"NATcHEZ MEETINe.-CoALTIoN.--The OBJ
jects which the aristocrats Of Natchez have so
assidiOusly labored for some time past has been
recently accomplished. At late meeting in
this city q grand coalition was formed between
the old 'alien and sedItion law federalits,
headed by Col. Adam L. Bingaman, the Null
lifers, headed by Chancellor QUITMAN, and
the renegade Jacksoni,es, headed by Col. W.
kins. This many-headed monster, or party, if
you please, have found a new principle in
chemistry, by which they can make oil and
water mix most tremendously together. TC

Wasbington,) Mey hare giren Il Me venerable
name OF WHIG-nAvE STYLED THEMSELVES
Wires, recommended The formation Of A WIG
PARTY, and the getting UP Of a Whig Coausa-
Eon.'
After giving a history of Col. Bingaman and
Col, Wilkins, the Mississippian proceeds to
speak Of the Chancellor, and says of him:
"The latter gentleman NEVER WAS A JACK
SON MAN. He was a seGlous advocate Of John
Q. Adams, and, cfcourse, 0fhis way Of thinking
on the subjects Of the tariff, internal Improve
ments by the-generng government, The United
States Bank. and constructive powers; and Of late
years has become true South Carolina Null.

= These are the gentlemen who intend
leading public sentiment in Mississippi, under
the name Of Whigs."
In the Missiasippian of May %, 1884, there
is an article about the Notification Conven-
ton which had assembled at this place on the
Monday (the l9thO preceding, which is a curl
osity in it's way. 1t is signed 'the Spy in Jack
son. and occupies three columns in small type
in that paper.
This writer, after ridiculing, in Language
which we will not copy, the oratorical efforts
of Chancellor Quitman, says:
"Upon the whole, his honor the Chancellor
is ce1Ainly the y suding spirit Of the conven-
ton, ma is so recognised in that body"
After speaking of the ChanCellor's pronun-
citation, &C., and the christening Of the party
by the name of the States Rights Party the
writer asks:
"Who does not know that his honor, the
Chancellor, was a John Quincy Adams pOliti-
clan a few years since? Who does not know
that he was a furious advocate Of the tariff
until recently? Who does not know that,
even more; he, and, in fact, the whole band
Of Nulliiers, rag, tag and bObtail, condemned
The removal Of The depOatos, and desired their
restoration?" .la.i afEn
