Observation-Disclosures

Presidential election if they will organize.
We lost the late election because our sent
ments were not fully known in remote
neighborhoods, and we cannot make our
sentiments known and our position fully
seen, until we organize our party. We have
a drilled and disciplined soldiery to contend
with, and we cannot compute with them I'M
til we are somewhat disciplined too. They
will continue to misrepresent us-they will
continue TO chargesus with faVoriDg, what We
have ever opposed, the present State Bank
system Of shinplaster deprecated currency;
they will continue to swear, in the face Of
the truth, that we are the authors and sup
porters of all the broken banks: they will
continue to call US federalists; they will
hide and misrepresent the character and fea-
lures of their great Federal Sub-Treasury
Bank; they will misrepresent our candidate
in thousand ways; they will belle and vile
lify Ourpress and SANDER our doctrines, and
we cannot fairly and successfully meet these
ten thousand and ono SANDERS and misre-
presentations until we organize our party
and meet our enemy on an equal footing.
If We want to be again beaten let US re-
main IS we are-if we want to give Gen
eral Harrison the electoral vote of the state
let US organize. This is the way we have
succeeded elsewhere, and without this vigi-
lent enterprise we have not succeeded in a
single state. We have majority in Mis-
sissippi but we cannot count it unless we
get it to the polls
We have talked about this matter long
enough; il is time now for action. Then
let us begin forthwith. Letus up and be
doing, for the election is even now fast ap-
preaching.
A writer in most of the wing papers in
the state, last spring, upon this subject sug-
gested the particulars of plan of organiza-
ton, which, SO far as we said, was univer-
sally approved by the press and our friends
throughout the state. And as his sugges-
tons fully meets our appreciation, and as we
think it is easy of accomplishment and will
be universally acquiesed in, we repeat them
First, Let us not follow the example Of
our opponents by working behind the scene,
in the dark. But let us act openly, in the
face of daylight. Let US shew to friends
and enemies our plan of operation, and let
all our doings be open and plain before the
face of the people and the world
Second, Let the wing members of the
Legislature be requested to hold meeting
and appoint Central Committee of cores
pondence and Vigilence, and do whatever
else may seem best calculated to carry for
ward this grand enterprise.
Third, Let every county in the state
hold whig meeting, without delay, and APP
point two committees;-one Of corespon-
dence to keep up constant intercourse
with each other and with the Central Com
mittee, and a committee of elections to con-
sist of two OF three persons to each election
precinct, whose duty it will be to know eve-
nv voter of the same, to see that newspaperSl
and documents are thoroughly distributed,
that the poll is opened and that the greatest
possible number Of legal, and the least pos
sible number of illegal votes, be given.
This is the outline, the filing up can be
done when county meeting comes 10 deli
befate.
WILL YAZOO TAKE THE LEAD?
Let there be meeting without delay.
Let the beginning be made and let our
corresponding committee forthwith cores
pond with some three or four influential
wings in each county in the state. Let the
plan Of operation be the same every where,
that We may all harmonise in action. Let
these things be done, and done immediate
~, and the state is ours.
We have now fairly entered the contest.
One Presidential candidate Is agreed upon,
and The agreement il harmonious and con-
gratuia h every where. No sectional OBJ
iections can be urged against Gen. Harrison.
He is wing good and true. He is States
man, Of the first order Of talents. He is |
bold and fearless Opposor Of Executive usur-
PATTON Of any kind ola Government Bank
AboIitionism, and Of all kinds Of
Federalism under whatsoever garb or colour
or pretence it may be advocated. The Ma
tional Wing Convention acquiesced aBaDi-
