Hon. T. J. STEWART OF WILKINSON.
At a meeting of Adams County
"Southern Rights Association" held
in Natchez on the 7th ult., the follows
ing resolution was unanimously pass
ed:
"Resolved. that the Hon. t. Jones
Stewart, of Wilkinson County, has the
respect and confidence of this occasion
and we would be gratiied to see him
return to the Senate"
In hearty response to the sentiment
of his resolution, we would say amen
Col. Stewart is the man for the South,
firm and independent, eloquent aud
warm in the defence of rights most
dear. to US and essential to our just
weight and power in a great Union Of
| States, in many of which the popular
opinion is adverse to our Interests, and
has already destroyed Southern equal
ity in the balance of power. We no
longer stand rs equals. face to face,
in the national councils, and the swift
revolutions of time ale only invoked
by the enemies of our slave institution
to blot out every guarantee of that
species of property from the constitu.
ton of the United States, the only ba~
sis of our national union. A majority
of two.thirds in both houses of Con-
gress with the same INSCRIPTIONS EN-
nifty now exhibited by the majority
which passed the insulting and iicti-
tious so-called Compromise Bills"
would Immediately sweep the consti>
tuition of the United States from under
us, and leave us at the mercy OF North
ern cut throats, thieves and d~isorgani>
sers.
Hon. r. Jones Stewart is the mar
for the occasion. lie is a tried vete>
ran in the cause of the South. Ever
on the alert, with a vigilance as untir>
ing ms that of "a hclmsaan in a stormy
sea with a thrilling and convincing
eloauence that searches deep into the
impure motives Of the would be Un'
inonists ; with manners as bland and
mild as his denunciations are seathine
and terrible !; with u weight of person.
al character that no II can impugn
and with experience in our state coun
ellis which makes him a slower o
strength" we know no man we woul(
rather elect over the Wing submission
or self styled union party candidate
A. X. Farrar, than Col. Stewart.
He loves the South and her deares
interests so well, that he has sacrificed
his party predictions on her shrine
He is our tried and well beloved cham
pion.
