4. With regard tothe mortgages subse
quently acquired, we think Uie burden of
proving that they were purchased wjlh his
owa means, and net with the proceeds of the
property, was upon Jease. If he had shown
this it would present for decision a question
poo which the authorities differ, it being
shown that it was a part of the original
scheme that be should pay or buy up the
outstanding iocambrances." We do not de
ride this point because we ar of the be
lief that not a dollar of defendant's money
except the cash payment on the Richardn
k May deed of trust, and sundry sums
Esid in making the crop, which are shown to
ave been returned out of the crops, ever was
expended by him on the property, or in the
purchase of the subsequent incumbrances.
We know of no principle of law which would
justify reimbursement of such sums or sanc
tion the enforcement of mortgages so ac
quired. 5. The severe consequences of a failure to
answer interrogatories under $ 1943 Code
1880, should not be visited on complainants,

Editors Clarion : Observing an arti-
I. . -
I in your paper not long since, in re
on to employing ladies in your estab-
kment, I have been induced to ask the
lor of writing a few sentiments in re-
1 to the above. While visiting many
his and cities last year, I was pleased
note the many places now filled with
licit, that were formerly considered only
rible for gentlemen. The various de-
tmentsin the mercantile line, as well
I clerkships in the business of State,
ire been ably filled by them. Their
ention to business and all important

ly and honesty of purpose that they

Iployed.

pVhy is it then, that other towns and
es in Mississippi have inaugurated

A LADY r RIESD.
ackson, Miss., Jan. 10, 1883.
Appeal from the Chancery Court of Holmes
e .nnly, Hon. V . K. Williamson, Chan
cellor. On May 30th, 1878. J. X. McLean. Sr.. and
and his two sons tr. A. and J. N. Jr., said
two sons being merchants and partners un
der the firm name of O. A. McLean & Co.,
were the owners of three plantations on
Talluhatchie river known respectively 81
Wildwood, Goldust and Glenburr. These
lands with the personal property thereon
were wortn about HU.OOO UU, but were in .rt-
gaged to the extent of of or their value.
Un above named day a sale of ihe entireprop
erty was made under a junior Incumbrance,
the same being a trust dead with power of
sale, owned and held by Itichardsoti fc May.
tor SUUaO.oo. At this sale the property was
bought by Jesse W. McLean, a third son of
J. X. McLean, Sr., lor the amount due on ihe
trust deed, he paying $2,f)O0ensh, and giving
his notes for the balance payable the ensu
ing winter. The notes were met as they fell
due by shipments of the cotton, growing on
the lands at the time of i he sale. The trust
deed was extinuguislied ami marled satis
fied on the county records. Within the
next three years Jesse bought in and had
transferred to himself the other mortgages
resting on the property. At the time of the
sale the mortgagors were indebted many
thousands of dollars, to various parties,
whose debts were wholly unsecured. These
have filed this bill, attacking the convey
ance nnder which Jesse holds the property,
as being in framl of their rights and as void
as to them. They charge that the sale at
which Jesse bought was brought about and
took place at an unusual time of the year,
that it was quietly and furtively conducted,
in order that Jesse alone mignt become a
bidder, that in its inception and all its
subsequent hiftory, it was n fraudulent
scheme, devised and carried through for the
benefit of the McLean family, its primary
objects being to invest the title to the prop
erty in Jesse, who alone of the family was
unembarrassed, in order that be might hold
it, first, for bis own reimbursement, and
then for the benefit of the family generally.
And that the enrdiuaf end sought to be at
tained was to hinder and delay the unse
cured creditors. , The answer denies the
material allegations of the bill and asserts the
bona, till of the whole transaction. A huge
mass of evidence was taken, in the utmost
degree conflicting on some points. But
there is a preponderance in favor of the
complainants, showing t hat the conveyance
to Jesse was a scheme contrived and
brought about by J. N. McLean. Jr.,
for the purpose of keeping the property in
the family by defrauding the unsecured
creditors of his father and G. A. McLean &
Co., and that Jesse.witb full knowledge, lent
himself with all his money, t most $4.00 ) or

Nashville, Jan. lS.--Gen. Wm. E
Bate was inaugurated Governor to-day
at noon with imposing ceremonies. In
uis inaugural address he referred ai-
provingly to the emphatic expression of
popular vi at' the ballot-box to pay
that which the State acknowledges she
justly owes, known as the "State debt
proper," but not that part of the debt
known as "contingent," the liability for
which waa questioned by a larger portion
of intelligent voters and tax-payers,
who claimed equities as just and honor
able offsets.

Committee bill repeals sections 146 to

for a popular eleetiou in case of vacancies
in the offices of President and Vice

by Senators and Representatives, the
stronger becomes the opinion that the

The objection to this bill is that it

more by the desire to aid his family and

2. He has filed no cross-bill in this case,
and perhaps on that ground aloae we might
decline to consider his claim to reimburse

reimbursement has been decreed without a

Special to the Times-Democrat.
Biloxi, Jan. 14. All the bar-rooms in

The Illinois Central.
St. Louis Railway Reporter.
The Illinois Central, since it acquired
the Chicago, St. Louis & New Orleans R.
R., has decided to construct numerous
branches and feeders in Mississippi.
These short lines will be built mostly on
the west side of the line and are designed
to connect it with the Mississippi and
give access to the rich cotton lands along
that river. The road now lies on the
great central ridge about a hundred
miles distant from the river mid, though
tin- soil along the line Is for the most
part good, it is not as rich as that of the
river bottom where the best cotton Is
grown. Ry building these feeders the
company gains nil the advantages yf
passing inrougn i ue productive low lands,
without losing; those of having its main
track on high pound, where it can all
the better he kept in repair and over
which through business can be done with
greater' case and quicker time.
The Illinois Central is determined to
develop Mississippi by giving it the ad
ditional railway facilities which its river
districts ho much need, and from them
the company itself must derive a great
profit, besides adding to the value of the
main line. The people of Mississippi
ought to appreciate the Central for it is
doing the State excellent service.

1 he mills consume attnttallv about a
million six hundred and eighty thousand
pounds of cotton. Every pound of this
cotton is bought and the cash paid for it,
at the door ot the mills. The consump
tion of wool is about 750,000 pounds.
A large proportion of this is bought here,
but some of it, particularly tine grades,
is purchased in Texas, and other wool
growing States. The mills manufacture
in woolen goods: Cassi lucres, dowdtins,

A Negro Murderer Lynched in Virgi
nia. Abisgdox, Va., Jan. 1. Hlnford
Smith, colored, Was taken from the jail
at Tadwell Court House on Sunday
morning by a mob and riddled with bul
lets. On Saturday, Dec. '2.r, Smith and
a young white man named Charles Kin
ser had a dispute about a woman. The
negro drew a knife and stablied Kinncr
several times. Although frightfully
wounded, Kinser made a desperate effort
to defend himself. Ho drew a pistol and
followed his assnilant some distance, but
fell to the ground lrom loss ol blood and
died soon afterward. Smith attempted
to escape, but was arrested by Mr. Jen
kins, the editor of the Jcil'ersonville
Times. The murder caused intense ex
citement, and threats of lynching the
negro were made, i esteniay morning,
at about 14 o'clock, a mob visited the
jail, and while some of their number
attracted the attention of the jailer, the
rest of the mob secured the negro, and
madeoff with him. The jailer's wife fol
lowed the lynchers a shot distance, firing
a pistol in her efforts to stop them. See
ing that they were about to be f rust ra
ted, the lynchers emptied the contents
of their revolvers into the body of the
murderer.
