The horticultural Garden.

This well-knOwn place of resort, as be-
fore remarked, has passed into the hands
Of Col. Moreau, late Of Indiana, who has
leased it for term of years, and who in
tends to make it one of the most beautiful
and attractive places in the Southern coun-
try. The place contains about ten acres,
every foot of which will undergo the work
of improvement, according to the plans pre-
pared at the instance of the present
proprietor. About three acres OF
the ground will be made into
a beautiful lake, which is 30 be finish
ed with exquisite taste, and rowing and sail
boats will be introduced for the pleasure of
visitors. Other portions of the grounds
Will be laid off in attractive grottoes, hand
some promenades, with inviting arbors and
shrubbery on every side. The buildings on
the place are to be thoroughly overhauled
and improved, aud an elegant billiard room
will be added. A band of music is to be
constantly engaged, a beautiful dancing
grove laid off for the convenience of picnic
parties, and in short there will be nothing
left undone to make Unacceptable to visitors.
Nashville has long wanted just such place
as that contemplated by Col. Moreau, and
we are glad that this beautiful spot has
passed into bis hands.

The Louisville Hotel.

IN the UNION AND AMERICAN Of yester-
day, we referred TO the fact that the Louis
vile Hotel property had again passed into the
hands of the old managers. The Courier
Journal Of yesterday, says:
The Marshal of the Chancery Court re-
SOLD the Louisville Hotel property at the
Courthouse door yesterday morning to Mr..
NJ. Kean and some of Shreve'S heirs, the
former sale being void by decision of the
Chancellor. The property brought 5000. ITO.
By Ibis sale the hotel will be certain to re-
main under its present very popular man
ayers, Messrs. NJ. Kean & Co. An entire
renovation and extension of the building
Will soon take place, when the house will
be refurnished and modernized in every re-
spect.

A few days since the landlady of a GER
tain boarding house sent out for a gallon of
vinegar. The servant brought back the
Jug, and the cruets were filed with the sup
posed vinegar. At dinner the landlady per-
ceived that her guests were using the vine
gar C?) pretty freely, and she was COM
PEELED to have the cruets reflled several
times. The vinegar (O. had a
strange effect. The ladies began
to chatter like magpies, and some
of the younger ones began to tell
of love scenes. The ladies looked decided;
ly spirituene, though their tongues ratified
as fast as sewing machine. The gentle
men grew spirited, and talked with vehe-
mence and volublity. Several members of
the Legislature were present. One imagining
himself in the Representative Hall, cast his
eve on the youthful wearer OF blonde
chignon, and addressed her as "Mr. Speak
er.. / call the previous question" Upon an
examination of The jug the so-cslled vinegar
proved to be-corn whisky.

In one Of the Western States there re-
sided family consisting of an old man by
the name Of Beaver, and his three sons, all
of whom were very wicked. They had of
ten laughed to scOrn the advice and en-
treaties of pious, though very
eccentric minister, who resided in
the same town. 1t happened that
one Of the boys was bitten by rat
tlesnake, and was expected to die, when the
minister was sent for in great haste. On
his arrival he found the young man very
penitent, and anxious to be prayed with.
The minister knelt down and prayed in
this wise: 80 Lord we thank theefor rattle
snakes; we thank thee because a rattlesnake
has bitten him. We pray thee to send a
rattlesnake to bite john; send one to bite
Bill; and, o Lord, send the biggest kind ola
rattlesnake to bite the old man, for nothing
but rattesnakes will bring the Beaver fami-
ly to repentance"
