In our last number we commented upon Inc prop:si.
ton Of some of the Wing presses TO form nE'0% cN'i
Of Harrison and White, 10 be- run l"iny and anPcdg'o
IN the suppo-t of White but fee choose IL t:e sap.
nor. of either We look upon this prop"sliinA rs Goa
,on Of opposite principles for the purpose OF Greang
the Republican candidate for The Presidency Inc Ne
publican supporters of Judge White profess To urge ms
claims on the ground, that he advocates the princl-
res of the present Administration We shall not here
soo 10 consider what has been the character oil Judge
White in relation to the principles Of the pre-
sent Administration for the last eighteen nloh'hs O"s
simply to inquire: whether Gen II mas ever StsaI!i
the political principles, advocated by Ncn Jackson -
In the first place. Gen. Harrison sustained the corrupt
admnis ration Of John Quincy Adams. lie was one
of the electors who voted for Mr Clay lol Inc
CO. He supported he high tariff policy throughout
While in Congress- he voted Tor internal improvements
by the General Government. lie is bank man. and
M advocate for the recharer of the Dlted States Bank
In short he is m American SYSTEM man, and thorough
" in,5ued with all Mr. Clay wild schemes Of national
policy Now appealto the Republican supporters Of
Judge White the South whether they can, consistent
~ with their political principles, unite in the support OF
Union Ticket. the ostcnsbe object Of which is TO cle
vate Vim H. Harrison 10 the Presidency: That portion
of the Jackson patty which sustain the claims Of Judge
White the Presidency, profess to do SO, not because
the Judge is anti Jackson man, but because he sus-
tans the principles which General Jackson tor The last
cpht wears has SO ayGcnty labored to pcrpetuatc.-
Ii such is the fact how can the Jackson portion OF
the White party give their votes to William Il. 1ar-
rison, who has always been warning against all The po
Judge White principle they cannot continue tc sup.
port him. when thcy compromit their principles BY dnng
So And above all, they cannot consistently nor hon.
oraby consent TO make him too! in the hands Of sucn
Il man as VIVA. H. Harrison, WHO is opposed 10 every
political principle advocated by the South. They who
recommend the Lnina ticket the rca! friends Of
Hugh l.. White. From whom docs this proposition
come in Mississp2. First from the IichsLay Rets;cr
a paper which has always been opposed 20 the present
Administration, and ndiScriEnnatey TO every
which the Jackson party has Supported The PR"
position for Cni"n ticket is strongly seconded b. the
&dtc Rights SAnncr, press devoted TO the cause of
Modification and The advocacy Of principles which tend
TO dissolution Of the Union, and the destruction o! the
Government
These papers themselves up tie o1ecles Of the
White party in Mississippi Should not the Republican
portion Of the White party lcok with dlsirust cpon any
proposition coming from such source: Have not both
these presses been HE re"ilcrs of tud White prnci
pies, and Of the Judge himself, till within very rw
moSsss9 This rrnPosiiicn, therefore, does not
from the real friends of Judge White, but from his
mics The Wing party only with 10 White tool,
and will abandon him the moment they can do with
safety Hence this proposition to Union ticket
pledged Gigt the votes al hray be given to TAR
rson, who it supposed will be the strongest Opposition
candidate in the field. Why is this proposition made to
Miss,sppians! No supposes that II. has cry SIN
supporters in this State. II species o. manage
ment and clicanery, .ac the White electors if cho
sen for man, who could not find five hundred sup
porcrs in the State is proposition TO defrard the
people OF their sntrages, IN the ensuing Presidential
In Virginia. the snion ticket of White and Harrison
has been adopted Can ittc, that Judge White is &C.
cessory TO his corrupt and incesruGns union with The
Wings and NullEers lfhe is, i! is time for the honest
of all parties 10 their faces against politician. who
has become the plant tool Of his political opponents
Let the people but understand the length and breadth
ofthis proposition, and the prospects Of Hugh l.. White
are forever blasted in Mississippi The Wings and Null
lers may alnalgam in the support of Gen Harrison,
but no true republican friend Of the South, for
moment listen TO sUoh proposition
GEN. HARRIsoS.-Whcrevcr Gen. harrison is best
