Louisiana (Louisiana, United States) (search for this): article 8
adly blended colors, their long, striding, masculine walk, from our own graceful and languid belles, who never raise their eyes and stare a man in the face till he feels himself blush under his whiskers, but just raising their lid give one timid glance, but oh, a glance of such electric power! One of the most brilliant of our belles, the other day, assured me that she had not been on dear, delightful Canal street for at least six weeks, and what think you was her reason? (Oh, gallants of Louisiana, your reward will surely be great and glorious!) They were--first, that at a meeting of belles it was resolved that, as all the men of New Orleans had gone to fight for their freedom, it behooved not the maids to waste their sweetness on those who have ignored every call of honor and duty and basely remained at home. That, as the brave were making sacrifices, the coward should be shown how the absent can be remembered. The Picayune describes the Union meeting of Saturday night as lar

That, as the brave were making sacrifices, the coward should be shown how the absent can be remembered. The Picayune describes the Union meeting of Saturday night as large and enthusiastic, but neglects to state the nature of the crowd. We who have no fear will state that it was composed of Yankees, Dutch and negroes, who applauded enthusiastically and appreciatively their white "brethren." The principal speakers were T. J. Durant and Col. Fields. The former is described as speaking passionately. When did we who know him ever see that cold, unsympathetic nature kindled to passion? The voracious Col. Field enlightened the meeting as to the cause of the war, and amused his intelligent audience by holding up to their ridicule those whom he honored by the title of the leaders of this rebellion

on to bail. The only crime which the accused had committed was merely the avowal, before the occupation of the city by Yankee, of a preference for the Southern Confederacy. Subsequently other charges, such as heading or promoting a conspiracy, &c., were trumped up, but no proof had been advanced. How the case terminated the report does not say, but judging from the seal of the prosecuting attorney, not, we imagine, to the benefit of the prisoner. From a New Orleans letter in the Grenada (Miss.) Appeal, we take the following gossip of interest: When Banks first came here with his great expedition, that highly intellectual class, the Northern merchants, expected that Vicksburg would fall, and the navigation of the Mississippi would be certainly opened. Acting upon this anticipation, they have shipped here enormously. The consequence is, the market is so glutted with everything that goods are ten per cent, lower than in New York, and is so fluctuating that often the diffe

Banks's first interview with Butler has not been noticed in any of our papers that I have seen, and I must give you a sketch of it as I had it from--;never mind who. Butler advanced towards Banks with his usual graceful empressement, and begged him, during his stay in New Orleans, to live in confiscated houses. He then drew his official documents, informing Butler that he was superseded; a fact, they say, of which he had not dreamed. He tookred dollars per month to French, which was never accounted for.

The Picayune man has found something and on the levee. He says: A walk on the leves, the grand quay, the grand reception, the great concentration, that was, of the citizens and inhabitants of nine-tenths of the commercial world, at this time presents behooved not the maids to waste their sweetness on those who have ignored every call of honor and duty and basely remained at home.

In the evening some of the fallen hero's friends called upon him. The scene presented in his parlor beggars description — There sat the lady of the stolen mansion, her face very long and very doleful. His brilliant staff surrounded him, brilliant no longer. Alas, visions of detected rascality fixated before them — visions, they say, fully realized.--Clark, of the Butler Delta was there, resembling a punctured balloon, from which the gas was rapidly exhaling. French was there. He is now positively superceded, though it is not publicly announced.

The voracious Col. Field enlightened the meeting as to the cause of the war, and amused his intelligent audience by holding up to their ridicule those whom he honored by the title of the leaders of this rebellion. This is the same Col. Fields who a few months ago, when his loyalty to our cause was questioned, wrote from his sick bed that affecting letter, in which he indignantly asked his accusers "how they could believe that his heart was otherwise than with us, when his life had been passed here, his children born here, and here was his property." So much for consistency and truth. Our w
