May the kind band of providence "Wahu off all the misfortunes of life, and may she be re-WARD-ed hereafter. 07 Mr. 15ernd has just received a fine lot of plated and polished bits and stir nips ; a superior article of gut covered buirirv and carriage whips : also, a fine lot of silver and japan harness mountings, which he intends to make up in good style. He has bought his stock on unusually favorable terms, and cau therefore sell at reduced prices. It Crops. From all quarters of the country come rejoicings over the flour ishing condition of the growing crops. The refreshing rains thathavefalen in this region during the past week or two, have imparted a freshness and vigor to vege tation which may well challenge the gratitude of the husbandman. The pros pects for abundant harvests are unusu ally promising! . Masonic Ceremonial. Not the least interesting of the events of Commence ment week, was the laying of the corner stone of a new Masonic Hall, at Oxford. An oration of groat power, and full of chaste and beautiful thoughts, was pro nounced by Prof. Win. F. Stearns; after which, a fine gold-headed cane was pre sented by the members of Oxford Lodge to the lion. J. M. Howry. The cere mony was of the most beautiful and im posing character. Democratic State Convention. This body met in Jackson on the 4th inst. After wrangling and fuming a day or two, the following nominations were made : . For Governor. John J. Pettus, of Kemper. For Secretary of State. K It. Webb, of Pontotoc. For Auditor. Dr. E. R. Burt, of Nox ubee. For Treasurer. M. D. Ilayne?, of Yazoo. . Mon. Bloxdin's Tight-Rope Per formance. At length the incompara bly perilous and fool-hardy feat, of cross ing the Niagara river on a rope stretched across for that purpose, has been per formed, by a Frenchman named Blondin The Courier Des Etats Unis exults in the fact that this brilliant achievment was wrought out by a Frenchman instead of a Yankee. - Well, let Mon. Blondin and the French nation have all the glory We sincerely trust that no American wil be fool enough to attempt to rob them o: their laurels. Hunting an Item. During the past week we've been prowling around hunting for an item of some sort. Every day " from dewey morn till dusky eve," we bent all our energies to the task, but our perseverance has been unrewarded. Hankering round the Eclipse in the hope of seeing somebody slugged; gyrating about the suburbs of town fondly wishing for a sight at the bloody remains of some unfortunate victim of an assassin's bullet, but 'twas no go nobody would kill himself or let any one else kill him, and we bavo settled into the conviction that " this world is all a fleeting show, for man's delusion given." The Last of "Yb Gallant Zou ave." The personal property of Capt. DeRiviere was recently disposed of in the bar-room of the Philadelphia House, Jersey, at public vendue, by the Sheriff cf 'Hudson County. In two trunks, left in soak by the decamped " scamp," were found several cloaks, some uniforms, and a number of implements and articles, in cluding spurs, a sabre, a likeness of the Captain and of his bride, ice. The sale was effected by virtue of an order of the Hudson County Circuit Court, in order to pay a portion of the debt which the brave and honest Zouave owed to the proprietor when be mlziled. " Sie transit gloria, Ac." UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. The late Commencement was indeed a brilliant affair. In no college in the ... w United States are greater efforts made to elevate the standard of scholarship, and to send forth into active life soundly edu cated younjr men. The Fncnltv is an able and laborious one. The orovisions for imparting instruction are unsurpassed in any similar institution. Richly en dowed, as it has been, through the mu nificence of Congress, the State legisla ture has only to act honestly and honor ably by it to cause it to rival the first colleges in the union.' The amount due from the State, i, according to Gov. Mo Rae, $674,329,49. It has never cost the people of Mississippi one cent. The avails of its generous endowment have been absorbed into the treasury of the State ; and all its friends ask for it, is that it may receive a sufficient amount to enable it to fulfil its high destiny thus to become a fountain of immeasurable usefulness, and a monument of imperish able honor, to the commonwealth of which it bears the name. The Baccalaureate Sermon was preach ed in the Chapel by the Rev. .Wiley M Reed, from the 9th verse of the 10th chapter of Ecclesiastes : " Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might ; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom in the grave, whither thou goest." It was an eloquent discourse, and listened to with breath less attention. Monday was occupied by the Sophomore prize declamations and the celebratious of the Ilermean and Phi Sigma Societies, On Tuesday morning speeches were delivered by members of the Junior class. At 4 o'clock in the af ternoon, Hon. J. W. Clapp, of Holly Springs, delivered the annual address be fore the two Literary Societies, and, at night, Mr. F. W. Keyes, of Carrollton, addressed the Alumni. The exercises of the day were closed by a Levee given by the President. Wednesday was commencement day. A large crowd was in attendance, em bracing much of the beauty and the chiv alry of the State. At the conclusion of the usual exercises by the graduating class, the Hon. Win. L. Sharkey was in troduced to the audience, and delivered to the Law Class a most able and im pressive address, ine bopnomore pri zes were then announced and awarded by the committee, through their chairman, tho Hon. L. Q. C. Lamar, who, in a most eloquent manner 6ot forth the character istics of the true orator. At night a complimentary ball was given to tne Graduating Class, Tnus closed the exercises of one of the most interesting commencements it was ever our good fortune to attend. Every Mis- sissippian should feel proud .of such an institution, and should ever cherish it as the brightest jewel in the coronal which glitters on the brow of his own proud State. The prizes for Sophomoric declamation were awarded to W. C. Nelson, of Holly Springs, and F. W. Johns, of Hinds Co. Richard M. Leavell, of Pontotoc, deliv ered the Salutatory, and J. H. Stuart, of Hinds, pronounced the Valedictory Ora tion. The degree of B. A. was conferr ed upon I). P. Bestor, J.F.Brown, J.B. Buck, D. M. Buckner, S. S. Carter, G. L. Don ald. C. G. Eggleston, H.

Witherspoon Th e Pic-Nic Near Prairie Mount. Last Friday we shall ever remember as among the most agreeable days of our life. " From morn to sot of sun" we en joyed the music of sweet voices, and gazed on many happy, smiling, and sunny faces. We know not well bow the day could have been more pleasantly or more profitably employed. The Pio-Nic, in deed,, was one of the most delightful little social reunions that we ever remem ber to have attended. In addition to the good things, there we: e present not a few spirit-like creatures, who would make " a sunshine in a shady place." Thanks many thanks to our kind lady friends for their generous present of wine and cake a fit substitute, by the way, for the ambrosia and nectar enjoyed by the Gods and for relieving one otherwise, gloomy and monotonous day, from the cares and vexations of an editor's life ! Relented. J. R. S. Pitts has been released from the jail of Mobile. His friends In this State paid up all fines and costs against him. The imprisonment has done much towards engendering ill feelings between the people of the Eastern portion of the State of Mississippi, and the people of Mobile: Vichburg Sun. A STARTLING DISCLOSURE. Ex Attorney General Glenn recently delivered, in Yazoo City, a speech, a re port of which we find in the Banner. It is not our purpose to give an extended synopsis of this speech we only wish to call attention to one particular part that will doubtless cause a sneer of contempt to curl the lips of honest men. In the course of his remarks he touched upon the doctrine of Squatter Sovereignty, a doctrine which he confessed had puzzled him long and much. lie first began to investigate that question in the Cass and Taylor canvass. He was sub-elector for Cass in the county of Hinds, when the celebrated Cass Nicholson letter made its appearance. Its ambiguity puzzled him and he felt alarmed for the South. He wrote to Mr. Cass asking an explana tion, and, in due course of mail, received a reply, in which Mr. Cass stated that if he explained his letter in accordance with Southern sentiment, be would lose the support of all the Northern States, and if he adopted a Northern interpretation, it would kill him off in the South, that he bad promised the Convention not to write any more letters, and consequently could not give him any satisfaction on the subject. Which letter Mr. Glenn pocketed and voted for Cast, who has since ex plained the letter satisfactorily to his Northern friends. Party discipline would not allow him to publish that letter to the world. . Pitiable indeed must bo the condition of a man when party jgag stifles the ex pression of truths that vitally concern the interest and honor of his section. Yet, we are told, this man has the brazen effrontry to proclaim himself the particu lar champion and custodian of Southern rights and honor. Truly, he has proved himself a faithful guardian. JUDGE DOUGLAS. For some time past we have seen, trav eling the rounds of the press, a letter from the pen of this man, in which is ex plained his position in regard to the Pres idency. He talks as if he would be con ferring an honor on the Domecratic party by being a candidate, and says : " If that party shall determine in the Presidential election of I860 to adhere to the principles embodied in the compro mise of 1850, and ratified by the people in the Presidental election of 1852, re-affirmed in the Kansas-Nebraska act of 18 54 and incorporated with the Cincinnatti platform of 185G ; as expounded by Mr. Uucnanan in lus letter accepting the nom imation, and approved by the people in bis election ; in that event my menus will be at liberty to present my name to the Convention, if they see proper to do so." He also names some conditions such as the interpolation into the creed of the party any such issues as the Revival of the Slave Trade, or a congressional Slave Code for the Territories &c, under which he will not accept the nomination. The Mississippian salts down the little giant in short order. List its song. . ' , " There is a sublimity of absurdity in the idea that Douglas should speak with an air of gravity of his nomination for the Presidency at the hands of a party whose confidence, he has so wantonly abused, which baffles all attempts at serious re mark ; but the whole thing rises to an incal culable height of preposterousness when the same rekless undertaker of adventures arrogates to his infallible self the office of prescribing a line of policy for the gui dance of the party. If Arnold from the cavernous depths of infamy to .which his, treason had consigned had sent forth his voice to proclaim the condition upon whieh he would consent to become the generalissimo of the revolutionary army, this manifesto of Douglas might find its parralel," " Ysa have my Anawer." The Washington States has been ex ceedingly anxious, since the convention of the Douglas factiomsts, to extract a categorical answer from their organ, the Philadelphia Press, to the question, " Do they pledge themselves to support the nominations of the Charleston Conven tion' 1" -To this question the Press thus replies : If the nominees of the Charleston Con vention shall be the representatives of tne principle of non-intervention and pop ular sovereignty, as accepted, advocated and understood in 1856, as explained and defended In 1858 by Stephen A. Doug las and his associates, and as applied by the leading Southern statesmen, then do we pledge ourselves to support the nomi- nees oi mac convention witn all our zeal. But if, on the other hand, that Con vention shall be committed, in any shape, to the theory so eloquently denounced by the States that this Government is to be dedicated V to the propagation of sla very" then we shall unquestionably op pose its nominees." This Is proof sufficient as to the de signs of the traitorous faction and their unscrupulous leader. They intend if the Charleston Convention does not endorse the Freeport, or the Freesoil heresy of squatter sovereignty, to bolt, it wilrbe, in truth, a happy riddance. 0r Track-laying on the Bail-Road goes bravely on 2 miles above here.

EZEKIEL T. COX IN OHIO. Zanesville, 0., Juno 15, 1859. Ezekiel T. Cox, (the father of the Ohio representative commonly known as " Sunset Cox") has been for upwards of twenty years a member of good standing in what is called e the Market-street Church, of Zanesville, 0., and has resided upwards of forty years in and near that city. He has been United States Depu ty Marshal for the Southern District of Ohio for the last year or two, and had the fugitive, Charley Jackson, recently arres ted by virtue of a warrant in his hands. In consequence of Mr. Cox's action in this matter, the above Church resolved, among other things, that he " had par ticipated in the fugitive Blave case in a manner wholly unwarranted by the word of God, and by so doing had grieved his brethren in the church, and brought dis honor on the cause of Christ and the Church of which he is a member." In their preamble, the church stated that Mr. Cox, in acting as a Deputy Mar shal of the United States in this case, ac ted contrary to the spirit and teachings of out holy religion, and the express com mand of God himself, as recorded in Deu teronomy, 23d chapter, 15th and 16th verses : " Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped from his master unto thee," &c. This was the only portion of the Scriptures quoted, as we understand, to prove that his proceedings under tne Jt ugitive blave law was unwarranted by the Word of God. A special church meeting having been appointed to tryjhim for this offense, he was requested by a Committee of the church to appear before it on the 6th Inst., and present his views of duty in re lation to the matter. He accordingly appeared, and stated that he did not be lieve the church had any right to call him to an account for his action under the above law ; that it had been in force a number of years, and if so iniquitious, why had it not been repealed ? but as it was not repealed it ought, in his opinion, to be obeyed, and would be by every good law-abiding citizen of the Union. Mr. Cox stated to the church that it was preposterous to suppose that the above passage from Deuteronomy, written some thousands of years ago, had any applica bility to his proceedings under the Fugi tive Slave Law at all, and that the first verse of the same chapter, nnd divers others of the same book, might with as much propriety have been cited by the brethren to prove his conduct unwarran ted by the Word of God. Dr. Adam Clarke, one of the most profound schol ars, said Cox, remarks in bis commenta ries, as to this 15th verse of Deuterono my, that it means, " a servant of an idol atrous master, that lie might join himself to God and his people." "In any other case," continues this learned divine, " it would have been injustice to harbor the runaway." Mr. Cox showed that this fugitive, Charley, did not escape from idolatry to join himself to God and his people but ran away from a kind and humane master, stole a horse, saddle and bridle, and committed a criminal offence besides of the most afroeious character, with a poor, weak white girl. Yet, such a wretch, Mr. Cox stated, appeared to have enlisted the deepest sympathy of many of the leading members of the church, and that he was arraigned before it for no other cause than having perform ed his sworn duty as an officer of the United States in arresting such a miscre ant who, he stated, was not fit to run at large, or for any society, save practical amalgamationists or ultra abolitionists. Mr. Cox stated that he was cited to the laws and ordinances under the Mosaic dispensation, to prove his unwarrantable conduct as a professing Christian, and no reference made to the New Testament to prove it ; that be had been led to believe that the old dispensation, with its rites and ceremonies, and comparative dark ness, had been somewhat superseded by the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ, and he thought it would be better to ob serve His precepts and instructions, and those of His inspired Apostles than the ordinances of Moses enacted in those ear ly days of the world, and which he had shown were not at all applicable to this enlightened age, under the Gospel dispen sation. Mr. Cox said he had never been a slavery dropagandist, but that he bad always intended to be an advocate for the maintenance of the Constitution and laws of his country. Surely, said he, no nnstian of any pretensions to Intelli gence will deny that Slavery was at least recognized and tolerated when Christ was on earth, and during apos tolio times as well as under the Mo saio aispensation ; and referred to Paul to Col: "Servants obev in all things your masters according to the flesh," &o. Also his directions to Titus : " Exhort servants to be Obedient to their own masters, and to please them well in all things," &c. " Not purlioing. (that is. not stealing, as the fugitive Charley did,) but showing all good fidelity," &o. He also referred to the 3d chap. 1st and 2nd verses of Paul to Titus : " Put them (the brethren and those to whom he preached) in mind," (said Paul,) " to be subject to principalities and powers, to obev magistrates, &o. "To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, show ing an meekness to all men." "By principalities," Dr. Adam Clarke says, " we are to understand the Roman Emperors, or supreme civil powers in anyplace." " By powers," he says, " we are to un derstand the Deputies of the Emperors, &c, and all such aa are in authority un der the supreme powers. whAravnr dwell." . Mr. Cox also referred the Cnnron tn Paul to the Romans " Let every soul be subjected to the higher powers For there is no power but of God Whomso ever, therefore, resisteth the power, resis teth the ordinance of God j and they that resist shall receive to themselves damna tion for rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil.. Wilt thou not then be afraid of the power? Do that which is good and thou shalt have praise of the same." See 13th chapter, 1st, 2d and 3d verses. Mr. Cox then sustained his position by citations from Adam Clarke, Daniel Web ster, Henry Clay and others. Mr. Cox also stated that if a church member, a professing Christion or a real Christian is to be prohibited irora noiuing office under the government to which he belongs, by the Church of which he is a member, and that the laws of this coun try are to be executed and observed ex clusively by non-professors, it ought to be known, As to resigning bis situation as Deputy United States Marshal, (which be was re quested to do,) be said he would when be saw proper ; and, in the meantime, the Church might do, and he presumed it would, in his case, just what it pleased. After he left the meeting, a vote was taken, and he was excommunicated by a vote of 22 to 12 the whole number of bers being about 150. OUR NATURALIZED CITIZENS. The New York Herald, of the 16th ult,, contains a long letter from the Hon. John Minor Uotts, of Virginia, addressed, whilst on a visit to New York, to a number of native and foreign born citizens of the United States, who had requested his opinion in reference to the recent note of the becretary of btute, upon the subject of naturalization. The note referred to, is that written by Gen. Cass on the 17th of May, to Mr. Felix Li Clere, (a native of France, but a naturalized citizen of the United States, who resides at Memphis, Tennessee) in which, in reply to the in quiry from Mr. LeClere, he stated that "it is understood that the French Gov ernment claims military service from all natives of France who may be found with in its jurisdiction. Your naturalization in this country will not exempt you from that claim if you should voluntarily re pair thither." These statements of Gen. Cass have been constructed as a declara tion, on the part of the Administration, that it did not recognize naturalized cit izens who might place themselves volun tarily within the jurisdiction of the gov ernments of which they once were sub jects, as entitled to any protection from the government of the United States, and with this construction they have been severely criticised. Mr. Botts condemns the course of tho Administra tion, and denounces tho principle laid down by Gen. Cass, as a pusillanimous and detestable dmstrine, and asserts that a naturalized citizen of the United States, is free to go whereverjvinds and waves may carry him, and wherever he may go, is entitled to the protection of the govern ment. So, after all the affectionate blar ney about National Democratic love for " furriners," it seems that American citi zenship is mere mockery. If one puts himself outside the shelter of the " eagle" he has to " root hog or die." DIED On Hie 25th of .

But few short work ago, our beloved nod cherished friend wag wi:h us, lu the full vigor and strength of unuhood, with prospects for n hnppy, honorable mid useful eureer, seldom pon- sessed by one m young. Open and undisguised in all his nets, and a mind coiM'ious of its recti tude, be knew no policy, stive the dictates of bis own conscience, uml the promptings of Iiix own honest and manly heart; purely : unselfish in all bis feelings by nature, he was generous and chari table to a fault. But now, he is gone ; a space is left vacant in his once happy but now desolate home in our community in hearts of bis devoted wife and bereaved reUtl J, and his ma ny warmly atttached friends. How truly do we feel that the place he filled in our hearts shall be no more occupied forever. The icy hand of the Destroyer has chilled his noble heart, and that loved form now sleeps in the passionless em brace of Death. " Dust thou art, and unto dust sbalt thou re turn" is a serious and important admonition i it teaches us that however happy we may consider ourselves here, our enjoyments must be fleeting, and the day is not far distant when death shall place us like our brother, on a level with the clod, under which we shall repose.
