levee Friday evening, and it probably
would have been there yet had not wagon
passed that way and mashed all the sound
and fury out of it.
WANTED. -Miguel, who keeps the lake
end Phoenix, and the Phoenix, which keeps
Miguel, have an ardent desire to view the
manly form of G. NJ. Leininger, alias G. NJ
Long, who is good at keeping other things
than books. Nearly $500 disappeared at
the time when Long came short, and Miguel
thinks that sum of money is too much to
paw to find out what man is.
In looking around for place to go to
to-day do not forget the Hibernia festival
on the Fair Grounds, and Andy Parle will
be there with all the chicken fxiDgs apper-

b. A NEW CLUB ORGANIzED.-On Thursday
evening last a club composed of men of
Irish birth was organized in the third ward
bv the election of the following officers:
President, Thomas H. DAILY; first vice presi-
dent, Thomas Moran; second vice presi-
dent, A. ]. Davern; third president, j. j.
Pendergrast recording secretary, T. M.
Kavanagh; corresponding secretary, S. I.
Pierce; treasurer, Thomas Lynne. The
club was organized to conform to the ideas
of the subjOined circular:
To the Irishmen of the third ward and of the city
Of New Orleans, and State Of Louisiana:
In the political campaign of 1872 the
question of nationality has assumed prom
inent position, hitherto unknown in Ameri-
can politics And while American citizens
of alien birth or foreign parentage have
been forming organizations with view to
the personal good, not of the people at
large, but of certain classes, no Orgsniza-
ton has yet been formed or now
exists among American citizens of Irish
birth or parentage, and in the
State of Louisiana, out of the num-
Der of foreign born population,
two-thirds are of Irish birth, proportion
which may reasonably expect and demand
adequate and equitable ErecOgnitiOn and
representation mall the affairs OF national,
State and municipal government. There
fore, we, the undersigned citizens of the
United States and of the State Of Louisiana,
of Irish. birth and parentage, in no factlOus
spirit, but impelled by the action Of others
and by the results of their combination, and
believing that " in union there is strength"
form ourselves into a united body, and shall
endeavor to carry into effect anything
which will be to the advancement OF the
people.
Members and many "hired men" in the
Democratic turnout last night drank freely
at our free fountains, and they were vel
come to the beverage. Our Isaac yesterday
placed new cups under the faucets, but he
chained them as securely as possible.
The front of the St. Charles Hotel was
pfettily illuminated last night, and the
Greeley and Brown transparency was con
spicuous. Not a club passed that did not
give three rousing cheers for Greeley and
Brown.
There were more Greeley and Brown
transparencies in the procession last night
than there were McEnery signs. Greeley
is a good old soul to fall back on when men
are wanted for a grand procession. 1t helps
to fill up the ranks, you know.
As the procession last night passed up st.
Charles street, and opposite the hotel, Cap

twenty-five weak looking men, sandwiched
between two sections Of the Broom Rangers,
gave the word to sound three cheers for the
Democratic nominees. Such conduct is IN
becoming, to say the least, in a gentleman
who was one of the first to urge the COlum-
bus Legion to sign for Greeley and Brown
and the Liberal party. He is apparently a
fair specimen Of the genus topper.
Having discovered that he could not pull
the best strength of the Legion with him to
flop, he changed front almost alone, and
to-day he has no influence whatever with
the Italian element in this city.
1t would have done Greeley's heart good
could he have seen the men parading last
night, and all of tlGm to vote for him next
election.
Dim paper lanterns last light illuminated
the building known as Murphy's Hotel, on
st. Charles street, while the procession was
passing.
LOOK OUT FOR THEM.
