LIBERAL STATE CONVENTION.

The delegates assembled at the Acad-
envy of Music, on Monday the 9Th inst,
and organized by choosing A. S. Her
ron, of Baton Rouge, temporary chair
man, and WV. Pugh, of Assumption
parish, permanent president.
a resolution was offered and adopted
appointing a committee of fifteen to
confer with the Democratic State Cen
trail Committee, Of the Reform party,
and the State Central Committee of the
Republican party, of which HI Camp
bell is president, as follows:
First District-Ehingham Lawrence
of Plaquemines, Thos. G. Davidson of
Livingston, and Patrick Swan of the
Seventh Ward of Orleans.
Second District-E. A. Burke of the
Second Ward of Orleans, Louis Bush of
Lafourche, r. l.. Preston Of the Twelfth
Ward of Orleans.
Third Dlstrict-Joseph a. Breaux of
Iberia, Thos. j Foster. of st. Mary, and
f. w. Robertson Of East Baton Rouge.
Fourth District Louis TeXada of
Rapides, A. II. Leonard of Caddo, and
J. z. Harris of Point Coupec.
Fifth District. G. Egan Of Clai-
borne, w. w. Farmer of Ouachita, and
J. T.. Lewis of Richland.
The address was directed to the DEM
ocratic Committee, apparently ignoring
the Reform party, whereupon the Com
inittee adopted the following rules:
First. That 4 coalition having been
already formed between the Democrats
and Rcformcrs, the Democratic Com
1,iffna could NOT cnp with any, nfbor
organization except conformity with the
Reform Committee, and that the DEM
ocratic Committee meet the Liberal
Republican Committee, plainly stating
this fact, and if conference is rejected
on these terms, further negotiations
cannot be entertained.
Second. That all propositions be sub
mitted in writing, to prevent lnisun-
Outstanding or Misrepresentation here
after.
Upon these terms the committee re-
tired to meet the committee of the Lib
cra1 Republican organization.
Shortly after the Democrats Joined
the Liberal Republican Committee, the
meeting was reinforced by the Reform
Committee, under escort, which may
safely be taken as an acceptance OF the
first point contcnded for.
The conference committee thus Or
,ganizcd, their deliberations We're neccs-
sarily secret, and as to what TRANSFERRED
nothing can be positively known.
After the Democrats ana Rcformers
had left, the Pinchback Committee
united in conference with the commit
tee from the Liberal Republican Con-
Vention.
On tho 18th, the Liberal Committee
asked for further time.
1t is impossible to predict the conclu-
sion, but we believe that an agreement
would be considered Il political miracle.

The death of Jaurcz, President of
Mexico, announced some days since in
dispatches, is an event of moment to
that disturbed and unfortunate country.
He alone Of all it's rulers, seems to have
had {, natural capacity for the situation,
and u tirmness that in (: measure pro
served peace and order. AS Il nation,
Mexico is absolutely without eohcrcucc.
The States are isoiatcd-have no SYM
pathy with each othcr-and but little
communication. The great purpose of
Jaurcz was to restore the rule of law, by
Il system of improvements that would
bind all parts i'll close alliance, and
make each feel the absolute necessity
of union. He lived in that hope and
died without its accomplishments. With
II bankrupt treasury and turbulent and
ignorant people, there is but little to
expect but in the firm hand of an out
side protectoratc. When the time
comes, this country will DO forced to
do for Mexico what it cannot do for
itself. The rein OF ruin has run long

Susan Is. Anthony, angelic spinster,
is at great pains to advertise the fact
that she docs not like Horace Greeley.
1t is one of the peculiarities of Susan's
long and cventful life that she never
liked any man, aud we guess Horace
Greeley can stand it as long as she can.

The recent purchase by the govern
ment, at the expense OFFS 900, of three
trunks of rebel rubbish, was done in
the interest of the Radical party which
wishes to revive the animositics and
hatreds Of the war. These rebels doc
unents, pretended or real, are now be-
ing overhauled by Grants Secretaries
and prepared for publication during
the campaign. The hope that they
can be used with political effect is one
of the vanities of the world. The peo-
pie arc not prepared to reopen the
bitter feeling produced by the war,
and the party that attempts it will dis
cover their mistake. These precious doe
uments were not purchased until after
Greeley was nominated, and the pur-
chase was made in the remote hope
that something might turn up in them
to damage his chance Of election. This
not only shows to what mean shifts the
GRANTEES will resort to defeat MI.
Greeley; but proves how hard they
are put to it to carry on their cam
paign. Let them go ahead with these
paper bullets, they will alone be the
sufferers, for like the famed booma-
rang of the Australians, they will come
back and hit those who discharge

UNION AND FRATERNITY.

The union of the Democracy with
the Liberal Republicans at Cincinnati
and Baltimore, brings the North ana
South nearer together in brotherly SEN
timent than they have been since they
fought for freedom under the eyes of
Washington. History furnishes no
parallel to it. A great party founded
by the fathers of the Republic; identi-
fed with, irnot the originator, of all the
measures which have given the country
wealth and power at home and fame
and standing abroad; strong in its Or
ganization; numbering it's hosts by
millions; formidable in its leadership;
embracing the wisest statesmen and
most eloquent orators in the land; per-
feet in all its appointments to dare any
enterprise or meet any issue as if by
an inspiration throws off the appliances
of war, and for the sake of peace the
past is forgotten. The hands of lifelong
foes are clasped, the dangers ahead are
mutually admitted, and with frank
ness worthy of all praise they resolve
that as brothers their fathers made the
Constitution and as brothers they will
perpetuate it. --.r..
1t was q peace Offering to the country
"a great heart-throb for kinder feelings
and a better government. 1t was the
peoples work, and will be approved
by the largest popular vote ever given
for any measure in our politics. Pros
perity will follow; burdens will be
lightened; supernumary offices abolish
ed, and the administration of public
business restricted within the limits of
our fundamental law-the Constitution.
The Republican party had served it's
mission and fallen into the hands of ig-
norant and unprincipled men an En-
pire was looming up; titled nobility
tickled the vanity of Grant and num-
berIess rings, to the disgust and alarm
of all the good, true and intelligent men
who assisted him four years ago to his
present high place. And SO great has
the disaffection become that not Il day
passes that we do not hear of dis
tinguished accessions. On The Goth of
July, Charles Sumner, the champion, if
not the apostle of the colored man, not
only proclaimed his support of Greeley,
but advises all colored men to vote for
him.
Now, colored men, when the wise
men of your party-Grceley, Trumbull,
Chase, Brown and all the others of its
founders, the men who broke your
shackles and gave you freedom-have
quit the old organization like the mar
liner quits sinking ship, what does it
behoove you to do? Can you afford to
put yourself in antagonism to a move
ment likely to enlist thirty out Of thirty
six States in its advancement? Can
you any longer defy public wrath and
retain among you the rapacious carpet
baggers who have robbed you, us, and
the State alike? Show us u carpet
Dagger and we will show you an officer;
show us the officer and we will show
you the plunderer. 1t is your duty to
follow Greeley and Summers advice
join the party of deliverance; cut loose
from thieves; cultivate amicable rcla-
tions with men who give you al OPP
portunity to earn your bread-men
who have an interest in the enactment
of good and wholesome laws, and whose
whole lives are guaranty of their
honesty and good intentions.

1t is stated that Father Hyacinthe's marriage
Is nc; An exceptional one amoEg French priests,
and that in the diocese of Paris, alone, the
average number Of priests who marry il from
twenty TO thirty in the year. The Paris Journa,
says that when the Able Michaud announced
TO the archbishop his intention to take wife he
met with no opposition. Ali that was said was.
Marry since you must, but make no noise

Il strong prejudice against clergymen who
break their vows OF ceiibacy, and there is some
legal hi1drance TO their getting married. In a
case recently tried in France, but not by one of
the higher tribunals. the court ruled that s.s
marriage with the church precludes civil natri-
mony." This ruling would not probably hold
good in the superior courts, but the fact that il
was made serves 70 show that there is a degree

rank from hastily entering into the marriage
