State rights and democratic union. (Yazoo City, Miss.) 1839-18??, 1839-11-27

Each and every Democratic paper we
pick up, presents to its readers congra'uiation
upon congratulations as to the result Oh our
late electon.-and we'll may these congratu-
lations be given. The Democratic party OF
this state has carried all before 1t; ave. the
Democrats of the valley of the MISSISSIPPI
like The food Of its mighty river, bearing
the drift from the mountains onward 70 tue
seaA have. forced their competitors the
Wings. onward, onward, until they are lost
!, the dark, fatbomless ocean Of Federalism.
We SCARCELY entertained hope that Nllssls'
siopi would be numbered among the Demo
cratic States; but, she is entitled to the
BRIGHTEST star amid the galaxy that waves
nroudlv to the breeze! The Democrats Of
the North and West have lesked toward our
State as the keystone of the South,-they
have placed every reliance on the patriotism
of Mississippians,-they have ever regarded
her CONS as the chiyalic descendants of the
fathers Of liberty,-and have they been de-
ceived2 No! When our services were
needed to preserve our loved country, we
have stepped boldly forward TO the contest,
and battled with the StlSng.-We have gam
ed victory that will be forever signaized in
the annals of American history, and handed
down from sire to son, side by side, one and
the same in principle, with the memorable
contest between the elder ADAMS and lHo'
MAS JEFFERSON! Democracy has once more
triumphed over federalism!
ssThe sun hath made golden set, &c.
We call the attention of the citizens OF
Yazao county to the communication IN
to.day's paper over the signature of ''Yazoo.'
It. we believe, utters the wishes of all "h0
will consider its contents, and will appreciate
the beneficial object suggested. The SUBJECT
j. mi one of recent date or desi gned for
nriyate ends; but it has agitated the minds oil
this community long previous to the erection
Of the new courthouse at Benton. The oil.
ference in favor of the two places has no
comparison this will seem obvious at
frs, sieht.-Benton is now at the Vely top oil
lis prosperity and magnitude-Yazoo City IS
furnishing in all possible success-increasing
her citizens with each coming year, ana is
rsoarded az no inconsiderable place by East
.rn and Southern merchants. Again: we
dauht &c the mass of the county would not
find it equally as convenient under every re.
snect to attend the courts in the clty-"hilo
others. whose propinquity TO Benton shouio
recollect, that as planters, they are lor tue
most part called to the city about the time OIL
court. The comforts of this place nolo ou'
addltiotai inducement.
Weare authorized in saying that an entire
aouare of ground will be donated TOT It's
erection, by gentleman of the city; "hicn
will greatly diminish the expenditure Of lis
removal. We have been advised, too, thai
this place was acknowledgement as the sea-
of ;nst,ce for Yazoo; but the good intention
of the first settlers was frustrated by the all
absorbing avarice ofts original proprietary.
We hope this subject will have ITS due con-
side,e,ion.-and accrediting this belief, We
suggest the propfiety of calling public
meeting sometime during the winter
We would be pleased to lay before our
readers furthur official returns from the oil
fe-ent counties not heretofore quoted by US;
blu, as the prints on both sides are SO quiet;
and Whiggery so exhausted with her loud
rafting aud braggadocia, we must conclude
r
that Democracy is again fer tae i've hun
dtedth time, triumphant! However, know
;np one.-and distant relative OF WhIsgery,
writes Us, tnat Mississippi has undoubtedly
gone the wrong -way! Bless Us! j. e. she has
elected McNutt and cabinet,-and. most her
r,bls of all, that Messrs. Brown and Thomp-
son were actually preparing to set out for
Washington in order to aid n The election
Of Democrats speaker to the House Of
REPRESENTATIVES. This is pitiable; for if
Whlgvery should get held of the Tennessee
BrLL. They would keep such hillabollu, as
to deafen the whole Union By their ding.

We feel elafed at the manly, bold and re-
solu.e instructions ofihe Legislature Of Ten
