The Next Legislature.
Hernando Times: Elsewhere in this
issue will be found the announcement
of Hon. .lobe Harral, as a candidate for
the position of State (Senator, subject to
the action of the Democratic party. This
gentleman has served one -ssion in the
Legislature with ability, and to the in

tared to inaugurate reforms that will
vastly benefit the country.
Tallahatchie Sentinel: Attention is

FitzOerald published in another column
of this paper in which he announces
himself as a candidnte for re-election to
the State Senate in what is now the 36th
district, composed of the counties of
Grenada, Tallahatchie and Quitman.
The announcement is made subject to
the action of the Itemocratic party of
the district.
Wextville News: Mr. T. H. Dickson
has been urged by quite a number of
prominent citizens of Simpson county to
become a candidate for Representative
in the next State Legislature, but de
clines. His friends think of placing his
name in nomination at the convention
which meets to nominate a candidate
for this Senatorral District. Mr. Dick
son is a young man of good promise, and
well qualified in every rwpect for the
position, and as Simpson county is, we
think, entitled to the Senator, we do not
think the honors could be placed upon a
more deserving young man.

sought a semi-judicial position which in
volved the duty of sec ret h investigating
khd pa -sing preliminary judgment Upon
the conduct of himself, hi- mends and
his opponents in an election out el which
he had collie under heavy personal
obligations to some, if not with
malice toward others. The position en
abled hint to protect himself and his
friends from indictnicn:. although they
might be guilty, ami to indict his
enemies although they might be innocent.
The result of the election was in doubt
and likely to be utlcctcd by the action of
the Grand Jury, when ho voluntarily be
came its confidential adviser. Criminal
charges were publiclv preferred against
himself and bis friends. us well asugainst
his Opponents. We might criticise a man
of ordinary virtue, who accepted under
such circumstances, a position which
should be absolutely removed from all
suspicion of unfairness, but in the
presence, of this great apostle of a
"fair ballot and a V" count," criticism
is absurd. If we were reviewing the
conduct of a live politician, who bad
acted in stic'i position, we might allude
in terms of strong condemnation, to the.
fact that though appointed to prosecute
in both the Northern and Southern Dis
tricts of the State, He confined the play
of hi-' mighty energies to that District
in which he bad friend - to protect, e'lemic
to punish, and a contest . influence.
We might be tempted to sav something
harsh about the luct that while the cor
respondence of Maniiingand his friends
were hauled before the Grand Jury, the
correspondence of Chaliners and bis
friends was not called for. We might
complain that in Tallahatchie county,
when Manning's supporter and Char
mer's united in resisting an assembly of
voters for fear of smaH-pox, ihe sup
porters of Manning wen- indicted and
those 01 1 nalniei
nCsses. We miirht sav something
about such a man, when be pressed so
bard for indictments against bis politi
cal opponents, as to disgust the respect
able members of the Grand Jury and
returned those indictments, though he
COUld only secure them through the
Unanimous VOto of his eleven colored
assistants, We might he indignant with
such a man when lie calls through the
Courts subpossas for the letters and tele
grams of his rival for a seal In (JOhgresMi
when that rival was not before the court
in any manner, shape or form. But we
will not condemn, nor complain of this
ot'r ripe political corpse, unburied only
because neither Republicans nor Demo
prats wiil permit the thing to be laid
away among their honored dead.
Even in the Gen's narrative specific
allegation- of facts to maintain thai Man
ning and his friends were ilection cor
ruption ists are conspicuously meagre.
Several teh grains and a letter are quoted
with substantial correctness, and there-
tore we are over captious it may he coli-
pdering the Gen's known weaknesses, to
complain, that with what in a less inno
cent and L'uilcless soul would be strong
evidence of an intention to deceive, he
omits mention of the concurrent facts
and the telegrams to which those quoted
were in reply, takes liberties with dates
and draws upon his fancy for a con-piracy,
which instead of beinLr proved is em
phatically disproved by the evidence
taken in the contested election case. He
first quotes the following telegram:
HOLIA' SiT.ixiis, Miss., Nov. i, lhK2.
To .1. B. Booth, Bardis, Miss.:
Manning defeated. Betums from
Union ann Tippah 600 leas.
E. M. Wath i.v.
Ami then proceeds :
".-1'- thi a conspiracy was formed to
chknre the result. Men were sent to
Tihpah and Union counties,
who we prove tried to nave the election
commissioners meet again and make s
new count, and the following telegrams
were sent to Hernando:
Holly Si'p.ixos. Nov. 9. 1K2.
To A. S. Buchanan, Hernando, Miss :
No official count reported from nnv

"And on the same day, although Man
aiug's majority in DeSoto had been
counted at 133," the following telegrams
was i-ent:
Hoi.iy Bntnros, Nov. 9f tugs.
To A. S. Buchanan, Hernando, Miss.:
If Mannings majority in IieRoto
prospects good. E. M. Watson.
The proof taken shows that on Novem
ber Hth, the day before any of these tel
egrams were sent and when information
showed election very close, these gentle
men started from Holly Springs, one to
Ashland and two to Ripley for the pnr-

ant;

A little while afterwards information
