ALL Souls DAY.-The different cemeteries
were tbronged, yesterday, with all classes and
coIors of people. The orphans from the asylums,
clad in their best but still reminding one of the

Young and old ladies', clad in the finest silks,
and others in soberer raiment, all turned their
steps towards the buryiDg grOond" Most went
to pay the annual tribute TO the dead the lesser
portion TO show their beauty in the very recep-
iacle TO which we must all come at last.
The different tombs of distinguished personages
and of prominent societies were beaufifuly ad-
orned. Those OF Governor Allen, Albert sidney
Johnston and other heroes OF the dead Confedera-
I cy were heaped with bouquets and wresths OF
laurel. In every portion of each cemetery were
to be seen the tender remembrances of the living
for the loved ones that had gone before.

rous. the visitors being not only from the interior
parishes and the neghboring States, but from the

show marked increase of business, and there is
every reason to hope than an active season awaits

great man, who loved Louisiana with woman'i
devotion, has been marked out by the ladies o

care. There is not a blade of grass which springs
| up around the spot that is allowed to grow the
dropping flowers and the fading festoons ar;
weekly replaced by fresh ones; and the true hearted
women, for whom Gov. Allen confronted death
| on many bloody fields, always on horseback, II
| the van OF the attack or the rear OF the retreat
| heu remember the sacrifices, che bravery and tne
maenanimity of the hero. With the women o

they strew upon bis grave.
How sleep the brave who sink to rest,
With all their country's wishes blest?"
