OF tho police forco, 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 Schweitzcr
k@se 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-

pense, and ride with me (on last Sunday with
OUT paying any fare to- or having any fear Of the
conductor. Hailing one Of the Eighth Avenue
cars we jump in, but of course cannot get seat:

very edifying German conversation. The con-
ductor calls for his fare; pay him six cents, 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. long and
beautiful walk leads us to the garden, and here
we behold thousands OF Germans assembled.
German gentlemen indulging in innocent little
shooting at targets taking their lit

wooden horses, in the pretty little wooden cars
taking their uro,os to swing-and all enjoying.
tn emselves in the most orderly and innocent
manner.
We walk around the we'll shaded grounds, and
at last, growing thirsty, and catching the infec-
tion Of the lager beer mania, we enter the great
building where it is 30 freely circulated. On the
fret floor about fifteen hundred men, women and
chill dren imbibing at one time fifteen hundred
glasses OF lager, and paying their particular re-
spects to fifteen hundred stout slices Of Schweitzer
KRse. The ladies have their mouths full OF
cheese-the children, defying indigestion, have
their mouths likewise full, whilst the men drink
beer, eat heese, and smoke segars, apparently at
one and the same time. On the second floor a
large hall, open at the sides, about two thousand
or twenty-five hundred cheese-eaters and beer
drinkers are hard at work. On the story above
is q b alcony or piazza, also private apartments
cheese and beer again. On the roof even, large
asse mblage Of ladies, gentlemen and babies
vigorously attacking the Schweitzer and swallow
ing cool draughts Of lager. Twelve thousand
Germa ns assembled at a time, all imbibing and
yet not tho slightest disorder or disturbance to
mar the pleasure of the beer drinking or the in
nocent enjoyment of the cheese frolic. From
fifty thousand to one hundred thousand glasses Of
lager sold here every Sunday, and Judge
CARDozo's health (and confusion to the Excise
Board) has been drunk in enough beer to float q
seventy-four msn-of-war.

circumstance that happened on the evening of the
day on which he rendered his decision. large
number Of Germans were 30 elated thereat, that
they held an informal meeting, at which much
beer was drunk, many good speeches made, q
quantity of bad segars smoked, and, to wind up,
the Judges name was proposed as q candidate for
the next mayoraIty.
The Fenians had q grand demonstration on
Sunday, near Jones' Wood. STEPHENS haranged
the crowd, whose thirst for glory had been 80
suddenly quenohed by the interference Of Uncle
Sam, and whose 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 the mselves, with soda-water and ginger
pop.
The best engravings OF the Confederate leaders
that have ever seen are now being published by
Messrs. julius TAYLOR & Co. They are the finest

The report Of the COMMITTEES appointed to con-
slider the proprety of bridging Broadway at Full

reports favorably-the Mayor has affixed his sig

I had almost omitted to mention that beside the
great STEPHENS meeting, held on Sunday, the
Fenisns had another grand turnout last night
where Head Centre RoBERTs held forth-this
meeting was held at Union Square. Phe principal
stand directly in front ofthe Maison Doree and
around it were placed Chinese lamps, which Lit uI
the eager countenances of the Irish assemblage
am not aware that any important result occurred
from the meeting, except that it worked we'll for
the interests of the Maison Doree, last night at
least.
The Maison Doree Tor golden house) is located
| in Fourteenth street, near Broadway, and was in
tended to be, par excellence, the aristocratic eat
| ing saloon OF New York. The place is, Of course
fixed up in very elegant style, but there is very
| little taste exhibited in the gingerbread golt
daubngs on the front. The creme de la creme do
most undoubtedly, patronize the Maison; hut il
haslnot succeeded even in fairly rivalling DEL
MoNIcos.
Only four deaths from cholera have bee n re
ported In the past week. No new cases were re
ported yesterday to the Board Of Health. Tht
cholera has made dead failure in this city, and
will probably hang its head and withdraw in shame
