1866, of CONGESTION, of IL days illness, Mrs.
JANE MARTIN TURNER, eonsort of Mr.. James
A. Heron, in the 47th year of her age. She
was a native of Fairfield District, s. c., but
removed to Louisiana in 1916. She united
with the Presbyterian Church of Mount
Lebanon, s. c., in 1912, and when she came
to this State, embraced the very first oppor-
tunity to unite in organizing church here,
So in 1859, when the Rocky Mount Church
was started, she was one of the first to hand
in her name. In the meantime she en-
braeed every proper occasion to honor her
Savior with sister denominations She was
no sectarian bigot, but model, charitable,
christian lady. She leaves six children with
parable loss. Two lovely babes preceded
her to the land of the blest. What joyful
greetings on her arrival inside the gates of
the City! Glorious union freed from cor
ruption, care and sin, back in the full enjoy
ment of God to all eternity fr
In all the relations life, as wife, mother,
mistress, neighbor and friend, Mrs. HEBRON
was almost unrivalled So kind, gentle,
charitable, piOus, her end was like her life,
peaceful, tranquil. She passed away as the
summer evenings zephyr. She gave mes
sages to her children, husband, physician
and others around her bed--even the SER
wants were not forgotten--then folded her
arms, closed her eyes, and fell asleep in

Louisiana Convention.

The proceedings held at the recent
Free State or Union convention, at
New Orleans at which forty persons
were killed by the mob and more than
hundred wounded were disgraceful in
the extreme.
Il is directly the result Of letting the

down, the result ef the doctrines pro

water politicians who propose to hold a
convention at Philadelphia, and the
doctrines advocated by the Democracy
The free State convcntionists proposed
nothing moblike or even wrong. The
object ftheir convention was the taking
of initia:ory steps to amend the State
Constitution. They had right to NEE,
in convention for this or any other pc
ii,ical purpose. Bat those rebel fiends
denied them the privilege and declared
that mob law should rule, and suited
action to the word. The police force
being in sympathy with the mob, did
not quell the disturbance until after il
had accomplished its parpose. The

Atty. General Speeds Reply.
A short time since Atty. General
Speed received from Sepator DoolittIs
Of Wisconsin printed copy Of . call fof
the l4th Of August Philadelphia con.
vention, with the request that II the
call aud its principles enunciated met
his approval to reply at his earliest
convenience.
Mr.. Speed did take the privilege 10
reply although not agreeing with the
principles enunciated in the CALL
The following are few extracts FROM
his manly and patriotic reply. Do not
fail to read them.
II will briefly state my reasons, first
promising that | do not recognize the
very respectable gentlemen who have
made this call as the acknowledged
organs Of the great Union party Of the
country. Since the outbreak OF the
, terrific struggle from which the country
has now emerged, we have had ma.
tional Union party that has exhibited
more devotion, made greater sacrifice
and manifested more unse'6sh patriotism
than any party ever did previously in
the history of the world. That party
is still In being, with its organization irt
fact and its organs known; and az
that party, by its faith, its doctrines
ard its exertions has, in tie face OF the
prophecies Of half the New and all the
/ Old World, saved the Government and
the republican institutions Of our cons
mon country from Decentralization and
indeed from utter ruin, by vindicating
At ali hazards the primordial theory OF
the eternal, indissoluble union Of the
States, through which only can par
ticle Of the theory OF State Rights ever
be maintained and carried out, it would
appear to me to be still the only, or at
any rate the most, effectual means, A.
far as party can do it, for finally adj.
/ ius,ing all the remaining minor and 0tt-
settled matters Of reconstruction con~
sisten,!y with the requirements Of tbs
theory mentioned.
This party is tie same TO day as is
! was in the days Of its trial the satrc
party now as when, but few shotc
months ago, it elected Lincoln and
Johnson, and the majority Of the pre-
sent Congress and as I acted With il
then for paramount reasons, my sense
Of duty demands that remain and acf
with It now.
] The pi,h and marrow Of the present
call, should say, tends toward con.
vention to form party Of sastaiuingr
not the Government en,ire,-"as has
been tho mission Of the Union party
but department Of the Government
and here I must take the liberty OF
adding that I can hardly conceive Of
any sadder spectacle under the crisis
Of present circumstances than that OF
the tried Union party Of this country
becoming d,sioca,ed and broken up by
divisions, or tha. of one branch Of the
Government Of the country taking an
isolated position upon questions Of deep
and common interest, and placing itself
in hostile conflict with co.ordiaats
