delightful weather. We had almost though'

Corn rLuNT..ARY.-We had the pleasure
on Tuesday last, of beinr present at a little
f e at the .dvneoatl ofice in consequence of I
presntatation to J. J. Jones ECe by the em- I
plopeis of that otlice, of a beautiful gold-head
ed cane---a merited and deserved compliment.
Our old-time friend, Mr. A. W. HvrArT, pre
sented tbk tsetimeOial with a few (icl e t
and very appropri'te remarks, which were
responded to ia:s feeling manner by the re
cipient, whose bsluhes spoke fpr more elo
quent than bit teply, the emotions of his
heart. After the presentation, the company
partook of a handetme colation prepared for
the occasion. We regret we were unable- to
note down the numerous toasts and witty re
maths that passed freely between the visitors
a thlvy were not only'highly complimentary
to all present. but to the community at large.
As we were -leaving, "facetious 7".ings," n
connection with '.lr. Pickwick,' were vainly
eideavoring to square the circle with the
empty champagne bottles, and glasses-and
failing,. gave the following toast. Things toast
-'"Here's to the stick, may it stick to Mr
lones, and may Mr. Jones stick to the stick."
alter that hborid outrage, we cut our stick.

Ta. SuaOa PLANTEas MEETING.- e an
ntonied in our last issue that a meeting ot
the Sugar planters would be held f n Wed
nelay last; true to the appointment some
- three or four planters were at the Court P
House, but they were all. Nobody raid any
thing; nobodly did anything, and the Parish
of West Baton Rouge will not be represented
in the New Orleans' Convention, unless some
of tr planteas eaoose to go, without being
regularly delegated for that purpose. If the
planters will not attend to their own interest
,When jeopardized, who will attend to it for
thm ? 36 long as they remain dingle in ac
tion, so long must their joint interest suffer.
sad they will find when too late, that they
sul'er through their own. negligence. We
await the action of the Conoention with no
iittle interest

lature for the office of State t'rite.r, ana be
fore they are decided, we would be pleased
to bear trom it on the subyjt o1 "rettench
wrent' in this particular. The mnainsgenie.at
of the business of that establishmuent is in
th. hands of one of the best practical printers
in this or any other country, and could en
lighten the Legislature on this head. Will
the .Adoecate speak out atd "define its poi.
tion" before the election of Primier ? The
people and their sepresentattves want light
on the matter, and shouid have it before
making their choice for this important offire.
We wait for iniormatson.

to the occupation by the fleets of the Allies
St,t the wate=o alonhmg her coasts. The taling

known that the condition of the peassatry of

I hot it rueot not be doubted that Know Noth

T:S.; Mrs.'s Lcr.ts.-The attendance
on Monday evening last, at the Christian

fe:iw-citizen, Dr. LA.rcuc. was large and
g highly complimentary to the lecturer, as also
.ratifying to the ,nembers of the Lyceum.
It would bet uselesa for us to attempt to give
p eve'n a st.nopsis of the gentleman's beautiful,
I cleat and lurid explanation bf the anatomy

m hibited a thorough and profound knowledge
Si his snhlject, which he conveyed to his
