Pointe Coupee Democrat. [volume] (False River [i.e. New Roads], Parish of Pointe Coupee [La.]) 1858-1862, 1859-07-09

SOME of the more innocent and unsus-
pecting Of our readers are, perhaps, I'M
aware, that there exists in this State Of
Louisiana, an organization of desperate
politicians, banded together for the ev-
ident, though as yet unavowed purpose
of overthrowing the Democratic party
That while usurping the name Of Dem
o~crats, and pretending to work with US,
they are as opposedto us inprinciples and
action, as was the late Know Nothing
party. The Echo is the organ Of this
faction in the parish of Pointe Coupee.
BY adroit management, and by taking
the Democratic party in Pointe Coupee
unawares, these ~malcontents managed
to secure a majority in our late parish
Convention. Fortunately from the COM
plexion Of the State Convention, this
temporary triumph has ayailed them
but little; and now that the party is
we'll awake and aware of their traitor
aus projects, we think we have seen tie
last of their successes. For the true,
Old Democrats of this parish ouinumber
their new adversaries IN the ratio of at
least three to one.
The most curious and anomalous fea-
ture Of this organization is this: that
while attacking and slandering all true
and time-tested Observation-Disclosures
all Democratic rules and usages, and
abusing generally our men and mea-
sures-they persist lu~dicrously in call
ing themselves Democrats, pretend to
act with us in our meetings, get up what
they are pleased to term Democratic pc
titions against our nominees, in a word,
bore and poster us more than any regu-
lar, welldefined opposition could succeed
in doing.

but this cannot endure OF be en-
dnred." If this diseased portion Of the
body polite will mo- slough off, it must
be removed by force. We must refuse,
for the future. to allow thea to act with
us in ali movements, prelimin>sy to tie.
general elections. If they viii sersist
in calling themselves Democrats, re
must afix TO them an appellatlnn ly
which they may be known and distin-
guished finm the true disciples of our
ancient political faith, As they are in a
miserable minority, we a afford to al
low them h. vote as they please, and for
whom they please, provided they will
permit us to manage our affairs as we
understand them; and quit our ranks,
whore their presence is more offensive
than woull ht that Of open and avov'ed
cnensSs

Celebration Of the 4th at Williamsbort.

NIX. EDITOR: Every enlightened NatlOf
has It's national days, which, in accord
ance with the event intended to be com
mcmoratcd, are either passed in revelry
or thanksgiving; and the 4th of July.
with the American people, is a day o.
universal rejoicing. This is as it should
be; for on that day, 177G, a small, but
devoted band Of patriots assembled III
solemn Congress, and drew up the ccle,
brated Declaration of independence, in
which they declared that these United
Colonies ought to be free and indepcnd-
cnt States, and severed from the British
Crown; and every citizens Of this now
vast Republic is ~cognizent of the effect
Of that declaration.
The citizens of this parish, at and in
the neighborllood of Wil!iamsport, cele-
bratcd, on Monday last, this ~cventful
day, in a most magnificent amer The
place selected for the celebration, was a
beautiful grove on the banks Lake Lafa-
yette.
Early in the day, crowds of men, wo-
men and children were seen assembling
at the trysting place, and at an early
hour the ceremonies of the day com
menced by prayer from the Rev. Mr..
Rowland; the song Of liberty was then
sung by the choir, and the band in at
tendance played a national air, which
was followed by the reading Of the De-
claration of independence by DR.. Dozier.
The speaker of the day, Mr.. Halsey,
was called to the stand, and delivered a
splendid and eloquent Grafton. Mr.. FL. is
quite a young man, and did great credit
to himself on this occasion. In temper
ment, he is cool and collected; IN dcliy-
cred, graceful and elegant, and in style,
far from obscurity and ambiguity. And
should he seek oratorial fame, his is
surely a bright future.
The dancing commenced after the
speaking, and continued until the an.
nouncement Of dinner by the president.
The crowd was soon assembled round
the table, where the most fastidions
epicure would have found everything
that a morbid appetite could have. de-
sired in the way Of meats, fowls, and
|nic-naes
The meats were the finest barbecued
meats that | have ever seen, and / I'M
dcrstand that Mr.. B. R. Coyle was the
supervisor Of this department. 1t is
useless for me to say anything III favor
of his barbecuing, for he is known to be
unapproachable in that line. Many
long and happy days to you Mr.. G., is
the toast | give, Tor 1t has always been
your delight to throw pleasure and hap
.piness in the way Of the young and
hopeful.
/ would undertake to describe the la
dies as they appeared to me on this &C
%casion, Mr.. Editor, did feel competent
to do them justice. And not feeling
competent, assert that a more beauti-
full assemblage Of ladies could not be
found.
The dancing continued until the re-
ceeding sun warned the happy crowd
that it was time to wcnd their way
homewards. G.
