THE ELECTION.

The time has almost arrived, when the voters o.
Mississippi will again have the right and privilege O
selecting officers to whom they must, for the next tive
years. confide their interests. The occasion il
one Of the deepest interest. The result will ancc
the destiny of the State, for veal woe, for years yet
to come. The question of most exciting interest Is
shall We have a Sub-Trcasury controlled by men ap
pointed by the President and at all times subec tC
his removal, completely under executive control, Oh
shall we return to the good old republican plan acted
upon from the days of Washington to the advent o
Jackson; under which the people lived prosperous
aud happy" and by Il departure from which, they
have been launched into ocean of troubles, and have
been we'll nigh utterly wrcckedby the b!undcrs ofun
sMiu pilots who dsrcgardng the lights of experience
have ycnurcd in untricd channels with the ship OF
State lrcghtcd with the dearest interests of The pCo
pie Shall go back to the dark ages of barba ism
and learn political economy from the savage? Shall
VIC spurn the experience OF the past, rcpudatc hnowl
edge, and adopt the forms Of government and customs
of unciylizcd natons These questions which the
approaching election will answer. The democrats
urge the adoption Of the Colonial despotism of "thc
great and prosperous Island of Cuba" as mad for this
extended Republic. The wings prefer the policy Of
Washington and Madison The democrats scrviloly
follow the diciq of Benton and HcNutt The former Of
Chapel Hill notorctyan appropriate example ga Sub
Treasurer the latter the greatest Roac in the State
The democrats profess to desire Gold and Silver cur
rcncy nmixod, and rcpudatc all Banks The whgs
wish to return to the old republican path, and have
IA paper currency at all times rcdoemabc in Specie
In to-day paper the reader will find the votes OF
the various Banks in this Statc-rcad and Judge whcl
party made the Banks; and if you find that those whit
now pretend such anabhorcnce ofall Banks have beer
the creators Of the monsters then shun them yo,
do the hypocrite.
Remember that S. 5. Prentss and r. J. Walker arr
candidates for the u. s. Senate, aad remember tina
every vote cast for the democratic candidates for The
Legislature will be a vote against Prcntiss the gifted
Orator and tried friend Of Mississippi and in favor Of
Walker the democratic changing, the friend and foe
of Danks--thc man that has the daring mpulcncc "a
say over his own signature that he meant Sub Urea
sury when he said Bank in his letter to Judge Black
in 1884 Remember that A G. McNutt the anti.BanS
candidate for Governor voted for more Banks than any
other man in the State. Remember that Bank Char
ter never was lost in the Legislature until tho wings
obtaineda majority in that body-and then act the
part of frccmcn and we not but Monday AMI Tues
day next will tell tale over which the Santcd Spirits
of the Wings of the Revolution will rejoice, it, indeed
the success of the principles for which they yielded
their lives willing sacrifice add to the bliss Of
those climos to which they have been translated. In
the name of our common country, VIC say let every
wing do his duty.
