The Democrat is constrained to express a feeling of deep and sincere regret that Mr. W.

A S. Wheeler, one of our most prominent citizens and a distinguished member of the Board of Aldermen should be placed in the embarrassing attitude of a disxipaalified elector. That this unfortunate cir -i-uiHBtance is owiiir to no fault of his will be acknowledged by all. No man who has even the slightest acquaintance with Mr. Wheeler could conceive the idea that hu would prove delinquent in a matter such a small pica-yunish amount is involved.

It has been his pb-asure to subscribe of hin means to every charity and he hag contributed without one query as to the worth or needs of the prospective beneficiary. lie is a most pubic spirited gentlleman. He has devoted hi time, money and influence to the promotion of the best interests of Natchez and as a member of the Board of Aldermen he earned the applause of every man in the city. He is a man whose personal iu every way reflected (freat credit upon the city. We tnoht hoartily express the wish that sorno means could be found by which can remain in office, but the law for.

bids, and it is this same law which places a high -toned, honorable (fentle-mau in an embarrassing posittion for the moment. Law is supposed to be founded npon justice, reason and equity, but this is a case where the law works an injusticet. where it is. most unreasonable ami equity is an unknown quantity.
