New Orleans, Aug. 13.-The Pinch
back Republican Convention had n
stormy session last evening, General
Hugh Campbell made speech tavor.
ing alliance with the Liberals. and en-
dorsing Greeley, saying ii the motion
failed he would withdraw. The pro-
position to fuse with the Liberals, WAS
lost by vote of lo9 to 81, when Camp.
bell, tie President of the Convention
with 81 members Withdrew. Col. q.
w. Carter also declared for Greeley.
Pinchback declared that Republican
government in this State could only
be had under the leadership of Grant.

Now it seems to us that nothing
could possibly be fairer or more liber
al than this ul;imatum, and the re-
lection OF it by the Liberal Convention
forces us to the unwilling conviction,
that their name would have better be-
fitted the Pinchbackers. 1t will be
recollected, that we published. some
editorials from the New Orleans Re.
publican in this connection with some
remarks of our own, aud We can but
reiterate the opinion, that if defeat is
before the Liberal party, they have
themselves to blame in great measure
for the misfortune.

The Rapides Collegiate Insti-
tute..

Sometime since We called attention
in our paper 10 the advertisement OF
MessrS BringhurSt aud Hunter, the
principals OF the Rapides Collegiate
Institute. We again remind the pub
lie of this, and other Parishes in the
State, THAI they will, as their notice
proclaims, open the portals of their In
stitution OH the First Monday of Sep
tember next. We are informed that a
large number of pupils are already en-
gagged TO them and that their prospects
for full school are exceeding en-
c0uraging. From the character of the
gentlemen who are at the head of the
enterprise, their well-known ability
and their qualifications for the posi-
tiuns of the nature chosen by them,
we teei sure that a first-claSs Academy
is destined to spring mp in our mid {.
which viii, to this pOrtiOi of LnlIsi-
ANA, more than supply the place Of the
State Seminary, on account of its sn-
pe;ior loratinn, cheapneSs OF terms.
&C., aud fila want which ~ very gen
orally felt.
The circulars of the Institute have
been widely disseminated; every pro
vision has been made by the energetic
principals to establish a thorough
school of Education for yound men and
boys; the advantages they offer ar.
not fictitious. Therefore, we hope the
State will sustain them by its most
generous patronage in the laudablt en-
terprisp which they have inaugumttd

ST. VALENTINES DAY-In two weeks will
be st. Valentine day. We are reminded of
this by noticing in the windows Of some of our
bookstores the displays of valentines, comic
and sentimental. Some people believe that
St. Valentine was myth Of the same category
as Santa Claus but of him We can assure
them that he had history, and it is briefly
this: According to some ecclesiastical writer's,
he was bishop, by others presbyter, who
was beheaded at Rome in the reign Of the Em-
peror Claudius "A. d. 27O) Wleatleigh says
that St. Valentine ''was a man Of most admir-
able parts, and so famous for his love and char
ity that the custom of choosing valentines upon
his festival took its rise from thence Others
derived the custom from birds supposed to Sc
lect their mates on this day; others, again,
from practice prevalent in ancient Rome at
the festival of the Lupercais, held during the
month Of February, when, among other cere,
monies, the names of young women were placed
in box, from which they were taken by young
men according as chance directed There are
frequent references to st. Valentines Day in
Shakespeare. In this country the day is OBJ
served only by sending ornamental, illustrative
or comic missives to friends and foes alike.
The comic kind are frequently sent with view
to exasperate or wound the feelings of enemies.
1t is custom to be reprehended, and should
not be practiced.

AS TO Coop BEDs.-

On, bed, bed, dellclOus bed,
a heaven on earth for the weary head,
writes Hood, and so it is, under certain circunl-
stances; but there are beds and beds. Consid
eriug that about third Of our lives is passed
in them, they deserve much more attention
than they get. France has long been in
advance of the rest of the civilized
world in this respect, having really paid as
careful attention to excellence in this respect as
to that in cookery. The grand secret of the
superiority of French bedding is to be found
not merely in the existence of good springs and
we'll filled mattresses, but in the fact that these
mattresses are pulled and remade annually
This is the reason why beds in other countries
are generally such mockcry of the French
beds which they are intended to initiate. French
houses usually have court yard bcliud, in
which carpets are beaten aud various other do
mestic business is transacted, and here in fine
weather may be seen the practice of mattress
stuffing. An old mattress on which heavy bodies
have lain for series of years, becomes no
matter how we'll filled with horse hair, nearly as
springy as street car cushions. If you want
comfortable bed here is the uufailiug receipt
Firstly, very good springs, secondly, thick
hair mattress over them; thirdly, thick wool
mattress over that Both mattresses should be
rrnade every two years.

WINTER IN CHEYENNE.-The Cheyenne
Leader of January oath says The weather
has been so severe at Sherman within the past
three days that the men employed to clear the
road could not be kept at their work more than
few minutes at a time. Neither money,
threats, persuasion nor revolvers would avail to
keep them out The wind blows hurricane
all the time, and the thermometer rangesa from
10 to 20 degrees below zero. If the wind
would subside it is the opinion of railroad men
that the road would be opened in twenty-iour
hours At Cheyenne on Tuesday afternoon
the wind suddenly rose to a tempest The air
was deusey filled with snow, which whirled
and twisted 10 all directions So dense was the
mass of snow fakes in the air, and so powerful
and irresistible the wind that one could not see

the streets were sheltered by continuous row

who happened to be out lost their way within
half block of their owD houses, one lady be-
coming bewildercd when almost inside her own
door yard The children at the public schools
had to be taken to their homes, as it would
have been utterly impossible for them to have
made their way alone through the storm. This
terrible storm continued until after midnight.
The morning was one Of the coolest ever eXpe-
rieuced in the city, the mercury indicating

SLIGHTLY EGoTsTICAL.-T Louisville
Courier-Journal INDUCES in little bombast re-
specting the visit of the Grand Duke to Louis
vile. The Journal is satisfied that the visit OF
the Grand Duke is an opportunity which may
never occur again to justify to the world the
ancient reputation of Kentuckiaps for generous
hospitality and courteous attention to guests.
The Duke is credited with having a fondness
for waltzing with pretty girls; but, says the
Journal he has never seen as beautiful girls as
will be at the Gait House tomorrow night;
many deep impression will be made upon his
heart But therein lies his safety. There will
be so many surprisingly lovely creatures that
he will no sooner become smltten with one than
another entrancing vision will rise before him
and distract his thoughts and divide his admi-
ration. The Gretna Green of Indiana is not
far off-only just across the river, and the ferry
boats make frequent trips but our ladies are
too loyal to falter in their faith, and they are
too sensible not to find in our gallant youths
quite as many good and lovable qualities as
snv prince can boast Of So Councillor Machiu
need not have the least fear for his charge.
His heart will be fairly riddled with glances of
sunny eyes, but he will get bravely over 1t.
The only lasting effect will be to make him,re-
gret that the capital of Russia is not located at
the falls of the Ohio.
