Jackson, Miss., Jan. 18, 1883.
Ms. N. 11. Smith. Learned, Miss. Dear
Sir: Believing the Democratic party to be
in a measure, re-'nonsib'c for the recent
losses in Hinds county ; and feeling that it
is neither just nor proper for a fow good
men to be bear the entire loss, and knowing
that it has beeirfftfite a stru".'lc for some ef
the bondsmen to pay their pro rata, I here
With inclose one hundred dollars to go to
wards Indemnifying the entire bondsmen
ami that every good Democrat in the county
will soon take the sam? view of the matter
and come forward and pay at least a portion
back to the bondsmen, thereby helping to
bear each other's burdens. I would have
done this sooner, but for a lack of means.
Yours truly,
Wm. J. Brown Jr.
lays for distribution to all tax payers
who may feel interested in examining
and nrcservingsueh a publication, which
the amendment to charter requires to oc
published annually.
Our thanks are tendered to our
irood friend. Mr. M. A. Stewart, of Learn
ed Station, Hinds conntv, for a club of
eight subscribers at that post olliee.s It
all the friends ot 1 HB v'i.aRION would
take a like interest in extending its eir
eolation, we would soon after have fifty
thousand names on our list. Our club
rates are very attractive.
The Literary Club held its third
meetiiiL' last Thursday night at the resi
deuce of Dr. M. S. Craft. It was one of
the most eniovable meetings yet held
Several new members were present. The
L. 0. promises to be not only a popular
but a permanent institution of Jackson
The next meeting will ho at the resi
deuce of Judge Chalmers, to-morrow
night.
In making mention lat week of the
standing of our young townsman, Nolan
Stewart, In the Normal i oiiege, at nasn-
ville, we should have stated that he was
SIM of the younffiit in bis class of forty
sevcii, and that be is one. of the tins, and
not the i.rth who stand highest in the
class. The final examination may prove
him to stand as number one -at least vi'
shall hope so.
Mr. Wm, J. Brown, Sr., is having a
Bre-pr00f oil warehouse erected on his
vacant lot in rearof the Baptist Church,
The unfavorable weather id' late has del
laved the work. In view of the recent
fites on the square where the oil is now
kept, lie luts the best wishes of interest
ed property owners for such weather as
will enable him to complete the good
work he has begun.
At the earnest solicitation of the
"Mite Society," an Association formed
for the muoose ot assisting in raising
means to complete the erection of the
new Methodist ehuren DUlldtng, itcv.
Dr. C. P. Galloway has consented to
deliver his lecture" on the subject of
illustrious Dunces." The price of ad
mission is only 2.ri cents, and the money
so raised will be devoted as above stated.
Tickets for sale at the drug stores, and
at the stores of W. J. Brown, W. A.
Whiting, and Stevens & Saunders. The
lecture will be delivered at the Christian
Chapel, next Friday evening, beginning
at 7 o'clock.

cess. Too much space would be required
to describe tho various disguises, in
most instances thev were perfect ; much
amusement was created; love made to
the wrong girl, and in some eases it was
not a girl who received and listened to
the sweet sayings of the mistaken swain.
The pleasure of the scene Was not
marred by the removal of masks and
dominoes, for then appeared the ladies
in their beauty enhanced, if possible, by
the beautiful costumes they wore. The
gentlemen sustained their reputation for
gallantry, and have reason tube satisfied
with the success ol the hall.
A genuine alarm of fire was sounded
at the unseasonable hour ot z o ciock
Sunday morning. The frame building
between Capital Suite Bank and Lemly
t Son, was discovered on tinviud before
the fireman could reach the place, was
entirely destroyed; but thanks to them,
no other serious damage wna none.
Several doors and windows on the south
side of the bank were burned. Messrs.
Bcatv, Van Hook and MeRne. on second
floor, were obliged to vacate their ofiiees,
and their books nnd papers were dam
aged from water. The building destroyed
was owned bv Mrs. Zshnder, nnd wiw
occupied as a fruit nnd cigar store by
her son Albert, i no nouso was msureu
for $800.00, but no insurance on stock.
The lot is admirably located for a nice
brick building, which we hope will at
once Iks erected thereon. The origin of
the lire is not known. The Hope Com
pany was the first to throw water,, but
all the nrenicn woraeu wiui vow uju
good will and efficiency.

An Innocent Error Corrected.
PoaT Gmsos, Miss., Jan. '20, 1883
Editoks Clarion : Our friend, Capt
Bustamante, falls into an innocent error, in
his letter in The Clabion of the 17th in.st
wherein be says :
"Mr. Mason informesl me that he and
Alex Virden and others, oi Jackson, ust j
to be boys together in the good old State of
Maryland.
In conversation with the worthy Captain
I inquired, as I always do, after the health
of ray old friend, Alex. Virden, and said to
him that Mr. Virden and I were born
in the same county, in the State of
Delaware (not Maryland), and that I was of
the impression that all the older members
of the Virden family, in this State, were na
tives of the same county and State. We
were not all boys together, as the Captain
inferred, but strangers until wc met, long
years ago, in this State.
it has been several vears since I was a
boy, and Alex. Virden's always solid, useful
life, and his now advanced years, preclude
the possibility, I may almost say, that he ever
teat a buy. Very truly,
J as. S. Mason.

Beginning of the New Tear Fav-
oraoiy.
Our fellow citizen, Capt. G. P. Busta-
mente, the great machinery man of this State,
besides selling several small bills since the
first of January inaugurated his engine trade
for this year by selling a 75-Horse Power
MurrayJStationery Engine, for saw-inill pur
poses, to Messrs. Wesson Sc Persons, of
Bogae ChittO, last Saturday. This makes
thirly-five of the celebrated Murray Engines
that he has sold between Jackson nnd
Osyka, on the C St. L. & N. O., besides
nearly one hundred more in other portions of
the State all in n little over three years.
The Murray Engine certainly has the lead
in Mississippi, and deservedly too, from all
accounts. l.L
Fegce Oil is the mortal foe to Rhritmntism
and Neuralgia; it will also immediately re
lieve the pain arising from burns, soalds, etc.
Get one Woffle from Hunter and Harrington
and you will be convinced that what we say
is true.
The New Fluter.
Woodard & Holder control ths patent for
the sale of the Fluter, nnd county rights for
the Southern States. It is a self-ironer, as
well as a fluter; will do the work that no
other timer can do, aud cost less money;
will flute a ruffle K of an inch to five yards
d eep if necessary, and the puffing without
folding. Messrs. Woodard A Holder can be
found for a few days at Mrs. Johnsons board
ing house, Pearl street, Jackson, Miss.

Making Short Work of It.
In thesieceof Trov. Annolln mem,,.,,.,!
the Trojans to be valiant against the Greeks
by saying: -The mighty Achilles does not
fight to-day." It would seem as if death
had been bidding disoase to m ike lis great
inroads upon men, by saving: "Hunt's
Remedy is out of the market " But the
Trojans found to their cost, that the mighty
Achilles came t the field, slew their great
est chaniDions, and made short work of the
battle. And Hum's Remedv.
against kidney and liver diseases, has taken
the field, and is making short work of all
such ailments. Hundreds nf teaiimnni !
from all quarters are coming in as to the
the might of this champion medicine. Not
surer was the sword of Achilles than is this
powerful, yet peaceful, remedy in battle
form, as it wages war against dropsy, uriu
nry and kidney complaints, and overcomes.
It is wise to call in its aid
