Saturday was a great gala dav in our sister city There is enough French blood left in that place to enable them to get up a pageant with the taste peculiar to that people—and on this occasion the enthusiasm of the whole population was aroused to do honor to the great man whose memory they were about to perpetuate, bv the erection of a last ing monument. T he detachment from ihe military companies of our city was received with distinguished honors and most hospitably entertained during tlieir stay. The monument is to be erected at the junction ot St. Charles and Royal streets. The ceremony of laying the corner stone was performed bv the Grand Lodge of the State of Louisiana, of Free and Accepted Masons. After the ceremony, an ode, in French, was sung by the artistes of the 1 rench Opera Troupe, accompanied by the full or chestra of the Theatre d’ Orleans—followed bv an oration from the Hon. Judge McCaleb, after which the following graceful tribute to the occasion, from the pen of Madame Octavia Walton Le\ r ert wa c read: \S Idle the patriotic sons of our country are uni ting in a testimonial to the memory of Henrv Clay, shall not woman be allowed to place the dow ers of gratitude and affection upon the altar of his fame ? To none were the genius and services of the il lustrious statesman aud orator more dear than to his countrywomen ; with all those lofty and com manding qualities which swav Senates, and guide the course of Empires, he had a heroism of heart, a chivalry of deportment, a deference of demean or, which, while forming the soul and secretjof his impassioned eloquence, were irresistible talismans over the minds of the gentler sex. Great as he was in the “ forum of nations,” or before multitudes of men, controlling them by his "gleaming fingers,” as with the wand of an en chanter, it was in the home circle, by the domes the fireside that his character was seen in its true grace and loveliness ; there his voice, that lately rang like a trumpet amid his assembled peers, anil whose undying echoes (the richest symphonies of patriotism) are still reverberating from the white lulls of New England to the parapets of the Pacific, was turned to all the softest cadences of social aud intellectual intercourse. How delightful it was then to listen to the playful repartee, the gonial anecdotes, the sparkling bon mot*, the vivid re miniscences of European and American society, the always elevated sentiments of one who had mingled in the most prominent scenes of his time i i both hemispheres, without losing in the least the lofty manliness, sincerity and purity of his na tore. Rousseau once said : ‘‘There were no compli ments like a King's ; but how much more fascina ting aud even royal than all the persiflage of a Bourbon or a Ilapsburg were the graceful praises and felicitous commendations of such a man as Mr. Clay, an unquestioned king of mind bv the true right divine, when, with eyes beaming like gems, his high white brow— “ That dome of thought, that palace of the soul,” radiant with benignity, and encircled bv bis sil very locks as by a crown, his aged lips wreathed by the gentlest of smiles, he stood before you in tall and stately majesty. At such times he seemed to blend the graces of Sheridan with the dignity of Washington. Thousands and thousands of his countrywomen will long thus recall him to mind. But not alone in this his more private character does woman appreciate the excellence of Mr. Claw llin public life in many of its aspects had all the romance of chivalry. He stood among the orators mid statesmen of his time as Philip Sidney amid his cotemporary kings aud barons. History has already placed his statue in the pantheon of Im mortality ! Our country's records, from the purchase of Lou isiana. (this lovely land of the sugar cane and magnolia', to the great pacification of lHoo, are vitalized by his glowing words. The mighty Mis sissippi, upon whoso margin we now stand, bears in ail its waters a full remembrance of his early efforts to give freedom to it-, commerce and braid it> million streams into a mighty band ot union and prosperity for our glorious country. The fame of Henrv Clay can never dto. As out otir most gifted southern poet has said : Long ’mid our gallant, great and good, lake Washington, he noblv stood; While trembling on his burning tongue. Truth, justice, peace aud freedom huug. Thrice when our storm-tossed ship of State Seemed sinking with its priceless freight, His guardian spirit, firm and free. Walked o’er our troubled (lullilee. Through all the world his glorious name Is whispered by the,lips of fame; For long in every kindling zone, His voice was freedom’s bugle tone I The tfreok rt irl, kneeling by her seas, Deemed him a new Demosthenes ; Vnd voung Bolivar’s patriot ray Was light-like caught from Henry Olay. How appropriate, then, is it that a memorial of this model statesman, patriot and orator, should , be erected herein the crescent bend of the |Mi s issippi. Not far off rises the sculptured image of ins gicat rival compatriot; the one was the sword auJ shield, the other the mind and the tongue of the counti, Side hv side they stand in the temple ol fame. (rlorinus in ihcii lives, led the noblest ol the tine arts here place their sculptured forms togeth er, that future generations may ga/e in love, gruti tude and veneration upon them, and be* nobly stim ulated in the paths ot patriotism, while they feel the refining influences which the beautiful in art aiwavs exerts upon its votaries. The statute of Thomistooles long greeted trorn „ prom*mtorv in (iree.ee the home returning voy and tired afresh his love for Attica and Atn ens So may the statue of our patriot orator over inspire, with emulous fervor, tin* citizens of this land of liberty, and especially ol this prosperous citv il New Orleans.

Keep Watch Upon the Tongue. People are often subjected to extreme mortifica tion by indulging in disparaging remarks of stran gers, and learning subsequently that the persons themselves or some of their intimate friends were within hearing of the remarks. Such unpleasant occurences rarely have so pleasant a termination as the following singular rencountre between Dr. Dwight and Mr. Donnie: As Dr. Dwight was traveling through New Jer sey, he chanced to stop at a stage hotel, in one of its populous towns, for the night. At a late hour of the'same, arrived also at the inn, Mr. Dennie, who had the misfortune to learn from the landlord that his beds were all paired with lodgers except one, occupied by the celebrated Dr. Dwight.— Show me to his apartment, exclaimed Dennie ; al though I am a stranger to the Rev. Doctor, per haps 1 can bargain with him for mv lodgings. The landlord accordingly awaited on Mr. Ilennieto the Doctor’s room, and there left him to introduce himself. The Doctor, although in his night gown, cap and slippers, and just ready to resign himself to the refreshing arms of sornuus, politely reques ted the strange intruder to be seated. The Doc tor was struck with the literary physiognomy of his companion, unbent bis austere brow, and com menced a literary conversation. The names of Washington, Franklin, Rittenhouse, and a host of literary and distinguished characters, for some time gave a zest and interest to tin ir conversation, until Dwight chanced to mention the name of Dennie. ‘‘Dennie, the editor of the Fort/'olio, t says the Doctor in a rhapsody i is the Addison of the United States—the father of American Bellas Letters. But, sir,” continued he, “is it not astonishing, that a man of such a genius, fancy and feeling, should abandon himself to the inebriating bowl, and to bacchanalian revels ?” “Sir,” satd Dennie, “you are mistaken, 1 have been intimately acquaint 'd with Dennie for several years, and [ never knew or saw him intoxicated.” “Sir," says the Doctor, “you err; I havu mv in formation from a particular friend; I am confident that I am right, and that you are wrong.” Dennie now ingeniously changed the conversa tion to the clergy, remarking that Doctors Aber crombie and Mason were amongst onr most distin guished divines; nevertheless, he considered Dr. Dwight.jPresident of Yale College, the most learned theologian—the first logician—and the greatest poet that America has ever produced. “But, sir,” continued Dennie, “there are traits in his charac ter undeserving so great and wise a man of the most detestable description—he is the greatest bigot and dogmotUi of the age 1 ” “Sir,” said the Doctor, “von are grosslv mi taken. I tun intimately acquainted with Dr Dwight, and know to the contrary.” “Sir," says Dennie, “you are mistaken. I have it from an intimate acquaintance of bis. whom I am confident would not tell me an untruth.” “Xo more slander, ’ says the Doctor, “lam Dr. Dwight, of whom you speak !’’ “And 1 too,’’exclaimed Dennie, “am Mr. I)en me, of whom you spoke The astonishment of Dr. Dwight may be better conceived than told. Suffice it to say, they mutu ally shook hands, and were extremely happy in each other's acquaintance.

No one will ever be without it, after once using it. If you do not tind it better than anything vou have ever tried before, CLT \Ut R MON LA UL- j TURNED!

FARRELL’S CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT IS well known to possess the most wonderfully healing, penetrating and stimulating properties, and by its promptness in effecting cures, which previously had resisted all other medicines, ad mmistere’d bv the most scientific physicians, has placed it far' beyond any similar remedy ever in troduced to the people of the United States. It stimulates the absorbents to increased action, and thus enables nature to throw off' disease—it pene trates to the bone*, adding strength and activity to the muscles—it is powerfully anodyne and thereby allays nervous irrUatwn , product ng a delighdfuUy phasing sensation through the whole frame. Owing to its remarkable anticeptic properties, it purifies and neutralizes that poisonous, corrosive principle which renders old ulcerous sores so difficult to heal; it therefore is peculiarly adapted to their speedy cure. This Liniment from its penetrating and strengthening qualities has been found Jo be a spe cific for Paralysis or Palsy, Whiteswellings and diseased joints', and in fact all comnlaints invol ving the muscular system. It has cured cases of Rheumatism of twenty to thirty years’ standing, and affections of the Spine wherein the entire spi nal column was so crooked and distorted, that the patient could not walk or stand without artificial support. Numerous cases of Palsy have been cured when the flesh had withered, leaving nothing but tbe dried skin and bone, and the limbs totally without use or feeling. For Children with Croup it is of inestimable value, rubbed and bathed over the throat and chest. If applied freely on the chest it never fails to give relitj in the severe Coughs at tending Consumption, Asthma and Colds. It heals wounds speedily—will cure Scaldhead, Mange, etc. Planters and Farmers will find it a most valuable medicine to be applied to Horses and Cattle for Sprains, Bruises, Lameness, Stiff Joints, Sweeney, Dry Shoulder, Wounds, Burns, Splint, Chafes or Galls, Hardened Knots on the flesh, etc. Look out for Counterfeits ! The public are cautioned against another coun terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called i W. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan , gerous of all the counterfeits, because bis having 1 the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil \ effects. The genuine article is manufactured only bv 11. i G.
