Southern Cas- Men and Northern .4Lol;tionists
leagueing against Gen. TAILOR.

The Natchez Courier exposes the aoepcv hv
which copies of the bills of sale of Negroes pur-
chased by Gen. Taylor found their way into the
Northern papers. They were obtained from tho
Clerks office of the Jefferson County Probat Court
by Cass men and 1tfice holders. The individuals
concerned in 1t are, according to the Courier, }
Samuel and William Stamps of jackson, Richard
Edward of Natchez, j. Homer Smyth of the New
Orleans Custom-house, and John Marshall, Clerk
in the Treasury Department, Washington. This
Is indeed a small business-and worse than small
'of southern men to be engaged in-Ther fidelity
