THURSDAY, MAY 29. 1873. DESPOTISM. The telegraph announces that the proclamation of Mr. President Grant, relative to the “usurpation” in Louis iana, excited “surprise in all circles.” Indeed 1 And is it possible that any circle can be at all surprised at the ac tions, in any capacity, or towards any seotion, of the illustrious Chief of the Nation? When the eye had become accustomed to see, day after day, and the ear to hear, the many and ponder ous strides to Centralism and Imperi alism, we concluded the terms sur prise and astonishment had become sense less and meaningless—that they were but words, words, words pronounced,in deed, but undefined. Surprised! And can Washington circles be surprised ? Arc they indeed capable of emotion ? Why, really, we thought they Jiad been schooled to ac cept everything at the hands of the il lustrious as a matter of course. Surprise! Then there is hope for ua. Matters may not bo so bad after all.— Cireumstauoes often alter cases—and the relations borne by Mr. Grant to ward the people of these States —and especially those south of Mason and Dixon’s—may yot be changed by the surprise he creates in the circles around him. We hope the change will be in fluenced by this means. A change is desired, and must be made. If uot by the surprise and indiy notion of his own people, created by his many overt acts, unwarrantable intrusions, and egregious blunders—then, once again, force will meet force, and the clang of arms, the fierce rolling of artillery, the dying j groan, and victory’s triumphant shout will be heard, “ For Freedoms battle once begun Bequelhed from bleeding sire to son, Tho’baffled oft is kvbr won.” F. A PATRIOTIC WISH. Very recently two Massachusetts de tectives, in search of a swindler named Wilbur, whoso arrest has already been duly chronicled, had occasion to lay a requisdion for the criminal before Gov ernor Smith. His Excellency, after investigating the facts in the case, in formed the detectives that he was not only glad torespoudto the legal require ment of the Massachusetts Governor, but expressed a siucere regret that the document was not more geueral in its terms and specifications, in order that he might, give the officers au opportu nity of carrying off a train-load of car pet-baggers. Whether the detectives properly appreciated the promptness ot the Governor doos not appear, but his willingness to assist them was pithily expressed, and the sentiment will bo generally echoed. —Savannah News. Wo are delighted to note the popu larity of our nomination of Oaptaiu Jack for President and Shaok Nasty Jim for Vice. The Louisville Courier- Journal, a captious, unreasonable sheet, objects on the ground that Captaij Jack don’t run well. If the independent press is going to act in this absurd manner,we will have to create a vacancy by retiring from Us ranks. Captain Jack has all the elements necessarv for y a popular candidate. He is coarse, brutal, ignoraut and vicious. There is no discount on his pluck, while his hands are Btained with blood shed di roctly by himself, and not by proxy.— Wo do not know as to his family, but doubt not that it is oxteusive and in capable. He will make a first-class President if lie escapes casuality and scalping. It would be bad to have a President who had been scalped, al though we have bad several who ought to have been.— Washington Capital. A woman in Fort Madison, lowa, was expelled from church for putting her fingers in her car while a man whom she disliked was praying. *What goes up the hill, and down the bill, yet nivor moves?

On motion, the convention adjourned sine die. J. R. Christian, Secretary. Curious Christians. —The creeds of two African Churches in Yazoo City ( Mississippi, are of such a puzzling char acter as to forbid all attempts at formu lation. They shout like the Methodists, immerse with the Bapti-ts, have god fathers and godmothers, and observe Ea< or and Good Friday with the llo man Catholics and Episcopalians, and observe various fetish practices besides, so that if the truth is with auy sect, Christian or Pagan, they stand a pretty fair chance of being in the right some times. LOUISIANA’S FATE. IN THE TOILS OF DEPOTISM. A Proclamation By the President. Washington, May 22.—The follow ing excited surprise in all circles hero to-day: a 'proclamation. Whereas, under tho pretense that Win. P. Kellogg, tho Executive of Louisiana, and the officers associated with him in the State administration wore not duly elected, certain turbu lent and disorderly persons have com bined together with force and arms to resist the laws and constituted authori ties of said State; and whereas, it has been duly certified by tlm Inferior and Supreme Courts of said State, that said officers are entitled to hold their offi ces respectively and execute and discharge the functions thereof; and whereas, Congress at its late session, upon a due consideration of the subject tacitly recognized the said Executive and bis associates then and now in of ’fico by refusing to take nny action with respect thereto; and whereas, it is pro vided in the Constitution of tho United States that the United States shall pro tect every State in this Union on appli cation of the Legislature, or of the Ex ecutive,\v!i:n tho Legislature cannot be convened,against domestic violence; and whereas, it is provided in the laws of the United States that in all caacs of insurrection in any State, or of obstruc tion to tho laws thereof, it. shall be law ful for the President of the United States, on application of tiic Legislature of such State, or of the Executive, when the Legislature cannot be convened, to call forth the militia of any of these States, and to employ such part of the and and naval 1 forces as shall lie judg ed necessary for the purpose of sup pressing such insurrection or causing the laws to be duly executed ; and whereas, the Legislature of said State is qot now in session, and cannot be convened in time to meet, the present emergency, and the Executive of said State under section 4 of article 78 of Constitution of the United States, and tho laws passed in pursuance thereof, ).as therefore made application to me for such part of the military force of the United States as may be necessary and adequate to protect said State and the citizens thereof against domest’c vio lence and to enforce the due execution of the laws; and whereas, it is required that whenever it may be necessary in the judgment of the President to uie the military force for the purpose afore said, lie shall forthwith by proclamation command such insurgents to disperse and retire peaceably to their respective homes witliin.a limited time. Now, therefore, I, TJlysses S. Grant President of the United States, do here by make proclamation, and command said turbulent and disorderly persons to disperse and rctirepeaceably to their respective abodes within twenty day* from this date, and hereafter to submit themselves to the laws and constituted authorities of that said State, and I invoke the aid and the co operation of all good citizens thereof to uphold the laws and preserve the public peace.— In witness whereof, I have hereunto set mv hand, and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at the City of Washington, this the twenty-second day of May, iu the year of our Lotto one thousand eight hundred aud seventy-throe, and of the independence of tho United States, the uinety-seveulh.

Ohio Politics. —The Republican Convention which met at Columbus, 0., on the 22 instant,nominated Noy es for Govornor and Hart for Lieu teuant-Governor. The platform is mostly but a recapitulation. The in dustry of the country should have the cheapest and best transportation ; de mands pure official conduct and the punishment of unfaithful officers; de nounced the Credit Mobiliers. The in crease of salaries is eondemed as un wise. The platform favors the short ening of the probationary term to citzenship. Rule of Practice in the United States Circuit Court.— Judge Bend, of the United States Circuit Court, sit ting at Lynchburg, Va., had an order entered that hereafter, in all cases where supervisory jurisdiction of this court is invoked in bankruptcy proceedings, a petition shall be filed in the Circuit set ting forth the facts in the petitioner’s caso so far as is necessary to show the matter or proceedings complained of, a copy of which said petition shall be served on the opposite party or parties at least ten days prior to the hearing, and that all the papers used in the Dis trict Court shall be copies, and not the original.

Much of the cotton planted in the month of April will have to be plowed up and replanted, and a great breadth u land that was intended for cotton, owing to the wet weather, is not yet planted. Cut-worms are making havoc of the early eon:,— Sumter Republican. The few days have been splend id weather for crops. The days and nights both have been warm, and the ground is moist and in splendid condi tion. The farmers —except those on the jury—are buoyant and hopeful, and prospects now are that all the crops will be better than was anticipated.— LaGrange Reporter. Wc still have encouraging reports from the crops iu this county’. Wo have beard from all sections of tho county within the last week. In some sections there is a complaint of too much rain, but no serious injury yet. The indiea tions now are that the weather is settled and the planters will soon have thoir crops in good condition. We think the great mistake is too much cotton, not enough corn.— Quitman Independent. Crops are beginning to revive under thegenial influeucoof the pleasant weath er wc have had for the last week, and' they now present a more hopeful promise to the farmers. Wheat is generally very poor, and but little interest is felt in its prospects. Corn and cotton begin to grow nicely, and generally farmers have good stands. The cut worms however, are doing slight damages in some locali ties. From Mr* Allison, the energetic agent of the Russell Reapers, who has just returned from an extensive canvass of this and surrounding counties, we learn that the wheat prospects are dis tressingly poor.
