The Daguerreotype.

=E@E-@@
There is just now going on a singu.
lar revolution in the minds of the PEG.
pie on the subject of art.
The Daguerreotype, the first perfect,
ed picture taken by the process, has for
sometime been banished from public IA
ver; the Photograph, Melaineotype, and
Ambrotype succeeded in the favor of
the people.
The strangeTevolution marked, is the
disposition of the people to return to
the Daguerreotype. All substitutes for
1t are having their day, and being ra-
pldly found wanting in the most essen
tia characteristic of a picture-dura5-
asty. The old original Daguerreotype
will last a lifetime, while the Photo.
graph fades, the Ambrotype blisters.
and the Me~laineotype .oxidises. Their
very process makes them perishable
The operation of the laws of nature dc.
stroys them, while the other old and dis.
used picture a only fail by the slow
natural process Of the disposition of all
things to fade.

Senatorial Convention.

No time Oh place has yet been affixed
for the holding of Democrats Senator
ial Convsntioa to nominate = candidate
for Senator for this District, composed
West F%eliciana, Pointe Coupee and
Avoyelles. We have heard Of the 4th
Tuesday of May-thc day previous to
the assembling of the State Convention
suggested as a proper time, n the
Court House of Pointe Coupee as a pro.
per place. What do our contreres OF
the Ledger, the Echo, and the Democrat
say to this?-C Central Organ.
The place suits us we'll enough, but as
to the time it seems to us too early. NO
steps as yet have been taken in this
parish for any nomination whatever, and
our Conventions may not take place be-
fore Chat epoch. Besides, why notput
off the Senatorial Convention about the
time Of the Congressional one? The lat
ter part of June is time sufficient for the
nomination of a candidate by three par
isles only. When our Convention meets,
there is no doubt steps will be taken for
the nomination of a Senator, also to fix
the time and place. Let us wait for the
wagon!

CREvAssEs.-The N. @. Courier says:
We are threatenedbyn no less. than three
crevasses. One, at the old spot Of last

plantation. Another at Sauve1s planta-
tion, sixteen miles up the river, and the
third and last one still nearer the city
in the Third District directly opposite
the tobacco warehouses. Strenuous eff
forts are being made to- prevent them
from breaking entirely through the en-
bankment, which 50 far we learn have
been successful. Il
