RESOLUTIONS.

Hon. Il. Barksdale offered the
following resolutions which were
unanimously adopted by the Press
association, which met here last
Wednesday. They need no com
ment, but speak for themselves. 1t
is unnecessary to say that they are
warmly endorsed and appreciated
by the people of the seashore re-
gion, and we hope will meet "a re-
spouse from the entire people of
the State:
ReSOlred, That in performing the
duty imposed upon the United
States by the constitution thereof,
to promote the public welfare, III
the exercise of the power thus del
egated the interests of every State
and section equally demand its foS-
tering care without discrimination,
and among the objects of general
interest in which Mississippi is
specially concerned is the improve
ment of the harbors of her sea-
board. That this association here
by directs especial attention to the
port of Pascagoula, and would re.
commend such additional appro-
priations for removing the obstruc-
tionS to navigation at the mouth of
the river aud the sound thereto add
jacent, i'll such sums as may be as
certained to be Necessary after IA
careful survey under the direction
of the government.
ReSOlred, That to secure the CON-
meTcial and agricultural independ-
ence of Mississippi, the press of
the State hereby proclaims that she
should have an outlet TO the sea
for her own products and those of
States whose convenience and wei
fare would be thereby promoted;
and to this end the members of
association Individually and
collectively will use their most dill
gent efforts for the construction of
4 railroad from the seaboard
through the interior OF the State,
thus connecting it with the general
of railroads now in opera
ton ; and that said railroad enter

COLUMBUS, O., June 1.-THE
democratic State convention organ
lied here to-day by the election Of
Samuel f. Hurd, of Cincinnati,
permanent chairman. The follow.
ing ticket was nominated For gov
ernent, Thomas Ewing, of Fairfield
for lieutenant government. A. V.
Rice, of Putnam; for treasurer,
Anthony HowellS, of Stark. for
Judge of the supreme court, w. J.
Gilmore, of Preble for attorney
general, S. Pillars, of Allen.
The platform adopted demands
u fair election, without interference
by the military power; says that
the lawsenacted by congress, which
under pretense of regulating con
gressional elections, interfere with
the election of State officers and
overthrow the laws of the States
governing the choice of such OF its
officers, are unconstitutional and
ought to be repealed. 1t demands
a charge in Federal jury laws so
that iuries cannot be picked and
controlled by the government tor
despotic and partisan purposes as
heretofore; charges that the action
of the president and the republi-
can minority in congress, in refus-
ing to allow supplies to be voted
unless the majority would consent
to $ troops at the pools, and the
maintenance of unconstitutional
and unjust election laws, has shown
a spirit of faction and devotion to
party success instead of the wei
fare of the country, and deserves
the condemnation of the whole
American people.
1t asserts that President Hayes,
by interposing vetoeS to defeat
constitutional and well considered
legislation has..disregarded the in
tentions of the farmers of the on
stition and the Whistles and welfare
of the people; that it is the sense
of the democracy of Ohio that not
a dollar should be appropriated by
congress to pay soldiers, marshals
or supervisors to interfere with cleo.
tions.
The financial plank of the plat
form reaffirmes the principles here
tOfore advocated by the party in
Ohio favors the abolition of the
present national bank notes, and
declares that the decentralization of
was a monstrous fraud on
the people, and that it should be
restored TO its place on an equality
with gold. An additional resoln-
tion requesting the democratic
members of congress not to vote
for the army appropriation bill un-
til provision he made to keep the
army from influencing or intimida-
ting the people at the polls was
by Frank Hurd, in be
lalf of the committee on resolutions
Iut was defeated by a heavy vote.

MISSISSIPPI PRESS.

The fourteenth annual session o
the Mississippi State Press associa
ton, which convened in our town
on Wednesday last was an occasion
which will long be remembered
with pleasure by our citizens, all OF
whom entered heartily into the
spirit OF the meeting, and did all
in their power to make the stay of
u brother editors as pleasant and
enjoyable as possible. The attend
ance this year was the largest that
ever assembled upon any similar
occasion, and, judging from the
acquaintances formed, and the
short time we have been permitted
to enjoy their company, the Press
association of this State is repre-
scented by as intelligent, sober and
moral class of gentlemen as com
pose any organization in the United
States. We say this because we
know it has been the habit of most
people to charge editors and
gentlemen of the newspaper pro
tession generally with being in
temperate and immoral, and we
know a great deal has been said
upon this subject by newspapers
which would lead the public to
form this conclusion.
Among our brethren this week
we have been pleased TO converse
with a large number who are mem
bers of different churches, and also
men who are strong temperance
advocates. OF course, like all
other bodies, there are gentlemen
IN the association who occasionally
Imbibe, but even these gentlemen,
IlhC an StilSlDlC uIChs hibN NOW W
control themselves, and seldom go
beyond the bounds of plopriety in
heir bibulous inclinatiouS.
WE are truly gratitied that the
association met in u town this
year. 1t has not only given rs the
opportunity of shaking the hands
Of our brethren and Of forming a
personal acquaintance with many
whom we have never met before,
but the event has given our peJple
the opportunity of Becoming &C
quainted with the editorsthoughout
the State, and seeing for themselves
the class of men who CONTROL the
Mississippi press.
The hospitality extended by our
citizens was generous and abundant,
and we know from the expression
of the brethren themselves that
they were completely satisfied, but
of this we will allow them to speak
through their own organs.

TRU TH.

Thanked again-we mean the quaran-
tine. Eight thousand pine apples arrived
Thursday morning by rail, having been
run in to Pascagoula and shipped flom
there to New Orleans.
The above, together with a good
deal more twaddle about the quar-
antine being fanked, appeared in
the editorial columns of the New
Orleans Times last Friday. There
is not a word of truth in the state
ment as regards pine apples being
run in at Pascagoula and shipped
to New Orleans, as nothing of the
kind has occurred. In its haste to
censure the New Orleans board OF
health, and to thrust our board a
dig lii the ribs, the Times has com
pletely ianked the truth and i'm.
AGNES the board of health has
been 1anked.
The facts in regard to these
pineapples are these A Pasca-
gonla schooner recently took a load
of lumbertO Key West and brought
back from a plantation above Key
West a load of pineapples and
landed them at Mobile, and we
presume they were shipped to New
Orleans-a part of them at least.
But Key West is not under the
bane of quarantine, nor is there
any yellow fever at that place, con-
seqnently if the schooner had en-
tered this port, and if the pineap,
plies had been shipped from this
port to New Orleans, no harm
would have resulted from such
shipment, nor would the quaran.
tine laws have been violated. We
admire enterprise in a Journal, but
such enterprise at the sacrifice of
does not look well in a great
daily such as the New Orleans

WE are glad to know that there is not a
greenbacker or independent in Noxubee

What other county can say this! Our

earnestly advised by the committee.
ReSolCod, That in the opinion Of this
committee the. harmony and success of
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS party would

dates for district attorney in the various

dicial districts, these committees to be
composed of ono member for each county,,
