The Yazoo Democrat. [volume] (Yazoo City, Miss.) 1858-18??, 1860-06-23
OUR NEW YORK CORRESPONDENCE.


ing the United States for the first time, am
ignorant of our politics, would be surprised a
the large amount OF friendly advice, coucbed il
the most brotherly language, which is bestowet
by the Republican press Upon their Democratic
opponents. The adheFents of Judge Douglas ar
to great principle in spite of the threats of TIL
Administration and OF the rabid shareholders O.
the South +" and, III another column Of the same
paper the seceders from the Charleston Conven
ton are pAtted upon the back, and told thai
they have the respect of all honest, straight
forward men," and that "while the Republicans
of the North entertain opinions ON the subject OIL
slavery, and on the questions growing out Of its
existence in the United States, radically opposed
to those of the seceders, yet every Republican is
bound to admire the frank, fair, complete and
Ineligible exposition Of the principles of the
seeding Democracy, contrasted with the half
and.haf meaningless platform of the Douglas
men, cunningly constructed for the impossible
purpose of enticing on to it both the anti slavery
men of the North and the pro-slavery men of the
South"
The Tribune AMI Courier and Enquirer, of this
city, have been Publishing any am tunt of the
above kind of stuff, and their e=arhpls has been
followed by large majority of the Republican
PAPERS of the Country. This has all been done
in Conformity to programme got up by the
leaders Of the Republican party, Immediately

cred that the best course to be pursted by the
Republican press between thefti and the adjourn
ment Of the approaching Baltimore Convention
was to endeavor to prevent reconciliation be-
tween the two factions Of the Democratic party.
Dittds ct imperd was adopted as their motto, the
cue was given to their papers all over tht country,
and no stohe has been left unturued to fomeut
discussions, hssrtburnings, jealousies ind dis
trust among the two sections Of the Democracy.
Every Democrat, whether friendly TO the Rich
mOnd or Baltimore wing Of the party, must be
well aware that it is not possible to Keep Gre Fed
eral Government out of the hands of the Lincoln
abOlitionists, if two Democratic candidates for
the Presidency are put into the field. There
must be only one, and that man must receive the
full vote Of The party, in every quarter of the
Union, to be elected. We all have our opinions,
and are entitled TO express them on suitable &C.
casiOns. But this is no time fol talk The enemy
is organizing and preparing for the fight. We
must oct. We must organize. We thtst not
show an undivided front. under the BEST leader
the majority will give us, and victory will then
smile upon us, as usual. But, if ne 20 into ae-
ton like disofdefly mob, Of under two lenders
each giving orders independent Of and different
from the other, we shall be scattered like chat
to the four winds of the heavens and, like the
late Wing party, the great Democratic party of
the Union will live only in history aftef next
November.
We shall have four distinct causes of excite
ment next Week. The Great Eastern will be
here, if no accident happens 70 her, ana if she
left England on the day announced for her de.
parttre. The Japanese will also undergo the
exhausting process of New York lionizatfon about
that time. Congress adjourns, if mistake not,
on MOnday-the Black Republican members to
their respective homes, and the Democrats to Bal
tmore. And lastly, we shall all be on the 6ui
Oiee to learn by telegraph what is being done in
Baltimore.
There has been a good deal of discussion here
On clalse of the will Of late wealthy printer
of this city, Mr. David Fanshaw. By this clause,
portion of the legacy to his son is cut off, if tae
latter does not discontinue the use Of tobacco.
In my opinion, Mr.. Fanshaw has ridden bis pos
thumOus hobby with blind ohstinance which
shows him to have been profoundly ignorant
of human nature. l knew the man very well,
and am confident that he loved his son, and
intended to do rightly by him and by all men
but in appealing to his sons cupidfty to induce
him to- abandon bad habit, Mr.. Fanshaw pur-
sued the most efectual course for manufacturing
a hypOcrite. The man who is bribed to cheat
himself will most certainly endeavOr to cheat the
briber.
There is a report current in che city that no
less parsonage than Brigham Young is among
us, inedg., for the purpose of replenishing his
harem. did not credit the fumor at first. but
am now inclined to believe it to be true, as the
Philadelphia papers speak of his having lately
visited that city, and having been recognized BY
several persons, although he was introduced as
" Mr. Smith" or " Mr.. Jones'" to persons with
whom he was brought in casual contact. There
is great deal of curiosity among the ladies' to
see the husband of sxty-6ve wives and fsther of
one hundred and niRety-two children. If Brig.
ham Young is after rnoHey, he cannot do better
thing than to make an Arrangement with Barnum.
The Museum would be crowded from morning till
night, at fifty cents a head, with citizens and
strangers, anSiOns to have good look at the
IustT saiht..
The latest and choicest Bit Of scandal in the
rel giOus wOr1dIih the elOpement Of the Reverend
George NugenE Mohro With tie wife Of his friend, |
; young lawyer Ofthis city. The gay Young par
son was graduated, not long ago, from our excel |
lent Episcopal Seminary. The world Of wealth
and fashion has just had its excitement in the
salt and counter suit brought against each other
BY MT. Burch, the afiluant banker of Chicago,
md his wife, who mutually accuse each other Of
being naughty; and It appears, by this New York
'lopement, that the pious portion Of the COM
