Mississippi Politics.


The Democracy of YazOo met In va
zoo City last slaturdsy, Major Allen M.
Hicks, of Dover, presiding, and adopted
the following resolutions:
Resolved, That We deem 1t unneces-
ssTy at this time to communicate any
declaration OF views on national and
general topics, further than to declare
our unfailiDg devotion to the cardinal
principles OF the National Democratic
party, and our abiding confidence that
IL will ere long restore the government
to its ancient Limitations of authority,
and relieve the south from the odious
dominion Of unprincipled adVen-
turers.
Resolved, That we are in favor Of a
vigorous and aggressive canvass ia the
contest now approaching in Mississippi,
and We appeal to our fellow citizens
throughout the State to unite with us in
our endeavors by legitimate means to
regain control Of our public affairs, and
thus secure to all classes, white and
black, the blessings of just and honest
government.
ReSOtUed, That we favor low taxes and
an immediate reduction Of all public ex-
penditures.
ReSOtCed, That honesty and capacity
are the only proper tests Of official fit
ness.
Resolved, That all men are equal be-
fore the law, and ale endowed by their
creator with certain inalienable rights,
among which is not the right to hold
office unless the aspirant possesses the
integrity and other qualifications neces-
saTy to Its execution.
ResolUed, When class of men have
demonstrated an incursbie inadequacy
to the exalted functions of the govern
ment, it is the right, it ia the duty of the
elective body to replace such unprofita-
BILE servants with men who can and will
discharge their duties with ability and
decency.
Resolved, That the carpetbagger and
his negro ally have approved themselves
signal friends aud failures in their ludi-
crOus and expensive attempts to govern
Mississippi for the last six years, and it
is time we were adopting the idea Of
Vice President Wilson and other emil
nent Republican statesmen, and giving
to intelligence and virtue the places
now desecrated by ignorance and de-
pravity.
RESOLVED, That twenty delegates be
by the chair, from each police
to represent this county in the
State convention to be held at Jackson,
on August 81.
Resolved, further, That having conf
dence in the ability, integrity and desire
of said delegates to achieve for their
State and party the greatest possible
good by their action, we leave it with
them to do all and singular things re-
quired at their hands as delegates I'M
by any instructions whatso-
ever, except as follows:
Resolved, That our delegates be re-
quested to favor any resolutions which
may look 10 speedy resumption OF spe-
Gle payments by the Federal government,
and which may oppose further initiation
OF paper currency.
Resolved, That such colored men as
desire to cooperate with US in this can
vafs shall be protected by US in the full
est sense Of the term.

their idolized representative retired.
WHEREAS, society in the State of
Mississippi is utterly PROSTATE in III its
vital energies, from the evils Of malad-
ministration, founded in corrup-
ton, dishonesty, cupidity and sup
ported by intolerable taxation; and
whereas, such NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Of the
governments tends to undermine and
destroy the liberties, the character and
the happiness Of the people; and where
as, the said administration has been
brought into power, through the agency
OF party made up by massing together
the whole negro, vote with few white
men, largely from other States, who,
backed by military force, have arrayed
the black race against the white, by in
shilling into their minds that the whites
were their enemies, therefore be it
Resolved, That we are opposed to the
formation Of parties among the people
Of this State founded on a difference Of
race or color, and we cordially invoke
this union of good citizens of every race
and color in patriotic efforts to defeat at
the next election the present State ad-
ministration and its supporters, and to
secure for all the blessings Of honest and
capable government.
