| Presentations Of Flags, vreatils, etc, etc.
| Yesterday came along rainy ard dismal and
dampened the feelings of the town as well as its
! streets; Tor the greatest preparations had been
| made by the ffremen for the celebration of their
| twenty yfourth anniversary, and by the public at
large for a turnout to tile grand sight of the
| day. The hours rolled sluggshly by and the
spr1nkles and showers of rain frequent and
well kept up. that even the Fremen began to fear
distressing failure, and the subject of postpone
| ment came into general discussion as o consum
| nation devoutly to be wished" This matter was
SO seriously thought Of that the officers of the De-
partment decided upon postponing the celebration
should the weather not promise for the better by
II o'clock.
Luckily, at the hour of II the rain held up
and after few parting drizzes the clouds began
to break mp; at II there were glimmers of sun
shine; and at halfpast II the clouds were flying
six ways for Sunday, and the sun shining forth in
full glory. We never saw the town change its ap-
pearance so quickly. The few doubtful fire COM
panGs and the rain-defying crowds who had assem-
bled on Canal street, and fancied for time that
they only would be there, were in an hours time
lost sight of amid the thousands Of people that as
scmbled from all quarters and the rapidly assem-
bling fire companies
The long galleries Of Touro Row and the numer-
Gus other galleries and balconies of the grand
boulevard" flushed up as if by magic, with the
gala'day gorge of feminine beauty; and at noon,
(about the time the procession started) Canal
street was as crowded, beautiful, and glorious to
behold, as upon any similar occasion previously.
The streets included in the line of march were
almost as greatly crowded, at the same time In
short neither the firemen the town were in the
least cheated out Of the luxury Of beholding each
other, and the pleasure all the greater that
the wet morning had threatened to break up the
whole arrangement.
The fire companies never turned ont in brighter
guise than on this occasion. There were numerous
new features observable among which we NAV
mention the new hand engines, the first holiday
display of the steam engines and the extraordinary
beauty and taste Of some of the decorations Busi.
ness was visibly suspended in many parts of the
city, and the flags fIuttered in the breeze every-
where. Without further generalizing we shall
proceed with detail of the fire companies out
and of their appearance in
The Procession.
The procession was headed by Mr.. I. N. Marks
President of the Firemen's Charitable Association
and Grand Marshal of the day. with the other Off
Of The Association, all wearing heavy blue
scarfs, and on horseback. We may as we'll, in this
connection give the the list Of the Grand Marsha's
aids, each Of whom accompanied his particular
company in the line:

The Baton Rouge Advocate of Saturday last he
the following:

The Baton Rouge Advocate of Saturday last hes
the following:
We are assured on good authority that gang of
runaway negroes, about fourteen in number, are
depredatng almost with impunity on the pre- perty
of citizens living the eastern side OF the Connie
river in this parish. They have been frequently
in squads, some of them armed with shot guns,
and in one instance gun was put to the head OF a
white man by one of four negroes who emerged
from the bushes Just as the former was in the act
of securing one OF their comrades.
Two white men are with these negroes, both
armed with douhle-barreled guns, and doubtless are
the instgators of their thievng aud insolence. An
expedition is on foot to capture the whole party
The lberve Sentinel of Saturday last SAYS:
Within the last week the sward has again become
green, fruit trees have become fully in bloom fresh
leaves sproutiug from the evergreena the birds
sing more merry and all nature generally has
assumed more smiling and more cheerful as
pect. May the cruel frost not come to throw o
pail over natures oveliest scene.
The Baton Rouge Advocate of Saturday last has
the following:
On Thursday night week the house of Squire
James, in Livingston parish, was broken into by
two men, supposed to be a man named Washington
and his step.son, in search of plunder On knock
ing at the door Mr.. James went to open it, and was
Immediately fired upon, The ball taking effect in the
head and knocking Mr.. james down, but not
wounding him so severely as to prevent his getting
out of the house and concealing himself. Mrs.
James rushed to the door on hearing the shot, and
attempted to keep the murderers out but she re-
ceiyed a ball in the left side of the chest which
passed through her body, and left her senseess on
The floor. The villains then entered the house, and
after brusing her head horribly with Ratchet left
beE for dead. A little negro boy was lying on the
fd{or on blanket, and being awakened and
a,armed by the noise, began screaming for help,
when he was assaulted with the hatchet aud most
horribly mangled, having his head nearly split
open.
Having accomplished this, the murderers took
Sr. James trunks, carried them about hundred
yards from the house and broke them open. They
were deceived in their wishes, as the trunks con-
tanned only the family clothing.
The affair has created great excitement in the
parish, and besides the man Washington and his
step-son, two Others have been arrested on suspi.
con and lodged in jail. Strange to relate, none of
the wounded E0rIes are yet dead.

FIRE THIS MORNING.

At about quarter past O'Clock this morning
fire broke out in the fourth story Of the building
at the northwest corner Of Common and Caron-
delet streets, occupied below by Alex. Benneval,
stock and exchange broker, and above by NJ. D.
Cooper CO., cotton factors, and by the Offices
of other business men.
The tlremen were quickly on the ground with
their machines, and No. 7's steam engine was ther o
and as quickly at work as any. Luckily, water
was plenty. The fire was evidently the work Of an
ncendary, for it started in the top story, loft
where there is never excuse for fire.
Tee building belongs to Messrs. A. & NJ. Heine,
the bankers. When We left, the firemen had the
flames encompassed, and there no prospect of
the loss of anything further than the top story.

RECEPTION oE CEN. rMlans

<
This will be the event of to-day, and an event Of
noerdnary significance.
The perusal of this mornings telegraph news
will awaken the right feeling, and stimulate the
South, and especially Louisiana, to hold such men
as Gen. Twiggs at their true worth. Just such
men vilifed and maligned at the North let
the South stand to them, and yield them higher
honor and support than ever.
The official programme of the reception is pub
lished at length elsewhere. It will be seen that all
the high officers of the city and the State and the
State Convention in body, intend participating in
this reception, whilst the Invitation is held out to
all civic bodies. The military are called ont by
their respective commanders; and the reception
will be a grand one.
As we are crowded for room, we can only refer
our readers to the programme of the Committee
of Arrangements, which sets forth all the neces-
sary particulars.
