In manner apparently INTENDED 70
the enquiries which designed on the l9tn
ult. In regard TO certain publications. In your
paper of that date.
In your editorial columns, find general
remark Of another writer, Inserted by you
give 1t personal application to The Editor OF
The Clarion, as follows;
DIR. Martin prescribes tho following PHI for
the Clarion; " am not willing to DO classed
with Brown, of Georgia, aud Others VINO,
having proved false to the South in Its hour
of need, are now willing to barter their
birthright for mess Of pottage. Con.
Will. Il. Martins letter to Natchez Courier.
In the Same manner you have quoted an
offensive remark applied by another journal
to wholly different person, and given IL the
same application as above, and by ironical
inuendo, conveying reflections of the most
derogatory character, as follows;
1.-THE editor the Canton Mail thinks the
"two apostates," the Vieksbnrg Herald and
jackson Clarion are endeavoring to bring
disgrace upon the country,hy an utter deser-
ton of principle, and hints very broadly
that "the little sugar that lies in the cup"
had its influence on those journals, Now,
Iuhb 10 ~ NbIy Cubt iuu WIZ MANY
some people believe that these patriotic jour
nails have an eye to the resolution now pend
ing before Congress to make appropriations
for the benefit Of"loyal newspapers in the
South" Fie! ie Don't you know that
men who make such terrible sacr.t fees for
the sake of their country nsver think of the
miserable root of evil-mOney. No No!
We prophesy that they will s-c-o-r-n assist
ance from the National Treasury.
My object in addressing you is to inquire
whether you intend to apply to me or to en-
dorse as applicable to me the imputations
contained in these passages
In card subsequently published you
have stated that you are mot ut liberty to
restrict" your editorial course to" my dis
erection am reluctant to believe that you
mean to be understood rs denying my right

SIR: Your note Of this date has been re-
ceived. Having heretofore stated to Col
Donald the animus of certain editorials which
appeared in the Mississippian, and regard
ing those referred to by you as of the same
character, they cannot therefore be justly
regarded as an imputation derogatory to
your personal character.
Whilst admitting your right to make in
quiry concerning publications affecting
you personally" cannot, as heretofore sta
ted in the card referred to by you, restrict
my editorial course to the limits of your dis
cretion," Respectfully,

You ask counsel OF me. L have

personal motives can possibly sway

rage to you DISTINGUISHES me. / have

memories of the past, the affection l
cherish for its people, and the graves
of my kindred These ties, however,
are strong enough 10 keep alive in my
heart warm interest in my State, and
they are sufficient to make one strive
always to promote her welfare. This
motive, alone, brought me here to-day,
for it was not until the chairman Of
your committee urged me to come,

good to my own people, and to his"

CouRr DAY,-The quarterly term of
the County Court of this County, convened
on the 25th of November last, and, owing 10
the fact that the Court failed to meet at the
October term on account of the inclemency
of the weather, quite a large number OF
people were in attendance. The Court, we
unterstand, failed to meet Mt its October
term, 1853, on account OF the terrible snow
storm which occurred the night before, and
which rendered the public highways almost
impassable. This failure and the one at the
october term last, are the only times our
Court has failed to convene for more than
forty years.
Nothing but the usualgCaunty business
was ransacted on the first day,
On the second day, Sumpter Brooks, John
Jones, Harrison Ellis and Edmund Robin
'son (all col ored) were prosecuted for engag-
ing in q riot on Sunday in April last. The
jury, after hearing the evidence in the case,
returned q verdict of guilty against Brooks,
Jones, and Ellis, and fixed their fine at $40
zach. There being no evidence against Rob-
1nson, he was discharged. In the case a
gainst Charles Hellwig, for selling liquor to
be drank where sold, without a lawful IL
cence for SO doing, "nolle prosequi" was
entered.
The case of Andrew Jackson and Jack -,
the two negroes who made an assault upon
two of our citizens, and blockaded the pub
lie road ut the negro celebration on the 4th
of July last was continued until the next
March term.
