members Of the Mississippi Legislature oppos-
ed to the repudiationof the State bonds sold on
account of the Planters Bank, TO meet in the
hall of the House of Representatives, without
distinction of party, on the evening of the 10Th

overwhelming majority TO make immediate
provision, by some plan of financial charac-

demption of the State faith. Nineteen Sena-
tors and seventy Representatives voted in ia
vor of the Tesolution, and only one Senator
and four Representatives against it."
