HUMBUG AHOYI

Some time since the loco-foco presses com.
menced sneering at, and deriding Judge Shat
TUCK, because of his humble origin. These
'ordiy aristocrats discovered that the Judge
was at one time IN Aa.ly l:fa an i.ururble PEN.
LAR, and at once their presses opened on him
In full chase. That he was pEDLAR was e.
nough to damn him to all intents and purposes
IN the eyes OF those worthless, and they fool,
lshly thought it would have the same effect
among the people. But in this they were mis-
taken-the friends of Judge Shattuck did not
deny that he had been pedlar, on the con.
trary they gloried in it, and proclaimed to the
world that ne had not only been pedlar, but
that he had been first rate sroNE-MAsoN!-
The oco-focos finding that sneers at the Judge
because of his humble origin, did not affect
him, have resorted 10 new humbug by which
they hope to turn the tide setting so strongly
in favor of Judge Shattuck, and the last Mis-
sissippian, absolutely announces that Tighl-
man nj. Tucker is a blacksmith 1t may be
true or it may be false, we know nothing about
it. If true ii detracts nothing from his mer-
its, nor can it add to them If he is GOOD
blacksmith, it is pity he did not stick to the
business. He isa poor politician, and so far
as the country is concerned it is LosER-it
lost good blacksmith and gained mighty
poor politician.- VickS. Wig.

three honorable men, who negotiated the sales
of the Union Bank Bonds, in their sale to

FROM THE vIcKsBURG WING.
THE DISCUSSION LAST MONDAY

1t was not ourinsention to trouble our rea
ders with an extended notice of the speect
of Mr.. John ID. Freeman, or of the eIoquen
and triumphant reply to it delivered by Mis-
sissippi's proudest orator, Sargent S. Prentiss
Those who heard it, and nearly all our popu
lation were present know Mr.. Prentiss anc
have heard him often many of them too know
the pop-gun orator. which locofocoism ha:
set up as his great rival. With them we were
perfectly willing to lave the question, conf
dent as we were and are still, that the cause
of truth, honesty and Justice would lose moth.
ing when advocated by Mr.. Prentiss, be his
opponent whom he night
As the Vicksburg Sntnel has thought pro-
per to indulge in the most extravagant eulo-
gies of Mr.. Freeman'sspeech, and has trium-
phanty declared that MIR. Prentiss was used
! up by Mr.. Freeman, we shall in a very brief
manner refer TO it. We shall not call Mr..
Freeman "graffe" nor shall we charge him
with utteringa 'goodly number of bald and
unmitigated les" that we leave to our refined
and classical neghbor-we will not poach up
on his manor
We said incur last that we were disappoint-
ed in Mr.. Freeman's speech, and we were So;
and we know that some of his anti-bond friends
were equally disappointed. From the many
hlgh-wrought eulogies upon his speeches, at
other places we expected tohear sound and
able argument, we'll delivered, and in good
language. On the contrary we heard him
wade through a two hours speech without
advocating one solitary idea worthy of the
name of argument. 1t was from beginning to
end wretched tumble of high sounding words
strung together in the worst possible taste.
There was nothing new or original about it,
not figure in language position in argu-
ment which has not been literally worn out
from frequent use. Indeed the whole speech
can be seen by any one who has file or two
OF locofoco papers. 1t is only necessary to
turn back the pages for the last six months,
and The searcher after the grand and beautiful,
can find the whole of Mr.. F's. speech, and
with this advantage they will find it dealt out
IN more convenient parcels, put up in quanti
Ties to suit purchasers. In one void it was
nothing more or less than the thousand times
refuted slang daily put forth through tie col
0mns OF the antl-bond press, and we can as
sure the reader that in passing through Mr..
rs hands it lost nothing either in matter or
manner. I'VE are in error however. in sta.
ing that Mr.. f. advanced nothing neac, he did
and the idea we doubtnot is original with him
Tor we know, no one else soft enough to father
1t TOR him. 1t is this. In the course of his talk

Friend HARLOW of the "Attala Gazette
will settle matter of doubt by stating wheth
er or not the communication in his paper, un-
der the head of "Union Bank Bonds" was
or was not written by notorious off-cast,
Familiarity known to the people of Mississippi
as defaulter under the late administration
which was, happily for the nation, SO suddenly
hurled from the ascendancy. We are conf
dent, from daily observation that none, unless
influenced by 'brbe or gain,' can or dare
maintain such policy of downright swind-
ling by the State. The writer is either pet
tifogger, broken down politician, defaulter or
an dnti-honest dupe swayed by the leaders of
the loco-foco party, who are nothing more than
a clan of defeated and disappointed politicians
turned "rogues and swindlers." A brandy
sling for the truth of what we've said.
