Public Meeting.

There. was large and enthusiastic
meeting Of our citizens at the new Hall
lately erected by our city authorities, on
Tuesday last. The meeting was called
for the purpose ofraising funds to assist
in equipping the volunteer companies about
leaving for the seat "f war. A great deal
of enthusiasm prevailed on the occasion,
and our neighbOring planters, almost to a
man came forward and subscribed literally
towards this laudable, patriotic and noble
purpose.
The meeting was organized by calling
Gen. Montfort Wells to the Chair, and the
appointment ofC. } Hines, Esq, as Sec
Rotary. After the meeting was orga7ized
the Hon. NJ. Ryan was called upon TO cx-
press his views in relation TO the object tor
which the meeting was called, and res
bonded TO the call in one of the most elo-
quent and patriotic appeals ever made.
Soneof his remarks were most vociferously
applaudcd. Col. Ryan was followed by
Mcssrs. Manning, Garfield and Capt. John
kelso, in the same stirring and patriotic
manner.
The citizens of Rapides are now banded
together as one man in defence of their
rights, and are willing, MS did their fathers
Of old, to pledge their lives, their fortunes
and their sacred honor in defending to the
last extremity, their rights and their insti
tutions. This is as it should be. The
past should be buried in oblivion and let
1t not be said that there is one man in
glorious ''old Rapides" who is not willing
to sacrifice all for the honor and glory Of
his country.
AT the closing of the remarks, com
mittee of five was appointed to solicit
subscriptions for the purpose stated consis-
ting of Messrs. VI. Welch, II. Robertson.
/. Texada, DIR. X. VI. Clark and n. Ryan,
who are ready at all times to receive con-
tributions. About three thousand dollars
was subscribed instanter, AID the commit
tee here appointed L. II. Biossat, Treasu-
rer, TO receive all moneys subscribed for
this patriotic object.
In conclusion We would say that all our
citizens who are able should at once coma
up and lend helping hand. War, long
and bloody war, has no doubt ere this
commenced, and money should be furnished
At once to assist those brave spirits, who
are willing to risk their lives in battle for
Southern rights

THE DEPARTURES.

Rapides has given a response to the
call of the Governor, which will be felt in
this emergency. On Thursday morning
the Hodge was at Our wharf, and in ODE
dience to the call of the iroh-tohgued raj
lier the members of the Moore Guards re-
ported themselves in persons, ready for
the campaign. Amidst the roar Of cannon
and the huzzahs of sympathizing friends,
the corps marched aboard the Hodge. The
flag of the Confederate States was borne
aloft at their head, and with their hundred
bayonets glittering in the morning light,
they took their departure. If the depot
ment of the rest of that company comes up
to the measure of manliness of their CON-
mander, it will not under-rank that of any
body of men in America. The brave and
chivalrous gentleman who leads them to
the wars, will be found every where and
at all times, first in places of danger and
ready TO peril all for the safety and honor
of his company and his country. There
is more Importance attached TO the charac-
ter of the soldier commandant, of body
of men, in war, than is usually supposed
The maj A'vSi6 leads men TO danger, must
be of unquestioned courage, and possessed
of the characteristics to entitle him to his
position. Capt. Kelso is a gentleman
one of Gods noblemen; and in every way
worthy to hold the position which he occu
pies. We may safely say that to what
ever post of danger that gallant Office
may be called, it viii be well provided.
1t is well worthy of mention that tn,
"Moore Guards" are composed almost en-
tirely of young, unmarried men, there no
being. that we could see, more than tire
or four married ones in the company be
sides the Captain.
The company left many friends behin'
them, who would not have been recOncilet
to their departure save for the purpos
which called them away. Mothers hav
given up their children TO their country
fathers have armed their sons and devotet
them to the cause of patriotism. The frs
demonstration proper has been made
Rapides has given part of the evidenc
she had in store for the COnfederacy sh
will give substantial proof of her entir
devotion to the common cause whenever
may be needed. We learn that there i
another company nearly made up, whicl
i will respond to the Governor next week.
A word in conclusion. Our sympathie
are all with the soldiers of the Southern
Confederacy. Their breasts are barred 70
the defence of our rights, which must an,
will be preserved at every hazard an,
sacrifice. There is not man unless b
be fOoD who doubts our individual devo
ton to the country which we have chosel
for our home, and with which we hav
identified our every interest under heaven
We send benizon after the compan,
which has left us for the wars. The lau
rels which the Moore Guards" shall win
let them bring home with them. There i
not one in the ranks who will not be wei
coined back again, safe. Tire the Con
federacy, God and our land of liberty

We are United.

The tocsin of war has been sounded
through the length and breadth of the
land. Lincoln has at last unmasked him.
self, and his mad policy stands revealed
In all its damnable and unmistakable pur-
poses. In his madness he has done for
the Southern States what was considered
by many to be absolutely necessary to
maintain distinct and HEerful govern
ment. He has united all the slave States
as one man, and they are now banded to-
gether, an unwavering and impenetrable
phalanx, ready and determined to defend
and vindicate their rights to the last ex-
tremity.
AS one of those who strongly dissented
from the dominant party insthe mode Of
secession, and the object for which l con
tended-a union of the slave States-is
now attained, there can be no longer bu
one voice in the land. There is now but ont
purpose-One heart-one destiny.
ONE WHO LOVES HIS Country

MORE SOLDiERs.-Two large companies
of iinc-looking, stalwart men arrived here
yesterday. their way to the seat Of war.
The first company came down on the j.
NJ. Sharp, and hail from the parish OF
Caddo. Among the musicians we noticed
Il man of very pleasing countenance play
ing the fiddle, who, "throwing himself back
upon his dignity" and keeping his foot
briskly "patting," seemed TO take the
greatest delight in the music he was max
ing. This makes the third company from
Caddo. A short time after the Sharp left
the Rapides brought down a company
from Natchitoches, under the command OF
Capt. VIM. VI. Levy, Of the Natchitoches
Chronicle. They are a spirited band, and
our city was quite lively with them last
night. The Rapides left for New Orleans
this morning, taking with her, besides the
Natchitoches company, a detachment OF
the Moore Guards, who are going hence to
JOIN their company below.
There are several more companies ex-
pected daily from above. They are to
come from the parishes of Wiun. BOssier,
Claiborne and De Soto.

OUR CORRESPONDENTS JOURNAL.

1t has strange influence over the hu.
man mind, the ''pOmp and circumstance of
war;, that men bent upon an GRAND of
death and destruction, going TO endure
every Prlvation and suffering and to face
every danger, should leave the comforts
and endearments of home buoyant with
delight and electrified by a certain pleas
urable excitement. Never was the fact
more marked and real than in the depar.
ture OF the Louisiana Zouaves from New
Orleans on the 9thinstant and when they
were once off the soil of their State and
realized that they We're on their way to
Pensacola, tteir spirits rose to pitch of
enthusiasm that might he more easily ac
counted tor were they going to bridal in
stead OF what may be to many grave.
AS the steamer Henry Lewis ploushed
her way ieisurely through the waters of
Pontchatrain, and through the darkness of
the night, all was merriment and ANNA
ton upon her decks. In the cabin the
officers of the Third and Fifth Commands
sat in social converse, recalling the past
and Specializing upon the future, while the
men, thrown together almost for the first
time, were affiliating and giving themselves
up with whole soul to the pleasures of
the moment. Leaving New Orleans Tues
day evening, the detachment found them
selves at Mobile Wednesday, at 6 O'Clock.
j. NJ, where they found themselves oblig-
ed to remain over until the next dav, 70
get transportation to the point where their
route OF march would commence, and they
were CHARTERED for the night on the same
boat.
The correspondent here pays a very
nice compliment to the Mobilians for their
hospitable reception of the Zouaves, and
alludcS very pleasantly to his meeting with
