TREAsONABLE DESIGNS!

The Yazoo City Whig charges that there
twas some secret understanding between some
Of the prominent locofoco leaders about the ul-
timate design Of the NashvilIe Convention" and
adds sthat events have trauspired that render
it almost certain, thai men high n authority
IN this State rers prirg to designs against the
peace and harmony Of The Union, 0hich n al-
most any State or nation S0Ould be designated
reasonable"
The Yaaoo Democrat very properly calls on
the gentleman who pennedtha article (mean'
ing we suppose the political editor of that pa
per) to name the persons who entertained these
secret, design the Whig having said that he
spoke "adVisedly."
Ifthe names can he given, let them come
firth, and il they can be given, We hope they
viii be. The Democrat adds: "Wedo not with
to be understood however, as expressing in the
remOtest degree our beliefin the trnth of the
charge. y 1t isa very easy matter to make
grave charges and he who makes them, ought
to be prepared to specify names md to back
it with proof
There is no telling nowadays what is meant
by treason and tyeannabe e designs The con
.titution defines treason to be "levying war
against the United States, or adhering to thei
enc .nies, giving them MD and comforts" nn'
says that these only shall constitute treason
Some ofo Whig journals seem to have al
inventive genius in framing addiiOnaland con
structiye evidences Of treason, altogether un
known to the constitution. Aud strange TO Sh
they always see these reasonable Indication
in their southern friends, and rarely see any
thing to condemn in their northern allies. W
repent our hope that the Wnig will give tn
names of the "LocOloco" traitors, and as
seems disposed 10 enforce the Fignr of the. al
cient English law, in reference to treason, an
$ not to be governed by the two species euumeT
atetI in the constitution; we would remind
that by the same ancient law cOacealmeat
the treason, or t, aitors, amounted to mt'Pn
T on Of treason Of which it will be guilty.

MEETING AT REN TON /.

We see in the Yazoo City Wing "A call for a
"a ing at Benton on Monday last, Of all
those opposed to the appointment by the
Legislature, Of delegates to the Nashville cnI-
yentona II does not profess to oppose the
Nashville convention; but is only n call upon
those who tisapprove Of the acti on Of the Leg
i.lature in electirg delegates to said convent
tion. Well what do they intend to do abon'
n They canuot have the law repealed, tuF
before the next Leg gislature ts, the matter
will have been acted Oh, as the convention
meets in June. So we cannot see amy prac-
ticaI good to be gained BY calling a meeting
to condemn the mode Of appointing delegates;
| il they only meant to censure the Legislature
fOrthe assumption Of power, they might do this
,ust as well any time after June, as before it
Perhaps the more proper time for such an
expression. Of opinion would be during the next
ca iyass, when the mem bers who participated
in the gross usupaiion, present themselves ioI
re-elcction. But perhaps after all, this y onl,
intended as an indirect mode Of opposing tht
Nash Vile Convention. 1t is well the call is I
special and not n general one, that is, only
those favorable to the particular mode Of action
intended to be taken, are invited, O.beTwis'
. they might be votel d1wg.

am democrat, and feel that | am SO rel-
giously as we'll politically. lbeIieVe that
sound oitics and sound religion are con-
genial indeed closely allied. | believe
moreover that democrlcy-our democracy
contains the best system Of politics, the
purest clements Of republicanism now ex-
tant. Believing all this, you would con-
clude at once (and JUSTIFY that would be
loath 10 vote for whlg, even to fll min-
isterialotfice; and so would, but would
sooner vote for good competent wbig iii
he BE- sound on the great southern questiOn)
than General Bell or General anybody, il
he refuses TO submit his claims 10 demo-
cratic convention. Indeed we think it is
high time for him to make Unknown waeth
eT or not he intends 10 inveigh against the
time honored custom one Of the promi-
neut usages ul ur party and the palladium
Of oureHieiency. This is the way marked
out for, and followed by those who ill the
Of her departments Of State, Gov. Quitman
not exceIted whom we all so cheerfully
supported; AMI If General Bell expects hi:
support from the democracy he would d.
we'll 10 lespect their usages. Iagree witt
the Madisonian that "if Governor Quitmar
knew atthe time he gave General Bellth'
appointment, he would be candidate h
showedan unwauanted species of favorii
ism in placing him in an advantageous
position over other candidates." and Gen
Bell certainly showed want Of delcacy
IL accepting the protein; It's an advantag,
that 20 one should desire. We have plen
~ otdemOcTats who stand in no need o
exe6ufiye in6Ifnce TO give passport to pub
lie favOi, who are willing to accept the nom
iOaiiOn at the hands Of a convention. /
General Bell should be the nominee vel
and good, il not, in these diggius we'll g,
for the nominee or he who agIees so to be
OF some clever whig; welntend organicall,

a more favorable version Of General Bells

MI. Brooks, Of Yalobusha oouHty, whig

lid not have the pleasure Of making his ac-
ouaintance, he seems tOhave that facility of
making acqnaintanocs aud ease Of manner 20
essential to the canyasser f0r public favor.
The other whig candidate, Mr.. Quackenbos'
Of YnzoO, is an exceedingly clever fellow,
quite gentleman in every respect and would
no doubt make very good officer, and as his
Rhig friends say he is a nephew Of Gen. Quit
man. They seem to have very high opinion
Of the merits of Gen. QIitman just now as it
seems to reject itself on his nephew, Mr..
Qackenboss. This is carrying the nepotism
(nephewism) argument tolerably far. 1t Is
wonder that these whig Journals who see SO
much to admire in the nephew, did not last fall
express some Of the admiration for the uncle
But seriously they need not bringup any such

STATE UNIVERSITY

The Wing Star AZ Oxford calls the atten-
ion Of the press to the condition Of our State
University, located at that place. and 'nyokes
its aid iu mrUusingsthe public to the Importance
Of sus aiming an institution having strong claims
upon its confidence. 15.a
We cordially agree with the suggestion, and
hope TINT every pressin the State will contrib
ute its effortstowar fostering an institution
SO literally endowed, md SO eminrnily tortu-
nate in tie selection Of able and scientific
teachers. The Professors are generally men of
the very highest rank in their respective tie
partments, and distinguished alike for their
attainments and their spotlesS purity oI private
life.
We trust the disposition TO send of our
youth to mort Aern colleges is now undergoing
a change.
A yeu,ig man intending toreside in the south
should be reared up in the midst Of or pecu'
[liar institutions, and not transpantetE ia early
youthto remote regions e't' rtaining seIItlIhehu
alien to the land Of his nativity.
Whenthds educared in northern ati
tudes they too often return to their souther
!, homes, with an, thing else than southern sen
timents and feelings Let us then cherish with
III our own State an institution every wa
worthy Of our support, and educate our yOun
men in our own borders where they will leaV
their college walls with southern sentiment
southern feelings, and southern prei'iaice',
they may be sotermed.
