Oh! Dear what shal I do? for I have commenced on a big sheet of paper for the simple reason that I have no other, and as I can never fill this what a scolding somebody will give for writing such short letters. Well to commence with it is nearly eleven Oclock, and i have been down town all the evening. We call it down town for it is about three miles down to the business part of the City. To morrow is to be the grand display of the inauguration of Michael Hahn for Govoner of the State. The preformance is to take place with a great Military display. One of the principal squares of the city is being fitted up with a platform capable of sitting two thousand persons To see the amount of National Colors that are flying from the platform, you would take this to be one of the most Loyal Cities in the United States. One thing is sure, such a display in New Orleans, will be of great benefit to the National Army
