On Saturday. the Quitman demonstra-
ton came off" and it was one worthy Of
the occasion. Every body seemed anxious
10 join in paying the last sad tribute 10 the
memory Of the patriotic, chivalrous, and
illustrious deceased-M issississippi's great
est, purcst, truest man. The day was pro-
pitious for the pageant deep solemnity
seemed to pervadc the vast concourse as
semblcd to pay homage to his cherished
memory. The slow and solemn tread Of
the great procession, the heavy beat of the
Grape enshrouded drum, officers caparison-
cd in the dark habiliments Of grief, all be-
spoke the sad fact that great calamity
had beiallen the State in the death Of
hero, warrior. statesman and patriot, the
bare mention Of whose name awakens the
tenderest and noblest emotions Of the soul
Mr.. HooEER fully sustained himself in the
composition and delivery Of his address
The listening multitude sat with noiseless
attention, eager to catch every word as it
obtained distinct utterance from the lips
Of the eloquent and empassioned orator
And a. he, with sublime pathos, presented
charming panorama Of the many noble
virtues and illustrious deeds, with the grand
array of moral, political and military
achievements of the immortal deceased,
blended emotions of admiration, love and
sorrow seemed to entrance the breathless
thousands. The address was long, but
Ill - l.
honor or praise cannot be bestowed on the
interesting theme-rHE MEMORY OF Our
MAN.
At night, the Rev. Mr.. CAsEEY, deliv-
cred a Masonic Eulogy to ''the Craft"
which was the best ever listened to. 1t
appears that Gen. QUIrNAN was Mason
by profession and practice. He not only
knew the signs, passwords, &c, Of that
ancient Order, but he squared his life, and
plummed his every act according to its
high standard of Moral Rectitude and its
humane teachings Of fraternal and univer-
sal Bencvolence.
Hon. JEFT. DAVIS Is expected here du-
ring this week, and from him we NAV be
able to learn something reliable in refer
ence TO the popular feeling North, a. to-
wards the South. This week, too, the
State Fair comes off. and it Is expected
that many people, and a great many other
matters Of interest will be on exhibition.
The preparations on the grounds are ample
and tasty.
