MISSISSIPPI LEGISLATURE.
SENATE.

January 20, 1888.
After the usual morning business was
disposed of, sundry Bills Of local nature
were introduced.
Mr.. tladlcy introduced Bill, limiting
the Banks of this State, relative to premi-
ums and exchange, which was read the
first time.
Mr.. Tucker introduced Bill, incorpo-
rating the Real Estate Banking Company,
Of Columbus, Lowndcs county, which was
read the first time.
The Senate, on motion, recommitted the
Bill TO appropriate the surplus revenue
to Committee Of the whole House. Mr..
AIsbury moved to strike out from the enac-
ting clause, and insert A Bill authorizing
the purchasing of negroes with the said
fund, to be employed in clearing out rivers
and other works of internal Improvement
this motion succeeded after much warm
debate. 1t was opposed by Messrs. Far
rar and Wall, and sustained by Messrs.
Alsbury and -----. On motion the Com
mittee rose and reported the Bill as amen
ded.
Mr.. Farrar called for third reading of
the Mississippi Union Bank Bill. The call
was opposed by Nessrs. Tucker, Alsbury,
Boyd, and Marshall, and sustained by
Messrs. Farrar and Wall. Mr.. Farrar
in brief manner, stated why he pressed
the call, and Mr.. Wall said that he had
heard no reason advanced from any Sena.
tor why it should be delayed, that was in
the least calculated to have any bearing
upon the mind of any unpreiudized per.
son. What are the objections, sir. The
gentleman from Lowndes says that he is
hostile to the Bill; this is no reason. sir.
for delay. The gentleman from Ke,nper.
says he feels too much fatigued to enter in
to discussion this evening. Ifthat gentle
man has wraught any harder today than
the rest OF us, it has not been percevable,
for ne has made no display of it in the
Senate. A third, the Senator from Alfalfa.
says, that he is unprepared to vote, but if
you will turn to the Journal of Yesterday.
there will be no difficulty in ascertaininr
his true sentiments; but must confess, Mr..
President, that since he gave that vote,
there has been kind Of obiquity in his
acts OF iocomotlon, which my weak cara.
city is unable to comprehend. The charter
has been upon his table for three, weeks
1t nav be, that my friend from Alfalfa, for
: whom entertain the kindest feelings, may
: Dc IN market, but sir, | am fully satisfied
, that the friends of the Union Bank will not
: be able to hold out an inducement suffi-
clcnt toobtaln his support; and sir, should
not be surprised if he has been concocting
, a speech, for two days past against it,
: would sooner believe that the object of
delay is for advantage; and say to lis
friends, let US present an undivided front,

LIBERTY ADVOCATE
LIBERrY, FEBRUARY 10, 1898.

We insert today the communication OF
Dur much esteemed correspondent, "a Ma
tionalist." However widely we may diff
fer in our views on the present occasion,
his ideas are generally so correct and ex-
pressed in style so good, that we willing
ly offer the Advocate as medium OF con-
veying them to the people. The political
character of Mr.. Calhoun is proper sub
iect for criticism, and we feel assured that
it will bear close inspection We view
Mr.. Calhoun as nothing more than great
man, and it is most true, that "great men
are not always WISE" but we think that
he has acted wisely little oitener than
any other politician ofthe day. The prim,
hive object ofthis paper, is to support the
fights of the States, and in doing this, il
must support State Rights men, and that
man is not in the land of the living, that
has done more for the advancement Of the
cause, than the magnanimous Carolinan
who has been justly styled the "honest

for delay is fraught with danger. lam
unwilling to crafty, any longer, such q
malignant hostility as has been maniles-
lea towards this Bill. And | now say 10
its enemies, that we are ready to meet
them, and discuss the merits OF this Bill,
in all its bearings and tendencies, from the
first section to the last; and ! am much
surprised, with the array Of talents, elo-
quence and strength, that there should be
shrinking from the contest.
The call was sustained, and the Bill
read the third time, but before the discus
sion commenced, the Senate adjourned un-

A NATIONALIST.

But for Mr.. Calhoun's detection at the
extra session Of Congress, it is almost GER
tain that the administration would not have
been able to carry single measure re.
commended in the message. Time will
show whether "the party" will reward
him in a manner commensurate with the
undoubtedly Important services he render
ed them. To them alone must be hence

His late abandonment Of his principles
and of those With whom he SO long acted,
had there been no other objection to HIM
is sufficient to create an impossible barrier
between him and the Whigs.--Nashul@

and contemplate SANDER contained in the
above paragraph often repeated by the
drivellers of the press, who are as inca
pable of approaching Mr.. Calhoun'o mo-
tivcs as they areIto define any principle
that we have declined singing them
out, or calling on them to prove their as
sertion. We are disposed, however, 70
nail the base coin to the counter, since we
have met responsible press disposed %

Mr.. Calhoun has abandoned his principles
by which we suppose it means that he al
vocates divorce Of Bank a. Government
Now we would like the Banner to give Us
the history of this measure, and show
when he opposed it, and the particuar,
time, the manner and the circumstance
his conversation to it. We would ask tine
Banner if he hecollects Mr.. Robertson's a.
to Mr.. Gordon's bill, which was
before the lower House of Congress 10
1857 Does he recolIect Mr.. Leighss
speech at Petersburg, Va. in the fall OF '34'
If he recollects Mr.. Robertson's amend
ment, will he DO good enough to point ou'
the difference between the principle pre-,
sented, and that of the divorce advocate,
BY Mr.. Calhoun. If the Banner shoulO
happen 10 find that they agree, as they W.
questlonaby do, we will then ask 1t 70 OK

MONDAY, Jan. 20.

In the House, today, we have passed
quite an important Bill, to-wit: the Bill
authorizing the Mississippi and Alabama
Rail Road Company to build a Rail Road
from Paulding, Jasper county, to some eli
gible point on the Gulf 1t passed by an
overwhelming majority. The consequent
ces ofthis Bill, it is to be hoped, will be
beneficial. The Importance OF erecting a
city on our sea shore, has too long esca-
ped the observation Of our legislators
The time has now arrived to step boldly
| forward in the work, and shake off our
degrading vassalage to the swndling shops
in New Orleans. Learn them that the
ignominious treatment inflicted upon our
citizens, by casting them into their infa.
nous dungeons with vagabonds and out.
casts, has not passed unnoticcd and that
the Indignation Of an Industrious and en-.
terprising people has been aroused al
their fragrant outrages--their base and
unmanly behaviour towards our best citi
zens. Let Mississippi unfurl her own ban
ner, and she will soon rank amongst the
most tiourlshing, commercial, and wealthy
States in the Union.
In the Senate, the Union Bank has pass
ed by vote of II to IL. There was
great opposition, butall was in vain. Fe
lix II. Walker, who had repeatedly pledg
ed himself to the support of this nstitn
tion--whose constituents, he confessed

We are going ahead, under the firm con-
