Scathing Resolutions. The “Exposition Exhibitors’ Association”, of Atlanta, at a meeting held on the 6th inst., adopted the following resolu tions: Whereas, The public expres sion of representative men who hare visited the Atlanta exposi tion have been of a conciliatory character, marked by evidence of the broadest patriotism and the most sincere fraternity, and Whereas, This characteristic has been true regarding the ex pressions of distinguished visit ors who came from the north, the east, the west or the south, and Whereas, The friends and promoters of the Atlanta fair, by reason of the many fraternal expressions their enterprise had provoked from patriots of all parts of the Union, had begun to regard the more friendly re lations between the different sections of our common country as one of the best and most gratifying results likely to grow out of their stupendous enter prise, therefore be it Resolved, By the Exhibitors’ association of said Atlanta ex- sition, a body composed large- a citizens and p- all parts of the posit fy of Mr. Burn on the Constitutional Con vention, fNevrs and Courier! When the Constitutional Con vention "met September 10,1895, '* ’* *- *-* is# 4 —^ r«S- it is to be presumed that it I boyg an d girls. 8h® is sufficient- presented the trendy of^thought jy developed in the uhvsicul to , she would make old and wise : , answers to questions that might ! I arise. However, there is about i her i othing indicatingth;tt kino of precociousness which is some times alarming in cases of .little Union and all shades of politic al opinion, that we deeply de plore the one marked flagrant exception to the heretofore pre vailing expressions of frater nity, brotherly love, patriotism and loyalty, that was made manifest at this exposition on South Carolina day, and in which the ex governor of that State, Ben Tillman, and the pre sent governor, John Gary Evans, were the offenders. Resolved, Thafwe know, from our contact and intercourse for the past few months with south ern people, that in ami inflammatory Utterances those two rantijjp dftm<atfnek are a libel on the betterCTHsof southerners and do not give voice to the prevailing southern sentiment. Resolved, That we sympathise with the southern States of our Uuion in the affliction which compels them to endure such blots on their inter worth uud such clogs to their merited prog ress; and we especially sympa tbize with the ignorance that must yet prevail in South Caro lina to make it possible for such scum to rise to the surface. Resolved, that for the fame and good name of the Atlanta exposition, at which these men were unfortunately permitted to speak, we denounce their speeches as being devoid of rea son, sense and patriotism, and we repudiate the speakers. In this we feel confident we are but voicing the sense of our country and the earnest feelings of the better people of all the southern States. Resolved, That we sympath ize also with the management of this exposition that under the cloak of temporary authority two such fanatics should have been able to intrude their utter ances upon the otherwise healthy and satisfactory proceedings that have characterized this en terprise. But while dismissing the utterances of these men as unworthy of further notice from our association or the country, we do not forget that in the f eneral economy of nature man- ind must have his troubles and communities their afflictions. It is not many years since Cali fornia was greatly annoyed by a brace of bandits known as Evans and Sontag, and the ex hibition witnessed here on the 88th of November is but an evi dence that South Carolina in its turn is enduring, through its own indiscretions, a season of torment from its Tillman and Evans. Committee for association: J. A Filcher, California, chair man;J. William Ports, Mary land, W. F. Anthony, Virginia; Bennett, Tennessee; C. H. Rob bins, Boston. Approved: George Johnson, President, Exhibitors’ Associa tion. and feeling as it two factions of the Democratic party. There were many forebodings among the people that those sentiments and feelings would be manifested in the debates and perpetuated in the Consti tution when adopted. Such, however, has not been the case. Factional lines began to dissolve as soon as the Con vention met. The unanimous election of Governor Evans as president and the election of the Hon. W. J. Talbert and Speak er Jones as vice presidents was an augury of peace and concord. While there have been sharp intellectual conflicts, and at times fierce clashings of mind with mind they were mainly confined to evolving the great principles of constitutional law and preserving the rights and liberties of the citizen. Every conflict ended in mut ual respect for the abilities and conscientious convictions of the ctive opponents in the physical to give her balance of body in matters of daily life for her moral and intellectual manifest ations” Claretta is with her mother; and the Rev.

These friendships will doubtless en dure for life, and will have a good effect on our people at large, who desire to see South Carolina united. What a sublime sight was witnessed in Atlanta on Caroli na day, when twenty thousand gallant men and beautiful wo men represented in serried ranks to the world the chivalry and beauty of the old Palmetto State. May she ever stand united, glo rious and happy. The News and Courier de serves tne thanks of the Con vention and of the people of the State for the full and accurate reports, and the fair criticisms hich it has made on the pro ceedings of the Convention and the courtesy with which it has treated the members.

It lays no claim to perfection, but is a laborious, patient and honest effort of patriotic men to serve their State and unite our people. Hknry C. Burn.
