S4rat months ago, as Deacoi Ingalls, of

western pari of New York he fell in with an
Irishman who had come before him;and settled

Church, and invited his newly made friend to
accompany him thither, his destination being
a.smnll meeting house near by. There was a
great revival there at that time, and one of
the dbaoons, who was a. very small man in
etatne, invited, brother ingalls to a seat in his
pew. He accepted 1 the ihwitntion, followed by
Tat, who looked in vain for the altar, Ac.
After he was seated he turned around to bro
tW Ingalls and in a whisper that could be
heard all around, lie inquired:
"Sum, an.' isn't this a.hcratic church?"
"ITusV' said'IngaUat.'df ftm speak a word
they will put yod out."
"Divil a word will I speak at all," repliod

Th« mooting was opened, witk pray at by tho
pastor. *
Pat was eyeing' Him very closely, when an
eld gentleman, who was standing in the pew
directly ih front of Pat, shouted "Amen!"
"llist, ye divil, shouted Pat, in a loud whis
per, mhioh. was heard by the minister, "be da
eent, and dont make a blockhead of yourself."
The parson grew more fervant in his devo
tion. Presently the deacon uttered in an au
dible groan—"Anrten!"
"Hist, ye blackguard! Have ye no* decency
at all?" said rtd>,.at the same time giving him
a punch in the ribs, which caused him to loose
ki» equilibrium.
The minister stopped, and extending his
bonds in a suplicating manner, said;
'"Brethren, we cannot be disturbed in this
way. Will some one put that man out?"
"YU, your riverence, I will do it," shouted
F.#t.
And; wiiting the action to the word, he col
lared the deacon, to the utter horror of the
pastor, brother Ingalls, and the whole congre
gation, he dragged him up the- aisle, and with
a tremendous kick sen>t him into tho vestibule
of the chturah.
The lakceper's Bear,
A perm* nine kept an inn by the roadside

he would paint a bear for » sign-beard. It

One night there arose a violent storm o

Theion keeper bad nothing to say agaimt
to otmcluiive an argnment, nnd finally agreed
to give the painter fifteen dollar# to paint him
a wild bear with a chain that would not take

It is only necessary for us to add that (he
first bear woe painted in water color#, which
■the violent rain washed away, while tbe second
woe painted in oil colors.

Grant's friends say tho most that can be
charged against their favorite is that, "he lias a

trtacherous part, and his memory partakes of
the same quality. We remember having seen
in our scriptural researches that one Ananias

misfortune.

V HKRKA8, The people uf the ten
seceding Slates, through their Consti-,
tutional Conventions, have declared
their Ordinances of secession to be
null and void;
And Wheiikas, The Constitutional
Conventions of said States reorganized
the abolition of slavery as previously
declared by the federal government—
conceded to freedmen the protection
af life, liberty and property, common
to all citizens, nod conformed their
organic law in all respects to the
Constitution of the United States;
And Whkkeas, Said States have
elected liepreseutatives and chosen
Senators in (Congress, in accordance
with the laws of the United States,
who have presented their lawful
credentials to Congress only to be
denied their constitutional riglus of
representation in that body;
And, Whkueas, The Republican
majority now controlling the Legisla
tive power of Congress, have estab
lished a Military Despotism
States of the Union, in violation of
the federal Constitution, in dofiance
of the executive and judicial depart
ments of thegoverument, threatening
• he executive with impeachment, and
the Supreme Court with an abroga
tion of its Constitutional powers, and
showing a bold and persistent design
to maintain their pnrtizan power, by
the entire overthrow of constitutional
liberty;
And \V hebeas, The popular strug
gle upon these great questions has
resulted in a union of all conservative
men, without regard to former party
ties, and in the establishment of a
powerful and successful opposition
this hateful despotism under the lead
of tlae National Democratic party
whose principles and policy on these
questions are in strict accordance with
the political views of this Convention.
Therefore,
Resolved, That we hereby adopt the
name of and the principles which the
said Democratic^ party are now con
tending, and that we will do battle
under that banner until the Union is
restored to a Constitutional basis, and
all the States are recognized as equals
in the great confederation of American
sovereignties.
Resolved, That the Military bills
of Congress for the reconstruction of
the Bo-ealled rebel States, are uncon
stitutional and oppressive in all their
particulars, and shonld be resisted by
the unanimous vote of the people at
the ballot box. t
Resolved, That for the purpose of
accomplishing this result, the people
of Mississippi are hereby recommend
ed to organize a Central Democratic
Association, with similar Associations
in every county, and in all the prin
cipal cities and towns in the State, and
to this end, this Convention will ap
point a Central Committee of nine,
resident at the Capital of the State,
With power to complete this party or
ganization, in all respects.
Resolved, That the nefarious design
of the Republican party ih Congress
to place the white men of tho South -
era States under the governmental
eontrol of their l»te slaves, and to
degrade the Caucassion race as the
inferiors of the African negro; is a
crime against tho civilization of the
age, which needs only to be mentioned
to be scorned by all intelligent mipds,
and we therefore call upon the people
of Mississippi to vindicate alike the
superiority of their race over the ne
gro, and their political power to
maintain constitutional liberty
Resolved, That the proceedings of
this meeting bo published in the Cla
