vacancy occasioned by the death Of the
lamented Judge pHiLLrFs. There arc
five candidates for that responsible and

SrLAs BRowS, Of Kinds county, Is The
only Wing candidate. Erery one of his
opponents are in favor Of The present

great democratic victory, and tend TO the
INJURY Of our caJse in other States, by
conveying the idea that Mississippi j.

Gen BRowN has been resident OF
this State for the last twelve or fifteen
years. His interests and feelings arc
wholly identified with those Of Mssis-
sippi,--and the strictest honesty ant
most stern and unwayering integrity
have always characterized his course
lie has filled several responsible offices
with credit to himself, and satisfaction
10 the community. He is, and always
