When the new penitentiary board met after the adjournment of the legislature. it was said that Mr. Vic Pockery, son if Bon. O. II. Dockery, had been ap pointed steward. It now turns out that Governor Russell opposed this appoint ment and has prevented Mr. Dockery rom taking charge. It new comes to light that he has secured the place for James Mott, son of Dr. J. J.

London.-The chief points of Interest n the situation are; f irst, that the lecision of the ministers who have re timed from the Greek frontier seems to e in favor of a continuance of war; and tfcond.that fighting continued almost ier essantly at Velestino from last Tuesday intil Sunday, with the result that Gencr- d Smolensk! has been prevented from i xtually assuming his new duties as chief if staff. As a further result, the Greeks at Vel- stlno have managed to retain t'.ieir lositios, but thejr'are too much fatigued o follow up their success. The Turkish army is advancing in three olumns on Pharsalia, while an addition lil column is operating in the direction of j volo. As the Volo column could easily ake Velestino in the rear, the Greek po sition Is very precarious. This probably explains the retention of General Smo lensk! there, as it was natural to expect him to go Pharsalia to assume the eu prome command. Everything points to in inevitable retreat by the Greeks on OomoJcoa. It is rumored that many officers have told the Crown Prince Constantino that the will return their swords unless they are led against the Turks. There is a strong feeling at Pharsalia that the troops must advance. The despair over the mistakes of the campaign has been ol - literated by a desire to regain the esteem of Europe, Only 4,000 soidiere arc actu ally posted at Pharsalia. The remainder are distributed in well-chosen positions Discipline is improving, though organi zation iss till somewhat defective. NEGROES AS POSTMASTERS. ttfinlnlHtrntlon ila No Oealreta nl race the Henalblllllra r Wblle Vta plo In the Month. Washington, May 3. Postmaster- IGenerul Gary was asked today what tin policy of the administration is to be with regard to the appointment of negroes ai ,)oslniaster8 in. Southern Stutes. "it is a question mat lias not vet teen cirsidcred," lie said, "and one which ban not therefore discuss. It must he de termined, however, anil until it is I can wt venture an opinion regarding it." The appoint :ic::t or a negro at Au U9ta, Ga., it i? has convinced tlx ?09tnia9ter-Ucnornl that further appoint- nents of a lilte character are apt todi nore harm than good. 1 li.- question m' arrasses the administration, hhis- nuch as it is un lerstood to be the desire if the President to recognize the negroei f the South in the distribution of offices mt, at the samo lime, he has no wish t utrage the sensibilities of the whites. Southern republican leaders find them wives forced to urge the appointment ol colored men, while the President realize) that a great deal is due them for the sup port they gave him in the conventior at St. Louis. But, notwithstanding this it may be assumed that neither the President nor the Postmaster-General wishes to appoint negro postmasters, and it is probable an effort will be made to obviate the difficulty by asking the local leaders not to urge them for sue h posi tions. Weekly Crap llctln The week ending J' on lay, May 8rd, was again generally titrable for farm rk, l)ut cioj made comparatively slow growth on account of the drought which was, however, broken throughout the State by generous rains April 80th and on May 1st.

Sunday after the rain was very cool. The drought was broken by flo. showers Friday and Saturday, whioh thoroughly soaked the ground, so that prospects for next week are much better. Cotton is pretty well all planted except in north porMon.and a good stand Is now Insured. Corn about all planted and some being plowed; generally a poor stand reported; some damage by cut' worms.
