ODIrUARY.-The Democratic State Rights
Party of Mississippi" breathed its last in the
city of Jackson, on the 10th day of September
The said organization was suddenly taken i'll on
the second Tuesday Of September and continued
rapidly to decline up to the period Of its dsso-
luton. During its illness it was waited upon
by a committee, Of whom E. G. Wilkinson was
chairman, and received all the aid and attention
it was possible to bestow upon it. Early on the
morning of its decease, the Central Committee
proceeded to the sanctum of the Mississppian
Office and announced the melancholy tidings,
when, rs if by magic, the old Democratic party,
which the same gentleman had long since de-
clared defunct, appeared before them exhumed
and resuscitated in all the vigor Of youth, that
the same breeze which waited to other climes
their lamentations Of bereavement, carried them
shouts of JOY on account of the second advent of
the Democratic party. We have but little to say
of the defunct organization. Its career was brief
yet boisterous in the extreme. Reguiescdt, ETC.

Light and airy as a fairy
Sweeter than the rose in June,
Is my darling little Mary,
With a voice Of heavenly tune.
Oh love her beyond measured
She Il artless, frank and free
And broad earth holds not a treasure
Like my Mary's smiles to me.
Love like mine can never vary
Years on years may onward roll,
But my heart is true to Mary
