,
gushed galIantry, were Of course present, to pay
the last tribute of respect to one Of the best Off
GERS and one of the most fearless soldiers that
New Orleans sent to the fed, and for whose loss
she now mourns.
A large number Of the members Of other late
military organizations were present to do honor to
the dead Amongst the pail bearers we noticed
General Harry 7, Hays, Colonel Vincent, and Maj.
John II, New.
The funeral discourse in the cemetery was deliv-
cred by the Reverend Father Hubert, chap
lain Of the late Ist Louisiana regiment. 1t was
more than usually eloquent and pathetic
The reverend clergyman had known
Capt D'Aquin in the peaceful pursuits Of
life and in those later times that tried mems souls
He knew the noble soldier, as he said, to be ter
rible 10 war and mild and meek in peace" Could
there be more honorary epttaph written?
The remains Of Capt. D'Aquin were consigned
to their last resting place, after the impressive
prayers and ceremonies that the Catholic Church
proscrbas for such solemn occasions.
! PLEASURE GATHERGXG.-We were honored
with an Invitation to attend special gathering Of
the pupils of the Madison school, which took
place evening before last. Under the auspices Of
the accomplished and esteemed principal, Mrs.
Annie sheean and her valued assistants, the pu-
pis distinguished themselves as much for graceful
department and kind hospitality as they recently
did for intellectual requirements.
| THE ST. JosEPHs ScHooL IN JEFFERSON Cry
We deeply regret that important engagements
/ prevented US from attending the distribution of
/ premiums at the second annual examination Of
the ST. Josephs School, in Jefferson City, on
| Tuesday last. The presence Of that excellent
! preate, Arbishop Odin, was, of itself, sufficient
| to say how deserving of public interest were the
| exerc ses. From the reports Of those who We're
present, we feel authorized to say that it is very
seldom scholastic training passes through severe
ordeal with such success as was awarded on this
occasion. Parents were highly gratiied, and all
present realized that in the st. Josephs School
have an institution where every talent and every
virtue is cultivated.

sent this association: Major j. &. Austin, Captain
James Lingan, Captain George Norcom.
THE ROBERTSON STREET GIRLS ScHooL.-The
school, took place yesterday. large number OF
spectators, almost entirely ladies, were present.
The exercises consisted Of recitations, dialogues
and singing. Miss Armstrong, the principal of the
school, and her assistants have reason to be proud
of their pupils. In reading, in elocution, and in
vocalization, they showed excellent training. We
have the names of those who performed on the
occasion, but doubling the propriety of putting
A.
vanity, even the most deserving are withheld from
publication in these columns. Mr.. Rogers, tht
superintendent, present, and in a very happy
style addressed the children, melting them to stu
dious exertion.
FREs.-A one-story frame building on St
Philippe street, between Dauphine and Burgundy
