We cal. the attention ofthe planters to the
different circulars issued from the press at
New Orleans, and sent by the Commission
Merchants and Cotton Factors of that city to
all sections of this State; the which contain
fair promise of lemedying the excess of
evils and impositions heretofore connected
with the disposal of cotton for foreign mar
kets. Let the Commission Merchant or A.
gent to whom is confded the transaction Of
the planters business, be but ruled by hon.
esty and integrity instead of pettifogging in
duplicity and casting blame on the rules and
regulations now enforced by the Chamber Of
Commerce, and at the ensuing cotton season
the planters will be more fairly and Justly
dealt with, and consequently more favora-

Jacob Thompson and the state Bonds.

candidates for Congress, absolutely refused

Legislative Candida4es.

Several unsuccessful efforts have been
made by us to enforce upon the good sense
of the wings of Yazoo county the actual ne
cessity of their holding meeting for the pur-
pose of unanimity in the nomination and sup.
port of candidates to represent the county at
the ensuing session of the State Legislature.
It will be recollected that at public meeting
held during the late term of Court at Benton,
a committee was appointed to report two
such persons as it should deem most suitable
and competent to stand forth the candidates
of the whg party at the next election. The
committee have failed to make such report
owing probably to the negligence on the par
Ofthe wings as body, in not forming them
selves into regular meeting. There have
been placed before the people the names 0
some FIVE or six individuals as candidate
without any withdrawal. Now, we would
respectfully advise these gentlemen TO NEE
together and decide among themselves, il
whatever manner they might deem proper
upon such two Of their number as shall soil
cit the votes of the wing party, the other

our opinion, at this late period to ensure sue

shall feel tito be duty incumbent on US I

EIectiOneering in Marshall.

We learn from the Holly Springs Conser-
vative Of the 4th ult., that on the first day
of the setting of the Circuit Court at that
place, political discussion took place be-
tween Messrs. HARLEY (whig) and THoMP-
SON (Ioco) two of the candidates for Congress.
They had fair chance at the people and
displayed each his claims upon their sufF-
RACES in his own way Mr.. Harley made
one speech and Thompson two. The latter
gentleman, the Conservative says, confined
his remarks to a review of the political char
acters of the members of the Cabinet-wa
generally very seVere and abusive.
Mr.. Harley made most powerful an,
sensible speech, showing great strength o
mind and much sound talents. We thinl
our northern man quite equal to the task h
has undertaken.
Mr.. Thompson, in addition to his abus
Of. the Cabinet, undertook to show most clear
| ~ and beyond the possibility of dispute G
the least shadow of doubt, that the result {
the last presidential election was no evidenc
whatever of the will Of the people in fave
Of whig principles! Harrison was electe
it was true, but then he was imposed upo
the people against their will and the whol
election was mere sham,-a mere freak
fancy or taste!
