Pulaski Housb, Savannah, Deo. 11.
I rise somewhat refreshed after a brief but
sweet repose of three or four hours, having been
up until a verylato hour lost night in atten
dance upou one of the most costly and uiagum-
cent balls ever given in tbo Southern country.
It is estimated that tlioro were at loasttwo
thousaud porsous in attendance, and among tbo
number every slave State in tho Union wus rep
resented by Homo of its fairest daughters and
noblest sous. To attempt a minute description
of tho ball room would be u task occupying
more time than 1 urn allowed previous to tho
closing of tho mail, and tar too much spaco, 1
am assured, for your little sheet.
Some idea may bo formed of the splendor and
vastuess of tho luto, when 1 inform you tbutits
outiro coat to tho citizens of Savannah will not
bo less tlinu $10,000, of which amouut, I un
derstand Charles Green, Esq., of tho house of
Andrew Low & Co., contributes $1800—ho Wiv
ing agreed to rnako good uuy deficiency that
might occur, utter nil tbo oilier subscriptions
hod been paid in. No better or more uppro-
,riute spot could havo been selected than the
mmcitso depot of the Georgia Central Railroad,
for tills really splendid affair. Indeed there
wus no other building in tho city that would
havo accommodated tbo guests. Tho 11AU of
tho Dopot is ono of the most costly and com-
? !eto l oversaw. The secretary uwt Treasurer's,
resident und Superintendent’s oiflces,arokopt
as nice, neat und clenu, as any parlor iu private
mansions. Thcso served us reception rooms for
ladies, where'shawls, hoods and wrappings
were deposited, and wuoro tbo mirror was con
sulted, liair udjusted, uud the sweetest uud
most charming expressions of counteuauco
assumed. On tbo reverse sido of tho spacious
hall, was a room supplied with tonsoriul pro
fessors,- who attcuded to tho hirsute appendages
of tho gontlemen, received their hats, clouRa,
shawls and overcoats, giving cheeks for the
same, aud creating upou tho mind of tho visitor
tho pleasant scusatiou that ho would certainly
get his own property when bo thought proper
to leave.
Tho Ball Room wus over throe hundred feet
in length and about 80 wide, docomted with
tho flags of nil nations, und beariug upon its
walls the names of every Slave Btuto in the
Confederacy, luindsomely encircled arouudtbe
coat of arms of tho respective State which it
represented. Mottoes, emblems, cars in mo
tion, ships with sails all set, und various other
devices, etc., decorated the vast room. Under
the coat of arms of Virginiu was paiuted iu a
scroll the “Bauner Delegation," aud immedi
ately over it was suspended a well executed
and correct likeness of George Washington.—
Every Virginian’s heart swelled with emotions
of pride and patriotism, us he passed this por
tion of the room, and observed the marked re
spect which the Savuuuahians had puid to the
••Old Dominion," God bless her l
The floor of the Hull was laid especially for
this occasion, at a cost of some $400, and paiu
ted in circles to tho number of seveuty-tlve
—each circle accommodating a "set" in the
dance. To tho left of the room a largo orches
tra box had beeu erected in tbo form of a boat
but elevated several feet, and underneath, the
words, "Commerce und Manufactures, two of
the chief elemeuts of a Country’s greatness."
Auorchestra, numbering some fifteen members
gave out excellent music for tho dance, while
just opposite upou a platform, stood a noble
mulatto, with a silver spcaklug-trumpet to his
mouth, announcing the figures to tho hundreds
who wero rapidly whirling through the giddy
mazes of the dance. Add to all this 400 gas
burners, introduced specially for the occasion,
and shedding their brilliant light upou several
huudred of tbo most lovely daughters of the
South, escorted by as many noble gallants, and
the reader may form some idea ot the beauty,
the splendor, tho gorgeousness ot the scene.
The Bupper was all that the most fastidious
could desire. Wild and domestic fowl*, game
of eveiy conceivable kind meats of the most
tender and choice qualities, champagne,madolra
and sherry wines, cakes, fruits, creams, ices,
jellies, bon mots and candies were spread in
the greatest prolusion. So very abundant had
the Committee provided for this department,
it was noted as a somewhat singular fact, that
though the supper commenced at 11 o’clock, no
man who called for any article on the table at
three, failed to get it and that too in abun
dance.
The whole affair, viewed in any aspect, is an
irrefragible evidence of the unbounded liberali
ty and hospitality of the citizens oi Savannah,
and will be recollected by all who witnessed or
participated in the festivities of the occasion,
to the latest period of their lives.
fort were still burning, though tbs footsteps or
passengers had died away for some time on its
pavemont—when a young man approached the
bridge from the town with hasty strides. At
the suite time another tuaM, advanced iu years,
was coiniug towards him from .Saobsouhauaeu,
the woll-knowu suburb on the opposite side of
the river. Tho two hid not yet met, when the
latter turned from his path, and went towards
the parapet, with the evident iuleution of leap
lug from the bridge into the Main.

• You think right, sir; but wliut is that to
you?’
•Nothing at all: l was ouly going to ask
you to do me tho favor to wait u few minutes,
aud ullow me to Join you. I.a us draw close to
each other,and, urmiu arm, take the leap
togotlier. Tho idea of making the Journey with
a perfect stranger, who has chanced to come
for tho sumo purpose, is rcuily rather Interest
ing. Indeed, 1 have uot experienced anything
so excitiug forsome time; audl should not
have thought that, iu my lust hour, so pleasant
an occurrence would happen. Come, sir, for
nmuy years I havo not made a request to any
buniuu being: do not roitiao nit- thwuue,
which must be my lust. 1 unsure you, i do uot
remember buviug ever spent no many words
about auy request whatever.'
So saying, tho young mun held out his baud;
bis companion took it, und ho tbcu uoutiuued,
with a kind of enthusiasm, ,‘rJo be it: arm in
arm—aud now lot us be quick about it; it is
really cbormlug to feel u human heart near

you arc, good or bad—come, let us down.’
The elder of tho two,'who had at first been
in ho great a hurry to uud his existvucu iu the
waters ot tho liver, now restrained the impet
uosity ot tho younger.
“Stop, sir/' sun.' he, while Ids weary eye

be too young to leave life in this way. 1 am

•Bright prospects i lu the midst of rotten
ness aud decay, falsehood and deceipt, vice and
corruption! Come, let us make au end of it.’
•Aud so youugl Tour experience must have
been very sud to make you consider all crea
tures which have the human form a brood of

•Oh, aerpeuts are uoble beings compared

• Well, the first one I have found already.
But if life presents itself to yon in hues so
br.ght, I am surprised you should wish to

• On, 1 am only n poor old sickly man, un*
able to earn anything, and who can endure no
longer that bis only child, an angel of a daugh

him, and even sometimes to procure him luxu
ries. No, sir, to allow this longer, 1 must be u
tyrant, a burourlau.’

terrified; ‘ you have an only daughter sacrific

The Lictubb Last Nioht.—We are pained
to learn that while Dr. Charters was In the
midst ol an interesting lecture, on las. evening,
to quite a respectable auditory, he was sud-
dsnly brought to a conclusion by the announce
ment that bis wife bad been taken dangerously
IU. We hope the cause of this disappointment
may be short in its duration, and thatnnder
more favorable circumstances we may hear in
M from the Doctor a dissertation upon o sub
ject be is so competent to handle with ability
and interest.
Southern Conventions.
Borne of our exchanges aro disposed to com
plain that the late Southern Commercial Con
vention accomplished little, and question tho
propriety of future assemblages of the kltnl.
Thoso who make theAn complaints, buso them
upon radically false views. They mistake the
scope of such meetings. They are disappointed,
because their expections wero altogether Irra
tional. The Convention has met and adjourn
ed, and became it did not out of nothing pro
vide the means of constructing steamships for
two or three lines; did not raise money to ouild
the Bonthern Paclilo Railway; did not estab
lish manntacturea throughout the South; be
cause in floe it foiled to do a half a dozen things
which capital and time alone can do—wo are
told that this gathering of a thousand delegates
was, after all, but a "vain show.’’
These cavilers should remember that South
ern Conventions have no panacea for Southern
ills—no Morrison or Brandeth pill for tho South
(to use the words of Carlyle) which ouco gulp
ed down, all will go well—whether we sleep or
wake.
But we contend that short of furnishiug such
a pill these assemblages are valuable. They
are valuable for tho discussions which they cull
forth, for the {information which they elicit, for
the errors which the dissipate and the energies
which they awaken—valuable for what they
do and for what they fall to do.
Why the decisive vote cast against tho re
opening ortho African slave trade was worth
all that the late Convention cost. Who does
not know that much of the capital lately em
ployed by the Northern free soil leaders for
doping their Mowers and exciting sectional
animosity, has been furnished them by the
suggestion that the South was determined to
go into the importation of slaves, from Africa.
That cock will no longer fight. The nearly
nnanimoos voice of the convention in the ne
gative moat silence henceforth, as regards this
point, all the Fremoutcra who have not adopted
the motto that a lie well stuck to, is as good
asthetrstb.
Not leu important, as tho future will
prove, was the letter or Seuator Toombs,
called forth by the meeting of tho convention
if aa ws believe, it shall furnish the basis of a
new syitem or Southern financial legislation
—valuable and far reaching in it&rcsults.
And yet there were but incidents connect!
sd with tbs late imposing assemblage in thii
city. For the full fruit of its labors, M of
those which preceded and those which art
to follow (for others will assuredly follow)
we most lobl; to after years.

“ Wo again repeat that, onco wc have the

(CONCLUDED THIS AFTERNOON.)
Origin of the "Malaxoff.”—The antiqua
ries of Sebastopol have madoa curious dw-
covery. Everybody baa heard of the Malakutf
bill upon which was built the tower, uow be
come so famous. Such au immortality scarce
ly xerned destined this name, which was that
of a certain Lieut Malakoff, dismissed from
the Russian Navy on account of Incorrigible
drunkenness. Faithful to his passion, after
his dismissal ho set up a grog shop on this spot,
which was frequented by sailors. These latter,
iu a fit of sarcastic gaiety, gave to the hill iu
question tho name ot their tap-master, which,
by the accident of a memorable Hicgc having
taken place near tho spot, has now become
immortal.
The King of Denmark's lire says tho Berlin
correspondent of the London Times, is worth
a.very few years’ purohase, his tenure of the
throne worth still fower, and there is every
reason to make the many reports of his ap
proaching abdication very probable. His
heir, Prince Ferdinand, is already 04 years of
S ;e. and if he mount the throne uud wio Id
o sceptre conformably to the absolutist feel
ings and principles ho is known to doomss, he
will infallibly bring about a revolutionary cri
sis.

The Naples correspondent or the Manchester

Plenipotentiary, of theArgentlue Republic, has
been lately in Naples, ou some secret mis
sion, which puzzled a great many
here but which 1 believe to be with 1

for tho colonization of his country.
A London correspondent of the Manchester
Guardian writes: Lord Palmerston is. Iam

best possible spirits. He is greatly pleased
with the way tho pabllo have approved or the
manner in which he ash exeiuiscd the unpar

A Sentiment.—The Ladies: May their vir
tues exceed even the magnitude or their skirts
while their faults are still smaller than their
bonnets.
The Washington correspondent uf tbo Penn
sylvania Inquirer says that Speaker Biuka
stood in bis plnuo and administered tho oath to
Gen. Whitfield, while it is customary to des
cend the steps and receive thu uew member in
a less moral aud more courteous manner—ad
ding :
"fills, however, may lmvo arisen from the
(act that, just before, Mr. Hanks had received a
decided discourtesy from Mr. Houston of Ala
bama, one of theacknowled Democratic* lenders
and a gentleman who Is spoken of as likely to
boa member of Mr. Buchanan's cabinet. The
general iucliug of tho House and tho spcctutora
on this occasion was decidedly iu favor of Mr.
Banks, and Mr. Houston lost easto greatly by
tho course ho saw fit to pursue.”
Wc do not believe ono word of tho ubjve in
relation to Mr. Houston—but thiuk it moro
likely that Mr. Speaker Bank * should havo lost
caste (if ho had auy to lose) for not having suf
ficient of the propriety and courtesy of u^geutle-
mau about him to perform grace fully in his
pabllo character an act that was personally un
pleasant to him.
Even If Mr. Houston bad insulted Mr. Banks
it was no reason for tho exorcise of discourtesy
towards Mr. Whitfield. Tho facta of tho case,
we suspect, are nimply these—Mr. Banks wus
ill-tempered at Mr. Whitfield’s success, and
was ill-manucrcd enough to show it.—[Eds.

The Junior editor of tbeLouina Eagle, (Ala.,)
of last week expresses himself os follows:

Georgia Wins.—We are indebted to Col.
Sullivan, of Amerious, for uu excellent bottle
of wine, manufactured by himself, from the
dark variety of tho Scuppernong grape. Its
flavor and body are good, its complexion at
tractive. and its effects most salutary. Col. S.
thinks this variety of grupo on many accounts
superior to most others. It is a heo and sore
bearer, ripens late, and is suited to almost any
location, damp or dry. The grape culture in
the South is likely to receive Increased attca*

And with what patieuce, what sweetness,
what love, what perseverance l I see her sink
ing under her toil und her deprivations, and
uot a word of complaint escapes from her
pallid lips. She works and starves, and still
mis always a word of love, an affectionate
smile for ner father.’
' Sir, and you want to commit suicide! Are
you mad V ,,
• Dare 1 murder that augel ? The thought
pierces my heart like a dagger,’ said the old
mau, sobbing.
1 Sir, you must have a bottle of wine with
me; 1 see a tavern open yonder. Gome, you
must tell me your history; and, if you have no
objection, I will then tell you mioe. But this
much I may say at once—there is uo occasion
for you to leap into the river. I am a rich, a
very rich mau; and if things really are as you
represent, >our daughter will uo longer have
to work, aud you shall not starvo.”
The old man allowed himself to be dragged
along by his companion. In a few minutes,
they were seated at a table in the tavern, with
full glosses berore them, aud each examining
curiously tbo features of tho other.
Refreshed uud comforted by tbo efiecta of
tho wiue the old man began thus:
"My history is Hoon told. I am a mercantile
uiuu; but fortune never favored me. 1 had uo
money myself, uud I loved uud married a poor
girl. I could never begin business on my own
account. I took u situation as book-keeper,
which I held until I became useless from age,
uud younger mpn were preferred before me.
Thus my circumstances were always circum
scribed, but my domestic happiness was com
plete. My wile was an anget of love, kindness
and fondness, good und pious, active and af
fectionate; and my daughter is the truo image
of bur mother. But ago and illness have brought
uie to the lust extremity, aud my conscience
revolts against tho idea of the best child in tho
world sacrificing her life for au old, useless fel
low. 1 caunot have raucb.Ionger to live; and 1
hope tho Irerd will pardon me lor cutting off a
few days or weeks from my life, in order to
preserve or prolong that of my dear Bertha.”
"You are a fortuimto mau, my friend," ex
claimed tho young man; "1 havo never seen a
moro fortunate one. What you call your mis
fortune is sheer nonseure, and can bo cared at
once. To-morrow 1 will make my will, and
yon shall bo tho heir uf all my possessions, uud
to-morrow night 1 will tako lire leap from the
Mala llrucko alone. But before I leave this
world, I must see your liorthn, for 1 am anxious
to look upon ono who is worthy the name of a
human beiug.”
"But, sir, wlmt can have made you so un-
happy at this early age?” said the old man,
moved with compassion.
‘I believe it was my father’s wealth. Iam
the only son of one of the richest bankers of
Fruuklort i when I mention my name, yon will
be ut once convinced of the truth of my asser
tion. My father died five yaara ago, and left
uio the heir to an immense fortune. From that
moment, every one that bas come in contact
with mo 1ms endeavored to deceive aud defrond
mo. I was a child iu innocence, trusting and
confiding; my education had not been neglect
ed, und i possessed my mother’s loving heart.
I endeavored to ussociute myself in a anion of
lovoand friendship with good and generous
jeoplc, but I found only hypocrites and impos-
ors, who pretended trieudship for no other
purpose than to partake of my wealth, and en
joy themselves at my expense. My friends, or
rather the villains whom I mistook for friends,
aud to whom I opened my heart, betrayed me,
add then laughed at my simplicity; but in time
i gathered experience, und my heart was filled
with distrust. I was betrothed to a rich heiress,
possessed of all fashionable accomplishments
i adored her with enthusiasm; her love,
thought, would repay me for every disappoint- lUchardaon -
meat. Butlaoouaaw she was nothing more
than a proud fool, who wished to make me a
slave, aud yoke all other men besides to her
triumphal chariot. 1 broke off the engagement,
and selected a poor but charming girl—a sweet,
innocent being, aa I thought, who would be
my life’s own angel. Alas! found her one
day bidding adieu, with tears und kisses, to a
youth whom she loved; she had accepted me
for my wealth only. Uy peace of mind vanish
ed; I sought diversion in travel; everywhere 1
found the same hollowness, the same treachery
the same misery. In abort, I become disgnatef
with life, aud resolved to put an end this night,
to the pitiable force.'
•Unfortunate young man.’ Mid the other,
with tears or sympathy, ‘how deeply I pity
you I I confess I have been moro fortunate than
you. I possessed a wife and a daughter, who
came forth pure and immaculate from the hand
or the Creator. The one has returned to him
in tne whiteness of her tool, and aowlUtho
other.’
•Will you give-me your address, old rnao^hd
K rmit me to visit your daughter to-morrow?
it you must also give mo your word of honor
that yuu will not Inform her, or insinuate to
her in any manner whatever, that I am a rioh
man.’ Tha old man bald out Ida bawd.
An Bnebanted Island.
A wonderful stream la the river Time,
As it runs tbro'igh lbs realms of tear*,
With a faultless rhythm and s musical rhyme,
With a broader sweep and a surge sublime,

Where the .ofo.-t »r olr* are playing;

There are triukets and Irenes of hair.
There are fragment* of song that nobody .-iugs,
And a part of an Infaut’a prayer;
Tbore’a a lute unEwept, and a harp without ttrkug*
There are broken vows, aud pieces or rings.
And the garments alio used in wear.
There are hands that aru waved wheu the fairy
