AT the Collation. given by the City Coun-

presided at one end Of the table and Mr..
Lambdin, Chairman of the Convention, at
the other, and from what We can CLEAN
from our bayou City exchanges it was
really "a feast of reason and flow of soul"
The Times says:
"Aftcr the usual ceremony Of in
production, the whole party sat
down to an oyster and champagne
supper, which it is unnecessary to
say was dispatched with tho alacri-
ty for which editors are so proven
bal. Toasts were drank to the fu-
ture greatness of Houston and Gal
weston; the success of the great en-.
terprise now on foot; tho Ship
Channel and the New Orleans Rail
road the country press of the
State. The ladies were not forgot
ten, and their health was drank in a
bumper.
THE best of feeling prevailed
throughout tho supper, and after a
toast to the host Of the Enterprise,
E. L. Bremond, embracing the
thanks of the Convention for his
generous offer TO the editorial fra
ternity in opening the Old Capitol
for them. the party left for their re-
spective homes"
