How THEY Build IN New YoRK.-MIKE
WALSH, now connected with the Boston Her

rather tough, has more truth than poetry IN
it:

work done as cheaply as possible, houses 'ne'e

to be more and more the case here. We have
il ayerred that building contractors, there have
been know TO split their bricks and set them
up edgewise, to make one supply the space oil

ment the bricks together with mud, instead oil
mortar, 10 the end that they must soon iall,
perhaps by wind, perhaps by fire, and SO aiord

should bid defiance TO both these agents and

/ tween the layers, OIL pretence OF mailing the
i lathing 10 them. OF. course, il the building
takes fire, the scantling burns away and the
wall come down. This is not the only evil conse
quent on such a style of buildings. For exam

CO. Judge Chsmberlain-as the Democrat
STYLES the locoioco eector who addressed some
seventy-five or eighty wings and locos at our
court house on Tuesday last-said in his speech
that Gen. Taylor was Mr.. Polls "BurcHER.
For this specimen of blackguardism we styled
Judge Chamberlain ''stinking locofoco Sian
derer;" and we knop that every wing and
many of their opponents who heard him, agree
with us that for thus abusing the good old man,
Judge Chamberlain is a sinking iocofoco Sian
dsrer. Ii was this remark, and other buse o.
the Kind, that induced true democrat 10 de-
clare in our hearing that he could not sanction
such a course against the brave and humane
Taylor, aad would not be of party that dl'
sanctioui it, Whenever the Democrat abuses on
citizens or Judge Chamberlain our gallant lea
der, we will apply such names as we think de
serving.

OLD ZAcK-AN IscIDENT.-At an early hour
yesterday morning, long before our city folks
had got through their morning nap, Gen. Tay-
lor might have been seen, by those astir 50
soon, vending his way quietly from the levee
to the st. Charles Hotel. BY times he visited
the counting house of his merchants, Messrs
Mounsel, White & Co., read the morning pa
pers, digested his breakfast and prepared him
self for general survey OF the city. His Wis
il was altogether unex pected, but his presence
wherever he went, was greeted by the warm
CONGRATULATIONS oil his friends, and who is not

~ interesting group was collected on the Por-
tico of The hotel Maj. Gems. Gaines, Butler,
Twiggs, Patterson; and Taylor were all toSe tn
err. They had met for the first time siEce the
close of the war, and right hearty were the
greetings of these men of deeds. A numerous
company of gentlemen were around them, and
amongst others were number oil the voun-
teers Just retured from the wars. Many OF
these had not seen Gen. Taylor since the battle
of Buena Vista. A hearty grasp OF the hand
attested the sympathy between the soldiers
and their old commander. Meetings like these
are more prolific of memories than words; but
one old battle bronzed solder took g n. ray-
| Tor by both his hands and the words seem &c
ooze out of his heart, as he said: :.General,
stood by you i'm the fight at Buena Vista, and
by - will stand BY you in the one that's
coming on."-N q. Pic.
