Parish Convention.

Whereas, a meeting of the Demo-
cratic Executive Committee was called
to meet at Monroe ON the 9Th inst, for
the purpose of fixing day for the
meeting of the Parish Convention to
select a delegate to the Constitutional
Convention; and, whereas, said COM
mittee failed to meet in pursuance of

Emery, chairman of said committee,
hereby call Parish Convention to

the first day OF March, 1879, to select a
delegate to said convention, and to
transact other important business.
The wards, according to new num-
bers, are requested to elect delegates to

Lecture by Mrs. Sam Bard.

On Tuesday evening next, the citi-
zens of Monroe will have the privilege
of listening to a lecture by Mrs. Sam
Bard, on the subject of " Contest, or
Time on Hevie,o." Mrs. B., in the
death of her husband, Gov. Sam Bard,
by the late yellow fever epidemic, is
thrown entirely upon her own resources
for the maintenance of herself and
daughter. For many years past she
has contributed extensively to the edi-
toria1 department of her husbands
paper, he having been one of the vete-
ran editors of the South.
Mrs. Bard, having been born and
educated in our own State, appeals
largely to the sympathies of our people,
their appreciation of womanly worth !;
and while the lecture field has hitherto
been found profitable to women, only
in a northern latitude, we are sure that
the chivalric manhood of tho South
will welcome an opportunity of attest
ing their approval of a true woman in
any capacity that will yield her a sup
port as we'll rs profit others. Mrs. Bard
has clear mind, and is terse, forci-
bic writer. Her subject opens wide
field for thought, and we have no hest
fancy in saying that the citizens OF
Monroe have an intellectual treat in
store.
In connection with the lecture, Mrs.
Bard has succeeded in combining the
best musical talent of the city. Miss

River News.

Three inches day is the rate at
which the river has been rising during
the past week, and it is still climbing
the banks at that rate. A fall pretty
soon is highly probable, but we fear
this will be only slight, and that an
other rise will soon follow.
The john Wilson, the first arrival
since closing our last report, passed
down Thursday night with 200 bales
and lot of seed. Her chimneys had
not been repaired, and many were the
inquiries, "What boat is that ?'' She
didn't ssfavor'' herself at all, with five
feet of both chimneys of, and literally
hid with cotton.
The "high-Ayer'' Corona came up
Thursday at p. M, fifty hours out
from New Orleans. She kept the lead
Of everything on the Mississippi to the
mouth of Red river, the Lee excepted,
and managed to keep In sight of her.
She passed down Monday at 1 p. M,
with 21OO bsles, all she wanted.
The Bastrop passed down at s p. NJ,
Friday, loaded.
The Bertha Drummer came down
Sunday morning with 100 bales cotton
which she discharged on barge, there
not being space enough on the bank to
put it. The load proved too much for
the barge and she sunk, but Capt. Geo.
Jenkins, of the elevator, proved equal
to the emergency and brought the
cotton safely up the hill, but as a mat
ter of course the cotton was wet and so
was George.
The John Howard passed up at II
O'Clock Monday morning. She dis
charged a big freight hero, and we look
for her down to-day.
