THE STATE CONVENTION.

We hoped to give our readers this
week the result of the proceedings of
the Convention at Baton Rouge; but
the committee on credentials has been
so long in making report that we can
not do SO. The president of the State
committee, in calling the convention to
order, appointed Mr.. Jeffries OF Rapides.
a Nichols delegate, temporary pres
ident-which was acquiesced in by the
convention. A compromise committee
on credentials was selected, made up of
four Nichols. four McEnery, one Cum
ningham, and one Moncure men; and
these ten agreed upon an eleventh one.
The delay has been caused by the large
number of contested parishes; but all
the news from Baton Rouge indicate
that Nichols will be nominated.
