A Good Sign-THe Boys for Scoa.--In this
community four-ffths of the boys are Scor1
men, if we are allowed to form a conclusion
from very strong and unmistakable signs; and
our past experience warrants US in asserting
that success never fails to follow wherever
their sympathies are enlisted. They are in our
Office almost every day In search of Wing
songs, and We anticipate they will make a fine
display on the day Of the Barbecue which is
shortly to take place here. You are on the
right track, boys, stick to it and never waver.-
If you desire to hold a meeting, appoint officers,
marshals, &C., We will help you along by giving
publicity to your proceedings. Give us the
friendship of the boys, say We.

Convention of Country Editors.

We would respectfully suggest to our con-
temporaries throughout the interior of the
State the propriety of assembling in Conven-
ton and adopting such measures for our flu.
ture guidance, interests and dignity, as may be
deemed proper and justiiable. The reason
why the suggestion is made to country editors
particularly, results from the fact that the in.
terests of the city press and the country press
are almost wholly Of a different character.
The conductor of a country paper for any
length of time, cannot fail to perceive that
there is something radically wrong, in a pecu-
MARY point of view particularly, in the manner
in which he is forced to conduct his Journal, or
not conduct it at all. This is only one of the
many reformations which is demanded of u.s.
if we regard our rights and our social standing,
and which can only be remedied by unanimous
declaration, and unanimous action after that
declaration.
There is much that could be said upon this
subject, making altogether a powerful argu-
ment in favor of the necessity of a convention
of the country editors of Louisiana, but we
have not space at present to devote to a sub
ject SO personal; and probably, on the floor of
the convention, in justification of its assem-
bling, and as outlines for the connecting of re-
solutions, would doubtless be the most proper
place for those arguments to be elucidated.
We would be glad to hear the views of our
brethren of the press upon this subject, and
if our views are in accordance with THERE,
would respectfully suggest that New Orleans,
the first Monday in December next, would
be a proper place and time for the assembling
Of said convention.

We Decline.-We received a letter from
Clinton, La, a few days since, desiring US to
send our paper to the address given, upon the
terms we offered in reference to the result OF
the Presidential election. As the writer did
not pay the postage on his letter, we have the
very best Of reasons to believe that he would
not pay us for our paper even if SCOTT were
elected. Therefore, we decline.

Deceptive Idkens.--The Journal Of Com
merce states that large quantities of false to-
kens, ostensibly issued as business cards, are
manufactured at Waterbury, CT, closely re-
sembling the double eagle, the eagle and half
eagle, in circulation. They are richly gilt with
pure gold, and except the inscription, resemble
the genuine coin so closely as to deceive the
unwary.

Wing line.

Another Fazsehood Erposed-We invite at
~tention to the following letter, to show to what
lengths our opponents are going. To let them

R%osEBAsK, Aug. 18th, 1859.
Mr.. Stanard-Dear Sir: Permit me the use
of your columns for the purpose of correcting
a statement made in the Baton Rouge Advo-
cate, 10y its correspondent at Clinton. who,
speaking of the Wing Ratification meeting
which took place in East Feliciana on the 3lst
ult., says that "Gen. Barrow was there, and was
heard to say (by some one in the crowd that
if the Wings expected him to speak against
Pierce and King they were mistaken" Were
it not for the position | occupy as one of the
substitutes on the electoral ticket, | would not
condescend 10 notice a remark which is of such
doubtful authenticity; but believing the state
ment was made with the view of %iniuring the
party to which | belong, | feel it my duty to
say that the author of the assertion has perpe-
trated a positive falsehood.
In conclusion, ! would express my astonish-
ment that any respectable journal should make
public a statement, calculated to injure either
an individual or party, based upon such fimsy
authority; and | expect that the Advocate will
DO me the justice to correct the mistake.
Very truly yours,
RoBT. J. BARROW.

Pierce's Anti-slavery Sentiments.

As we intimated was our opinion, General
PIERCE, in the letter which he has written be-
low, makes no mention Of the interrogation of
Mr.. Foss, during his speech at New Boston in
January last; and as the language attributed to
him in his reply to that interrogation (about
| which he is %silent) is the only point or occur
| renee during that speech about which the
| South cares to know the truth or falsity, it is
| most remarkable that he should not give it, al
least, a passing notice; and we cannot see how
his omission to do so, can be considered in any
other light than as a s~uJteJuge--for it is falla-
cious in the extreme for any one to say that
Gen. PIERCE was ignorant of the excitement
which this Foss episode in the New Boston
speech was creating throughout the South;
the conclusion, then, to be drawn from this
most extraordinary omission, is, that not being
able to allude to it without eliminating himself,
he confines himself in this. letter entirely to the
speech he made on the occasion alluded TO-, and
refers to his previous votes, as sufficient guar
antee for his soundness on the Slavery ques-
ton. Now, we have previously said that we
could easily believe that the speech of General
PIERCE to which he refers, was one of patriot
ism, sustaining the laws, constitution, &C.;
this was the POLICY of the politician; his re-
ply to MFR. Foss, where he says, eff l must an
swer," &c. shows the of the man.
Would it be safe to elect a man to the Pres;-
dency whose feeling of duty conflicted with
his sense of right? But, to
