At whereas, the people of the Northern State. impelled by a spirit of avarice and fanatitisrm, manifest, both by their acts andl sentiients, a settled purpose to undermjine and o4?rthrow our institutions, & trample upon our ghts; while the action of the present Gove'nanont emn now ex. cludes us from a pa icipation in privileges guarantied by the C nutitution equally to all, and will, if unmsisted, make us the vassals of the North. 4nd whereas, we are fu !y impressed with sense of the import. ance of harmonious News awl united ac lion, whether in direcly resisting aggres. sion, or in dissolvini an alliance which th eatens and endang,,en our freedom. And whereas, we cherish as undoubting confi. dunce, that doubly armd with a just cause, we ive only to unite 'n order to secure its triunph: we, therefore, the undersigned citizeia of Claremon, Election County, uniting heart and h and with one another, aitm4 with all othere associated together, in defence of Southern Rights, do adopt fur our Association, the following CO )NSTITU'I'JON.

Proclamation, 3V JOItN ANTHONY QUIT3IAN, GOVERINORt OF THE eTATF. OF MISSISSPIt. Whereas, the people of Mississippi have repeatedly in public meetings, in popular .oinventions, and by Legislative resolves, :aitnsed and asserted their equality of right with the other States of this Union, in and o the free u e and enjoyment of the ierr. ory belonging in common to these United States; and have frequently & publicly de flared their fixed determinat.ion, at all hiz. mrels, to maintain these rights, so essential to their freedomg and equtality. A md tehereas, by recent acts of Congres-, the people of Mlississippi, in cosmmon with the citiens of all the slaveholding States, have been virtually excluded from their just rights, in the greater portion, if not all; of the vast and rich territeries acquaired From Mexico in the late war; aswl thus, by unjust and mssultinig discrimainations, the ad. vantages and benefits of the Federal Union, have been denied to them.
