LETTER FROM ST. LOUIS.


Special Correspondence Of the New Orleans crsscentl
ST. LOUIS. Jan. ii, 1868.
For several days past we have been laboring
under q severe attack of " linked GOODNESS, long
drawn out.n The mercury suddenly descended
from sixty TO twenty -four, and the sudden change
was productive of many sore throat and dad
bad code in the head" Last night about dark it
moderated sufficiently 10 admit of slight fall OF
snow, and to-day spasmodc efforts are being made
10 continue the storm. Winter to us is the most
disaRreeabie part of the year, the changes from
warm to excessively cold weather being so sudden
as TO keep US in continual dread and upon the
poor IL is especially severe for while the weather
continues mild they hope and pray that 81 this
winter" it will remain so, and thus fail TO provide
as well as in their power against the coming of
the wintry blast.
Business, ss usual after the holidays, Is excru-
ciatiDgly dull in fact, Is hardly worthy of bei0g
dgDiied by the name OF business; but we live ia
hopes that things will change for the better in the
spring.
On the levee the monotony OF inactivity is only
broken by the occasional arrival and departure of
the ferrybost between this and the Illinois shore.
% The Of ice," in all its grandeur lies at
very doors, and hundreds Of uptown citizens go
down daily 10 gaze UPON IL, and TO be convinced
more than ever that bridge across the river is
absolutely Indispensable.
The following New Orleans guests were regis.
tered at the hotels yesterday: Barnums, q. An.
dIews, Laclede, Thos. w. Shields.
Amusements of late, 'owing to the severe cold,
nave not been so well attended as they would
have been under more favorable circumstances.
Cecile Rush will remain another week at De-
Bars. At this house last night was produced,
for the first time 10 st. Louis, "No Thorough
fare" dramatization, by Geo. +. DeVere, of
Dickens's Christmas story of that name. The at
tendance was large, the scenery appropriate aud
the acting generally unexeeptionable. Mr.. Har-
kins, late leading man at the Varieties, took the
character of "Geo. Vendaes" and won much sp-
plause. At the Varieties Kate Fisher is playing

THE RrcoAsrxuCrrox CoNvExrIox
FoRrY-FIssr DAY.

FRIDAY, Jan. IL, 1868.
Convention met al ii A. NJ. Mr.. Taliaferro pre-
siding; eighty delegates present.
The special committee, appointed to investigate
the detailed report Of the committee on contin-
gent expenses, reported through Mr.. NAPLES,
showing that exorbitant prices had been paid for
stationery and other articles, for instance $40
for a copy Of Webster's Dictionary, usually sold
at sl2 or sll. and other purchases In proportion.
The following resolutions. offered by the commit
-tee embody the results of their Investigations
" Resolved. That the bill OF j. W. Madden, and
those of B. Bloomfield & Co., have never been or
dered by the convention, and ought not TO be
allowed and, ia consideration OF the extortion-
ate charges made. particularly in the bills Of B.
Bloomfield Co.. the convention will not pay for
80 much Of the articles as have been used,
less deduction Of fifty per cent. shall be agreed
upon. .
"Resolred, That the deduction OF s434 be
made from the bill for printing; and that no
further action be taken upon the said bill until the
convention shall have decided whether the phrase
'95 lines In length is to be understood as 95 ems
" Res0tUed That the extravsgant expenses of
the convention contribute greatly towards the
uppopnlarity Of the tax fixed TO meet its neces-
eary expenses, and render its collection more diff
cult than 1t would otherwise have been.

"ARNoLD BERToNEEAU"
Two hundred copies Of the report were ordered
printed.
ORDER OF THE DAY.
The reconsideration of article SO, making the
judiciary an elective one, was resumed.
Judge Cooley spoke ably and at length upon
the subject favoring an appontve judiciary.
Other speakers followed, until finally, on vote
being taken. the article as adopted yesterday
was revoked. Discussion then reverted upon
article 81 of the maj GRITTY report, involving an sp
poiniiye system. Various amendments were
offered, pending discussion upon which the con-
vention adjourned to p. NJ.
Upon reassembling at the hour appointed IL
was found that quorum was lacking, whereupon
the.conyention was declared adjourned TO ii A. N.
