means OF removing the evil, were highly


approved. DR.. Gwin'S speech was .


straight forward, clear and manly expo.

measures which will come before The


federal government; and when he avowed


his course on the abolition petitions, be


was received with cheers by all parties.


1t has been supposed by many that none


but lawyers or old politicians couldImake


good speech; but Dr.. Gwin's effort


Yesterday gave quletus to this opinion.


1t was pronounced by all parties very


sensible and very able speech


When he concluded, John ID Freeman,


Esq, took up the aati.bond question, and


IN an eloquent speech of nearly three


hours he presented the detail of the stron-
gest arguments against the liability, legal


moral or religious, Of the people of Mis-
sssIppl to pay the Union Bank bonds.


The Giraffe took the forum then, in


behalf OF the bondmen. He poured out
torrent of words, words, words, crude hob
bling tropes and figures, that would scare
the saddle of Jackass, but he failed 10
addnce single argument or anything ap-
proachlng an argument in refutation of
Ne positions assumed by Mr.. Free nan.
Among the mass Of balderdash and ridic
llons nonsense that he uttered, and which
his trusty clappiers cheered to the echo,
as hearty as if they had been paid b, a
French play actor; there were a goodIy
number of bald aud unmitigated lies
One Of these lies was, that it was a loco
loco legislature that created the bonds.
Now IT is notorious fact, that the legis.
latare which created the bonds, or at
least made the supplemental bill, had
maIonIt" OF wings as is evinced by the
election Of John Henderson 10 the Sem
ate OF the United States. Mr.. Prentiss
frequently contradicted himself in his |
wild and Incoherent effort to prop up
rotten, corrupt and degrading cause. At
one moment our State was the richest.

Mr.. Freeman thoroughly used Prentiss
mp on one point. Prentiss was member
of the very legislature that passed the u. |
Bank charter, and the Chickasaw county
representatives, having been admitted,
Prentiss laid before the body a solemn
protest against the constitutionaity ofthe
and we recollect in one Of
his speeches he declared they had no
more right 10 make laws than so many
Choctaw Indians. But one thing stared
Mr.. p. in the face--war from abroad,
iesolarion at home, pestilence, famine,
FIRE and fury would be our portion unless
we settled up and paid too, Cor the various
champaign (rolics, gambling froIics, and
spring ioIications which he and his bro
lher bank favorites enioved from the ar.
