Our Choice.

At the head of our columns we,
today place the names OF JEFF.
DNxLs, for President of the Coufed
cr.t. States, and r. III. STEPHENS,
for Vice President. We feel conf
ds,sk. that these gentlemen are the
,.ers,.ans in whose hands the reisns OF
osr government shoulaagain be pac-
ed. Tliey are tried men, and have
proved to the satisfaction of every
Southerner and leal subject OF our
Confederacy, that they are the men
for the times, and should be at the
helm of cur government. lis difficult
to humor the whims of the mass, OF
the people, but we firmly believe that
in this instance there will be an eN-
ception. For the good of our Confed-
eracy, its prosperity, and the ultimate
success of our new government, these
pentlemen mast be reelected to the
resuective offices which they at pre-,
sent I'll with honor TO themselves and
to the credit of those who placed them
in the positions they now occupy
Let there be no wavering on the da,
of election, but as one man, let every
citizen, throwing aside all politica
differences of opinion, cast his sot
for JEFF. DAVIS for President am
A. H, STEPHENS for Nice-Presiden
Of the Southern Contederacy. Is,
vond doubt, after the result of tn
approaching election is made KNOW
we will have the satisfaction OF pre-
claiming the election of these Sel
tlemel.
That thcle will be any opposite
to our candidates, the peoples cholc
we.cannot believe, for they should
elected without dissenting Vol
being heard. Let rs give Jef.' t
!.chiettain rebel" a rousin@ vote, al
show not only him, but the worl
that Southcrners know how TO appl
ciate good qualities.
