lower jaw, knocking out its teeth, and
inficting wound on its head which

RALEIGH, n. C., August 2S.-Thc negro

question. There we're many white spec.

Just as soon as it met. James II. Young
called it to order and said the delegates
were here for business. II was not here
to disrupt the republican party, but was
here as the republican party of North
Carolina. Its purpose was to make il
known to all, from President Harrison
to the lowest undcrling. that these pco-
pie are assembled here to demand their
rights and privileges. The colnred race"
he said, shall bc recognized in the dis
tribution of patronage. This body is not

ITS NEW CONSTITUTION.
The Misslssippi Convention StilI
at Work.

JACKSON, Miss, August 2s,-In the
constitutional convention yesterday the
Franchise committee made some little
progress.
The apportionmcnt branch of the suf-
frage question may be regarded as settled.
1t secures white maioritics in both houses
of the legislature and is reported as being
satisfactory to the delegates from the
black counties.
The question has arisen as to whether
the constitution now being framed is to
Ike submitted to the people for ratiiica-
tion. 1t is highly improbable that this
will be done. the members of the convcn-
ton being impressed with the belief that
the votes of those who are now qualified
electors and who are legislated against
in the proposed constitution would Ger
tainly defeat the atiiivation Of tia, in
struinent il submitted to the people. The
best legal minds in convention are unani-
mously of the opinion that no ratilica-
tion is necessary.
