The Yazoo Democrat. (Yazoo City, Miss.) 1844-18??, 1850-11-20

have case here that will forever put
quietus on all future attempts to prove that
men can be so great political knaves as to
debar them from the good society of the
country. New York state wings have Ia.
ken up the New York city wings, condem-
ned rascality. "Sim. Draper and Bill Sew
ard" are pair ofthe prettiest 'scaped birds
that ever went in sEoes. We can state
almost anything in this city, and can swal
low about as much knavery as any place,
always excepting Syracuse; but the Draper |
and Glenworth frauds we could not sWal- |
low. Such barefaced rascality-such open
unblenching perjury-as was committed |
aud recommitted within the knowledge Of
if not instigated by VIM ii. Seward, were
100 much for New York city. New York
state, we are ashamed to say, swallows
it.
But to Sims mercantile relations He
is, as is we'll known, a dry goods auction
eer, and sells large quantity Of goods that
go directly to the southern market. In
tact, were it not for the South he could not
| live; if the Southern trade should be Gu:
off, Simeon's resources and means for car
rying on his abolition schemes would be
livery much curtailed. Five percent, os tn
money a southern merchant or planter pays
for carpet goes into Sims pocket Five
per cent of the money paid for silk dress,
or shawl, FIVE per cent, on the cloth which
! is inthe coat or pantaloons; FIVE per cent, of
tie cravat money, the gloves aud the ribons
which trim the bonnets. If these articles
are bought of an abolition iobbet or. :etail-
er, fifteen per cent, more goes TO the abo-
l.tior cause 1t is divided around, two
per cent, to the Tribune, three per cent, to
the Courier, three to an abolition religious
paper, three to the society, aud the rest to
build countrys eats and pay expense ofCun.
away slaves.
This is the way the North makes the
South turn the grind-stone to grind their
own noses. Don: be startled Mr.. South
ern Press, the Day-Book has not half done.
Before we are through with this subject
we will show you how you arc deceived
by your own merchants, who i'll times OF
grea abolition excitement, when the south
ern people have refused 10 buy goods that
are bought Of aboluio"ists, have their plil~
made out IN the name of the clerks, and
show them az evidence that the goods
were not purchased of obnoxious New
Workers. We have seen a great deal c.
deception and rrjckery il orr day, and have
leone 10 the c9u tusion that It Is about as
well to show it up now.
Yesterday the following explanations
land corrections were made III the Day
Book. VIII! we trust will be satisfactory
l.o the parties Interested as we'll as &c

Mr,sns. ueNRy SNlru i townsend say
D that we have done them injustice III an art
+ Gle upon "New York Merchants and the
, SOUTH" We are sorry foe this, but Learn
!. with pleasure chat they are not only nj
aboltionists, but good friends OF the Soutl
/. and in favor Of giving justice to all section
= OF the country. We did not say they wer
q abOlitiOaiStS, but that they gave their s!av
q labor profits for the support of such paper
g as the Courier and Enquirer aud the Fri
:. bune, papers which have done more to ere
v ate the present free soil or niggar part
y than any others in this State. Most c
"a these southern firms advertise in the Courie
II and Tribune, when they know that the
% are the adherence of the South. A south
/. eruer woul no more have the Tribune i
n his family than he would Garrison's Libe
II ator and the Courier and Enquirer al
~ held IN about the same estimation. In fac
: there are but few New York papers take
,e at the South. The Herald has the largs
ne circulation, and the Journal OF CommerC
IN aud Day Book the next largest. On a.
Nv Count of independence and boldness, tt
Is Day Book is probably sought after and col
nd led from more by southern papers than an
IS other, while right here among these meFcI
he ants, who are growing fat on southern pro
n its, the:e are some who not only WI
or not take it or advertise III it, but oppose
