The letters have since been received OF the Office

does not appear that the "double letters contained

RAILROADS.

Of three railroads now in course of construction it
is believed that the Housaonic is decidedly the most
meritorious. We have reason to believe that this
undertaking was regarded with great favor by many of
the members ofthe late Legislature but it was mpos-
sble any thing for without committing the State
in favor Of the other roads. On full, mature, and most
anxious consideration, the Legislature thought that
the proposed measure should for the present be
dopted. Every one will agree that the Legislature
should act with caution in regard to matter of such
high import. They were called upon to bind the prop
erty Of the people of the State to an immense amount,
and were not the members right in manifesting wish
to consult the Peope Not one in ten knew that the
subject was to be brought before the Legislature when
they left home, and fihey thought that the matter had
not been sufficiently canvassed to enable the people
to form an opinion on the question. who will censure
them for giving the applications temporary negative
1t is believed that very little will be lost by delay
The railroad Improvements can now be thoroughly
canvassed their respective merits can be developed the
securities which they prefer the State can be scru-
tinized, and if the State be made safe, men of all
parties will cheerfuy concur IN rendering the neces-
sary assistance. FL CLINTON

The undersigned propose to publish

ding.
1t is usual in a prospectus to say
something of the objects of a paper
proposed to be published; and the
principles upon which it is to be con.
Quoted. Our object for we will
speak out frankly, is first to make our
paper source Of profit to ourselves,
and secondly while we advance our
own interest, make an honest effort
to advance the interest and happiness
OF those who patronize us. We will
endeayor to make our paper profita-
bic and interesting to our patrons, shy
the discussion and calculation of those
subjects, which will be most interes-
ting and useful to them. These SUBJ
lecls we suppose to be those relating
TO the great agricultural interest Of
the country-the sound moral prin-
clples OF the community-in short,
The intellectual improvement of the
great body Of the people upon all sub
Jects eilecting their happiness and
prosperity. Our political principles
are those entertained by Washington
and Jefferson-in favor of strict
and Just construction Of the Constitu.

arereserved to the States or to tbe

reserved rights Of the States. IS Viz.

''N'Fi ~ 4 !. ~
OF weekly newspaper to be pub
Illshed in the city Of Vicksburg, to be
entitled the Mississippi Sentinel and
State Rights Expositor, edited and
published by Drs. Green and ITacan.
The great and growing resources
Of Mississippi, and the rapid increase
OF wealth, population and business.
seem to demand another paper in this
city.
The political character of this paper
will be indicated by its title. 1t will
advocate the great principles of State
Rights and State Remedies, and an
Inounce, from the watch-tower, every
encroachment Of the Federal Goverc.
ment on the rights Of the States and
the Liberties of the people. BY fire.
Iquent recurrence to first principles
and the doctrines taught by the franz
ers OF the Constitution, it will en-
deavor to lmpart clear views of the
federal compact, that the people may
be enabled to mark, and prepared to
resist the advances Of despotism and
corruption.
The peculiar institutions of the
South, and the present crisis, require
energy, intelligence and organization
on the part of the people. The wealth
and luxury of Rome only stimulated
the rapacity and avarice of the north
ern barbarlans. We must not only.
individually, become acquainted with
the rights and interests of the South.
but we must effect such a union Of
ieellng--such a physical organization
as will defy the bold schemes of fanat,
lclsm and the wies of treacherous
demagogues; and transmit to posteri-
ty our glorious institutions, pure as
we received them from the hands of
our forefathers.
Though there are times and circum.
stances when the laws may be dis
penseed with and summary punishment
De resorted to, yet we are convinced
that Lynch law has become quite too
common all over the country. Il has
excited a furious and sanguinary spirit
at war with civilization, and injurious
the prosperity and happiness of our
common country. 1t has in MANY
cases enabled individuals to wreak
vengeance for private griefs, at the
expense OF the peace and order Of the
commuAth and the life probably of
!he innocent. The Sentinel will I'M
