FlOydfCOuntv.

The Democrats Of Floyd county are to
hold meeting at New Albany, on the 10Th
inst, for the purpose of appointing delegates
to the 9Th of January Convention. The
Democrats of New Albany have fitted up,
at an expense of several hundred dollars, a
fine hall, and are determined to thoroughly
organize for the next contest. There are no
Democrats more worthy of success than those
Of title Floyd For number of years the
contests in that county were exceedingly close
and conducted with much bitterness. When
the Know Nothing whirlwind swept over the
country in 1854 Floyd was, owing to Pc
culiar causes, carried along with it, and was
one of the few counties which at the late
election gave h. n. majority-greatly re-
duced, however, from what it had been the
year before. We now look with great conf
dence, and almost absolute certainty, to the
thorough redemption of New Albany and
Floyd county from the stigma of Know
Nothingism. Scores of men who went with
the order without knowing its true character
are thoroughly Disguised with it and vii
hereafter be found battling against it. The
violence resortel to at the two elections pre-
vious to the last, has had most damaging
effect on the prosperity of New Albany, a
all her citizens mHst see and feel.
To our friends in Floyd we say, be of goo,
cheer; organize thoroughly; go to work earn
estly; and above all, give to the New Alba
ny Ledger your home paper and one which
under its present publishers, Messrs. Mori
son & Matthews, is. conducted with marke'
ability, liberal support, and all viii be sel

or We had intended TO write an article
this week upon the subject of the Presidency.
Mr.. Hall, Of the Evansville Enquirer, has
saved us the trouble. His article, published
in this weeks paper, embodes our sentiments.
We believe, with Mr.. Hall. that Jesse ID.
Bright is destined to be President Of the u.
States, and we believe further, that 1856 is
the time to make him such; that he en-
bodies as much, if not more, Of the elements
of success, than any man in the Union, we
don't think will be disputed; that he Is well
qualified, and national to the core, no sane
man will deny.-RuslUine Jacksonian.
