NEW YORK LETTER.
FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENCE
NEw YORK, June 26.-superintenden KENNEDY,
OF the police force, having decided that the-in-
Junction granted by Judge CARDozo applies only
to the cases of HoLT and PAUL FALK, these whole-
sale dispensers OF Sunday lager and schweitzer
Kmse had the game in their own hands, or rather
in their own gardens, again last Sunday. In
order to reach PAUL FALK's .Lion Park, Belvi-
dere" it is Of course necessary to take the cars.
This your readers can do with nae, free of all ex-
pc nse, and ride with me ION last Sunday with
out paying any fare to- or having any fear Of, the
conductor. Hailing one Of the Eighth Ayenue
cars We Jump in, but of course cannot get seat;
we, therefore, stand up, and jolt, and shake, and
juggle; and juggle, and shake, and jolt, and lis.
ten, with an assumed appearance Of interest, to
very edifying German conversation. The con-
ductor calls for his fare; pay him six centss and
your readers ride free. At Fifty ninth street we
change cars, and paying but five cents this
time, ride up to the end of the Central Park, or
One Hundred and Tenth street. A long and
beautiful walk leads US to the garden, and here
we behold thousands Of Germans assembled,
German gentlemen indulging in innocent little
recreations- shooting at targets-takng their lit
tie ones to ride on the circular platform, on the
wooden horses, in the pretty little wooden OARS
taking their vrosos to swing-and ail enjoying.

We walk around the well shaded grounds and
at last, growing thirsty, and catching the infeo-
ton of the lager beer mania, we enter the great
building where 1t is 80 freely circulated. On the

glasses Of lager, and paying their particular re-

their mouths likewise full, whilst the men drink
beer, eat cheese, and smoke aegars, apparently at
one and the same time. On the sedond floor, q

seventy -four man-of-war.
Speaking Of Judge CARDozo, reminds me OF .
circumstance that happened on the evening of the
day on which he rendered his decision. A large
number Of Germans were so elated thereat, that
l they held an informal meeting, at which much
beer was drunk, many good speeches made, a
quantity Of bad segars smoked, and, to wind up.
the Judges name was proposed as candidate for
the next mayoralty.
The Fenians had grand demonstration on
Sunday, near Jones' Wood. STEPHENS haranged
the crowd, whose thirst for glory had been so
suddenly quenched by the interference Of Uncle
Sam, and whoae thirst for whiskey cocktails had
been increased by the restrictions imposed by the
Excise Board they, however, cheered STEPHENS
speech, and when their throats grew parched and
dry, they contented themselves, or rather did not
content themselves, with soda-water and ginger

The report of the COMMITTEES appointed to con-
sider the propriety of bridging Broadway at Full

reports favorably-the Mayor has affixed his sig
nature, and the work will soon be fat acconeph.
I had almost omitted to mention that beside the
great STEPHENS meeting, held on Sunday, the
Fenians had another grand turnout last night,
where Head Centre ROBERTS held forth-this
meeting was held at Union Square. The principal
stand was directl in front the Maison Doree and
around it were placed Chinese lamps, which lit up
the eager countenances of the Irish assemblage.
I am not aware that any important result occurred
from the meeting, except that 1t worked we'll for
the interests Of the Maison Doree, last night at
least.
