Gov. McNuTT's ADDRESS, We copy the
address Of Gov. McNuit to the people Of
Mississippi, and ask for II careful peru
cal. We are glad TO loarn that the Govern
or will mingle freely with, and address the
people, pending tho November election.
No station is so dignihed as to be dishonor-
ed by such course on the part of an as
pirant or incumbent; and 1t is only a self
important set, generally themselves brain
less and easily dupod, who affect contempt
for the virtue and intelligence Of the mass
Of their fellow-cltizens, that object to these
appeals to the real source Of all power in
this country. These who advocate correct
principles have nothing 10 fear by an ap-
peal 10 tho masses, whose interests and in
olinaions always lead them to favor equal
rights and exact Justice
"Ihcre are none that fear that tho Truth should
10 heard,
Save those whom tho Truth would indite"
The bankers, ,htfundmongcrs, the mono
polists, and others who live and thrive BY
systems Of legalizod plunder, their dupes,
and their dependents who "crook the prcg-
nant hinges Of tho knee, where thrift may
follow hwning,n are all interested in in
culcating the notion that there arc stations
in this country above and beyond the in.
nuence Of the popular will, lin filing which
political working, bribery, and corrup-
ton may be freely rcsorted to- and that il
10 degrading the station for candidates to
argue the principles and measures upon
which they will act before tho people,
Such notions meet with but littlo favor in
Mississippi. Some few pharasaical demo-
Gratis, and, we believe, the wings general
ly, profess TO have their nerves shocked BY
what they call /" such prostitution Of the
dignity and independence Of the staiion.n
The former belle their professions; and tho
latter make Il convenient to forget that
their candidates in the Presidential cleo
tions Of 1910 and "a, "prosliiusod the dig
nifty" Of still higher station by haran-
g0ing their followers from tho stump.
We hope "ihe old war-horsen may meot
with an enthusiastic reception in al. parts
Of the State. from ,he people he has 50
well aud so faithfully served.

o. Some ofiicious parson, eager for no
toriety, lately addressed letter to Messrs
Polk and Clay, in relation to the proposed
division Of the Methodist Chnrch--the ef.
feet Of such division, politically, &c. Mr.,
Polk very properly declined answering, OF
saying anything about the division Of the
Methodist Church. Mr.. Clay (sihe com.
lPlete letter wrter,") Immediately indiied a
reply, which is published, and which, in
connection with the interrogatories pro-
pounded, reminds us Of the fellows who
debated the question " How do the apples
&c! into the dumplings !"--and decided in
the affirmative.

FlsAHcIEaiNe. The following, from
lthe Washington correspondence of Inc
Charleston Courier, may be The true ok.
'lplanasion of the mysterious mission 81
tho Texan envoy, Ashbel Smith, 10 foreign
lParts. The writer evidently knows what
he Is talking about:
"The object Of That mission has moi
been fully disclosed, although some apollo.
gy for i is made in The authorized stnle.
ment in the Journal Of Commerce. The
true object is believed 70 be 10 obtain 4 loan
q twelve millions to pay the Texas debt.
Inc Texan scrip was purchased, and Is
held in large amounts BY some individu-
ais with whom Mr. Smith aud President
Jones are concerned. Some Of Il is own.
cd, indeed, by foreign capitalists Of innu-
ence, 10 tho present state of feeling in
England and France, adverse to annexa-
tIcn, and while the Texan Government
makes show Of resistance to lle policy
OF annexation, il will be very easy 10 get
the loan, or, at least, 10 sell scrip at 40
advanced price. Individuals now in the
government Of Texas, or closely connect
ed with Il, will thus make their fortunes,
no matter how quickly annexation may
follow the consummaiion Of The scheme.
The people Of Texas will accept the terms
offered in the House resolutions, and fur
tlermore, they care not fig for the debt,
and ! am informed will repudiate it--or
will consent 10 redeem il only at The actu-
al rate, not the nominal rate at which il
was issued. They will not pay one dol
lar and interest for what was issued at
eight cents. This determination on the
part of the people Of Texas is The cause,
in part, of the delay of the Texan govern
mcnt to act on the proposals of the United
States. Should Mr. Smith contract loan,
The people Of Texas will not sanction the
act"

TENNEssEE.--The accounts Of the can,
vass in this State continue TO be cheering
10 the democracy. Foster susiains his sink,
ing cause with almost superhuman effort,
and with much ingenuity and pausibiity
but his antagonist, armed with the panoply
Of truth and right, has him at fearful odds.
The result Of the elections in the Old Do
minion has not injured Brown any, what
ever effect It may have had upon the pros
poets OF his antagonist.
Mississippi Democrat., 1845-05-28

GONG A BEeeING.-- Three South Caroli-
mans, Calhoun, Elmorc, and Pickens, have
declined the appointment Of Minister to
England-salary $4,000 per ann. with an
outfit OF $4,000. Can any other State in
the Union produce three prominent men
who would decline SO tempting a prize !
II Is understood that Mr.. Calhoun was dis
missed from the Cabinet on account of his
(supposed) disagreementwiti the President
on the Oregon question under these cir
cumstances, he and his peculiar friends
have determined not 10 take any part tor
play second iddle,) in negotiations on this
quesiion--while Mr.. Polk seems very anx-
ious that some CaroIinian should be enga-
ged with him.
