AND YET ANOTHER.

Benjamin Kennedy, the Individual Who cot
such a big swell during the paImy dsysof the
Union Bank imitation, and who was President
Of It's Lexington branch, has received another
blow at the hands Of some good honest demo.
crai, who goes in for the essence instead Of the
alureing name Of democracy We fad the
communication Of said good honest democrat
in the Grenada Herald, which is also eenu-
me democratic paper. Should Mr.. Kennedy
make denial of ever having advocated the
"expediency" Of a National Bank, we shall
hand him over to "Old Roam and after he is
done with the gentleman, we shall file bill
and demand, as a matter of right, that portion
of him which will not have been entirely used
up. The toast alluded to, as having been han
ded in by Mr., Kennedy, was either read by
the President of the day or delivered by him.
self, at Fourth Of July dinner at Shongalo,
in the year 1897. At that time Mr. Kenne.
dy was laborng under mental arrangement, ,
brought about by dreadful disease, called the
Union Bank fever, and perhaps it would be
wrong for any one of his friends 10 show op-
position to his election to the Senate, or talk
about the matter in any other way, as the idea
of getting $1,000 and being made an Officer
of Bank, would make most of people have
hankering thoughts and visionary dreams in
favor Of all similar Institutions
The inconsistent course of Mr. Kennedy is
not known to half the voters of Carroll coun-
ty. 1t is an easy matter for every body TO in
form themselves of the course he pursued du-
ring his legislative term. twas certainly any
thing but that which would gain the favor and
affections of the people. During the -four
ishing days of all the banks-the davs of bank
rascality and bank robbery-this gentle man
was in the zenith of his glory. He was the
"noblest banker OF them ALL" Now, behold
my Lord, a "change has come DER the spirit
of his Dream" and behold, after he finds the
banks can render him no further assistance, a
dreadful horror turns his once paaable stom.
ach against them all, and induces him 10 cling
to the reputation flag. The communication

PETTAoocowA, CARROLL Co., Miss,

Mr.. Edtor-Your "Abatuponbogue" cor
respondent makes heavy tilt at our Demo-
cratic brother, Kennedy, who is candidate
for the Senate. was in doubt about the truth
Of his proposition to sell five millions more of
the Union Bank bonds, while director of the
Lexington branch, until neighbor of mine
informed me that he was full-bIooded United
States Bank man in 1888, and that he deliver
ed toast at fourth of July dinner in 1887
or 1888, favoring United States Bank which
toast was printed in the Carrollton paper, at
the time. Now, if all this is true as much as
love Democracy and cherish united spirit
among US, | would prefer the most rankerous
whig in the county to such a man for any of
fee. The Democrats of this county love con-
SiStcney too well to be honey-fuged in this
way. You are authorized TO give up my name,
when these facts are denied and do not bring
up the proof. Lower your dignity a little,
Colonel, and let us hear your defence.
