We pledge ourselves and the Republicans OF
this parish to their cordial support and tri-
umphant election.
On motion of some half dozen people the
entire audience of white and colored gave
three cheers for Judge w. b. Phillips, and
being again called to the stand he reviewed,
in his affable, forcible and eloquent style
of address, the grand and patriotic record
made by the party in standing by the
general government with an intiexible resO-
tuition: in carving forward profound meas
ures Of craftsmanship to successful issue;
the powerful aid given by it in finally over
throwing and prOstrating the most gigantic
rebellion of ancient or modern times, and
that its sympathy with the oppressed of
every cline, its record and principles should
command the respect and challenge the adj
miration of every candid man.
He smoke at length in reference to the

The Civil ssI.g.icvalty.

Numerous admirers OF that very clever
gentleman and ex-typo. iona {. White, Tor
the past seven years the efficient Deputy
Naval Officer Of this port. have suggested
him as proper candidate for the position
of Civil Sheriff of the parish and city. OF
New Orleans, at the approaching November
election.
We have long and favorably known Mr.
White, and take more than ordinary pleasure
in saying that no better nomination could
be made for the position for which he IL
named. 4 native OF the State. and equally
familiar with the French and English
languages. a practical business man, sober,
Jealous, and a full tledged Republican OF the
first wafer, are among his many CLAIMS Tor
positions of trust and honor from the great
national Republican party.
We repeat that the nomination OF MY
White for Civil Sheriff would be one OF the
strongest that could be made. rs 1t would
not only secure an undivided Repnhlican
support, but also secure many votes from
the ranks Of the opposition.
The delegates to the nominating conVen-
ton should thoroughly canvass MIR. "Mie :
claims before casting their votes.

Mass Meeting at the Glass WOrks.i

Shortly after twelve o'clock last Sunday
a large and highly respectable body OF citl-
zens assembled at the Glass Works for the
purpose of ratitying the proceedings OF the
State and Parish Conventions, and indorsing
their nominees: also to. express their APP
prevail of the policy OF the Chief Magistrate
of Louisiana. his Excellcncy Governor War
moth.
The meeting was called to order by the
President. Richard johnson, who success
siyely introduced the following gentlemen.
who had kindly consented to speak on the
occasion: Messrs. Alex. Dalsheimer. Gen
eral w. S. MIDGET, Major Louis +. Gran
ger and Captain Barrett.
Notwithstanding we had frequently
heard the several political questions of TIE
day thoroughly exhausted by various
speakers. we were deeply interested i'll the
discourse of Mr.. Dalsheimer. who impaired
a freshness even to the most threadbare
subjects that was truly remarkable. In
deed it is long since we had the pleasure to
hear so able IL political address, and the I'M
terrified Democracy, many OF whom we saw
in the crowd. must have telt dreadfully I'M
easy as the eloquent gentleman unvailed
the detormities and pointed out the weak
nesses of that rule or ruin party.
| General MIDGET spoke i'll his usual happy
| style and dealt many heavy, though not
| ill-natured blows at his political adver
| saries.
The address of. Major Granger was even
| more than his best friends and admirers had
expected, and We predict for him first
! place among orators should he pursue his
| present course.
Not the least notable feature of the pro
ceedincs was the stirring address of Cap
| tain Barrett, who il not only an earnest and
| interchangeable worker in athe Republican
ranks. but a much better orator and more
| profound thinker, than most OF the great
| lights OF that party which aflirms the
| coloIed man is lacking in intelligence.
| The following resolutions, introduced b!
| General Mudgett, were unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, We. the Republicans OF Gretna
| feeling the most unbounded confidence IL
| the executive OF this State do cordially IL
dorse him and pledge him cur hearty an'
undived support.
ResolrcF. That as the nominations nad'
| by the State and Parish Conventions are
highly acceptable to ts. we pledge the nom
! inees our earnest and uuequiTocai support
Resoired. That a vote OF thanks be ten
dered To the president and secretary OF TIL
meeting, and that these resolutions be pub
| lishcd in the New Orleans REPUBLICAN.
