and Little Rock road, and tho direction of what repairs should be made. What odi- um do you cast upon the Territory, that there IS no man, set of men, nor even the whole body of men resident ie the Terri tory, worthy of this trust, but tha. 1t should be consigned to citizen of Kentucky. who it had pleased the President to send to preside over us for the time being, and who IS now and never has ceased to he citizen of Kentucky-entitled to all tae rights and privileges as such! Have not the same men who have wisdom enough to elect you, wisdom enoughto dispose of their own pro- perty-construet and erect their own pub lie buildings! Iris strange that your con- stltuents have sunk so low.

 The last (though not lcast) of your crimes by commission which l shall now mention, is this: At the. session S. she Ie- glslature in 1851, memorial to Congress asking such modification of our organic law as would give to the people tue right of electing their own Governor was passed. - By your exertons, this measure was defeat ed--you opposed the alteration, and there- by the people lost the right-tfe right of choosing their own Executive officer. the greatest boas. of an American fieeman.-- And what apology have you to offer for this! Will 1t be the same you made fer us in your speech in defence of Judse John son, that the people of the Territory s.are too ignorant and corrupt to be. trusted with so rich blessing"

 For all the above reasons I think you are unworthy the station of Delegate in Con- gress; and l earnestly hope and trust that majority of my fellow-citizens, particularly inthe Mississippi Circuit, will think with me, and give their votes to your opponent, who although he may not have been the first choice of all of us, we think preferable to you. Your obedient servant,

 OLD GRIMES.
