A Cav Triumph and a Kellogg Fiasco.

On Sunday, the day of good deeds,
of righteous causes, in spite Of the
heavy rain our town was alive and
filled with an eager crowd who were
awaiting the arrival of Hon. Edward
J. Gay, and other distinguished
orators, who finally entered our
burgh, heralded by the Abbev'lle
Brass Band and the rending huzzas
of the crowd. At three P. NJ, the
distinguished visitors accompanied
by the Hon. Adrien Nnnez, Lastie
Broussard and a large -6oncourse Of
citizens repaired to the Court House
where the meeting was called to
order by W. B. White, Esq, and
Mr., Lastie Broussard was unani-
mously appointed president OF the
meeting and L. G. Lyons secretary.
The Hon. E. J. Gay was then in
troduced to the meeting, and greeted
with great cheering and stirring
music /; his remarks were of a sensi
BILE nature and practical nature and
without any attempt at oratory
clearly demonstrated thatit was time
that interested representative mer
should be sent to Congress, men
whose every interest was with the
people.
He was followed by Gen. F. T
Nichols, as the hero of many battles
the model governor, the MANNED bu'
undaunted son Of Louisiana rose
the frantic cries of the crowd ane
the notes of sweet music, rent thu
air and fairly shook the building
We would not attempt a minute
synopsis Of his patriotic address. bu
suffice it to say that it breatbee
throughout those high toned feeling
of unsclfsh love Of country, which
has made him the idol of the people
Next came Mr.. l.. A. Martinez tn
talented young Editor Of the Stan
dard who ably exposed the turpitnd'
Of Kellogg and his minious. Her

Bridport.

The farmers of this town are very busy
when the clouds permit with their hay
ing. Some are still in the midst of that
employment. Others are nearly through.
The yield is not large, but of very fine
quality. Other crops are not very prom
ising, especially corn and potatoes. The
drought and the cold have combined to
dwarf most spring-planted grain. The
present prospect of corn hereabouts is
exceedingly slim. If July is the month
for corn, the first half of it is a failure.
1t may seem to others rather late to
notice a Fourth of July celebration, -
two weeks after the event occurred; but
mistake has caused the delay. The
writer of this supposed that another de-
signed to send an account of such an
event which took place in BridpOrt on
that ever-eventful anniversary. A picnic
was held in the grove of L. w. Fletcher,
and quite a large number of the good
people of the town, of all ages and sizes
assembled at an early hour, laden with
those things which always please the
'rising generation" After ample Justice
had been done to the eatables, by both
old aud young, and all seemed satisfied
with the provision for the body. the as
sembl5ge was called to order, and the
Middlebury band treated the music-lov-
ing to specimen of their playing; after
which the venerable Prosper Eltharp
read the 'Declaration of Independence, y
to the few who would listen-in very
forcible and distinct manner, entering
into the spirit of the document much
more than many professional readers
Judge Knapp of Middlebury was then in
troduced and delivered an unusually per-
tinent address for such an occasion: and
he delivered it in manner at once simple
and impressive. While he made no at
tempt at the usual display of oratory,
every word seemed to be in the right
place, and very few, if any, that were
superfluous. But it was a matter of re-
gret. that the younger portions of the as
semblage, and for whom it was evidently
especially designed seemed more intent
on having good time" visiting, than
in listening to a recital of the events that
led to the establishment of this great Re
public, and the responsibilities which
rest. or soon will rest, upon them as citi-
zens of it. 1t should be said in this con-
nection that some ten or twelve of the
children of the schools entertained the
people after the address with very
clear and distinct recital of some veiy
pretty pieces which they had prepared
for the occasion, doing Justice to them
selves and their teachers, and giving good
promise for their future.

ILL.,, has gone thence to Clifton, Arizona,
where he has the head clerkship in a
copper-mining company store at good
salary.
Hay through the town on the upland
meadows is very light generally. but on
the low lands it is rather more than an
average. Corn and potatoes are, of
course, suffering because of the extreme
dry weather. George Swinington. how
ever, has some large fields of corn that
look very promising. He plows in a
large amount of manure, from which to-
gether with liberal supply of concen-
trated manure, he of course must receive
good results.
The Brandon Lime and Marble COM
pany have finally finished their lime
kiln. After some three months labor the
company have a very fine-looking kiln,o
an improved pattern. The theory is
good; practically it remains to be seen
whether the company will burn more
lime with less wood We hope so. We
understand that nearly or quite $1,000 has
been expended. They intend soon to
erect large shed for wood and for the
lime as it is drawn from the kiln to cool
previous to its being taken to the cars.
