Barton Esq, of North Mississippi, Il
is notorious that Barton and his friends
the Democrats of North Mississinni
made him Senator. And the SEQUEL Of
the joke was that Barton was abopt
the first man in the State who met
with him in lS49, on his return from
Washington, and gave him n of the
most scathing rebukes that was ever
inflicted on mortal man.
AS to his present position with the
Democratic party of that State, pre-.

The Legislature gave instructions to
