lHE MELlISa LAST NIGHT.

The ST. Charles Theater was crowded last
night with an enthusiastic multitude of citi-
zens, in response TO the invitation of the
Democratic State Central Committee. Rarely,
perhaps never before, has New Orleans wit
messed so intelligent and so numerous
political assemblage; and this fact is auspi-
cious Of a revival of hope in the promises of
the future, and of an awakening from the
gloom and dependency in which this popu-
lation have been plunged for the last two
years. 1t is not that they receive any imme-
date exit from the labyrinth of difficulties by
which they are surrounded; but they do fore
see the approaching overthrow of the party
Of despotism and of barbarism, and the
proximate triumph of the party Of con-
stitutional liberty. The peculiar
significance of this meeting is the
resuscitation, among our people, of an inter-
est in general politics, and the manifestation
of profound desire to aid the great Demo-
cratic party of the country in the impending
struggle with radicalism. 1t is very sugges-
tive that every reference to that party, and to
the successes which it has recently achieved,
called forth tumultuous applause whilst
the names OF Andrew Johnson, General
Hancock and General Steedman were
greeted with prolonged and enthusiastic
cheers. There was nothing of a sec
tional character in the meeting. There was
nothing said that could indicate the existence
Of a sectional feeling on the contrary, the
intensest yearnings of the popular heart
seemed TO be directed towards the Demo-
crazy Of the country, and especially of the
North.
1t is certain that good results will follow
from this meeting. The voice of New Or
leans will be heard and echoed throughout
the State. The example will act on the peo-
pie in the interior, and an organization will
be inaugurated, by means of which we may
hope to achieve such victory as that which
has been gained by our brethren in Ala
bama.

CHARACTERISTICs OF THE ST. CHARLES De-
MoEsTBATIoN.-We have attended many public de-
monstratiOns in this city, but we have never been
at one where the people were more thoroughly
concerned, or showed more intense interest in
all that took place. 1t was not the ordinary Gro wd
which attends political demonstrations in public.
We saw there gentlemen whom we never saw be-
fore at public meetings in New Orleans. They
were earnest and deeply interested spectators and
listeners. The spectacle showed to what depth
the popular heart has been stirred how much DO
liticsl vitality still exists among our people, not
withstanding all their wrongs and expressions, and
how eager and anxious they are to do what they
can 10 preserve whatever is possible of political
liberty and civil rights.
The speech OF ex-senator Weller was forcible,
sensible, strong, practical, and frequently stimu.
lBtiye Of the widest enthusiasm of the audience.
Col. Yerger most eloquently represented the gal.
lantry and patriotism Of our sister State Mississippi
and spoke with a fervOr and fire that made great
impression upon the assembly. There was a
unanimous verdict of approval for the very elo
quent and logical speech of Mr.. Jonas, whose
good sense is so well set forth by the fecitous
language in which be clothes his thoughts; white
the concluding address by Col. Smallwood was
just what was expected from a gallant federal
officer magnanimous enough TO accord to his late
foes every thing that his sound patriotism AMI good
sense teach him Is due TO an oppressed and suffer-
ing people.

NAV ORLEANS STEAMSHIP COMPANY.

We have often advocated in our columns
the necessity of encouraging, by every posi-
bic means, the most intimate commercial re-
lations with the gulf ports and the Atlantic
coast. The prosperity Of New Orleans is in
no small degree dependent upon establishing
those relations on permanent basis. The
merchant, the real estate owner, the me-
chanic, the planter and the laborer are alike
interest in such an enterprise.
1t is for this reason that we are gratifed in
finding that views which we have so con-
stantly advocated have assumed practical
shape in the incorporation of the New Or
leans Steamship Company. The object of
this association is to place in the gulf and
Atlantic coast trade two or more steamers,
which shall be owned and controlled in New
Orleans, and made to subserve the CONNER
cial interests of her people and of those who
trade with her, From the published charter
it will be seen that the present board of con-
troll consists of some of our most prominent
and public-spirited citizens-M. j. Smith,
VIM. Creevy, John Pemberton, J. Armstrong
and j. McCloskey. Capt. Edward Higgins
has been selected as the first manager of the
company His long experience in the con-
troll of merchant steamers, as well as his
naval experience, fully justifes the choice
which has been made.
As every class of the community will be
benefited by the success Of such an enter
prise, we hope that all, to the extent of their
ability, will subscribe to the stock without de-
lay and assure the success of a company the
want Of which has so long been felt.
