Mississippi Deleg atioa at Baltimore.

We have already mentioned that the Ms

UNANIMOUS vote to seats in what subsequently
proved to be the S Sluatter Sovereignty Rump

that they refused to take seats hecause coup
led with their admission WAS the act Of the
Convention, excluding the regularly appointed
representatives Of the Democracy from Ala
hama and Louis ana. ~ -;l5 q. -.at sag 3.
5The delegation from Mississippi had pre-
pared the following explanatory of their
views and of their position on re-enterins
the Convention, and had they taken their
seats they would have urged its insertion
iu the journals of ths Convention I
"1he undersigned are well assured Of the
gratifying fact that other States have respond
ed as cordially as the State of Mississippi to
the invitation addressed to all, and their dele
gates, clothed with like authority with our
selves, so far as it has been practicable to oh
taini it, doubtless come prepared as We do to
join in frateInal council and deliberation ON
the questions which distract the party. In
sp,red by the hope Of the preservation Mt the
institution and OF the integrity Uf the Demo
cratic party, We will not for moment permit
ourselves 10 doub; the existence OF the same
sentiments in equal ardor in the inlnd OF every
delegate here present from the. North. Sonth,
East CT West ; and so believing 1t Il but titi'
and reasonable to presume that the inv alton
extended to the several States to provide for
filling the vacanries in their respective deiega'
tons and to meet in-tfis city on the 18Th OF
this month, was not designed as an invitation
10 come here on the barron and thankless er-
rand OF ratifying past decisions or ioregone
conclusions, but as an invitation to meet TO-
gether truly to deliberate on the new and un-
expected posture OF; affairs in the Democratic
party, and to consider all the issues which
now embarrass its movements. In this hope,
they are confirmed by the action of the Com
ventiof, subsequent to the withdrawal oathe
delegates from Mississippi, and by the tone OF
the conservative Democratic press throughout
the country With this view, and in, th
spirit, the Democracy Of Mississippi, acting
as unit, have accredited their delegates here,
and they are now prepared to enter upon the
discharge Of the duties assigned them"

man, nor better citizen never lived. He was
abeuefdrtor Of his rce, for every enterprise
which looked to the public good, found in him a
steadfast champion; but the sunshine Of his
generous nature beamed brightest in social
life--ih the society Of friends--around his
own hearth-stoac. lie was man Of superior
cultivation, and nature had endowed him
with faculties which were evenly balanced
and most remarkably adjusted. He had long
been in iufirm health and when the final
summons came he met his fate with resigna.
ton and died like christian philosopher,
withthe utmostcomf and peace of mind
The tenement which encased his generous
soul, mingles with its mother earth but his
name and his virtues will be treasured as a
casket of unappreciib,e value in the hearts OF
his friends.
