The convention Of leyee commission
ers and Presidents of Police Juries which
met at Baton Rouge this week in re-
Spouse to Gov. McEnery's call, was we'll
attended, aud it il believed the result Of
its deliberations will have a beneficial
effect upon our leyee interests. Appro-
pirate legislation by the National and
State governments III behalf Of the con
,truction aud maintenance Of leyees was
recommended and petitioned for, and
resolutions adopted relative to rice
fumes and various matters connected
with the protection Of the country from
overflow. We shall endeavor to give Il
more concise report of the conventions
deliberations in our next paper. Messrs
J. L. Brent, Henry Mccall, j. C. Cohela
and r. I. Hanson represented Ascension
aud took a prominent part in the pro-
ceedings. Gen. Brent was chairman Of
tie committee to recommend suitable
action to the United States government
and a member of special committee,
while Mr.. Mccall was chosen secretary
Of the convention and {. member If the
committee to recommend State legisla-
ton. and some important proposed con
stitutional amendments we're offered by
him and adopted. Judge Howell of La
fourehe was chairman of the assemblase,

tive men as ever gathered in this State"

That lively and popular paper, the New

THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

We find comparatively little matter
proceedings Of the General Assembly
during the past week. The business
transacted up TO this time has been
almost entirely of q preliminary or pre-
paratory character, consisting mainly OF
the notice and introduction of bills and
their reference TO appropriate committees.
The new charter for the city Of New
Orleans will occupy a considerable share
of attention. Several bills on the suo-
iect have been introduced and there will
lie 4 contest over the various systems
proposed for the government Of the
metropolis but it is generally believed
tie bil! framed by the city members OF
the General Assembly will prove the
fayoritc.
Among tue measures introduced or OF
which notice has been given are pro
posed constitutional amendment to pro-
hibit the manufacture and sale Of il toxi
eating liquors except for medicinal
purposes, bill requiring stores and
places Of business to lie closed on Sunday,
!, bill making it a misdemeanor to sell or
buy farm products the ownership of
which is no5 warranted, bill to estah-
lish i. State Normal School, and bills to
relieve the towns Of Houma and Naro-
ieonville Of parochial taxation.
Committees have been or will he
appointed to investigate the affairs OF
the New Orleans Gaslight Company, the
New Orleans Insane Asylum, the Iusane
Asylum at Jackson, the contract between
tie State aud the lessees of the pen;ten-
tiary and for other purposes.
A lew bills; have been reported back
by committees and two or three Of minor
Importance have been acted upon by the
houses of the Assembly respectively, but
il viii be some days later i'll the session
before the work Of legislation is wei
| under way.

A T,Isi,x,ATfEER.

Our friends Of tie Ioaisiaba Rssfa5licna
deny that any reference to Judge Beati'e
was intended by the article we COM
mented OH some weeks ago wherein they
spoke Of sssome sore headed, bull-in-a-
clina-sllop Republican who may feel
that he has heaven born right to go to.
Congress, whether his party nominate
him OF not"
We arc pleased to note the disclaimer
and to commend the high estimate OF the
character and worth Of Judge Beattie to
which the Republican gives expression:
IF more Of this spirit Of fairness and
mutual respect was exhibited among
Republican, leaders the influence upon
tie party would prove highly beneficial.
We contend, however, that it was per-
feetly natura! we should have regarded
tie Republican'simpptation as Intended to
apply toJudge Beattie. Our contempora-
ry was discussing Third District affairs,
cpr0pos of Marceln Ledet's asinine ad-
dress, and characterized that document
as calculated to create diversion Ill
favor of Mr. Acklen OF some sore-headed
Republican candidate for Congress. Our
three most prominent if not only Repub-
fican aspirants for Congressional honors
are Messrs. Beattie, Kellogg and Darrall.
All others, if any there be, must be
classed as dark horses whose only
chance for success lies in possible dead
lock growing out of the claims of the
three gentlemen named. The relatio us
of the Republican with Messrs. Keli og-gg
and Darrall preclude the idet, that the
:. bnlI-in- the china-shop" epithet was
aimed at either of them, and there
seemed to he no alternative but to re-
gard it as intended for Judge Beattie.
Be this as it may, the denial of the
Republican leaves no further room for
discussion OF the point, and we more
than willingly relinlnsh it. Whether
the Republicans OF the Third District
agree with our temporary that Judge
Beattie's usefulness and power for good
to the Republican party lie in field far
apart from the Congressional arena" is
question to he answered by them in the
near future.
