held at Benton, Yazoo county, on The 3rh ~
The objects of the meeting were to bring ,bo.,
a reunion Of the State rights aud democrats, =.
ties, and TO appoint delegates to the convent.
to be held in Jackson this winter. We look =.
on this as most important movements, 4.

ciples. We hope that the example so uobIy q,
by Yazoo. will be followed up generally in eyer,
county in the State. The state rights and d,mo.
cratic parties are Identical in principle, and hare
the same objects in view, why then should A.,

udna,an construction of federalism.
Our friends in Yazoo are warm and sangrn
They do not believe that Henry Clay can get
majority Of the votas Of the county, noiwths,ah

of the gentlemen who attended the meetings.
Benton thus writes US:
81 hasten to inform you of the first davnn
of political light in the county of Yazoo, which
, hope will so increase as TO oycrSpread the poll
cal horizon Of this State. The Ball is just in ND
on and will be kept so until the sense Of he
F, community is expressed, and when the. mmdsd
, the people are once brought TO think senouslyH
the tue political state of the Union they canrs
hesitate TO determine which is the proper cors
for them to pursue. We held meeting in Res
ton yesterday, in which the nullitiers joined and
after some discussion Of the actual position
aud relation between the nulhGers and dehe
Gratis or state rights party proper, il was deter
mined that if any difference Of principle existed
between them they had the same object in WEN
and they should unite and cooperate heartily d
gether te effect that object. They accordnsh
did unite, and appointed Committee who adoe
ed resolutions. which, as far as they COL think
will meet the appreciation Of esety tue Dcms

"A great, and think general reyolUGona
political parties is about TO take place. and b.
gin to think that in few months the name d
whigi as now understood, will he almost extinct
in M'm least amongst the planters, except lh@t
who profess the old federal docrinc. Many con-
, spicuouS persons, who have heretofore been d.
nominated wings, have abandoned the party so iS
as to go against the u. S. Bank and Henri
Clay for President, and these you know are lea
ding articles IN the wing faith. wouldas sOoa
r have expected move Of the kind which have
above described 10 take place in Boston as IA
, zoo. But their eyes are now opening, and ya
need not be surprised to see our Representative
instructed 10 support the Democratic candidate
for U. 5. Senator; if they should be, thostn
the lower house will obey, for our Senator who's
Federalist of the Boston stamp will dlsregat
