Dear Sir, IN HE Mi,,iaIppIhn ol
the 18Th ,nd., observed llio above
communication, over the signature
OF H.. purpoting 10 bo written by u
cilizcnof THIS County, and probes my
TO give tho feelings VI The Dcmecra.
c, upon the proceedings aud nomna'
lious Of the late Dom jcratic State
convention.
Upon rca ling this communication.
every individual at all familiar with
the sentiments and feelings Ola very
large majority OF the party 10 this
county, cannot fail TO be impressed
with the belief that this kaoving
correspondent Of the Mississipp,nn IL
either totally ignorant OF the subject
on which he Whites; or in his "patri'
oiic zeal for The pcrpetuation of the
principles of democracy totally
regardless Of vciacity and candor,
viewing the aspcc; of political effairs
through the distorted medium of his
own disordercd imagination, this Mr.
3. is III extacies himself, and has the
temerity TO assert in the face OF the
strongest possible indications TO the
contrary, that 'the nominations made
by the Convention are hailed with
satisfaction" Now, have long
been citizen of this county, and
Sinse the result of The convention Was
made known, have mixed and con-
versed with the people as much per.
haps, as Mr.. b. or amy other person,
and strange as it may appear to him,
candor compells me 10 say that have
not been able to discover this general
satisfaction, but on the contrary, find
much dissatisfaction and complaint.
Indeed do not believe that the
present ticket meets the appreciation
or will receive the united, much less
the Jealous support Of the Democrat
ic party. mo regret is expressed
in regard to L. M. fuckers defeat,
but OH the contrary, manifest re-
joicing prevails" How much Mr.
BIS feelings may be enraptured,
know not; but This do know, that
al,ho' his patriotic bosom may be
burning--his jealous soul o'erflowing
withioy, and his voice tuned to the
praise OLA. G.. M'Nutt, and requiem
ofthe fallen las he supposes) Tucker,
"A IKE feeling has manifested itSelfin
no other quarter, and from present
appearances, | am led TO conclude
that he will find but few so destitute
of moral sentiment, and the ordinary
feelings Of men, as TO join him III his
eXultatious over the wrongful defeat
of fellow citizen so long and so
avorably known as L. M. Tucker
has been III this community.
Altho' Mr.. fuckers former friends
may have differed with him on some
measures OF his admins ration, and
may even consider his course in the
late Graves affair somewhat inetfi-
Gent, yet they are very far from be-
ing prepared to say that they will
upset, renounco, and rejoice over the
defeat of man, whom, not two years
since, they were proud to acknowl-
edge as their leader, the champion Of
their cause, and the only man in all
the ranks Of Democracy, sufficiently
bold and daring to enter the contest ,
on the side Of the people, against the
united forces of Whigery, Bond pay
ers and Bankites. Nay. sdch base i
ingratitnde, ] am proud 10 say, is not a
Characteristic Of the Democracy OF a
Winston, and is worthy only OF the t
contemplate, wheedling parscite I
who, regardless Of past favors, will a
forsake his fallen friend and barter d
off his cbaracrer for the smiles of
those In power, whenever his own
sordid and selfish purposes demand Il
the sacrifice. But hear him again. [
'The announcement Of A. G. M'Nutt tt
tor U. >. Senator is received with Il
such acclamations as bespeak the L
signal triumph that awaits him at "a
The coming election" Here, as in ii
The former case, Mr.. 3. has all the bi
glory, all the JOY, and all the exulta- c;
Ion to himself, and to his acclama- tn
ions, can hear no response but the IcT
'choS Of his own falsc and calumni- ldt
ting voice from the lofty pines Of the a.
orrest, for let Mr.. Il. be assured that ia
UGH reJoicings and acclamations as ha
e speaks Of would not be tolerated ar
n public place, or public manner. ID

edly and confidentially when | say If
