MISSISSIPPI POLITICS.

There seems to be 4 perfect bedlam
let loose in the political elements i'll
our neighboring State, Mississippi.
At first there assembled an extreme
radical convention at Jackson, and
nominated Gen. Adslbert Ames rs
their candidate for Governor; then
there assembled at the same place, the
moderate, or Conservative Republi-
cans, and nominated Gen. Jas. l.. AL
corn for Governor; and the democrat
ic convention met at Meridian, and
after a good deal of discussion, con-
Guided not to nominate any candidate,
but to leave the members of the Dem
ocratic party free to choose between
the republican contestants, and then
came an opinion from the Attorney
General of the State, saying that no
election could be held this fall, in ac-
cordance with the constitution. Then
Gov. Powers issued a proclamation
advising the officers in the State not
to hold any election at all. Still, it
seems the canvass goes on, and men
of all parties seem to be participating
in the discussion as to whether there
ought to be any election, and if there
is one, how they shall vote.
Democrats and old line Wings are
upon each side of the question as to
whether there ought to be an cleo
ton, and if there is, how the men,
bors shall vote. We think there is
very nearly an equal division on the
question, amongst the opponents of
the republican party. Some regard
Ames as more conservative and some
look upon Alcorn as altogether the
most suitable man.
If al election is hcld-and we think
it will be-the chances, looking from
our stand point-seem to be in favor
of Ames. He is backed by the whole
Federal power of the Government, he
is decidedly the favoritc of the color
ed voters of the State, which are nu-
merically greater than the whites, and
will also command large divide of
the white vote. That is the way the
thing looks to us. We should rejoice
to see a close race between them, in
short, a sharp and decisive division of
the republican party i'll Mississippi,
and we should like to see that divis-
ion so well defined that it would be
impossible of reconciliation; for in
that case, we might reasonably hope
to have one or the other of the wing to
join the opponents of the republican
party, and thus secure the ascenden-
cy Of the anti-repubhcan party in
Mississippi. But VIC fear this is hope
less. Mississippi is, and will be re-
publican till that party breaks down
by the weight of it's own corruption:
which, for the we'll being of the op-
pressed and down trodden people of
the State-we hope, will soon occur.
If an election is held, Ames will be
the next Governor of Mississippi, or
we read the signs of the times amiss.
