officer was sent on board to de;aln her on legal pro-

the pull was most unexpected. At the close Of the

THE CONVENTION.

The Republican State Convention, now
in session in this city, careful of the in
terests of the people, is proceeding de-
liberately and slowly. The investigation
Of the contested election cases took much
time, but the convention was fully organ
lied last night There was quite a friend
ly but interesting ballot for President of
the convention, the friends of Governor
Warmoth and Lieutenant Governor Dunn
participating in the contest. The members
deemed it right and courteous not to re-
move the latter from the chair he was
temporarily occupying, and considered
Governor Warmoth's eloquence, energy
and ability too valuable on the floor to be
dispensed with, and when Lieutenant
Governor Dunn was declared elected, his
competitor gracefully and promptly asked
the convention to make the election unan-
imous. The best feeling prevailed among
all parties, and determination was
evinced to allow no personal rivalry for
nominations and honors to stand in the
way of a brilliant victory for the Repub-
ican cause in November next. The con-
vention will complete its work to-day.

DEATH OF MAJOR CROMIE.

Major James Cromie, Of Natchitoches,
a delegate to the Republican State Con-
vention, now in session in this city, died
yesterday. He was the proprietor of the
Red River Ners, and one of the leading
citizens Of that part Of the State. At
the breaking out of the late war he entered
the Federal army, and served with great
credit in most of the battles fought by
the army of the Potomac. AtChancellors-
Vile he was severely wounded. taken
prisoner and sent to Libby Prison, where
he remained many months. On being
exchanged he rejoined his regiment, and
continued at his post till the final sur
render, when he resigned and commenced
planting up Red River He early identi-
fed himself with the great work of recon-
struction in the South, and has been a
firm and consistent supporter of the State
and Federal governments.
He was true friend, brave soldier.
and an honest man.

OUR FRENCH sYMPATHIzERs.

The Bee, in the course of lament for
the terrible trouncing that has just been
given the French, says:
Native and naturalized Americans of New
Orleans expressed to us yesterday their
sincere sympathy with France, remarking
they felt as much Inundated as when the
Confederate arms met with a reverse in the
late war.
Of course, they felt Inundated. But
we were in better company than our con-
temporary was, for we found those who
were as jubilant over Napoleons discom-
future as they were over the fall Of Vicks-
burg and the surrender Of Lee. The
"native and naturalized Americans are
not likely to forget those who were their
foes in Europe when the dark days were
upon us here.

1t is hardly possible that the bitterest
enemy of the Bonaparte, who has ruled
France SO successfully for the last twenty
years, will be inclined to deny that he is a
man of parts, even though he Should be de-
feated in his present struggle with King
William of Prussia, and compelled to de-
part for parts unknown. But las Bona
parte has never yet been knows to depart
in this way, it would be unfair 20 suppose
this will be any part of the present Empe-
rors conduct. Whatever fortune awaits
him, he will, no doubt, face it: manfully,
though the glittering prize he has clutched
80 long, may finally pass from his grasp;
and in this respect he would not be unlike
those, who. failing to purchase tickets in
the Louisiana State Lottery allOw.over four
hundred glittering prizes to pass beyond
their reach. Napoleon has taken the
chances of war-to win; and those who
would win in the Louisiana State Lottery
must buy tickets and take their chances of
fortune. The chances to win here are
good, if we are to judge from the past.
Many persons are known to have made
themselves comfortable for life by simply
risking a few dollars in this famous. lottery.
