DenAOcrOfic Convention.

1t il now foregone conclusion that n
Convention of the Democratic party will be
held in this city Oh the 22nd of November
next. No one who has observed the eur
rent of events for the past month will
doubt this fact for moment.
SO unInista able is the sentiment OF the
people and so pronounced ID their demand
for Convention that the state Central
Committee Ii unwilling to hold out any
longer against desire so universally eX-
pressed by Democrats throughout the State.
For this reason it will rcassemble on the
2lst instant, as will DO seen by the official
notice at the head of our columns. Many OF
tho members who at the last meeting voted
against the calling of II Convention, will
now give tho movement their support. We
arc rejoiced at this action. \ call en,anat.
ing from II Central Committee will quiet all
opposition that has been made by II few OF
the country papers, and will secure their
co operation and favor III future. This will
give us harmony and with it strength-ele-
fients Indispensable to success.
Several parishes have selected delegat es
already. Let the others that have begun
go on with the work without awaiting the
action of the Committee, because we con-
slider there is now doubt of the final
result. a convention will be called by it
and after that there will DO but little time
left to elect the delegates from the parishes.
So let the work go on withok eltsssi, ption.

The Races.

AT Friars Point, Mississippi, rs at other
places i'll that State, the whites and blacks
have been brought into conflict. The fol-
lowing report made by Gen. Chalmers, a
discreet onfederate cavalry general, is, no
doNbt,a reliable statement of the facts In
the case:
FRIAR's POINT, Oct. p.-On the Goth of
December we discovered that Sheriff Brow
had been speaking to the negroes and ad.
wishing them to prepare for fight and that
he had secretly brought in nmmu nitiou
away. and he refused. then sent out to
the white men to prepare themselves. On
Saturday night, October 2, Coy. Alcorn
swindled tho State out of S4735.
Brown sent out for his men to come in
armed on Tuesday, and said he would as
sault Alcorn. I sent forthe whites to come
early. About IL o'clock 800 armed negroes
came to the edge of the town. I ordered
them to dispense. and gave them ten min
utes to get out of town. They fell back Il
forcements. After waiting several hours,
and sending three repeated orders to dis
perse. we marched on them. They were
posted in the woods, ut the mouth ola lane
They fired all their guns before we got in
range of them, and then fled like rabbits
into the woods and canebrakes
We marched from point to point iu the
fled on our approach. We were bushwhacke d
twice, and had one man mortally wounded
since dead, and one slightly. We killed two
negroes and wounded five that we caught in
Sheriff Brown and Smith fled the county.
The negroes swear they will kill them if they
return, and the whites have warrants for
their arrest. All quiet now.

cotton underwent the greatest decline is
apparent whom we consider that while the
total Liverpool stock, at tho close of the
season. was 81, 600 bales less than at that
time last year, the stock of American cot
ton there was actually 9O,93O bales larger
or to view the Other side of tho same fact.
the total consumptive demand of England
this year was 1920 bales less than last
year, while the demand for American cot
ton was 81 900 bales less.
What direction the price will take dur
ing the present year is not difficult to fore
see. We might infer an upward move
ment simply from the Improvement OF
many mills, both at home and abroad. But
there is surer indication than that afford
ed by the general law of price movements.
We have previously called attention to the
fact that all prices are subject to recurring
periods of rising and falling, there being n
gradual movement from ono extreme to
the other. The price of cotton has passed
through three such periods since tho begin
ming of the season 1901. In that season
it bassan with downward tendency that
Terminated at II 3-4c. on the 2lst of A pril,
1871. From that point there was gradual
rise until the price reached 26 3-4c. on June
6, 1872. Then began another decline, tor
minating November 8, 1873, ut 13 $50, fol-
lowed by y second rise that ended Mt IS 7-8c.
May lG 1874. The decline which has con-
tinled to the present time began at the last
point. The price may, and possibly will,
drop even lower than it is now, but it is
quito sure to rise during the present sea-
son.

The Bossier Banner Is not pleased with

Il delicious freedom to those who WELD the

exposion of the Banner is only n fire

opposing it, but very small noise and n

nostrils. To Mari, Booth s. Co, it says:

even irritate worth shncks. "Drive 'eln in
to line," say You. It will to ke more brains
and manhood than has yet come to the
front among you to accomplish that. Go
slow; burn no bridges, and let us have
peace at a less sacrifice than allowing you to
