PRESS CONVENTION.

The Louisiana Press Convention
will assemble in New Orleans next
Monday. While we are in full &C.
cord with the objects of the Asso-
citation, it will be absolutely impossi-
BILE for us to attend. Those editors
who are fortunate enough to be
able to leave their sanctums and at
the same time know that business
is progressing, should attend the
Convention, and assist in the
thorough organization Of the press
of the State. But for us, we "can' I
get away" without missing ar
issue of our paper. and there are
certain considerations which render
this impracticable. At the same
time our best wishes are with thu
Convention, and whatever actor
may be had will surely meet will
our cordial Endorsement. "Busi
ness before pleasure" is our excus
for non-attendance.

justified it. Desirable locations can
be had at merely nominal prices
With proper transportation facili-
ties, our gardeners could have their
products in the New Orleans market
within about two hours time, which
is amply sufficient for all purposes
The dairymen would also find il
greatly to their advantage to locate

by our parish, in the shape OF cheal

Prominent Northern Republicans
are proposing an alliance between
the Southern Democrats and the
Republican party, on a basis OF
limiting suffrage to those who can
read and write, and favoring inter
nal improvements, a stable currency
and good government. This would
disfranchise nearly the entire negro
population of the South. This pro-
position doubtless owes its origin
to the fact that the Republican
party has practically lost its con-
trolling influence over the colored
voters of the South, who have, OF
late years, been largely voting with
those to whom they are principally
indebted for the advancement OF
their personal and material inter-
ests. Hence this alarm on the part
Of the Northern Republicans, who
are fearful of losing their present
controlling influence, and are en-
deavoring to save themselves by in
viting the South to rush blindly
into their arms.
On the other hand, Northen
Democrats are advising the South
to remain solid. This policy was
pursued in the last Presidential
campaign, when the votes OF the
Solid South, assisted by the sym
pathy and fair promises OF the
Northern Democrats, resulted in thu
election Of Garfield. We gave then
our all, and got nothing in return
The policy Of many of the leading
Democrats of the North is in direc
opposition to Southern interests
as proved by their course in Con
gress upon various questions o
vital importance to us. In GU
opinion, the South now holds it
destiny in its own hands, and in tn
light Of passing events. we advis
it to keep its hands to ITSELF" a

tangible in sight than gilt-edge

the money necessary to build it
could be raised in less than a week
