~ Of said committee 10 report their proceedings
to anadiourned meeting Of those present, 70 be
held at Benton on the first Monday Of May next
Resolred, That we, as one man, respond to the
nomination Of the Republican patriots Harrison
and Tyler, and that whilst we cannot but con-
gratulate the whole country upon these most aus
5icious nominations, and firmly believe that their
elections are now certain, we esteem il no less a
patriotic than a solemn duty devovng upon US, as
citizens OF tuIb UluCu WIoHHeu uuk Sill uNAt A6-
pubIic, to uso all honorable means 10 advance
their elections to the Offices Of President and
Vice President Of the United States, and a one
OF the many means within the grasp of the people
10 effect that most desirable event.
Resolred, That our friends throughout the coun-
ty be requested to assemble at their respective
places Of voting and at once form "TiPPecanos
Clubs,' as auxiliary to tie one proposed 10 be
formed at the county seat.
ResolDed, That unless the reelection Of Mr.
Van Buren, is defeated, this country must, for
years il not through all time, be nlanicled with
the most deadly policy to its prosperity, and in
stead Of obtaining relief from our present unpar-
raleled pecuniaTy and domestic suiierings, he
People will be plunged still deeper into the whirl
pool of Experiments, which was undiscovered I'M
iii this administration came into power, the appli-
cations Of which. to our National and State Coun-
ellis, have resulted in destroying trade-uProotng
conidence--flling every part Of the country with
the sickly spectres OF poUerty and ruin, and whole
country with rotten and still rotting currency.
Resotued, That the sentiment recently Svowed
in the United States Senate by Messrs. GTundy,
Benton and Buchanan, and echoed by the Presi-
DENTS mouth-piece, the ,Globe,' that labor Of all
kinds is 10 be reduced, is with the most vital
interests of this cOuntTy-is anti Republican and
unworthy to be avowed by an American citizen,
who has the interests of his country at heart more
than the ACCOMPLISHMENTS Of Office holders and
Office seekers.
| ResoLUed, That in the person of the venerable
Harrison, we find united the Civiian-the Sol
der and the Patriot, whose retired life, for ten
years past, aptly fits him to ally, by his wisdom
and his prudence, the angry party chickering's with
which our country has been torn for twelve years
and restore to our National Legislative Councils
that harmony and patriotism which should cha
racterize the deliberations of Republican Legisa
lature, whose. aim is to advance the happiness
and we'll being Of the whole people.
Res0lUed, That we live in a remarkable age ;
with the freest government upon earths we have
been experimenting with theories OF despotism--
with all the elements of prosperity, we have for
! three years stood upon the verge of Tuin-wlth
| the best currency the world ever saw, and MAJ
tional Treasury full to electromagnetic one has
been wantony destroyed, and the other is utterly
bankrupt. We have democracy laboring for
| the enlargement of Executive poweT-reaching
| forward TO the worst forms of consolidation-and
making war upon the States and their institutions
to effect its purposes.--It has made its way into
/ the Judiciary--it has humbled the Senate, and
made it tho disgusting arena bipartisan trumphs
and hussas, and committed the loulest sacrilege
upon its hitherto invioiate recOrds-and growing
holder according to the measure of its success, it
| has lately thrust from the halls of Congress the
! legal representatives of State, and now stands
with its foot upon the sovereignty OfNew Jersey.
| Therefore,
Belt Reslred soIenanly, Sy all of the people of
Yazoo county who are opposed to these sad and
melancholy evidences of'despotic usurpation, and
who are opposed to the re-ciectien Of Mr.. Van Blu
rem the Presidency, that we will enter the Pre-
sidential contest, now animaiing the people Of
the United States in every quarter, with ''hearts'
and hands'' resolved to stand by the Constitution
and the laws, and we will lend the election of
! WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON andJOHN
TYLER sleepless and warm support
On motion, Of Abbey, the resolutions were
adopted.
In accordance with the first resolution, the
Chair appointed DR.. B. r. Wilkinson, Chas. E.
