The Demonstration Saturday Night.

In our account of the grand demonstration on
Saturday evening it was impossible to note every
incident worthy Of note. We accidently omitted
mention Of that staunch section OF the Crescent
City White League, Company l, commanded by
that laborious worker, Capt. ]. r. s. Selleck
This section numbered one hundred men in
| ranks.
In the illuminations there were many tastefully
decorated residences, which it was impossible to
notice. On Carondelet street the school OF Mrs.
Stamps was thrown open and lights burning at
| every window. Above, Mr.. 0. 8. Babcock made
display of fireworks, and Mr.. James Cousiey
served the thirsty with water as they passed by.
The residence of Capt. I. T. feathers was bril-
liant in flood Of light.
Among others worthy Of mention and which
was unavoidably crowded out Of our Sunday
edition the building No. 100 Canal street, &C.
cupied by Messrs. Kain& Co. This building was
illuminated and dcccratkd in the most tasteful
and artistic manner, under the management OF
that ever courteous and esteemed gentleman, MIR.
Warren C. Kahn, who spared no pains or expense
in making the display worthy Of the occasion.
In such large parade as that of Saturday
night, the lar gest turn out that has ever taken
place in this city, it was impossible to give due
and proper notice to all the organizations partici-
pating, and we now propose to make amends as
far as is within our power for all omissions and
errors in our account Of Sunday morning.
