Wing Meeting.

In accordance with notice previously
given. the wing members of the Legislature
and citizens assembled in the Representa-
tive Hall on Tuesday evening, February /,
1910, at 7 &C lock.
On tic motion of Mr.. Farrar, of Wilkinson
county.
The Hon. JOHN /. GU1oN, of Warren coun-
ty, was called to the chair, and
On motion of Mr.. Cox, of Washington
county,
Mr.. ]. M. Downs was appointed Secretary.
Judge Guion then addressed the meeting
and explained the object, when
Mr.. Farrar, of Wilkinson county, introduce
ed the following resolutions which were
adopted
WHEREAS, a numerous delegation from
all parts of the Union of that portion of the
people of the United States who are opposed
10 what they consider the alarming; adj
vance of the administration towards tyranny
and despotism, to the ruinous measures and
profigate corruption which clogs all the
channels of government, and threatens the
safety Of our political liberties, have, after
mature deliberation, recommended to the
support Of the people for election to the
Offices of President and Vice President OF
the United States, WILLIAM HENRY
HARRISON, Of Ohio, and JOHN TYLER,
of Virginia; and whereas we believe that
the reelection of Martin Van Buren, would
fix upon the country the grinding evils
which the disastrous measures and corrupt
practices of the administration for some
years past has produced; and whereas we
believe that the eminent abilities, high mo-
raj worth and unsupported integrity which
has marked the life of Gen. Harrison thro'
Ia long career of public services, peculiarly
fit him to reform the existing abuses and
restore the government to its original repub-
lican purity; and whereas the decided and

Creditors have a lien upon the very air breath.
ed by the insolVent debtor, his body is liable
ID seizure and imprisonment, and the very
existence of such an individual is rendered
burdensome by this worsaOf curses. There
'is no justice il the way debts are now col
lected. Thedeb:or is sued, although certain
ly insOEUent, heavy bills of cost incurred, and
there is a scramble among the lawyers who
shall obtain the first judgment in order to
save their clientsj what property there is
belonging to the debtor is sold off at sac
rifce, and ''the d take the hindmost,"
for he gets nothing. Perhaps the debtor has
friends who have INDUCED and assisted him.
These are sufferers, and the more voracious
creditors reap all the advantages of the leni-
ty shewn by the rest. Such law would
save to creditors immense sums By causing
an equal distribution Of the effects of insol.
vent debtors, and set free many an honest
man who is now broken-hearted, and incas
pable of even making an effort.

Commercial Bank.

In our remarks last week, relative to the
suspension by this bank, we did her injustice.
The article to which we allude, was written
at the moment of excitement, and asst is not
our wish to injure the character or standing
of any institution, we deem it it but justice
to make this statement, and we now feel
well assured that there is nothing ''rotten in
Denmark"
The bank it appears, in suspending as
we stated, has but accepted the glorious
privileges extended to all our banks by our
Legislature.
Papers who have copied the article alluded
to will please copy the above.

General Bankrupt Law.


We publish to-day the outlines of law
proposed in the senate the United States
by Mr.. Webster, and notice that it was advo-
Gated by Mr.. Buchanan and several distin-
guished members of the Democratic party
1t is measure that both parties will doubt
less support, and we hope will soon become
a law. Of all the msfortunes that can befal
member of society, perhaps none is pro-
ductive of more agony to an honest indepen-
dent mind, than that ofhopeless insolvency;
and perhaps it is. the only evil among man.
kind which does not excite some sympathy
for the unfortunate, from his fellow men,
Like the shame which ''erring sisters bring
upon themselves, the insolvent debtor can
not claim thought from the prosperous, but
sinks under the weight which bears him
down, and too often becomes dead to all the
world except his own misery. Poverty is
nothing for there are degrees in poverty, and
there is hope to cheer the poor man on in his
tolls to better his condition, but when an
unfortunate. debtor has given up all his pos
sessions, and still finds that unpaid thousands
bear him down, what incentive can he have
to exertion? He sees that with lifetime OF
labor he cannot pay his debts, and every little
pittance which he saves is seized upon and
his family left to suffer. Why did not our
legislature, in the plenitude oftheir will e'to
relieve the state,'' recommend our members
in congress to advocate and urge the passage
OF this law? The people of Mississippi, by
Legislative enactments, have been converted
into community Of spectators, to great
extent; the state, by the introduction of for
eign capital, was made perfect paradise,
the people BY tasting the forbidden fruit pla-
ced their midsthave sinned, and now must
be expelled from their once happy Eden
Thousands of our once happy citizens have
been forced to leave their homes and find a
dwelling place in the wilds of Texas, where
they hide themselves from the curses of cred
itors; and now that this evil has beenbrought
upon US, we must be called s'reckless spec
ulators, = dishonest and insolvent.'' The
state, il is said, has no power to pass an act
for the relief Of insolvent debtors; then we
must look 70 Congress, where the power prop
erly belongs.-The very spirit Of free gov.
eminent requires that its citizens should moi
be enslaved, and what worse slavery is there
than that which we have attempted 10 lepictl

THE MOVEMENTS.

The progress of the Wing cause is onward.
Every mail brings some fresh indication of
our approaching triumph. Harrison appears
to be carrying the West by acclamation.
The last intelligence announces the crafty
ing fact, that one of the leading Van Buren,
journals in Ohio, the Constitutionalst, pub
lished at Columbus, has hosted the Banner
of Old Tippecanoe. The voice of that State
will be loud and strong. There the charac-
ter of the General is well known, and his
services appreciated. The falsehoods and
foul libels that are so current here, could
not be promulgated there without meeting
the froWns and the rebukes Of an indignant
public. Thousands of witnesses would rise
up on the spot, ready to contradict them.
No wonder that his popularity is unbound
ed, when the real merits of the old veteran
are taken into consideration. It only wants
a knowledge Of his history, to spread that
popularity into every corner Of the United
States. The efforts of the press have alrea-
dy done much towards this object, and we
witness the effect in the enthusiasm that is
every where getting up in favor of the Vic
tor of the Thames. No doubt the blunders
and malVersations ofthe party IN power have
helped to open the eyes ofthe people. True
excelency shines brightest in contrast, and
the mediocre and unsigaGIi<ed career of Mar
tin Van Buren,, serves admirably as fol to
set off the sterling worth and brilliant achiev-
ments Of the wing candidate. Under the
circumstances, the triumphs Of the cause are
not TO be wondered at; the only matter of
surprise is, that the reformation in public
opinion has not been more rapid and instan-
taneous. The change, however, has been
speedy as the most sanguine had anticipa-
ted.
The movements going on in favor Of Har-
rison are very handsomely expressed ~ the

regiments and brigades-now, under The
banner on which his name is inscribed, coun.

prolonged shouts Of the people, marshalling
under the veteran chieftain, come upon eve
~ gale, from every quarter-and the din and
roar of millions of cheers, sent up all over
the land, outswell the loudest thunder. ~
Seldom has there been displayed for any
man the enthusiasm that is now eyinced
every where. Meetings are held in every
county, every city, every state-and an OPP

Cincinnatus Of the west, as their only deli

DEAR SIR:--I very cheerfuily add my testimony
with regard TO the efficacy Of DR.. Peters medicines
Nv wife had been for several years suffering anG
lingering under the effects of dyspepsia, with its
usual Accomplishments, when, in December, 1888,
purchased Of you one box--from the use OF which,
her health was far restored that she deemed the
further use OF it at that time unnecessary. On
return of some symptoms of the disease during the
summer of 1897, she resorted To the same remedy,
and continued it until she bad taken the contents
of three boxes Since that time she has been well,
and can, without Inconvenience, eat any thing that
she fancies.
From this case. and from the benefit TO my own
health, derived from the Of single box, am
prepared to believe that this medicine Is justly ent
titled to al the credit claimed for it by its walmes.
advocates. Yours, very respectfully,
WM' WATKINS.
