reports of any portion OF the State seems TO con.
fine 1t, what becomes of the promise made by Gov.
Yell. that he would be candidate, only upon
condition that his party desired it two years
hence? If fve-sixths Of the Democrats are in
favor OF his reelection, with the known desire,
ifnot the expressed intention of Gov. Yell TO run
for the same oHce, it cannot be, nor is ii the de-
sire that he should be elected.

is ,sse to prejudice the Democrats against Col.
Ashley who is now the favor.e Of the party

as indeed it ought, for il is wide of the truth
it is false so far as my information extends. In
this portion of the State majority Of the leading
wings are for Gov. Yell, and warmly so Do.-

The absurdity of such a course io-siriiir.!y
apparent from the present condition OF the pubic.
mind. Nine-ten,hs Of the people are in favor cf
his reelection over Gov. Yell, or perhaps any
man in the State. aku. yet, they cannot have his
services, for.ooth he promised Gov. Yell or some
of his friends that he wond not run against him
two years hence. If such promises are binding,
against the wishes. and Interests OF the people,
and upon the individual making them, "tat pcsj-
ton does Gov. Yell himself occupy at this very
moment? did he not pledge himself in black and
white TO more than one Of his friends, thst un-
der no circumstances would he permit his name
to be before tho people for any Office during the
las, election? Surely Gov. YeII, or his friends
do not wish to bind Col. Ashley by promise.
which he would not regard for one moment No,
No, they have too much maCnanlmry to enter
tain such thought, for if Gov. Yell found it ne.
cessary, for his own aggrandizcment, to break
down the doings of one minority Convention, and
10 abide strictly by the dolngs Of second mlnorl.
ty one, to disregard such a promise, he would
not hesitate for one moment tu do so. Then lett
US hear no more of this pledge from Macon.


After all, do not believe that Col. Ashley
will run against Gov. Yell, for long before the
election comes on, Gov. Yell will believe It me-
cessary to withdraw from public life the better
to rear and educate his children.
