Mississippi palladium. [volume] (Holly Springs, Miss.) 1851-1852, 1852-04-22

We End call in the last Nicksburg
Why, for the assembling OF a Wig Con-
ceHtioa at jackson, on The 3rd Monday in
May. Has Unionism SO soon ceased To
exist, and has that patriotic love which
seemed to burn so pure and calamity, died?
Alas, the instability Of the political man
the man whose days are apparently dcvo-
ted to his counuyl Why. the wings in our
section of the State, derided and denoun-
ced party rs an evil too awful tU exist, and
they became worldwide patriots. But It
seems that the public plunder viii exert Its
influence, aid that the prospect for a diyis--
ion of the spells drives from their hearts
all memory Of patriotic resolutions and
public pledges.
The whig party can never unite again
upon their old time honored principlcs.-
The tariff IS now understood by all men,
and ID is well known that il is means
adroitly employed by the North. to build
up her pecula interests, by leyying an in
direct tax upon the slave labor of the So Il,
and particularly the cotton growing in,ar-
est. Internal Improvement BY the Gen
eral Government, is another means resor-
led to, to expend the public treasure up
on the Northern Atlantic coast and har-
bor=, lakes aud ,iv-ss-- The South has de-
rived no valuable advantage from this sys-
TEN, for not one fourth of the appropria-
tons have been expended on the Southern
coast. The public revenues are expended
at the North, but the South actually paws
two thirds of the governmental expenses.
The Bank is an obsolete idea. The public
lands viii be squandered, and the Soatfi
cheated of her right in them. There can
be no union of Southern wings on these
questions-the Northern wings will press
these points, and the Southern wings will
pcess the Compromise as Finolity, and to
attain an acknowledgment of those meas
ules, they offer the remaining rights of the
South, as boot in the trade. The COM
promise then, is to be the point of union
the test. Old issues South will be cast to the
winds, aud the North viii be trusted again.
So it's. The South is bound hand and
foot, and passed over by her politicians. as
fit subject to be picked and robbed The
North viii make any promise necessary to
secure a Northern whig President. She
wants only the control Of the Government;
she has the power to change the taxing
laws, and distribute the money, and with
these means at hand, she can buy up men
and factions. Now she can buy respee-
table party in Mississippi, by simply an
nouhcing that she regards the Compromise
as a EFnalAy. If She can get higher
taxing law. and internal improvement ap-
propriations, she viii readily declare the
Compromise q r1yAuTY, because she can.
whenever she sees proper, repeal or modify
many Of IFS features, and she viii turn 10
the South, and say another Compromise is
necessary,and the demagoguts of the South,
the Foote's, Cobb's and Clemens, will
swear that tie Union Is Ia danger, the con-
stitulion is to be burned, and the day of
blood is nigh-and another onion party,
with its demagogues, its slanders and its
deadening eorrupiions, sill spring into ex-
istencc.
Note reader, what we say. The only
open and publicly ayowed test. for reor-
ganization of Southern whiggerv, viii be
an avowal that the Compromise as it now
stands, is Ftaat adjustment of all section.
