which they did ample Justice.
A procession was then formed,
and paraded through the priuci
pal streets OF the Town which
were lined with visitors, and rel,
dered enchanting 10y the bevies
of fair women, whose charms
were surpassed only by the hand
some bouquets and flowers with
which they were decorated. An
unfortunate occurrence however
malred the happiness that, other
wise rendered the day pleasant
and agreeable. Mr.. Taylor La
garde, Il member of Protector Fire
Go. No. 2. of Thibodaux, acting
as Marshal of that company, was
thrown from his horse and had
his leg broken. Dr. Blanchard, at

UNCLE SILAS.
Mr.. Armant of whom me

ton was made in the last Issue
of this paper will give all enter
tainment to morrow at 6 O'Clock
P. NJ, in Warerley Hall. This gen

He is a native OF the Parish of
st. James, and has been engaged
in journalism for a number of
years, both in America and in
France, as correspondent of the
leading journals i'll Paris, St. Pet
