to be that which prudence and sound discretion dc
tates.
Col. r. DAVIS, of Monroe county, we perceive has
been mentioned by several of our contemporaries,
candidate before the Convention for the State at large
ON the Congressional ticket. We understand, at the
instance of large number of friends in the counties
Of Marshall, Tippah, Lafayette Tishamingo, Itawam-
ba, Pontotoc Calhoun, Chckasaw, Yallobusha, Car
ROLL Choctaw and Monroe, he has permitted his name
to be used in Convention candidate for that place
This, of course, makes him a candidate before the
State Convention only, and the county conventions
will instruct their delegates throughout the State, tc
present the of COL Davis, that of some Other
worthy gentleman, a candidate for that office.
1t is needless for us to say word in regardto Col
Davis-he is well and favoraby known in this section
of the State, as gentleman, and a man of very
marked ability both a lawyer and politician. W.
know that can be selected, who will give more
personal popularity to the ticket, the choice
of the Convention fall upon who will carry int

State Convention,

Since prepared our article upon the position of
PARTIES have become thoroughly convinced that
an early Convention is demanded as means of per-
fecting reorganization in the State, upon basis
satisfactory to every who desires the success OF
democratic principles rather than the mere elevation
of men. In view of this, and without entering into
explanation of the reasons which guide us to this
conclusion, we suggest the first Monday (2nd) in May
the time of meeting at Jackson, for the purpose OF
selecting candidates for the State
We make this suggestion at the instance of many

Congressional Candidates.

The Legislature at the late session failed to reds-
trct the State and the authorities are forced bv this
failure extend their prescribed powers or the State
will be without its full Congressional strength allow
ed by the apportonmet act of 1851. Our population
gives us five members of Congress, while the State is
laid off into but four districts 1t is to be presumed
that the Governor will issue writs for the election of
five members of Congress, but whether the whole FIVE
will be voted for by all the people of the State without
regard to the old limits of the districts whether but
one of the five will be voted for, is point we can
not decide But thing is clear and it is this that
whatever course is pursued the four districts as they
now stand should be permitted, without any extrane-
GUS Influences to select, each for ITSELF its candi-
date. 1t will not be good policy to throw the select
ion of the five candidates for Congress before State
Convention even though the five to be voted for
by the general State system. Each district should
put forward its man. and the Convention for the
State may should it be deemed proper endorse the
lection of each district IF this course is pursued we
feel assured, that it will result in producing harmony
The State Convention will have discharged its duty
only when il has selected full State ticket, and one

John Sitton, of Columbus, Mississippi has taken
measures to secure patent for the above. This ma
chine, which the inventor denominates the wheel
wrights Assistant, is intended to perform the vari-
operations of boring the hub, forming the lemons
and shoulders of the spokes, and also hoing the fell
oes. An important improvement is in the of two
circular plates. lying the other and capable OF
revolving These plates serve for regulating the dis
ances between the spokes, the top carries the
hub while being bored, and the wheel when the ten
ons are being cut. This arrangement, when fixed for
boring, &c, is held in position by pins acted by
springs. The auger carriage back and forth on
an adjustable way bed, which can be fixed to suit
differentiated wheels the carriage is made advance
by means of cord and weight, and is drawn rapidly
back by operating treadle The tool for cutting the
lemons and shoulders of the spokes is of peculiar
shape, and acts perfectly than other TOOLS both
for cutting and also regulating the depth of the lemons
and also for squaring the shoulders. An adjustable
bench for boring the feoes upon can be attached
removed required this isfurnished with an
ment for holding the latter and is so conrived that
the bench need not be shifted when the end of the
felloe is to be bored, but merely movable pin. In
addition to all these Improvements there is neat
