ENDORSEMENT OF THF CON-
SENTATIVE ADDRESS BY THE
PIP ESS
From the Mississippi Bulletin.

FROM the MISSISSIPPI bulletin
We have received an address to the peo-
pie of Mississippi, through the Clarion.
signed by a hundred and thirty-two of the
ablest and best men of the different counties
! of the State, advising the conservative ele-
ment- Democrats aud Whigs,) and all who
desire TO put an end to carpet-bag rule, and
wish to see the State relieved from its pres
ent thraldom, TO cooperate heartily with
the National Union Republican party, in
electing the men they may put before the
people. We can see no other course than
that above mentioned, to be pursued; but
we are short of space this and Will be the
next but when our columns become unen-
numbered, we shall lend all the aid we can
in the direction indicated, and pass a few
brick-bats carpet-bag- scallawags ward.
From the Memphis Avalanche.
We print elsewhere an address issued the
other day to the people of Mississippi. 1t
is document for which we bespeak an at
tentiVe perusal. After the great events OF
Thursday it will be read with peculiar in
terest. This address is signed by a large
number of representative men of all parties,
Conservative and Republican. 1t contains
such names as AMOS K. JOHNSTON, WIN.
EERGER, WILEY 7. HARRIS, and many others
equally well known and honored by the
people of Mississippi. On its principles
Mississippi will go into the canvass.
From the Kosciusko Chronicle.
We publish to-day on our outside the adj
dress of one hundred and thirty-six Con-
sentative men from all parts of the Stats,
and the old political parties, TO the people
advising them to cooperate with the "Na-
rional Union Republican" party in the pres
ent canvass. The signers of this address
are representative men-men who at heart
are parrots and not mere Office-SeekerS-
Their opinions, therefore, are worthy of in
vestigation, and when the people give the
policy pointed out in the address an inves-
tigation, we believe that they will unani-
mousy cooperate with the IN ational Union
Republican" party. From every quarter
the people are for supporting the nominees
of that party. We are sincere when we say, |
that those who advocate running a third
ticket, at this juncture, are aiding and abet- |
ting the ultra Radical party.
From the Brandon Republican.
In another column will be found an adj |
dress TO the Conservatives of Mississippi |
signed by one hundred and thirty-six lead |
ing and influential citizens, representing al |
most every county, and beth the old Wing |
and Democratic parties of former days. |
This address urges the Conservatives of the |
State to vote for the candidates of the Con-
servative Republican party, and against the |
party of carpet-bag proscriptionists, Hes
slams and thieves. We believe this is the |
only safe course for those who wish to rid /
the State of Military tyranny, to pursue,
and We are sorry TO see that few of our
old Hard-shell Democratic exchanges advise
a different course. This is no time to stick
TO old party names and prejudices. We have
always loved the name and principles of the
old Wing party, yet when we believed we
could do more effectual service against the
crew of carpet-bag thieves and hOme-raIsed
villains, by fighting under the Democratic
banner, we cheerfully buckled on the Dem
Ocratic harness. and fought the last glorious
and victorious battle as a Democrat. Now,
q different state of affairs exist.
From the Canton Mail
We commend to the careful perusal of our
readers the address published on our first
page to the people of Mississippi. 1t is a
verv carefully prepared document, and con-
siders the situation in its true light. 1t
comes with the signatures ola large number
of our leading men-most of them men dis
tinguished for wisdom and foresight. men
whose voices deserve to be, and are ever
needed when dangers and troubles environ
us. These representative men, from every
section of our State, after carefully con-
sidering the situation, earnestly unite in
pointing out what, in their opinion. is the
course to be pursued in order to steer clear
of the black gulf of Radicalism that yawns
before us.
