The Mississippi Convention.

The Convention called under the Provisional
Government of Mississippi naturally attrrcts
much comment all over country, it being the
first held in accordance with President John
sons policy Of reconstruction. 1t was model
of industry and good order The Delegates
met, did their work and went home. They
looked facts right squarely in the face and
wasted little time in empty oratory or idle lam.
enta1ons. The result must be highly crafty
ing to the President and to the friends of his
policy of reconstruction. The following are the
leading points Of their work:
l. Repeal of the ordinance of secession mass
ed in 1851, and all laws since passed by the
Legislature conflicting with the Constitution Of
the United States or inconsistent with the
standing OF Mississippi as loyal State in the
Union.
2 Slavery or involuntary servitude, except
for crime, has been forever abolished in the
State of Mississippi.
3. An election for members of Congress and
State officers has been ordered to be held on the
first Monday in October next
4. formal appeal has been made to Presi.
dent johnson by the Convention to extend par
don to Jefferson Davis. fal- na = iT
Judge Fisher who was nominated for Gov
ernor, is said to be very good man. A copy
OF the New Constitution has been submitted to
the President, who, it is said, will submit it to
the coming Congress. @ il ia
There seems to have been disposition brave
ly to accept the results of the war, and to set
about restoring its rayages with hearty good
will. 1t will be noticed that the Convention
says nothing oflgradual or compensated eman-
clpation. On the whole, the New Constitution
OF Mississippi is as fair document as we could
expect from that latitude, making due allow
ance for the prejudices of its trainers. Aoi'

Breckenridge.

The storm of rebellion has strewn its wrecks
of career and character far and wide throughout
the world. Canada, Mexico, the West Indies,
South America and Europe, all have their share
of homeless outcasts, who lost all but Life in
their mad effort to overthrow their government.
Of all the number, none fell SO high as John c.
Breckenridge. After the final surrender he es-
capped from Florida TO Cuba in boat thence
took passage to England, from whence he sailed
for Canada where he landed few weeks ago.
/ Of all the perjured traitors none is more emil
nently guilty than Jno. G.. Breckenridge. His
native State, Kentucky, never seeded The ma
ton honored him with the second Office in its
gift and felt proud of his rising talents and the
promise of his future greatness? In 1860 he was
the candidate of a powerful party for the Presi-
dency.. Yet even while Vice-President, he was
plotting treason with the leading men of the
South, and, regardless of his solemn oath entered
the military service of the rebellion in the earlier
days of the war 9aa iaia oaa asm aa a."
AT the early age of A he is a wanderer and
an outcast. He burdens the Earth with his gull
ty presence. No country owns him, no asylum
invites him. His prospects are gone, his once
brilliant course is ended. He has no name but
guilt, no fame but infamy A stain Of blood is on
his hands which all great Neptune ocean cannot
wash out. Henceforth he will but serve to illus
trate the fearful retribution of Justice.

A Word to Union Men.

Next Saturday the loyal people Of the county
are requested to hold their Primary Meetings, for
the election of Delegates to the nominating con-
vention which meets at Towsontown the follow
ing Wednesday. II is well known that political
Cow entons frequently fail TO express the wishes
Candidates are often forced upon them and Res
oIutions crammed down their throats, not by
any means to their liking, and which they swal-
low only from desire to give strength and har-
mony to the party. A few men in Convention,
generally representing the interest of some par
ticular person, cut and dry the resolutions, make
the nominations and manage all the proceedings.
AS they whistle the balance dance, and it is sell
dom that any one is courageous enough to resist
and expose the miserable quackery that is prac-
ticed on the people, ~ 5-L5o
The only remedy for this evil is at the Prma-
ry Meetings. So little attention IS paid to these
meetings by the mass Of the voters, that a few
men in each District, and they often not its best
citizens, can assemble together, 60 through the
farce of an election and send Delegates of their
own narrow preference to represent the entire
District in Convention. If people would realize
the Importance Of Primary Meetings and attend
them in their strength, they could prevent such
a resultant would secure themselves against i'm
position. We hope the loyal people Of the conn
ty will keep this in mind and poll a respectable
vote at the coming Primary Meetings Send in
telligent, independent, incorruptible men to the
Convention. Let them be pledged to no partic-
ular candidate, bound to no particular partizan.
Let them be such as will feel an honest RESPONSE
biliy of their work, and will carefully select the
candidates from the best men in the county. 1t
is time that the voice of faction be hushed.--
Time that personal quarrels and personal vim
dictiveness no longer distract the Union party
Time that the loyal people be united in a solid
Union. With little mutual concession, little
mutual consideration of claims, this can be ac-
complished. rssdo 8Gi can't sid gd &.
We hope to see harmonious Convention, free
from faction and partisanship, that will give US
a ticket upon which the great body of Union men
can cheerfully unite.

The odd FeIIows Celebration.

Wednesday last will ever be held in remember
ance by the Independent Order of Odd Fellows
in the United States twas the day chosen for
the dedication of the Monument erected to Thomas
Wildey. founder Of the order in this country -
The monument stands on the highest point of
Broadway st. Baltimore, is 50 feet in heighth,
surmounted by an emblematic figure of Charity
and is throughout Of most beautiful design and
construction.
Every State and Territory in the Union was
represented on the occasion. The procession was
one of the largest and grandest ever witnessed In
this country, requiring one hour and ten min
utes to pass given point. In addition to the
Lodges of Baltimore city and from various parts
of this State large delegations were present from
neighboring States, accompanied by Brass Bands
bearing banners and dressed in the Regalia of
the order Ridgely Encampment and Towson
Lodge No 70 from this place. the former num-
boring 25 members, the latter SO, went down to
the city early in the morning in special cars pro-
vided by the R. r. Co.. Hereford Lodge, 45
members Mt. Zion Lodge, Pikesville, 40 MEM
bers and Henry Clay Lodge, Reisterstown, 60
members, were also present. ~.
Among the interesting features of the process
sion were FIVE large cars, each drawn by six
horses and each containing about sixty little
girls dressed in white representing the Female
Orphans in care of the order. ~ eai a3goV
Also the carriage bearing the tent in which
was seated the High Priest, Andrew E. Warner
one of the Oldest and most respected citizens OF
Baltimore. At the dedicatory ceremonies inter-
esting addresses were made by leading officers of
the order from different States Of the Union and
also by Lieut. Gov. Cox Of this State. = 9fi q"
President Johnson with several members of the
Cabinet had promised to be present, but were
unavoidably prevented from coming. Such a
reunion, bringing together Brothers from all Sec
tons of the country, cannot fail of good effect in
restoring that kindiness of feeling which the ma
ton SO much needs at this time. ti l'''..
The first permanent Lodge Of Odd Fellows in
the U. S. was Washington Lodge No. Of Bal
timore, organized by Thomas Wildey, April
26th 1919. Mr.. Wildey was an Englishman by
birth and came to this country in 1917, at the
age of "a years. He died at Baltimore in 1861.
