WE can hardly be said to have been .
candidate at all, and who asserts that
we made q single movement looking
like q wild hunt for office asserts a false
hood Meridian Mercury.
That the editor Of the Mercury
was a candidate for the Office of
acknowledgement, and so an,
nounced himself in his paper. he
cannot deny, for all who read that
sheet well know it to be the fact;
beside his announcement was copied
into several of the State papers.
If we had been q candidate for an
Office and received only twenty four
votes out Of two hundred and forty
two, as he did before the late dem
ocratic State convention, we would
think and feel, too, that we were
on a very wild hunt indeed, and
was completely lost in the woods.

by totally ignoring his claims and
entirely disrcgarding the will OF
this people in their choice for the

1t is by such acts as this, on the

pressing the will of the people who
sent them to the convention, that las
caused most Of the trouble and

We learn that the citizens Of
Perry, Green ana Marion counties
have rot yet held their conventions
to elect delegates TO the district
nominating convention. In view of
this fact would it not be well to
postpoGe the convention until the
22d of October, thus giving the as
pirant8 for senatorial honors ample
time to fully discuss the issues be-
fore the people. There is nothing
to be lost by a postponement of the
time of meeting OF the senatorial
convention, and we cannot see why
any objection should be urged, as the
discussion is desirable.

EDrroR STR; In your issue OF the
9TH inst. appeared quite a remarkably
lengthy and matured criticism on the
performance given by the Pascagoula
amateurs on the 28th ult. II is not my
desire, neither is there any preconcerted
views or requests on my part, to ma.
l]iciously a@ssail, or attempt in the least
manner whatever to refute or annul the
graduated and eviuced dramaticaI opir-
ions Of "R cheIiop," as expressed so
superabundantly in his close and friend
ly criticism; for, to quote his own Ian
guhge, it is not for the purpose of find
ing fault but merely to assert in behalf
OF these young amateurs my comp eta and
utter surprise upon reading suca a Sc
we're criticism on an amateur entertain
ment. L believe the STAR in its con-
ment on said entertainment very nearly
cOrrobOrated the opinion and apprecia-
ton OF the majority who attended the
entertainment, consequently having
made such a favorable Impression, and
eiiciting the applause and commenda-
ton OF the audience generally. l must
say, with all due regard and Difference
for "RichGlieu," that his unspared and
so-called friendly criticism was in my
opinion entirely unnecessary and uu-
called for, and was doing but little JUS
to the encouragement OF our young
amateurs, vino no doubt would have ]
done much better had they received the
proper instruction, which [ presume
'RIchelieu" is capable OF imparting, +
but being unfortunately deprived Of l
much dramatic talent or information C.
hey simply done the best they knew s
low, and | believe succeeded handsome
y in the attainment of their desired
Inn and purpose. I would not have I
r. chelieu" infer from what I have Il
tated that this is intended to impugn $
personally or TO convey in any degree al
malice or aught else; far from it, for 1 cii
ealIy believe that there is not a single n
RECEPTION as to the correctness of the pl
as it is too well apparent that
writer is well posted and expert ]
need in such matters, but 1 will remark. =.
oweYer, and l presume the entire am- NJ
teur fraternity will coincide with me, W,
lat it is not at all desirable on their go
art, when they use their utmost zeal 10
| e~ndeavcring TO please and satisfy, to IS
one who is so well versed point gri
at so carefully to their friends and fol
le public in general all the parts and -.
Jints in which they are no5 surpris. q

'nsiderat Oh Of the fact that these sav
'ung ladies and gentlemen are only bic
