The Yazoo Democrat., 1860-03-24

We publish in another column an authentic
copy Of the resolutions adopted by the caucus
Of Democratic Senators We have examined
them critically, and can find nothing in them that
lie otjectionAble-nothing that every true national
man cannot heartily endorse. They clearly and
distinctly set forth the true doctrine on the Ter
ritorial question; there is no ambiguity, no
dodgng or evasion about them, and if the Char es-
ton Convention shall be as explicit in the decara-
ton of principle upon this subject and we bave no
reason to doubt it, the South will have no cause
to complain. While these resolutions claim moth
ing for the South that she is not clearly en-
titled to, and that every patriot in the North
ought not cheerfully to concede, there are bogus
DemOcrats-men who have no more claim to the
name of Democrat than the angel of darkness has
TO q seat in Heaven--who repudiate the sound doc
triDe enunciated. If the Charleston Conv enton
should fail to adopt the principles of these resolu-
tions, the Democratic party will become dsmoralized
and dsintegrated. and its nominations will fail to
command the respect of any portion of the South
ern people. But, if the Convention should adopt
the substance ifnot the form Of these resolutions,
the question will arise as to who will be the nom.
inee. 1t s impossible that Mr. Douglas can
receive the nomination, for his squatter sover-
eighty heresy would be in direct antagonism to
the platform, and even il he were 70 recant his
OdiOus doctrine, we would have no faith in his
sincerity. We cannot believe that the Charleston
Convention will be guilty Of the folly of foist-
ing upon The party man who would produce
schlsms in our ranks that would inevitably bring
upon us dsgraceful defeat, while there are hosts
of our men, good Had true, in the North az we'll
rs IN the South, who can commaad the united and
unbroken support of the Democracy. The South,
by courtesy, is entitled to the nominee for the
Presidency but We would not stckle about that,
where great principle Is at stake. But we have
right to it, and will claim of our Northern
brethren that they shall give us a sound man.
The great strength of the Democratic party lies in
the Southern States, and while we will not clAmor,
or demand that the nominee shall be Of our Sec
tiOn, we will insist that he shall be sound on the
question so vitality important to the South. Let
che Convention act wisely, adopt sound plat
form, and place upon the ticket true men, whether
they be Of the Northern or Southern section, and
the Democratic party, can march on 10 victory
more important in its bearings upon the future
destiny Of our great and glorious Republic than
any ever achieved by them in times gone by.
The Yazoo Democrat., 1860-03-24
YAaoo C1rr. March the l7th, 1880.

To the Editor Of the Yazoo Democrat
Mr. Editor In your paper of the 10 inst you say
you were auite,snrprised at seeing number o.
white women witnessing the hanging OF Eliza
thank Won sir consider myself Lady and 81
do several others who were there think themselves
Lady's.
You certainly do not know the difference be
tween Lady and a women l think il Is quit
time YOU were learning il you do not
A gentleman would not speak in the manner
Won have about females.
If you wish you may print this
Prom n Lady who was very much insulted BY
the Editor Of the YasoO Democrat
The above contribution 10 the literature o.
Mississippi, was found in our box few mornings
ago, and, notwithstanding its being anonymous
we cannot forego the satisfaction Of giving our
readers the benefit of it's perusal. As nm item
for a scrap book, we have no doubt it will be ex
tensively clipped. The lady who advances views
SO strikingly, at defiance with what we had con
sidered compatible with the finer feelings which
ought to characterize the gentler sex, will un.
doubtedy take her place in the rank of those
women known as strong minded" ones We
think the appeIation Of she men would become
them better. And while this one seems to hint
that there is difference between woman and a
lady, she has given us no very definite rules for
distinguishing between the two. Until she does
SO, which we hope will be shortly, We shall con-
tinue to Judge as heretofore.

OBITUARY.

JOHN g. POWELL, whose death, on the 18th
inst, at the residence of George NJ Powell, Of
Yazoo county, was announced in the last issue Of
this paper, was born in the town of Bowling Green,
Warren county, KY, some time in 1888, and was
in the 9th year of his age at the time of his
death.
His father, Maj 3. II. Powell, moved a number
Of years ago from Kentucky, and settled per.
manently in Madison connty, Miss, where he
resided until the date of his death, which occur
red about three years since, leaving many warm
and appreciative friends, who esteemed him for
the nobleness of his character, and for possess
ing in an eminent degree, all the social qualities
that challenge the respect of strangers and the
admiration of friends.
Although the friends and acquaintances of
ished, by his sunken features and contracted
frame, that the insatiste archer had truly chosen
shining mark, and was fast doing his work of
death. Yet, hope, with persuasive eloqence, buoy.
ed up his heart with the fattering conviction that
his was merely a temporary Illness for which
Nature, in due time would herself furnish a cure.
And with this conviction, in the incipency of his
Affections, continuing throughout the same, and
even lasting and consoing him--on the morning
of the day of his death he spoke cheerfully and
hopefully of the future.
Is it not well that it is so? Had a man no
such comforter as hope, during the slow wasting
away OF his physical energies-tbe gradual put
ting out of the vital spark within him, by the
fellest malady that flesh is heir to-what unm-
aginabe tortures would he suffer- What in
describable mysery would ifes franchises be-
stow upon him? But the great dispenser Of all
good, who knows and supplies our every want
has, in the fullness of His creative powers, ana
for wise purposes, arm ed his subjects with a
weapon which serves them in the darkest hour
q weapon of which neither suffering, sorrow pain,
nor even death can deprive them-hope
There are few the announcement of whose death
would have more panied the community than did
that of JOHN POWELL. Long a citizen Of Yazoo
City, known and beloved by nll--kind, social,
generous, frank and brave--never lived more
noble specimen of man-never died truer friend
IA more worthy and gallant gentleman.
May the evergreens that hang over, and the
grass that fringes and fonrishes around his last
resting place, symbol the freshness with which
his memory lives, and is cherished by those who
best knew and valued most bis manly virtues,
The Yazoo Democrat., 1860-03-24
Lace Cotton Seed, Sc Der Bu.heI

VIE planting community, desiring an EXTRA
COTTON, of fine quality, can find the Seel
at Mcssrs. Harrison & Hyatt, Yazoo City, with
samples of the lint. This has been classed with
he LONG staples by the factors of New Orleans;
IS soft, fine, silky, and at least one half inch
onger in staple than the common: is in color a
rich golden. Its yield is equal. If not superb"
to the ordinary Mexican cotton, picks easy h
from the extreme sickness Of its fibre, attaCir'
to the rough edges of the hull, resisting mo"
admirably the fall and winter weather This Cot
ton has bf en- cultivated four years, and although
a native Of a more Southern soil, is now accima
ted. Has been sold in small lots, consequently
it has never established it's real value. 1t seI'
readily for from three to four cents more pei
pound than the ordinary Cotton Letters tSOm
New Orleans Cotton Factors, who have examined
and sold the staple, can be seen at Mcssrs. BaFks
'lale & Netherlands, where there will be in store
quantity of the seed Tie lint sent with each

than come in contact with it.

Rights Democrat, and in every respect worthy Of
the support Of his party, and we'll qualified for
the office to which he aspires. The Opposition
have made a nomination, and are exerting all Of
their talent, tact and energy to defeat Mr.
Brougher. We appeal to the Democrats of Yazoo
to remember the day of election, and go to the
polls, every man, and cast a vote for Charles A.
Brougher for Secretary Of State.

A SyEIK OF WAR.-It seems to be the genera
impression of the Washington letter writers that
war with Mexico is inevitable. 1t is reduced
almost to n certainty that the McLane treaty will
be rejected by our government, and in that event
war will follow, and the consequence will be the
United States will acquire the remainder o.
Mexico The "Yazoo Rifles" will be just in time
to enter the contest for the laures that adorn the
warriors brow. We know they are "eager for
the fray" and that "grim-visaged war" has nc
terror for any member of that gallant corps, and
if our country should call for their services every
man will promptly respond.
