the south, and counseled all who heard him, If
they loved the glorious Union, to support Blu
chanan and Breckenridge.
The audience then called upon Gen, r. Il.
Mediation, of East Baton Rouge, who re-
sponded in very happy manner, with words
of encouragement and of compliment to the
young ladies to go OH in the glorious work, and
was greeted with enthusiastic applause. In
obedience to general call from the crowd, the
Hon. Syrus Ratlille, Judge Of this District,
came forward, and though declining to make
speech, said in this crisis it was the duty Of
oil men to use their efforts and put forth their
arms in the cause Of their country, the cause
of all.
The thirty one young ladies here rose, and
in very spirited manner sung democratic
campaign song, which was very attentvely
listened to by all, and called down the house
with cheer Of three times three.
The President then adjourned the meeting
which dispersed with the best of feelings to
wards every body, their misguided opponents
not excepted.
In the evening, the pride, beauty and chiv
airy assembled in the Court House at the ball
1t was fully attended, and though no dancer
oursclf, we were gladdcned at the sight of sc
much enjoyment and pleasure, where merry
hearts bounded and bright eyes glanced will
very loneliness. To "musics voluptuous swcl
they tripped through merry measures bcyont
the short hours of the night, when, with smil
ing faces, and we trust jocund hearts, they
sought their respective abodes. Thus CLOSED
the festivities Of the day, and We hope to til,
entire satisfaction Of "the world and the bal
ance of mankind"
