A beautiful tribute to Gen. Pierce

Below we publish just and handsome trib-
ute to Gen. Pierce. taken from the columns of
the New York Journal of Commerce The still,
small voice of commendaton from this respec
table whig paper, is heard with delight amid the
storm of calumny and detraction which assails
our noble leader:
:" All who have with an impartial eye observ-
ed the conduct of the nominee of the democratic
party for the office of President must hRYe been
struck with his unobtrusive and modsst course,
and not less with the high and manly spirit
evinced whenever called upon to act or to speak.
These traits of character are rare in public men,
and especially among those who, bred to other
pursuits, quit them in time of war for service
III the field. They are ever associated
with the highest qualities of mind and of heart,
and win for their possessor the respect and es-
TEEN which Gen. Pierces friends so generally
and so warmly feel towards him. We were
lately near his residence in the Granite Hills, and
should personally have paid our respects to him
but that it might have been misreprasented.-
We heard, however, not only from his political
friends but also from his political opponents,
his neighbors and acquaintances, the most friend
ly and respectful, and often the most enthusiast
ic testimony of his high and noble qualities
Even in the time of Judge Woodbury. it is CON
ceded that General Pierce had command of the
State, but that he never used his power and in
fuence for himself, as he preferred ever to live
among his neighbors as private citizen, enjoy
ing the honors awarded to him on all hands as
the head of the bar of New Hampshire. His re-
signation as senator in Congress, as an officer of
the army when service could 40 longer be rem
dered, and his refusal to accept the office of At
torney General and the gubernatorial chair Of
his State, are acts in harmony with the univer-
sal opinion held towards him by his neighbors
and friends. Gen. Pierce, however, by no act
or procurement of his, and from the spontane-
GUS action of the Democratic Conyention-such
it unquestionably was, for we We're present and
The Yazoo Democrat., 1852-09-01

wltnessed-has become the nomince of the great
party which it represented for the presidential
Office, and instantly his whole career is examin-
cd for some spot or blemish on which calumny
may exPatiatc until the elections have decided
the question now before the country. A career
which was opened under the teaching of an am
cestry which had fought and bled in the coun-
trys service in the great battle Of the revolution
an ancestry famous for its high and patriotic
tone and bearing, was beginning which could
by no possibility terminate in the dishonor which
party nalignity would now attach to the name
of Gen. Pierce. Throughout the war in Mexico
he acted with courage; and if he erred at ALL ii
was on the side Of imprudence and unnecessary
exposure. The spontaneous tribute Of General
Scott, paid to General Pierce when the nomina-
ton Of the former was announced at Washing
ton by an assembled crowd proves incontesta-
bly, that the sentimentof of the army towards Gen
Pierce was such as ever attends soldier who
has courageously performed his duty in battle
The name and fame of those who have rendered
patriotic service arc dear TO the American peo
pie, and should be protected from unjust attack.

mass MEETING.

1t viii be seen by reference to the proceedings
of the Central Democratic Association, which
we publish in another column, that the democ-
racy intend making grand rally on the SEW
ENTH and EIGHTH of October Some of the
most distinguished orators of the nation are ex-
pected to be in attendance. The invitation is
general and preparations will be made % accom-
modate an immense crowd. Hons. S. A. Doug
las of Illinois, J. B. Weller Of California and
Pierre Soule of Louisian are among those who
are expected to address the meeting It will be
perhaps the largest mass meeting ever assem-
bled in the State, and we hope to see Yazoo full
" represented ON the OCCASION
The Yazoo Democrat., 1852-09-01

We publish to-day, the letter of Gen. Pierce
to Mr. DE Leon, which puts to rest forever. the
abolition SANDER In regard to his New Boston
speech We were perfectly satisfied of the fall
sity of the report of his speech made by free-soil
sheets, before reading this letter The history
OF the man-his opposition to Atwood upon
the ground that he opposed the fugitive slave
blil-the concurrent testimony of more than a
hundred respectable witnesses, proved beyond a
doubt, that the language attributed to him in
this speech was false, and was gotten up for the
80 Ithern pe0I le, who held him in high esteem for
ms constant x able defence of their constitution
al rights. But this base effort to sully the spot
less reputation Of national patriot has proved
aborlVe, and the force of such efforts will recoil
upon those unscrupulous partisans who en-
gage in the low and dirty work Of detraction.-
The whig oratois generally have too much self
respect to reiteate the language of an abolition
editor, when it has been proved TO be false by
lrrelngable testimony, but we cannot say the
same of whig editors. They blazon forth in
large capitals, report of Gen. Pierce's speech
which they are bound to believe from the esti-
mony, is false. But they care not, if it will
make vote for their candidate, whether it be
false or true. Gen Pierce with his characteris-
tic frankness, replies in full to the letter from
Mr.. De Leon, and says emphatically that the re.
port IS an entire misrepresentation" This we
think will be perfectly satisfactory to his bitter
est political opponents, and we expect to see the
whig press, prompted by selfrespect if the love
of truth has no weight with them, haul down
from the head of their columns the report they
have taken from abolition papers that have al
ways been bitterly opposed to Gen. Pierce.
The letter will be found ON the first page.
The Yazoo Democrat., 1852-09-01
Extra session Of the Legislature.

1t seems to be the general opinion, that the
question will arise, whether or not a United
States Senator shall be elected by this body. If
the Senate could consistently with the position
it took last winter, go into the election, we
would be rejoiced to see it do so. We are
aware that it will be difficult to select Senator
that viii be acceptable to he entire democracy.
Each section 1--WE speak in referenne to the diyi-
sion which heretofore existed, and which we
hope is now thoroughly healed) has its choice,
and it is impossible for the choice of either to
receive the united support of the party. Prin-
cipia non honai7les has ever been motto with
the democracy and it should be strictly adj
hered to. We should not endanger the sacred
principles OF party by trying to crafty our
attachment and friendship to particular men,
If the Legislature should determine to 90 into
1he election, and our party have a caucus, which
they should have by all means, and there is a
name presented, which is likely to produce dis
cord it should be promptly withdrawn. We
know of no aspirant for the position who would
in our opinion suffer his name used in the eau
Gus, il he thought by so doing he would destroy
the harmony Of the party. There is now per
feet fraternization in the party, and in a caucus
it would not be right for southern rights demo-
Gratis, because they are largely in the majority to
force their choice upon the minority, nor can
Union democrats expect to have their favorite
nominated, who is so Objectionable to the ma
iority. Hence we say. that the claims of indi-
viduals should not interfere with the harmonious
action of the party. But the caucus should
meet with the determination to act in such man.
ner as to meet with the appreciation of the en-
tire party.
