l.cssons of the Census.
“A close study of tlic detailed
report of the census taken in
U iSM6sippi affords some interest'
i i; lessons,” remarked an obser
vant citizen. “1 have examined
llie bulletin just issued by the
department, and i' shows moft
Icbiis| icuously that llie towns
where trie largest per ceutHgo of
increase in populttion is given
are places where, manufacturing
industries have been established.
On the other hand, towns that
liavo been slow in establishing
itulustrics show almostno growth
whatever. Thu lesson is not
.necessary to explain. Mississip
pi’s ouly hope for continued
prosperity is a continued promo
tion of manufacturing enterpri
ses. We positively cannot ad
rance in a material way without
them. Our path to prominence
and prosperity is well-defined
and all who have the energy may
follow, it. A town destitute of
energy and ambition is surely
doomed to retrogression. The
logic of transpiring events can
not be denied and the larger the
number of factories established
in a community the more superi
or will be the inducement it of
fers to the new residents.”—Ex

Some of the Northern brethren
are very uneasy about the future
of the negro. They beiieve that
he is being persecuted -in every
Southern State, but generally is
treated like a brother at the North.
They are laboring under the mis
taken impression that because
Mississippi in particular will not
allow him to eat at the same table
witfi the whfye people >r-vo^H«
self in and the white man out of
office he is not entitled to (he
rights granted him by the Consti
tution. It is true we have dis
franchised the negro, or rather he
has disfranchised himself; but the
negro cares lees for this than
Mr. Orumpacker or other lje pack
ers xvbo have come forward fs the
nfjjpro’s friend and champion. The
negro himself is taking no stock
iu such wails. He is contented if
e ’possums and the watermelons
the hen’s roosts are not too
s&rce or too closely watched.

the white man. He ban the wh
right there also to aell his vote to
the highest bidder as he used to
nave in this State, bat instead of
remaining there and exercising

are making no complaints either

question w to know
right there must come the revela
tion of a singular 'connection be
tween social, moral and divine
law. The basis of alt law or rather
of all true respect of law must be
love of Borne character. If there
exists a real reverence for the law
of social purity, it is because the
affections are charmed by the good
offered there. If the law of clean
moral finds favor it is because the
heart’s emotions tend to the love
of the pure. If the divine law ie
accepted as it should be then it is
by reasou of the fact that a Higher
and grander influence thau the
grovelling things of this ti e has
taken an abiding place in the af
fection. The substance of law of
all kinds rs ofiani SPe ami there
can be no true obedience where
love does not exist. Without love
obedience loses its beauty, is a
■ere matter of tores of fear, not
that fear which fromithe prompt'
tngof love would not offend, but a
■lavish fear. From love comes a
free, spontaneous, joyous obedi
ence, which is a source of happi
ness and comfort alike to giver
and recipient. When Christ the
divine son of Cod was approached
by a spokesman of the scribes and
