We take The follwing extract from
the Daily Mississippian of the 26th
ult. 1t shows that old Lawrence is
looked upon as one amongst the fore
most counties in the noble cause of
democracy in this State. We can in
form our friends, Messrs. Price & Fall,
that although we are only allowed but
one representative under the new ap.
Portionment bill, that we will still
maintain that high and lofty position
we have always borne, and that we
shall in future persevere the harder
for the advancement Of democracy.


Rankin and Laurence Counties. -
The new apporlionment will give 10
Rankin and Lawrence but one
representative each. In casting our
eyes over the map of the state, we
could no where see loss Of power
which we would SO much regret. The
people OF Rankin are our friends and
neighbors; we deplore the loss there;
but what shall we say Of the loss in
stannch old Lawrence, the residence
of Fox-the home Of democracy?
We could almost ask that the stern
principles ofjustce should be relaxed
with respect to these two counties.
