The ELECTORAL DISTRICT CoNvENT1oN.-
The various parishes 81 this district, says the
Baton Rouge Gazette were so badly represent
ed that the Convention met and adjourned to
meet again on the third Monday Of thismonth
at the same time with the State Convention.
There is no question that the assembling OF
the State Convention SO soon deferred the
party from sending delegates now, and we
think it acted wise, in as much as it will, in
all respects. be more convenient.
