tuition of the United States, and the Con
sttution and laws of Mississippi, prior TO
the secession of the State. has completed
its work and adjourned sine de We
have before us the official proceedings Of
the first four days of the session, consist
ing chiefly of ordinances offered. read the
first time, and ordered printed, and the
majority and minority reports of the
special committee on ordinances and laws,
As these reports were probably modified
in many particulars before they were
finally passed upon, it is not necessary
to cucumber our columns with them
The telegraph. however. has kept Us
advised of the action of the Convention,
and we are able to state in outline. It's
important acts. They are:
LIST The repeal of the ordinance OF Sc
cession adopted and approved the 9th
day of January 1861, entitled "An ordi-
nance to dissolve the union between the
State of Mississippi and other States uni
ted with her under the compact entitled
the Constitution of the United States of
America" and all ordinances and resolu-
tions of said Convention, together with
all laws since passed by the Legislature
conflicting with the Constitution of the
United States, or inconsistent with the
restored relation of the State to the Fed
eral Union.
I'd. The adjustment of slavery OF IN
voluntary servitude, except or crime.
Sd. The ordering of an election Tor
members of Congress and State officers
to be held on the first Monday in Oeie-
Der next
4th. The adoption OF an appeal to the
President for the pardon of Jefferson Da-
Wis.
A considerable number of ordinances
were presented, and in some form their
substances adopted, designed to confirm
such judicial acts as had taken place
since January 9, 1861, and " hich are not
inconsistent with the laws of the State
prior to that date, or in contrayention of
the Constitution and laws of the United
States The design of these ordinances
is to prevent confusion in the civil affairs
of the State
Nothing was said of the amendments
to the Constitution of the United States
abollshlng slavery 1t was the subject OF
discussion in the newspapers of Missis-
sippi prior to the assembling of the Con
vention An adroit writer suggested
that the ostensible object of the amend
ment would be accomplished if the Con
vention should by its own act, abolish
slavery in the State, and thus the dan
gers of Congressional interference in reg
ulating the status of the freedmen. which
are supposed to lurk some where in the
