Upon the lily found,
And make such butter as viii sell
For thirty cent? a pound.

DEMOCRATIC RAr1FrcAr1oN MEETING

DEMoCRATIC RATIFICATION MEETING.
NEW ORLEANS, July 1S.-A mass meeting
Tor the ratification of the Democratic Presi-
dental nominations was held this evening, and
was probably the largest ever assembled in
LOUISIANA. Lafayette square and the streets in
the vicinity were densely packed. The Vice
Presidents numbered 300 of the most sub stan
ual and respectable citizens of the CITY, The
resolutions were eminently patriotic and con-
sentative, fully endorsing the platform and
nominations of the New York convention. and
pledging the support of the Louisiana Democ-
racy were adopted. The fourth resolution re-
peals the words of the platform that secession
and slavery are dead and beyond the power of
any man anywhere to revive. The other reso-
buttons condemn the constitution under which
the State OF Louisiana is now received into
the Union, and the authorities now exercis-
ing powers in having been imposed upon
the State in violation of the Federal
Constitution, by the exercise of absolute au-
thorlty; that we look with interest and alarm
on the course pursued by the Legislature now
sitting; express gratitude for President John
sons efforts in their behalf; they address
themselves TO the intelligent colored people of
the State, towards whom they have none but
feelings OF kindness; cite the recent election
In mississippi as an instance of what can be
done by proper course toward the negro non.
ulation rf-
"A resolution was adopted in communication
OF the course pursued by the officers and SOL
dIers OF the United States army towards the
ciuIeHs curing the late administration of the
military authorities in this State, and tending
their heartfelt acknowledgements for the uni
form disposition in regard to the citizens of
this State as brothers rather than subjects of
vindictive oppression.
The streets in the vicinity of LAFAYETTE
square and all along the route of the process
sion was brilliantly illuminated and thronged
with people. The procession was over half a
hour In passing the telegraph office.
