any candidate, but it is known that the

Indiana, who are here on the investigating
committee, will address the convention to-
night, by invitation.

CINCINNATI.

Informal Meeting of the Louisiana Dele.
CINCINNATI, June 4-A meeting of the
Louisiana delegation was held. Kellogg
did not attend, and of those who act with
him in the party, only United States Mar
shall Packard and Chief of Police Loan, of
New Orleans, we're present. There was Q
general understanding that the meeting
should be considered informal, although its
decisions are Just as binding upon the dele
cations as those passed in the meetings of
other States.
Mr.. Pinchback intro luced a resolution
directing the vote of the Louisiana delegs-
ton to be cast as Q unit on all questions
arising in the convention.
Mr.. Packard objected to the adoption of
this resolution. He said he was willing to
cast one vote for Senator Morton, in ac-
cOrdanoe with the instructions of the State
convention, but after that he intended to
vote tor Mr.. Blaine as long as he is can
didate. Should Mr.. Blaines name ever be
withdrawn, he should then vote for the
Presidents candidate. He objected to the
resolution on the theory that tho State con-
vention had no right to instruct the dele
gates further than as to the first ballot.
Mr.. Pinchback is said to have followed in
. very excited speech. He spoke of Presi-
dent Grant in terms OF disrepect, and at
tributed to the policy he had pursued the
present almost hopeless condition of the
party in Louisians. The troubles in the
party began, he said, on the day when the
Casey Packard Customhouse Convention,
in New Orleans, refused to admit q
certain class of Republicans, and en-
forced the refusal by the use of Gatling
guns. In conclusion he asserted that, amid
all the corruption and Encouragement
which has cursed tho South since the war,
and for which the Northern adventurers
who have to 80 great an extent held CON
troll there are principally responsible, not a
single negro political thief has ever yet
been convicted in courts of justice. This
can not be said of the white politicians. He
announced Bristow as second choice.
Mr.. Pinchbsck said he himself would
have been to-day in the Senate Of the
United States had it not been for General
Grant, Mr.. Conkling and others. They
feared that he wished to bring his wife into
Washington society, thing which he had
never contemplated; he had never sQugh,
to force his family into the social pdeitior
which his prominence as an officer Of th.

CINCINNATI, June IA, 1876, ll:45 P. NJ.
A very strong movement has been de-
veloped tonight.
1t is said that New York, Indiana, Ohio
and Kentucky are in it.
Strenuous efforts are being made to bring
in the Western and Northwestern States,
with a promise of success in Michigan.
Don Cameron is struggling with the
Pennsylvania delegation to bring them in,
and is said to have secured all but about .
dozen.
Don is on the war path, determined to
show what the Camerons can do; but as
Blaine is sustained by the strong, stalw art
sons OF the West, besides his New England
friends, it will be big job to defeat him.
In case Hayes be nominated, Bristow
may come in for the second place.

CINCINNATI, June IA, 1876.
There is great activity among the poll
ticians tonight. There is an immense crowd
of people at the Grand Hotel, where the
Conkling headquarters are located.
Blaine still has the call by large plural
ity.
The decision of the committee on creden-
tials in favor Of the anti-Spencer delegation
from Alabama, headed by HARRISON, is re-
garded as Blaine victory, as 1t seats his
friends from that State.
Unless all the opponents of Blaine can
concentrate upon one candidate before the
meeting to morrow, he will probably be
nominated on the second or third ballot.
A combina. on between the Blame and
Bristow men, with the latter tor Vice
President, would settle the question at
once.
On the other hand, if the Morton and
Conkling men combine they might sue

AN IIONEST LOVE.

We will return to Henriette, who, like
her sister was living in the hope of meet
ing the one who had been so cruelty torn
from her by the rude hands of unscrllpu-
lous men.
She is seated in poorly furnished attic
room, engaged at sewing, while her
thoughts wander back TO the fatal night
when, strangers in the great city, the two
unprotected girls were doomed by hard,
unyielding fate to wander apart, seeking,
but never finding the other.
While she was thus engaged, low
knock was heard at the door, and the
Chevalier de Vaudrey entered.
A careless observer would have seen
that he was lover, and then the object Of
his alteration was before him.
"Henriette," he said, tcnderly taking
her hands and pressing them to his lips,

agitated."

A FRENCH DUEL.

A sanguinary duel took place in
France the other day. In a heated
political discussion blow was given
by Count de x to the Duke of 4,
The Duke didn't return the blow but
few minutes later finding himself
alone with the gentlemen who were to
act as his seconds, he took an oath
never to see his wife or.little girl again
until he had washed away the insult
in the blood of the Count. The next
day the duel took place. The Duke
was wounded twce--in the forearm
and in the right side before the
Count had received a scratch but
the Duke Notwithstanding his suffering
and loss of blood from his wounds, in
sisted on continuing the fight. The
duel went on the Duke, making a
superhuman effort, drove his sword
through his adversary, who fell life
less. Then. pallid as death, bathed in
his own blood, and with difficulty sus-
tanning himself the Duke drew white
handkerchief from his pocket, and
bending over the Counts body, dipped

from his adversary's death wound, and
turning to the four seconds, who look
ed on aghast, the Duke raised the
blood.stained cloth to his face and
said: "You will tell them, gentlemen,
how the Duke of z avenged the
blood of the one who insulted me-"
He then said to his own seconds
"Take this handkerchief, Rhich / con-
fide to you, to the Duchess, my wife;
| enjoin upon her as duty to place
it among the wedding presents Of my
daughter when she shall be married
it is her fathers gift to her-the puri-
ty of his name" The words were
hardly spoken when the Duke fell
back dead; and in death his features
looked calm and proud, and almost
wore smile. His honor had been
satisfied.

KILLED BY AMBITION.

A terrible comment on the process
of brain-cramming which obtains in
our public schools, is the melancholy
death of New York school. boy.
The boy, it would appear, was of an
ardent, ambitious temperament, high
ly sensitive, and up to certain crit.
ical point in his school. boy life, studi-
ous to the extent of distancing all
class competitos of his own age. I'm
fortunately, as the result showed,
these qualities attracted the attention
of his teacher and his parents, who,
desirous of creating prodigy, had
the lad promoted to a higher class,
with the members of which it was
morally impossible for him to cope.
The natural result followed. The stu
dious boy lost his ambition with the
full knowledge that he could net graf
ify it, and gradually found his way
to the end Of his class. He became
so negligent that his teacher, in the
belief that he ha / degenerated through
simple carelessness, wrote up his name
in great letters on blackboard, SO
that all corners should read it. The
rest is shortly told. The boy told his
schoolmates that he would commit su-
icide, and he kept his word, though
they thought it was school-boy brava.
do. He deliberately hung himself
with a book k-strap, and the verdict of
the coroner's jury was simply Suicide
by hanging" There is no doubt that
the buys mind was uuhinged by over
study, and he became sacrifice to
"the ambition that kills" Studious-
ness is an excellent thing, in the schol-
ar, but, like all good qualities, may
be carried to far.
