REPUTATION.

| The foul and nefarious political heresy
liquidation, owes its paternity to The glori-
Gus Modern Democracy. 1t is the legiti-
mate offspring ofthat party, who have piled
mountain high. their gross eplthets upon
the purest men and most devoted patriots
our nation has ever produced. We rejoice,
however, to know that there is virtue and
patriotism enough amongst the so-called
Democratic party, to denounce this heresy
as anti-republican, dishonest and disorgani-
zlng. We canadd our testimony that we
have never yet seen an honest man, one
who pays his own obligations faithfully, JUS
tify the course of the Repudiationists in our
sister State. Mississippi. We do not say
there are none, for there may be those, who,
unacquainted with the facts that think The
State is not morally or legally bound 10 pay
her Union bonds We venture, neyerthe-
less, none will attempt to justify the course
which has been pursued, after full knowl-
edge of the circumstances as connected with
the history OF the Repudiating of the State

ject we find in the 'sSouthern Gaia Flag.

There are so many considerations and

people in favor of payment, that they cer-

Mississippi once oc-
cupied a respectable station among her
neighbors but her Reputation is lost and
she is now covered with the eurses and ere

but there is not hardly democrat out of the |
State but what denounces in the most en-
phatic terms the course of Mississippi as i
and UNJUST. They

contracted and which they had the benefit

Mr. EDIToR We hear 1t said by those
opposed to a tariff. that in It's operation the
producer is injured, especially of the South,
from the diminished demand, and consequent
reduction of the price of her great staple,
cotton. The South is deeply interested, and
should investigate this measure of public pol
icy with view to settle the question, wheth-
er the same, in its practical results does so
operate2 If satisfied from such invesliga-
ton OF the truth of the assertion. so far
from giving to the tariff our sanction
and support, we should be united as one

our system of policy. AS this is but cor-

1t will be remembered that it is there stated

abroad and sold for IN our market, and the
price for which the same article can be man.

must be kept in mind thet the foreign manu-

that foreign fabrics would not be excluded
from our market but BY a violation ofthat rule
