THE MISSISSIPPI
Governor Humphreys, of Mississippi,
has been greatly exercised in mind about
the presence of Federal troops on the
sacred soil of his State. He considers
them a nuisance and offence, and a most
disturbing element. He is perfectly
able to preserve the public peace, with
the State Militia, and we believe his
gubernatorial anxiety has already been
Soothed by a withdrawal of the dis
'agreeable blue coats. As an evidence
of how well-founded this loyal Gover
nor's confidence in his militia is, a
Vicksburg correspondent supplies the
following synopsis of the by-laws
adopted by a company of Mississippi
State Militia recently organized at the
capital of that State :
"The Company votes to adopt the regula
tions and tactics of the Confederate Army.
"No one admitted as a member or the
Company who was not in fie Confederate
Army, or who was not frrendly to the Con
federate cause. Motto--" Pry us."
"The uniform to •be gray, but the button
and insignia of rank to be the same as in
the United States army."
These are pleasant people to whom
to commit thefortunes of a State which
is supposed to have returned to its alle
giance to the Federal Government.
This is a substantial encouragement for
us to restore to them the civil rights and
privileges of citizenship. This is the
evidence of returning loyalty which we
are told is the tendency of the masses of
he :-outh. These militia-men of J ick
son are fair specimens of a very large
• portion of the Southern people, and we
think that it would .be very strange if
it were otherwise. Poison taken into
the human system lingers and lurks for
years, despite the sharpest and most
skilful treatment; and the virus of
slavery and the heresy of secession, in
stilled into the body politic of the South,
have been too thoroughly di*.eminated, •
to permit a reasonable hope of any such
miraculously sudden cure as many good
• people have fondly hoped for. The case
cited above is a specimen of the way
these people glory in their shame, and
cling to the empty symbols of their
•,* treason and rebellion, even now when
they have ' become the symbols _ also of
defeat and subjugation. .
Of all the wrongs done by the South
ernileaders to their own people, none is
so bitter as this deinoralization of the
public mind in all its political relations
The losses which came from devastated
fields, sacked cities, destroyed railroads,
burned bridges, emancipated slaves and
ruined fortunes, can all be replaced by
the industry and enterprise of the people;
but only by slower processes and with
the growth of another generation can
the prejudices and sophistries, the bit
terness and hate, implanted by unscru
pulous demagogues and false teachers,
be done away. We ought not to wonder
at the state-of feeling that we see mani
fested at the South. It is the most ordi
nary exhibition of human nature sub
jected to the influences which have been
at work.upon it for fifty years past. The
training of two or three generations is
not to be done away by the surrender of
an army or the crushing of an armed
rebellion. The roots lie deeper, and
time, patience and a wise discipline are
needed, before the deep-seated mischief
can possibly be thoroughly extirpated,
and a people, whose natural atmosphere
has been so long one of Slavery with all
the pestilent miasmas that are insepa
rable from it, can be taught to breathe
and move and have their being com
fortably and healthfully in the pure at
mosphere of Freedom.
TEM STATE WAR DEBTS.
A report has been made in the House
of Representatives, at Washington, re
commending a partial re-iMbursement
to the several States of the expenditures
for carrying on the war against the
Southern rebels. These expenses, as far
as can be ascertained, amount to about
$475,000,000, though we think the
accounts of some the States might be
reduced by a little overhauling and a
demand for vouchers. New York, for
instance, presents a bill of $111,005,953;
Massachusetts one of $47,800,827, and
Ohio one of $64,867,813, while the bill of
Pennsylvania is but $53,527,395. The
Committee; however, propose to reim
burse the States in proportion to the
number of men furnished by each for
the Government service, allowing $55
per man, the whole number being re
duced to a uniform standard of three
years' service. The payment is to be
made in registered 5 per cent. bond,,
redeemable after twenty years from
date.
The plan of the Committee seems to
be a fair and reasonable one. We
do not suppose that any of the
States have ever thought of claiming
full payment of all their war expenses.
But some partial return was needed, and
under the plan proposed, the burden of
its payment will be shared by the dis
loyal States, whose wicked conduct
brought on the war and compelled the
loyal States to give to the Government,
hundreds of thousands of soldiers. The
share of Pennsylvania will be $14,715,-
690. If we get this, or any other con
siderable sum, we presume the State
Government will distribute it equitably
among the various cities and counties,
according to the bounties paid and the
number of men furnished byeach. In
this way part of our heavy municipal
debt, contracted during the war, may be
extinguished,and our local taxation mv
be reduced. The bill as reported has
been re-committed, and as each State
represented in Congress is interested in
its passage, we presume there will be no
serious opposition to it.
AMATEUR OPERA.-001104rt Hall wag
filled with a fashionable audience, last
evening, for the third performance of Italian
opera by amateurs, under the direction of
Mr. Perelli. The opera was Lucrezia
Borgia, with Mrs. Davis (n 2 e Jarvis) as
"Lucrezia," Miss Deni,gre as "Orsini," Mr.
Waterman as "Gennaro," Mr. A. Taylor as
the Duke, and Mr. Nathans as "Gubetta."
Mrs. Davis has a lovely, delicate sympa
thetic voice, of great flexibility, and her
method is excellent. She sang the whole
of the music of her part like a true artist,
acting, also, with intelligence. Miss
Denegre was very good also, and received
an encore in the drinking song. Mr. Water
man made an extremely good "Gennaro,"
his voice being a high tenor of good quality,
and under excellent control. Mr. Taylor'.
personation of the Duke was really fine,
both in sinning and acting. Mr. Nathans
performed his not very interesting part vary
satisfactorily and the subordinate parts
were well filled. The applausu throughout
the performance was most enthu , ia.iti,: an, I
there were several Balls before the curtain.
The orchestra WAS: very vond and the ah , rn-.
though small, was efficient and correct.
Lucrezia Borgia will ne repeated at the
same place on Tuesday evening next.
AN INTERESTING LECTURE.—On Monday
evening Professor R. E. Rogers, of the
University of Pen nsylvania, will deliver his
second lecture on the phenomena of Natu
ral Philosophy, including experiments in
Chemistry, Electricity, and Electro-Magnet
ism. We rejoice to see the increasing efforts
which our scientific men are making to pop
tOerize sdit nce, and to afford to the intelli
gent masses of our community an insight
into the mysteries ofNature which surround
them. Dr. Rogers has devoted the proceeds
of these most interesting lectures to the
Soldiers' and Sailors' Home, a fact which
forms a strong additional attraction to them.
The first lecture was so largely attended
and so keenly enjoyed that there can be lit
tle doubt about a crowded.: utilise on Mon
day night. Those who, hive not yet pro
cured their tickets, which are reserved
without extra charge, can do so by applica
tion to T. B. Pugh, Sixth and Chestnut
