and organization Of the party in this State, at
! Jackson, on the third Monday in September, and
ina, the different Associations throughout the
State be requested 10 send Delegates thereto"
Addressing ourselves 10 Democrats, It might
| be deemed superhuous for Us 10 add word as to
the Importance of these resolutions, and unneces-
sary TO say aught in support of that solemn oblI-
pa,ion by which every member 1.-THE Democratic
Party throughout Mississippi should feel himself
| hound to use his Utmost influence To carry them
OUTPUT at a crisis like this we feel we cannot
say or do too much 10 impress upon our Demo-
| cratic brethren every where the necessity Of IN
slant and effective organization. II an infringe

rights are in danger "-and the opponents OF
grand splendid central government are called TO
battle for their principles. Nor is the enemy be-
meath US in numbers or strength. WIN the mere
tics of all parties as their allies, the unhoy colhO
nation have sworn opposition to the KNIFE
Watchful as eager, and industrious as Intr02o,
they spars no pains 10 effect their end-talsehood
fraud and detraclon are their open weapons Of
warfare and no sratagem or device will be left
untried to effect their unhaowed purpose. But
they will be met and conqueredH If the peo-
pie ale aroused November will echo back the
death drge Of coalition which is a disgrace 10 q
land or ireedom But, as the price Of liberty is
eternal vigilance, so there is no success without
labor. When, therefore, the broad pennant of e.
quail laws, equal rights, and equal privileges, is
flung calamity to the breeze, or country expects
every man to do his duty.
The Democrats of Warren have sci their bfe-
thren an example which they fondy hope will ev.
cry where be followed Though in the hot.bed
of Whiggerythls little band has shouted the watch
cry of Rally! and to every county in the State
would they send forth the tocsin note Of prepare
ton. They feel the justice Of the cause, and
they know 1t Is Strengthening. The braggau
threats Of their foes only stimulate them to exer-
ton, and they glory that Old Warren will put forth
4 stronger arm in November than has, for six
years before, marked her struggles against Fede-
raj aggression. But they look to their brethren
every where for aid, and call upon them promptly
to come forth to the rescue. Every thing must
depend on thorough and jealous organization, and
these resolutions show in what way they think ii
to be gained. let Democratic Associations be
every where formed-let every Democrat be ur.
ged to join them Let not a want of members
prevent their formation-if tetc, let them be fol.
mdabIe. Neither in these counties whore they
are conscious Of power let a knowledge of this
TACT keep them from coming forth, in order thai
their strength may be known. Let the distinguish.
cd men every where be invoked 10 come forth and
give their time and talents to this holy cause Let
the Federal myrmidons be met a, every pass and
on every point, and let their frauds and their her.
estes be both exploded and exposed. From such
conflict we can have nothing to fear.
Most especially would we recommend to our
Democratic ibrethren the proposition Of u State
Convention nj Jackson,in September Let NEE.
tlngs be forthwith called in every County in the
State and lei delegates be appointed--let them
be talented and influential men--le nothing de.
'ain them from attendlng,and let them come laden
WIN Information as 10 tho strength and state Of
parties IN then respective districts. We must not
sleep on our arms every thing depends upon
walchlulnesS, Immunity and exertlon How can
ms be better obtained than by free communion
OF hepuDlicaRs IRON every portion Of our State,
al one central point where, by union Of informa.
ton and union Of effort, we must give strength TO
common cause Let, them no county be un.
represented there. Let that Convention be one
which shall do honor to our State, do honor 10 our
cause and DO honor 10 the virtue and intelligence
OF The people. Let il be The literal precursor Of
that majesty and might to which our foes have
yielded and must yield in November, when, by
one terrific burst Of Indignation reproductions free
people shall annhilate a party that would dare
ask their sutfrages for dumb and irresponsible
IDOL! Let this spirit animate US, and lei US 90
forth conquerng apd 10 conquer-s satisfied and
convinced that with the justice Of our cause, and
with energy and zeal to sustain it, proud and
glorious victory awaits us. Yours Rnsneclfnllu
