‘THE EVENING STAR. A Wrerern Barsecue—The barbecued meat wbich gives the characteristic name to these parties, is the sweetest meat, from the manner in which itis cooked, andthe appetite the occasion usually gives, ever cooked by mor- taLhands, the delicate brown aad crisp mor- sels reminding one of the glowing descriptions given by Charles Lamb in his dissertation on the roast pig. The mode of preperted this Western country masterpiece of cuisine is the simplest. No iron or metal of any kind comes im contact with the flesh during th: process, and no stone-coalor smoking wood is used. 5 A deep pit is dug in the eacth some six feet long ‘by three wide and four deep, in which a bed oF live coals is thrown. Choice cuts of beef, mutton and young pork, sometimes & whole or jamb, barbed on a long thin rae 4 pop- lar cue, are placed in rows scross the pit, and slowly turned over the live coals by swarthy black cooks, who swab the dripping pieces from time to time, with rags fastered on a stick and dipped in batters In this Yay the meat is don’ «owly through and through, and pr burned. Roast lamb, pig and beef, barbecued together with home-made bread and coffee, make a repast, eaten with the ap- petite which the excitment of the drive and the conntry give, which, in our estimation, rivals the embrosial and dramatic feasts of tne Olym- pians. ——_—_ ——_——_ Stxcurar Errecr or Suppen ELrcTRic Laieut.— During the thunder-shower on Mon- day evening of last week.
