The Bibb County Cavalry, Capt. Bass, and Floyd
Rifles, Capt. Hardeman, held their regular anni
versary parade on Saturday. It was the first ap
pearance of the Cavalry in full equipment, and it
will be hard to find a more beautiful and efficient
corps. At noon they rendezvoused at Camp Ogle,
tborpe, where an elegant collation had been spread
under Freeman’s supervision, for the Company and
a few invited guests. In the absence of a clergy
man to invoke a blessing, nobody objected to ta
king the viands on trust, and all obeyed the Cap
tain’s order to fall to with perfect alacrity. The
gallant Commander was soon called out in a neat
and patriotic speech, the press was toasted and
handsomely represented in the veteran of the Citi
zen, and the officers aud privates, one after anoth
er, were called out in manifestations patriotic, gay,
grave and witty as the humor served them, till the
table was in a constant roar of merriment or clat
ter of admiration. Every body was laid under
contribution for the general store of enjoy ment
and jokes flew thick and fast. A very pleasant din
ner indeed, and many more of them to the Bibb
County Cavalry.
It was a high festal day too with the Floyd Ri
fles, and we question whether that excellent corps
ever made so fine appearance before. They were
over fifty strong, and the addition of a new plume,
is a great improvement to their uniform—in fact
leaves nothing under that head to desire. They
were hospitably entertained at noon at the bouse
of their Commander, after a trial at target shoot
ing, in which Henry Wcstcotc, Esq. came off vic
tor and was awarded a prize of a handsome silver

stead of said sheriffs and their deputies appoint, at
their discretion, and in such instances as they may
choose, other fit persons for the same purpose. The
election hereby authorized shall continue one day
only, and shall not be continued later than sundown
on that day. The Board shall appoint the. day for
holding said election, and said government shall an
nounce the same hy proclamation, and the day shall
be as early a one ns is consistent with due notice
thereof to the people of said Territory, subject to the
provision of this act. The said Board shall have full
{•ower to prescribe the lime, mauner and place of
said election, and to direct the time and manner of
the returns thereof, which returns shall be made to
said Board, whose duty it shall be to announce the
Tlie Mount Vernon Purcliasc.
It will be seen from the address of “ tbe
Southern Matron” which is elsewhere publish
ed by request, that the stipulations of a bargain
have been at length arranged, and that 200
acres of the estate of Mount Vernon, includ
ing the residence and tomb, will become the
property of the Association, when the last
stiver of something upwards of two hundred
thousand dollars, principal and interest, shall
have been paid. The Ladies have certainly
in part accomplished a very patriotic work
and the proprietor of Mount Vernon may be
said with equal truth to have “ done a good
thing.” The value of Mount Vernon, as the
home and grave of Washington—the almost
hallowed spot around which will ever cluster
so many patriotic memories and associations,
is not to be measured by dollars and cents.—
It is literally inestimable in every sense of the
term. But the value of Mount Vernon as a
200 acre lot on the Potomac river, run to
weeds aud waste, must be rated a good deal
short of a thousand dollars per acre, unless
Virginia lands have risen lately. But the La
dies could do no better, as they inform the
public, aad the public Well Knew before,
patriotic necessity existed for the purchase—if
for nothing else, to save tlie hallowed spot
from desolation. Some computation of in
computable values had to be arrived at, and it
has been done.
Kansas Bill Passed.
The Kansas Bill, as amended in Conference
Committee and elsewhere published in detail
has passed—passed both Houses. Jubilate
let us shout. Kansas is dead ! dead!! dead!
done bleeding! done up finally and forever
we may hope, as a public pest aud nuisance—
at least, let us hope she may hereafter be com
pelled to fight out her own quarrels.
The Bill passed both Houses on Friday-
the Senate by 31 to 22—in the House 112 to 103
The despatch says there was a perfect war of
words in both Houses, and rencontres antici
pated, but fortunately the contention went no
farther than words.
The Bill is unexceptionable in point of prin
ciple, and must have received the entire South
ern Democratic vote. It assents to the Ad
mission of Kansas under the Lecompton Con
stitution, with the exception of the Land Ordi,
nance, for which it proposes a substitute, in
the event of the acceptance of which by the
people of Kansas,^he State is, by the fact of
acceptance, admitted. Should she reject the
substitute, she remains a Territory until legal
proof is made that she has sufficient population
to entitle her to a Representative in Congress,
and has taken under sanction of law all the
steps necessary to State organization.
Will all their horror of the “ Lecompton
Swindle,” as the amiable Mr. Greeley calls it
Kansas it is hardly doubted will accept State
Government and Lecompton at once. She
has too many patriots of the Lane stamp anx
ious for a seat in the United States Senate to
balk even at the own hard swearing over Le-
comptou. Kansas will be a jewel of a State
for a while with the representation in Congress
but by and by she will section off her own
meanness and begin to mend. Who doubts it ?

RESULT.
From Messrs. Crittenden & Co. downward
through all the stages and phases of Anti-Le
compton, passing Seward, Wilson and Greeley,
down, down to Jim Lane, there has been a six
month’s wail over the horrid “Lecompton
fraud” and the still more horrid attempt to
cram” that constitution “ down the throats”
of the people of Kansas. Such a piece of
despotism” was never before attempted—
such “ an outrage upon free government”
never before conceived. We are now to have
fine practical test of the sincerity of all this
blather. Lecompton, undive3ted of a single
alleged atrocity, is offered to the outraged free
soilistn of Kansas ? The Tribune, whose heart
misgives him at the result, is already sputter
ing about a big “ Laud Grab” thrown in as
a bribe to gild the Lecompton bill, but if a
bribe be offered, can Mr. Greeley’s Kansas
patriots be bribed ? and if they are corrupti
ble, will they be seduced by grants of land to
the Slate ? What, then, after all this fuss
and clamor, this threatened resistence unto
blood, will tbe Kansas free soilers quietly vole
themselves into State Government under the • ... ... .. , i ••— 0 —accorjw

Factious Opposition.
The last game of mere factious opposition,
was played out by the Black Republicans of
the House, under lead of Henry Winjer Da
vis, last Wednesday. It was an attack upon
the Kansas Bill as an invasion of State Rights,
iu presenting conditions to a Sovereign State
seeking admission into the Union! Mr. Da-

of prescribing conditions to a Sovereign State!
Au appeal of awful solemnity to State Rights

this ground, but the single step from the sub
