The MAToHHz Free TRADER IS
MAp.--Lst the fact be known in Gath,
the Natchez Free Trader is mad
Talking about Old Line Wings in q
windy epistle Of two columns length
be says.
Last week holder attempt was
made in Baton Rouge Flaming
hand-bills and notices, called the Old
Line Wings 10 meet at the City Hall
on such An evening The next morn
ing the Gazette. IA Know Nothing
sbeeD publishes the report of the
meeting, signed by Chairman and
Seeretary. but not another PERSONS
name appears in The swbvla proceed
ings. However, to show how palpable
the trick was, it seems the report says.
the meeting was held 10 the City Hall,
the editorial Of The Gazette says IL WAS
held in the Court House. To prove
conelusively that it was held in neither
place, an Old Line Wing writes to
the Advocate, that he desired attend
ing the meeting and he went to the
City Hall, could not find 1t there,
went to the Court House, but there
was not light visible. The whole
was base plan to deceive the un-
wary" a
No doubt 1t was but If the "Prearn.
BILE and Resolutions - had been for the
Buokenham party, then the Free Ira
der would have brought out that ham,
less cannon Of his, and put in his tall
est Shanghai cock, over the very lar
gest letters of victory, that he could
have mustered in his Office.
There is not q word Of truth In
what the Free Trader says. We'll
show it. The attempt was not a
bold attempt II was modest and
successful effort. There were no
hand-bills or posters, but modest
call in morning paper signed !" Sew.
eral Respectable Old Line Whigs."--
The slight error of the Gazette IN re.
ference to the place. is matter Of
moonshine. The time was all impor-
tant, and In that our contemporary
was right. Who dare deny it.
The "Old Line Wing" who wrote
to the advocate that be could not find
the meeting, is in the first place no
Old Line Wing, but new line Dem
oerat" forced into the ranks of the
spoils party by what Mr.. Newton, has
denominated the attraction Of gray
itation."
The Free Trader, will do very well
to take care Of his own Old Line
Wings and let us and ours alone.

The New Court House.

According TO the advertisement Of the
building committee, tomorrow Saturday
the proposals for building the new Court
House, will be opened, but it is TO be hoped
that under the circumstances none will be
accepted.
A communication over the signature OF
IN echanic,n upon this subject recently ap-
peared in the Advocate, which conclusive
ly proves that no one can safely bid for
the contract, under the specifications Of
work to be DONE Whatever Of doubt any
one who may have entertained as to the
correctness OF the statement made by"Me-
chanic," the neglect to correct any error,
or to reply to his communication must re-
move all doubt and satisfy the committee
that no satisfactory reply could be made.
An examination of the specifications has
convinced me, that Mechanics communica-
ton is entirely correct, as fer as it goes,
but that he has not exposed the most in
consistent and laundering part Of the speci.
fcations, il may call them such, but they
really appear to be burlesque. Why Mr..
Editor, they say nothing Of the thickness,
the height, or the number of the walls -
In the name Of common sense, how can
any one estimate the number of brick
which will be required, when the specii-
cations are silent as to these points. True,
every one knows that there re four outside
walls to every building, but who knows
how high or how thick man wants his
walls, or who can tell how many rooms,
requiring inside walls, will be wanted e
No one save the architect, and he has not
informed us. / presume he will do so

ANOTHER MARRIAGE UNDER Pro-
rEsr.---At Worcester, Mass, on the
29th Of August, Mr.. N. W. Towne.
Of Worchester, was married to Miss
Sarah q. Morrill,, Of Manchester, N.
H., by Rev. 7. W. Higgiuson. As a
part Of The services the protest was
read:
Whereas, the laws Of all Christian
countries relating to marriage are
founded, to a greater or less extent,
upon principles Of injustice and inc
quality, we feel 10 duty bound to enter
our protest against the same, while
acknowledging our mutual affections
and the sacrednes1 Of the relation
which we assume--that Of husband
and wife.
We particularly protest against the
laws which give to the husband the
absolute control Of his wife's person !.
the entire guardianship Of their chill
dren; the exclusive ownership and use
Of her personal property and real es-
tate, unless personally settled upon
her or placed in the hands Of trustees.
the absolute right to the product Of
her industry.
In conclusion, against the whole
law Of inequality between the sexes,
we claim that the wife should be mis-.
tress Of her own person and property,
and have an equal share in the con-
troll Of her children.
Il is understood by this, that Miss
Sally takes charge Of tho business in
doors and out. Il has become unwom-
anly for women TO be confined to the
house.. They must CAD the streets, at
tend Woman's rights, meetings, and
meetings Of the Martyrs Of Liberty
We hope for the credit Of suffering
humanity, that before this couple is a
week old, that Sally will go to the
first Cofse-house to talk politics

citement---come home, kick the
