The forces of conservatism are marshaling-
and the whirlwind which is generating will
be the harvest that will be reaped by a trucu-
lent, an unprincipled, and corrupt faction
When this shall be effected, then may we in
dulge hopes of peace, then may we enter with
reliance upon schemes of material prosperity,
and then may we, to some degree, realize So
cial and political quetude, in the place of
the long continued period of agitation and
unrest, to which we have been subjected by
the set Of ''infernals" who have been for 80
long time cOrruptly welding the power of

THE COTTON GIN QUESTION AGAIN

tise Emery's Improved Cotton Gin-soon after
which, another party advertised as follows: 81
am THE authorized agent for Emerys American
Gin, &C." As this would seem to make my
claim untrue, and show that l could not supply
the Gins as l advertised to do, wrote second
advertisement heading it., "The Cotton Gin
Question" to which exception is made. In this
did not intend to do any one "injusice,' but
only intended simple justice to myself, by reas-
surfing my friends that / could do as promised,
ANYTHING else to the contrary, notwithstanding. l
believed that had right to protect my word,
and am still family impressed with the same idea
1t will be seen by II. L. Emery 4 Sons card, es-
tablishing an agent here, that they claim to be
successors of "Emery Bros" while my authority
to sell the Emery Bros. Improved Cotton Gins is
signed by Emery Bros. themselves. These let
tiers decline to publish account of their
length, but have read them to the Proprietor Of
the Day Book, so that if l make any mistate-
ment, he may notify the public. Fuller details
