this ticket will be all in my eye.
Like our whig brethren we regard the
bond question as the great issue before
the people, and we would therefore
cheerlully vote bond paying ticket
composed Of consistent democrats, in any
case where the question was raised, and
no wing ticket being run. But we would
as soon vote for an open repudiator as
for one in disguise. There is q choice
Of evils where we think the wings would
do well TO take neither. ....,.
But again, suppose the wings unite
on that ticket and it is beaten? WIZ
that show that the people repudiate?
No. For if Clayton or Williams are
elected, it will be known to be on tina;
issue directly made, AMI no one can lon
ger contend with a shadow Of reason
that the State repudiates. The ques
ton will be determined by the result Of
the gubernatorial, not the Congression-
al ELECTION, and we have no right to
claim that the election Of hondpaying
Congressman is important TO the honor
of the State, unless. we viii confess that
the State is dishonored FIVE fail to elect
them Unless we will agree to that con-
fession we virtually declare that the re-
suit Of the Congressional election is ut
terly immaterial as affects the express
sion of the public voice on that subject.
And what bond-payer will agree to it?
"Southern Weekly Reformer I've
have received the first number of a new
paper bearing the above title, and pub
ished at the city Of Jackson, by w. NJ.
Smyth, Esq. 1t is the largest paper in
the State, and for typographical exc
cution, flay vic with any out oft. We
rccollect Mr.. Smyth as the editor of the
Grand Gulf Advertiser, which was al
ways one Of the most interesting papers
in the State. We are at war with HIM
politically, but we give him the right
hand Of fellowship as an old acquaintance
in the editorial corps.
o. We publish this week copious
extract from the Address Of the Com
mittee Of the Wing Convention which
we commend to the attentive perusal Of
our readers. We have yet remaining
several copies Of the Address in pam
phIet form, with which we shall be hap
py to furnish any Of our friends who
may desire TO Feruse them. The ad-
| dress is drawn up with ability, and is at
once comprehensive, complete and con-
vincing. We do not think an in'elligen /
man is likely to read it and say any
more that he is an an.i-bonder.
OF The great leaders Jefferson and
+ Jackson were both Tariff men. Tha
f Wing doctrine at least is one Of genuine
''JeiIersonian democracy" The dem
ocracy of the present day denounce it a
, Federalism.
o. A democratic Convention wa
lately held in Massachusetts. Tw
, Van Buren, delegates to the Baltimor
National Convention were chosen owe
two for Calhoun by a majority of IA
votes, 531 being the whole number {
ballots.
, o. In March and April last upward
of two thousand houses were destroye
at Manila by fire, at two successive cor
flagrations.
Or The Van Buren, and Caiheu
a factions Of the locoloco party are wal
/ ringright strongly on each other in tn
f northern States. The Calhoun me
0 say they will not be dragooned into tn
e support ofthe Undertook magician an
0 the Van Burenites think the South Care
e linian is not Talleyrand enough to wor
r the wires TO the best advantage. Tt
