Eg This has been a season O

EY This has been a season Of
storms. On Monday night last, we
were visited with one Of fearful vio-
leace-made up of thunder and light
hing, wind and rain, and lasting for
nearly a couple Of hours, when ii
cleared away, leaving the atmosphere
delightfully."- cool and pleasant. Capt.
Hustled, of the "HaII place." one
mile below town, informs US that the
wind blew down bis cane shed and
gin house, making complete wreck
of them. Our confrere of the Sugar
Planter, in West Baton Rouge, in.
formed us that the storm swept over
that parish with great violence, level.
ing garden and other fences over there
but doing no other serious damage.

OFFICIAL REMovAL.-Lewis Power
Esq, clerk of the Fifth District
Court of New Orleans, has been re-
moved, from his office by order Of
Gen. Sheridan. The Times says !:
The charge brought against the
official removed is issuing illegal
certificates of naturalization" Mr..
Power sets up as defence that if the
documents referred to are illegal Le
was unaware of the fact that bis
superior officer, the judge of the
court, instructed him differently, and
furthermore satisfied, over his own
signature, that each and every one
sis in accordance with the provisions
of the law" The friends Of Mr..
Power feel confident that in this
matter he was innocent of any pre-
meditated infringement Of law.

MAY CELEBRATION. There was very
large asse bage of ladies and gentlemen
at Readvila Seminary on Tuesday even
ing last to witness the beautiful and inter-
esting ceremonies attending the ooron alton
and installation of a May Queen. Every
preparation had been made for the COM
fort and enjoyment of the numerous young
ladies who actively participated in the
joyous scenes enacted and also Of the
friends and patrons Of tho school who
came to feast their eyes upon the charming
spectacle. The premises were brilliantly
illuminated and tsstefully decorated
Bright emblems of the floral real over
hung in gay lestoons the spacious gallery
wherein was reared The throne, and bright
eyes and graceful forms made redolent the
post OF honor with animation and beauty.
The amiable and lovely Miss Ella k
was chosen Queen and a. the worthy in
cumbent OF 80 proud distinction, was
made the recipient of profuse reverence
and attention At the hands OF her amiable
maids of honor and liege and loving sub
jects. Right well did she sustain the regal
dignity.
The coronation exercises we're beautiful.
The address to the Queen and her response
thereto, were characterized by elegance Of
dicton and felicity of style, IS indeed,
were the numerous other addresses, take
them altogether, which were elected on
the occasion. The interludes of music in
which a number of the young ladies took
part, gave evidence of high order OF vo-
cal talent, rejecting great credit upon
their own proficiency and the superior pro-
fessional skill of their teacher-Mrs. J. b.
Henderson we must not omit to
menton-was also in attendance and pre-
sided with her accustomed ability at the
piano.
We regret that we have not the time for
more carefully prepared and extended
notice of this, one Of the most notable and
agreeable May celebrations that has ever
tson W witnessed III ear city.

HUSBAND IN THE WRoNG.-A
fashionable young married woman
recently eloped from her husband in
New York, in company with "dear
Montague" She thus throws the
entire responsibility on the bereaved
husband:
Do you remember, darling, the
evening we had those charming
cbarades at Mrs. Brady's Nbe land
lady of the boarding house), in which
the Tyrant was played; persona
fed bride, and my dear Montague
the bridegroom; and then you did
the horrid rant by tearing about the
stage and reciting a stupid piece of
dreadful French poetryl How could
you take the part of Gessler, while
my own Montague took that Of the
noble William Telll Oh! | shall
never forget how splendid be looked,
with his pants turned up to the top
of his boots, and my red opera cloak
and plumed riding hat on his head.
Oh how glorious was the burst of
sentiment when his manly voice de-
clared he would die for his country.
My whole soul was filled with ad-
miration, and then and there | de,
termined / should be bis and only
his. Why did you take such a
ridiculous part as Cock Robin in the
"Babes in the Wood"-you looked
so silly hopping about the stage with
two feather brushes in your coat tail
pocket2
Wherein, the correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette makes the fol-
lowing judicious reflection:
This should be warning to young
men, who ought not to take ridicu.
lous parts in charades if their lady
loves are also Economically disposed.
William Tell is certainly more sub
lime than Cock Robin

meeting in our city on Tuesday last,
with Capt. r. Il. Durham, who at

won for him their grateful respect

The Festival Of Yesterday.

Punctual to appointment, the
knights in armor" made their
appearance yesterday at the Fair
Grounds and went through their
fitting exercises in beautiful style.
There was a large concourse of
ladies and gentlemen present to
witness their performances, and to
listen to the eloquent speech of
our young friend, Alex. Dalshsimer,
whose mastery effort opened the
ceremonies and obtained for him
the need Of unbounded praise and
acknowledgment.
The gay cavalcade as they rode
down the lists and assumed the posi-
tions assigned them, and afterwards
when engaged in generous rivalry
in their knightly contests, presented
a panorama Of pleasing interest and
excitement.
There was much fine display Of
horsemanship, and several of the
knights managed with admirable
precision the feat of thrustipg the
lance while under full speed, SO as
to displace the suspended ring.
Mr.. /. A. Gallaugher came off the
victor, although the contest was very
close between himself and Messrs.
Henry Larguier and Abner L. Dun
can. These young gentlemen are
all Of this city.
An abundant repast, served up
in Barbecue" style, followed the
equestrian exercises. We noticed
upon some of the refreshment tables
several large and splendid cakes pre-
sented to the Ladies' Benevolent AS
ISOLATION by the captains of the
steamer Magenta, r. e. Lee and La
fourche; and one, the largest and
most elegant Of all, from the Confec-
tionary establishment of Mr.. Ste
phens, of this city, was an object Of
no small attraction.
The music from the "Blind Band"
led by Prof. Bonning, helped TO give
inspiriting effect to the occasion.
We regret that we were compelled
to leave the ground at an hour which
prevented us from witnessing the
festival to its close, and that the lit
tie time left us, (amid the various
calls of pleasure and duty, prevented
us from making out more than the
hurried and imperfect report given
above, of the proceedings connected
with this memorable occasion.

Plain TarIx to Farmers.

! The Hon. JAMES w. WALL, of New Jer-
sey, has written an Interesting article,
/ headed as above, to- the Farnaed7sd -Fireside
from which we extract as foliows:zss
1.-THE legislation of the past has done
comparatively very little for the agricul-
tural interests of the States. This omission
has mainly grown out of the neglect and
Indifference Of the classes most injured by
1t. The past you can not redeem; but the
future is with you, the men of the plow, the
men OF toll, the cultivators of the soil you
own; you can. with the awakened power
which has SO long slumbered within you,
mould and shape, and direct the future
legislation of our States as you choose.
The hammer of Odin is in your hands, and
as the stroke of that of the Teutonic my
thology is said to have produced convul-
sions on the earth's surface, so political
power in your grasp, il welded in high
and holy purpose, will shake terribly the
inert, useless legislation which has so long
cursed our States. When L think of your
numbers in the land, your immense power
in every township and district, honestly
believe that by perfect concentration Of
action, your strength would be greater than
all the industrial pursuits combined. But
now your power seems to be like the ele-
piant in the menagerie. The politicians
use you and abuse-they pierce you with
sharp goads, and ride upon your trunks
with impunity. Whereas, if you were now
only once fully alive to the fact of your
real power, how you could crush them at a
single blow, or trample them as dust be-
meath your feet!i i* - Now, upon
you, the farmers of the country, depends a
correction of the evils that have thus grown
up in the legislative history of the country.
Crafty politicians call you the bone and
sinews of the land, and you are to them all
this, for they make you the hewers of the
wood and the drawers of the water, to as
sist in all their sehemes.n Eti- w. ttH = ~

Wedding in Buff
falOs

Gen. FL. L. Burnet, of Cincinnati. was
married in Buffalo to Miss Sarah 6. Lam
sing. of that city. The Courier of yesterday
says:
'sThe church was densely filled with the
elite of the city long before noon, the hour
named for the nuptials. Carpets were
stretched from the vestibule to the curb,
and over this trOd the hundreds who came
in carriages. A very few minutes after
noon came the familiar buzz which Invari-
ably announces the entrance of the bridal
patty. There were eight couples of ofgrooms-
men and bridesmaids. First moved up the.
ai>le. Miss Strong, OF Buffalo, on the arm
of Mr.. Buckingham, of Cleveland, follow
ed by Miss Greenman, also of Buffalo, es-
corted by Col Dennison-son of Gov.
Dennison, of Ohio; Miss Tibbals, of Erie,
with Col. Treat, formerly of Gen. Scho-
fields staff; and Miss Chester, of this city,
escorted by Col. Dayton, of Gen. Sher-
mans staff. These couples ranged them
selves in the open space between the seats
and the balustrade which cncloses the
cbancel. They were followed by Miss Ar
mold, OF New York city, escorted by Mr.
Livingston Lansing; Miss Augusta Foote,
OF Washington. with Mr.. Charles Lansing;
Miss Mary Foote, of Washington, on the
arm of General Fearing, of General Sheri-a
dams staff, and Miss Beech, of Troy, es-1
corted by General Fullerton, of Southern
Investigation fame. This last quartette of
The bridesmaids all wore white-lace dress
es with trains that reminded one of the
days OF Queen Elizabeth. Four OF the
ladies wore peplums OF white satin, and
four peplums OF coiored satin, the colors,
which were lemon, light blue, emerald
green and cherry, alternating with the
palmer white. The effect was almost as
beautiful as those who produced it, as the
audibly expressed admiration of the fair
portion of the audience testified.
Following the last couple, came the
groom, supporting the mother of the bride,
and last the bride herself, on the arm of
her father. Her dress was of rich white
velvet, with bertha and trimmings of ele-
CANT point lace, and tulle veil. A spray of
orange blossoms adorned her hair, in
which the bride differed from the maids,
their coifuYes being plain.
Theaimpressive ceremony of the Episco-
pal Church was solemnly spoken by the
Rev. DR.. Ingersoll, and the benediction
pronounced by Bishop Coke. 1
