This gentlemen who is candidate for
Secretary of State, is winning golden opin-
IONS wherever he goes. TO US here in Yazoo
he has been long known. In his boyhood
days, before the town of Yazoo City was
called into existence, Mr.. Galloway was a
citizen of Yazoo, and resided for many year.

Have at length a candidate for the Senate
from this Senatorial District. lie is no more
nor no Tess than Col. DAVID NJ. FULTON, Of
Madison county. Now, we very naturally
suppose, that few if any of our readers know
any thing Of this god-send of candidate.
Suddenly, without warning, without pomp
and parade of greatness-unhelald unan-
nounced, this repudator of the plighted faith
Of his State like frey comet amidst quiet
stars blazes upon the world as a candidate
for a seat in the Senate. Who is he? What
IS he! are inquiries made of Us at every
corner. In word we will tell all we know
Of him. The first we ever heard of him
was at the last general election, when he
was candidate for the Senate in Madison
against Col. Phillips. He was rather promi-
nent in that campaign, for he represented
himself in the whole canvass as the oul1
| legitimate father offhe Union Bank boastine
all the while that he had introduced the mea.
sure into the Legislature. For this boast and
his contemplate sycophancy to loco-locoism
he was beaten for the Senate. He is now 9
candidate for the Senate, and is an avowed
enemy to the payment Of the State Bond.
! issued for the Union Bank. Internationally
without qualification, is he opposed to the
payment Of the Bonds which his cote assist
ed in creating. Why did he not announce
| himself sooner! Because he feared this fac
! which he well knew would place him II
no enviable light before the people of thi.
District, would become generally know, anc
by delaying until this late hour he hopec
vain hope) to be voted for. without inquiry
as the Democratic And-Bond paying candi
date. Let Col. F. deny this if he dare
Every man in the District shall be placed il
possession of this fact. He shall be know
far and near. If our bond paying democrats
will vote for him, they shall know how CON
sistant this man is, who is offering for so res
pectable an office as that of Senator.

Col Fulton's present position. We do moi
know or undertake to say that he asks his
election on that ground or for that reason !;
but we say, if we correctly understand the
matter, that will be the effect Of his cleo
ton and the prevalence Of his doctrines.
All we have stated, will, we think, not be
denied by Col Fulton or his friends Then
we ask, whether the people ought to vote
for him. Why ought the people Of the State
of Mississippi TO pay $4,000 debt which
Col. Fulton owes for money which he Dor
rowed9 We are opposed to il. But voting
is free in this country, aud those who are il
favor of il, will of course vote that way.

Nothing was ever so perfectly down as is
the great Mississippi farce. The bond cues
ton is in this quarter perfectly fiat. 1t has
not been publicly spoken ofin the county for
several weeks, and in private conversation
you scarcely hear it mentioned. Most gladly
would its principal advocates dodge the ques-
ton, and let the election turn upon the old
question of Wing and Democrat. But il is
too late for that now. Thequestion has been
raised. 1t is the only question that has been
agitated in the Canvass and now the election
is approaching 1t must be met. It is too late
to dodge the question now. The very men
who are now trying to change the issue are
the same who two months ago so vociferous.
" contended that this was no question Of
Wing or Democrat. And now that the Bond
Question is doom, they will hardly be permit.
ted to change the issue.

To Democratic voters,

We address this short remark to such
democrats as are in favor of refusing the
States debts 1t is frequently asked how
are they going to vote? We will do YOU
the justice to say you will not vote for a
Governor or members of the Legislature
who stands solemny pledged to repudate
the State Bonds, although he NAV be, OF
may have been recognized as a democrat.
You cannot vote otherwise than on the
Bond Question. The question to be de-
cded at the polls is Bond" or Anti Bond >
And the issue cannot now be changed
Who, for the sake of electng any man to
office, will cast vote which he believes
to be vote of diShonOr and disgrace to
his State? No man who is proud Of being
Missssippan! Who will vote to sustain
and propagate what he believes and &C
knOwledges to be positire dishonesty for
the sake of any party? No man who is proud
of being a Missssippan. None but an
anti-bond man can vote for an anti bond
candidate. To say that the bonds ought
to be paid and pOte for one to repudiate
them is an inconsistency which few men III
Yazoo will be guilty of.

0~F Most OF the leading Democrats in this
city and neighborhood are heart and hand
with us on the bond question. Democrats do
you hear that! We could name the gentle
men if we thought necessary and had room
in our paper to MAKE the list. But, We re-
peat, that most of the leading democrats are
with US. They believe with Mr. Volney E.
Howard of Jackson, that triumph Of the
anti-bond men "wouId be unworthy of tina
great party" That iii would be but har
vest of dishonor comforting no lasting power.
This is the way they tell the thing in Yazo
