The ardent and energetic wings OF the
West Feliciana beat to quarters at Bayou
Sara OH Monday the 9th inst, pursuant to
order, a very graphic and soul-stirring &C.
u OF which is given in the last Leuisi-
ana Chronicle. Our neighbor has done his
best in the descriptive and complimentary,
but still has not done justice to the august
and brilliant performances of the day and
night. We wish the one half could be
told. 1t was one of the most startling
scenes of the age-thrilling, too, in the ex-
IRENE. The in,aaeRS concourse of wings
met and organized-patriotic and elegant
speeches were delivered with various pre-
sensations. according to the peculiar idio>
cyncracy of the speaker-after which the
music and fatigued orators made a precip-
itous retreat about town, to revive their
exhausted energies. Some there were, who
could not swallow Scott others a little
nauseated at the dose, were forced by pride
of opinion and obstinacy. to swallow him
as hastily as possible with brandy and SUI
gar in the rear. The day passed off gag
sag-iShty pleasant, when night with its
splendid illuminators beat again to quarters.
The vanous Jack o'lanterns with impress =
sive inscriptions, we mean those "trans-
parancies" and not those greasy restaurat
signs, so ieered at by locofoco spectators,
and the procession, about sixty, men and
boys, moved about the square with enthu>
siasm, and solemnity, and dignity. Such
was the gravity aud regularity Of motion,

every man had a brick in his ha: to keep

Anc WAtG
The mail running between this place and
Naichez is rapidly becoming a public nnis-
ance. Il fails 50 frequently, aud for such
trivial causes. that unless n change is made
BY or in the contractors. the Post Office bad
better be abolished. and Government saved
the expense Of t%ransportating the mail We
do rot wish to wrong any Of the parties
concerned; but as a public journalist it is
our duty o cry aloud and spare not, when
those men charged with public offices are
derelix in duty. Our county police have.
gone TO great expense to build bridges. etc,
so that there is no failure OH the part of the
public to have regular mails. Iii is true
as we are told, that the failures are attribu-
table to bad teams, then, on contractor Flu
gates shoulders lies the blame. 1t was his
own misfortune if he bid off the contractor
ship for less than it was worth he has no
body to blame for it but himself-and the
public will exact a rigid compliance with
the teims of his bond. In such a matter no
room for sympathy e%xists-aEd mail con-
tractor generally deserves all the abuse he
gets for failures. Judging from the low
state of flesh OF such of Mr. Fugate's team,
as we have seen, they would not certainly
take premiums at a worlds fair. In form.
e. times, when the Homochitto and BufTa-
10 swamps were to contend with, we got
three mails per week now that there is
scarcely a duck puddle in the road, the cry
is failure . failure I!
The public will expect our worthy Post
master to take due note of this complaint
and lay it before the proper authorities.
A BETTER UNA friend related to us a
day or two since, the following amusing an
ecdote.
"a person, who for convenience let Us
call b, was in the habit of dealing
somewhat extensively in 'tcet goods aud
groceries" His operations in this line had
been so extensive that he had become a con
irmed topper. OF this vice, some of the b.
hoys of the town where B--was soiour-
ming, undertook to cure him. Accordingly,
one night, when B--was deeply, dark
ly, beautifully blue, they prepared a grave,
tombstone, etc, in the grave yard HARDLY,
whittier they conveyed the inebriated B :
hoping by this process to frighten him into
being a sober man. Everything being ar
ranged, and one Of the party having consen>
ted to say there with him, they burned him
with the honors, and retired to await the
result.
After sleeping a drunken sleep for about
four hours, he awoke, and his surprise may
be imagined at finding himself inferred, and
all the paraphernalia Of death around him.
Nearly sobered by his fright and sleep, he
ejaculated-
Oh, lord where am |?
A voice from above replied, in solemn
tones
You're dead
And pray, sir, how long have | been bu-
rel here ?
Six wceks-was the reply.
And .ow long have you been here?
About five months.
Five mcnths-replied B very So
berly, and speaking as if his mouth was fiji.
led with cCtton-well, | say, neighbor, you
have been here a Id sight longer than |
have, can you tell me tphert | can get a
