"Arrived hero just in time tew seo the
Atlantik Osean, which iz now on exhibi
shun, and dewing a good bizness, tew full
houses. Took a bath tew onst, and was
astonished tew find the water so saltuous ;
«inquire the kauzo of an intelligent natifl,
arni he informed he didn't care; 1 think he
lied. There is about ono hundred and six
ty thousand human beings, and other
folks, here now, az near ar. i kan git at it;
i kounted till i got tired, and then estimat
ed. It is perfekly harte renting tew see
the females here in search ov natural pro
tektors. i kounted 16 yesterday in one
pile, they awl sighed az i past bi them,
with down cast eyes. I felt sorry for them
but çouhln't help them, for i am thorough
ly inarrid, and intend tew remain so There
u tew breezes here, a sea breeze, and a
jersee breeze, and i advise all persons tew
use the sea breeze, for the other is so much
up before it reaches here, that it soon uses
up everybody after it gits hero. Yester
day 1 went out krabbing and ketohed a
rick of them, they bite sideways, and hang
on like a dead hoss shoe, they make good
vittles enufF, but they aint profitable tew
eat, if you könnt your time wuth enny
thing- The bathing iz luxurious, and the
bathers ^semble inermades, half men and
half wirnmin; they aul dress in the chok
taw kostom, and when they emerge from
the water, yu kant tell which iz who, un
less yu ask them. There iz21 hotels, and
and they are prinsipally bilt out doors' tew
give the guests as much brinaqueous air az
possible. Tho lodging rooms are small,
but handy, each one haz a door tew them,
and a looking glass ou the wall, and two
washboles and a towell. Dinner iz served
at 2 o'clock, and opens with soup, and
shuts up with huckleberry. The servants
are generally blak, but menny of them hav
lived so long amung the whites that they
begin tew adop ourkuller. The beach, bi

The following description of a bull-fight
is communicated by Mr. T. Sopwith, M
A., F. K. £•, to the Hexham (England)
Courant. The writer states :
"Before taking my soat 1 walked round
to »ee t.he stables, and there saw the men
who wero to perform, as also their horses,
Judge of my astonishment on seeing «
small chapel lighted up with caudles
where the whole of tho men are confessed
before they begin their perilous avocation
and whore, in tho event of their being
mortally wounded in the course of the
combat, tho sacrament of extreme unction
m administered. Thoro was no laughing
nor joking either among the performers or
tho lookers-on; the former had quite the
air of men who knew the risk they were
about to ruu. The arena is about 100
pace« in diameter, and surrounded by
double barrier.
"After a flourish of trumpets tho arona
was cleared of spectators, several soldiers
on horseback assisting to expedite their
departure. A procession then entered,
consisting of two masters of tho ceremo
rues, fivo picadors on horseback, fourteen
banderilleros, including throe matadors,
all dressed in rod or blue silk, richly em
broidered with gold, silver or black silk,
arid two teams of raille», three In each,
with nine or ton assistants, to draw the
dead carcasos from the ring.
"The wholo procession crossed tho arona
and advanced to tho front of the royal
box, which on this occasion was empty,
but from an adjoining box a bunch of
keys wan thrown to liberate tho bulls from
their dungeons. The procession retired
with the keys, and none but the banderil
leros remained. A door in tho barrier
was tlion thrown open, and No. 1 bull
trotted into the ring. He stopped when
ho had got about twenty paces, arid
gazed right and left in evident bewilder
ment. Then, rteoiiig the banderilleros, he
quickly trolled alter them. Thoy evaded
him, and ongaged his attontion by waving
flying cloaks of different bright colorn
about his head. The bull soon stopped
arid Htood steadily looking at the banderil
leros, who advanced close to him and
cleverly evaded the sevoral charge* made
by the animal. The latter was very un
decided, and seemed afraid of his oppo
nents. The spectators now began to ex
prou» disapproval of his cowardico, and
there wait » general hirtsing when tho bull,
on being boldly confronted by Cuchares
turned away. The trumpets now sounded
as tho signal for another act of the per
formance to commenco. Darts were given
to the banderilleros, wtio stuck them into
tho shoulders of the bull; thoy were stuck
in, not thrown. The art of so doing re
quires a very active inovomont, which, by
its dexterity, is graceful. It is done when
the bull is charging, and the darts—about
thirty inches long - are thrunt in two at a
time. This must bo done deliberately,
and the place of insertion ig « fleshy part
of the fore shoulder. No wound during
tho wholo of the performance is inflicted
on any other part of the shoulders.
"Tho bull being acoward, the spectators
called fiuego, and the darts, instoad of be
ing plain, were provided with squibs and
crackers, which ignited as they entered the
flesh, and wore seen blazing about the be
wilderod and now infuriated animal. Six
darts wero thrust in, and although the
wretched animal was wild with pain and
rage, he wan not, thought sufficiently
brave; a flourish of trumpets announced
tho last act, tho picadors not having boeu
put in requisition at ail.
"Cuchares, tho principal performer, now
appeared upon tho scene with a red cloth
arid a long, thin sword. The bull was
completely frightened at him. and it was
only after being followed for some time
that ho showed any disposition to turn
upon and attack his persecutor. Cuchares
allowed him to charge two or throo times,
jnat stepping a foot or two aside, and then,
gazing steadily at him plunged his sword
nearly to tho hilt in the shoulders of the
hull, which imrnediauly loll on his knees,
and received a filial wound with a poniard.
"A second bull now galloped into the
ring and at once began to chase the ban
derilleros, who ran before him with great
coolness, and at times waved their long
înaetfes sbeîrt his horn s. An the btril ran
faster than the men, the latter must either
turn aside or try to butfle him with their
bright red mantles, and this they goner
ally sucoeedod in doing. This requires
very great adroitness, as well as activity
and presence of mind, for if the mantle
was not properly thrown, tho performer
would probably step upon it and be thrown
down, at the risk of almost certain death.
Picadors were now introduced, arid tho
bull in pursuing the banderilleros sud
denly caught sight of a horse close to
him; he seemed thunderstruck, pawed tho
ground, lowered his head, and rushed
upon tho horse. Tho picador thrust at
him with his lanco, but the bull broke
right through this defonce, and, with a
tremendous gore, killed the horse. Ho
then rushed at another horso, was twice
repulsed by the lance, but succeeded a
third time and unhorsed tho picador. A
third horso suffered a similar fata, and his
rider rocoived a heavy fall, which disabled
him during tho rest of the day—indeed,
the only chanco lor bis lifo was in the im
mediate rescue by tho banderilleros. This
bull was very clnmsily treated by the
second matador, who failed no less than
five times in the attempt to inflict a death
blow, and for which he was hissed by tho
people.
"The third bull mado what was called
the 'best 1 fight of the day. During his
career ho charged three horses in the mid
dle of tho arena, one after the other, lift
ing them completely off tho ground. The
picador was thrown from ono of them six
paces forward, and lay extended on the
ground. The bull was going up to him,
mad with rage, when Ctjchares actually
seized him by the horns, and thus saved
the life of the fallen man. This act of
daring was greeted with tremendous ap
plause. I may say the merit of a bnll is
judged by the Spanish Aficionado (connois
seur) by the number of times he enters to
tho lancing charges of the picador, with
out turning back or appearing to dread
the prick of' the lanco. If a bull does not
enter at all, tho people have a right to de
mand fuegu, as was the ease with tho first
bull this clay, and the president in such a
case gives consont for darts to be used
with crackers on them.
"Of the remaining three bulls a similar
recital might be made. The banderilleros,
who begun with caution anil with tho air
of men who knew what, they were com
bating with, grow bolder and bolder, and
it would be useless to describe tho several
varieties of skill aud cuurago they dis
played."
Tnt , 1" AKiiKits.—A correspondent at
Springfield, Illinois, speaks of the prosper:
it.y of fhe agricultural classes as loliows :
Farmers everywhere are well off. They
appeaa to have money enough to hold oil
to their wool and other crops, and are per
fectly independent. Thousands;who be
fore the war we e deeply hi debt, and had
mortgaged their farms quite heavily, are
now not, «inly out of debt, but. have money
itj the bunk beside, or green backs in their
■strong boxe» at home,.
IS?"" A porson in Paris noticing a poor
mon with a wooden log walking past his
hotel, gave him a franc. Tho next day lie
saw the same beggar ; but ho hud changed
the wooden leg from tho right to tho left.
Enraged at the deception, ho went tip to
the man and exclaimed,—
"You rascal, you had the wooden log on
the other side yesterday ! You are not
lame at all !"
"Monsieur," was the response with dig
nity. "I never said 1 was. I wear a
wooden leg for economy, so as not to wear
out my trowwers ; ami I chango tho log to
prevent one leg of the trowsurs wearing
ont before tho otlior.
Kif" The most extraordinary instance of
patience on record, in modern times, is
that of an Illinois Judge, who listened si -
lently for two daysjwhilo a couplo of wordy
attorneys contended about tho construc
tion of nn act of tho Legisluturo, and then
ended tho controversy by quietly remark
ing : Gentlemen, the law «(repealed."
