I.—A SUNSET SCENE. ‘Twas evening—a baliny June evening—in New Orleans, the gay metropolis of the sunny South. The red-crested waves of the Gulf, roll- ing. lazily in from the setting sun, lashed the pebbly beach in front of the city, and rocked the fleet of vessels anchored in the offing—a icturesque medley of smoking steamers, cotton- aden merchantmen, fillibuster cruisers, Afri- ean slayers, and Castilian fishing smacks. In the far distance, to the east, might be seen the glittering mosques and minarets of Algiers, dis- tinetly defined against the deep blue of the still more distant hills of Opelousas. To the west the watery expanse was relieved by the Cande- labra Islands, interrupting but beautifying the hazy view of somniferous Mobile. scene, in short, was such as to gladden the poetic cye and saturate the soul with soft, sweet melan- choly. Nor were the sounds that greeted the ear lesa soothing in effect than the view of the surround- ing scenery. A sharp and melodious twang came from the flocks of birds that flocked the blue vault above—the gallinippers, ies of pelican peeuliar to Louisiana—whilst Amp ehoral roar of the alligators in the Massasip Bayou and Lake Gretna, was pleasantly relieved bs the <p cracking of the rides and pistols of the merchants and lawyers and other deni- zens of the city, settling up their daily disa- greements on Pontchartrain Ridge, and after the peculiar fashion of the tropics. The streets of the city presented their wonted lively aspoct. Here might be seen a foot-race between a Sena- tor and a Cyprian, with cowhides and pistols switching and popping—there a rough-and-tum- ble combat between an Alderman and boot-jack with the ladies applauding from the balconies, over yonder a ring-fight between a judge and a steamboat engineer—whilst the boys in crowds were pelting houses with bricks and stones, in different directions, and the dogs yelping and scrambling about in promiscuous piles. It was in short a summer evening in New Orleans. = 11—EULALIE. Ta" the old Moorish quarter of the city stood a large mansion, or castle, so to speak; with Ligh walls and grated windows, which repelled alike the inquisitive gaze of the populace, and the oceasional bullets that came whizzing along from the neighboring affrays and duels. Within, however, all was a paradise All that wealth could procure, or taste devise, was here concentrated, as if by the magic of a genii. In the center of ‘the tesselated court-yard across the silvery epray of a fountain, giving life to the little rainbows above, and sustenance to the eela and polliw: that wiggled in the marble basin below. From the surrounding terrace @ grove of tropical trees and plants dis- pensed their fragrance and shade in the most voluptuous sweetness—the towering pino-apple the wide-spread magnolia, the white-blossome live-oak and the stately lemon, with a thick face-work of pumpkin and cocoa-nut vines net- ting them ther and dangling their golden fruit in evening breeze. In the midst of this Inxury epecially dwelt its soul, Eulalie—the beautiful quadroon Eulalie, a slender, dark-eyed, tawny-skinned, etherial being, whose sweetness reveled halo-like around her. Dressed in @ loose oriental costume, which revealed the exquisite contour of her matchless form, and reclining on a cushion of gold embroidered velvet, at the brink of the marble basin. the beautiful maiden amused herself by alternately feeding and caressing a iden macaw, which sat perched upon one of er lovely shoulders, whilst with her delicately ink-nailed toes she plashed the water in the in, and sported with the polliwogs. Behind her stood a sable African girl, of a dark black color, fanning her in mute respectful silence with an enormous turkey-tail plume. “Bobo!” issued from between Eulalie’s ru- by-set pearls ce Yes, missus!’ and the African bent over to “* Has he come yet, Bobo?” - PB or y bo?” asked the eseraph. “No, missus '’’ was the response “Then go and call that organ-grinder that I a taped to aunty at the corner, me 80 - tear pe Ass Pop-corn, candy, and a bot * Yes, missus?’ and Bobo went. - {11—THE GAMING SALOON. D & gorgeously gilt-mirrored and Turkey- carpete saloon, in the European quarter of the city, were assembied a promiscuous assemblage of lawyers, judges, editors, merchants, planters, pal) msec deeply absorbed in game eslled Pharoah. The tables were musical with the chinks of gold, and the rattling of the ivory cheeks ; but voices there werg bone, the players were too much absorbed in their hazardous — to give utterance to their feelings in At one of the tables there was but one lay- er; but so desperate was his yaine, that a arge crowd of spectators hemmed him in, fearcely jess interested than himself.

The excitement of the beholders was now intense—they were pale and breathless, like so many marble statutes, in their anxiety as to what would follow. “ °Tis weil !’’ exclaimed the Don through his set teeth, looking around at the crowd witha bitter smile ; that is all I have in bank just at present,”’ he continued ; “ but I have one more | gj stake, if you'll take it!” “* What is it ?”’ asked the keeper. “My girl Eulalie—the quadreon Eulalie, that I bought atthe St. Louis Arcade last Sun- day, for a hundred and fifty thousand '"° NO. 1,439.
