Further along, in the came article from which we
have quoted the Orearian very Justly observes:
sstFIlat Breakfast. y


tain world, we think two things may be set down
absolutely certain viz: that Mr. Joseph Genois ex
Recorder Of the old First Municipality and present
\ Surveyor Of the Port Of New Orleans, takes good
breakfasts on Sunday if he doesn't breakfast on any
other day in the week, and that good friend DR..
p. Reyburn, knows how 10 enjoy well gotup break
fasts ana other fine things Of al appetzing chalac.
Il ter, As well write and publish queer and funny
!. cards. All those who know the Doctor, and all who
read discard in another column will avow the uran
swerableness Of both Of these propositions.
We have read over the Doctors card, and have
laughed heartily while perusing it. We have the
4 pleasure Of being well acquainted with the hia-
riots, even ovial' Doctor and must express our de-
eded conviction that be laid back in his chair and
fairly reared with laughter something less than three
hundred and sixtyfiye times while penning the card
referred to- The Doc. dearly loves a joke" and,
when he is in possession of good one, will dvulge
even at his own expense. He looks upon the man as
sort Of criminal who witIhods anything calculated
to make the people e laugh and grow fat Gracious
goodness knows lie has thriYed enormously upon the
happy principle.
The gist Of the Doctors card may be summed-up in
O few sentences. For a long time DIR. Reyburn has
been the habit of taking Sunday breakfasts at the
house of Mr. Genois. This is fistlate evidence that
Mr. Genos gives good breakfasts glorious breakfasts
for the Doctor has as holy horror Of poor break
eass as he has exalted opinion of excellent break
fasts and his taste in breakfasting respects is unex
lceptonable] He went, as usual, to breakfast with
Mr. Genois last Sunday. The breakfast must have
been one Ericurus would have enyied, as the Doctor
did not depart from the hospitable and luxurious
mansion until about o'clock in the afternoon! The
Doctor met quite number Of the principal
Democrats of the Second District on the interesting
OCCASION All spoke hopefully Of the prospects Of
the Democracy. The Doctor didn't see solitary
sicilian,n and didn't hear 6 single wordn said
about e weapons
The foregoing is the substance Of the Doctors card.
Wewonld, but for fear Of being deemed nqusitiye,
venture upon a question Or two, something in this
4 style: whether the Doctor was not paying more at
tention to the breakfast than the Sicans p? whether
he didn't consider exquisite eatabes and drnkables
too important to be overlooked in q scrutiny after
It weapons n and whether he did notdeem the sue
cessfu enjoyment Of the present Chat sunday) the
most sensible thing a sensible man could do? eq
But we won't put any such intelrogatons. The
world is eensorious and our action in the premises
might be Misunderstood or not freely comprehended.

The ELEcToRAL DISTRICT CoNvENTIoN.-T va

Gazette of the 3d. were SO badly represented that the
| Convention met and adjourned to meet again on
the third Monday Of this month at the same time
1 with the State Convention. There is no question
that the assembling Of the State Convention soon
deferred the party from sending delegates now, and
we think it acted wise, in as much as it will in all
respects, be more convenient. a
