FROM NEW ORLEANS.
New Orleans, Jannary 28 —A mass [meeting is
for Saturday evening of all who value the
welfare of tho city and State, and are opposed to
the financial schemes now pending before the Leg
islature to increase the harden* of the people, de
preciate th* bonds and ruin Um credit of the State,
and create monopolies to eat out the substance of
the people and cripple commerce.
The Picayune aays: “We have information that
another of those astounding acts which have char-
arterised the present Legislature, designed to pil
lage still mass our much-robbed State Treasury,
has been soneooted, and is now being rapidly and
as secretly as possible, matured into law. It is
known as the Bank Bffi, and contemplates the issue
of from three to nine millions of bonds in favor of
banks, by way of indemnifying them for
looses incurred during the late wax in aid of the
Confederate cause. If anything scold now astonish
this oomnuafay in the conduct of our highly loyal
and virtuous radical Legislature, to recompense
public banks for aiding the rebel cause would do it;
but, in this instance, our radical members have bo-
come oblivious of the Constitution under the per
suasive influence of liberal douctera for votes.”

one’s spoon in the dishes of these things which
remained pn the table. The last dish of all waa
a tureen of boiled rioe, in whioh we all dipped
our spoons alternately with a dish of sweetmeat.
A email basin of compote of cherries was then
put before everybody, and we had done dinner
according to Egyptian habits.
I must confess that I never in my life was
more disgusted, or felt more Inclined to be sick,
than I did during this meal. I had had nothing
but a cup of ooffee in the morning, and the
taste of these extraordinary dishes, as well as
the sight of all the fingers dipped into the dishes
of thick sour cream, or a dish of preserves and
the next moment tearing off a bit of meat or
sausage from the same piece of which I felt my
self in dnty bound to eat, was really too nasty.
No wine or water was served during dinner; so
when the grande princesse offered me some
liquid in a kind of tortoise shell cup I seized
hold of it with great delight, in hope Of some
thing to wash down the things X bad been
swallowing bon gre vied gre, and took, a large
spoonful of it, thinking it was water and syrup,
when, to my horror, it proved to be some sort
of sour stuff—vinegar, with an addition of herbs
and cucumbers—and I could not help making an
awful face, to the great amusement of the whole
party. A “i
h.dJ ATTEB THE DESERT—THE DANCE.’ ■
We now got up from the floor,: and a slave
then put me into, or rather handed me to, an
arm chair, and brought me a silver basin, very
deep, and with a.small dish in the middle full of
holes 1 We were given a bit tit soap, and while
rubbing onr fingers with the soap the slave
poured water the whole time over onr hands,
and this ran through at once into the dish. _ Wc
then got a very smart towel, with a border richly
embroidered in gold, to dry our fingers with.
Then' we went again io procession to the large
drawing room or hall we had before passed
through, and here we all sat down on a.large
divan. Music was then heard, and in marched
about twenty musicians in uniform, like a mili
tary band, wearing- trousers and. frock ooeta,
with gold buttons, etc., qnite European, the
musicians being all girls thus dressed out. The
music was not famous—flutes, a couple of cor
nets, a violin and a guitar—-stiB they played
rather nicely, though .the .tunes vreiaaot very
pleasing to the eir. About fourteen girls now
came in dancing, some dressed in yellow satin,
embroidered with silver, and others in black
oatin, embroidered with gold. They all Wore
bodies of silver gauze, with a belt of gold band,
very loose, and a large clasp or star of diamonds
and precious stones hanging down in front.
Their dance was more curious than pretty,
though some movements were graceful enough.
Others, on the contrary, were simply frightful.
For instance, they had si way of moving and
shaking their heads and other parts of their
bodies ail separately, as if no one part belonged
to the Other parts, which was qnite monstrous.
These poor girls danced in this manner for
nearly.two boors and when wa expressed some
pity for them we were answered, “Ob, they are
never tired. They can dance like this for five
hours at a time.” They looked, however, much
exhausted and one seemed very nearly fainting.
ooffee, cups and DIAMONDS.
While this dancing was going on coffee was
served several times. A slave brought in a tray
covered with black velvet cloth about a yard
and a half wide, all embroidered with, pearls
and enormous uncut emeralds, and in the mid
dle one enormous diamond star qnite five inches
wide. The cover was lifted off and under it
were small cups, like egg cups, which were fill
ed with coffee and handed round one by one by
a slave, another slave following and offering
one of their long Turkish pipes, aet with dia
monds, or a cigarette with the most beautiful
holder, all one mass of precious stones, the
month piece itself being one l«rge ruby or
emerald. The cups, too, were a mass of dia
monds.
We found the old princess, who had not ac
companied us up stairs, waiting for ns below.
We there sat'down in the same way aa we had
done before, and music and dancing again be-.
gan,only a new set of slaves had taken the plaoe
of the former ones. I did not see a single real
ly pretty face, and hardly even a good looking
one among them. However, they told us that
there are a couple of pretty ones, but by some
reason or other were not allowed to show to
day. Altogether there are about five hundred
slaves in the harem, and about twenty of them
were always standing at a short distance from
onr chairs whereever we went. They were
dressed in the most ridiculous and tasteless
maimer in the European fashion, but no two
alike. One had a bright yellow dress, with a
green velvet jackot; another a green velvet
skirt with a red or bine jacket; and so oil
Some had hideous round hats with bright flowers
and feathers; some had beads in their hair.
In short they were dressed in the most vulgar
manner it is possible to imagine. A great many
had diamond ornaments, earrings ana broaches,
and a few had the Viceroy’s picture aet in dia
monds on their shoulders. Ooffee wee served
very often.
A slave carrying the tray stopped in the mid
dle of the room, just in front of us, while An
other carried the ooffee pot, hanging by three
long silver chain* over a sort of lamp, just like
the censers used in Oatholio churches. Another
slave lifted off the jewelled velvet doth, which
hong down in front, end ponied coffee into the
small, diamond cape whim wen again landed
to ns, each cup by a different slave; the one
with the tray standing the whole time in the
middle of the room tiu the empty cope were re
placed.
TOIUCra AND IXWEUL
The dr eases which the Princesses won to-day
were splendid, as far asjeweb go. One hadoet
a white moire antique dress, richly embroidered,
nearly ill over, with gold; another had on a red
one, and blue and gray were worn by the young
er ones, all equally embroidered.
The shape of their dress was very odd; it
seemed to me equally long in front aa behind,
where it formed a long train. The skirt was cut
open abont two feet on each aide, showing their
leg* end feet wrapped np in soma soft, white
material or other. The train In front was pawed
behind, end their walk in oonaequenoe at this
was anything but graceful; fax. having this
thick, heavy gown between thru tegs, they

was done in the European fashion, but with
enormous tiaras of oorcieta, very heavy, though

beautiful than another. Necklaces, too, with

■While thb ladies of the Eastern States ate
agitating strongly for “Women’s Rights,” the
women of Halt Lake have given a novel turn to
the movement by assembling in mass meetico
to make a declaration for “Man’s Rights ” u
one of the speakers stated it. The introduction
ofOragin’s biH for the suppression of polygamy
into the Senate, and of Cullom’s bill for the
same object into the House, has called forth i
monster demonstration of the Mormon women
in favor of the peculiar institution. Strange as
it may sonnd, it is nevertheless a fact, that the
Tabernacle in this city was d< nsely packed -with
women who had congregated to express them,
selves on the bills referred to, and to declare
their unqualified adhesion to polygamy as prac
ticed in Utah, r .ii
The proceedings were conducted in the ordi.
nary style of conventions, differing only in the
absence of acrimonious discussion, and a rmitj
of sentiment on the subject which they ha]
assembled to discuss. The meeting opened
with prayer, offered up by a wife of Brighaa

Mr. Geo. Dnnford, formerly of SL Louis, w«
elected Secretary, and after a few preliminary
remarks by the lady presiding, a committee vu
appointed to draft resolutions expressive of th
sense of the meeting on the bills. The com
mittee reported the following, which were mm.
imously adopted:
“Resolved, That we, the ladies of Salt Lab
Cit'yj in mass meeting assembled, do manifest
our indignation, and protest against the bill be.
fore Congress, known as the Cullom bill, the
the one known as the Cragin bill, and all dzi-
lar tells, expressions and manifestoes.
“2. That we consider the above named bib
foul blots on our mtional escutcheon—absnri
documents—atrocious insults to the Honorable
Executive of the United States Government,
and malioious attempts to subvert the rights of
civil: and religious liberty!
“3. That we do hold sacred the Constiiatioi
bequeathed us by our forefathers, and ignort
with laudable woman jealousy every act of tho*
men to whom Abe responsibilities of govern
ment have been entrusted, which is calculate]
to destroy its efficacy.
“4. That we unitedly exercise every moral
power and every right which we inherit as the
daughters of American citizens, to prevent the
passage of such bills, knowing that they would
inevitably cast a stigma on our republican gov
ernment by jeopardizing tho liberty and lire
of its most loyal and peaceable citizens.
“5. That in onr candid opinion, the presents
tion of the aforesaid .bills indicates a mani/ea
degeneracy of the great men of onr nation; and
their adoption would presage a speedy downfil
and ultimate extinction of the glorious pedestal
of freedom, protection and equal rights, estab
lished by our noble ancestors.
“ 6. That we acknowledge the institutions of
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
as the only reliable safeguard of female virtm
and innocence, and the only sure protectios
against the fearful sin of prostitntion and its at
tendant evils, now prevalent abroad, and, n
such, we are and shall he united with our breth
ren in sustaining them against each and eveij
encroachment.
“ 7. That we consider the originators of the
aforesaid bills disloyal to tho Constitution, art
unworthy of any position ot any trust in mj
office wltich involves the into rests of onr nation
“ 8. That in case the bills in question ahoald
pass both houses of Congress, and become a fat
by which we shall be disfranchised as a Territo
ry, We, the ladies of Salt Lake City, shall exert
all our power and influence to aid inthe support
of our own State government”
