Rouge. after the meeting CT the friends OF

A'o SLlB IN ALAGUE-
M1NE.-Wea are pleased to notice in the col
umns of that sterling old journal, the Plaque
mine Sentinel, of the 18th inst, that a Fill
more and Donelson Club has been organized
in that place.
The Sentinel SAYS:
We are happy to be enabled to. say there
are unmistakable indications that the friends
of Fillmore and DoneIson in this parish are,
becoming fully aroused to the importance of
active exertions in the cause of GU: candidates
and the Union and we doubt not that from
this forward, the fire of enthusiasm will be
kept IN a blaze-and the result of which.
there is no question, will be a disappointment
to our Democratic friends in the majority
when they have fondly calculated upon.
The following named gentlemen were cleo
ted officers of the Club:
Samuel Matthews, Esq was elected Presi-
dent; Mr.. Olivia Marionneaux, Vice Presi-
dent, and Mr.. c. W. Pope, Secretary.
If our 1berville friends will put their
shoulders to the wheel and work with a right
steady good will, they can diminish that i'm
mense majority cur opponents there clam,
down to a mere nothing. Go en- every sue
cess attend you. Keep the ball moving!
