A Meeting of CONSERVATIVES in
ChOctaW County.

In pursuance of previous notice, a respect
able number of the Conservative party of
Choctaw county, Mississippi, met at the
Courthouse of said county. in Greensboro,
on Monday, the 18th day of July. 1869. when,
on motion of Capt. 10. b. Dunn, Hon. Th0s.
N. Davis was appointed President of the
meeting; and. on his further motion, willis
Barfeld, ESD, and Capt. r.. Witt, were APP
pointed Secretaries.
The meeting being thus organized, on
motion, committee of five were appointed
on Resolutions. The President appointed
General w. +. Rrantly, v. /. Drane, Esq,
10. b. Dunn, j. 5. Holloway, Esq, and
Jacob Adcock. Esq, said committee.
The committee having retired TO consider
on the resolutions, Kew. Thos Castles, A.. III.
Brantley, Esq, and Hon. Z. N. Reed, each
addressed the meeting. congratulating the
people that the long night of oppression and
misrule, through which We have been pass
ing, is now about over.
The committee on Resolutions, through
their chairman w. F. Brantley, reported the
following resolutions, which were unani-
mOusly adopted. to-wit:
Resolved, That we are willing and hereby
pledge ourselves to act with the Conserva-
tive men of the country in the coming can
yass, and we recommend a Convention of
the Conservative men of all colors, regard
less Of former politics, to determine upon
general plan for the canvass.
Resolved, That We congratulate ourselves
upon our success last year in defeating the
constitution, inasmuch as it has resulted in
all parties agreeing to discard the most OBJ
iectiOnable features of the Constitution, and
presenting it to us in shape that is tolera-
Bile.
Resolved, That it is with us now. as last
year: not so much shall the black man be en-
franchised, as it is, shall the white man be
DISTINGUISHED; and we are grateful to the
blackman for his magnanimity in conceding
that we were as much entitled to this privi-
lege as he, while subjected to the in.
fluence of the Radicals.
Resolved, That it is with US now, as last
year: we have no 40 acres os land and mule
to offer the blackman to do his duty. and no
falsehood or deception to use to him, but we
promise to tell him the truth at all times
unlike our Radical friends who told them
last year that il they voted against the con-
stitution they would be put back in slavery,
and not allowed to vote.
Resolved. That we hail with grateful
hearts the dawn of the doctrine of univer-
sal suffrage and universal amnesty, as omi-
nous of a better day ahead.
Resolved. That we feel grateful to Al
mighty God for the prospect of victory in
favor of the conservatives in Virginia.
Resolved, That. unlike our Radical friends,
we believe the black man, if entitled to suf-
frage at all, is entitled to it North as well as
South, and in the one place as well as the
other.
Resolved, That copy of these resolutions
be forwarded to the Winona Democrat, and
Clarion, at Jackson, for publication.
On motion the meeting adjourned until
the End Monday in August next.

done in New Orleans. and as every man in
tered in Agricultural, Mechanical and Man
ufacturing progress must admit, draws all
attention from stock, &c.
Northern and Eastern Associations have
long since seen and admitted the curse to
the requirement. of knowledge; many have
discardedit, and hundreds and thousands of
the working men in the North and East have
ceased to patronize.
Those who want the horse-race let them
have it, but please do not mix mp the race
course and gambling with the effort to build
up our waste places. No objection to the
young having enjoyment, but pray let us
exhibit the useful, and have nothing to draw
off attention. II Mississippi can have a
Fair as in 81 to go. any man of observation
can be engaged for days in examining and
studying it. The New Orleans Fair Asso-
citation has made an investment, and it is
necessary 1t should pay 10 or 10 per cent on
capital; and any observer can see the slim
attendance and the apathy until s'time for

PROF. THos. 8. GATHRIGHr-We had the
pleasure of a call from this excellent gentle
man yesterday, who is on brief visit to our
city. Prof. Cartwright, as most of our read
ers know, is the Principal of q most excel
lent Institute of learning, located at Sum-
merville, Noxubee County, Miss. We were
glad to find him in the best of health, and
his usual fine spirits, after closing labori-
Gus session of his school. The industry of
Prof Gathright, with all his remarkable at
tention to his school, enables him TO find
timeto perform duties of the presiding off,
cerof the Grand Lodge of Masons in this
State. He IL now for the second term In
that Office to the satisfaction and great adj
vantage Of that fraternity. We hope that
he may long live to impart as he has In the
past, knowledge to the young men of the
country and to see and enjoy the fruits of
his labor.-Meridiau Gazette.

very backward, but looks well. If we have

cotton there may yet be pretty fair yield
but nothing like full crop at best.
Crystal Springs Herald says, the heavy
rains are damaging to some extent the cot

although rather too much rain for corn.
The Oxford Falcon says, for several weeks
the crops of corn in many portions of La

but recent rains have greatly improved
their condition, and we now have the graft

be abundant.
Cotton is growing rapidly but is much
smaller at this date than it was last year.
we cannot at this time make any reliable
ejaculation as to the probable yield per acre.

PIC MIC AND SPEAKING ArwALLAcE's BRIDGE

PIC MIC AND STEALING AT WALLACE BRIDGE.
On Friday, the 18th inst- it was your cor
respondents good fortune to be present at a
Pic mic, at Walace's Bridge, on Zilpher
Creek, in the northern part of this County.
There was gOodly assemblage of the youth
and beauty, the bone and sinue of our coun-
ty. The neighboring counties OF Choctaw.
Carroll and Holmes,, were represented. Very
many beautiful women graced the occasion.
Col. Hoy and Maj. Butt being present.
were called upon for addresses. Col. Hoy
led off, advising the people to vote for the
ratification of the expurgated Constitution,
AID that if the Conservative Republican par
ty nominated candidates for State offices
and Congress, whom the Conservatives
could support. that we should give them
our cooperation. Maj. Butt spoke some-
what to the same effect. Both speeches
were able and impressive, and did much to-
wards settling the minds of those present
to he proper policy to be pursued in the
coming political campaign. So far as we
could observe, there was not a dissenting
voice to the position assumed by them. Our
people are anxious for the restoration of the
State to the Union upon just and liberal
terms, and are ready to unite in supporting
men and measures having that end in view.
After the speaking was over, bountiful
repast was spread, to which all present did
ample justice. The day was pleasantly, and,
we think profitably spent, and will not be
forgotten by those who participated in the
Pic mic.
