the House to adjourn to attend his funeral. A
single objection would prevent It's being intro.

to withdraw the objection. He persisted until

The GREAT MEETNG.-The programme of
the great Democratic ratification meeting,
next Saturday night, on Lafayette square, is
to be found in another column. All true citi-
gems of the United States, now in this city,
should give the occasion their heartiest sup
port. If those great men, Seymour and Blair,
should be elected in November-and what
man In his right mind can doubt the fact for
an instant Pit will be celebrated with bon
fires and Examinations, with copious, gushing
tears of rejoicing by the whole nation, as the
era of our regeneration, and the guarantee of
our liberation from thraldom and injustice.
From the enthusiasm with which the propo-
sition of a grand meeting and torchlight pro-
cession has been received by all classes of our
population, We have nc hesitation in predict
ing that the Democratic demonstration on
Saturday evening will be by far the most mag
nifcent and imposing one ever witnessed in
the Queen City of the South.
Many of our friends propose still further
to blazon the celebration by illuminating the
ALPHABETICALLY those buildings, public as
well nc private, along tho route to be tokor, by
the procession. We earnestly hope this sug-
gestion will be universally adopted. The
whole country will soon be in blaze of fer
yor for the great champions of the Demo-
crazy, and New Orleans should take the lead
in honoring them, as in them she beholds the
gallant men who are to rescue her and her
people from the misery and misrule under
which they have suffered since 1862.
Let us have torchlights and illuminations
by all means on Saturday evening next.

The LONDON Press OF TIE DEMocRATIo NOMI-

Democrat may well doubt If Seymour can defeat

The News says defeat is certain TO follow the
selection of so weak a candidate as Seymour.
The Herald treats the coming contest q fore

ularity would elect him in any event.
