For IRE Demornf

MrssRs. EplroRs. the last number Of the
Argus there nre some queries propounded by an
individual. who signs himself Lowndes," ques-
lioning the legality of tho appointment Of Samuel
r. Butterworlh Esq. to Gil the Office of U. 5.
District Attorney for the Northern District Of
MississippI, owing to his having challenged ano-
Their person to fight duel contrary TO the laws OF
The State ; which disqualfy an individual (alier
being found gully Of such an oiience) to hold
any Office Of honor or profit, civil " military, under
The government Of hySiait. And after trying
to fret himself into pei about the indlgulty Of

poinimeni, pours out The rilas Of his trrGih on
Judge Trotto1, as being accessory to this great
indignity offered the people Of Mississippi -

Of removing, u possible, a portion Of the pro.
io"c ignorance IN which he appears 10 be in
y3yed as to tho laws and constitution of tho U.
States, and Of one great and fundamental prirci-
pie Of law, recognized by all civilized nalions.--
In the first place, touching the laws Of The United
States under which Mr.. Buiierworh received his
appointment, the laws Of this or any other State
that are not expressly recognized by acts of
Congress TO that effect, are not valid in the courts
OF the United States. You will find no act of
Congress dsqualiiying gentleman who has spi-
III and independence enough to seek redress
when injured, from holding Office under the Gen.
eral Government. In tho second place, that
great principle that alluded to is, that all men
are innocent in tho eye Of the law, until found
guilty by the courts Of tho country. Did you not
know that Mr.. Buuerworh was not yet tried for
his offence by the courts Of this State Admit.
ling that such law was recognized by Congress,
was Judge Trotier to pronounce him disqualified
because he was accused, but not found guilty

To our distant Patrons,

We have addressed circular letters to all Of our
distant subscribers who are in arrears TO u.s. request
ng them to forward the sums due by mail, at our
risk. This course we are compelled to adopt as it
is impossible Tor us to employ collector. The sums
due are trAing to them individually, but in the ag-
gregate they amount TO something considerable, and
constitute large portion of our hard earned wages.
The expenses ola printing establishment are SO great
and constantly occurring-cash payments being re-
quired for every thng-as to render punctuality on
the part of its patrons indspensaby necessary; no
newspaper can be probably conducted without it.
We trust therefore that the letters which we have
addressed to our distant subscribers will be promptly
attended to, and that The appeal TO their justice and
honor will not be made in vain
