crops through-o out the

& -lne crops throughout the
parish are all that could be eX-
pected from the favorable season
with which we have been blessed.
Tbs corn in our parish is now in
its mature state, while the cane
is growing beautifully, The once
glowing faces of our planters
have at last frightened up, and
if we Judge from appearances,
the yield OF the crops in our Pa
IRISH will be overwhelming.
In addition to the Conserva-
tive names mentioned for State
Senatorial honors, we have heard
the name of Hon. ST Grisamore
(Uncle SilaS) urged for the nomi-
nation. Mr.. Grisamore is a formi
dable candidate and will make

The Mass Meeting.

A meeting for the pnrpose of
organization. and selecting dele
I.gates to the Baton Rouge Conven
ton will be held at Lezin Martins
store on the 10Th inst. We expect
to see Il full attendance, for our
citizens realize too fully the imp0r
tance and magnitude Of the stlug
gle before us, and the necessity
of sending good aud able men to
the convention, to neglect the
OCCASION to evinoe their sense of
the duty incumbent on them.
Every one Should bear in mind in
casting his vote for that
on the conduct OF these delegates
oHr hope Of success III the election

who have brought a blight on the
State, who have looked or it and
its true citizens merely as "A prey
to their rapacity, and who seeing
the end Of their long reign of plum
der draw nigh,wil spare no effort,
shrink from no expedient, to pro
long it. The duty of the Baton
Rouge Convention will be to Sc,
lect for us leaders worthy of Us
and our cause and able to cope
with our foes, men whose very
names, honored by lives of virtue,
Industry will be a guar
antee OF the earnestness and pur-
pose OF our party, and IN whom
the people can trust implicitly,
with 10 suspicion of unworthy
motive. 10 inSure this course, it is
OF the utmost Importance that the
component parts of the conven

and only those me sent who will
truly represent the people +; who
Will have not only ability 70 see
the right, but tirmness to adhere
to it.

We DubliSh this Wapk tho Il

We publish this week the let
ter of Judge Beat,ie written in
1874, Ia response to the proposal
to run him tor Congress. in order
to let the public know Just how
far the Jnge has changed or mod
lfed his political Opinions since
that time; it will be observed that
his first and principal reason for
declining the preferred honor was
that, a conservative himself. he
regarded the so called conserya
tive party as really radical, or ex
IRENE ; his views on the subject
must have undergone a cousidela
Die change, for we have seen him
very lately, presiding over a con
vention which was radical par &c
ceteNce. After some glittering gen
eralities, the Judge announces his
oplnions on the questions of the
day; he says he would have deem
ed it his duty to support the AID
mlnistration Of Grant (; that alone
was enough though the presi
dent had not at that time been
guilty OF his glazing abuses, his
course was such as to foreshadow
all that has happened since, and
while it is not our design to aues
ton the motives which could urge
a southern man to support and
endorse HIM, the fact that he
would do so, is ample reason for
our people why the public servi
ces OF any adherent of Grant
should be declined with thanks.
Ontberemaining principles which
this letter avowS, We may observe
that they, are now, and always
have been held by "A great number
OF our citizens, who may not be
orthodox democrats, but to whom
democracy now means protection
from and opposition to the rapa
cious horde with which Judge
Beattle has now allied himself.
we do not exactly see how those
few who may still he inclined to
vote for Judge Beartie in his pres
ent independent canvass can re-
concile his affiliations with their
opinions. For ourself, we would
advise such a curse as will have
made tue Judge a prophet when
ne expressed the opinion that this
letter would be his political obi
and will respect his desire
to De cleft in peace aud quiet for
the futnre.n

The Republican State Con-
ventiOn,

The unseemly pickering and
disgraceful brawling which has
marked the discussions OF the Re
publican convention has at length
come to an end, and the zeal these
patriots professed foI reform has
resulted i'll the selection of S. 3.
Packard for Governor, and G. G.
Antoine for Lieutenant Governor:
this choice probably surprises 40
one, us Packard, an officer OF the
Administration, welded that pow
er which has come to be supreme
in our State AFFAIRS, and on
which he probably relies to effect
his election, viz The Illegal inter
ference OF the United States gov
ernment. AS to the cry of reform
which the robbers periodically
raise, no one believed them in the
first place, but if they had, the
selection of this ticket would
prove Their steady adherence to
the old policy OF wrong and plum
der.
Packard has always been the
representative Of that baleful in
tiuence which in defiance 0 fiustice
and the constitution has invaded
and oveithrown the prosperity of
Louisiana; on him, more than any
other, rests the Otilum of those
oUtrages and villanies which have
reduced her from as0vereignState
to the condition Of Il conquered
province. =...,
lie conceived the Infamous plan
to overrun the State with soldiers
in 1874, and under his orders they
proceeded Oh their shameful mis-
sion. Such is the man the Republi
cans, with even more than the
usual amount Of cant and hypocri
put forward for governor; as
lor Antoine, he is d mere figure
head, nominated as IL concession
to the negroes, who are easily
satisfied ; be has always been
an abettor and passive ally
II frand and piunder, but only
because he had not the ability to
originate schemes Of rascality.

The Disgrace Of Last
week

The unwise and unjust recon
struction acts of the Radical Gov
ernment have inflicted many hui
mutations upon Louisiana, have
brought her proud head to the
dust and covered her people with
shame, many times since they
We're inaugurated. But there re
manned {: deeper humiliation and
a more burning shame to be i'll
filcted upon her. and that has
been accomplished during the
past week in this city at the St.
Charles Theatre
1t was there that the represen
tatlves OF the party that governs
here and the officers of their GOV
ernmeht met in convention, and
by their conduct not only dis
graced the State as it never was
dlSgraced before, but shamed
mankind By their beastly acts.
Ignorance, drunkednesS and
brutality have marked their every
act and signalized every days
proceedings. From the first hour
OF their assembling up to their
adjournment Saturday night
their proceeding have reSembied
more the orgies of the voudous
than the declarations of civilized
men. All pretense OF the obser
vance 0 forder was thrown aside
and the hall rung with oaths,
lowls aud yells only to be occa,
Ssonaily varied by the crash of
furniture ana the stamping ofthe
feet OF men engaged in combat.
Drnnkard was met by drunkard,

all things held most dear by a
free and enlightened people have

Aud GI these are thlMeop,e who
rule the destinies Of this great
State-one of the sisterhood of
oar proud Republic. These are
the men who still boast that they
are entitled by their nnmeric al

Can it be true? Can snch a crew
by any possible miSohance be

y SIOUX WARRIORS DIARY
Among the interesting relies
brought back by .gentiemen con,
1ectcd with Gen. Crooks recent
expedition against hostile Tn
dlails, and found in the Village of
CrazT Horse, after 1t was aban
doned by the band. and previous
t" It's destruction by Gen. Cooks
a book full OF curious
drawings, which appear TO be the
military record, expressed in pic
ture form, Of some one OF the
Young warriors belonging to the
Indian band. We have seen the
book, which contains many sketch
es, remarkable for bold delinea-
ton and truthfulness to nature.
bearing in mind, Of course, that
the same is the work of an untn
tored Indian artist. The pictures
attacks on American
wagon trains, parties travelling
the highway. In a few ins-
tanccs female figures occur. The
victims + pictured as being
scalped, shot with lifes and ar
rows, and stabbed with lances.
In some Of the pictures the par
ties attacked are Indians of other
Grows and Pawnees being
especially noticeable. Nearly all
the scenes are painted in bright
; the blue uniforms of the
murdered soldiers and the fd
frappingS of the Sioux braves are
especially vivid. 1t is quite Ger
that every scene so pictured
was an actual occurrence. The
warrior to whom this book belong
I'd has a very sanguinary record;
t that is true. The book itself ap-
,ears tC have been an account
book that was stolen from some
'ost-trader. 1t bears date 1861
