Or The Holly Springs Guard, in ondea-
voring to establish that Gov. McNUTT was
opposed to the Annexation of Texas, says
that report to that effect " came to the
wing mass meeting at Holly Springs last
summer" and was repeated and believed.
Indeed! We imagine that it was reported
and generally believed at she same meet
ing that Henry Clay would be elected Pre-
sident. Many reports "came to the whig
mass meeting at Holly Springs" friend Of
the "Guard," which had no foundation in
fact-among them the report that Gov
McNutt was opposed to the annexation o.
Texas.

MCNUTT as candidate for United State.
Senator, and we shall keep it there unit
the election, or until most decided indi
cation of popular preference shall designate
some other citizen-a result not within the
remotest bounds of probability. We had
designed taking advantage of the occasion
to rehearse at length the services and
claims of the old "war-horse of Mississippi
Democracy" but we have been prevented
from doing so by illness and debility. We
give extracts from our contemporaries more
appropriate than any thing we could say,
and shall from time to time present our
readers with what Ito us) seem overruling
and unanswerable reasons why "Old Nc. )"

ATTORNEY GENERAL.

BA1NBRIDGE D. HOWARD, Esq, of Coffee
vile, is suggested by correspondent OF
the " Dollar Democrat writing from Tai
lahatchie county, as suitable person Tor
the office of Attorney General of the State.
The editor of the I" Democrat" also speaks
in very complimentary terms of Mr.. H.
The names Of D. C. GLENN, Esq, of
Kinds, and w. S. FEArHERsToN, Esq, iof
Chickasaw, have also been mentioned IN
connection with the office, by the newspa-
pers, and by several county meetings.
There is still another gentlemen whose
name we have frequently heard mention
ed, in private circles, as most fit and pro-
per person for this station, and we shall
take the liberty of mentioning his name
publicly. We allude to FRANKLIN SMITH,
of Madison county. all who are IA
miliar with our State politics, know that
Frank: Smith is bold, Incorporating,
enthusiastic democrat. His published let
ter to Carroll Spence, of Baltimore, vindi-
eating the conduct of the State in the Re-
pudiation of the Union Bank bonds, was
one of the most able documents elected by
the discussion of that subject. He was
the author, TOO, of series of able and
convincing essays, against the payment of
those bonds, published in the " MississiP-
plan" during the last State canvass. For
his views in matter Immediately apper-
tanning to the duties of the Attorney Gene
raj, see the extract from a letter written by
him to the democrats of Claiborne county,
published in No. Is of this paper. This
short extract may be taken as a sample OF
his writing-bold, vigorous, original, and
breathing the pure spirit of democracy and
justice. No speaker in the State with the
exception of two or three of the electors,)
took more active part in the Presidential
election than Mr.. Smith. He addressed
large meetings at Jackson, Vicksburg, Gal

his own county, where the election was

position as any man of his age in the State.
He is now District Attorney for the 9TH dis
trict, the duties of which station he has
discharged with fidelity and ability. We
hope he will permit his name to be pre-
sented to the July Convention for the no.
