THE COLUMBUS DEMOCRAT AND DEMO-
CRATIC REvIEw.-Ou neighbour seems to have
fallen out with his text book; but his remarks
upon the article from the "Review" on the
subject ofsState Credit" are of the character,
which we anticipated. Unable to answer The
arguments or deny the facts upon. which they
are based, he fiiesoff at tangent into some
general denunclation and VapId criticism with.
out either justice or force. 1t is amuch east
er matter to pass sentence than to. shew. the
propriety of it.
Although we consider the article IN nthe
Democratic Reuieto" conclusive argument
against the doctrine of RepudiatioD,.i it was not
so much on account Of it's ability in that res.

We introduced it into our columns. "The
Democratic Review" has received more and
higher encomiums, from the Loco Foco press
of this State than any other work in the Union
for the correctness Of its political principles
and the ability ofits productions; and perhaps
to none has it been more indebted for such no.
tice than to the"C olumbus Democrat" It's
welfknown that the doctrine 'of Reputation
owes its paternity and support to the Loco Fo:

offspring, which is considered by their oracle
as spurious and dsgraceful.

MIssTssIppT REPRESENTATIVES,.

The excessively high waters have preven-
ted our receiving any late news from Jackson.
For general account of the proceedings of
the Legislature we copy the following extract
from the Vicksburg Wing.
WHAT is THE LEGISLATURES DO
INeS-This is a question frequently
asked Us, and we will now endeayor
briefly TO answer it. In few words
then, they are doing nothing! literally
nothing! For weeks of the session
have passed away, day after day has
been wasted in idle and useless wrang-
ling about unnecessary questions. ques-
tons which should never have come
up in the Legislature, and during the
whole Of this time, the peoples, bu-
siness, the legitimate business Of the
Legislature has been wholly and entire-
sly neglected.. Why is this so! We
know what has already been said. and
what willcontinue to be said, by the
locofoco party, that the. s'factious
Wings" threw obstacles in the way of
the majority and endeaVor By all means
IN their power to retard the transaction
of business! The charge is false, but
admitting that were true, it could be
of no avail The anti-bond party
have an overwhelming majority in both
Houses and they alone are responsible
tor the neglect Of the public business,
ana the waste Of the public time and
public money. During the last can
yass, they told the people. that hereto
fore the Wings had sufficient strength
IN the Legislature to- prevent them. from
carrying out their measures, and con-
'hdng in'theiF honesty and devotion. TO
the pabic veal, they listened to their
false and hypocriticaI cries and gave

ures. They will be held responsible,
and a terrible reckoning awaits them
when they return to the people they.
have so basely wroDged and betTsy-
ed!
Bm, the truth is the majority have
not attempted to do anything. They
have not attempted to touch single
great measure, which they stand pfedg-
ed to carry out What have they
done with the Union Bank, that mon
ster of crime and evil which they pro-
missed to place in liquidation? Have
they approached Il? They have not!
On the contrary they refused 10 con-
slider a resolution instructipg the ju-
dicary committee TO report. bill for
that purpose, and with most indecent
haste laid il on the. table. What.have
they done with the Union Bank bonds,
those bonds of.which so much was
said before the. peoples. Have they
passed formal act of reputation; an
nouncing to the holders their determin-
alton not to pay thems By no means.
-Theybave not even proposed such
an act! VIVA thave they done with the
Planters Banks Have they taken or
proposed any measures to secure the
assets of this copcern and protectthe
people from taxation? TheV hare not!
Is it said they have not yet had suf-.
ficient time? A month has passed
away, snd yet-Hot one solitary report
from a single. important committee has
been made! What ate they waiting
for? Itcannot be expected that the
minority are 10 mature and bring for
ward these measures-the majority
stand pledged II carry { e n through
the Legislature, and to them the duly
legitimately belongs. The minority
are powerless for good OF. for evil.
They are bound hand and FOOT. and if
the majority had that power, their
tongues would soon be tied, and their
mouths closed. But thank God, the
corrupt and reckless majority now in
power cannot if they dare, and dare
not If they can, enforce any permanent
muzzle. upon the voice of free people
