ou.siurvuly imur velocity, us it was intended to
reach New Orleans on the morning of the Sth.
On the 7th, the weather portended a storm for
the morrow; it rained several times through
out the day, and frequent rainbows gave us
no favourable signs for the great day. The
boats anchored above the city about 7 in the
evening. We were erowded with visiters du-
r.iig the night. We learnt that the legislature
had met in the morning, and that the Gover
nor had announced the arrival of their invited
guest, and that the legislature of the State, in
obedience to public sentiment, had appointed
a joint committee to art in conjunction with
that of the people. Kverv thing was done
that the honor of Louisiana demanded, in
!m-te. it is true—hut still it was done; and it
was sufficient; tiie enthusiasm of the people
filled up the outline, imperfectly sketched by
their representatives. At last the morning of
the auspicious day dawned upon New Orleans.
thick mist covered the water and the land,
which at ten o'clock began to rise into elouds;
and when the sun at last appeared, it served
only to shew the dirkness of the horizon,
threatening a storm in the north. It was at
that moment that the city became visible, with
its steeples and the forests of musts rising
from the waters. At that instant too, a fl' et
of steam-boats was Seen advancing towards
the Pocahontas, which had now got under
way, with twenty-four flags waving over her
lofty decks.—Two stupendous boats lashed
together, led the vail. The whole fleet kept
up a constant fire of artillery, which was an
swered from several ships in the harbour, and
from the shore. General Jackson stood on
•he back gallery of the Pocahontas, his head
uncovered, conspicuous to the whole multi
tude. which literally covered the steam-boats,
the shipping, and the surrounding shores. The
van boats which bore the revolutionary soldiers
and the remnant of the old Orleans battalion,
passed the Pocahontas, and rounding too, fell
down the stream, while the acclamation of
thousands of spectators mug from the river to
rhe woods, and hack acnin to the river. In
this order the fhvt, (eighteen steam-boats of
the first class) passed close to the cilv, direct
ing their course towards the field of battle.
When it was first descried, some horsemen,
(the marshals of the day,) had reached the
ground. Rut ill a few minutes it seemed alive
with a vast multitude brought thither on horse
back and in carriages, and poured forth from
the steam boats. A line was-fortned by gene
rals Plnnehe and Labatut, and the committee
repaired on board the Po'-ahoiitus, in order to
invite the General to hud and meet his brother
soldiers and fellow citizens. 1 have no words

H Imn the president announced the name of

by one impulse, and rent the air with loud and
repeated huzzas. When silence was restored,
Air. Marigny in a speech, delivered with an
energy of manner in unison with the ardour of
his feelings, bestowed a merited tribute of
praise upon the services and character of the
guest of his native state.

From the dinner, I followed tile General to

ed for tiie occasion, was sung with admirable
taste and effect. When the, first act of the
opera was over, the General proceeded to tile

from the battle ground to the city. At 11

Turkish Camum.—It is singular, that in our
conflicts with barbarous, or with half-disci
plined troops, we generally sustain a heavier
loss than in our battles with veteran nnd well-
organized armies. AVnctlicr this arises from
our contempt of the enemy inducing us to at
tack them at greater odds, or at closer quar
ters, or that such foes arc stimulated by the
fiercer passions of untau/ed nature, wo cannot
determine, but the fact is well worthy of con
sideration. Our attack/on Algiers was atten
ded with a loss of life ti’arly equal to anything
wo had ever sustained di board of a fleet; arid,
if we include the numlprs killed on hoard the
Russian ships at Navaino, we shall find the
total number of killed .fid wounded to be near-
Iv as great as in any <f our battles last war.
With respect to the [Lurks, this may arise
from the extremely hdivy cannon which they
generally use. In out ships, and we believe,
in our batteries, we sejlom use a heavier gun
than a thirty-two pounder. No man-of-war
carried any cannon of a larger calibre ; hut the
Turks make use of dvsii tight hundred poun
ders ! When $ir J- T'uckworth passed the

Nation, to wit:—Beginning at Buzzard Roost and run
ning thence on the old path that leads to one Sally
Hughes’s, thence on the main public road to the Geor

of the direction which he designs to give his eda rial

The Columbus Enquirer will he attached to the Re

the principles that characterised the late able adminis

great subject of the next Presidential election, its influ

formidable to the men now in office. But it will not hr*
