The excursion given by the Breaux
Bridge L. and g. Association, from this
place TO New Orleans, last week, was a
success in every sense Of The word. The
train departed with about one hundred
excnrsionists, and their numbers were
increased at every station on the road
until the Crescent City was reached,
when the number counted nearly one
thousand. The whole affair. from the
start to the end, was most admirably
managed, and nothing was left nndone
by the gentlemanly managers that
would tend f0the comfort and pleasure
of their patrons. We congratulate the
worthy managers on their success, and
