1t is the opinion of nearly every

that the doughty colonel met his
Waterloo at Mississippi City last
Saturday. He was no match for
Gen. Martin.-Gulf Coast Progress.
Col. Stockdale can make longer
speeches and say less than any man
IN con gress, and il is very seldom
that he takes positive stand on
any question. He got on both sides
of the sub-treasury question when
it was an issue, and he is now with
the populists in his financial ideas.
We do not think he wields any inc
f1uence in congress, and another
term would only give him the sal
ary without beneftting bic district
or the state.-Vicksburg Post.
Col. Stockdale did not want to
meet Gen. Will T. Martin, the war
