cheers from The Club for the ladies'. Al
the order to /" charge, the company
proved that they were Wide Awake in
approaching the request. For fifteen
minutes the work of demolishipg the
pyramids and circles of cakes went for
ward, and we think the ladies had no
cause to doubt that the collation. was
grateful to the physical man. When all
were satisfied, the President Mr.. DoN-
NAN, took the head Of the table, aud If
ter few remarks, thanking the Wide
Awake ladies of Independence, on behalf
Of the Club, for tic rich repast SO gen
orally given, offered the following toast :
The Republican ladies of Independence
Heaven is with the rigbt--the right is with the
adies-the ladies are with us. We shall sac
coed.
The toast was received with cheers, at
the conclusion of which Col WARREN
was loudly called for, He responded in
a very pleasing speech, eliciting much
applause. Calls were then made for
Messrs. BuLLES, TABOR, Woodward,
LEWIS, LAKE. RIcu, DOMAIN, WRIGHT,
JORDAN, and SHANNON, of the Favette
County Observer, all Of whom responded
happily, and SO as to elicit laughter and
applause. Several songs were sung by
Messrs. WRIGHT, MARINUs, ZIMMERMAN
and others, and for an hour there was as
hearty a scene of festiyity as we ever
saw. We never were present at an occa-
sion of the kind that could approximate
this in general good feeling and enjoy
ment. There was not particle Of con-
fusion-the inspiration all came from the
occasion, everything that was said told
well, and above all, the consciousness of
receiving the smiles of such a noble lot
Of enthusiastic women as were there
present, made the occasion one of unal-
loyed pleasure. The ladies have a right
to be proud of the entertainment.

Wide Awake Demonstration

G9v On Wednesday night last, the
Wide Awakes made their third parade
They left their headquarters about hall
past eight O'Clock, numbering. seventy
five uniforms. They were accompanied
BY the Independence Brass Band and by
Bray's Martial Band They marched
down Main street as far as the bridge
then countermarched and drew up in
double column in front Of the Monlour
House, and saluted Col. WARREN with
three cheers. The Col. being loudly
called for, came forward, and in a neat
speech of a few minutes in length, ac-
knowledged the honor of the visit just
as he concluded the Douglas Inyincibes
marched up, and the Wide Awakes paid
them the courtesy ola "present arms 1"
Countermarching again. the Wide Ava
kes passed down Main street, across the
bridge, and as far west as the Empire
House. Returning, they performed a
number of evolutions on Main street, ex-
hibiting very creditable degree Of pre-
cision. Their steady step, orderly con
duct, the ease and readiness of their ma
nmuvering, extorted encomiums from
all. And certainly nothing can look
prettier than the long line bright torch.

the various movements of the drill, the
light reflected back from the glazed caps
and capes worn by the members.
But the best part Of the demonstration
on Wednesday night, remains TO men
ton, The ladies' here, as elsewhere
very generally on the side of freedom,
and consequently anxious for the sue
cess of the Republican cause-determin-
ed to manifest their sympathy and ap-
prevail of the Wide Awake movement in
way most gratifying. When the Wide
Awakes had concluded their march, and
in two columns entered their drill-room
they found row Of ladies ranged along
each wall who. through Judge TABOR
invited the Club to collation. which
they had prepared-an invitation accept
ed with three cheers for the ladies. The
doors opening into the ball alley back Of
the drill room were then thrown open,
and we could see. stretching down the
long space, a most agreeable prospect.
The order to march was given, q man ON
each side OF the door received the torch

the two lines marched in and ranged
themselves on each side of the great ia
