Col, jefferson Davis.

"Gov Brown has, learn appointed Col. Jefferson
Davis Congress- in the place OF Gen Jesse spegh
meritorous officer, and worthy man He is Calhoun
, his and Ys9 ps ws
Matches Free Trader, l1th dug.
Our contemporary we are well informed is in error in
regard to Col. Daviss position. He is not Calhoun
democrat, in the acceptaton in which that term is now
received Tue he was one of the staunch supporters OF
the great Carolinan, whilst that gentleman stood for
ward the champion OF the administration on the ques
tons of and OF annexation; but no man more
condemns his course since he has failed to sustain the
democratic party the which has been the result of
the acquisition of Texas Doubtless, he is still an
admrer OF the genius of Mr. Calhoun, but he does not
trim his lamp in accordance with the giraffe course OF
He is the friend of the brave old gentleman under whom
the Mssissppans gained immortal renown: So are we
all but this is far from being his advocate for the pres
dency.
In the political canvasses which Col Davis has made,
man took holder ground in favor of democratic
measures. On all the questions-the tariff, currency,
distribution, internal improvements, graduation Of the
price OF the public lands annexatonon each and ALL, he
is and with him who goes farthest. Moreover, he
is advocate of the convention system in proof of
which, heard him say in the last presidential canvass,
that with others, he awaited anxousy to hear the result
OF the Baltimore convention, and, believing that Mr. Van
Buren, would be the nominee he prepared to make
speech in his favor, soon should be known that
he was the choice OF the convention With what zeal he
entered upon the when 1t was known that Col
Polk had received the nomination. and with what feryd
eoquence and convincing augmentation he proclaimed
and defended the democratic doctrines, is known the
whole State How Gen. Taylor stands in reference to
those measures of which Col Davis is the unfnchng
advocate we do not know; and intimate and confiden
ta the military relations have been between the Gen
eral and Col Davis, we doubt very much whether the
latter, even now, could say what the political principles
of the former are
Well known as Col Davis's political creed is, we
should perhaps fail to correct the whole into which
our contemporary by mal-niomation has been led, did
we not add that glorious the military services of Mis-
ssspps hero have been he could not have received the
him. had Gov. Brown not been fully satisfied of his I'M
Welding devotion to the democratic cause. By this
sertion we are not be understood that inquiry was in
stuted in regard to Col Davss position by the governor
No. no. The characters OF the apponer and the appointed
are above that; suspicion side would have been
as ungenerous it would have been unjust toward the
other Gov Brown is too sterling democrat to appoint
any man of doubtful position, Senator in Congress
