LiquOring at NeW-Orleans.

n. ?. Willis, in one of the sketches of
travel he is now publishing in the Home
Journal, describes as follows the magni-
tude and splender of the New-Orleans
Temples of Drink and the habits of
their patrons:
The Hotel st. Louis, (the principal
one after the burning down of the ST
Charles is an immense structure on the
scale of the Astor House of New ork,
built around lofty rotunda, that was
once, believe, the City Exchange. The
towering dome of this imposing architec-
tural centre, reaches to the roof, and is
surrounded with corridors and gallery;
and the hotel, (an excellent and highly
luxurious one,) seems quite secondary to
it in its magnificent use as 'bar-room.'
1t is paved with marble, merble coun-
ter extends around one-half of its .circu-
lar area, and so vast is the interior that
the half moon Of busy barkeepers, seen
from the opposite gallery, as they stand
and manipulate behind their twinkling
wilderness of decanters, looking like
julep- aroma, performed by dwarfs, the
murmer of the gliding ice and the aroma
of fragrant mint, betraying their occupa-
tion, buttheir features quite undistinguish-
able in the distance.
New-Orleans is studded all over with
these temples of drink-none quite as ar
chitecturally imposing as the ST. Louis
dome, but all sumptuously splendid and
costly. The walls are hung with costly
paintings, and all that damask and velvet
can do for comfort, and gliding and ma
hogany for splendor, is lavishly done
Of the amount of Reorganization of these
resorts, some idea may be formed by what
a friend mentioned to me as the history
of one of them, which he had chanced to
learn in the way of his profession. This
one ("The Gem") cleared its rent of S3,-
900, paid for its decorations and furniture,
and made a net profit besides of $50, 900,
in the first year of its operation. The ave-
rage receipts of any of the fashionable
drinking saloons may be set down at
5000 day. A gentleman's expenses, for
the inevitable drinks with friends and ac-
quaintances, average from $500 to $500
per diem.
A sumptuous lunch of turtle soup, ETC.,
is furnished gratis, at noon, to attract
customers; a man getting more than the
worth of his money, of course, who lunches
and drinks for sixpence, but, the pro-
prietor, finding his profit in the few who
eat, in comparison with the many who
drink, at that hour, and in the policy of
anything which will add to the repute of
the place, and draw a crowd. The rival
ry of these drinking places make a year
ly increase of magnifcenoe in their lux
uries and appointments, which seem to
promise that the Arts shall be tributary
and the city be largely indebted to them
for its splendor."

Internal Machines,

General Pierce, the President elect,
few days since, received suspicious look
ing box, per Cheney's Express, from the
West. Surprising, from his exalted posi-
ton, that sotAe wicked Wing, or "fananti-
cal Abolitionist" might be plotting his
destruction, he very naturally regarded it
as an internal machine, intending to land
him in glory before his time. Not feeling
any great partiality for such apothcosis,
he ordered this new Pandora's box to be
slowed away in the barn, "unsight un-
SEEM and strictly forbade any one to go
near Thus it remained some days, un-
til one Sunday, when nobody was at home
save Mr. W., the Generals boarding mas
ter, who, being exercised thereto by a
courageous and laudable curiosity, de-
termined to solve the ''infernal mystery"
Accordingly seizing long-handled axe
and placing himself at rational distance,
he hurled the iron weapon with full fury
into the box. After waiting with breath
less expectation for the machine" to ex-
plode, Mr.. w. approached it and diseoy-
cred (torriciH dicluD two brace of re-
markably fat ducks and haunch of ven-
ison, sent to the President elect by an
admiring Catholic friend in Cincinnati,
with note accompanying, desiring to be
remembered in the division of the spoils!
We need only add that the only thing
"infernal" about the "maehine" was an
inodorous smell-for which the admirer
of the new President was in no way re-
sponsible.
Authority for this story is the Concord
Democrat.

PART SECOND-THE ACTOR.

There are no places of general convo-
cation which so much frequent as camp
meetings. 1t is true, there is great deal
about them that | cannot admire great
deal of oddity in dress, and speech, and
manners, that provokes mirth-a great
deal of some other things that excites an
ger-but take it all in all, for practical
exhibit of religion, for unbounded hospi-
tality to strangers, for unfeigned and fer
vent spirituality, give me country camp
meeting against the world. And of all
the world give me Bethel Camp Ground
as the best. Its noble spring is larger,
freer and cooler than any other, as it bull
ges out from the sparkling sands clear O.
yer the top of the old sycamore-gum, and
seeks far distant level below. Its oaks
are larger, and sounder, and shadier, as
they stand stiffiy by the doorways of the
tents, and guard the very entrance of the
stand.
There is a sound of welcome murmur-
ed out by their fddle-shaped foliage, when
the annual August gathering occurs, and
their old cast-away last years leaves,
which have disgusted. their very nostrils
so long, are all swept and burnt, and they
can behold the green grass coating their
