pair that confidence by dcprlving II ol rh1r.
lcicf for fidelity 10 it, solemn engagements, it
to strike blow at the pillars and foundations
ol tho social lAbric-it IS stabbng the system
IN its heart.
Resoired, That the attempt 10 make Hs.
stssippi epuitatio1 respectable in the eyes Of
mankind, by calling to its aid the pretended
authority of lIusIfi1us names, aud tuciug is
fnf ia. In. 4 ft. al
democratic creed, IS to Prolane the names Of
the immortal sages and patriots, whom we de.
light to honor as the pioneers and apostles of
our political faith. We deny that those cmi-
nent men ever held or taught, that those who
borrow money and use ii and enjoy the same,
are not bound in honor and fairness 10 return
il in their generation. On the contrary. we
that the fundamental maxim of those
mortal fathers, was that those who contract
by pledge of the public faith, and receive
were bound TO tax themselves
FOR prompt and punctual payment of the |
1ebt, and not throw the burthen upon future !
generation.
ResoIved, That even if it could be shown
that we are wrong in our reading of the text
of the republican fathers, we have yet left
still higher authority than they, with which to
confront the dogma of Reputation, viz The
aw of God requires all men to be Just and
toneSt, and no human authorlty-nay, not OF
al the politicians on earth can avail to nullify
or contravene this divine statute.
ReS0tUed, That we have entire confidence
n the capacity and integrity of the Honorable
Fhos II. Williams, of Pontotoc, and recon-
mend him as suitable candidate to be sup
ported by the bond-payers Of Mississippi, for
he office of Governor, at the coming election
n November next
Mr.. Claiborne, who differed with the other
,ortion oil the committee in their suggestions,
'llered series of resolutions, which he advo-
'ated with great zeal, expressing the declared
constitutional Indebtedness existing upon the
State in the Planters Bank bonds, and recon-
nending that proper measures be taken by our
legislature to provide for this obligation, but
hat the bonds of the Union Bank should be
ubmtted 10 the courts of the country.
Gen. Quitman responded. to Mr.. Claiborne,
n support of the preamble and resolutions as
eported by the committee, and upon the ques-
ion being called, they We're triumphantly
dopted.
After the adoption of the report of the com,
1ttee, Capt hewitt introduced the following
which was declared by the Chair
dopted, by a majority of two of those aoting,)
cted on by the meeting, under the impress.
on that it did not conflict with the resolutions
revously adopted. The Chair not being ac
tainted with the sentiments of the voters,
ounted all who voted, amongst whom were
sveral anti-bonders, and one or two who mis-
pprehended the purport of the resolutions.
ReSolved, That this meeting recommend
ld earnestly invite all democrats, of what
YER persuasion on the bond paying question,
} hold primary meetings throughout the
tate, in The several counties, and appoint del
gates, with power to settle all questions Of
ference in the democratic party Of this
tate, on the 4th day of July next.
On motion of Mr.. Vanhoesen,
Resolved, That copy of the proceedings be :
Finished the papers of the city for publica- !
on.
On motion, the meeting adjourned.
