AT about half past six, the fraternity of Masons
moved from the Hall in procession, which IN

in the direction of the Nashville Inn; where they
passed in review; before their iustrious brother,
who addressed by present Grand Master Tan
nehili, TO which he returned an appropriate reply
The procession then, with La Fayette, returned 70
the Masonic Hall, where addresses were in like
manner interchabged between w. e. Hunt, Esq.
and the General.
In the evening the town was brilliantly illuminat-
ed. The sides Of the public square twinkled with a
thousand lights Objects, in every direction, were
distinctly visible and Nashville, for the time, was
completely reclaimed from the dominion OF dark
ness. AT Decker s. Dyer's Confectionery, and at
the Mansonic Hall, two splendid uansparencies
were exhibited. The former the REPRESENT

The General then visited Cumberland College,
and Jointly with Gen. Jackson, addressed by
the Rev. Doctor Lindsey, President of the Col

At about ten or eleven O'Clock, the steamboat

Gentlemen, on board, proceeded towards the resi-

manner of his reception. 1t reflects great credit
upon Gov. Carroll, to whom the Legislature had
