SIGNS OF TROUBLE.-The Washington cor
respondent Of the Charleston Courier writes
on the 7th instant.
The prospect of annexation at this session,
by joint resolution, is not very fair. It has
been supposed that the members Of both
Houses would prefer to devoIve the sub iect
on their successors, and that the Senators
especially were not prepared in sufficient
numbers TO change their opinions. Butthls
day we have strange reports, growing, in part,
from late Mexican adviCes, and partly from
the dissensiOns which have broken out be-
tween the Calhoun party and the old hunkeTs,
and showing that new coalitions may be
made in favor Of immediate annexation
There is talk, to-day, Of compromise be-
tween the anti~Van Buren, democrats and
the Southern and portion Of the Northern
Wings 10 this end. We shall see what we
shall see, but there are to be strange cOmbI'
nations and mutations here this winter.

Printers COnYcntiOn.

Several papers in this State have sugges'
ted the prOprietY Of holding a Printers Con-
venton, at Jackson, for the purpose Of es>
tablishing uniform system Of prices. This
we are in favor Of, but at the same time
we think this will do but very little good,
es there are many rats who will take advan-
tago Of the regular prices, and in order to
get work, will do it below the regular es.
tablished prices. The SouthrOn recommends
the first Monday in May next; we agree TO
this. The same paper suggests that for
the 'present every paper take down its pub
lished terms, and do the best it can until
the convention is held" To this sugges.
ton we cannot agree, as it would do no
good whatever.

MIR. CHARLES F. SCHELING.

The gentleman whose name heads this
article, visited this place in October last for
the purpose of giving Constructions in Mu-
sc", and as a matter OF course, had to no
tify "thc ladies' and gentlemen Of Yazoo
City and vicinity" of the fact through the
columns Of our paper, by an advertisement,
for which he has forgotten to pay us, and
as we know nothing of his whereabouts, we
take this method Of reminding him that his
account at this office of 81 90 is unpaid.
Mr.. Scheling hailed from Natchez, and we
wish our friend Prewit, Of the Courier, to
act as our agent in this matter, and should
he see this teacher of Music, to give him a
dun.
While on this subject, we have another
professional scamp to notice, by the name
of
DIR. Henry j. Holmes,
who resides, or did reside, at Spring Ridge,
Kinds county. This scoundrel forwarded
TO US, through the columns of the SOuthron,
in June, l943, an advertisement of bis
"Infrmary", with a request that we should
forward our bill, which would "be paid on
presentation. We complied with his re.
quest, and although we have written to him
frequently, he has as yet failed to pay u.s.
We understand, however, that he is a most
notorious scoundrel and will pay no debts
if he can avoid it.
We hope our editorial breathren will have
an eye upon those fellows, and no. sufel
themselves to be cropped in" as we have
been.

gard Of millions of the people of both sexes,

Who thinks less of Henry Clay, now that
the hope of seeing him President of the Uni

less a statesman, less an orator, less patri-
Of? Who values his past services less, and
feels less pride in having supported such a
man? Who would cherish a token from him
less because he has been defeated in the con.
test for the Presidency that has Just closed
Not One-no: one! His praises are still on
the tongues Of millions. His fair country
women feel and deplore his defeat as deeply
as it is possible foT their fathers, husbands.
and brothers to feel it. A bevy of beautiful
girls in our own city were affected even to
tears, when the intelligence that all was lost
was conveyed to their ears. The recollec.
ton of having contributed TO secure him the
vote of this State. is cherished by every Wing
of Ohio as something that he can tell with
pride to the latest day. Though defeated,
he stands yet in the estimation Of his friends
the greatest man Of the day. He is still
