The use of ice is general in Paris during the
summer months; it is supplied ia every cafe and
restaurant, and scarcely green grocer OF milk
shop in the better portions Of the town is without
the ice chest for the supply of its customers. The
quantity consumed is said to amount to twelve or
fifteen thuusand tons year. Besides the sale of
rough and pure ice, there is a large trade done in
what are called carges Jrappes, that is to say,
water decanters or bottles, in which nearly the
whole contents are frozen by rapid revolution in
freezing mixture. These carqfes are supplied to
the cafes and also to private families each morn
ing, and being constantly filled by water, serve
throughout the whole day under ordinary temper
atures. Another application of these GARAGES is
to fill them up with champagne OF other VINE, and
thus obtain cool and diluted drinks for evening
parties in hot weather.

IMPRESSIVE CATHOLIC CEREMONIES AT CHICAGO.
Last Sunday, according to the Chicago Times, the
large and beautiful church of the Holy Family was
crowded to its utmost capacity withb worshippers
and the religious societies attached to that denom-
ination. The point of interest was the confrma-
ton and sacrament administered to over Eve hun
bred converts, the ceremonies attending which
were of the most imposing and magnificent char
acter. The Times says:
The altar presented magnificent and gorgeous
sight as the clergy and the richly dressed acolytes
marched in and seated themselves within the altar
rails; the bishop, assuming the Episcopal seat TO
the left and the other clergymen seating them
selves to the right, while the altar boys divided
and fled to the right and left, taking seats at
either side of the altag
| The altar itself, the most magnificent piece Of
workmanship of asimiar kind to be found in the
| West, dmly lit up with wax candies, presented a
most beautiful appearance. The rays Of the de-
| scendng sun, piercing the stained Windows, re-
fected their hues of purple, blue and gold, upon
the paintings representing the history Of the holy
| family, and upon the rich ornaments OF the altar,
lending them new and richer beauty.
| Among those confirmed were one hundred con-
verts from Professionalism, and eighty.four Bohe-
mians,

/ The PERFORMANCES OF FENNER's BATTERY
The spacious Opera House on Bourbon street,
| last night, was one refulgent, glowing mass of
| beauty, elegance and fashion, from pit to dome.
The coup d'Eil of Southern loneliness was I'M
marred by any extravaganza in costume which of
late years has rather detracted on some occasions
| from the harmony and simplicity which formerly
characterized the dress circles of the French
Opera.
TWAS some time before we could reach posi-
ton from which either the dress circle or the
stage could be seen; We first tried the parquette,
but unavailingly; then the dress CIRCLE then the
second and third tiers; but these were all SO
iammed with standing spectators of the sterner
sex, that we found it utterly impossible to catch
the slightest glimpse Of what was going on in
front.
We accordingly started around to Toulouse
street. and taking the stairs which led to the fourth
gallery which on all other occasions has been APP
propriated to the colored people, we wendell our
laborious way to the abode Of the gods, where we
found not only numerous company of gentlemen,
but also a score or more Of ladies, who, arriving
late, had been unable to penetrate the throngs on
the lower tiers, and, determined not to be dsap-
pointed, had climbed adventurously to those IN
known regions Of the theater Here we found
the heat oppressiye-almost insupportable- and
though irresistibly detained by the fun and won
derful tricks exhibited in the 4Stronone we could
not wait for the remainder of the pieces.
The clown and his master showed talent for
pantomime which, with little study and practice,
would make them the equals of Hernandez and
Bob Hart, Columbine and Harlequin were also
excellent, except in their dances wherein they
were surpassed by their prototypes at the Acade-
my of Music. The audience were in the highest
spirits and POPULARITY, and by their repeated and
prolonged applause and the attention which they
paid to the performances, seemed to be pleased
| in the highest degree.
This exhibition has been crowned with the most
triumphant success, and we would venture the as
sertiou thatthe gross receipts last night must have
reached in the neighborhood 81 $4,000
Weuust the success OF this performance viii en-
courage the gallant members OF Fenner's battery
to give their New Orleans friends a repetition Of

DRINKING SALOONS IN PHmADELPHIA.-In their
presentment made in the criminal court on Thurs
day, the grand jury says =" The grand inquest
desire to present. as an abominable nuisance, the
vast number of lager beer saloons and miserable
groggeries located throughout our entire city. 1t
is, they feel assured, not going too far to affirm
that of all the to which their at.
tention has been called, and with the adjudication
of which this court is burdened, have their origin
either directly or indirectly in this great public
evil. They are the prolific source of crime Of
every grade; the pests of the neighborhoOd in
which they are located the cause of rending
asunder the strongest family ties; of want and
restitution +; filling our streets with paupers of
every age and condition, and our almshouses and
prisons with an immense population, .to. be sup
ported by the honest labor of an industrious
people, They are nuisance calling loudly and
imperatively for vigorous and prompt abate-

In tie Crescent City the lager beer saloons are
conducted with exemplary decorum, and it is very
rare to meet with an iIl-behaved Or drunken man
in them. There are low groggeries in New Or

the Charleston Courier Of the 14th contains an
account Of serious riots which occurred in that
city on the previous night, and which, but for the
prompt and energetic conduct of the officers in
command Of the post, might have proved as serious
in tteir consequences as those which occurred in
Memphis fortnight ago. It appears that series
of disturbances took place at negro ball, during
which several pistol shots were fred Hearing
the reports, the officer Of the day, and lieutenant
who was with him, called out all the men on duty
In the guafdhouse and proceeded to the spot whers
after considerable difficulty, they succeeded in
arresting and carrying Of fifteen or twenty Of the
rioters white and black.
Shortly after The departure Of the soldiers, the
disturbance broke out afresh. Another officer on
duty. being informed 81 the matter, rode to the
spot and arrested two negro soldiers, both armed
with royoivers and both bidding him defiance, re-
fusiig to leave and declaring they lived there.
One of them seized hold Of theoficer's bride, and
drawing his revolver pulled trigger three times on
him. The pistol snapped twice, but ct the third
attempt tie officer charged On the negro, and sue
ceedsd ia bringing him doWR. The other negro
