THE REPUBLICAN,.
BY CLARA SIDNEY.

B .TFshs -~--~--
I tho1ght be bad the kindest heart
That ever beat 10 man
I thought my troubles all were DER
When first his love began.
One only fear and care had ],
One trouble at my heart
And yet I waited hopefully
To see cen that depart.
For believed his honest soul
The noblest choice would make,
And well fulfill his word to me
TO love and not forsake.
But they that on the love OF man,
Or on his promise trust,
Must learn, through weary hours Of pain
That they have leaned on dust.
And he whose earnest call my heart
So thankfully obeyed,
Hath cheated all my hopes Of him
Hath all my trust betrayed.

rIatfsrrn Of Principles.
ADOPTED JULY lat, 1869.


The Republicans Of Mississippi, in Con
vsntion assembled, in spirit Of amity and
peace towards their opponents, and OF JUS
tice to themselves, make the following dec
lation Of principles and policy:
Unfaltsring devotion to the Union first
Last, and forever sfAhs
Faith in and fidelity to the principles. OBJ
jscts and aims of the great National Rcpub'
iican Party, with which and with the Presi
dent and Congress we are in full accord ant
sympathy. se
A fair, impartial, Just and economical nd
ministration Of the government, Nationa
and State.
Full and unrestricted right Of speech to
al men, 81 all times and all places with the
mcstcomplete and unrestrained freedom OF
the ballot, including protection to citizens
tho exercise of the suffrage.
Asystem Of free schools which shall place
the means Of liberal education within the
reach Of every child in the State. i
Reformation Of. the iniquitous and une-
quail taxation and assessments, which, dis
eliminating against labor and laborers, have
borne so unjustly and unequally upon the
people.
That all men without regard to race, color
orprsvious condition, are equal before the
law, and to be freeman is to possess all
tho civil and political rights Of citizen, are
not only enduring truths, but the settled
and permanent doctrines Of the Republican
party. ~
This Convention recognizes but two great
national partics--that under the administra-
ton Of the ono, the material and industrial
resources Of the country viii languish, whilst
under the liberal and fostering care of the
national Republican party, commerce, man
ufactures and internal improvements by the
general government win surely make the
people OF Mississppi what nature, soil and
climate intend they should be--rich, pros
porous and contented. M
Recognizing as peculiarly American and
Republican the sentiment, that the true ba-
sis of government is the consent Of the
governed, which in a republic is expressed
through the ballot box, we, in the language

Once upon time, down in ole Vir-
ginny, there fourished a veteran Eth
opian, who was known far and wide by
the high-sounding cognomen Of "Uncle
Cesar Pomp." Now, Uncle Cesar Pomp
was preacher, something of a sensation
preacher, and popular accordingly. On
one occasion he undertook to give his
hearers an account of the creation of
man; and singular tumble of Genesis
and the Indian legeads he made of it /:

first make man, be make him out OBJ dc
dust of de esrf-dat is, out OBJ de mud in

OBJ de fence to dry him in de SUM-" Here
an eager little picksnniny in the audience
jumped up and interrupted with the
trenchent query, " Halo, Uncle Cesar
Pomp, whar de wood cum from dat fence

torian to record that he vss apt to make
use of expressions hardly consistent with
his duty as preacher of the word On

his keen old eye on the delinquent, and
emphasizing every word with shake Of
his long, bapy finger, he roared out {:

EDITORS LEDGER: This mornings Aua-
lanche gives US what purports to be an
explanation of the contract of the Mem
phis and Charleston railroad with the
Stokes party of Memphis, in regard to the
importation Of negroes from Collierville
and Fayette county. The defense; to-
wit: That the railroad company is COM
mon carrier, and could not refuse trans-
portation to any one who applied for it,
is too weak to stand criticism for
a moment; and it is only surprising that
q gentleman of the business reputation
Of Captain Ross should not be aware that
be is not compelled TO force his road into
q contract, the purpose of which is so
trsnspsrently unlawful, and which must
have been known to him at the time. The
writer is personally friendly with Cap
tain Ross, and in nowise intends to do
him injustice, but simply to show him q
mode Of escape, il he is really disposed
to avoid bringing these FIVE car loads OF
