Our CandidatcA.

We would not in ordinary times, nor un.
! der ordinary circumstances, take part in
our local elections; but when the honor of
| the State. the interest of Texas and the
South for all time TO come, is involved in
/ the issue, we should be- recrcan, to our
trust and unworthy OF the confidence of
our fellow citizens, If we should remain ii.
lent. We believe this is the issue present.
ed, and asa faithful sentinel upon the watch.
| tower and as an honest man, we must speak
out our sentiments, cost what it may, DR..
J. TAYLOR, J. J. kgNNrp,, and l.. +,
Wrcr,LL, are the men of oYr choice, They
are in favot of sustaining the honor and in.
terest of the State, in opposition to n policy
that must meet the CONFORMATION Of every
right thinking man. We attack no mans
motives ascribe no unworthy consid.
erations to the conduct Of those who differ
from us-but looking at results. we must
condemn, while we show the fallacy of
their opinions. We call upon the friends Of
Texas and of Southern rights to stand a;
their posts, and 10 do their duty. In the
language of distinguished writer of the
revolution, "Ihe summer soldier and the
sun shine politician may bask for u while in
the beams of popular favor, but the tried
patriot, who is trpo to his country. and to
,nr a. In h..atr al n,l1
the thanks Of man and woman" Lee, US
throw aside all party tics-all personal pre-.
dilcctions-and unite upon principles whose
intrinsic merit recommend them to our best
feelings.
Mr.. Taylor and Mr.. Kennedy are gen.
tlcmcn who are both well aud favorably
known, aside from their political views.
Of Mr. Wiglall we perhaps might say the
same thing. But if his claims in this re.
spect were less than we think they are, there
are other considerations, Of paramount
character, which recommend him to the
favorable consideration of his fellow citi.
zcns. lie is bold, honest, and consistent
and, in this respect, is just the man for the
times lie would speak his sentiments if
the whole State were to rise up in oppos.
ton he would meet danger, no matter
who might ialtcr This is not the language
OF ilaicry; for we have no reason to f!attcr
Mr.. Wigiall, or any other man. Bat, we
express what every body knows who is ac
quaintcd with the man. We may 90 fur.
ther and say that there is not more devo.
ted friend Of the South throughout our wide
conGnes--one who would sacrifice more in
defence of our rights.
Mr.. ". is no aspirant for office, and we
feel assured that he desires no station. II
he goes TO the Legislature he does it
through the urgent solicitation Of his friends
and with the hope that he may be useful
lie will go at the sacrifice, largely, of his
private interest, with no intention to remain
longer than is absolutely necessary.

Excite mcnt in Olmcr.

We have received communication of n
friend from Gilmcr signed "Omicron,' aud
have obtained through private sources, also,
an account of public feeling in Gmcr,
and of recen, events in that quarter
1t seems from what we can learn tha, the
friends of pearcc's Bill, among the most
prominent of whom were some of the wire.
working politicians of Marshall, made n
call on Judge l.. d. Evans to address the
people Of tlmer. The official position Of
Judge t., his acknowledged talents and
besides, the absence of those whom the
opposition have learned most to dread. led
them to believe tina, change in public sen.
siment might be effected by little skilliul
management.
On Monday Judge Evans. dressed the
people IN a very lengthy harrangue, in
which, from what we can learn, he failed
entirely to meet the questions at issue lie
denounced, without stint those who were
opposed to Pcarce's Bill and said they
were a band of disunionsts lie was re-.
piled TO by Mr.. =. MrRRAu, Young and
promising lawer of Marshall, in {, speech
distinguished by solid argument aud patri.
otto feeling. Mr. =, is said To have gained
great credit by this~pccch and to have civ.
on himself an euviable character for talent
and decision of character. lie was rsplied
to By NJ VI. J. HALL, who was in turn
taken uIAby Col J. &. Everett, of jefferson
who handled him with severity. Mr.. Tur.
, ner of Henderson was next called on, and
was replied to in II very effective and sa,i.
ricaI%peech by d. W FIELD, ESD.
Thus ended the attempt of the opposition
TO deceive the people of upslur in relation
to our public affairs II was total failure.
We understand that public feeling is large.
y against them, and their course. And
one thing is worthy Of note. The LADIES
of upshur are where they are ever to be
found, on the side Of honor and patriotism.
On Tuesday Col. WrcrALL arrived at Gil.
mer, and the speaking was renewed David
Stinson appeared for Pcarces Bill. lie
was replied to by the COL, in one of his
most effective and whitening speeches,
When our inlormants left the tide Of public
feeling was strongly in opposition to Mr..
Pcarce and his Texas allies.
