such a Body would be at some distant
time convened. 1t should meet at once,
and determine at once, before the day
arrives for the. Inauguration OF a biack
Republican President.
do not think it COMFORTS with the
honor and selfrespect Of louisiana, as
a s%laveholding State, to live under the
Government of q Black Republican Pre-
sjdcut. ! will not dispute the fact that
| Mr.. Lincoln is elected according to tue
ferns of the Constitution; but the great
est outrages, both upon public and pri-
yate rights, have been pcrpetrated nnder
the forms Of law. This question rises
high above ordinary political cons'defa
tons. 1t involves our present honor,
and our future existence as a tree ana
independent people. 1t may be sad
that when this Union was formed 1t was
intended to be perpetual. So it was, SO
far as such a term can be applied to any
thing human; but it was also intended
to be administered in the same sp'r't IN
which it was made, with q scrUpulous
regard to the equality Of the Sovereign
ties composing it.. We certainly are
not placed in the position of subjects of
a European despotism, whose only door
of escape from tyranny is the right OF
revolution. maintain the right OF each
State to secede from the Union, and
therefore whatever curse Louisiana
NAV pursue now, if any attempt should
be made by the Federal Government to
coerce a Sovereign State, and compel
her to submission to an authority which
she has ceased to recognize, should I'M
hesitatingly recommend that Louisiana
assist her sister State with the same
alacrity and courage that the Colonies
assisted each other in their struggle
against the despotism of the Old World
I'll am not mistaken in public opinion,
the Convention, if assembled, will decide
that Louisiana will not submit to the
Presidency of Mr.. Lincoln. In the tenn.
per of the Northern mind it is not pos
sible to foresee the course or policy hat
Congress may determine upon, and 1t IS
the part of wisdom to prepare ourselves
for any emergency that its legislation
may pro duce. 1tecolh'i,enu
the creation of a Military BOARD, or Com
mission, whose duty it shall be to pur-
chase arm and Distribute them to vol
~unteer military companies throughout
the State, under 2 system to be devised
bv the Board. i A liberal appro-
prriation ought be made by the Gen
eral AssemHy-not less than half a mil
lion Of dallars-to be expended, under
the authority of the Board, in the pnr'
chascof the bestmade arms, of the most
improved patterns. Even if our rela.
tons with the Federal Government were
other than tlmy are, should still recon-
mend the same appropriation; for the
State may be said to be almost entirely
without arms, as 'you will find by refer
ence to the report Of the Adjutant Gen
eral, which accompanies this message.

grWe take the following extract
from Governor Moore's special message
to the General Assembly, which con-
vened on the 10th inst. Want Of room
forbids II publishing more, although
the document is not very lengthy:
/ have earnestly desired that a Con.
ference or Convention Of the slavehold-
ing States should be held in order that
they might counsel together. and act
unitedly in this grave crisis. I still de.
sire that such a Conference shall be had,
if practicable. in point Of time. Louisi
ana ought not to refuse to meet her sis.
ter slaveholding States in council, and
there nnitedly determine upon a firm de.
.inland to be made Of tile Northern States
for the repeal Of their obnoxious Iegisla.
ton. and the guarantee and security 81
those rights, which have SO long been
pcrsistcntly refused. Still, although
sncIl a course has seemed to my mind
desirable, and I had hoped that prac
teal and practicable plan might ere this
have been suggested to accomplish this
object, ] do not think the action of Lou
isiana slionld be unrcasonably postpone

poIsrE COUPE, Dec. 10, 1860.
Editor Democrat-The Echo, in its
last issue, had an editorial suggesting
several of our most worthy citizens as
fit persons to represent this parish in
the Convention to be held for the pur-
pose Of deciding what our States action
should be in the present political cribs.
We checrfully admit that all thy hon
orable gentlemen suggested by ne Echo
are highly deserving of polio trust;
for it is, we believe, agreed that past
political differences Of opinion are to
have nothing to do With the coming con-
But, inasmuohf. q there has been, 50
far, no expression Of public sentiment in
favor Of any particular candidate for the
Convention, and as. consequently, the
people are free to choose, as they ought
70 be, the men who are to representatives.
in the approaching Convention, allow
us to present Mr.. AuousrE PRovosrY to
the consideration Of the people Of this
parish. @Is
Mr.. Provosty is well knownito us all.
He has once represented this, lis native
parish. in tl1aaState Senate. where. as
chairman Of the Judiciary Committee
and others of great Importance, he Sc
cured an influence which enabled him to
render to this parish services. nopdoubt,
still remembered by all. sTssu2
o Mr.. Provosty's views, in reference to
the present position Of the South, are
well known, and were fully expressed
by him long before the last Presidential
election. He il . strong and decided
Southern State Rights man, possesses al
energetic mind, a strong will, and talent
to sustain his views. No one can &C
cuse him Of being a demagogue or poll
tician. Hc is a Creole, too, by the way
and although we do not claim this as
decisive in his favor. it ought to weigh
something III the minds of those VIII,
think that the ancient population IS en-.
titled totbe heardinsthe presentipolitical
crisis. NJ FI
We therefore present his name, Will
