THE DEMOCRATIC STATE CON
VEkTION.


After our report closed yesterday, Mr..
Campbell, of Orleans, offered resolution
providing for the election by country par
ishes and city wards OF members to the
State Central Committee. Referred.
Several other resolutions on the same
subject were offered and referred. Some of
these censured the present State Central
Committee. .
Mr.. Bower, of Jefferson, read a series of
resolutions, branding as false and infamous
the charges of intimidation and fraud made
by the Republican State Central Committee
and affirmed by the Republican newspaper.
Referred.
communication was received and ac-
cepted, from VIM. H. Ellis, secretary of the
Hancock Club, rendering the use of the
rooms of that club, over the Imperial Coffee
house, to the members of the convention
collectively and individually.
Mr. Gubernat + offered a resolution to dis
continue hereafter all representation in the
convention by proxy. Referred.
The convention then adjourned to eleven
o'clock this forenoon.
| At the meeting this morning, the Com
| mittee on Resolutions and the Condition of
the State presented report, which was
adopted.
The committee regret the result of the
Presidential election, but deem it their duty
to accept the decision OF the people. and
carefully to refrain from making any fac.
tious or merely partisan opposition to the
incoming administration.
The condition of our State demands our
first attention, aud its restoration to pros.
perity and good government are, they de-
clare, objects which rise infinitely above all
mere party considerations.
They recommend the maintenance Of the
Democrat party organizations in the State.
Objection is made to the law OF land sales
under the order Of courts, requiring the
sales shall be made in a certain number OF
acres. The objection is to the division into
small lots.
They critictse the lottery schemes, the
printing schemes and railroad schemes OF
the Legislature as devices for wasting money
and increasing taxation.
They regard it as imperatively necessary
that property holders and taxpayers, with
out distinction of party, should combine FOL
their own protection and to save themselye:
from speedy and irretrieTable ruin.
They recommend the formation Of simt
lar associations to that in New Orleans. O
property holders throughout the State.
Areport was made condemnatory of tht
recent address of the Republican State Com
mittee.
A proposition in reference to the char
aoter and numbers of the organization anC
powers of the Democratic State Cummitte,
was discussed at considerable length AM
was under consideration when our repor
closed. Some feeling was exhibited arains
the assumption of paramount authorit,
over the parishes by that committee.
