AN old visitor to Saratoga, the editor of
the Fayetteville n. C.) Observer, writes
as follows of the old times and new at
Saratoga:
"a few years ago read very pleasant
little volume entitled The RecolIections
of a Belle in which the lady authoress
gave an account OF her journey, sixty
years ago, from her home in Georgia to
Ballston, the Saratoga of that day, now an
insignificant village eight miles from here.
The family left home in the coach and four,
with outriders, proceeded by leisureIy
stages. through South Carolina, North
Carolina, Virginia (stopping on the way
at John Randolph's house, the father
being friend of the eccentric Virgin
iun,) then to Washington city, Balti-
more, Philadelphia, New York, stopping
Ito get something to weary at the famous
City Hotel, in Jennings. & Wizards day
The reader can imagine how long it took
thus to travel thousand miles, and at
what expense the journey waS made
The belle is now great-grandmother, her
father and his friend John Randolph long
since went the way of all flesh, the City
Hotel was razed to the ground. and dry
goods stores cover its site, Ballston lost
its mineral spring and ceased to be either
useful or ornamental, the coach and four

The Upper and Lotvcr Decks OF a Mis-
slssippt Steamboat.
BY N. P. WILLIS.

Iventured down to the lower deck, after
dark, that night, and made my way
through the labyrinth of freight, machin-
cry and cattle; and the men, found, were
disposed of very much like kennel of
dogs. Most of them were asleep, wherever
they could find corner or resting place
for the head; here and there is a group
gambling by the light of the furnace fires,
some stretched like wet clothes over the
hogsheads ,of,tobacco, but no sign of any
thought tofaccommodation of for them. The
contrast between the level of abandoned
men, and moaning cattle, and the splendid
luxury of the floor above-alI afloat over
the same keel and guided bY the same
helm-was, to say the least, suggestive.
we had quite French dinner, exceed
ingly high-seasoned aud suUptuous; and,
in the evening, there was. quite variety
of amusement. Two or three youug ladies
among the passengers kept the piano going
at one end of the long and brilliantly
lighted saloon, and, at the other. several
professional gamblers spread their tables,
and there were large audieOces for BOTH
To look at, the gay scene within, itiwas
hard to realize that we were, meantime,
gliding swiftly through such an untrodden
wilderness as met the eye with but step
outuponsthsd deck.

Questions ana Ansvers.

From NoaAs Times and Messenger for
this week, we clip these three or four
questions and answers:
Query Was Alexander Hnmilton's
moral character spotlcss?
An'"er:-It was as pure as that of most
men surrounded by the temptations to
which distinction is always submitted.
Here's question that rather lifted the
editors out of their boots, as is apparent
in their answer:
In pursuing my Investigations in natural
history am often puzzled by questions,
though apparently simple, yet beyond my
power of analysis. One has recently met
me, and wish to appeal to your wisdom
to assist me in its solution. 1t is this: "If
a colts mother is DAM is colts god
mother 'god-dam p"
-t"stcer:-If a colt were privileged to
possess such sponsorial relationships. uu-
IHsI1nce referred to, be appropriate. But
colts, unlike many donkey, tas you must
be personally consciously enjoy no such
sociut endorsements, and the donkey has
often the advantage, therefore, of being
profane when he fNncies ho is merely
witty.
Query:-F bets NJ that this sentence is
cOrrect-namely: "This is one of the finest
demonstrations that have come off, II
maintains that it should read: This is one
of the finest demonstrations that has come
off, Which is right?
AnsVer:-M is in error. The plural
noun Demonstrations" being the antece-
dent, the verb must be in the plural also.
The demonstrations" lin other words,I
are the things that hare "come off" and
o6iactivn DrODnu1 -
to ''one of the finest" of these demonstra-
tions.
Query:-Who is the weolthicst man now
living, and what is he worth?
Amswey :-RothschiId, the banker, is
probably the wealthicst. He is said TO be
worth over a hundred millions. OF course
all such estimates are unreliable, however.
In answer to question about the well
known ring experiment, the EDITORS say:
We have often seen the experiment tried
to which you allude, and it is rather
amusing. For instance, suspend a gold
ring, by thread, from the first joint of
your right finger, which finger must be
kept apart from the rest, for the purpose.
Lean your arm on a pile of books or any
thing else that will elevate the ring about
an inch above the table. Let some one
slipa half-dollar under the ring, aud the
latter will commence vibratoTy motion,
gently at first and continue violently after
wards. While the RUG is thus swinging,
let lady touch your left hand, aud the
ring will soon commence transverse
motion; let her cease to touch you, and
the ring will resume its original notion
They do say that the ring will not do these
things if held by one who excessively uses
tobacco or ardent spirits.
Some one asks the editors (they are
Douglas men, too,) whether they think
Stephen will get four States next Novem,
Der?
They reply that they think not.

He naturally came TO New Haven. Gnil-
ford and Hartford on his way, and at the
latter place he was ''betrayed" into
speech. Still bent on the maternal nil
grlmage he goes towards Boston, attracted
by relative of his wife. 1t was case of
relative attraction. On his way, at Wor
cester, some Judas "betrayed' him into n
speech. At Boston, betrayed again. Now,
however, he started towards his mother
AT Albany, seeking to pass through there

ception (like the one at Hartford) he was
"betrayed" into speech, in which he de-
clared he was on his way to see his moth

Saratoga. Here he lays aside politics,
thinking of his long unseen mother whom
he is about to visit, and sinks into the pe-
nlal pleasures of the place.

[Prom the Cincinnati Gazettel
Tho Purpose of the Bell-EvcrettP Par
ty In Indiana.

We clip the following paragraph from
the New York Express:
VEvAY, Ind, Aug %, 1860.
To the Editors Of the N. y. Express:
The Union fires are burning brightly
ont here, and since the formation OF our
Electoral Ticket, large numbers are being
added to our ranks; if we do no more, we
may at least give the State to Douglas.
INDIANA.
We thank you, gentlemen, for the
traukncss of this utterance. 1t is not
doubtful nor capable of miscoustruction.
1t means simply this that the Bell leaders
we do not say the party-the Bell lead
ers are excrting themselves to elevate to
power that rank disorgnnizer and troubler
of the public peace, Stephen a. Douglas.
"If We do no more, we may at least give
the State to Douglas" If we can't elect
Bell, who is put forward as the friend of
harmony and peace between the different
sections of the nation. we may give the
State to the man who has done more than
any other man in the country, VIM. Lloyd
Garrison not excepted, to inflame and ex-
cite the public mind on the slavery ques-
ton. That's what tue Bell leaders say.
If we can't throw water on the fire, we
may at least throw gunpowder into the
flames.

THE METEOR OF FRIDAY NIGHT.

To me Editor OF The n. Y. Tribune.
SIR On Friday evening last the Plymouth Rock
left Stonipgton harbor for NewYOrk. at little be-
fore 10 o o'clock writer upon her forward deck
looking at some light ahead, when from oDt cloud,
situated in the northwest issued ball of fire, which
majestically moved toward the steamer; a. 1t APP
preached It exploded breaking into i've spear-head
forms Which moved side by side like the Prongs OF a
trident each training behind it stars and streams of
blue and sjlvery hight. The path described was hori-
zonta, and the crossed the vessels bow dagon-
ally, and near, that passenger remarked " II taat
were flock of ducks, ] cond bring one down; white
so slow appeared lite pace thai it seemed that had
boat been moving i'll The direction could have
kept up with the phenomenon.
1he trail appeared to drop OF, and the spear-blade
lights themselves to disappear directly after passing
us, while the distance the meteor travelled over,
seemed to be but five or six miles The writer has
witnessed every description of pyrotechnics exhibited
on this continent bat never ybDg thai in beauty
briancy could compare with this and doubts if either
BelhazLar Saul amy thing finer. Que passenger
suggested that the whole thing got up by ynlcan
ana Mars to herald the appFOa3n of Z)aayes thea
on the Sound on their way East; and certainly il ID
Just reasonable to suppose that these ancient gentle
men have invented and al praeticing with style
OF thunderbot and rifel cannon as apprehend, as
do, that this meteor indicates that Pandoras box
has been reopened and new and fell dseass is to
be let loose upon mankind. TRI-HouYT.
