. troops, and there were a number of civic associations. Among them the following: Republican Association and Wide-Awakes, numbering 500 men, the former designated by a silver button and the red-white-and-blue sprig, and the latter by a silver eagle on the lapel.

ary Interest to us dwellers in the sunny South.--The proprietors have in their service artists who either copy from very imperfect pictures, or imagine the scenes they pretend to represent. A late number has a representation of a "negro auction in Richmond, Va.," which, for avoidance of truth in details, and general Indecorousness, would rival some of Hogarth's best efforts.
