Jackson.

VERNON, July 6-Under the call of the
chairman OF the executive committee Of the
Democratic and Conservative party Of the
parish OF jackson, the people assembled at
the courthouse on the sixth Of July, every
ward in the parish being represented.
After the meeting had been called to order
by the chairman of the executive committee,
Judge N. NJ. Smith, the meeting was pern1a-
nently organized by electing John Hampton,
Esq, chairman, and s. N. Mayes, secretary.
On motion OF W. FL. Allen. a committee of
five was appointed by the chair on resolutions,
who, after retiring, presented the following
preamble and resolutions:
Whereas, the Democratic-Co Conservative
party OF Louisiana have finally obtained the
control of every department OF the State gov
ernment-a control which, under proper man.
agement, must continue to exist; and
Whereas, we have ever looked forward to
this happy contamination as the time when
the organic law of the State would be 50
modelled as to lay a permanent basis for that
economic reform so much demanded by the
altered condition Of the people, thereby secur-
ing our long looked for redemption from the
misrule Of our despOilt rs;
Whereas, the, proposed amendments to the
constitution adopted by the General Assem-
oly, 6y The permission Of the Radical party,
Will by no means present US satisfactory or
gantc law; and
Whereas, the alleged shortcomings OF the
last Legislature have produced so much in
ulHerence among the people as to State affairs
that 1t is apparent unless the great question
OF constitutional convention is presented to
them they will not rally to the polls with
tnelr accustomed energy and enthusiasm;
therefore, be it
ResotUed By the Democratic Conservative
party OF the parish of jackson in convention
assembled, that we hold the early establish
ment OF O constitution for Louisiana By
LoutslontGns to be matter of vital and para
mount Importance in the political affairs of
this State, and we respectfully urge upon the
Baton Rouge Convention the urgent necessity
OF proclatming this idea as a part OF the pol
icy OF the DemOcratic-C Conservative party at
the next election.
ResoLred, That our delegates to the Baton
Rouge Convention are unequivOeally instruct
ed to vote IN accord with the spirit OF the fore
going resolution.
RESOLVED further, That the holding Of a con-
stitutional convention by no means necessi-

The Pure in Heart.

Who are the pure in heart2 Not those
whose outward lives wear the semblancc
of extreme sanctity-not those whose
voices are loudest in the songs of praise,
and whose good deeds are blazoned forth
to the world. The truly pure in heart are
sensitive, shy, unobtrusive men and wom-
en-, who traverse their appointed way as
modestly as some hidden rivulet flow
through quiet vale. There is no frets
ting or foaming, or dashing impetuously
onward. Their course is marked only by
the fertility and beauty which attend it.
The poet, if he be truly gifted with
"the vision and faculty divine" should,
above all men, belong to that privileged
order of beings, who, in their exalted
moments, stand face to face with Divin-
ity itself. His studies, his solitary mus.
ings, his close observations of the chang
lug aspects Of earth and sky, all tend 10
elevate his thoughts and purify his heart.
When, after long and intimate commun-
ion with the spirit of Nature, he enters
her solemn temples, the veil that hid the
mysteries of the universe is drawn aside,
and he feels himself in the presence of the
Infinite. Then, in every beautiful thing
around him, he behods the Creator Of
that beauty. Then, in winds and waves,
and whispering leaves, he hears melody,
which is, to his exalted sense, the voice
of God.
But those wholly their innocent purity
of heart, most traly realize the meaning of
the phrase, are little children. Watch a
little child in some of those light troubles
which pass, like summer cloud, over
the pure mirror of its thoughts. Is it
not evident some seraph hand dries the
tears ere they have time to leave one
stain on the rosy cheekl Watch that
child in its moments of happiness, mark
its radiant eye, listen to its accents of joy,
and you will be sure that some spirit
voice is whispering ecstatic promises to
its soul. Talk to little child of heaven,
and straightway heaven is mirrored in its
face. Watch an active, healthy boy in
his outdoor pastimes; he is always dnr-
ing, always reckless, always in peril Of
life or limit, yet always upheld and saved
by some angel hand.
