The '6i Convention.

Yesterday, the 3oth, was the day
set tor the reconstruction of this per-
turbed body, by its so-called Presi-
dent pro tem., Hon. R. K. Howell,
who has recently made a trip to
Washington and back, in quest of
whatever crumbs of comfort and en-
enlargement he could find at head
quarters and along the way to help
>ustain the resuscitating project Of
which he appears to be the head and
{ ont.
1t will be curious and interesting,
says the New Orleans Bee, to OBJ
serve to what lengths this politically
distraught gentleman and his coad-
TUTORS may be led by the hallucina-
ton that they hold in their hands The
constituent authority and functions
of the Site and its people. 1t is TO
be hoped that if their Sc take a
virulent development, sufficient room
for their accommodation may BIZ
found in some asylum or retreat,
ad 'pted to their proper keeping.
Meantime Gov. Wells, in response to
he call of the "President pro
tem.," has RENTED to the Secretary
of State, for due authorization and
PRONUNCIATION, proclamation order
ing an election on the Sd Of Septem-
Der to fill vacancies in the Conven-
ton. As the original Convention
represented but small number of
Parishes and an insignificant portion
of the people, and as the seats of
many who served as members will
be vacant, the newly elected members
would constitute very large part Of
the body.
The Governors proclamation pro-
| vides that they shall be elected by
voters qualified under the existing
Constitution and laws, Thus elected
it is not probable that they would be
favorable to the objects for which the
Constitution is reconvoked. Should
they be numerous enough to defeat
hose objects, it would render the
reconvoca ionists spectacle of equa
amazement aud commis4ration. But
it is needless to speculate in this con
nection. The Sd of September il
not far off. Congress will be in va
cation then. The National Unior
will have met and acted then. The
Grand Jury may have, ere that time
given a practical import to Judg,
Abell's recent charges.

HEBREW FEsTIvAL.-The cere-
mony Of consecrating the Holy
Scrolls (Sephar) was duly performed
on Saturday last by the Hebrew
Congregation ."Shaari Chased" in
their synagogue in this city. The
ceremonies were of a highly interest
ny and impressive character. A
discourse from the Rev j. Gu theim,
the learned rabbi, of New Orleans.
and an extempore address from that
talented and eloquent young lawye'
Alex. Dalsheimer, Esq, wer,
treats which contributed largely to
the intellectual enjoyment of the nu,
merous and respectable audience
present.
At the close of the ceremonies and
proceedings in the synagogue, The
aggregation and visitors sat down
to a collation. spread out beneath a
beautiful arbor of grapes in the yard
of Mr.. l.. Dalsheimer, where social
ity, harmony and good feeling ruled
the hour.
A grand ball at "Steve's," given
by the young Mems Association "
in the evening constituted most
agreeable winding up Of the days
observances.
We were among the many who
were present and realized the enjoy
ments of that memorable day in our
midst, and we regret that our present
limited space compels US to restrict
our narrative of the pleasing incl
dents connected with it, to this brief
and imperfect notice.

DEPLoRABLE EVENT. : Our citi
gems were painfully shocked on Sat.
urday morning a the intelligence,
which was spread among them of the
death Of John Daily Burk, son OF
the late Judge John J. Burk, which
occurred on the night previous in a
most deplorable manner. He was at
his home, in company with bis sisters
and other members of the family, al
the time. They were all on the gal
lery in front of the house, when a
ball, fred from gun by a negro, as
was afterwards ascertained, took
effect in the side of the unfortunat.
young man and killed him almost in.
stautly. The patrol OF colored
guards who were going their rounds,
hearing the report of the gun and
the screams, which issued from the
family, repaired promptly tothe spot,
and after searching about in the
.neighborhood gsucceeded in finding
not very far off, negro with mus.
ket, whom they arrested, and who
confessed to having discharged biz
gun at ran lom, without any intenttc
kill. r ports Of a conflicting nature
speak of circumstances which tend to
fasten guilt upon the negro. Foot
steps, and other signs, as of somt
one having crawled and laid in wait
were discovered about the premises
The arrested party was committed
to Jail. Such are the main particu
lars we have CLEANED respecting this
tragic event.
Mr. Burk was of quiet, gentl'
disposition and possessed a characte.
which had won for him the respec
aid esteem of all who knew him
h had been a soldier i the lat
Confederate service, and was honore'
for his bravery and fidelity as such
His remains were followed to thei
last resting place on Saturday after
noon, by a large concourse OF mourn
ing and sympathizing friends an'
acquaintance.

MRs, ISABEL MUIR departed this life on
the 18th OF Nov. 1866. in the Goth year of he n
age, near Cedar Falls, Iowa.
She was born in Frazersburgh, Scotland.
Her parents were members of the Presbyter-
IAN church; consequently she was favored
with good christian education. She came to
the United states with her parents, in the
seventh year of her age. Soon after coming
to this country the family settled near Lock
port Illinois. Here she sustained a great loss,
In The death Of her excellent and pious Father.
But her Mother proved herself equal To tho
emergencies of the case, and not on ly strenrth
encd the religious principles and character of
her daughter, but gave her liberal education.
Eighteen years since, she was happily united
In marriage to Mr.. John Muir, and he, togeth
with five children, survive her.
About nine years since, she felt tho necessity
OF more thorough conservation of heart and
lie To the work and service Of Cod A
an Indispensable qualification for this, she ear.
hsstly sought and obtained an evidence of par.
don for her sins, and acceptance with God
soon afterthis she united with the NJ. f. Church

Heaven. Her family left behind is draped in
mourning, but they do not sorrow as those who
have no hope.
An analysis of her character, shows her TO
nave been woman OF warm friendship and
cheerful disposition, uniform and nmiable In
her temperament.and unwaverlnglln her fnIth
aud christian fidelity. Surely, the Church
her family. and Society each sustains no orii
dary loss, when such one Is taken away.
AS might be expected. her DEATH though sud.
ueh ana preceded with great pain was pence.
iul ana triumphant. while she resigned her
husband and children to the care of n kind
and covenant keeping God
The day previous to her death. she with
strong emphasis frequently repeated the fol-
lowing lines:
My God Is reconciled
. His pardoning voice hear,
lie owns me for his child
/ cnn no longer fear"
Finallr,whcn The parting hour came. she re.
qu"stod her husband to Join her II, singing.
