Ink MISSISSIPPI OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. DAVIS
The Mississippi State Convention, called to-
gether under the judicious management Of Pro-
visional Governor Sbarkey, has done its ap-
pointed work and adjourned. A complimentary
Sharkey shows that the work done gives salts
faction at Washington. The old State consti-
tuition, which was a good one in its day, has
been remodelled to At the new order Of things,
including the abolition Of slavery, leaving the
negro suffrage question tor future considera.
ton. The constitutional amendment abolish
ing slavery II was voted by very large ma
jority should not be submitted for ratification
to the people, and doubtless for the all-sufIi
Gent reason that Congress has directed that
the ratification shall be by the legislatures of
the several States. The first Legislature of
Mississippi, as returned to her proper allc-
glance, will rai.fy the amendment, and will
probably take some steps in regard to negro
suffrage that will secure her prompt restoration
to Congress in stopping the clamor Of the abo-
uHon radicals.
A petition praying for a pardon to JEFF
Davis and the rebel Governor Clark, and
signed by over four thousand ladies, was
adopted by the Convention, together with
resolution requesting the presiding ofhcer
thereof to forward said petition to the President
Of the United States. JEFF Davis is Mississip-
plan, and this sympathy Of the ladies Of the
State in his behalf is natural and commenda-
BILE, whatever may be the extent OF bis sins
and transgresaions as the head traitor Of tho
rebellion. We presume, too, that the good
spirit and activity shown by the people Of Mis-
sissippi in this work Of reconstruction will not
he forgotten by the President, should the fate
Of JEFF Davis after the trial Of his case, be left
to the Presidents discretion It will be no
small circumstances in favor Of clcmency TO
Davis should Mississippi his own State, in fol-
lowing up her good work Of restoration to the
Union, he the first Of the seven original States
of the so-called confoderacy to get back into
Coogress.
