The LADIES OF New ORLEANs.--Judge Ellis
Lewis, who delivered the Grafton at Lancaster, Pa,
on the occasion of the late funeral ceremonies in
honor Of the memory of Gen. Jackson, paid the
following passing compliment TO the ladies of New
Orleans in particular, and the sex in general
"Ihe ladies' Of New Orleans had rnised the money
to discharge the fine the moment IL was imposed !;
but the General declined receiving it, and requested
that il might be distributed among the widows and
orphans ofthose who had fallen in BATH! Ii was
womans gratitude that raised the fund! God bless the
sex! Ever foremost in the work of charity-aways
TO the sick-ngering longest at the cross

erred but once; and if that error had been com
mitted at later period of the world, after 1000
years of bright and lovely deeds, the accusing
spirit had carried the offence to Heavens chancery
