FELLOW CITIZENS

| = w VI l. IALAHhJ7
It's known to you that the
Legislature at its regular session estab-
lished "TTe District Chancery Court OF
| Mississippi" and required that the Gov
crnor should appoint 4 Vice Chancellor
to organize ard hold the court at Colam-
us, for the counties Of Lowndes, NoX-
u5ce, Octibbcha, Winston, Neshcba and
Kemper; at Fulton for Itawamba, fish
am1ngo, Pontotoc, Monroe and Chicka
saw; at CarroUton for Carroll, Holmes.
Choctaw, Talobusha and Tallahatehie
| and at Holly Springs for Marshall, Tip
pah, Lafayette, Ponola, Coahoma, Tuui-
ca and De Soto, and to hold the Office I'M
til the election in November next.
The appointment thus required to be
made was rendered to and accepted by
me, without solicitation on my part, and
entered Immediately upon the discharge
offs duties. Having received the office
by appointment from the Governor and
put the Courts into successful operation
am anxious to obtain il by the voice O
he People at the ballot box, and have be-
come candidate fer election.
My duty and inclination prompt me 10
make nlyselfknown to the voters Of the
District, but its size--twenty-three coun-
ties-and the duties Of the Office, which
kept me in court until the middle Of July
preclude the possibility of doing SO;
have therefore addressed you in this
form; but will also pass through as many
Of the counties as l can before the cleo
ton, and thus afford an opportunity Of
becoming personally known to you.
trust that am duly impressed with
the exalted station and the highly res
ponsible and arduous duties o. the Office
asked you; and although my vanity
even, will not allow me to lay claim to
the profound and extensive legal knowl-
edge, ripe Judgment, and just discrimina-
ton requisite to discharge its duties with
distinction; yet l have been induced to
ask the Office Of the people by having
been made to believe thatin discharging
the duties heretofore, | have given gen
eral satisfaction; aud that too under the
trying circumstances Of organizing, for
the first time, an Independent chancery
court for North Mississippi and deciding
a large number Of causes, many of which
The Weekly register., 1843-09-30

were important, both on account of the
principles and amounts involved in
them.
Being personally unknown in a large
portion of the District, deem it not i'm
proper to say 10 you, that reside in
Holly Springs, Marshall county, where
| settled at an early day after the organ
cation of the Chickasaw country-am
married, and have famiIy--and up to
the time appointed Vice Chancellor, had
been thirteen years practising my pro-
fession, on both the law and chancery
side, to the exclusion, of all other employ
ment; that have never been an office
seeker, q candidate fer or holder of office
before, but having accepted the appoint
ment Of Wee Chancellor, ahdRrrrender-
cd my practice, | desire to Be elected;
and that my fellow citizens may by their
votes say of me swell done good and
faithful servants" in return for which |
will not only be grateful, but promise
that will continue, as heretofore, to dis
charge the duties of the ofice-knowing
no man-fearing nc man: with dill
gence that shallnot tire, aided by my
short experience in discharging its du-
ties, and such legal knowledge and cap
acity for improvement as | may BE POS
scssed Of. 49,
Respectfully,

We have just learned that Mr.. T. S.
Masters, OF 70 Broadway, who was in a
tree, high among its branches during
the breaking out Of the bufaloes, fell 10
the ground. He.was taken TO the near
est house, and physician called, who
bled him, but he died in few minutes.
His friends took charge Of the corpse,
brought it to this city, and conveyed it
to his lodgings. Mr.. Masters was re-
Gently from Ireland, attached to the
Park Theatre, and has left, we under
stand, wife and two children.

ident of the United States;n but he could
not believe, unless he saw the document
with his own eyes, that that functiona-
ry had written the letter attributed to
him in favor of repeal.
SPAIN,-The eyes OF all Europe are
turned to the affairs of this country, and
the newspapers are filled with discus
sions upon them.
The queen has been declared Of age
subject to the ratification ofthe Cortes.
Every department Of the govern
ment is said to be sadly in arrears. The
contribution for public worship ard
the clergy" one of the taxes abolished
by Mendizabel, in June last, has been
re-established. ..
IRELAND.-In Ireland, matters con-
tinue stationary. One or two exciting
debates have taken place in Parliament
on the subject Of the present anomalous
state Of that country, which have ex-
hibited some of the Conservative party
attacking, with great bitterness the do
nothing policy of the government
Neither the rent nor the exertions of
O'Connell suffer any diminution. Fore
most in the parliamentary fight has been
Lord Brougham, TO whom the present
condition Of ireland is a source Of great
uneasiness, and who, for the purpose of
putting an end to it, has been thrusling
his services on the government; but
they repulsed him.
A great-perhaps the greatest-de-
mOnstration which has yet been made in
favor Of repeal, took place at Tara Hill
a memorable spot in the early history
Of Ireland and its kings, and celebrated
even in late years by the resistance
which was mode there to the Kings
forces by the "Croppies,'' in the rebel
ion of 1798--on Tuesday last. All the
accounts concur in representing this as
the greatest Of all the "monster meet
in5s."
WALES. The Rcbccca riots in South
Wales still continue, and have hitherto
defed the most energetic measures en-
ployed TO keep them down. Another e.
vent, too, has complicated the evils I'M
der which the people Of Wales now
groan. The copper-masters. of Swan
sec, ewing TO the great fall in the price
of that article, have found themselves
under the necessity Of reducing their
workmen's wages. a turnout has been
the consequence; and several thousands
Of them are now voluntarily out ofem-
ploymcrt.
France The French Jews is Of lit
tie interest Queen Christina contin-
ued busy in her labors to recover pow

THVFITS preparation has now stood the test of fifteen
IL years trial, and is confidently recommended as
n safe aud etfectual medicine for expelng worms
from the system. The unexampled success that had
attended it's administration in every case where the
patient was really afflicted with worms, certainly
renders it worthy the attention of Physicians. =.
The proprietor has made it point to ascertain the
result of its use in such cases came within his
knowledge and observation-an he invariably found
it to produce the most saIutary eflecs-not unfre-
quen,ly after nearly all the ordinary preparations re-
commended for worms had been previously resorted
to without any permanent advantage. This fact
is at,ested by the certificates, and statements Of hun
dreds of respectable persons in different parts of the
country-and should induce familie always to keep
a vial of the preparation in their possession. 1t is
warranted to contain no Caomil Corrosive, Sublmate
Croton OIL or any article which can prove dangerous.
