Conrier Jonnal: Tbe Mississ ippi Hirer eoiuinisoiou have deei-: ded to begin work on the Mismss-( Then-is some evidence in a com-ppi river at Plum Folntand Lake of the results of Yonng, Frovldence, where the river has pWHn nIHi Tattle's cxainiuotioii widened to two miles Bud has wjtM Krveys, that shoaled badly in conBetiuence of; tU(. wi(lt, tul. uasincroaM- tbe diffusion of water. The plan, after which the work will be done, is to give the river a uniform fixed width of 3,000 feet, and then the current will do the scouring out and will give permanent 10 foot channel to navigators. TIiIh is the common sense method of obtain iug a permanently good depth of i crease of volume which may have water, and the whole lower river tkti place, would iih rule' be ac-WUl bo treated in that way 'nianied by a general and cor- i responding deepening ait the re Apart of the labor of correct-: Hult of such general enlargement, iiig the shallows near Lake lrovi-: although local shoaling, tempora-dence should be tho closing of injurious to navigation, might Aahton break, as tbe aet unthorizea i 1 1 i bere is reuson to believe that levee work, and closing of breaks, dmi tl(J pwi(ll wMJ1 when done in the interest of navl-i were in their most perfect condi-gation.

But tho uieugrcncHK of lion, from 150 to the, chun- tliA nititfuit.i-iuttii.i will l.ulilt' of the river wan better irenornllv During the past week there hat, been a good deal of speaking in the various precincts; chiefly by Judge Alcorn and other Republican speakers, who have been striv-iiicr to destroy the poison intro duced by Lynch's speech here two weeks since. At Stoneville and Winterville they were aided by Capt. W. W. Stone, Democratic-Conservative candidate for the Legislature, in a manly and sensible upholding tho administration of State and local affairs by our party, that ought to prove convincing.

Judge Alcorn has spoken earnestly and ably in tho county during the past week and now leaves for Hinds county. There is no disguising the fact that since Lynch spoke here, there has been a change of tactics by the confusioiiist speakers. In speeches made' by J. F. Harris, Cart-wright and others, during the past week, as reported to us, all effort is directed to work upon the prejudice and ignorance of the colored voters.

Their speeches have been (juite as incendiary as those by which the carpet-baggers kept the negroes banded while they were plundering the county. Indeed the object of the confusion party iu this county could but be, even possibly, effectedjby this lino of action to which line pursuit of this object 1ms naturally gravitated. The effect of Lynch's appeal plainly afforded the cue to his followers iu Washington county, and they have taken it up. Heretofore, under appeals such as are now being made, inciting the colored laborers to regard the white planters as their enemies, wo have realized that reason is powerless. We earnestly Iiope that this realization, and the hopelessness attending it, will never again attend the earnest efforts of the ablest and best men of our community.

Wo do not believe 1 er this hope is base ess after next nil t-uuwmn, 1 inn mcnts which we publish. We urge upon the planters of the county that they attend and co-operate iu these meetings, mere is cuiiac tor just eompiiuni at the apathy displayed by the land owners in the pending elec-1 una; uere.u n.ey are enieny, ot all classes, interested. They should not forget the era of reeo.istruc uou nor nui 10 Know mat mere is a constant danger of the pies-, cut relapsing into the past. Be- member the dirilenlty, the abor: five efforts that attended the labor ill' ut'tfilluititr tin. tiA.t.tlf.

in tl.n w.v. 11 i. tiliition of 1 875. It was uot the first approaches to a subversion of locnl self-government that were resisted; nor the years of repeated ami constantly increasing robbery nmrbpprcssion that handed nil honest white men against the robbers. It was only when it became a question of confiscation or revolution that it was possible to organize effective resistance.

In this Ben King movement we see a repetition of the first step in the establishment of carpet-bag gov- i eminent; 'with the single change of I ic mnteihil, equally imjuin- eiiiled mid reckless, for the bagger. The appeals to the ignor ant voters, hy which a foothold may be secured, are identical with those made in lstilt. We have not yet done paying off the debts incurred by the carpet-baggers when we nre threatened with, rule of those having the same object in' endeavoring to secure the public oftires. We wan. all iirnnortv ner.

it i n. and crush out the first approaches of this movement. i Section Be it farther enacted, That the Sheriff shall not discharge jfroahis custody, any person oi whom any fine, penally, forfcHuro or amercement shall have been im posed by the judgment of any Court, who by snob judgment, in directed to stand committed until such fine, forfeiture, penalty or amercement shall be paid; or, who shall be in custody by virtue of any process for such fine, forfeiture, penalty or amercement unless such fine, forfeiture, penalty and amercement be folly paid or secured as herein after directed, Provided, Upon the certificate of anv physician and a member of the Board of Supervisors, that a prisoner is peruiautly disabled by disease or otherwise, from tbe performance of nianuel labor, then said prisoner may be discharged iu the manner now prescribed for the discharge of insolvent prisoners. The board of Supervisors shall-from time to time, make such orders as they shall deem expedient, regulating the terms and conditions upon which private persons may with their consent, hire prisoners detained iu custody for iioii-paymeiit of fines, forfeitures, penalties aud amercement of either and directing the distribution of such prisoners to the different road contractors of the county and the prices to be paid for the labor of such prisoners and the road hands. If such prisoners shall be hired out with his consent to a private person, such private person shall secure upon thc terms prescribed by the said Board, all the money for which said prisoner is detained including jail fees, physicians fees, drug bills, clothing, aud costs of every kind which may have accrued against li i in, and such per son so hiring said prisoner shall have the right to ret urn.

Tin: coj.Tit.UTou may woek such COXVHT IN JBON WAISTBAND OE TO A HALL AMI) At the request of leading Republicans, supporters of our State ticket, the following comment on thc above is published: The 'i'K'l of this letter is on at Jackson, its authenticity has "ev'r "or, denied. Republicans of Washington county can you voto for anthor-of such an atrocious law What claim has t-: Ben King upon members of the Republican party He has denied that he was a Republican, or had any sympathy for Republicans or Republican principles, (and has since reiterated the same on the stump) was not entitled to Republican support.

How is it with the other candidates Mr. Yellowly, candi- lieutenant-Oovemor Mr. Wimberly, candidate for And- itor, aud Mr. llowze, candidate for State Superintendent of Pnb- heretics, and bitter opponents of ftottfdtnlt of any levee wbrk being done at 1L Tosecuro ewk-ikst appropriation from Congress to carry oui me revomuienuauons or MieEivor Commission, is the ou. u.

i i jeet of the St. Louis Convention, carry out the recommendations of wwcnmetoiituejotuiiist. fiinee appending the above par- agraph to the extract from tho Couriiu Jountiil, we find the fob lowing from the Scientific American, diaenssiug the objects of the Mississippi River Improvement Commission, end bad condition of navigation on the Mississippi: "The' first thing to be done is to atop this caving lv suit-, able works of bank protection, anchas a brush mattress toil with stone or some other, species of revetment or cover-, ing, extending down from the crest of the bank into deep water. Tfiehestetep will be to narrow the stream to such widths between the high river banks that the current, with the increased velocity produced by the, narrowing, will aeoltr out and maintain, ovcu daring tho low river stages, the depths required for navigation. This will be done by contracting the stream, usually at points opposite the con--cave bunds, through the agency of light, permeable dykes, placed either longitndinally or transversely to the shore, or both.

These dykes, composed of brush hurdles, or of wire and brush screens, or some similar device, will allow the water to pass through them with more or less freedom, and, by checking without arresting the cttrrent, TfflU eouvert huge areas nest the shore into stilling or settling basins, within which the river itself is expected, during the Hood stage, to build up new banks and establish new and advanced shore liaes by constantly depositing the solid matter which it transports, but which tho unimpeded flow would carry down to the Gulf of Mexico. Works of this general character will be begun as soon us the working plant is ready upon nearly seventy miles in length of tho worst navigation below Cairo namely about forty miles on the Ruin Point stretch, above Memphis, and thirty miles in the vicinity of Lake Providence, above Vicksburg. Nothing will be done upon the levees. It is expected that work will begin about Octo ber 1st." The above correctly outlines the present labor of the Commission. But the statement of the Scientific American, in reference to the lev- a.a in nnl wnrrantoil liv llio trrnta VI uiuian.

They are; in, sbo jnsj snch men as all good citizens can support and vote for with pride, for having given them our snffra- ges. In politics they are just what they claim to be, and they are too honorable to undertake to seek your votes, and secure their election by the practice of fraud and deception upon the people by pretending to be what they are not They do not profess to be Republicans; but we as Bepublicans, having no State ticket of our party in the field, say to you in all candor and sincerity, that yon as citizens will do yourselves great credit in manfully choosing the best of the two tickets, and sap-port and vote for the Lowry ticket, in preference to the mongrel ticket headed by Ben King.

As citizens yon should wisely make yonr choice, and act well your part iu the coming election. It is the duty of every citizen to vote, and it is equally his duty to east hia ballot in such manner as will elect the best men to office, and secure the best administration of State and local government. The canvass is drawing to a close. But a few more days remain for us to decide how we can best discharge the responsibility that rests nnnn nil and winnlv nsfl thn trrpftf upon an, ami wisely nse we greai orivuege ui uin uuiiol so us io so- rto diuI cure uie peace ana gooa oruer ot society, and promote the general wellfare. Let ns lay aside party passion and prejudice against par- ty names, and for once at least sink the partizau in the patriot, and vote for General Lowry aud his whole ticket and peace, good will and lasting friendship between the races will be the result, and a general prosperity will surely follow.
