to pay
taxes, and let us expense with any more
school-housen.
The correspondent of a New York paper,
who is traveling through the South, speaks
thus of the chief city of Georgia: "It is
much to say ot a Southern city that it is up
to the level of before the war, and Savan
nah is even above it, having somehow
charmed away much of the trade that used
to centre at Charleston, and showing none
of the desolation and decay which marks
that city. The negroes share in the general
prosperity, fewer of them being seen in the
streets lounging or engaged in petty trades
which can hardly proauce enough of profit
to keep soul and body together, and more
being steadily at work for hire. There are
no unoccupied buildings, and many new
structures have already been put up to ac
commodate a growth of population and
business. The wharves are lined with ves
sels, even though Charleston commands
most of the Northern invalid and pleasure
travel, which, at this season of the year, is
considerable. There is a general air of
hopefulness and activity among the people
in marked contrast with the sister city of
South Carolina; and this in spite of the
presence of the troops who have their
quarters in the heart of the city, and are an
ever visible proof that the national govern
ment has not yet loosed its grasp on
Georgia.
The London Spectator publishes the fol
lowing important news:
It is stated on authority that Tollymore,
the beautiful park in county Down. Ireland,
which belonged to the late Lord Roden, is
to be purchased or leased by the Priuce of
Wales. We trust that design will be car
ried oat, even if Parliament has to vote the
money. There should be a royal residence
in Ireland, and the Prince of Wales, with
his love of sport and enjoyment, and his
grand seigneur ways, is just the man to be
appreciated in Ireland. Let us dress the
Irish regiments in the national colors, so
that they may have abroad the honor of
their valor; trust the heir to their keeping;
treat Ireland, in short, as we treat the
Highlands, and bait the bitter envy and
suspicion which now feed Irieh discontent,
will disappear. "When," writes an Irish
tradesman, "we shoot landlords, we are
called Irish; but when we shoot the ene
mies of England, we are ' English sol
diers.'"
A New York clergyman entertained his
congregation by relating the following about
a young lady of his acquaintance: This
young lady was angry with her husband; so
anary that it made her sick. The doctor
was called in. Conceive the scene; the
lady raving with irrepressible fury; Dr.
Saugrado wielding his lancet aud affirming
by tne shade of Hippocrates that she must
be bled. She was, and thereupon, her
reverend biographer states, "her blood was
found to be full of froth and foam, so much
so that it oveiflowed the bowl that was held
to catch it, and also a milk pan." The
specific cause of the phenomenon is not
open to question. It was all the result of
her ungovernable rage.
Between three and four hundred sacks of

Really, our little earth is beginning to seem

How fortunate it would be for us if another

be possible that London mail matter for
Australia can reach its destination sooner
by way of San Francisco? And has it come
to be an open question with travelers to
that region whether they will go all the way
by water around the Cape of Good Hope, or
take a jaunt across America and the two
oceans ? I! so, we certainly have got about
to the end of our rope in the matter of won

THE COURT*.
I Eighth District Coart—Intjrasloa la OBea.
i A. Cazabat vs. Moses Fof et al.—In this
i case plaintiff avers that Moses Fox and
> Jacob Joachim are unlawfully holding and
; usurping the office of constable of a pretend
ed Eighth Justice's Court of the pariih of
Orleans, and executing the duties of the
same, that there is no snch office known to
or recognized by law, as constable afore
said, and said parties are without authority
to act as dug*; that all the acts and proceed
ings of said pretended constables are null
and void, and without force or effect.
Petitioner alleges that unless enjoined and
prohibited by this court, said parties will
proceed to sell his property, situated in New
Orleans, and valued at $5000. For the
reasons alleged plaintiff asks an injunction
against the parties defendant. Judge Dibble
granted the injunction, fixing the bond at
$ 200 .
The Civil Right* Cose.
Tbe case of C. A. Weed, asking a writ of
habeas corpus before Judge Durell, in the
United Btaies Circuit Court, did not come
up yesterday. It is expected the Judge
will deliver his opinion this morning.
The United States Circuit Court will ad
jpurn for the summer on Monday next.
United Htute* Circuit Caurt.-Jodse
Du rail.—A Slaughterhouse Dim.
In the matter of Paul Esteben et ale.,
praying for a writ of mandamus, Jndge Du
rell yesterday delivered the following de
cision :
In this case petitioners represent that they
are defendants in a certain suit now pend
ing in the Eighth District Court for the
parish of Orleans, which suit is entitled
"State of Louisiana, ex rel., S. Belden, At
torney General, vs. William Fagan et als.,"
that their rights could not be enforced, and
will be denied them in the Eignth District
Court—that their prayer for removal of said
suit to this court, as claimed under the con
stitution of the United States, and especi
ally under the act of April D, 1866, popularly
called the civil rights bill, has been refused
by said Eighth District Court; therefore,
petitioners ask for a rule nisi upon Honor
able Henry C. Dibble, Judge of the said
Eighth District Court, to show cause why a
peremptory mandamus should not issue,
commanding him to allow said petition of
removal, itud that after due proceedings,
eaid rule be made absolute and said writ of
mandamus issue.
The right of removing, under the "civil
rights bill," suits commenced in the State
courts is defined in section three of the act
of April 9, 1866, to be in the manner pre
scribed in the habeas corpus act of March 3,
1863, and ail acts amendatory thereof.
Referring to the last named act, I find that
it makes no provision for the proceedings to
be bad in the Circuit Cuurt in case of the
refusal of the State Court to grant the peti
tion for removal of a case alleged to be with
in the scope of the act.
But on May 11, 1866, the next month after
the passage of the civil rights bill, as if in
contemplation of such refusal, Congress
passed an act amending the habeas corpus
act, wherein, in sections four and five, it
especially provides for the mode of proce
dure in case the State court refuses to allow
the removal of a case, by docketing the
case in this court, with or without copies of
pleadings from the State court; and section
four provides that in a case entitled to be
removed to this court, the proceedings in
the State court subsequent to the prayer
for removal shall be null and void.
Tha writ of mandamus, says Justice
Clifford in Riggs vs. Johnson county, 6
VWIace, p. 166, "can only be issued by
these courts in cases where the jurisdiction
already arises, and not where it is to be ac
quired by means of the writ.''
"It wiil not be granted," said the Supreme
Court, in United States vs. Judge Lawrence,
3 Dallas, 42, "to compel a judge to decide
according to the dictates of any judgment
but hie own."
"A mandamus to a court implies some
censure on it a9 well as on the party," says
Judge Woodbury, in Ladd vs. Tador, in 3d
Woodbury and Slinot 32?, (in a case where
a writ of mandamus wae asked to be issued
from the Circuit Court of the First Circuit
to a State court of Maschueetts,) "and is,
therefore, not to be issued when there has
been, to appearance, an honest exercise of a
discretion confided to it by law."
It is not necessary in Ibis case to decide
whether, for reasons given in the above
cited cases, the writ of mandamus should
issue in this case; it is sufficient and conclu
sive to know that a plain, adequate and
complete remedy is provided for the peti
tioners in the amendment to the " Habeas
corpus act" of May 11, 1866, sections four
and hve.
And as I believe the sound rule of law to
be that laid down by the Supreme Court in
8 Peters, 591, Life and Fire Insurance Com
pany vs. Wilson: "The writ of mandamns is
subject to the legal and equitable discretion
of the court, and it ought not to be issued in
cases of doubtful right." I must decline to
allow the rule nisi prayed for, and to issue
tbe writ of mandamus in this case.
Let the petition be dismissed at cost of
petitioners. _
Eighth District to nr".
Deiter, Goldstein & Co. vs. Leveo Steam
Cotton Press et al. In this case plain
tiffs ask an injunction restraining de
fendants from prosecuting a number
of small suits before Justice Collins,
which originally constituted a single
claim for a large amount, and alleged to
have been divided up so as to bring tbe
claims within the jurisdiction of a Justice
of the Peace. The case turns upon the
point whetner the amount in controversy
is due on one single transactisn or on many.
The motion to dissolve the injunction was
overruled aud the case continued indefi
nitely.
A. Romantic Marriage.
The Figaro relates the.following ro mantic
story: "The Prince of Schleswig-Holstein,
ou his return from a scientific voyage,
which had lasted for several years, found
his library in a state of disorder. He asked
his steward to recommend some one who
could arrange it. and the latter replied that
the only person he was acquainted with was
a young lady who acted as companion to his
wife. This ycung person. Mile. Carmelita
Essemblart, is the duughter of a merchant
at Calcutta, who was formerly in wealty cir
cumstances, but on his meeting with a re
verse of fortune the children were obliged
to earn their own living, and the youDg lady
in question had even appeared on tbe stage.
She accepted the proposals made to her, and
on her entering upon her duties the priuoe
found her so well educated and so intelligent
that he was quite charmed, aud at last made
her an offer of marriage. The union is to
take place in a few days, and the bride
groom has applied to the King of Prussia
for permission to lay aside his princely rauk
and assume the title of Count de Boer, so
the marriage will not be a morganatic one.
Eating with Forks.— Mr. W. Peters, of
Otrego county, New York, wishes to know
"why it is not considered polite to eat with
a knife." He says he has mingled with all
classes in New York city and elsewhere, and
has noticed that the male persuasion who
eat with iorks only, generally carry a gold
headed cane, part their hair in the middle,*
and spend the money their fathers have
earned; the gentler sex who never put their
knives in their mouths usually sport a long
trail, read novels, fl rt with brainless fops
and think it degrading to know how to cook
a steak or make a loaf of bread.*' Notwith
standing all this, it is a fact t:iat, in propor
tion as our civilization advances, four tiued
silver or plated silver fork are found for sale
in hardware and house furnishing stores all
over the country. There are two reasons
tor this. A knife sharp enough to divide
I meat on the plate is an unsafe, not tossy
, dangerous, instrument to put in the mouth.
I It is also in the nature of a shovel; while
j the fork permits only slow aud select toed
I ing, which is a sure mark of refinement, in
man or b rute. _
The New Yoik Slandaril says, with truth:
Sooner or later the President mnst look
into the South for a party. He can only
have a sound party when he accepts and
welcomes every loyal and peaceful influence.
He most take every band that is offered to
him ic sincerity and frankness.

teenth articles of amendment to the consti

ified in good faith by a legal Legislature of
said State, it is hereby declared that the

After some other unimportant business
the House adjourned.
The Democratic members and Senators
have issued an address, in which they state
that nearly a third of the United States Sen
ate depends upon the legislatures elected
this year, ;and the character of the next
Congress depends upon the fall elections.
They have strong reasons to hope for a favor
able result, and they beg their Southern fel
low-citizens not to risk any loss by electing
persons who cannot'take the test oath,or who
come under the disabilities imposed by the
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, as
they will certainly be excluded.
A full Congressional committee ha3 been
appointed.
In the House to-day, Randall rising to a
question of privilege, sent to the Clerk's
desk, and had read, a correspondence be
tween himself and the proprietors of the
Globe, in which he complained of an omis
sion from the published debate on the Cuban
question. The retort which ho had made
to a remark directed at him by Butler, of
Massachusetts, "that fool3 often ask ques
tions which philosophers cannot answer."
Mr. Randall's retort was, "fools are some
times honest, and that is more than you
are."
The reply of the proprietors of the Globe
was that the paragraph was inserted in the
reporter's manuscript; that the manuscript
was submitted to Mr. Butler; that the as
sistant foreman had, with a singular lack of
appreciation, let it pass; that he had struck
out the paragraph, adding it would be in
serted in the fourth edition of the Globe.
The propiietors say that they never have
admitted and never can admit the right of
one member to revise to the extent of one
syllable the remarks ot another.
Butler's conduct in erasing Randall's re
marks wss referred to the Committee on
Rules.
The Democratic Senators and members in
Congress, in caucus, agreed upon the follow
ing address, which was to-day signed:
To Our Feliow-Citizens of the United States.
1-nends of Gonot'taiiGna!, Economical and
Honeat Government:
The undersigned beg leave fo call yourat
tentiqp to the peculiar importance of the
electiouk which take place this year, aud
re-pecifully to submit seme suggestions for
vour consideration. By the State Legisla
tures to be elected, nearly one-third of the
United Sta'es Senata will be chosen, and
nearly all the members of the next House
of Representatives are to be elected
next fall. Upon the coming elec
tions then depends the question of whether
the Democratic and Conservative element
for the Senate, shall be increased, and
whether that element shall have a majority
In the House of Representatives; and, as a
consequence, whether we shall have a con
stitutional, economical and honest govern
ment, or a continuance of revolutionary!
extravagant and wasteful partisan rale;
whether we shall have a general, uniform.
just and constitutional legislation, with
reasonable taxation and frugal expendi
tures, or unconstitutional, partial and
unjust class legislation, with oppressive and
unequal taxation and wasteful expenditures.
That we have strong reasons to hope for a
favorable result is plainly apparent. The
elections already held clearly show that the
tide of reform has set in with a power that
can not be resisted if no blunders be com
mitted by the friends of reform. If they do
their dnty and act wisely; if they throw off
all apathy and act with vigor and stead
fastness, there is every reason to hope
their efforts will be rewarded by eucce&s.
Let there be no dissensions about minor
matters; no time lost in the discussion of
dead issues; no manifestation of narrow or
prescriptive feeling; no sacrifice of the cause
to gratify personal ambition or resentment;
and let the best man be chosen for a candi
date, and we may hope to see onr country
redeemed from misrnle. And in this con
nection we beg leave to convey a
warning to onr fellow-citizens of the
Southern States. Do not risk
the loss of Senators or Representatives by
electing men who can not take the test oatli,
or who are under the disability imposed by
tbe fifteenth amendment. Whatever may
be said of the.validity of that amendment,
or of the test oath act, yon may rest assured
that Senators elected by the votes of mem
bers of legislatures who are held by the
Radicals, to be thus disqualified, will not be
permitted to take their seats, and that mem
bers of the House of Representatives thus
disqualified will also be excluded.
It is the plainest dictate of practical wis
dom not to incur any such risks, and we
hope soon to see the day when all disabili
ties will be removed; bat, in the meantime,
do not, we intreat yon, lose the opportunity
to strengthen the Democratic and Conserva
tive force in Congress and the possibility,
nay, probability, ol obtaining a majority in
the next House of Representatives, by
putting it in the power of onr adversaries to
overthrow or disregard yonr elections :
