- THE AFTERPIEcE.
As soon as the Taylor meeting was declared adj
iourned, young man mounted the stand and called
for three cheers for the Z" Star of the West" which
were given. A motion was then made to organize
Clay meeting, when heavy groans rose from
| every~part of the crowd.
| A set of resolutions were then produced, but as
soon as the reading of them commenced, the lam
terms were removed, leaving the stand in tota dark
ness, when three more cheers were gwen for the
Farmer of Ashland" and three for General
TAYLOR. A speech was called for, when dirty
looking boy about sixteen years OF age dressed IN
a blue smock, and without coat hat or shoes, APP
peared, and said he had few words to say. He
was most enthusiastically received. He said he
was opposed TO General Taylor, because he wanted
to make apigger good as white man, and OPP
posed to the Old lack as because he wanted to go
to war with Texas, and wound up by asking if any
one had three cents, he could speak no longer
without something to wethis throat.
The crowd suddenly became agitated, and a
small fight followed, but soon stopped, the combat
ants all being on one side. The whole party gra-
dsslly dispersed, cheering and groanng, first for
Fsyior then for Clay; and gathering in small knots
in different parts of the street, discussed the pro-
ceedings of the evening. The boys took possession
of the stand until the police appeared and cleared
them out. Thus closed the great ratification, and
attempted organization of the Clay wings; the
whole proceedings partaklng of the dongs OF the
palmiest days of Old Tammany
