DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION.

The Convention recently assembled at Bayou
Sara, TO nominate a successor 10 Gen. Dawson
in Congress from the Stale Of Louisiana, on The
81 ballot agreed 10 the selection OF John Ii. Har-
monson Of Avoyeles. His competitors Tor The
nomination were w. D. Boyle Of West Feliciana,
and Thomas G.. Davidson OF Livingston. The
last ballot stood, Harmonson II, Boyle Is, Da-
wilson 2.
The New Orleans Jeffersonian says:
THE best spiri, prevailed. Harmonson was
afterwards nnan1amndy nominated, ana WIZ
command The entire strength OF the parry IN Inc
district He is a man Of talents, OF generous al
tributes, and as lrue and orthodox Democrat as
ever lived. No man could fill with more credlt
the seat OF The amen,ed Dawson. The section OF
the district in which Mr.. Harmonson lives had
strong claims on The Convention. The Eastern
parishes have had the Congressman heretofore
and West Peliciana, wherc MIR. Boyle resides
has now The candidate for Governor. This con-
sileration, no doubt had its weight The Con-
ycniion adjourned with The determination 10 elect
MIR. Harmonson, and we understand thai Messrs
Davidson and BOYLE will give him The most ac-
1--we support. This is Just what we expected rom
those true Hearted and talented gentlemen, whom
the Democracy will always be ready TO honor
and support"
Later accounts speak Of The enthusiasm with
which The nomination was received, and Of HIS
probable election by 900 majority.

On TUESDAY, the 18Th instant Immediately on

ceived a message from the family OF The Hon

Mr. Kendall 10 take sucha part IL this lnvestiea-
ion then about 10 commence III this Hall, as he
(Mr. d. might deem advisable After the brief
reflection allowed him, he concluded that The

10 his fair fame, which was all that was itt Q:

Indeed, one Of MIR kendal's earliest remarks
10 him (Mr. d } was, that he deemed The posi-
ton OF young Elliott as even more unfortunate
than that OF his deceased son.
Mr. Hoban then rose, and, in an able arsu-
ment, commended thatihe case pyimia facie was one
OF willul deliberate murder in law. and that the
Justices therefore could not take bail.

The great mass of the people act from no sense Of
duty and governed by standard ofrght but are
influenced entirely by numbers, and judge ofhe sound
ness and success Of from the popular favor and
amount Plumbers Of which they can boast This spir-
it has almost destroyed the native energy and glory of
the Church it has not been holiness ofheart and sound
principle after which most of our churches have
been striving but to add to their nuubers that they
may glory in their numerical strength. The result has
been that Our churches arc loaded down with rubbish
which it is almost impossible to remove, and it requires
oil the strength and energy of the living, gody
bers of the church. to carry the dead We have
sought to make religion poptar instead of parc, to null
tipy converts rather than add to the graces and the
moral power Of the church. We have looked to Nun
JaS than to Got for help and as the result Of
our wckednoss, He has to great extent withdrawn
his spirit from the church, and thrown around her
moral darkness, such as has not been witnessed since
the dark ages.
1t is trust in God more than numbers and firm ad-
horance to the standard of eternal right come sunshine
or storm, that makes church strong and vigorous
Until we are willing to occupy this ground, God will
ever frown upon efforts to save souls, and laugh at
our apparent zeal for his cause, Until christians are
disposed to cry out against all the prevailing sins ofthe
land, whether they gain friends or foes by so doing, UNI
til they willing totrow aroundth poorest and most
despsed of Gods children the mantle of their charity
and love- whether there be few many to assist them
their prayers are but mockery, and their religion but
name.
The same truths are applicable to the Liberty party
We ought to seek more to make our cause and Oh
principles such God can approve and bless, than Ia
Dor to increase our numbers by the use of means tina
will drive Him from our midst. So long He is witt
us our cause is sure of success, and need not oa
as to numbers but without HIM even success would b.
worse than defeat while enjoying His appreciation AM
His smiles. In fact while He is with us there can
no defeat and without him no true success.
