Democratic Stamping.

Gov. SHANNON and Col. G. w. McCooK,
paid the democracy Of our town visit on
Tuesday last, and at night, in the court house,
spoke TO not rery large assembly, concerning
the wcighty matters involved in the approaching
presidential election. COL McCook opened tho
ball with running review Of the whig candi.
dates who were placed before the Philadelphia
Convention for nomination. We must say the
Col. appeared to have pretty high opinion of
them alI,-Mr Clay was the bold advocate Of
Wing measures-whose opposition TO Slavery
was we'll known to every man in the country
-(By the way Mr.. CIay's opposition TO slavery
as, we recolect the matter, was stoutly denied
by the Liberty party in l844-stiII, they might
have known his opposition to t.) Mr. Web
s,er was noticed as "the great exponent of the
Constitution, Gen. Scott was described as
"the great Captain of the age"-dlslinguished
for his PATRIOTISM his vaor, and his military
science, and we'll known 10 be Whig, or, as
he styled HIMSELF said the Col. "nolhing but a
poor Whig;" Gen. Taylor was "bravo man.
an n"honest man," 'good old man." "a Whig-
but not an ultra Whig." Then came the ques-
ton, why was Taylor nominated. This the
Col. answered by saying, it was because he was
a Shareholder, and therefore known te be in ia.
vor of the extension Of Slavery. Yes said the
Col. in triumphant tones, he is the owner ofhun
dreds of SIaves-his mansion is surrounded with
his negro cObins-his farm yields him hundreds
of bales of cotton, all Of which he argued was
evidence of his being in favor Of the extension
of slavery. Mr.. Clay though a Shareholder
resident in Slave State, his house surrounded
with negro cabins--the Col. had just said was
we'll known 10 every man in the country, to be
ODD osed TO the eIienSion of slavery, but Gen.
Taylor because he owns slaves must as conSe'
ouence be in favor Of the extension OF slavery!
This was intended for argument, and for argu'
ment we suppose it must pass, Tor verify IN our
opinion, it is too shallow for sophistry.
But YOU are told said the Col. that Gen. Tay-
Ior has said that he would not veto Bill Contai-
ming the principles ofthe Wlmot PrOviso-'this'
said he, SIS lie, it originated with the father OF
lies-they who tell this, would have you believe
a lie that you may be damned We don't know
what name in rhetoric would apply to this pas
sage. Itsounded TO our ears somewhat like q
Nv Wellerism." The Wings do say that this
pledge originated with Gen. Taylor, Col. Nc
Cook says, sit originated with the father OF lies
Well if it did so originatewe think the Col. may
have the means of knowing the fact. But we
insis, that i. did originate with Gen. Taylor.

DEMOCRATIC TESTIMONY.

At a Locoioco meeting held at Raymond
/ Miss, on the Gath Of September, Col. Jefferson
Davis paid the following beautiful tribute to Gen
Taylor. 1t is much TO be regretted that such
men should confess the obligations Of party tc
be paramount to those Of patriotism. Sill the
remarks will be read with interest, as they con.
tain the free offering Of a soldiers heart, and
the testimony Of witness who speaks not from
idle report, but from personal knowledge and
appreciation Of Gen. Taylor's qualiIies:--PiAS.
Gdzeiie.
lie ran over some of the prominent measures
Of public policy in which no took an interest
during the late session of Congress--spoke in
terms Of severe condemnation concerning the
"defoclion" of Benton and Houston on the Ore
gon bil-said nothing about Polk--gave out
that the Northern Democrats were no longer
worthy 10 be called "alies of the South" and
he should never again speak of them as such,
and came at last, with evident reluctance, TO
the Presidential contest lie said if any one
expected him TO speak evil Of Gen. Taylor they
would be disappointed. lie knew no evil Of
the old hero, and spoke of him as one Of the
purest aud nOblest men the world had ever
seen. The Colonel seemed greatly moved in
speaking Of Gen. Taylor, and his euogy on the
old man was beyond all question the finest we
ever heard. 1t was received with lhundcrs of
involuntary applause. lie referred 10 the kind
ness aud almost paternal regard shown by Cen
TayIurto The MissiSsippans underhs command
and was again interrupted by a storm Of cheers.
Tie suid the old General stood godfather to the
sons of Mississippi when, amid the war and
smoke Of the fight, they were baptized in blood
on the heights Of Buena Vista--and was ugain
compelled TO pause by hurricane Of applause.
lie said that during the progress of the battle,
after he, (Col. Davis) was wounded, Gen. Tay-
lor came and sat down by him--the firm deter.
mnalon on his brow seemed struggling with
an expression Of deep sorrow for the brave fell
lows who had fallen, and those who were yet
n bite the dust; when on being inerrogaled as
to his purpose, he replied, while the fire of an
unconquered will cleaned in his eye--"My
wounded are behind me, and DW nerer pass
them alive" About this time, the crowd be-
came so excited that they were almost ready
TO carry the Colonel from the stand. But he
was not done yet. He said that, after all, Gen.
Taylor, in a political point OF view, must be re-
gurdcd as identified with the party which had
nominated him. and that therefore, he would be
obliged to vote for Cass and Butler.
Following up his remarks, he denounced Van
Buren, and expressed The hope and confidence
that Cass would prove more honest than the
suge of Lindenwud Throughout his speech
at every turn, he confessed in substance, that
nothing but his allegiance to the party which
had elected him United States Senator, restrain
ed him from voting for. Gen. Taylor. lie sab
stanuay admitted thai his duty 10 his party
was more imperative than his duty 10 his cour-
try.

REASONS WHY GEN. TAYLOR SHOULD BE PRES
IDENT.-Ile will be bound by the Constitution
and by the Constitution as it is expounded and
explained by tho Judiciary of the United States.
He will be bound to take for his guide in his
administration of the National Government, the
rules and doctrines established and held by our
first Presidents.
lie will enter office without pledges, that he
may be free to carry out the wishes Of the pGo-
pie as expressed by their Representatives.
lie will not attempt to influence the action OF
Congress, by foroshadowing his own peculiar
notions on mootod questions Of doubtful policy,
further than required by the Constitution; nor
will he permit his Cabinet TO do so.
lie will not embarrass the action of the peo-
plo's Representatives, or defeat their will by the
exercise of the Veto power, other Than in cases
of extreme hasly Legislation, or clear violation
Of the Constitution.
lie will not veto orprevent the passage Of laws
passed by Congress, in reference 10 the improve
ment Of rivers and harbors, or any other matter
that consrtutionally belongs to them to settle.
lie will prevent and overthrow all schemes
and plans for The conquest of other countries
or for annexing the lands Of other nations to
these States.
tie will prevent war, because, having truly
toiIed through its desolating walks, and witness
ed It's sad havoc Of the hreside and hearth-stone
of his fellow man, he feels that it is an evil con
stantly to be avoided, unless necessity require!
its existence.
lie will administer the Government faithfully
according to the Constitution. During his Ions
| life Of urduous and trying service he never fail
ed TO perform all his duties we'll and faithfully.
He will prescribe no man for conscientiou;
difference Of opinion; being a lover of liberty
of thought himself, he can afford to tolerate i
in others.
He will, through his great popularity, be ena
bled TO govern our country without the aid of or
pans or irresponsible cabals; but being the Pres
1 ident of the people, 10 them alone he is resPon
s,be for his actions, without a cringing subser
yioncy to platforms, erected 10 misguide, inslea
of informing the public mind.
In addition to these reasons tor the support

him a debt of gratitude for his brilliant milor
services in the latter war. The battles Of Pal

treated IL after 1921, tpeculauyely,l there could

appreciab.e aud calcuiable items, for which
vouchers might have been very readily procured.
But the items Of service and expense, which
formed the basis Of the account with Mr.. Cal
houn, il was impossible to state. Now, in our
judgement, items which cannon be stated ought
not TO be allowed. Peculalion delights in gem
eralilies. Ii never comes down to items or
vouchers.
But we have notonly Mr.. Calhoun's statement
to the effect that there were no vouchers, but
Mr.. Cass's letter, in the same document, sub
slantates the same fact. 81 TAKE THE LIBERTY

From the Picayunc, Oct. 20.

"Tho democratic candidate for Congress for
this district has reason 10 congratulate himself
on the result in this county, when hetakes into
consideration the men and the Infamous means
resored to, to defeat his election. The feds,
having no fears of the election of their ticket
in the county, said nothing of any other candi-
date but Gable; against whom they brought their
every effort 10 bear, fair and foul, aided by the
aposlates Hampson and Litell who, we learn,
are laboring hard against Cass and Butler; yet
they only effected him 25 votes"
Now, | say to the author, that no one ever
told him that | was doing all | could "against
Cass and Butler" 1t is falsehood, cut out of
whole cloth, and is doubly false, for my vote
and all the little influence have shall be given
not against, but for Cass and Butler.
Cable does not congratulate himself on the
result in this county," 1t is to him a bitter
plll; and to the democracy one still more bitter,
as will presently show. And | will also show
that Hampson and Litel are not the only DEM
ocrats who did not vote for Cable, and that In
stead of efFecting him "only rs votes" he was
effected some hundreds.
In 1914 the democracy Of Carroll cast $50
votes for Todd for Governor. In 1848 they
polled for Gable 1926 vote--showing 265, dem
ocrats in the county of Carroll who could nos
be induced to vote for Cable and are equally as
great "traitors" as Hampson and Liuell. That
those democrats are neither dead nor gone
on Journey is shown from the fact that our
verify democratic candidate fer Recorder res
ceiyed them all, and more too at this elsction.
His vote being 1861.
In s44 the Wings polled 1851 for Barley,
In ls48 they only polIed 1896 for Ford, and
still Mason has majority Of 236 over Cable
The average democratic vote in the county is.
1417-Cable polls go votes below the average.
The average Wing vote is 1900, With our vote
of 1890 which we pollsd in 1874, and could
poll again, we could have carried the Congress
man and every county officer, as the highest
Wing vote on any of them, was only loeb
and that for Mason. Nine townships out ofthe.
IA in the county gave msjOri'ies against Cable
including the democratic township OF Centre
