Senator LAMAR was a lawyer y,
unusually extensive influence in
his state. Let's see. Did we ever
hear of his fiery eloque,ce, his le-
gal ability and his lolitical infu-
ence being used against the MUIR
derer of MATTHEWS or against the
lawless rioters and cut throats of
the Yaz o distric? Did his tren-
chant pen urge upon the judic; al
a, d executive off ;ials in his state
that it was their duty to ferret
out and properly punish the per-
petiators of the Carrolltun ma ssa-
ere? 1t seems to Us a man 'f.vo-

things. Did LAMAR of Mississippi
