SExNATOR, JC5TLe annual conference of the Methodist Protestant Churcb,will commence at Hopewell Church, (Loper'a Settlement.) in ihis countyt & on Friday, the 3d of October We will notice Mr. Thompson's expose in our next. His address will be found on our 1st page. It is worthy of an alte ntire perusal. The Election of Judge. The Clarion of the 13th inst., is out most fu riously, on this important tde-cticn. There is not much, however, for us lo notice, bs the whole funic has grown out of tlie publication, by the Clarion, of the 25;h ult., over en oncr.ymous name, purporting to be ua Citizen of Lauder dale" giving the standing cf Judge Mounger in that county, and a correction of the errors of that articlu, by a "Friend to Truth," pub lished in oar True Democrat of the 10th inst "" That Steele Patet. We should be un der m.my obh'g.iti.nis to hc editors of the Cla rion, if they would fiver us with a copy of that Steele piper, thich t!:ey say if publish, d in this place. Wc. aelaiou ledge uu ; Self lo be must miseiabiy i:i the dark in this matter If t!:. v wish ii to be understood, that ours is a steel press, they are mistaken it is an iron on", and a good oner at that capable of disseminating sound and true Democratic doctrines to the peo ple, without "fear, favor or affection" and, judging from the patronage now extended to it, one would infer, they intended to support it- jesting aside. Dro. Sib, if you see any thing anti-democratic in our paper,' be so good os to point out the error, and we will endeavor to correct it but do not cast sly insinuations and inucndois that we do not merit at your hands. Wo are sup porting none but Democrats, good and true. How is with you, Sim 1 Do you thine; that Gen JOHN A. QUITMAN, Ju'jge HENRY ! MOUNGER, and HENRY CALIIOON, I Es.., democrats 1 If you do, we must beg leave to didl-r with you. Gen. Quitman was the whig candidate fur Congress against that sterling de mocrat, S. J. Gholson, some years ago, and he, (Quitman) only received one vote in Paulding, The Clarion insinuates that the corrective by "A Friend to Truth," is a fabrication of "home and ibat was a Whig vote. At Gai lundsville manufactory" Such illiberally shall pass us j he got a good vote, and would again, among at the idle wind. We have rather more res- I his whig friends. Judge Mou.noer was a vio pect for truth, than to engage in the invention of, 1 knt Whig when we fiist settled in Jasper coun or participation in such means, to abuse the confidence, placed in us, by our patrons. They expect, when they read in our paper, that Judge j We dj net believe that Judge Mjunger will Mounger is not, and that Col. A. B.

He was a violent .. .... I W 1 i 'ir. . .1 M. I. 1 L r .... vf . until Governor McNutt appointtd him Judge. true, else they would not find the fact so stated. But how comes it that the correction gives sj much cfiVnce? If it is not true that Judge Mounger is a long ways in the resr in Lsuder dale, and the article by "A Citizen cf Lauder dale," expresses the real standing of the Judge in that couRty, why gtt into a pucker about it I The Clarion refuses to announce the real name of "A Citizen of Lauderdale, " wLilsl we offer, and really are anxious, to hand over the rca! name of "A Friend to Truth." Does not that indicate an intention to make a " irrcvg im pression" in these days of trror? We here the Clarion will believe us, when we assure Judge Mounger and his fiiends, that "A Fiictrd to Truth," is a gentleman of the first respecta bility, and a resident citizen of Lauderdale,with ample opportunity of knowing the public senti ment of that county, and, from the Lets of cur own observations, we arc ccnCdt tit ho has given a correct statement on tho subject. There is no combination formed, no plot or treason, wo: k ing against JuJjjc Mocnger. The people; have determined to have a change a rc.oluuen among the office holders, end as he has been on the Bench sevtn'ycars, they are determined lo have a change, desj i'e of fal! that abuse can say or do. We hope to hear nothing more from the Judge's organ on this subject, until he is Bjnl-payer, and a year or two since was hon ored witii a nomination for Congress on the anti-Democratic ticket, which he declined, not Lr any want of devofion to the principles of the party, but from a well-grounded fear if success. D.d not you, Iho. Sim, as well ls -cuisilf, op pose Judge Mounger on these ground.-, when heiun against Alsbury ? You did. We urge Jude M lunger's political incon sistencies against him, only in self defence, be causn we support none foroff.ee but True Dem ocrats. It is said a nnn may be a good Judge and not entertain principles iour.d id the Demo cratic creed This may or mey r.ct Lo true but we opine ho should not be carried about by every wind of doctiitie. For the loaves and fi.lies he should not forsake h i.g established principle, nor abandon well tih.d l;i. n Is. Live ly citizen of this town, and of this cei.i,'y, who then resided here, will bear us iut in the asser tion, that when Judge Mounger e;!i.b!'ah(d him self arming us, he was a most uncompromising oppose rfui xhx: doctrines of the Democratic par ty, yi vfterjiy of Gin. J.ickn. and a rabid op p.iei cf the Little Msgleldh, rs he InvMlous'y J-nom.'natiJ that steiing D. mocrat, Mjilin Yuii Buret), and a nullifur of the dirpest die, as he proudly avowed him? If. How then can ready to publish the true name of "A citizen j we b; siler.t ? As the Editor of the True Dim of LauJcrd Ac," t which time, we will pel- ocrat, we supjort r.cne for tfll-e, but V moerats. lish for their use, the true tunic cf ,fA Fi i r.d to Truth." Thut will be tu easy way to ccir.o at the object of your trouble, and if he turns out to be too respect ible for yc-u, blame your own folly.

Wi cannot but expriss our astonishment tit the Hi'swer of Mr. Jems to tho Jasper County Mtehvtniri Association. We expected th.it the auwer of M.. Joiits would at b ust he in accordance w ith the action of the lust Legisla ture of thu State of Missssippi, of w hieh he was a' member, but we are compe lled to say, that Mr. Joiks has either forgotten his ow n action in conjunction with that body, or is afraid at this lime to avow hiscgdlrse, wiih the inde pen dent action of the people's representative. We give below the substance of Mr. Jones' nnswe-r to the Mechanics' committee, taken from the Clarion of the 20th instant, and after that, the action of the last Legislature on the subject of changing the present system of labor in the Pe nitentiary, in order that our readers may judge for themselves. Mr. Jones siys 1st. "I have no objection to the employment of convicts in the manufacture of cotton bag ging, bale rope, negro clothing. whenever it is satisfactorily demonstrated to my mind that the'ehunge can be made without resort to taxa tion. 2d. It is flic opinion of many well informed men, that the present system of convict labor is susceptibl.0 of being so changed os not to coin pete with the mechanical interests ef the State." Now, Mr. Jones, in answer to these things, we will directly tax either your memory or your political integrity- the fust wc lay the charge to, until we hear f;om you. 1st. Did not the Governor in his mossicro, Jan. 1, 1811, (House jour. pp. 20 and 30.) re commend nnd urge upon your body, a change, if practicable, in the thai system of convict labor, and refer you to the letters of a certain Mr. Ab it n Jones for iuformatim. , 2d. Did not your committee on the Peniten tiary, at that session, with all the information thai could ut that time be tlicite-d by your body, viz. reports from the rupe rin!cndi.ms of the P; nitentiarics of Maryland, Ohio nnd Georgia, laid before them report to you the following language in the body of their report: " Your Committee are of the opinion that a change in t'ae mode of employing the convicts, from the mechanical branches of libur, to the manufac ture of coarse coiton Lbrics, cf various kirn', tf Bile Hope and fi'iging, either cf kerr.p or cotton, would bo us advant igeous to the t'Ute as it would be gict. fal to the mechnuies, ui.i those who dva! in tnraiufactured articles, as mer cluudiz. The iti sons which have brought th'j iiiindj of your committee to this conclusion, are nun.e reus, and confirm tlitie belief, that ce-u-sideiation of public policy un I economy, as wt i! us a just regard to the lights of fo e mid unim peachuUe citiz-ns, diianJ thocliatu'c."

Remove the barrier in out constitu tion and tliejr ingress will be rapid, and ulti mate ly tend to reduce the price of these already In re to increase) the production of our great staple (cotton) and thereby increase1 the evils w hich we even now labor unde r from its over production. Kentucky is tired cf her slave s it will not be long before she emancipate s them, or passes some law liberating all born after a certain period. Tin's must have the effect of throwing her slaves upon us in the South, and we may reasonably anticipate the most of them will find their way into this State, ii allowed. The number ofourslaves at thistime greully exceeds the number cf w hites, and to still in. crease i!:e number, will add to the danger we may at no distant day e ncounter from a separa tion from the North. The world is against our institution of slavery, and the North who en tailed this evil upon us (if it be an evil.) and who should be our friends, will be the first to set fiie to the magazine upon which we aie reposing. By allowing them free introduction jr. to the State, our countiy will again be infested with swarms of negro brokers and speculators, nnd the reckless spit it of speculation, w hich ut this time lies dormant, will again be lashed into flames, cud our State again immersed in those evils from which shu is now beginning to breathe1. As this is a question of perhaps more im Senatorial ttLSCTio. We onblial;. ed a communication from one ot our pa trons Mr. A. Picknrd, of Lauderdale, ou this subject. We done so because we know llin. Jacob Thompson 13 n favorite with all true De'inocnits but at the piv sent crisis he will ihil c Mtit; in cornpRtition with other prominent Democrats fur that H nior.

Wt have ndvice that tho Clarion has on other article: on ihe flection of Jndje favourincr the prospects of Ceil. Dawson why did not the Clarion publish that communica tion also l Wo have a copy of it furnish ed ns and feel hound to publish it as it is our patron's wish. We have many others over ihe proper name's of the writers on the same subject but will postpone their pub lication until we see if wc are to hare any more anonymous pufTtng-. The real names is the best way to know how things stand about ihe candidates. Tile foi lowing is the copy we received, atid publish it so that a just judgment may be formed nbotit matters and things in general. IiAUDEKDALE, Sept. 4ltl 1315. Mr. S. It. Adams: Sir! In rmr m. per (Eastern Clarion) of the 23d of August there is nu article about Judge Mounger and his vote in this county, and his stand ing high etc. There is mighty little of lhatnrlicle that 13 to be depended on.
