says: "Now, sit will be seen" that last
year the federal wings had ID MAJoRIry!
in the House of Delegates, the WHOLE
SENATE!! and majority on joint ballot
Of 29!!! and that at present, giving them
all they claim they have majority Of foe
in the House, off two in the Senate, and Of
sepen on joint ballot! But, giving them all
they may have some shoto of claim for
they will have but ma ority of one in the
House, and that we shall have the same
majority in the Senate, and on joint ballot
there will be tie,--drgel, sit will be seen
that the triumph ofthe wings is complete
Aside from all this, however, VIC have moi
the least doubt, that the event will show
that the gain for the Democratic party in

victims to the ruthless "King ofTerrors."
We are unable to record the precise time,
or the mime of the disease which "laid

they snufcd in the breeze, the epidemic
which has lately visited their brethren in
Maine, Alabama, Illinois and Missouri
with such bitter effects" So says the
Mississippian. "Sc transit gloria mund.'

For the Planter.


Messrs. TornILt s. HALL:
One of the "all-decency party" from
Liberty, has been up this way and bruited
it about that at our Democratic Meeting,
held in Liberty, on the 18th ult., there
was no one of our party who resided in
the county qualified to address the meet
ing, and before we could have q speech
we had to implore the aid of Mr.. Posey, oil
Wilkinson. Now, sir, you will please re-
quest Mr.. Ramsey to write out the ad.
dress he delivered on that occasion, fol
publication in the Planter, in order tc
show how utterly false is this statement
and that the Democrats may know tina,
they have those among them who are fully
competent and willing to stand up fl
their interests. Furthermore, for the sat
isfaction Of any who are chuckling Owe
the idea that we have to import men fror
Wilkinson to set forth the claims of oul
party, will promise to meet any one o
