Next Thursday will be the anniver-

the North this day is reckoned one of
the greatest of the year, and is cele-
DRAFTED by the firing of cannon and the
explosion of all sorts of combustibles
by all sorts of people, old and young,
rich and poor. The day is not so gem
orally observed in the South, but it is
to be hoped that at least few pat
riotic individuals in Donaldsonville
will explode some gunpowder in hon
or of the day that saw the Americans
throw off the yoke of Great Britain

WHO has practiced Il vice SO long that

he pursues because he feels a great

to it; but reaching it, knows that it
will gnaw his heart and make him
roll himself in the dust with anguish.
