A slave then offered each of ns a silver basin to wash oui hands in before we sat down to dinner. We were each given a sort of tortoise shell spoon, with alarge coni branch as a handle, bat neither knife nor fork, and then, at a sign from the old Princess, we all dipped our spoons into the tureen together.

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.” Extraordinary Weather all Abound.—The report from the Pacific Railroad for the 20th of January is o-.ai the track is clear through to Ban Francisco.

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 oonld only waddle along like dads*. Their hair was done in the European fashion, but with enormous tiaras of oorcieta, very heavy, though splendid stones, on their heads; one really more beautiful than another. Necklaces, too, with diamonds aa big as a shilling piece, and di of diamonds cut round like crystals and qi THE UTAH WOMEN. Thty Hold a Grand Haas Meeting and p.„ . Resolutions tm Favor of Polygamy. Salt Lake Correspondence of the St. Louis Repub. liran. ] .Id tttiw !] ■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 Young, named Zinah D., which was followed br the election of Mrs. 8. M. Kimball, Presidentea of one of the female relief societies of the city, to the chair. Mrs. Lydia D. Alder, daughter it 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” This was followed by addresses from Urt.
