The question of appointing the
new United States Circuit Judges is
i cninr to attract a good deal of at
tention, now that the time is near.it
hand vt Iif-r. the JYesident will have to
!.!. e the appointments. The New
York Tribvne says HoraiH M.iY
nard, of this State, has been promi
nently mentioned in connection with
t'u.' Judgeship for the sixth circuit,
('imposed of the States of Michigan,
Ihio, Kentucky and Tennessee. The
I'iunati Enquirer mentions that
three candidates from Ohio are prom
inently spoken of, viz: Judge Bei.
!..imi Storer, Philip Swing, of
I -.iiont county, and Judjre Cox, of
the Common Pleas Court of Hamilton
i-..umy. The telegraph has also re
portei Ben Wade an expectant.

tiv. U'ing tjed by law at Ma, on the
supposition that tiie population of the
Cniti-J sratos should reach 40,000,000
hy the arasus of 170, the ratio of rep
resentation will lie about one repre
sentative t i;i,iii inhabitants. By
the eii.-u- el lsi there was a repre
sentative to lLT.tmu inhabitants. If
then- -hould lie no increase in the
numlx-r of representatives, the old
StaH" mu.-t lose by the change of ap
Mjrtiinment, and that continually as
the ratio in.'rease. On the other
hand, if the ratio should remain the

time i near when the House of Rep

legislation.
We understand that the committee
appointed to solicit subscriptions of

SKNA-oniA, Miss., Nov. 36. lSfiS).
Eil. Appeal: Not being a " watch
man on the tower" of the present po
litical situation, I am unable to say,
" what ol the night." The recent
registration had last week has had
the tendency to make Conservatives
far more hopeful in fact, confident.
The effort of the Radicals, by leaving
out several of the most prominent pre
cinct all along the railroads, to give
a heavy preponderance to the negro
vote, has not had the happy result al
together the plotters so fondly antici
pated. The nearest registering poll to Sen
atobia was Whitsell's, an out-of-the-way
place, fully ten miles distant.
Coldwater, Como, Sardis and other
places not county sites were treated
in the same way. This dodge was
evidently intended to prevent a many
whites from registering as possible, as
it is not a convenient thing to spend a
whole day from business, much less to
incur the expense and trouble of going
so far for the mere purpose of procur-
. i L
mg a certincate. it was supposeu tne
negroes, being thoroughly organized
through tlH'ir " Vm r role nt Society,
could be made to go. They, however,
did not all go, and hence the negro
vote fell far short of the increase the
managers of this nice little block
game expected. They have now in
DeSoto county only 44 major
ity on the registration lists,
and as fully five hundred hava floated
away from here since the first regis
tration the Conservatives feel confi
dent of their complete ability to carry
this county by a handsome majority.
As "straws show which way the wind
blows," so do the elongated visages of
the Radical candidates portend com
ing disaster. "Gen." Gill Carring
ton's round chubby red face has added
about two inches to its vertical diiuen-
1 sions, and "Loi. canard s always
: loug enough has assumed a whiter
hue, giving it the appearance of an in
verted chalk pyramid. Cncle Jeptha
has sent to iraves for his sermon re
futing the Aridistic doctrines which
the aforesaid candidate for Legislative
honors so warmly espoused when
that little infidel !xok, "so-called,"
made its first apearance before
an astonished and wundcring world.
Jeptha hopes to be reconstructed on
that subject in time to get the negro
vote, as that class of voters have un
fortunately found out that he once,
twice, yea, many timeu, was heard to
-ay that a negro had about as much
chance of heaven as a mule. The
mule not being a popular object of
comparison with that respectable part
ot Ins constituency, the old gentleman
is trying hard to go back oil his fa
vorite authors; but somehow or other
hi competitors still stick to their
heartless repetitions of his former
"soulless" assertions. Campbell, an
other Radical candidate, in imitation
of his illustrious predecessor. Wise-
man, w pitcking Mi !ittl (i lunula ted

return to the "busum'' of his family

The voting precincts are worse ar
ranged, if anything, than the register
ing precincts were. Here is the order:
On the 1st day (Tuesday) iSenatobia
votes at Arcabutla, fifteen miles off; 1
Cold Water at independence, ten i
miles off; lieynolds at Cockrum; ,
Pleasant Hill at Olive Branch; Iike- !
vilieat Horn Lake; DeJSoto Front at
Hon Lake; Cub Lake at Hernando.
This arrangement, of course, is sim
ply a framl, M business men will have

Vmt important tow ns aloug the road,
if anything like a full vote be polled,

eral " ueserteu niages " in this sec
tion of King Adelbert's dominions.
"Let us have peace!"
A very reliable and intelligent citi
zen of this place, just returned from
.Sunflower couuty, reports that a very
MfiMM affair occurred in that county
last Monday. The negroes there, in
fluenced by the diabolical teachings of
the fiendish ( 'omliash, a shrewd and
unprincipled negro, aided and abetted
by his no l-w st-oundrelly white al-i
Ikn, formed the bold design of driv
nit; all the whites from the country.
They formed organizations, number
ing sonie six hundred, all armed and
equipped with Uiuskets aud cartridge
boxes, and st;irteJ forth "on their mis
sion of pillage, plunder and murder.
The whites hearing of their intended
raid, assembled as soon as possible
near the-Talia hatch ie river, between
lioyd's store and McXutt. the countv
site of Sunflower. Between two and
three hundred nearly the entire
white population of the county were
thus brought together in tiuie'to meet
the black array before it had proceed
ed more than a few miles on its
march. The opposing forces met in
j the road, and the negroes halted and
tired, wounding severely six of
I the most advanced of the
whites. The fire was imme
diately returned, which, my inform
ant states, resulted in killing twenty
three negroes and wounding between
fifty and sixty. This unexpected r.
pulse caused a general stampede ofj
Com bash's army, his doughiv war
riors throwing down their arms and 1
running through the woods in every j
direction. Many were picked up by
the whites and were found to be Minie
rifles made at Springfield as late as
UML Some were Minio rifles changed
kt the Needle gun. How did thev
procure these arms-.' Such weapons.
I supposed, could onlv be found in the '
Imiidw of I'nilfil ."stati-s soldiers. One
ward - lound cruelly murdered near

i cnu see no grounds lor doubt, as my
informant was an ev- witness, and is

a Keinieman ol iniel im-nec and

Comir.ittee-A. J.
Washington, Novemler 21. flo
many complaiLts have been made
regarding the delay in the settlement
ot claims against the Government,
occasioned by the red tape regulations
of the departments, that a bill will
be presented at the coming session of
Cougress, prescribing rules intended
to apply to all of the Auditing Bu
reaus, including the tuartermasb r
and Commissary Departments. The
bill will also provide that the same
publicity shall be given to the adjud
ication of claims that is now given to
i aes in court.
INDIAN AFFAIRS IN MONTANA.
Delegate Conranaugh, from Monta
na, iiad a long interview with the
1 'resident yesterday on the Indian
question in his Territory, and asked
that more troops may be sent there to
protect the settlers from depredations.
The President expressed his willing
ness to afford every protection within
his control, but did not seem to favor
a suggestion of the Grand Jury of
Montana that Indians should be made
as amenable to the civil law as the
whites, and tried by the courts in the
same way. The latter policy, how
ever is favored by the Secretary of the
Interior and Commissioner of Indian
allairs.
SENTENCE OF COMM ANKER 3EELY.
The revised sentence in the case of
Lieutenant-Commander Seely, of the
navy, tried for cruelty to his men on
the steamer Pawnee, is. that he be
s i-pended from command, furlough
or pay, with loss of all rank, for the
i period of four years.
A SINGULAR CA8E
Has arisen under the law ol the last
Congressfetrikingthe word white from
j all laws relating to the District of Col
i umbia. Rev. J. Stella Martin, the
pastor of a colored Presbyterian soci
ety in Washington, obtained not long
ago an order for the admission of his
daughter to the new Franklin School.
j The daugter is a handsome blonde,
j the father being a light mulatto, and
I ...... 1 I. .. : . i -. ... .
the mother being so white that no
trace of negro blood is noticed in her
face. The daughter took the position
assigned her in the classes, and for
some time it was not discovered that
tht belonged to the negro race. Upon
the tacts coming to the atten
tion of the school teacher, the girl
was refused admission to the classes,
ad although she attended regularly ':
instruction was denied her. The fa
ther appealed to the Mayor, and the 1
latter has called upon the Superinten
dent of Schools to see that the girl is
protected and treated like other schol
ars, or that a new teacher be found.
Mr. Martin inserted that there were 1
three otherchildren of the colored race
in daily attendance at the school, but
the teacher, after diligent search, has
tailed to discover them.
MEXICAN CLAIMS.
The Joint Commission to adjust the
claims of citizens of the United States
and Mexico, made against each other,
i i- - -1 . . . . . i
and which is created by a duly ratified
, net ween me i wo countries, will
i meet in this city in a few davs. it
preliminary organization having been
effected some time since. Already a
large amount of claims have been
filed by American claimants against
Mexico, whiih will exceed some tif-
teen millions of dollars. It is not
probable that the Commission will
make awards covering one-half of
that sum. Wm. EL Wadsworth, of
Kentucky, is Commissioner of the
United States.
PETITION FROM TOBACCONISTS.
Several prominent tobacco manu
facturers have petitioned Commis
sioner Delano to include in his annual
report a recommendation of the aboli
tion of the export stamp duties on ,
tobacco. They claim that under ex- ,
istiug regulations, the amount w hich
they are (equina to pay to the cus
tomhouse officials, to our Consuls
abroad, is so large that they can not
compete with manufacturers in other
countries.

bly the most villainous neirro living
one for whom the gallows, under civil
law, yet yen i ns used most incendiary
and inflammatory language at Green
wood, on the Yazoo river, advising
the negroes to go armed, and to kill
the whites perhaps better, to stop
the breed by killing women and chil
dren lirst. !So horrible was the advice
he gave that he was at once arrested, j
but succeeded during the night in
making a hole through the floor where !
he wras confined, and escaped. Ho I
went to Kiedsoe's place on the Talla
hatchie, twunty-tive miles above
ireenwood by water, but only six or
seven hy laud. Here a I it nre force of
negroes formed into line, aided by
another larger party at the McLean
place opposite. The negroes crossed
over and attacked the whites, firing
Mime twenty shots before the whites
I fired one. Then the white men an--wered,
killing, as it is reported, some
' ten or fifteen. A I'nited States officer
was on the ground soon after with a
j small squad, it was understood that
assurances were given that CbmDMh
was to leave the county. Certainly
as dangerous and develis'h a creature
as he is should no longer Ik- at large.
The penitentiary should restrain his
brutal instincts. At last accounts all
was quiet.
We also learn that on Wednesduv
last -Mr. Jo. Huke, a citizen of Yazoo
county, was killed at Dover, near Sa
tartia. Five or six shots were fired at
him by negroes, killing him instantly.
How long is all true Republican pa
tience to be abused by these modern
radical Catalines?
The Radicals of Mississippi, assum
ing the garb of saints to serve the
devil in to Ix'tter advantage, have
suddenly become liond-payers instead
of repudiators. The Vicksburg Tim,
