RRESPONDENCE
Liberty Miss, Aug. 25lh 1855

LIBERTY MISS, Aug 25lh 1855.
DEAR CoMer -
With tears in my eyes, and four
wet pockethapdkerehiofs on table, |
take my trembling pen in hand, to lot
you know, what has happened in this
miss-named grease spot on the may Of
Mississippi.
X. N. ism here, as elsewhere, has
until recently boon all the 60. Every
body went into the wigwam, to sec
what they might see; the sight being
a very cheap one. All our malo pop
ulation rushed, jammed crowded on
one other, to get in first, and have a
front seat to get good look at the an
imals and when they come outlook
cd knowing; until knowing looks got
common, and then they were all of a
sudden abandoned. The Liberty Ad-
vocate of this morning parades the
names of the following influential citi-
zens, in n card to the public--to let
the people at large know, that they
have been thieves and midnight plot
ters of treason," but are now, no longer
So give you their names F.; A. S.
Pringle, Esq, Maj. 10. Snodgrass,
Col. Pleasant Jones, William McMug-
gins, j. Pitkin Jingle Esq, and Au-
thur McAuthur. Now, Comet, let
me ask, how do these men stand in
the eyes of men, who pretend to be
governed in their lives, by some fixed
principles /? Can they be regarded
in anyother light than that of self con-
victed demagogues if not something
worse? I think not. Enough. In
the fear that I grow eloquent on this
subject, I grasp my pen to subscribe
myself your paid correspondent.
PoINs.

Could not something Of this sort be

the Democracy, for the past ten
years---have said many hard things
during that time, and have never

some men we wot Of, who have posi-.

they have never yet had even cup

It's own reward, it is very poor one !;
and something should be done by the
party to make it equivalent to itself
The presentation of "plate," would

A Paris letter says that crime and
suicide are largely on the increase in

Seine: washer.woman and her
daughter found sutlocated by charcoal
in their beds; landlord found hing
on account Of an incurable disease !:
a woman, reduced to starvation, found
sutfocatcd. with three children a Tia
chinist and sailor seen to blow their
brains out from supposed pangs Of
love; . case Of voluntary drowning
from want Of work; another, from
dread Of being arrested for leaving a
cafe without paying. TO which |
must add the case Of NJ. Gras, who
being refused in marriage, shot the
lady and a more successful admirer,
and then shot himself; as well as tho
case Of Mr.. and Mrs. Boigegian, who
imprisoned two old men in hencoop,
