The Plot Opening.

We find the following in the Crescent
of Yesterday, and ~chcerfully comply
with the request of the signers to give
it publicity. 1t shall not be our fault II
the production does not obtain the great
est publicity, in every nook and corner
of the State; and undergo the scrutiny
of every honest Democrat who lives
within It's borders.
STATE PRESIDENTIAL CoSvENTIoS-WhereaS,
In view Of the imminent dangers which are
now threatening the Southern States from an
.irreprcssible conflict" Of sectional fanaticism,
wased against their domestic institutions, and
in utter disregard Of the rights secured 10
them under the Const luton.
And whereas, There exists no State or Fed
eral issues, of a political character to distract
and divide the people of Louisiana in the face
Of the impending Presidential crisis, in which
the continuance of the Union is involved:
And wherea>, il is earnestly desired that
the whole people Of the South shall stand to
gcther as a unit in the great aud patriotic
struggle to uphold and preserve the Const'iu-
ton and the Union, or, if heed be, to protect
Nd dsleadutbeir separate independence, We,
thS undersigned, Democratic members OF the
legislature and c;tizelseof ms State, do car.
nestly recommend to the people Of b srsee'
pectiye parishes, irrespective OF former po'it
cal differences, 10 meet together in cordial de-
termination TO support the nominee OF the
Charleston Convention, and appoint their del
eca,cs TO NEE in the Democratic State Con-
yention at Baton Rouge for the purpose Of ap
pointing delegates to represent LOUISIANA u
the approaching National Convention a.

into our camp, satisfied that II a favora-
bic moment offers, they will slaughter
us without conjunction.
The whole thing is simply a plot
against the harmony and integrity OF
the Democracy of Louisiana and II sue
c~essful, its first effect will be to secure
the dishonor and disgrace of the me
t~ropolis of the Southwest, by having
her represented at Baton Rouge and
perhaps at Charleston, by a set OF dele
gates who endorse Stephen A. Doug
las the very man to whose pestIent
and restless ambition, and the spite
which its disappointment engendered, is
owing, more than all other causes com
bined, the very critical dangers which
Heron, Gray Il Co. affect so much to
dcplore. But we rather think that the
engineers in the scheme will be hoisted
by their own petards.

1t is desired that editors throughout the
State will give publicity to the above.
About two years ago, three t%allors,
who imagined themselves Statesmen,
met in Dooley street, London, and pro-
ceedcd to adopt and proclaim thelrrem-
| edv for the existing evils of the British
Government. They thought that a tho
| rough revolution in affairs would follow,
but John Bull regarded the whole mat
| ter as shear nonsense, and still lives "a
prosperous gentleman doing quite as
well as could be expected under all the
circumstances, while the patriotic tan
lors, having gone on quietly i'll their la
Dor of shipping and stitching, have pro
badly long ago descended into obscure
graves, and are only remembered al
, tHhrae cratic and %pretcntious geese.
We regard the earnest recommends
ton" of Messrs. Heron, Gray and Delo
nv. and the lesser lights which fit be
meath their superior brightness in th
great work upon which they have en-
gagged, as quite a Doolcy street aiiai
with the Louisiana Democracy. Tn
shock which their battery may give
will dosbtless be survived, and the Dc
mocratic party of the State will live, a
though shorn of the honor of numbering
> them hereafter among its members.
, Nevertheless, this movement, col
d temptible as it may be in Itself, mus
not be disregarded by oar friends in ii
State. They should weigh it, and II
motives of those who are at the bottom
it, well; and at once trample under to-
the detection and treachery, which it b'
e so family conceals. 1t is best tn
