tending through columns Of one Of is issues
and saying something about what it was
pleased 70 designate by the unpronounceable
name Of Chickasaw hay, or something
Of that sort, and which We have not the slight
est idea anybody ever troubled themselves TO
read, or cared to understand anywS We
say the Courier is vastly surprised that this
wonderful effort did not completely annihilate
Mississippi Democracy, elect Foote Legisia-
lature, astonish the natives aud create an un-
surpassed excitement generally in ranks, liter
airy and political. But tAe editor consoles
himself by saying he viii examine the past
canvass soon, SO look ont for squalls-the de
m6cracy Of this State viii no doubt trcmLle in
their shoes, and with pallid faces await the Is
sue Of this terrible threat, so soon as il be-
comes noised abroad. Truly, though it may
be, that brave men have lived before Agamem-
non (1nte. 1ganlemnon bireye foTte) If we
have not forgot our Latin grammar sentences)
yet so bold and sturdy, reckless and daring
an editor, has scarcely breathed the vital air
until the time OF him Of the Courier lie
viii examine the political canvass, for il will
bear it not a doubt Of ii. We 20 further,
we think said canvass inyites examination,
and We wish it may be made if anybody feels
it worth while to attemptit. But again, there
seems to be a little Of "that same old time /"
left yet--in that the Editor tells us Seces-
sion has been approved of now we should like
to see the sense Of such a remark as this. To
what does il referl We know not, at least
SO far as any reason goes, unless II means Sc
cession from the deception, chicanery and
fraud, that has been practiced by the Wing
party, in tliis State for several years past, with
this Interpretation il is all plain enough.
Political or government secession, Of any sort
has not beenlmentioned in the canvass to our
knowledge, blnless when names and scare
crows Of this sort were triumphed up by the
wings themkelyes as bug-bears to gull and
higlIten people, who it turned out were entire
| y to well iufornted formy such knavery to
succeed. ljutopce again-- our Knight -Errant.
Editor mourns the death as he seems 70 think
Of the national Democracy, because he says it
has been crushed in Dickinson and Bronson.
We were notaware that there had been much
crushing of Democracy so far as either ofthese
gentlemen were concerned. Dickinson is do
ing very wen, we believe, while the other hav
ing chosen to write a very impertinent letter
TO his superior in office, was very properly and
promptly dismissed from an Office which he
could not hold and behave with proper respect
towards those above him, or at least, which
/ piqae or passion prevented him doing. We
do not know that much crushing of democra-
cy has taken place here therefore, and in all
the last elections, there seems to be an over
whelming amount Of this same, still uncrush-
cd. We commend the Courier most decided
ly to diet and quiet life--to his expose Of the
canvass--to moderate exercise and studies on
Secession, or what is, meant by the word as
he uses and applies it. $500 Not
