MEssRs. EDIToRs:
AS citizen of Mississippi, am in
dignant at the foul abuse, many of our CT
items are guilty of towards many young
men, who come from other states or coun-
tries, to brighten our mental horizon by
their learning and talent. We should en-
courage, by every means, which the great
resources of the state throw in our hands,
the emigration of the talented and virtu-
GUS to the genial cline of the "Tfopic
Border" and when they have bid adieu to
home to devote themselves to us, we ought
to foster ond protect them with the solicit
tude of paternal affection. This, our ho-
nor, as highminded people, impcriously
demands. Moved by this principle, were
the citizens of Amite, when they encour-
aged, forsooth, solicited yourselves to es-
tablish the Piney Woods PIanter,to breath
the true spirit of Democracy, diffuse the
genial rays ofscience, and propagate the
principles of love and union through al!
ranks of the people of our common coun-
try. A noble motive this Fad worthy n
thrice virtuous age. Butwhat must have
been the feelings of those, your honored
patrons, when they learned from the pen
of j. Graves, that they were hugging a
viper to their bosoms-that you harbored
principles, destruction to their domestic
institutions, and indirectly subyersive of
the liberty of wide spreading and nigh
ty empire.
This he boldly asserted, he could prove
by your warmest friend. At this unequi-
vocal assertion, your patrons, and the pub
lie generally, were filled with anxiety
and alarm. They paused, however, mo-
ment, to see how this charge, which, if
true, must sink you to the lowest depths
of infamy, would be met by you--to sec
if any, what response would be made
But, gentlemen, this pause was like that
of the lion, to gather strength to act with

The Senate has confirmed the nomina-
tion Of J. X. PAULDINe. This must give
pleasure to all; as Paulding rises on his
talents and merits which have gained him
a high place in the esteem of the enlight-
cned ofaIl parties in this country, on this
subject the Sun says:
We briefly noticed yesterday the
appointment and Confirmation of James
X. Paulding to the Secretaryship of
the Navy. 1t is an appointment, how.
ever, which we cannot pass over with
out an expression ofapprobation. Mr..
Paulding is very widely known as the
author of books purely American, high
ly useful in their tendency, popular in
their style, and marked by genius.
unobrusivc as a man, and consequent
ly nor so much before the public as 81,
James X. Paulding," it is not so gen.
orally known that he brings to this
office much experience in its details,
acquired while Navy Agent for this
city, and, subsequently, as Secretary
Of the Navy Board. From his youth
Up, he has held financial opinions repu-
ed to be the creed of the White House.
With his talents, and practical know
edge, he will make one of the best
who has ever held office
nder any administration. Such APP
ointments as those of Pauldiding to
he Secretaryship, of the Navy, and
bancroft to the Collectorship OF Bos-
IN, do honor to the administration and d
} the country. t

CIRCULAR.
To all the Collectors and Receivers OF
Public Money:

Treasury Department, June /, 1888.
BY resolution, passed the 3lst ultimo,
Congress has declared, "T'hat it shall not
be lawful for the Secretary of the Treasu-
ry to make or continue in force, any gen
eral order; which shall create any differ
ence between the different branches of
the revenue, as the money or medium of
payment in which debts or dues, accruing
to the United States, may be paid"
To carry this resolution into effect, it
has become necessary to issue new in
structions to Collectors and Receivers of
Public Money.
BY the present laws, specie and Treasu-
ry notes alone are expressly made receiv-
able for all kinds of public dues, and you
will, Of course, continue to take them till

The whole-the real merits of the cur.
rency question that is SO much agitatng
the country at the present time, is en-
braced in these interrogatories: How
much specie is now in the country? Has
not the policy of the Administration been,
since 1929, to introduce specie into the
country Has not the opposition tried, !
by every means in its power, to drive id
out?

= ferson to the Chief Magistracy of the Uni
e on, to predict its defeat and final overthrow
$ at each successive presidential election
n During the first four years of Madison's ad
: ministration they saw with prophetic Ger
8 tainty, that he would DO Ceposed from thu
presidential chair before the expiration o
, his term. But 10! he was suffered to con
) tinue in office the full term, and then re
elected! With the same acuteness ant
: foresight they told the world that Andrew
Jackson, the republican candidate in 1928
could not be elected, or when he vetoed
the United States Bank on the very eve
of the election in 1882, they declared that
that act had struck n death blow to that
party with which he was identified Was
this sol History tells how false were their
divinations, when it records that Andrew
Jackson, rcviIed and prosecuted by the
Bank minions, heard Maine give the glad
dening shout of swell done thou good and
faithful servant" which was echoed back
from Louisiana, and reverberated from ev-
cry hamlet in the valley of the Mississippi.
What were they now to say to strengthen
the faith of their blind believers2 Why,
they told them that Gen. Jackson's fame
as q military chieftain, had upheld him a
midst the sea of inequity, in which he
"wantoned"-that the people were ever
disposed to be dazzled and captivated by
the glare of military achievements. An
inequitous Senate passed condemnation
against him for having violated the Con
stitution of his country, declaring that pos
tcrity would fix the seal of approval to the
act. Soon were they made to revoke this
sentence, and o miserable risie, they be-
held the Democracy of the Union ayeng-
ing the outrage by electing Martin Van
Buren,, man who had promised to follow
in the footsteps of Gen. jackson, to the
Presidency, by majority over both his
competitors. And after all this bad luck
at prophesying, they still venture to pre-
dict the issue of coming events. We are
very GRAVES-ly told that the Van Buren,
dynasty is at an end. We have heard this
before, and needed it not. Rallying I'M
Ter the standard of democracy, the friends
Of Republican Institutions, have CALAMITY
the principles for which we con-
lend, through too many long fought and
hard contested battles for us to falter or
olench now. Too often has Democracy
over Federalism for us to dis
pair at this time. Once already, with Van
Buren, at our head, we have met the enc
ny and conquered, and why not again9-
mil disperandum Tenero duce ct auspice
Tenero." The United States Bank, the
asst Hydra headed monster of federalism,
s almost destroyed. The distress which
it now infiicts upon the people is the con-
sequence of its expiring convulsiye strug-
giles, as Briareus like, it encircles every
thing in its hundred hands. But soon will
the conflict be over, and the democracy
will be free, will triumph. 1t must be so,
its principles are not destined to fail, but
must continue to go on with success, con
quering and to conquer.
