herself with imperishabIe glory by reject
ing most decisively the infamous go

slavement therefore,
Resolged, That we, the Democracy OF
Memphis, send to our friends, the white
people of Mississippi, our most earnest
and sincere congratulations upon this
glorious and unexpected victory, which
we regard as an omen Of success in the
Resolved, That to Mississippi belongs
the high honor of the distinguished
achievement of striking Radiealism q
blow such as it has not before received,
and under which it reels and staggers,
and its recovery is doubtful, or it must
be plunged into such deeds of desperation
as will enforce its speedy dissolution.
Resolved, That our friends in Missis-
sippi are entitled to cur most profound
gratitude for the noble stand they have
taken in defense OF civil liberty and con-
stitutional government, and their resist

carpet-baggers and sealawags, with all
the machinery Of loyal leagues and con-
tiguous bayonets, fraud, perjury and in
timidstiOn, may be defeated in their
vile schemes Of future sggrandizement.
