Nothing gives us greater pleasure than to see
good order prevail among our citizens upon oc-
casons when they are called upon to assemble
and rejoice over the success of the political party
to which they may be attached and such was the
case last evening during the continuance OF the
Democratic Jubilee, our citizens Of both political
parties, no matter how high their temper may
rise during the campaign, when the contest IS
over always yield quietly to the victors
The affair last evening was well managed; the
procession was long one, and was so arranged
that among the many beautiful and appropri-
ate transparencos carried in the line, not one
was seen that could give offence to the defeated
party. This was as it should be, and is credita-
BILE to all concerned in the management of the
procession.
We presua, this to be the last public demon
stration by either political party, that will take
place in this city before the opening of the next
Presidential campaign. The business now will
be done silently, and what is done will be known
after the 9TH of March next, and the announce
meut Of it, though it may fail to please al, will
make MAJ glad hearts.

A Great Bargain.

| In one of Mr., Willis's recent letters to the
Home Journal, we find the following paragraph
relating to the original purchase of, and the
amount paid for the Mammoth Cave in Ken
lucky.
Colonel Croghan, to whose family it belongs,
was resident of Louisville He went to Europe
some twenty years ago, and, as an American,
found himself frequently questioned Of the won
ders of the Mammoth Cave--a place he had never
visited, and of which, at home, though living
within ninety miles of it, he had heard very lit
tie. He went there Immediately on his return,
and the idea struck him to purchase and make it
family inheritance. In fifteen minutes bargain
ing, he bought it for $40, 000 though shortly af
ter he was offered S100, 900 for his purchase In
his will he tied it up in such way that it must
remain in his family for two generations, thus
appendiug its celebrity to his name. There are
nineteen hundred acres in the estate-three
square miles above ground-though the cave
probably runs under the property of great num-
Der of other land owners For fear Of those who
might dig down and establish an entrance to the
cave on their own property, "a mans farm ex-
tending up to the zenith down to the nadir great
vigilance Is exercised to prevent such subterra-
mean surveys and measurements, as would enable
them to sink shaft with any certainty. The
cave extends ten or twelve miles in several direc-
tons, and there is probably many backwoods-
man sitting in his log hut within ten miles of the
cave, quite unconscious that the most fashiona-
BILE ladies and gentlemen of Europe aud America
are walking without leave, under his corn and
potatoes"

Look this way fellow teachers Do you claim
to belong to the teachers profession! Do you
respect it Do you wish to honor it Do you
wish it to be honored? If so, will you not show
your claim, your respect, and your honor by at
tending the meetings of the Association? Who
has more interest in this matter than youe Come
there ; come to the meeting on Saturday after
noon next.
Ye parents and citizens of Washington; this
is no Association of secular character which
can so affect, and which does so affect your own
interests. If you do not believe it, come to the
meetings and you shall be convinced. You are
most freely and cheerfully invited to attend.
Lectures are to be delivered once in two weeks,
by experienced teachers discussions on these
lectures, and on various educational topics, will
occupy some portion of each meeting and we
candidly believe that those who are interested in
the welfare of the rising generation, cannot spend
an hour more proftably, than by attending these
meetings, once in two weeks at the Smithsonian
Lecture Rooms
Remember The next meeting, with a lee
ture from Rev. NJ. Noble, will be at o'clock on
Saturday, Nov. 18th

An Irish exile.

We clip the following from the Savannah
Georgian of Monday last, as of his interest 20
his numerous fellow-countrymen and friends in
our city
RICHARD uGoRMAN. This distinguished exile
arrived here In the Alabama on Tuesday last, and
has since been stopping at the Pulaski House.
he visits our city on business connected with
his profession, aud has declined all public houors
since his arrival He however was prevailed
upon to attend private supper at the Hall of the
Hibernian Society, on Thursday evening, which
caused contemporary TO represent him as the
guest Of the Society upon that occasion. We
had the pleasure of being present at the supper
and have rarely enjoyed SO pleasant an evening.
MIR. OGoRMAE is one of that gallant band who
in l848, incurred the censure of the British Gov
ernment, by his devotion to his native land and
for which offence he had to fee his coudtry. He
however, was more fortunate than his compa-
triots O'Brien, Mitchell, Meagher, and Others
some of whom still exist, the victims of despotio
power
Our readers have already been informed of Mr.
OGorman's escape TO France, and his subsequent
arrival at New York, where he has since occupied
himself in the practice of the law. He is gen.
lleman of prepossessing address, Of high order
Of talent and is in every way calculation to adorn
n profession in which he has already acquired
considerable practice.
He takes his departure from among us to day,
and we cannot permit the occasion to pass with
out wishing him the realization of his most SAN
guine expectations in the home of his adoption
