WILLIAM II. GREEN,
Secretary Committee on Conference.
= After some discussion the following reso-
luton was offered by F. K. Hyde, Of the
tenth ward, and unanimously adopted.
ReSoloed, That the report Of the commit
tee on conference be received, and further
time granted, and that the committee be in
structed to reply to the committee of con-
ference of the Republican Parish Conyen-
tion that this convention can accept of no
conditions as to its action upon State and
national matters as precedent to confer
ence, having been convened solely for the
purpose of making parochial and municipal
nominations, and having asked confer
ence upon those matters alone, and that
this COZ. .vention simply request an answer
to their request for conference, affirmative
or negative, upon a basis Of equal iDdepen-
dence and dignity. And as a seeming con
fict between the two communications, sent
by them to the Hon. J. A. RaynaI, we re
quest that convention to indicate which
Communication they desire US to act upon.
After some discussion the convention ad-
journed till II N. to-day.

SENATOR kELLoGG'S GREAT SPEECH
TIE AUDIENCE sPELL-BoUND
OTHER ELOQUENT ADDRESSES
Especial to the New Orleans Republican.
DoNALDsoNv1LLE, October IS, 1872.


Senator Kellogg, Hon. c. B. Darrall
and others of Senator KelIogg's party ar
rived here this morning by the gallant little
steamer Frazer. The grand mass meeting
| advertised at this point for to-day exceeded
the most sanguine expectations of our Re-
publican friends. 1t was very largely at
tended by the white citizens of Ascension
parish, who gave Mr.. Kellogg an attentive
hearing, and now unite in proclaiming his
speech to have been not only mastery eff
fort of brilliant oratory, but strong and con-
elusive in support Of Republican principles.
The meeting was called to order by Hon.
Pierre Landry, who nominated Judge Nor
ris Marks as president. The judge stated
that time forbade his making any other re-
marks than simply to introduce our
next Governor, Hon. William Pitt Kellogg,
as the first speaker. For nearly three hours
Senator Kellogg held the audience spell
bound. His ready flow of language, terse
and vigorous, especially in that which re-
lated to State affairs, made quiet and atten-
tive listeners and hosts of new converts.
Congressman Darrall spoke at some
length in support of the national ticket, then
upon necessary internal improvements and,
more especially, relative to the sugar inter
ests of the State. The campaign party unite
the opinion that Mr.. Darralrs speech at
this place is the best that he has made.
Hon. Charles w. Lowell followed for
nearly an hour, until nightfall set in, only
to find the audience 10th to leave listening
to his soul-stirring remarks.
The meeting was in all respects great
success, not only in point of numbers, but
in the favorable impression it has created.
Judge Marks entertained Senator Kellogg
and his friends at quite grand banquet, at
which his amiable and accomplished wife
presided in the absence of the judge, who
was still detained at the meeting
Senator Kellogg's party leave here to-
night for Napoleonville, where large
meeting will oe held tomorrow.

the other insurance companies will also sub
scribe, and that their action is deferred
few days, waiting a meeting of their re-
spective boards Of directors 1t is TO be
hoped that they may act during the present
week.
Our other corporations are also acting,
and the committee have the subscriptions
of the
New Orleans Gas COMPANY. SO Goo GOO

Our city railroad companies will probably
act this week, as also the life insurance
companies and agencies. There is a strong
intent expressed by them to aid in this en-
terprise, and they can not do anything more
popular than to give that aid.
The committee, in conclusion, desire to
repeat their formerly expressed convictions
of confidence -in these subscriptions. The
securities offered are to be created by the
building of the road, no money to be paid
until they are all taken. The completion
of the subscriptions makes the building of
road certain.
The terms of payment are easily made in
installments of say ten per cent month,
running through ten months.
The benefit to our city will be worth all
we pay, and our Wisest men say the COM
pletion of the road will make the securities
worth double the subscription price.
Already one of the shrewdest of New
York capitalists has written to know who
of our people are taking these securities,
intimating that if our best men are doing
so these securities will be invaluable as an
investment. How can it be otherwise with
a first class road completed to Houston, the
centre of vast netway of railroads, in the
trans-Mississippi portion of our country.
Not only will the road pay eight
per cent interest on its first and second
mortgage bonds, which are together only
$25, 900 a mile, but on it's income bonds also.
But all this can be set aside. We want the
road, and there can never be a better
opportunity to aid in building it. 1t is
duty for every one, who can, to give that
aid. The committee again ask to have sub
scriptions made promptly, and have the
work commenced at once.
Respectfully,
SAM. H. KENNEDY,
Chairman of Committee.

gence of most disastrous floods in the
southern part Of British India. The town

has suffered terribly, and many of the ine
habitants have been drowned. The mum
Der of lives lost is given at one thousand.
Fifteen thousand inhabitants Of the town
have lost everything they possessed, the
water having washed away their houses
and left them in a perfectly destitute
condition.
During a hurricane, which extended
for miles along the eastern shores of the
Indian Ocean, the waters rose to an i'm

table land which forms the coast bound

dating the country for miles into the in.

by the food; many houses were swept
entirely away, and upward of one thous-
and Of the unfortunate inhabitants we're
drowned. At the first approach of the
sea large numbers of persons fed f.om
the town in prccipitate haste, aud sought
refuge in the mountainous dist lets to the
south.
When the hurricane abated and the
food receded, the country bordering on
the sea coast was found to be strewn with
the bodies of men and animals, mingled
with the wrecks ofdwellings The amount
of damage occasioned by the flood is be-
yond estimation Over twelve thousand
Of the Inhabitants Of Vellore are house
less, and arc now living in rude and i'm
proyised dwellings until better means
Of shelter is obtainable. Three thousand
unfortunate families are stated to be ut
terly destitute, every portion of their eff
fects having been swept away by the
Voraeious flood Thousands of acres OF
crops which before the present calamity
were in thriving condition are totally
ruined, and the prospects Of the sufferers
with regard to means "Reminiscences are at
present Of a most discouraging character.

We arc informed that the people along
the line of the Memphis and Knoxville
Railroad, near McNairy Station are be
ginning to open their eyes to the impor>
lance of this road, and are willing and
ready to subscribe literally to the same.
The books of the road are now open to
subscriptions, and the company will re
ceiVe subscriptions consisting in cross
ties, contracts for grading, bridges, build
ing &c, and if the people at and near
McNairy station desire the road to be
located at that place, they will have to
Subscribe, and that literally, as the peo-
along the Piney route have subscribed to
the utmost of their abil' ty. Let the people
pie at McNairy station hold meeting,
get up grand barbecue, and the com
pany no doubt viii have speakers there
to give the desired information asked for
by several from that vicinity. This road
will be built; no survery east Of this place
has been made, and as the subscriptions
will guide the compass why not the
chances of McNairy station be as good as
those of other competing points Let us
hear from the station.

They Can't Do It.

Ahere are few country papers in the
State that are cndeaYoring to read out of
the party every Democrat who endorses
the nominations Of Greeley and Brown.
II they should accomplish their purpose
their chances for ever becoming mem>
hers of an elective body would be slim
indeed. Gentlemen should remember
that Democrats who voted for Senter are
Democrats yet: and men Of sense will
remember that Democrats who cast votes
for Greeley and Brown did what was ex-
actly right under the circumstances.
Hardeman county is to-day the banner
Democratic county Of the State-having
$500 clear minority out of total vote of
4,3OO, and she will cast her vote for
Greeley and Brown-no matter what
Belmonte and his fellow-eommittee. men
may do. he reason, and the only one
why she will do so is this:-Her citizens
are emphatically intelligent and law,
abiding-always ready and willing to
make the best of bad bargain, and they
feel and know that to vote for Greeley
and Brown is the only way to defeat
Grant. They recognize the fact that at
this time there is no earthly hope of
electiug Democratic president, and
their good sense on this point If not re-
coguized now, will be appreciated before
the frst day of next December. Gentle
men, you may try to read us out of the
party but you can't do it, and the wild
oats you are now sowing will but entan~
gle your own paths in the future. If
you are 50 stiff aud stubborn that you
