The STATE BoNDs. --ltis amusing TO
see the nonchalance with which the mis-.
cradle stpepda!ies Of banks yand severy
other privileged robber, pronounce their
right to plp1der the people by taxation
without their consent. Mr.. Elliott, owner
of the Maltese Jack which has, by his
penal actions, done more to curtai the
issues of the Union Bank and raise the
value Of its notes, than all the two legged
Jacks connected with it, has handed over
the correspondence between Governor
M'Nutt and Hope & Co., to man who
calls himself Charles Scott for his opinion -,
and TO prevent the bond holders as he
says, from making sacrifice. Who this
Charles Scott is, God only knows, it is
the first time we ever heard of him; but
it appears that he is an attorney, and an
attorney too for the famous Unic,l Bank.
How he gets his pay we are equally igno-
rant, and unless he is paid in kind by the
labors of his Maltese friend we cannot
even conjecture. But Charles delivers
his opinion in SIX or seven mortal columns
Of the Souihron, as oracluarly as the bray
ing of the Jack prepares for coming
storm. According TO Charles notion of
law, logic and morals, the people are Ie-
gaIIy and morally bound 10 pay the Union
Bank Bonds, and they must prepare the
tax instanter 10 square up the accounts.
So the regal, swiudIers in Europe may
make themselves easy. Charles Scott
and few more hungry humbug Tennes-
see lawyers who have lately, like locus,s,
taken "their flight to this state TO eat ont
its substance, will demonstrate the pro-
priety of reducing the lreemen of this
country TO Vassalage, for the support of
the paper system, funding and foreign
stok- gamblers. After Charles proclama-
ton, DR.. Gwin, Mr.. Freeman and, Old
Ironsides may as well quit the stump, and
the people may as well prepare to become
tenants at will, TO the ex.King of Holland
and the other royal swindlers. Charles
will be agent for one entire county, and
all the Yergers here, and in Tennessee
and all TO be born for the next 90 wears
shall have the agencies OF county pro-
Yided for each during their natural lives,
and the same shall inure to their decend-
ants while grass grows and water runs.
Every other lawyer that takes the stump
for the bond holders, shall have some fat
living conferred on him for life and his
defendants after him, and all shall be paid
out of the sweat of the people of Misss-
sippi These hungry Tennessee lawyers
say they can demonstrate that our planters
can bear this tax, and still live as we'll as
the mass of the farmers of Tennessee.
whose standard Of comfort they intend TO
establish 10 this state as soon as they are
in office. But our planters TO
effect this object and maintain the honor
and glory OF the state must all be their
own overseers - ' 1' ft..
They must stay at home at all times,
eat coarse meat and that only once a day,
dispense with all their former luxuries
and most OF the necessaries Of life. They
must work hard and live low till thew die,
and the Tennessee lawyers can demons
strate that this course of life will ensure
them length of days here eternal happi-
ness in the world to come, while they and
The iundmongers, bankers and other priv.
lodged thieves will live in style Of
orinceIy magnifcence. This will be
comfortable for both parties.-The stock
gamblers can revive the Union Bank as
soon as the taxes come ic, and the Maltes
Jack shall have, in consideration of for

splendid park laid out in the choicest

N. B. In the letter recently received
