This report was adopted with the ex-
ception of the first resolution, which was
considered superfuous, inasmuch as when
a sufficient number Of shareholders shall
have subscribed to the proposed pro-
gramme, the board will. Of necessity, put
it in force. It will be seen that con-
solidation with the New Orleans National
Bank is suggested, and if this project be
consummated, the new institution will
certainly be ore Of the best in the city.

PRECINCT MEETINGS.

The suggestion of Saturdays
meeting in reference to represen-
tation in the Parish Convention
to be held on the Goth proximo, is
undoubtedly a very good one
There can be no fairer plan than
that Of giving to each precinct a
vote in the Convention proper
toned to the votes cast, by it at
the last election. This plan had
to be adopted as to precincts, in
stead of wards, because the vote
of the parish in 1865, the last cleo
ton, was polled by precincts and
not Upwards, some precincts i'll
Guiding two wards. Thus, there
were then eleven wards in the
parish, and only eight precincts.
We append a table giving the
vote of the several precints in
1865, together with the number
of delegates each precint will bel
entitled to in the Convention, ac-
cording to the basis agreed upon
by the meeting last Saturday:

CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTION.

Prominent gentlemen from near
ly every parish in this Congress
sional District have been in Mon
roe during the past two weeks. In
a general interchange of views
respecting the time and place for
holding the Democratic Conven-
ton for this Congressional Dis
trict, it has been ascertained that
Monroe, as the place for holding
said Convention, meets with gen
eral favor, on account of it's aces
sible and central location, and
that Wednesday, the 21st day OF
September, is approved as a suit
able day for the assembling OF the
Convention. This arrangement,
we presume, will be generally sat
isfactory,. and we, therefore, re-
quest our exchanges in the District
to give the matter publication III
their columns.

Hon. G. W. McCranie.

The editor of the Union Record
who has recently travelled through
some of the western parishes,
makes the following comment III
his paper Of the 9th instant:
The meeting at Townsville last
week endorsed the Hon. u. W..
McCranie, and recommended his
denomination for Congress. AS
far as we could learn in the Par
ishes of Claiborne, Bienville and
Jackson this sentiment is uni
versal.
The Sparta Times has the fol-
lowing:
Public meetings have been held
in several parishes declaring IN
favor OF the reelection OF Capt. q.
w. McCranie to Congress from
this district, it being confidently
believed that his political. disablll-
ties will soon be removed.
The fidelity with which Capt. NJ
has labOred to secure our rights III
Congress has well merited this eX-
preston OF popular favor.
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1870-07-16

and that the delegates be elected
by, the several meetings instead
Of being appointed. Voters viii
see by their registration certifit-.
Gates at what precinct they voted
and of co,1rse will attend the meet
ing only in that precinct. IT the
delegates chosen will all attend
the Parish Convention in person,
there cannot be any possible
grounds for objection to the ar
rangement which has been agreed
upon.

SATURDAYS. MEETING.

The political enemies of the
people were doubtless surprised
and terror-struck at the large and
respectable meeting held In Mon
roe, on Saturday last, for the pur-
pose of inaugurating the cam
paign in this parish against the
Radical party. No further effort
than the mere published call for
the meeting, had been made to
gather the people together, and
yet there was q well-flled house
of intelligent men and q NANTES
tation of earnestness and enthusi-
assn that reminded one of for
mer days and bespoke determina-
ton and life in the men OF old
|'Ouachita. Perfect harmony and
unaninlity prevailed, SO clear did
it appear. that the, issues Of the
day could bear but one interpre-,
ton and that there is but one
avenue of escape from the dan
gers. threatening the common
wealth. The resolutions adopted
seem to have been framed with a
view to the practical questions be-
fore the country, and though firm,
manifest Notwithstanding a libe-
raj regard for the int gritty and
opinions Of those who may be dis
posed to dissent in part from the
)policy therein enunciated. We
can but hope that this concilia-
tory course will reconcile all dis
cordance of, views among men OF
conservative feelings, especially
when it is proposed, as was done
on Saturday, to turn upon all dis
honest officials, Of every party,
the virtuous indignation Of the.
people. Upon such policy, coup
led with the avowal of q full re-
eognition of: the rights acquire d
by. the celored people, it is prac-
teal and indeed essential for the
conservative element to unite
Thus united, defeat is impossible.
Further comment is rendered i'm
practicable, owing to the pressure
on our columns: We thank the
meeting for its appreciation of Mr..
McCranie's course; and also Capt.
4 Kidd for his fattering remarks to
the same effect.
