Young friend Capt. Charles D. Dreux, in Odd Fellows
Hail. on Saturday evening last which deserves espe
cial mention.
The orator had been casually referring to disunon
and its incidents, when (pontng to flag that had
previously been presented to the Fillmore Rangers
he remarked, in effect, with powerful emphasis

isiana n The sentiment operated electrically upon
the vast multitude. Simultaneously they sprang to
their feet and cheer cheer shout on shout and ac
claim on acclaim rang through the great hail. until it
seemed as though the applause would never cease.
The mighty Union heart Of the audience was stirred
to its nnermost depths. And then the crowds in the
densely packed anterooms in the passages, through
the Corridors the street and in Lafayette Square,
took it up and sent forth long, loud and enthusiastic
| shouts. They knew not what they were applauding
but they did know that nothing but glorious Union
sentiment could have stirred their brethren Within
and that was all they cared for.
Oh, men of Massachusetts, of Boston! Heark-
en- and respond to this spontaneous outburst of 10y
atty to our common Union--our common flag Your
younger sisters, away in the far Southwest, appeals
to you to reght the fires that erstwhile blazed on
Bunker's Mount that Illuminated every battlefield OF
the Revolution, and made even old ocean lustrous
with deeds Of heroic sacrifice and matchless patriotism
performed by your ancestors.
Ii Will you not2 Aye, you scM!! Neyer-never
can we believe you will allow traitors to deface one
star or desecrate stripe of glorious, COM

citizens who attended the Fillmore barbecue at Ber
wcs Bay on Saturday, did not get back to the city
till last evening twentyour hours later than they
calculated upon. We learn that they had glorious
time at the barbecue, but rather veXatious time Of
it in coming back When near Tigerville, on Satur-
day evening, the locomotive and front were thrown
off the track by running COW. A considerable
delay occurred in getting the cars on again, and it
4 was near midnight before they got under way At
Il 4 o'clock yesterday morning, when near Auberts
Station, the cars were thrown off second time by
misplaced switch
II The passengers all lent q willing hand, but to ne
purposeit was impossible to get the locomotive or
the track. In this dilemma, the conductor walked
4 down the track seven miles, till he came to a hant
car on which he to Algers after another train
leaving the tired and hungry passengers to forag
about for something to eat. In due time, the speca
train reached them and they got back to town las
