The Yazoo Democrat., 1859-09-24
COL. VIM. R. HUI.

We copy the following tribute to our candidate
for the State Senate. Col, VIM. R. Hill, from the
vicksburg Daily Sun of last Wednesday. W.
endorse every word of it:
1t is with great pleasure that we commend
Col. VIM. R. Hill, of Yazoo county. to the
voters of the District in which he is a candi-
date for State Senator. No man in Missis-
sippi would do more credit and honor to the
position, and the services of no one, at this
time, would be more valuable in the coun
ellis of our State. He combines all those
elements of mind and character, which rcn.
der his election peculiarly desirable at the
present juncture of our Federal relations
He is profound lawyer, who has earned in
his own native State of South Carolina, as
well 8 in Mississippi, high and well de
served reputation. Possessing we'll bal
auced and logical MUD, richly stored with
constitutional and political learning, as we'll
as varied information, he is cogent, earnest
and powerful debater. Reared in the polit-
ical school of the great Southcrner John G
Calhoun, his mind is deeply imbued with
the principles and teachings of that pure
patriot; and now, as always, without varia-
bleness or shadow of turning, he is Demo
crat of the strictest sect, of the State Rights
school, true to the Constitution and faithful
to the South. And withal, he is man Of
the purest simplicity of character, of singu.
lar integrity ofpurpose, of remarkable frank
ness in the expression of his views. and Of
unyelding and infexible frmness in what
he conceives to be the cause of truth and
his country. Whenever and wherever a
contest may arise, involving the interests,
the honor or integrity of our own section, be
would be found faithfully maintaining and
defending them. In view of the increasing
aggressions of the North, snd the periIous
conflict with the Black Republicans, now
over us, we need in our State
Legislature such men as VIM. R. Hill, who
firmly planting themselves on our constitu.
tonal rights, will boldly meet the issue, aud
inAexibly maintain, at every hazard, our in
terests and integrity.
The peo pie of bis district could not select
a more able, faithful and vigilant represent.
ative in the State senate. His strict sense
of right, his impartial integrity and intimate
acquaintance with the Constitution and
frame of our Government, would secure to
them the protection of every right and ad-
of every interest.
The Yazoo Democrat., 1859-09-24
COL. VIM. R. HILL.

We publish to day the address Of Col. Hill tc
the voters Of Bolivar, Washington and Issaquena
counties, announcing himself candidate for the
office of Senator for this District. The briei
space intervening between the time of his deter.
mination to become q candidate and the day Of
election, will not permit him to visit his fellow
citizens Of the river counties, and he issues an
address to them therefore, briefly defining his
position in politics generally and on the Lsves
question especially, and has published list Of
appointments to meet the citizens Of Yazoo at the
various public placea in the county.
The lateness Of the hour OF which Col. Hill
enters the canvass was unavoidable. As soon aG
be was nominated by the Democracy Of Yazoo, he
signifed his willingness to enter the field as soon
as 1t could be ascertained that he would be &C
ceptable to his party in the other counties of the
District The non-action of these counties on the
subject, together with information from them
through private sources, led him to infer that he
would not be unacceptable to the party in that
quarter. AS soon as he was impressed with this
belief, he at once announced himself q candidate.
The lateness of the hour does not impair his
chances eff success. Col. Hill is known by repu
tation to every voter in the District Although
he has been out of political life for some years,
the people have not forgotten his distinguished
services in the cause of States rights and personal
liberties, in 1851 ard '55 The ability with
which he discussed the issues involved in the
memorable contests of those years marked him as
one Of the foremost men in Mississippi. His
position on the Levee question is sufficiently
explicit He is opposed to the existing Levee
law are also nineteen wentieths of the citizens
of Yazoo. He is opposed to law which requires
them to build Levee, from whiSh they will derive
injury. But his opposition to the present Levee
law does not 60 the extent of excluding the valley
lands Of Yazoo entirely, from tax for levee pur.
poses Note well the sentiments of his address
on this point.
1t is proclaimed by the friends of the present
levee system that an attempt will be made by
them in the next legislature to tax every foot of
land in the valley, from the Mississippi river to
the base of the hills east of the Yaaoo. Let the
people of Yazoo rise up en- masss against such a
mOnstrOus, iniquitous scheme of taxation, and
strangle its advocates at the polls in October
Does anybody believe that the area of taxation SO
extended would satisfy the friends of the levee
system The next proposition would be to tax
the whole State. The more you give the more
will be wanted.
We commend the views of Col. Hill on this
subject to the voters of the District as in all
respects, sound, just and equitable
The Yazoo Democrat., 1859-09-24

NEGRO TRAGEDY IN MISSISSIPPI
learn from reliable source that on Satur.
day night last negro man belonging ia
Mrs. May6eld, of Horn Lake, De Soto coun.
ty, Mississippi, killed bis wife under the fol,
lowing circumstances AS customary, he
proceeded on the night above named to
visit his wife, who lived on the neighborinp
plantation of DR.. Raine When he arrived
at her cabin he entered it quietly, and dis,
covered his wife asleep, locked in the arms
of another negro. Fired with rage and ieal.
ousy, he determined to take the life of the
destroyer of bis peace, and with this purpose
in view, went out aud procured an axe, and
attacked, as he thought, bis wife'S paramour,
but owing to the excitement under which ho
was laboring, and the darkness which per.
vaded the room, the blow which he struck
with the axe, instead of killing the man,
severed the head from the body Of his wife :.
The blow awakened the man sleeping
with her, who sprang from the bed and made
his escape. The outraged husband repaired
at once to fernando and related suhstanti>
ally, the above story, and said that he wish
ID to deliver himself in custody of the Sher
il. He was taken in charge and committed
% jail. Memphis AvGldmche
The Yazoo Democrat., 1859-09-24

This miscellaneous franking of newspapers by
persons vested with the privilege, ia an abuse that
ought not to be tolerated.
Look at it for q moment, and see how it may
be abused by the Oollusion of newspaper pub
Usher and U. g. Senator, or any one entitled to
the liberty of ranking The publisher goes to
his advertising patrons and states that the next
issue of his paper will contain the speeches of
Senators Douglas and Pugh, and that many
thousand extra copies Of it will be printed and
circulated, free of postage, under the frank of
one or the other Of these distinguished person
ages, and that if they will insert their advertise
ments in that number Of his paper, they will be
circulated the length and breadth Of the land
And thus the Senators, publisher and patrons are
benefited, and their business and prospects pro-
NOTED, all at the public expense. We repeat that
we hope Postmaster General Holt will see to it
tuat this abuse of the public service be no longer
suffered to be practiced

the other way. Hypocrisy is the tribute paid to
truth BY men who think well enough Of il to pre-
tend to possess it. hypoCrits is practically an
Infidel He opposes Christ; he opposes His
truth privately, while publicly he processes it he
acknowledges the true coin by trying to pass the
counterfeit. All counterfeit money that possesses
any value, is only valuable because there exists
true coin, sOhich pretends to resemble. Those WHO
truly set forth, in their thoughts and practice, the
truths of Christ, are alone and exclusively refer
red to as arguments for or against His system.
The conduct of mere professors is only argument
against them, and not against Him.

Resolved, That we re-anuounce as the basis OF
party 0ction, the platform of principles laid down
by the Democratic party atthe National Convention
OF 1855; and hold that the doctrine of mon
intervention" with the Institution Of slavery in the
States, Territories or District Of Columbia, does
NOT, nor was 1t intended to, conflict with the
assertion Of the power of Congress to protect the
property VI the citizens Of the several States who
may choose to settle in the Territories. which are
the common property Of all the States.
Rsso10ed. That in the language of the Supreme
Court OF the United States, that "the right Of
property in slaves is distinctly and expressly
afnrmed in the Constitution"-and s'the only oower
over 1t conferred upon Congress, is the power
coupled with the duty of guarding AMI protecting
the owners in their rights" as thus declared.
Rssolved, That Mississippi will stand by her
sister slaveholding States in insisting unon the
enforcement by nll the departments of the federal
government Of their constitutional rights as thus
expounded by the Supreme Court Of the United
states.
Rssolced, That in the event Of tho election of o
Black Republican candidate fol the Presidency,
oy the sutrages Of one portion of the Union only,
TO rule over the whole United States, uron the

Will regard 1t as declaration of hostility and will
hold herself in readiness separately or in concert
to cooperate with her sister States of the South
IN whatever measures they may deem necessary
for the maintenance of their rights as co.eoua
members Of the confederacy.
Re'olved, That we feel it incumbent upon the
Democracy Of Mississippi again to declare thai
the acquisition of Cuba by the United States is q
commercial and political necessity, and that we
will hail with pleasure every proper measure that
looks to its accomplishments and further, we can
never consent to its appropriation by any foreign
