and Chickasa;s.lha valleys like the mighty stream
ola resistess current, sweeping over the land ane
tearing away the last ves,igs Of aoo'!''onsm' "a
rfIism, and bankism, which still fingers W.lhn 'h'
limits Of our great cotton state. This will be the
rallying cry and battle shout of every native ant
adopted sou,hron at the April polls. They will re
echo their strong voice, and that voice will BE-
waited on every breeze, over hill and dale, an'
proclaim ON the Odd and oath Of next month, III,
high resolve of lreemen, aad their mistaken con
6dence in tho ardent patriotism and unbendni
integrity of Mississippl's tavorlte sons John r
| ii. CLAIBORNE and JAMES DAVIS.
