GOVERNOR AMEs ON THE MISSISSIPPI SIT
UATIOS.
WASHINGTON, September 20.-The fol-
lowing telegram from Gov. Ames to the
Attorney General relating TO affairs in
Mississippi was to-day made public:
JACKSON, Miss, September II.
.iaoney General PiGTepont, Washington;
The necessity which called forth my
dispatch Of the Sth inst. to the President
still exists. Your question OF yesterday,
repeated to-day, asks for information
which gladly give. The violence is in
cident to the political contest preceding
the pending election. Unfortunately the
question OF race has assumed magnifed
Importance at this time in certain local
tiles. In fact the race feeling is so in.
tense that the protection OF Colored
people by white organizations is
lespaired of. The political contest
made on the white line iOrbids
it. OF the history Of the COlored people
since the reconstruction and its bearing
on the situation ut this time, Il detail
ed statement cannot be made in
telegram. This State has been opposed
to organizing militia Of colored men. 1t
has been believed by them that it would
develop war n the races, which would
extend beyond the borders OF this State.
An organization Of the whites alone,
where the issue is one OF race, would be
equally Intellectual. The most complete

tons will be numerous; so they were last
December, but the report OF the Congress
siOnal Committee proved the correctness
Of my assertions. am aware Of the re.
luCtance OF the people Of tho country to
national interference in State affairs;
though II there be no violation Of
law there can be no interference. Permit
me to express the hope that the odium
of such an interference shall not attach
to President Grant, or the Republican
party. As Governor OF the State, have
made Il demand which cannot we'll be
refused. Olium in all its magnitude may
descend on me, yet cannot escape the con-
sCientiOus discharge Of my duty toward
the class of American citizens whose on

NOW ,ET THE SECEsSsGNISTS
SHOW THEIR HANDS.

Senator Morton of Indiana introduced
into the Ssnatc on "Wednesday the fol-
lowing resolutions:
EeSfir,i BY the Senate. the House of
Representatives concnrriug. that the
people of the United States constitute Il
nation ard are one people in the sense
Of national unity.
EeS5{csI That the Government of the
United States is no. a compact between
States in their municipal and corporate
characters. but was formed by tho pso-
pie OF the United States IN thsir primary
capacity; that lne rights of States are
defined and guaranteed by the Consti.u-
ton and not by any outside theory Of
State sovereignty. and that the rights of
the States cannot be enlarged or dimin-
ished except by amendment to the Con-
stitutioD.
Res0.reI, That the rights OF the States
have the same sanction aud security in
the Constitution as the rights and power
OF the National Government. and that
local domestic government by a State
within the limits Of the Constitution is
an essential of our free Republican sys-
tenn.
Rssolreoi. That the doctrine that
State has right to secede from the
Union is inconsistent with the idea OF
nationality. Is in conflict with the spirit
and structure of the Constitution, and
should be regarded as having been for
ever extiuguished by the suppression of
the rebellion.
Morton asked to have the resolutions
printed and laid on the table and II was
so ordered.
This will open the ball; and the ball
once opened xill not be closed until
these resolutions are debated at length
and every man who IS a tnionist Ill
earnest, and all who excuse secession or
cherish Calhouni.m must show their
hands. There is politics IN these reso-
OF the straisht-ahssd
sort and in the consideration of which !
there is about as much room for the |
sex,ess pla,itudes of Dolly Eardenism as
there is ior the holding of Peace Con |
vention in the open space between the !
lines of two hos. lie armies. Let these !
resolves be Il roughly discussed. The |
WI Ne the better for the debate. |

and devotioLs as ever was known. They
married while vet young. and their true
love never grew old The life thus led

struggles which not unfit the reSoiute.

Golden Gate. The lest have lived to
bless and honor their parents. The old
est has just past his twenty-tirst birth
day. The youngest will be five with the
early days of the New Year. This de-
voted wife and mother was stricken some
four or five years ago with that dreadful

band, cur friend, and the sorrow stricken /
children? Nothing indeed; for there S
a grief in whose presence words SIZE bes:
unsaid, as there is a sympathy viii IA

best friend gore from this world forever,
what other friend may assuaSe the grief
which nothing but her rstuIn might

The tsA- Of friendship pOurs its heavenly
