The Louisiana Black and Tan
Convention.

Saturday last completed thetwenty-sixth
day in session of the Louisiana Black and
Tan Convention. On that day it got as far
as the adoption of the second article of the
constitution" which is to the following
effect: "All persons, without regard to
race or color or previous condition, born
in the United States, and resident in
this State, shall enjoy the same
civil, political and public rights and priv
ileges, and be subject to the same pains and
penalties" The first article, adopted some
days previously, was mutilated extract
from the Declaration of Independence, as
follows: "All men are created free and
equal, and have certain inalienable rights !;
among which are life, liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness" The expenses of the
convention" have been not less than sixty
thousand dollars, exclusive of mileage, of
ficers' salary stationery, ETC., so that, SO far,
each word of the constitution has cost more
than six thousand dollars This too in a
State where the people are in situation
bordering on starvation, for want of money
to purchase food. a.-t

AIabama Claims.

The Ne,o York Tribune, upon the Alaba-
ma claims controversy. has dispatch from
Washington which states that, nothwith-
standing the abrupt termination of the cor
respondence on this subject between Secre-
tary Seward aud Lord Stanley, the new
English Minister, Mr.. Thornton, comes out
empowered, with full authority to reopen
the question with view of effecring, if pos
sible, an easy and amicable adjustment of
the difficulty. From the fact that the Uni
ted States authorities rejected the last pro-
posal for an arbitranent and that the En-
glish Government was equally promptin its
refusal to allow the doctrine of belligerent
rights, the impression generally prevails
that the matter Is at an end for the present.
1t appears, however, from advices recently
received in Washington, that the English
Ministry are not satisfied with the position
in which they are placed by the correspon.
dence. and have therefore instructed Mr..
Thornton to present another plan of adjust
meIit. d. II

Admirable Spirit.

We find, from our intercourse with the
Democratic Senators and Members that
have come up to enter upon the discharge
of their duties as law makers for Ohio, on
Monday next, that they are animated by a
most admirable spirit. They appreciate
the condition of affairs-are sensible of the
great distress that pervades the land, grow
ing out of wrong Congressional legislation,
wherein the Constitution has been violated
and disregarded, in the effort to establish
Negro supremacy in the South, and that
relief to the country can come only through
Democratic success next year. Consequent
ly, they feel that they should commit
equivalent to a great crime were they to do
aught to endanger Democratic success next
October and November. We do not think
the present General Assembly will disap-
point the high expectations of the Democ-

| As If by intuition, the sentiments of
members who never exchanged thought
and who were personally strangers to each
other, perfectly harmonize, and in almost
the same words they express the same
thoughts. The session will be one of a
short duration. In. the laws passed, while
the majority will apply the pruning hook
of reform with unsparing hand, to cut off

A New York correspondents enIightens

A New YORK correspondent enIightens
the readers of contemporary with regard
to fashionable weddings iii that city. He
states that, owing to the fashion of making
rich aud costly presents to the bride becom-
ing SO general, and also to the fact that it is
now expected of people accepting aninvi-
tatlon to attend wedding that they should
bring presents, the number of regrets
has increased to an alarming extent. To
remedy this state of things the custom is
now being introduced in New York ofput-
ting at the bottom of invitations, mo pres
ents will be received except from .rela-

There is Sunlight In the Sky.

There Is Sunlight In the Sky.
The fact that the largest portion of the
moneyed wealth of Ohio, and of the other
States, is locked up in Government bonds,
upon which the holders pay no taxes to the
State or General Government, but upon
which they draw higher rate of interest
than the laws of Ohio allows to her own
citizens who loan out their money, is caus-
ing feeling of Indignation among the tax
payers that Radicalism finds it hard to
quell. 5tfM .l.3@s55S- ffA
The idea that Congress, by law, can
override the constitution of State, in per-
mitting. q large amount of personal proper
ty from going upon the tax duplicate, is
one that neither scommends itself to justice
or to common sense. IGJ10o
The men who, in the present depressed
condition of the business of the country,
are forced to pay taxes to aid In establish
ing Negro Suffrage and Negro Supremacy
in the South, and who have at the same
time to pay taxes for State, county. city,
township, bridge, poor and other purposes
the expenditure of which inures as much
to the benefit of the bohdholder as to the
men who pay the taxes, see in the future
no relief from their burdens, but a support
of the Democratic policy, which, when
carried out will remove the incubus and
right all the wrongs under which the coun-
try now suffers.
By the drill of party, the mass of the
faction calling itself Radical, do battle to
perpetuate the injustice under which the
tax payers now labor. But there are others,
not now blinded by party, who see and feel
that they have been deceived, and that the
nation desires change, and at no time
within the last six years have the changes
from Radicalism to Democracy been SO
frequent. in this region, as at the present
writing. Men who never before voted
Democratic Ticket, are taught by their suf-
fering, and that of the country, that the
time has come when the Republic demands
their aid, and they will give it by hereafter
voting for equal taxation-the payment of
the bonds in greenbacks, and the other
rightful measures of the Democratic party.

HEALTH OF Hon. WIN. PARR-We are
gratified to be informed, that the health of
Mr.. Parr, Representative to the Legislature
from this county, although far from good.
has improved sufficiently as he believes to
ally at the opening of the session.. Mr.. p.
is a man of unflagging industry and action,
and at times is at fault in putting his eneE-
gies too severely to the test. Exposure
during the trying weather few weeks
since, resulted in an attack of pleurfsy,
followed by indications of typhoid fever,
Being now in fair way to permanent re-
covery, we trust he may suffer no backsct.
His own experience, as well as that of
Others, ought to render it unnecessary to
admonish him that until he is entirely re-
stored, close confinement in the State House
should be avoided.-Ne,odrk Aduocate. 4
