Inauguration OF the New Governor OF
Miss1syippi.

Hon. John j. Pettus, the newly elected democratic
Governor Of Mississippi, was nauguraed at Jackson with
considerable pomp the 2ls inst In his inaugural ad
dress, the Governor said he regarded the scene at
Harpers Ferry rash attempt to put the black
republican creed into practical operation He thought IL
the beginning Of the end of the .rreprcssbe conflict"
He alluded to the fact that the ntsavey party had OBJ
tanned the control OF the State Of nearly all
the non slavcholdng States, where the constitutional
rights OF Southern citizens were violated their property
destroyed stolen, and their lives copardzed while the
federal government either unwilling unable to
guard the rights redress the wrongs OF Shareholders
This he regarded only of their modes OF making
war upon the institution OF slavery. They are now
gathering their forces to take under their control the
powers of the federal government to pcrvert from
the destruction of the interests Of the South Their
aggressons would then become ntoerable and he would
turn from to any remedy that God nature may pu,
In our hands, The black republican party recognizes
higher law than the Constitution they have violated its
plain provisions in the past and he thinks the expectation
that the institution Of slavery will be saved from desruc
ton by the barriers OF the Constitution when the black
republican party control the affairs Of the federal govern
ment, 10 as vain the prayer OF the heather to his
wooden god The only hope he had was In the power OF
the united voice Of the South by telling them thus FAR
shalt thou 60 and farther. II would bring them 10
their senses and band OF patriots who would preserve
the Union would rally TO support In the North
But II 70 said this would endanger the Union Said he,
~ the Union fall In the conflict II will only crush those
who are the authors Of this strife" "he battles Of the
Revolution were fought not that the colonies might be
united, but that the colonies might be free, and perish
my name among men II ever am found setting tho form
Of the government above the freedom Of this people"
