THAT BIG DIAMOND.

a Californian on His Way East Exhibits
an Immense Diamond of Great Value.
We copy this from the st. Louis Repub-
lean:
DR.. II. p Swein and family. from Santa
Cruz, California, was in the city yesterday,
and left for the East on the Vandalia road.
The doctor had in his possession a large
diamond, supposed to be OF the first water,
which be claims TO be worth over SO, 0OO,O 600.
IT was found by his boy at the mouth of
Zulcb in Santa Cruz county, over six years
ago. The specimen is an irTegulauly round
ed pebble, about the size of a large hOrse-
chestnut, covered with a thin, brownish,
Opaque crust, and the weight is three and a
half ounces. Two or three facets made by
grinding of the outside coat exhibit bril-
liant transparency which to the unprofes-
aiOnal eye looked like rock crystal 1t has
been examined in San Francisco, where an
offer Of $4,000 was made to the owner. Mr..
L. b. Hopkins compared it with the other
diamonds, and pronounced it the regular
Simon pure stuff. The doctor goes to Bos-
tor to have it tested by the most skilful
lapidaries of that city. Explorations have
since been made i'll the canyon whore the
specimen was discovered, but the search
has not been rewarded with success.

Discussing the Louisville Convention.

We reproduce the subjoined special to
the Cincinnati Gazette:
Advices from the Southern States, re-
ceived by the National Campaign Com
mittee and prominent Republicans in this
city, indicate that the strength of the
movement for a straight-Out independent
Democratic ticket is rapidly increasing, and
likely to have very decided effect upon
the future of the campaign in that portion
of the country. The Republican success in
North Carolina, and the certainty that
O'COnor or some other equally we'll known
and reliable Democrat will receive the NOM
nation at Louisville, have given an unex-
pected impetus to the effort which at Balti-
more was pronounced fOOlhardly, and which
is now certain to become one of the most
prOmineuU elements in the canvass. The
Democratic organization is most complete
and effective in Georgia, but in Virginia and
North Carolina a straight ticket will com
mand substantial support. The movement
has also taken root in this District, and a
full delegation will be sent to Louisville.

We are no alarmists, but personal Obser-
walton and information gained from plan
ters in various portions of the parish force
upon us the conviction that the cotton crop
of Caddo parish, at least, was never in
more depl0Table condition. Mr.. j. A.
McRady, gentleman Of fine judgment,
and who has kept an accurate diary for
nearly thirty years informed us that there
has never been "A more injurious drOuth in
that time, except in 1860, and in that year,
though there was scarcely any corn made
IN the parish, the rains came in time to save
the cotton crop from utter ruin. Now the
corn crop is better than an average, while
the prospects are that there will be but lit
tie, if any, more cotton made than what
will be gathered from the bolls already
nearly grown. In short, it is the opinion of
she best informed planters in the parish
that even under the most favorable cIrcum-
stances from this out, there will not be
moro than two bales to the hand made on
the hills, or say, a bale to seven or eight
acres.
This is a very gloomy picture. And it is
more especially so, when it Is taken into
account that there is not one planter in
twenty but is behind with bis merchant
Under these circumstances, it would be the
part of wisdom for all classes Of our people
to exercise the most rigid economy, and tor
our merchants to be cautious in their pur-
ghaEeS.

grown are drying up and falling off. There
