- From every quarter we receive cheering
news for the democracy. Every where the par
ty is rallying with a unanimity unprecedented
upon the nominees of the Baltimore Conven-
ton. Gen. Pierce is deservedly popular through
out the South, and he will receive the undivided
support of the unadulterated democracy of the
North. While we present an unbroken front in
oul onward march to victory, the ranks of our
enemy are broken, scattered and thrown into
utter confusion. Every day we hear of boiling
from the ranks We could count many wings
in our own vicinity, who viii not support the
nominee of their party. The same may be said
with truth in regard to every town and village
in the land. A great many wings wh1 are in
dependent of party discipline, refuse to support
Scott, nominated as he was by the abolition in
fuenoe of the north. We know of no demo-
crat who refuses to support PIERCE AND KING.

of tho Yazoo Democratic Association, of Satnr.
day night last, that it is in contemplation tc
have grand Barbecue at this place, towards
the latter part of the present month, the precise
time is not settled upon, from the fact that the
corresponding committee were instructed to ad-
dress many of our most distinguished orators to
ascertain the time that would best suit their con-
venience to attend. As soon as they are heard
from the day will be set. We have seen demo
Gratis from different portions of the country, and
have been informed by them that the party are
ripe for such a demonstration. Let us go into
the matter with the proper spirit, and we will
sweep Yazoo for Pierce, King and Democracy.

Gen. Pierce and the WING Press.

The whig prints are exceedinly anxious to rob
Gen. Pierce of the laurels he acquired in the
war with Mexico. We are really disguised with
this contemplate mode of political warfare
We think it is as criminal to ''rob him of his
good name" as it is to flch from him his purse.
Our people have been in the habit of awarding
with pride and pleasure to those who volunteer
ed to fight the battles of their country, their full
need of praise. This is not only in accordance
with the dictates Of noble heart, but is found
ed in good policy, because we depend greatly up
on our citizen soldiery for national defence. Il
every man who volunteers in the service of his
country is to be sandered and calumniated
whenever his name comes before the people fol
an Office, you would soon find our gallant citi-
zens refusing to obey their countrys call, when
soldiers were needed to repel a foreign foe
But we believe that this practice of wholesale
SANDER Is confined to reckless and unscrupulous
partizan papers, who would do anything fol
party success. In attempting to take from his
brow the military laurels of Gen. Pierce, theil
zeal outruns their discretion. If they should
succeed in establishing the fact (Which by the
way is impossible) that Gen. Pierce acted cow
ardly or that he tainted from fear before the ene
my. they would at the same time convict theil
hood for in his reports, he speaks of the soldier
like bearing and gallant conduct Of Gen. Pierce
in the highest terms of commendation.
But why are our opponents so anxious to con-
duct this canvass upon the military merits OF
the candidates? Manifestly because Gen. Scott
has nothing else to recommend him to the favor
of the people but his military fame, from which
we would not pluck a single laurel We do not
hesitate to say, but make the declaration with
pride, that he is in opinion, the greatest mil
itary captain of the age. But in the present
contest, we not seeking for chieftain to lead
our armies, if we were, we would willingly lay
aside all our objections to the man, and cast our
vote for Winfield Scott in preference to any
body. But it devolves upon the people to select
asmtable person to place at the head of the civ
II affairs Of our government, and for this posi-
ton the qualifications of Franklin Pierce are
unquestionably superior to those of Gen. Scott.
Indeed there is no comparison. The whig pa
pers seem to be fully aware of this, and hence
the constant cry Of huzza for Scott the hero of
three wars and the victor of fourteen pitched
battles. The cry is as senseless as it is bolster.

Gen. Taylor elected him to the Pres;deno,-
Scott's will do the same, but in this they ,,;ri.

The F1sHERIEs- An extract from the first
volume, chapter l9, of +" Rush's Residence at
the Court of London" published in 1888, relating
to the Fisheries, will not be without interest
for our readers at the present moment. The au-
thor, after giving an account of the whole nego-
tiation which resulted in that Convention, and
stating all the points it settled, thus expressed
himself:
When the Convention vas made public. it
underwent criticism in Britain as too favorable,
throughout, to the United States but the article
on the fisheries was assaled with peculiar force.
The leading presses of London opened their
batteries against it. The claims of the United
States were described as of frightful magnitude
the concessions by England as of character
corresponding. Important maritime interests
of the British empire were said to have been
sacrificed. Complaints poured In from the
colonies. The Legislative Assembly and Council
of Nova Scotia sent forward remonstrances, with
which were mixed up not unsparingly charges oi
American ambition and encroachment. The tide
of complaint was sweled by the recollection of
similar alleged sacrifices under the treaty of 1914
Britain by that treaty. said her journals, had
gwen back to France, her great European rival
the enjoyment of the Newfoundland fisheries,
from which twenty years of victories warfare
upon the ocean had totally driven her and now
the calamity was to be doubled by like gift to
her rival in the other hemi sphere
" British statesmen, more calm, La Tory Minis
try was then in power, es now. thought and ac-
ted differently. They had not been deferred by the
anticipation of clamor from entering into the
article They felt that if they had duty to full
fill by guarding British interests on the one hand
they were not released from the obligation of
looking to the just rights of an independent
nation on the other. 1t was in this spirit that
formidable ground of collision was removed
without imparing the honor, or, as is believed,
the essential interests of either country. Yet,
it is proper for the United States to bear in mind
that Britain holds to the doctrine that the war
of 1912 totally abrogGted the old treaty of 1888
on the question of the fisheries; the inference
from which we may suppose to be, that she would
hold this convention to be abrogated on that
point by a future war, Notwithstanding re-
solute insertion of words of perpetuity in its
first articIe."
This passage surely does not look as if any
undue " concessions" had been made to England
on the fishery question. Its aspect is precisely
the reverse. Mr.. Rush, with Mr.. Gallatin,
negotiated the Convention, and an anxious and
somewhat difficult time they appear to have had
it.
