On Saturday last, the Hon. S. S. Prem
tlss, ss,addressed large number ofthe citi.
zens of Lowndes county. The day, as
well as the one previous, was very raj
ny, and hundreds of our country friends
were unable to be present. OF the
speech we cannot praise it in too high
terms. The brilliant flashes of wit and
eloquence, with which it abounded,
kept the audience as it were SPELL
bound; and the able and mastery
manner with which he exhibited the
ruinous measures of the last and pre-
sent administration ofthe General Co
vernment-the complete humbuggery


and the danger of the Sub-Treasury


scheme, and the lucid manner in which


he exhibited the advantages of a Ma
tional Bank at this time in restoring the


currency to its former sound state,
were such as to convince the hearer,
| that Mr.. Prentiss was correct in his
views, and that such a man would be
the ornament and pride of Mississippi
in Congress. We have no time
to say more on the subject of his
speech in our paper to-day. We may,
hereafter find occasion to again notice
