Cork inn’s galry. The Theatre. The Smithsonium
Billyuds. Mr. Addnm’s fust risit to the Presi
dent.
Dear Billy;
Billy, my sun, lemme giv you a pees iiv advise.
Efuvver you git tanguled with a wunimun, nuv-
ver do you talk no tiem to outie no nots, nor on-
tangle hutlieu: jes tar rite loos, and efyoit cannot
tar loos pull out yo nife and cut tiie Gorjun Not
aud travil. Put yo fingers in yo yeers and beer
nothi n shees got to say. Ef you dont, by jing !
you gone certin.
I kep on a bodin like a fool at the Mintzpi, the
konsequince uv which ware dezastrus in tiie ix-
tream. Me and Miz Hanscum—but nuvver you
mine about 1 and she. But tware very plesint
tinare at tiie Mintzpi. In during uv them days,
cum two married ladis thar, the bewtifulist in the
will. Etiiur wasanuf to nock a man down with
thare luvly boddy and mine, and both together
was morn anuf. In adisliin uv them, cum a little
Truugil, sister uv Miss Saindy, and she were one
uv them ingajin variety uv gearl that draws you
like a mustud plarstur or a wagun aud teem.—
Cum furthermo, a little gal from Indanner, like a
lied u v white clover, she were so far to look apun
and so sweet!
1 tell you, Billy, we all had fine tiems. Havin
piunjd into fashnubbil life I went on doun in the
vawtix and kep on doun, forgetting uv my skeam
forgettin of everything. 8ech is tiie way in Wasli-
intun, wliar peepil, stid uv tendin too tliar bizness
goes to spendin uv munny and injoin uv tliemself
like the wild. What with eatin and a drinkin and
a smokin uv sagars, and a goin to Kongis, and to
the Patint oftis. the Theatre, the Smithsonium and
Cockrun’s galry, it ware gloyus. Time tioo, and
ixpensis ware bevvy.
This heer Cock run's galry gits its naim from
a white marvel gal, rite start bodilynaked.stan-
din on a velvet stump in the fer eend uv a room
filled with painted pickchers. It’s mighty pritty,
Bill mighty pritty; and 1 rcckin about tiie best,
formdid gal in Enierriky. I wislit I cood a seen
her dressed for a Hop, and seen her set doun and
talk. I jetlgesheed a made aimpreshin-
A Hop, Billy are a danse they has every nite
in the parlersuvthe liig tavans. Oans, a roscul!
carried me the fust tiem to wun at the Mintzpi
Hons, and bleevin what he tole me, and lie doin
uv tiie saim, tliar we went a lioppin round tiie
room like a couple of niainyaks, stid uv dansin as
we ought to. Nuvver did I heer peepii iaf so senst
I wer born.
The Smithsonium, wliar tiie Clukuv the Wetlier
livs. with his insterments to mezure the ar and
the wrain an tellin nv a hot day from a cole won
vou goes to heer leckchnrs on vayus subjicts.—
Lecktchur air a kind uv sermun without any trim
mins, no tex.no singing uv Uims orprars ordoek-
soiogies.
I heer a man tliar lectchur which he had been
to the North Pole and staid thar two year. Oans
sais lie said the North Pole ware a.simmnn tree full
uv peckerwood nesses, hut I dident heer him say
so. Then again peepii goes to the Smithsonium
for nn resin at all excep twuz to nock roun and
look at a room full uv potrits uv Injuns. And I
observed it fer a cnyus fac that the peepii what
goes to this bilden in the day time, when tliar aitit
no leckteiuirs, is ginerullya yung man and lady,
which luvs mitely to be by themself, and the yung
lady is always verry moddig, warin nv a vail and
turnin uv her bed so you nuvver kin see her fais.
And I ubserved the saim uv young men and ladis
goin in pars and wandrin round in the seller uv
the Captul.
At the Theatre tliar is fo kind of plays. Thar’s
Trajiddy, and Kommedy, and Fars and Ballay.—
You’ve see a little nigger, when he thot nobody
wasn’t anotesin uv him, snatch a sweet tater out
the ashes and run roun the dumbly and goes to
gobblin uv it up quick befo some body cums and
him. You’v see how he biewd and sucked and ketch
puff and swet and and skrude his feechurs and
and popt his eye, cans the tater is so hot. Well,
that's Trajiddy—that's the way tiie main man,
which ginerally gits kild, duz and peepii sais its
very fine.
Y'ou’ve see a self-cunseeted, nonsensical po gal
jes from skool, cummin fer the fust time to a lit
tle gethrin, a candy pullin or the like uv that.—
Two or three bows gits to runnin on to her, and
you’ve see how she rigglcs and twisses and lafs,
and iafs, and lafs at nuthin at all. That’s Koui-
medy, and the main wummun duz izzackly
that very way, which ameuzis the peepii very
mutch.
As fer Fars, that’s a kind uv short kommedy,
No Nuthins and Plug Uglies from ft cummin in
liefer and killin uv him.”
“Jess so,” I sais. “Consoun thar soles! I’d like
too sea um try it while I’m heer.”
Thar were a roap with a tossil to the eend nv it
hanging by the dough which Oans ketchtitand
wringd a bell inside. Then a leetil Veneshin
bhnd in the imkdle uv the dough slatcht opin, ft
feilo looked thoo it and seein it were Oans opined
the iun dough and we walkt in. Rite into the mot
bewtiful poller, Billy, yon nvver see, fall uv furni-
cher, paintins nv the Porsiis and Marters and a
ladyhuggin uv a tollible nakid baby, a heap mo
tilings, and sum sevril gentiimen a reedin uv
newspapers.
>SJ, trimblin, “Whars he?”
S’e. “In tiie nex room.”
^ 1 lookt and thar was another poller prettier than
Lie ferst with heap ino pictchers and splendid look-
mgglasses; and enny quantity nv gentiimen settin
roun a tabil whar tliar war another gentiimen doin
uv sumthin I coodin sea. Up over the hed av
the gentilmun bcliine the tabil wer a paintin uv ft
tremendus Tiger, and I notist afterwnds thar
were a Tigee paintid on the carpit uv both pol-
Oans seein me iookin at the tiger sais:
“This hous is the privit rezidents uv the Minis
ter uv Bengali, and thats why hees got tho pict-
cher uv the Tiger, oeeaws the Tiger ar the em-
blim uv the Bengali peepii jes like the Egil is the
emblim uv the Emrrrykin peepii.”
“To be sho,” sais I, “but,” I sais, “aint thar a
mighty heap uv segar smoke here? and I heer a
f owful rattiin goin on at that ar tabil and I think
Bengali
is they
a boundin fer the mose part ef my reckollechshin t per.
distinguisht the soun uv a oath.’
“Oh!” he sais “ the Minn is ter
is a tine fello and lets evvry boddy
please.”
“Rite whar the Pressydint is?”
“Serting. the Pressydint dont keer.”
“But.’’ I sais, “who’s that little hallhedid yaller
man in the jnmp-jackit standin thar? Pears like
hees waitin on sumboddy.”
S’e “Tliats a very distinguished man. That's
Died Scott, the Envoy Kxtrawdinerry and Plen-
ypotencherry from Sain Dominger that the Spream
Kote made sich a fuss a bout.”
ST. “I think I has heerd the naim befo. He
aint white tho Oans.”
S e. “ Sertny not. Hees a Dommvnicker
man.”
“But he wasnt speckiid Billy he were regler
yaller like any mulatter.”
Oans made me take a seegar, and took me to a
side bode wliar thar wus evvry sort uv Iicker set
out and giv me a drink uv prime whiskey, and
tiien we took cheers by the tier and smoakt. I
listened good and I dont think I uvver heered sich
swarin in the necks room in my life ixceps in ole
Swomplanzis room that nite, when the ynng Kon-
grismen Joans and Bosin was thar. I told you uv
it, Billy. Then thar wer a kontinual ratlin ana
ratlin.
The man a setten beliine the tablil would say
“Awl ready?” “Awl set!” and then such annth-
going on, goodness! Oue fello sais “Hold!” anuth-
er sais “Hold yo bosses.” “Dont tern,” sais
another. “Take them rod wuns out'n the pot and
put um behine the tray.” “Let them run to the
dews.” And they kep a rattiin and a rattiin. A
fello sais ’-Roil,” aniither sais “Rip um, dam um.”
Then they ail shet up, and a minute after cum*
menst a enssin werse than uver.
“Bi G d, 1 raked him fo and aft.” “Took,
him dam him.” “Well, I fell fer menny a skad.”
•‘That’s a dam sweet Jack, aint it?” “Y’eas, a
h—11 uv a Jack.” “I've bin a buckin aginst tho
— thing ail nite, and d—me ef beaint took me
every tiem.” :‘I told you so; nobody but a
fool would keep on when seen um runnin wun
way all tiie tiem.” Well, I dont want nun uv yo
advise,” and so on, and so on, and sich a rattiin
and a rattiin.
I sais to Oans.
“In tiie naim uv cents whut’s themeenin us this
heer rackit?”
“Oh !” he sais, “that's nuthin but diplomesy.’,
Which lie ixplained diplomacy to meen tho
quoriin uv grate men when they tries the destiney
uv nashins with keards.”
“Well,’, S’I, “whose tiie man behine the tabil?”
“That's Mister Deeler.”
‘ Yeas, I heered um call him Mr. Deeler but
whoos Mr. Deeler?”
“The Minister from Bengali, uv koas.”
Well, he has a forrin look,” I sais.
Then he tole mo naims uv all uv/um bnt when
I assd him to inteijuice me to the Pressydint, he
tole mo to wait til the diplomesy ware over. I
assd him then to pint him out to me, and he pintid
at him, but I coodint see him owin to the crowd,
which kep increasin, tho sum went out okashing-
ally. The cussiu and the swarrin and the smok-
ein went on at the tabil.
Presiutly ole Mr. Dred Scott cumin with*
yung persin that sertny ware a nigger, tho Oans
swo wuz a Injuiu Prints from Centril Emeryky,
(eenv how he had wooly hair,) and Dred Scot he
tole supper ware reddy- Immejiately most uv um
quit tliar diplomesy and went in a ter room back.
Sum remaned at the tabil with Mr. Deeler from
Bengal. I wuz a watching uv um going in to
supper, when Oans he techt my arm and sais,
“Thar he is; dont let him see you a looking at
him.
And thar he set, Billy, the Cheef Majistrait UT
the Y’unitid Staffs, which I thought his har ware
gray, but twuz blac, died, Onas sed, for an evenin

serves me, in nasness uv idee and speacli. Sum
uv um is pritty funny tlio.
But the Ballay takes um all down Dingd ef it
don’t beet my time. Ballay is dansin on the^stage
and sich dansin! I’ll be blamed if uvver I see or
dreernd uv. I went to tiie fust one with Oans,
which sed we must git seets neer the stage, rite
by tiie pen whar the fiddlurs and men blowin on
tiie French horn and beetin nv drums—all uv
which is called Orkistur—sets. Tiie lady that was
goin to do tiie best dansin were naimed Sween-
yo-een-er Rollar. She were a bewtiful black-liar’d
Spannisli lady, and soon arfter we set down, and
the music had playd and the curtain rolled up, she
cum out like nuthin you uvvur imajined. Mag-
niffysent Billy, with a par uv wings to her nakid
shoulders. Her frockjwere spangild with dimunds,
it were white is a elowd and fine is a fog, and I
wislit I may be derned ef it cum to her knees. I
skeersly no what I shell call them things in a la
dy which I shell call laags in a man, but what nv
ver they is, iu her cais they was splendid, eakul
most to them thar uv Cockruns marvel gal, and
malrin the cole chills run over you to look at
um.
Well in she went a skippin and ahoppia and a
pirootiu aroun on the flatform uv tiie stage, like a
hurnmin herd, and pritty soon she cum nte iu
limit nv mo cleen to the edge uv the stage facin
uv tho congegashun, she shot her foot rite smack
up to tiie seelin. Ef you had a stobd a derk tboo
and thoo my hart, it coodint uv junipt no mo than
when she dun it. I leetil mo to faintid. Oans he
lafft rite out, and tiie congegashun borrawd and
clapt, and stompt like tiie fury. She kep on a doin
uv it, and a fellow drest tite is his skin cum out
and flung her over his head and dun I dunno what

than befo.
I were so shamed I darsent hardly look up, but
tiie ladis and gentiimen blonging to the first fam-

kinjedge uv yo oan kunclnshuu in the case
what must be the nacher of the Washiutun so-
siety.
In addishin to these heer amewsments the men
peepii uv Washiutun have a way uv a spendin uv
thar spar tiem in the day that is very kuyus. It is
a playin uv a gaim by tiie nain uv a gaim nv biil-
yuds. They takes a tremendous pianner and
takes out all tho insides—the music fixins—and
kivers the hole top uv it with a green cloth, makin
a big tabil uv it with the edge of the tabil turned
up like the edges of a stew pan. At every won
uv tiie cornders and in the middle uv the two long
sides uv the tabil is put a rettykewl, makin uv six
rettykewis in all. On the tabil thar is fo bails, too
white and too wred. One uv tlio white halls is
got a fly spec on it, which fer tiie resin they calls
it a black ball. The felloes that’s a goin to play, j
Fergittin uv what Oans tole, I stared at him like
ennything, and he kiecht me. When he walled hift
his great big blac eyes at me, Billy, I ware reddy
to giv rite up, thar wer sumthin so overporin in
the idee uv bein lookt at by a Pressydint, I eoodn
keep my eyes often him, and, seein what a fool I
ware, he got up and cum rite at me. I were goin
- to run. but Oans hilt me.
Sais he, in the plesint vois uv affability and a
smilin at the saim tiem. Sais he,
“Wontyou walk in and take supper. You’ll
find a verry good supper in the necks room.—
Walk in.”
S’I. “I’am atliousin tiems ableeged, but ef
you'll please to ixeuse me sir, I aint hongry.
“Weil,” he sais, “walk in with yo fren and taik
a cup uv coffee, a glass uv wine, or you and your
fren kin taik stitnc thing here at the side-bode.”
Oans lie farly pulled me away. I dideut want-
go a tail, the Pressydent lie talkt so frenly, and
then agin I desided to see him on privit bizness
you kno, but Oans he sed it ware knutrary to
ettyket to see him ou privit biziness befo we eet.
Well, we went inter suppur, and by the iivins!
they had thar mighty nigh every that ewer went
doun the nake uv man—beef, muttin, vension,
ham. terky, dux (uv a kine they oalls oanvis bax)
fouls, osliters. homny. pesurves, pickil, vayus
kines uv bred, inclewding uv bucawheat calces
and waffuls, selery, plums, amuns, filbuts, and
everything in the werld to drink, from tee up to
tiie squirtin kine uv wine they call shampane.—
The diplomesy men, sum uv hoom lookt like I had
seen um befo in Kongiss, was talkin uv polytix,
cussin and eeting like the devvil. and me and
Oans jes wadid rite in aud eet and drink the squir
tin wine tel we like to bustid. Nuvver did I iujoy
sech a ineel befo, tiie nietnry uv it lingers with me
evin yit.
Arfter supper, feelin fine and fred uv nothing,
I walkt up to Mr. Dred Scott, the yaller Dommy
nicker man, and tole him I wantid to sea the ole
man privately. I called tho Pressydint the “ole
man,” jest to show Scot how I warnt no stranger
in tiie plas and felt apun turms uv equolity with
enny man.
Scot he sed tiie ole man ware gone to bed—
retide for the nite, and Oans he cummin up about
that tiem giv the Envoy Ixstrawdinnery from
Sain Dominger a quarter, and what astonisht me,
took it, and sed we must “call agin.” And we
left without me seein uv the Pressydint in privit
a tall. But I were glad to hav seen him enny way
becaws be perduced a favable impreshin upun me.
He were sertenty verry amebil and perlite.

on the right bank of the river, a few miles below

Louis Bringier, tiie present venerable Surveyor
