yentiOn.
Especial to the Bulletin.l

Monroe, LA, Aug. 1.-The Ce1achita
Democratic Parish Convention met to-day
amid greater enthusiasm and good feeling than
has characterized its assembling for many
years. Col Charles W. Philips was called to
the char, and made stirring and patriotic
address, counseling anity of action and more
perfect organization TO render success at the
polls certain.
Gov. McEnery, upon a cordial invita-
ton, addressed the Convention. and made one
of his best efforts, awakening patriotic emo
tons in the hearts of the most lukewarm The
people of 0uachita are fully aroused as to the
importance of the canvass, and realize the
magnitude of the issues involved.
The White League, while not political, so
far as the organization is concerned will act
in perfect accord with the Democratic party,
AMI the people of your city may rest assured
there will be no division in this part of the
State. ARTILLERY.

To the Editor Of the N. U. Bulletin:
According to promise, few lines which nigh
prove interesting to your mercantile friends.
Ouachlta River has gone down to its lowest linn
its within the last two weeks, closing up naviya-
ton completely except for the lghtest draught
steamers
The Rockrow, Monroe, Fenner and Taylor's bars,
have never in SO short time offered such OBJ
structons to navition; and two Of our packets
had to store their cargo this week, not being able
to pass.
Nevertheless we are fortunate in having the
energetic Capt. J W. Blanks, who, apprecia-
ting our low water isolation made it his business
to procure by charter the exceedingly light
draught steamer W. G. Flanders, and has already
commenced the transportation OF freights from
Taylots bar to Ouachlta City, where he expects
to give us two trips weekly, carrying sll frelghts
brought by Blanks line from your city,
Tins enterprise of Capt. Blanks is duly appre-
ciated and he will be welcomed in the iiveliest
NAM e. with "wel done, faithful servant: You
We'll deserve the universal gratitude of the whole
community, and your little steamer W. C. Elan

omew and Ouachita River will turn out fair r.

our late terrible owe flow had nearly discouraged
are now cheering mp and express themselves as
quite satisfied with their prospect. The corn
crop is almost failure, and will amount to moth
ing: in consequence their whole energies are
directed to the cotton crop.
The general apprehe .ision concerning the
caterpillar worms has not yet proven to b. a
reality, though many planters assert having seen
them about their fields. l hope they will only be

the Hibernia Associations was, if anything,
larger than on the day of opening, a week
previous, and the Fair Grounds presented an
appearance such as it has seldom done.

two between American Girl and Lady Johnson,
the one being the hurdle n.ce between the two
postponed from the opening day, and the
other match race OF one mile, for purse OF
$50
Lady johnson won them both, leading l.,
the first race over the hurdles, and under the
string. about four lengths Time, 2:O6 In
the second race the time was 2;O2.
