Amite County, Ma ~ 18Th, 1897.


Mr.. Hdli;--l was much pleased, in look
ing over the last number ofthe Liberty
Advocate, TO perceive that public opinion
is becoming awake on the subject of the
next general election. There is not much
doubt but there will be many important
subjects brought before the Legislature al
its next regular session; and It isinipor4
tant that Amite should be represented by
the best talents she can command. vi wa

indicative Of the quarter to which the
public is likely to look, in making selec.

know OF no man who can, in my opinion.
bring forward more claims to the support
OF his fellow citizens than Mr.. Graves,
lie has talents to command respect, and
the independence to avow his opinions at
all times, and defend the interest of his
constituents. lie has also-if | am not
mistaken--the claim Of being a aatipe OF
Amite county, which is recognized by
many as tantamcunt to any other that can
be brought forward. This prediction in
favor Of those that are raised among US,
though itmay be carried to extremes. IS.
in general, a commemorate trait in d man i
character; and it is not only wise policy,
but il is our 6oundea duty, 10 foster and
bring forward native talent, whenever and
wherever found. Under this view Of the
subject, ! cannot but think, that, if talents,
if zeal and independence OF mind, and be-
ing native Of the county, are strong
claims in favor of man, Mr. Graves
must stand among the most prominent
men Of our county. These remarks are
not offered as an empty puff, but a tribute
which the writer thinks Justly due the
merits Of Mr.. Graves. He has not the
pleasure. even Of ,a,personal acquaintance
with him, but has formed his opinion from
the perusal Of The many editorial articles
in the Advocate, and he cannot, therefore.

gerouS, as they come disrobed Of every
alarming feature, disarmed Of all terror
They WOO US insensibly into calm indif-
ference, and while we are tamely yielding
to the gentle advances of this euii genius,
ere we are aware, an iron despotism may
have erected its dominion on the ruins Of
our so much boasted liberty. Beware,
my countrymen, how you repose on the
bosom of this traitorous Demon, that has
so often luiled to sleep, with its syren
voice, the faithful sentinel on the watch
tower, mounted the rampant, seized the
diadem, and brandished its blood y sceptre
over the fallen liberties of millions of hui
man beings. The tyrant's march is ever
onward, onward; but it is always soltened
by so many fallacious appearances, and
professions Of friendship, disguised under
such an imposing mask that we are en-
chanted, and ere the charm is dissolved, it
has thrown the torch Of confagration into
the temple of freedom, Vfning our doom
on the heaps ofruins, and irrevocably fas-

the artful shouts of "People" and "Demo-
cracy" becalm our apprehensions, nor the
errors Of the sword overawe us into sub |

power; but on our shield let us inscribe
this dear and sacred motto, Liberty or
Death" the rallying sign of the champions
of the enslaved in every cline. Around it
let us gather, in the exalted remembrance
of revolutionary triumphs, to measure
swords with the mercenary legions of
Despotism in defence Of those inestimable

ABOLITION AND AMALGAMATIoN.-The
Abolition Convention at Harrisburg. is
said to be attended by delegates from the
several New England States, as we'll as
from New York, New Jersey and Ohio,
and numbers among its members, were
negroes. According to Philadelphia
correspondent, considerable feeliag was
created by speech from Mr. Tappan, in
which he expressed his disapprobation
that some Of the coored delegates were
not among the officers, and declared it un-
becoming the Convention that the blacks
were obliged to take separate separate
seats!!

Ertract q letter from the correspondent
Of the .. s. Telegraph, dated, Harris
burg, Pa, February 23d. 1887.
DEAR SIR:-The Abolition Convention
for the formation of tate-Anti-Slavery
Society, has just closed its sittings in this
city. The public prints of both political
parties, will. undoubtedly, endeavor tc
hide its Importance from The people Of the
South. But it is, in truth, the most impor.
tant movement which these men have
ever made. 1t is like establishing an abo-
Iltlon mandatory in the slave States
themselves. 1t is desi gned to act upon
Virginia, Delaware and Maryland; and it
will act with tremendous effect. Already
the abolition question is mooted in Della
ware, and yet the South is told that the
fanatics can do nothing. The falsehood
Of Governor Marcy's message in this res
pect, should be exposed, or the South will
soon find that it has been betrayed by its
pretended friends.
But, to the Convention. Two HUNDRED
DELEGATES,-men whom member of the
Legislature in his speech has pronounced
"equal in responsibility, talents, and in
tegrity, to any in the State" men of wealth
and influence, have been convened for the
last three days. Tappan, Scott, Phelps,
Burleigh, Whittier, and others from diff
ferent sections of the country, we're with
them. DR.. F. julius LIE Meyne, of Wash
ngton CO., man of powerful intellect,
great personal Influence, and an eloquent
speaker presided over the meeting. Res
olutions, addresses, &c, and, mark this,

State."-k~0 Men of all parties, from the
whole-hog Dallas democrat to the high
toned lederalist, have joined hands in this
matter, and, to crown all, the sum of ten
thousand fire hmsdred dollars, has been
pledged or paid to carry on the mighty
operations of this truly formidable Soci-
ETY., BENJAMIN LUNDY, the earliest and
most interchangeable Of this band, is to edit
the official organ of the Society at Phila-
de- phia.
Such are the facts in the case. Tnteres-
ted politicians may seek TO hide them, but
the deluson cannot last long. The mass
es in Pennsylvania, under the rousing ell
Oquence of such lecturers as Burleigh,
Gould, and others, are fast be-
coming abolitionized, and will soon send
their petitions and circumstances, ay, and
abolition Congressman with them, like the
frogs of Egypt, into the Halls of Congress.
