On Monday lasi, We had the MORT
hUliipn Il II loning IA one 1t lhc
slowtd, dragging, mons nslcal, hcw'
cd aud hacked speeches that cvcr

II. Williams, candidate for Govern
OF, TO represent the twelve hsyefs
who nominated him vt the LAST De
cember United States circuit court ~
Pontoloc Miss. lie arliculalod, and
that badly, that he abhorrtd cancuscs,
conventions, &c. The convention
of the 22d was oil sorts of a convcn-
ton, and the late one was no better.
After dlgesting few more words
about conventions, lac had the allron-
terry TO state that he did not present
himself before The people bringing
with him high character, or the re.
Communication of a caucus or conven.
ton. We differed with him widely
here, because we believe that we can
establish the fact, that he comes re-
commended by the Union b NIX and
the fernando Rail Road and Bank
ing company, these are formidable &
Influential in their way, and the man
who runs in opposition to them, will
ere long become satisfied that he Is
green
lie modestly told us that we were
a bond-mnking people; that we would
always deal in them, and that we
ought always deal in them, and that
we ought to pay them all. He quo
ted Jefferson, even TO. prove that
public faith ought to be maintained.
Next he quoted English Lords against
reputation. This is about the sum
and substance of his honor's speech.
To make the farce more ridiculous,
some wags called out a fellow known
and designated as Kendall, of Grena
d.. lie announced his utter inability
to make a speech (who did not know
Lhat? and attempted to mutter out
but he couldn't come it,
He soon ''let down." as all shor
horses will do. We never were so
startled in our life, to see that fellow
AVE the audacity 10 appear before IA
decent assembly ofpeople in the atti
ude of candidate for Congress-
i is laughable TO think of it. When
UGH characters will assume to be the
lead and front Of a party, we believe
hat it is high time for that party to
liSband and go TO the dogs, before
hey 60 to some other place.
Joseph Bell, Of Winston was called
'or. He appeared and addressed the
crowd in an exT ressive and lorcible
He made some home thrusls
at Williams, an they were felt by
him. He reminded the audience of
the nomination made by the Conven-
ton of 1871. lie asserted that Mr..
Williams was going on rejoicing for
the good luck he had met with in
getting the namination for Governor,
by the same convention that nominal
ted r. s. Graves for Treasurer. In
the course of Mr.. Bells remarks,
Kissing, coughing, and low talking,
was put on foot to oyerwhelm him.
Nothing more kind and respectful
could be anticipated form "honor &
men, and more particularly
from town loafers and lawyers.
Mr.. Bell, is gentleman endowed
with'a good share of talents, clever
man and clear headed Politician
There are none in this Legislature,
who are more attentive to the inter
ct ofthe people than Joseph Bell
Besides, he is TO all intents and pur-
poses, an"out and out" repu 1iator.-
Mr.. Tompkins was "sorter'' called
for He demagogue like, played his
part in his wonted hypocritical way.
To all appearances, he demonstrated
Iheman who received a small pitjance
10 utter his billingsgate which flow
ng from an infatuated and deranged
mind. No one can be mistaken in
rearing this modern Iago. He bears
Upon his forehead the impress of
Judas, and upon his cheeks the smiles
If a Spaniard.
