Our New Packet.

Though cramped for space this is
sue of the DEMOCRAT, we cannot fore
go The pleasure and qualification OF
giving q condensed account of the
launching of Captain Dick sinnott's
new boat, the Jesse K. Bell. We
extract it from the Courier Journal
of the 7th:
The new side-whecl passenger stca-
mer, Jesse K. Bell, Capt. Dick Sinnott,
was successfully launched from the
ways at Towards ship-yard yesterday
afternoon at 5 o'clock. A more de-
lightful evening for the exciting occa-
sion could not have been set apart, and
no less than 5000 people were present
to enjoy it. She is Il model of dura-
bility, beauty and grace. Her hill is
225 feet long, forty -one feet wide over
all; depth of hold, forward and aft,
eleven feet, and amidships eight feet.
She is tho largest and finest boat ever
built for the New Orleans and Grand
Ecore trade since 1853, and will, 10
doubt, create a "hig sensation" among
the people and patrons along "od
Red" when she makes her first trip up
that noted stream. The cabin is all up
and few boats were ever SO far COM
pleted upon the ways that were
launched so successfully. The boat
set sixty feet above the level of the
river, with her stem $50 feet from tho
water. The elevation being steep, her
flight stern foremost was rapid but
graceful, and she shot like locomo
tive from the high bank into the river
amid the cheers and waving of hand
kerchiefs of thousands upon shore, and
500 people, mostly ladies, who were on
board, and enjoyed the delightful and
exciting sensation of boat launch.
Just as the beautiful craft baptized her
bow in the water, Miss Carrie Wool
folk. of this city, daughter of Captain
R. FL. Voolfolk, gracefully and heroic
ally christened the new steamer "'Jesse
K. Bell" Her maids of honor upon the
occasion were Miss Maggie Gallagher,
of New Orleans, Miss Lizzie Wood,
Miss Carrie Cochran and Miss Lizzie
Loving of this City.

THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES.

1t is with unfeigned pleasure that
we run up to our Democratic mast
head, in this issue Of our Journal,
the Democratic ticket nominated at
Baton Rouge at its recent conven-
tion. The ticket is headed by Louis
Alfrd Wilt, q native Louisianian,
and one who has filed all his trusts
with hon, and one ''that SANDER nor
calumniation can not find one soft
spot in his armor." From the DEM
ocRAT's masthead, in its past career
and championship of Dcmocracy's
nominees, the honorcd names of
Isaac Johnson, Joseph Walker, Paul
0. Hebert, Robert G. Wickliffe, Tho,
mas 0. Moore, and Henry W. Allen,
have been supported as heads Of the
different Democratic tickets, and
more recently that of Francis L. Nj
cholls, and all Of these have led the
way to victory and crowned our eff
forts with success. With the same
feelings of pride and Democratic fe-
atty which led us to the support of
these honored and trusted Demo
Gratis, we now raise aloft the name Of
Louis Alfred Witt, and will battle
for it with the same feryor, the same
good will and with the same prestige
of success, which has crowned all
our humble efforts in behalf Of our
dear and consistent party.
