 Your friend, &c. SAMUEL GWIN. To Vim. Tanning, Esq.,
 .a copy of He resolutions.
 "At meeting ot the citizens of Taahatcha comfy, at the house of on the day of 1884. who were In favor of Andrew Jackson, the following resolutions adopted:
 Resolved, That VIC entertain the highest veneration for the character and services of Gen. Andrew Jackson President of the United States,
 Resolved, That the recent vote of censure and con demnaon by the Senate of the United States, of Gen Andrew Jackson, act of unprecedented violence and an insult to the American people, iii the person of their President.
 Resolved, That We fully approve of the course of 1Pl PlkS0p eIufior ,ct ted States; and that opposed to the restoration of the Government Depostes to said Bank
 Resolved, That We approve of the coiirse of the Hon. F. E. Piummer, he being inc only member from the State that truly represents the interests of the peo- pie.
 Resolved, That and be appointed De- legates to the Jackson Convention, that meets at Jack son on the second Monday in June, to represent the county of Ialahatcha Ill said Convention.
 Resolved, That the proceedings of this meeting be signed by the President and Secrctafy and published in all the papers of this State friendly the Admins tration.n
 How flaming the devotion of heso resolutions! but whefe did they originate? With the meeting by which they were adopted certainly not, but in the closet of Samuel Gwln. Who is this Samuel Gwin! We may all remember that he was, from the occupation of a Clerk in one of the Departments at Washington, where he had been schooled in he principles of subserviency appointed by Gen. Jackson, Register of Public Lands at Mount Salus, Mississippi. We may also remember his rejection by the Senate his disappointment in the recess of Congress, his subsequent rejection by the Senate, and finally of his appointment as Register of 9ubllc Lands at 1hocchuma having obtained the cha racter of citizen, the absence of which the main cause of his former rejection. With what Mr. Gwtn rewards his superors and plays of his servty, let the resolution in relation 10 hr. Hummer speak That resolution declares that Hummer is the 'only member from the State that truly represents the inter- est of the peopei' When did he become that truly good representative? He not always so consider cd for Gwin informs us that similar resolutions had been adopted in all the lower counties, ssave that in regard to Hummer" Why had not the lower coun ties adopted that also? Hear the reason given by Gwin at the conclusion of his letter. He says that ''he Mir. Pummer had not then made his speech Tn regard to Gen. Jackson.o It was on his making that speech, then that he obtained the ennoblng quality of good representative The ssonly member from the State Mississippi, that truly represented the interest of the people" Can such base servilty such heaess hypocrisy be tolerated in land that claims be free? Those who at all curious about the origin of the Benton letter, may find solution i'll the proceedings above sketched. They may imagine, If they please, the Juno III secret conclave a Washington revolving in their minds the defeat of Judge White and the elec- lion of Martin Van Rufen. They look at the South and West and the bright and increasing prospects of Judge White. They there the unerring ndica- ton of the defeat of their darling child Martin Van Bu- fen. Something must be speedily done. They unan- mously agree 10 send their letter missve Col. Sa- mucl Gwin, of Mississippi, requesting him to put in quison his ingenious mind in calling State Conven- ton to nominate Martin Van Buren and Thomas Ben ton candidates for the offices of President and Vice President of the United States and appoint Delegates If they choose, to represent that State Naiona Convention which IS to assemble at Baltimore Col Gwin has his usual success-the Convention assem- bles--the nominations made Then is given to tho breeze Col Bentons laborcd epistle. Simultaneously with it's departure for Mississippi it is published il I Washington, whence 1t is sent Ill newspapers and il Happy device! How well it succeeds! The wholt earth seems fearfuly concussed by this tremendous
