ITS SOVEREIGN POWERS.
REPORT IN THE
MI0sIssIPPI CONVENTION.
a state Readmitted INTO the
Union Becomes Reinvestcd with
All the Rights Possessed by Any
and all other 0tates.

JACKSON, Miss, August 23.-The judi.
ciary committee OF the constitutional
convention submitted its report yester.
day. 1t was writted by ex-Chief Justice
Simrall, veteran republican. After an
alyzing all the propositions of the United
States constitution bearing upon mat
ters of suffrage, the committee reached
the conclusion:
Whatever may have been the effect OF
the action of the Southern States, de-
nominated either secession or rebellion.
and of the reconstruction acts viewed
as judicial or political questions,
and without enumerating the diverse
opidions on these important ques-
tions. we are of opinion that the read
mission of this State into the Union fully
and forever settled the status of the
States thus re-admitted, and that Con-
gress thereby lost all control or jursdic-
tion over this matter and the States
thus re-admitted into the Union became
at once ipso facto under the constitu-
tion rc-invested with all the sovereign
powers possessed by any and all the
other States"
No action was taken on the report,
and after disposing Of routine business
the convention adjourned till Monday.

FOR LITTLE PEOPLE.
ALWAYS FORGETTING.

Have you ever, pray. met with this style OF
boy?
You may find him in country or city;
Has he been your companion in play or EN-
ploy?
You are truly person to pity.
He forgets every toy and forgets every tool.
Through constant and careless misplace
ing;
FOrgets half his books till he's fairly At
school,
And his questioning teacher is facing.
He completely forgets when on errands he
runs,
Or, II all is not wholly neglected,
For the bread he was sent for brings back
with him buns,
Andeard for the butter expected.
He forgets-but can not begin to relate
The things he is ever forgetting,
The few he remembers 'twere easy to state
Yet he's always resolving, regrctting.
He meant nothing wrong flor at heart he Is
kind,
Hut, alas! 1t was loaded-that rife;
Tho salt and saltpetre got mixed in his
mind;
ALI, forgetting 10 often no trifie!
So urge should you know some forgetful
young lad,
Tell him, sure as the sunrise morrow,
Unless he soon conquers this habit most
bad,
1t will cause him yet bitterest sorrow.

TEMPERANCE NOTES.
SPEAK TO HIM KINDLY.


Poisoned by alcohol, blear eyed and lily clad,
Cursing his fate as he shufhes along.
Crushed and bereft Of the once earnest will he
had,
Penniless homeless and jeered by the throng;
Friends have assisted him, pastors have prayed
with him
He has been rescued and lost DER ana DER;
But do not give him up-pull from his lips the
cup
Speak to him kindly and try him once more.
Though It's disheartening never to thrive with
him,
Sad his relapses from virtue to shame;
Give him not hopelessly up-if you strive with
him
Some spark Of good may be famed to q flame,
Some potent memory-haply mothers voice,
Teaching him virtue and wisdom Of yore,
May be recalled to his ear by another's voice;
Speak to him kindly and try him once more.
Christ in His charity taught those who came to
Him,
I'll deeds should be pardoned seventy times
seven
Succor the least here and you do the same to
Him,
These are His precepts in earth and in Heav
en-.
Oh then, when laboring hard for humanity
Never believe that you labor in vain;
Kindness will conquer the drunkards insanity,
Speak to him gently and try him again.

In summary, as to the effects of alcohol
on the health and life of the human
species, on which fortunately those Of
fects have alone been tried on large
scale, it must be stated on physical
grounds, apart altogether from moral
considerations, that the effects of alco-

that until IL has produced an artificial

any one can construe into useful action.
