EXECUTIVE CHAMBER,
jackson, Oct. 18th, 1851.


|. jackson, Oct. 18th, 1851.
Ncssrs Borhazqle d, Jones:
GENTLEMEN The resignation Of Colonel
jeff Davis, as a Senator Of the U. States,
from the State of Mississippi, has given me
an opportunity to exercise the power to APP
point, temporarily, an incumbent for that of:
fee. Many inquiries have been made whcth-
er | viii exercise the power. To satisfy all
enquirers, take this method of declaring
that I will not appoint successor to Col.
Davis, or to Gen. Foote, if he should resign
during the period for which I shall exercise
the powers of Governor exercise those
powers, not by the popular will, but by virtue
of my position as President of the Senate,
and will in few.weeks retire FROM the execu-
tive department of the State.
Gen, Foote one of the Senators of the U.
States from this State, candidate for the Of
flee of Governor, has publicly declared that
he will not resign his seat in the Senate, be-
cause he believes viii appoint disantonist
to fill his place, and that he will place his
commission in the hands of the Convention,
which is to assemble at the Capitol on the ID
Monday of next month. What that conyen-
ton has to do with his commission, l am alta
loss to conceive; and I am but slightly con.
cerned at the slanderons charges which that
parsonage is in the habit OF venting at his pc
litical opponents. My object Is, to apprizc
the people of Mississippi that do not intend
to exercise the appointing power, BY filling
the vacancy occasioncd by tic resignation O
Col. Davis, or a vacancy TO be oceasioned BY
the resignation of Gen. Foote, if such thing
(not very probably should ever happen
Ny reasons. for not exercising this power arr
briefly these: hold the Executive Office no
by the popular vote and will; ina few week.
| shall surrender it. In the meantime a pop
ular election viii be held, by which the PEG
pie will declare the political popular will
That will so declared should be truly reflect
ed BY all the political agents of the State
My successor in the Executive chair will hay,
ample time, after the election, to appoint
Senator or Senators, rejecting truly the pop
ular feeling, and truly representing the PEG
pie Of the State, until the Legislature shall
make choice. There istherefore no neces
sity at present for my exercising the power 0
appointment, and shall not do 50 unless
special session of the Senate of the Unite,
States shall be ordered, which is not yer,
probable.
Respectfully, your friend,
JOHN T. fGIJION.

ALABAMA Manufactures.


We were present yesterday, with large
number of others, at the exhibition of the
beautiful prize Engine, constructed at the
Montgomery Manufacturing Company's
works, and designed for the coming Fair at
Macon, Ga. This is the scUenty-seucnth steam
engine manufactured at this Extensive and en-
terprising establishment within the last two
years, in addition to vast amount of heavy
forging and casting, in every variety of iron
work-thc power of It's machinery and fix
lures, and skill of It's artifccrs enabling it to
accomplish all descriptions of iron and brass
casting, in superior style, from the heaviest
steamboat shafts, mill wheels, and engines of
Ia 100-horse power, to the most delicate orna-
mental work known to the art The engine
referred to, intended for the Fair, is about 40
horse power, ami constructed the iron part
wholly of Alabama iron The heavy cast.
lings are from most cxquisitcly wrought pat
terms, and the general finish, polish and ac-
curacy of the machine unsurpassed by any
work of the kind we have seen The orna
mental work ism good taste, and most elab-
orately finished. It is in all respects most
beautiful and admirable specimen Of the art
land deserves, and we trust VIII receive, the
premium. Wehave noidea that it can be ex
celled in any quarter
The Montgomery Manufacturing company
/ is organised with a capital of $3.50 ,000-cm
Iploys one hundred and fifty workmcn, anc
has an extended reputation for the variety
and excellence of Its work. The enterprising
Company are entitled to the thanks of tn,
State for the example they have set in invest
ing capital in.this important branch of indus
! try, and for the skilI~an energy which la
ensured it success. Asis expressed in a mot
to engraved on the Engine: those are tn
truest friends Of the Soutlpwho most encour

The Rcrolut1on IN lIerico-S Surrender Of

The Steamship Yacht, Capt. Thompson,
says the n. o. Picayune, arrived this morn
ing from the Rio Grande. She brought
1858 in specie on freight. By this arr
val We have a copy of the Rio Bravo of the
9Th inst, published at Brownsville It APP
pears that the revolutionary forcess are again
in motion. The Bic. Bravo says
eve hear, on the arrival Of q special cou-
rier last night, that detachment Of the
troops Of Col. Cavajal, two days ago, entered
the city Of Reynosa, and demanded Of the
Government forces its Immediate surrender.
After some hesitation, the demand was com,
piled with, and one cannon and considera-
bic supply Of ammunition, provisions, and
small arms, fell into tho hands Of the vic.
tors. This was bloodless triumph, and
shows conclusiyely that the people every
where are in favor Of ibis Revolutionary
movement. The Government troops meet
with cold looks d hard knocks wherever
they turn.

embryo, their peculiar tendencies scarcely de-
/ velopcd their revolutionary trials and trumphs

will yield somewhat in the conflict of opinion and

the sway of republican government over a vast
Wilderness to another ocean, aud Proportionately
advanced their civilization and national great

3. That in this spirit we have maturely consid-

rejection of the proposition to exclude slavery
from the Mexican territories, and to abolish it in
