THE m1ss1ss1PPx CONVENTION.

By adyices to August 17th, from Jackson,
an indication Is given Of the complexion Of
the Mississippi Convention. This being the
first Of the reconstruction conventions, It Is
naturally looked to with some Interest ns III,
index OF those that arc to follow. Though
nothing has get been definitely accomplished,
we may tn1cE, from the progress making, what
will be accomplished. The first ordinance
usksed to It's first reading rntif:s not only oil

well as Ill marriages, contracts and sales, but

- To tic former there can be no objection. To
the latter, the objection would be oyerwhclm.
Ing. To ratifJ NIL the State laws passed by
the rebel Legislature OF Mississippi, is to ratify
the rcbel debt incurred By Mississippi 10 fight

the snnc purpose. Congress will hardly raj

dinspee passed TO flrst reading Has one pro-

The third step was the adoption Of N memo

Our evening contemporary insists {as though
anybody doubted IT., that II can afford 10 do
The city printing for great deal less money
than the price fixed by the Council. The
public know TINT the Journal could afford to
do II for nothing. The official Council pro-
ceedings would give zcst to It's columns, and
itt should publish them as leading editorials,
as The Onion did last year, It's readers would
be greatly benefited and It's circulation In
;. creased. The City Comptrollcr's financial
statements would be lively and sparkling, in
place Of the dry chips which ii publishes as
news, while the sidewalk notices and special
assessments Tould bc read with avid
ity in It's local columns, The Journal can
do this, however. It can copy the Council
proceedings, md other Official matter, hom
the TRIBUNE, as II docs its other news, and
derive great benefit theredom. It cannot be
elected corporation newspaper this year, but
: ii may, by adopting the policy we have
pointed out, attain sufficient circulation and
influence in the community To be elected ut
somc future time"
Oar evening contemporary persists in hold
ing up the idea that the Cguncl have voted to
pay tho samc price for the city printing this
year that was paid last year, to which price
the. Tn1BUxE then took exceptions We have
published the record over and over again,
showing that the price this year Is ssh per
