A Mississippian'* Speech-He Goes In
?j for Joass t'osnty. ?
One sturdy man in the Mississippi
State Convention-a delegate named
Crawford, from Jones-County-made
?is mark as an original talker. One
of.his speeches was as follows:
"Mr. President-Sir: I have come
up here to express the feelins of my
constituents on the great subjec. I
come up here, sir> to represent my
constituents where I come from.
People hoot and wink u^ the streets,
and say, 'there goes mossy-back from
Jones;' but, sir, I have no prejudices:
I am disposed to treat my enemies in
amore Christian, a more missionary
spirit than they treated me. I am a
mossy-back, sir, and I stand lier? to?
day to represent thc county of J ones,
otherwise known as 'the free State of
Jones.'
'.But let not people think to insult
me with impunity. I love a dog for
" his faithfulness, but the yelping of
puppies I despise. People said that
the County of Jones, tho free State of
Jones, seceded from Mississippi. Yes,
sir, we did secede from thc: Confede?
racy, and, sir, we fought them like
dogs, we killed thom like devils, we
buried them like asses-yea, like
asses, sir! My people down there in
the County of Jones, did, in their
sovereign capacity, did secede, and
did become messy-backs, ?dr. We
did fight them like dogs, and will kill
them like hellions-like hellions, I
say; sir. But I didn't come up here
to gas, sir, and I surrender my righi s
to the floor, expressing only the one
sentiment, that I stand up for the
County of Jones in general ; yes, sir,. I
am for Jones all the time."
At another time, referring to the
" opposition to the Constitutional
Amendment because it did not provide
for compensating, slave-owners, Mr.
Crawford said:
"Tho principle of the opposition to
?the section, introduced in the report
of the committee seems to be remu?
neration. I agree to that aniend
. ment, were it broad enough, but in
the essential all the provisos fall
short. These provisos have only
aimed at the remuneration to certain
classes who have heretofore been the
owner's of African slaves, while I,
Mr. President, represent women and
children Sf the Caucasian- race, whose
cries aro now ascending in my 'down?
trodden county for bread. Yes, sir,
in my suffering county of Jones, to?
day, the wails of three hundred and
eighty widowed women and shirt-tail
children are ascending before the God
of right, and appealing in tears to the
powers appointed for relief; ye't in
^ie midst of these facts, it appears
that the entire sympathies of this
body are directed to that class who
are presumptively suffering from the
passagoapf the section under conside?
ration. TI appeal, in honesty, to this
convention to remember the white
race, and not to be wholly absorbed
in the African.
COME BACK TO, WORK.-Ljast week
a young freeman (not a "freedman")
of color, returned to his father's
house, after a sojourn in Yankee-land
for nine months. He left this place
with Gen. Sherman's army in Novem?
ber, 18G4. Though born free, and
noVer having known anything of
slavery, he was captivated by the idea
of freedom among the Yankees, and
left a good home, with his father, to
try his fortune in distant lands. He
tried it. He went to New York and
to other places, and, after nine months
experience, he has returned, as we
have said, last week, content to go to
work Vitii his father for a bare sup?
port.
This* able-bodied young man was
born free, but he thought his father
was too tight'a master for him, so he
concluded to unite his fortunes with
other colored men of this place, and
joined the grand army of runaways
that left with Gen. Sharman. He
drifted about in the sea of ."freedom"
for nine months, and finding it a
"hard ro?ul to travel," returned, like
the Prodigal son, to spend the bal?
ance of his days in the. uso of the
shovel and the hoe, a wiser and a bet1
terhan.-Milledgevitte Union. 6
