Georgia in thus outraging the
great inherent right of the negro
was sufficient justification for q
Radical Congress, to outrage the
rights Of every State in the Union
by ruthlessly stripping one Of the
sisterhoOd Of her clearly defined
rights under the Constitution and
thus establishing q precedent
which may eventuate in the entire
overthrow of the whole form Of
government. Mississippi has
avoided this rock upon which
Georgia has been wrecked. Here
the negro is adOred; he is almost
worshipped he is conciliated and
fawned upon every where; he is
the beloved Of all the loved. Here
the negroes can have oil the offices
desired.
0ne-third of the State Legisla-
ture Is composed Of the favor
class. The Secretary OF the State
is q gentleman Of color. General
Ames, a good loyal politician,
has taken care in his appoint
ments, that this highly beloved
and adOred portion of the. body
polite, should not be overlooked.
The President Of the State Senate
and the Chairman Of the House of
Representatives have carefully
guared tAeir interests and their
sensibilities in giving them at least
afull share of representatives up
on the various committees. And
last, though not least, the Hon. II.

sippi upon this vexed subject, has
shamed her sister State of Geor-
gia, and disarmed in q most mas
terly manner the hatred and op-
position Of the intense negro
loving element Of the Radical
party in Congress. Upon this
point alone Mississippi is entitled
to high consideration at the hands
Of the Radical Congress. She has
not swallowed the negro and the
prevailing Radical sea in a mine
ing and nauseated manner but she
has gulped him down in the most
approved style Of perfect and
complete satisfaction. Not a
froWn has disturbed her fair face,
but all is placidity. The negro
lovers must of necessity be in &C.
stacy over the manner in which
this subject has been met and
handled here. No room for carp.
ing or growing upon that score.
All is favorable and agreeable.
Even Sumner in his blatant and
persistant advocacy of negro
rights and negro protection must
be surfeited with regard to the
consideration shown the animal

Upon the other hand, Virginia
