The daily clarion. [volume] (Meridian, Miss.) 1863-1866, 1865-11-14

one of the most elaborate, convincing G
and statemanlike speeches we ever heard
in deliberative body. and this is the
universal testimony of all who were so
fortunate as 70 hear it. We have the
qualification to announce, that at the IN
stance of several members OF the Legs
lature, we shall in a few days have the
pleasure of laying the whole speech be-
fore the numerous readers of the Clarion.
Speaker Gholson, of Monroe, next ad
dressed the House. He admitted the
positions assumed by Mr.. Simrall but
proceeded to launch out into an extended
review of the Federal government and
its agents in the organization of our State
government. He referred to the incipient
measures innugurated by Gov. Clark-to
the commission sent to confer with the
Government at Washington, which came
back Johnsonized"-to the appointment
of Gov. Sharkey as Provisional Governor,
which he said was done without consti-
tutional authority to the action of the
Convention which did many things he
could not approve, under the pressure
of negro bayonets-to the demrnd that
we shall conciliate by following the shad
owing forth of Federal authorities from
Washington. He said he was desirous Of
knowing how much farther we would be
required to go. 1t was possible that We
might 60 so far as to have nothing left US
Ho roEorred to the demand that thG
Southern States should repudiate theil
war debt. He noticed how that debt wa
crested-the crcumst ances which at
tended the passage of the ordinance o
secession, the pulling down the Unior
flag and the hosting of the ''stars anc
bars ;" said he was an original sinner
and was frank to say that with the same
lights. before him he would do the sam,
again. He had one sound arm and leg
and he would peril both again, rathe
than act so basely as to repudiate the pay
nlent of the gallant boys who had op
posed their bodies to the advance of tn,
enemy who would degrade and dis,
honor the fair women of the South
He did not know that the people o
Mississippi would ever be able to pay tn
debt, but he was not willing to repudiat,
it. He pitched into the views presented
by Gen. Alcorn, whose speech and cours
he severely criticised. He then proceed
| ed to explain how far the negro could g
in obtal ming his rights under the laws a
they exist, but before concluding he CAV
way to a motion to adj 1urn TIL thi
morning, when he will resume his re
marks.
Upon the whole, Judge Gholsons
speech was regarded as very i'm
polite in many particulars, am
for the sake of his own fame, we regre
that he should feel called upon at this tim
while the State is struggling against grea
odds to regain her lost relations with tn
Federal Government and to recover tn
forfeited rights and privileges of her cit
zens, to deliver such a speech in the Car
ital. There are some portions of th
speech which we deem so impolitic tha
weshall not mention them, since we regar
it as unfortunate to the last degree, and il
this opinion we have the concurrence c
. large number of the most thoughtfu
members of the Legislature.

The Clarion and Judge cho,sou,

In the course of very extraordinary
speech, of Judge Gholson, at the capitol
yesterday afternoon, he took the occasion
to read the following extract from the
Clarion
We think it is clear that there is no
way by which we can be restored to Con
gress, military domination superseded by
civil authority, order and industry estab.
lished, the resources of the country de-
veloped, but in our cordial and earnest
support of the programme for restora-
ton laid down by President johnson.
The responsibility of accepting or reject
ing these conditions of union in a great de-
gree rests with the present Legislature.
Judge Gholson is mistaken when he
asserts that the Clarion is the official or
gan of the Legislature 1t is simply
Public Printer for the State, and as such
publishes the laws, &C., according,to the
regulations in such case made and pro.
vided. The Clarion has no authority to
speak officially or otherwise, the senti-
ments of the Legislature, and Judge
Gholson, in supposing that it has done
so, is not only mistaken in the scope of
its duties, but actually inexperienced
what it is expected to do as a public
journal.
Nor is this all. In asserting, as he did,
that the Clarion, in the above extract,
had threatened the legislature, he has done
US great injustice. There is no threat
in the above paragraph, but the as
sertion of the solemn truth, that there
is mo way" by which all the advantages
the people of Mississippi most desire,
can be so speedily secured but by their
cordial and earnest support of the pro-
gramme for restoration laid down by
President Johnson" Does Judge Ghol-
son doubt this T? Does he not know it to
be true? But whether true or not, where
is the threat The last sentence affirms
that "the responsibility of accepting or
rejecting these conditions of Union, in a
great degree, rests with the present Le-
gislature." Is not this true We know
many members who are almost oppressed
with their responsibility" They wish
to act Justly and fairly, and they realize
the difficulties which lie in the way of
every step they would take. In the
great work of rebuilding again the
temple of their civil rights, they expe-
rence many and grievous difficulties.
They, ifnot Judge Gholson. feel deeply
their responsibility" They would fall
in with the plan of President JOHNSON,
because they feel that he has come to
the rescue Of the South in the hour of
its greatest need, and because it seems
to be the only hope of escape from the |
difficulties, endorsements, and military |
under which our people are
20 long groaned. There is but one alter
native we must accept the Preside nt's |
plan, with all our rights restored, or re-
ect it, and continue TO wait for salvation
md deliverance. This is the logic se-
,uence of the unfortunate position in
which the events and casualties of war
nave placed US, and the imputation of
Judge GHoLsoN, that the Clarion in saying /
20, has INDUCED in a threat to the Legis-
kture, is as unjust as it is unfounded,

Inc new 1 ork PoSt learns, however,
that under the Mexican Constitution
Gen. Ortega, now in New York city, who
is the Chief Justice of the Mexican Re-
public, succeeds to the Presidency on the
occurrence of such a vacancy. We are
informed that Gen. Ortega is about to
leave the country for Mexico, to assume
the administration of the government
He will be accompanied by a number of
Mexican officers now here. 1t is sup
posed they will be able to carry with them
some material aid.
The Chicago Republican publishes a
complete list of the names of the mem
bers of the two Houses of the next Cen.
gress. In the Senate twenty-five States
are now represented by 33 Republicans
and Unionists, and IL Democrats.
According to the party divisions that
existed before the war, the House of
Representatives now stand l4O Republi-
cans and Unionlsts to 81 Democrats: but
on the great question of at once admitting
the representatives of the Southern
States, or of keeping them, or most of
them, for longer period in probation, it
il not probable that the same proportions
shall be preserved. Should all the South
ern States now without representation,
whose Senators and Representatives are
yet to be elected, choose Democrats op
posed to negro suffrage, as to be expected
the will do, and should they be admitted,
the Senate will then contain forty seven
Republicans and Unionists, and twenty.
seven Democrats; and the House of Rep.
resentatives would contain one hundred
and fifty Republicans and Unionists, 10
pinstY.tWo Democrats.
