THE RIGHT PosITIoN.

In the annexed extract from the Richmond
W1ig there is compressed the entire subject in a
nutshell, as to the duty Of the South to reject the
proposed Constitutional Amendment. The South
can gain nothing By its adoption, while they can
not possibly incur loss by its rejection:
Suppose the amendment rejected, what will fol-
lows All the Radicals can do is to keep us un-
represented, as we now are. They dare not go
further. The public sentiment Of the North would
revolt ct further wrong or injury to us.
Let the South be calm but firm. Let her return
q determined ''No" to the proposition TO amend
the Constitution. Let her say: We are content to
stand by the bargain our fathers made with your
fathers, but we are unwilling to change it or to
enter into o new one on the terms you propose.
On this ground we can stand immovably. Ten
Southern States can defeat the amendment. They
will stand on the Constitution as il is, and If the
North wishes to break down its provisions, the as
sault must come from them. The position Of the
sections will thus be changed. They charged us
in 1861 with tramplng the Constitution under foot,
and with this as their battle cry, they rallied the
people to their support. Now weshelter ourselves
under the Constitution. If they are not content
with the Constitution now, they must take the ini
tiative-they must act Extensively or aggressively.
The responsibility Of the new contest is with them,
not with us. We claim nothing but what the Con-
stitution clearly gives us; We ask no concessions
from them; We stand on our undeniable, vested,
constitutional rights. Let US never abandon the
advantages of this position.

soUND AND SENSIBLE.

Hon. B.. G. Humphreys, Governor of Mississip-
pi, in his message to the Legislature, now con-
yened in extra session, after recounting the unfor-
tunate and distressed condition of the people,
concludes with the following sound views and SEN
sible conclusions ::
The people of Mississippi claim the possession
of certain rights too sacred to be entrusted any
Government and in their Constitution established
for the guidance of their servants have excepted
certain powers out of the general powers of Gov
ernment One of these powers is that the courts
shall always be open-another is that no law shall
be passed impairing the obligations of contracts.
The Judge that would close the doors of a consti-
tutional court in obedience to the order of the Ex
ecutive and Legislature, in violation Of the Con-
stitution, would be unworthy his ermine, and fit
tool of despotism. As the Executive claim no
authority 10 decide who is the worthy. and who is
the unworthy creditor-.and do not know how to
average and divide the losses oil have sustained.
1 feel no ordinary personal interest in the post
ponement Of the day of payment. My sympathies
have ever been enlisted in behalf of the helpless
and the needy. My hearts love is entwined around
the brave Confederate soldier by chords that can
not be severed and would divide with him the
last crumb that belonged to myself-but must con-
fess my want of wisdom to devise the scheme that
will absolve him or relieve his property from the
obligations of his contract wi Others, Diaout their
consent, 30 long there is virtue. power and ma
jesty in the Constitution under which he lives.
Any scheme however, that may be devised for
the permanent OF temporary relief Of the people
from the pressing embarrassments Of our great
disasters that is clearly within the restrictions of
my obligation to the Constitution, will receive my
cordial cooperation. oa
My faith is not in ''utay lawD." Temporary re-
lief from debt often tends only to additional en-
barrassments Patient industry, strict economy
and "long suffering" are now our destiny and our
duty, and the only means Of restoring our lost
fortunes and ro-establishing our prosperity and
happiness.

rHE pIERcErowN MEET1NG.

We notice that meeting of the citizens of the
upper portion of the Districtis is called for the I'd
November, at Pieroetown, to consider the resolu-
tions submitted to the meeting at Anderson, on
Monday of Court week. This isal1 proper enough,
provided the people will give expression to their
own views, and not merely re-echo the opinions of
o few managers In addition to the resolutions of
the Anderson meeting we respectfully and honestly
ask the Piercetown assemblage to vote directly
upon two questions. IfrstAAre you in favor of
the Legislature calling Convention to repudiate
debts {? Upon this question our members of the
Legislature should not beleft in the dark-1hey
should fully understand the views Of their consti-
tuents, so as to9tote intelligently for We believe
that nm effort will be made in the Legislature this
winter to call Convention Of the people and that,
if q Convention is called, the intent Of 1t Will be,
the ultimate reputation Of all debts When we
see men running through the country and tinblush-
ingls advocate republication, we are led to suspect
that this whole cry in favor Of staylaws and kim
dred measure is blind to lead the people by de-
rrees up to sanction reputation. The gentlemen
who spoke in the Anderson meeting disclaimed all
idea ofrepudiation and we credit their candor and
honesty ;, but we viii NOT vouch as much for some
who are pulling the wires in other sections Of the
State At all events, We should like for the peo-
nle to look Repudiation squarey in the face, and
say whether they endorse it or not. Creditors are
supposed to have some rights, and it is time that
il should be determined whether they have or not
Our interest might lead us to favor reputation,
but the old command, "Pay that thou Owest, is of
higher obligation.

adopting THAD. STEVENS proposed Amendment to
the Constitution of the United States, admitting
the negro to full political rights with the white
mon? This Amendment will probably be brought
before the Legislature this winter, and as ithas
been intimated that it will be ratified by that body
we should like to hear from the people on the sub
ject Will the Chairman Of the meeting do US the
