New Orleans daily crescent. [volume] ([New Orleans, La.]) 1851-1866, 1861-04-16

The Combinations "dfsperse bcauti-
fully, the very first day:
Two things considerably agitated New Orleans
yesterday; and the two agitating things were,
firstly, Abraham Lincoln's piety in giving to us
Southern rebels, towards, traitors, law-breakers,
robbers niggcrstealers, kdnappers, nigger killers
and otherwise tropical turkey-gobbIers and aged
shanghai chickens. Secondly, the manner in which
the combnalions'' of New Orleans proceeded
to diapcrse"
The South has been long time ready for the
" "irrepressible conflict" gotten up and offered by
the niggerloying patriots of the North We only
wish the niggcr-worshippers could have seen New
Orleans and what its feeling was, when II. O. A. IS
fatherly grace of twenty days, AMI his pious hint
about 1000 Northern men, and his Fourth of July
Congress, and SO on, came through yesterday 8
dispatches.
They would have seen fire in every manly eye !;
damascened steel in the every movement of those
who had already taken up arms and warlike spirit
and converse of old men, middle aged men, young
men, boys, who had not as yet taken up arms,
hoping, but hardly believing that the excitement
was all emptiness.
They would have seen the lately clamorous
mouths and grandoquent pens of the " Unon-at
any-prce'' men pale and paralyzcd, respectively
They would have seen many distressed-lookng
men, who have, SO far, through decency on the
chivarous side, been termed only submssonists ="
elected silently by their own actions to the last
office or position that can be accorded to white
Americans-that of insane knaves or cowardly
dirt-eaters.
They would have witnessed the drumming up of
companies, and the lively response all around the
city. They would have seen the war excitement
everywhere. They would have seen, as they can
at any time see, community of men, (cEceptne
the base exception to which we have alluded
who prefer fighting to nglorious case, and who
prefer death to dishonor eternal disgrace to sub
mission.
They would have seen the ovation which was
paid to two companies of our citizen soldicry when
they left for Pensacola yesterday afternoon. They
would have seen 200 of the very best men that
ever patriotic city sent forth to battle Not com.
mon recruits, such as are picked up and shipped
off to wars in which the people at home have no
interest, but young men representing the wealth.
the promise, the hope, of the home of their birth
such young men as met the foe on the fields of
Agincourt and Cressy.
They would have seen this great city in a
measure, suspend its business streets nocked
mobs following: ladies crowding the balconies.
waving their kerchiefs, and smiling through tears
as they saw sons, brothers, husbands in the ranks.
They would have seen the greatest mob ever vet
seen at the Pontchartrain Railroad depot and
would have seen the longest and heaviest train of
passengers that ever passed over that road to the
lake-the line of the road, as far as the ctv went
being crowded with men, women, and children
shouting, waving handkercnefs, and offering every
other demonstration of heart feeling and sympatbv
They would have beheld a scene of enthusiasm
at the lake quite sufficient to convince them that
Louisianians have hearts as big and blood as pure
and red as any hearts and blood we have ever
heard of in history.
The companies that left were the Crescent Rifles
and the Second Company of the Battalion of Louis
lana Guards. We give the names of all who left
in the two companies, as follows:
