when she had returned from visit, she inquired

Whlg Convention.

We find call in the last Vicksburg IVhiq. for the

3rd Monday in May. Has Unionism SO soon ceased to
exist and has that patriotic love which seemed burn
pure and galanty, died Alas, the instability of
the political man the whose days apparent-

tion ofthe State derded and denounced party as an
evil too awful to exist, and they became world wide
patriots. But seems that the public plumber viii e-

,etie resolutions and public pledges.

time honored principles. The tariff is now understood
By all men, and it is well known that it is means a.
droitly employed by the North to build up her
liar interests by leyyng indirect tax upon the slave
labor of the South and particularly the cotton crow
ing interest. Internal Improvement by the General
Government, is another resorted to- to expend
the public upon the Northern Atlantic coast
and harbors lakes and rivers The South has derived
no valuable advantage from this SYSTEM for not one
fourth of the appropriations have been expended the
Southern coast. The public revenues expended al
the North, but the South actually pays two thirds o.
the governmental expenses The Bank is an obsolete
idea. The public lands will be squandered. and tbs

Wings will press the Compromise as Finality, and tt

For if you drink and drink again,

GrThe papers announce that Kossuth, the gf5 at
Hungarian patriot and chief visited Jackson last week
He was received by Gov. Foote, made speech, and
left soon thereafter, for New Orleans.
We have frequently been asked lately what course
would pursue towards Kossuth's doctrine of inter-
vcntion. We have answered these queries long since
publicly-long before Kossuth visited our Shores or
before the press had indicated It's course The Tam
many Hall resolutions OF September last, furnished
the occasion for comment on the principle and policy
of foreign intervention We availed oursel of it, and
entered our protest not against the principles but the
Policy of the principle. The Southern press has al
most entirely acquesced in views, long since ex-
pressed. The Past is safe the Future alone is in dan
ger Let look and leave Kossuth and his prin-
eiPle to work their way with the sober thought
Of the masses
