the charter OF the Bank was not passed in
constitutional manner, and therefore the pur-
chasers OF the bonds can have no right to claim
payment OF the State, because they ought to
have detected the unconstitutionality of the
charter This reasoning requires of foreign

papers, than our own citizens more even
tnan all the executive, legislative, and finan-

INTO the market, to pay Internationally equi-

Mr.. P. w. Tompkins, candidate for repre-
sentative from Warren, having lately been
called on for an expression of his views on the
veto, in his reply, says:
"Gen. Harrison who was the peoples cand-
date for President, in speaking of National
Bank, said he did not doubt the constitutional
power of Congress to establish bank. In
his Dayton speech, previous to the late cleo
ton, he said if there were clear manifestations
of public sentiment in favor of bank, he
would approve bill to charter one. Mr.. Ty-
Ter whom the people never expected to use, in
any other way than to sit and preserve order
in the Senate, said in his letter to the Henrico
committee that he approved of every senti-
ment expressed by General Harrison, ; in his
Dayton speech."-CREoLE.

and the Judge closed with one of 80 minutes,
The powerful mordlinfuence ofJudge Shat
tuck was remarkably perceptible on this oc-
casIon He spoke, not as partisan, aiming
10 please crowd or to catch votes, but as a
man responsible to higher power even for
his words and his very thoughts His speech
made lasting impression.
AS to Gen. Foote'S speech, and the rejoin-
der OF the Judge, they were both pretty spi-
cy. The General, we think, was rather wor-
RED than otherwise with the retorts he ELECTED.
IL was the first time we ever witnessed any
man gain victory over Gen. Foote in stump
speaking. Judge Shattuck foored him deci-
dedly--All, however, passed off in good hu-

Tuesday last was the time appointed by
the candidates for Governor to address the
citizens of this county upon the deep and alb
sorbing questions of State policy Mr. Tucker,
the Locofoco candidate, did not fulfil his ap-
Pointment, owing, it is said, to some couStitu-
tional infrmity. But Judge Shattuck appear
ed in the fulness of his strength, armed in the
cause of truth and justice. Col. Bingaman
was with him, ever willing and able de-
fender of Wing principles. The Anti-Bond
party, were not without champion, in the
vertable person of Gen. Foote. According to
previous arrangement Col. Bingaman opened
the discussion, Gen. Foote succeeded, Judge
Shattuck replied, and Gen. Foote concluded.
The address of Col. Bingaman was manly,
classic and eloquent one, which called forth
repeated rounds of applause His speech was
admirable throughout, and won alike upon the
judgment and hearts of his hearers. General
Foote, although a gentleman of reading and
garrulity, made, as we honestly conceive a
weak and impoverished argument, wild and
incoherent effort We regretted exceedingly
that Old Tallabola was not here to fight his
own battle, and have saved his old friend from
that utter modification and defeat which it
was too evident he experienced in the search
ing and powerful argument of Judge Shattuck.

reputation which he has established as an ora
tor and statesman. He spoke for about two
hours on the Bond question, and certainly it
was one of the most perspicuous and logical
arguments it has ever fallen to our lot to hear.
Plain, but bold in debate, unassuming, yet en-
ergetic in manner, simple, but powerful in the
mode of his reasoning, he enchanted and riv-
eted the attention or large aud crowded sssa-
dience. He addressed himself chiefly to the
understanding, for his object was to convince
and enlighten his hearers.
Such speeches from such man must add
greatly to our strength. Wherever he travels
he will enlighten; and wherever he enlightens
he must enlist the honest in our cause. The
Wings have nothing TO fear-their triumph is
secure. The honest and patriotic will flock
around our standard-upon whose topmost
streamer is embazened the motto of the
Wings" The Faith of the State must be
preserved. "-Southron.

THE GAME OF BRAG.

1t is the uniform practice of the locofoco
party, when it is badly beaten, to shout loud
est. Bragg BRAall BRAG!ll seems to be the
motto, and every editor and orator of the par
ty shouts at the top of his voice. Last fall,
when every sensible man in the Union knew
that Van Buren, was gone in spite of fate, the
party shouted louder than ever They para
ded long lists pretended changes, and swore
that the people were discussed with hard CT
der and log cabin mummeries, and that they
were abandoning the wing party in scores
In this State they crowed Justify and claimed
the electoral vote for Van Buren, by nearly s.
600 majority! The result in November midi
Gated the amount of confidence to be placed
in their statements. Nineteen of the twenty
six States voted for Harrison, and here in
Mississippi where they were to give Van Bu-
rem the electoral vote by 50O0 it was given
to Harrison by $500 majority The same
game is now playing, and Drag is the world.
Their papers are parading letters from various
parts of the state representing the onward
march of anti-bondism. In Warren county
we hear nothing but what is doing in the East.
In the East our friends write US, that are lit
orally overrun with GLORIOUS news from old
Warren 'the Wing Banner County going
for the anti bondersP'
Poor fools they expect to frighten the wings
from their duty by Dragging. We are lit
tie too smart for that, we understand their
system of tactics--we know that they rely
upon noise, clamor and deception, and not
upon their strength. We warn our friends to
pay no attention of their vain and idle boasting.
1t is the last struggle of a degraded and bro
ken down faction-they think to make CAPT
tai by boasting of what they can do. They
knoo0 that certain and inevitable defeat is star
ing them in the face, and the only hope of
keeping their followers in the ranks is by in
cessant Dragging. We have them down now,
and we shall keep them so in spite of all their
boasting. 1t is only necessary for the wings
to stand TO their arms, to march to the polls
in unbroken columns, and anti-bondsm will
be killed as dead as locofocoism was killed
last November. We may then bury both in
one grave-and they will sleep the sleep that
knows no waking Vicks. Wig.

TO PAY OR NOT TO PAY AN HONEST
DEBT; THAT is THE BOND QUESTION:

Before we say aught else, we wish to dis
claim all intention of stigmatizing the entire
opposition party in Mississippi as anti-bond-
PAYERS We do not regard the efforts that
are now being made throughout the State, to
obtain an expression of the popular will a.
gainst the payment$of the Union Bank bonds,
as sanctioned by the great body of our politi-
cal opponents. and we will not do to them
the injustice of making such charge against
them. 1t is the "McNuttites," and the "Tuck-
critics." and the "Gwinites,' ct i'd gems onne,
and not the opposition party, who are seeking
to cast stain so foul upon the fair escutcheon
of our noble State.
We have listened frequently, and patiently,
and attentively, 10 the speeches and converse
tons of the anti-bond-payers; but never yet
have we heard single argument advanced by
any or all of them, which, in our humble esti-
nation, went to prove that the State could
honora6ly refuse to pay the bonds of the I'm
ion Bank 1t does seem to us that the public
discussion of this subject has been carried on,
by those who deny the liability of the State,
upon wrong principles. They have conduct
ed it as though they were defending the State
of Mississippi in a Magistrates Court, in a
three dollar case where stong Suspicion of
debt appeared against it, and they were en-
deavoring to "get it Off by means of some
exceeding small quibble. That the State
aye! the State-did receive the money arising
from the sale of the bonds, is not questioned.
That she has not even paid the interest on il
the letters of Hope 81 Go. and Mr. Dunlap
would abundantly testify, although we had.no
other evidence of the fact. That she ought TO
pay 1t, seems, therefore, a proposition too
PLAIN tor any man, who has the slightest re-
gard Tor the honor of his State, to question.

Our cause is going ahead. Judge Shattuck
is performing wonders wherever he goes
Anti Bondism squats and lodges before his
plain unsophisticated arguments All the peo-
pie want is correct information on the subject,
and the Judge gives it 10 them in such plain,
straightforward, unvarnished way, that they
are compelled to give in. The great bug-bear
about taxation, taxation, which had been
preached by Mr.. Freeman tosthe honest yeo-
many of the eastern counties had alarmed
them while; but our candidate has since
been among them-the fog and smoke has
cleared away-the atmosphere is purified
the skies are bright A plain matter has been
laid before the people in plain way, without
|mystiication, and they NOV say, almost with
one voice, if that is what you mean by being
a bond-payer we are with you.
Our plain. honest, democratic candidate, d.
O.. Shattuck, is gaining laures as well as
friends wherever he goes. His straight-for-
ward manner and honest face is an index to
his heart. The people believe in him and will
lplace him in the gubernatorial chair next No.
lyember by majority of at least 1000 votes.
Mark the predictions Southron.
