Adosm the western reaches;
The leave* in flame and crimson glow
Upon the nodding beeches.
Tha pathway there acrom tha mead
And through tbs field of clover,
Half hidden lies with feathery weed
And dry grass covered eTer.
In all around we ace decay;
Our summer world is dying,
And softly, sadly, night and day,
"Farewell.” the winds are sighing.
Farewell, farewell to summer leaves

Yet, look across the meadow land,
With its low-lying sedges,
Past where those gorgeous maples (tend
Past all those glistening hedges;
Past where the cobbing river lies,
Beneath its arching bridge*,
To where those low hills meet the skies
In gold and rasaet ridges;
Just over where the rising mist
Like fretted silver gleaming,
With seaa and stream* of amethyst
A fair, new world lies dreaming.
There mountain peaks and tunny isles.
With purple vineyards trailing,'
And past them all, for miles and uiilea,
A fleet of ship* ia sailing.
The while we gaze the seaa expand
Into a boundless ocean,
And all Srjnod the smiling land
Awakes to life and motion.
The shepherds climb the glowing liilla,
Their snowy flocks attending,
And children down the sparkling rills
Their tiny boats are sending.
Red wine and flower* are flashing bright
In costly vase and chalice,
And etresma the warm rote-colored light
From oat yon marble palace.
’Mid rocks and trees we well may trace
The haunt of bards and sage*;
That ruin grey hu found no place
In history’e dotty pages.
We almost hear the tinkling song,
Or catch the eonnd of laughter
From troops of elves that flit along
Each bare and shining rafter.
But torn away—the evening wind
Is wild and wilder blowing ;
The lamps are lit, oar friends are kind.
The hearth-flre’e warmly glowing.
We know that night will spread her veil
And hide those vine-dad islands,
And all her show tresses trail
Adown those happy highland*.
E'en now w* see oai gallant fleet
In ahapeiae* rains flying,
While all around, fair things and sweet
Are slowly Hiding, dying.
Night leant from her adt racing car
With cold and helpless weeping;
We know she’ll place a golden star
Where eaoh fair thing is sleeping.

OLD CKRLTOH HOUSE HASH.
An amusing incident which im
pugns the faithfulness of memory of
our physicians, occurred a few days
since.
The Eaculapain referred to treated
man for the yellow fever, and when
his patient was well and out, sent in
his tail amounting to a good ronnd
sum for professional services ren
dered. f
The dient. w ho considered the bill
cxliorliitnnt. called on the doe-
He told the learned gentlemen
that he was not in unusually easy cir
cumstances and asked the man to
make a discount in the amount of the
bill. “No, sir,” replied t\e doctor. ‘I
never cut down one of my bills. If
yon eannot pay it I will not a*k you
for it-** This of couiae touched the
patient's inner heart, but was not
what be anticipated. He therefore
replied that he did not ask for chari
ty, but only a discount on the bill.
The doctor in answer again laid that
he never cut down any of his bills.
For many year* he had been treat
ing yellow fever and hia Tee was $100
and nothing under. If the bill could
not be paid, well, hia services were
offered freely. There was, of course,
no reply to be made, and tbo patient
knew it was useless to attempt to ar
gue the question. Resigning himself
to the necessity of paying the full
amount, he changed the dontinatiuo
and inquired from the'physician if a
person irhw had been afflicted with
yellow fever daring the epidemic of
1$67 could again have the aame fever
this year.
“Certainly not,” was the reply of
the doctor. The gentleman in an
swer said that he had had it, or at
any rate he had been treated for H.
The doctor then replied that .the man
who treated him in 1867 for yellow
fever waa an incompetent, or very
imprudent person. 'This was too
much for the patient, who; however,
did not loose kis opportunity; He
quietly remarked that he wohld refer
.to bia papers, and ascertain ‘ who; was
the medical celebrity who (iad treated
him for the fever during that epi
demic. Palling a bundle of papers
from his pocket, he looked over them
and-cooly banded over a receipt for
$75 for treatment of yellow fever in
1867, and to! it was rgned by |fe
doctor himself •> - LC

A large earthen platter, heaped with
hash, sat upon a table in Sandy
Spencer's restaurant yesterday after
noon. Pickle*, bread, butter, sprigs
of celery, and pitchers of lager beer
sorrounded the platter. Col Mitchncl
W. Burns, Dr. Nelson Place, ot the
Eighth Regiment, Capt. Wallace,
Galusha Gallagher, ot the World,
and ether intellectual statesmen and
philosophers sat at the tabic. Sandy
Spencer presided. Steaming incense
arose from the hash, and there was a
flourish of spoons and napkin*. The
hash waa made from a recipe used at
the old Carlton House a quarter of a
century age. For fifteen years the
making of this hash has been one of
the lost art*. Mr. O. J. Holden, an
old proprietor of the Carlton House,
recently fonnd the recipe among some
old papers in his home in Fifth
avenue, and supervised yesterday’s
banqnet. Simple ingredient* only
were used. There appeared to bo
equal proportion* of corned beef and
potatoes, but no onion*. Occasional
ly lumps of gristle slipped down the
throats of the gnests, and were sup

Twenty-five or thirty years ago
men about towu were wild over the
merits of Carlton Honse hash. It
wa* called a dish fit for a king. The 1
secret of its preparation was discov
ered by Mrs. Scott, a venerable col
ored lady verging on three score and
ten, who was employed in the kitchen
of the hotel. From 5 A. M. to 9 p. M.
she stood over the range slashing
beef and potatoes, sifUng condiments,
and stirring the savory mixture. “In
ten years,” say* Mr. Holden,“she
never lost an hour.” Tho merits of
her hash were quiokly recognized.
From the modest platter holding four
quarts, the demand arose to barrel*,
until hogsheads of the delicacy were
daily ladled over the bar. Prominent
men of all parlies aud professions
flocked to the hotel and called for
hasli. It moistened the palates of
sneb men as Win. D. Porter, Johnny
Lying, Wo. E. Burton, Bill Shore,
old Palmo, Col. Keyes, Ogden Hoff
man, Matt Danser, Judge Edmonds,
The. Edgar, Gen. George B. McCIei-
bin, Miles Farron, Dan Marble, Jim
Kerrigan, Cot. Colt, of revolver noto
riety, Ex. White, Capt. Dan. Aldridge
Pat. Hearne, Jim Leonard, of the
Police Department, Sam Suydam,
Jim Nesbitt, and scoies of men
whose records arc written on the sands
of time.
Gradually the fame of the hash
spread abroad. Many distinguished
Southern Statesmen bowed at the
been in the employ of Benson &
Hodges. He carried Annty Scott
with trim. Her hash was the rage.
Large silver dishes, loaded with the
mixture, sat behind a counter at the
back of tho room. The stools were
filled from .6 in the morning to mid
night. Holden thinks that enough
hash was sold every year to sink the
Great Eastern to her gunwales. Tom

John Mornsscy, Fattie Walsh, and
men of famous and more than famous
renown revolted In plates of hash.
At least two quarts of the hash were
sold for twenty-five cents. Henry
Colton and Fattie Walsh are said to
have eaten sixtecu plate* at one sit
ting. Bob Wheat, however, eclipsed
this feat on the day of his return
from Nicaragua. He ate nine plate*
of hash, and then went over to tlio
St. Nicholas Hotel, drew a toothpick,
and made CoL Titus, of Kansas,
jump out of a Mercer street win
dow.
At the banquet yesterday M r -
Holden recalled some interesting
reminiscences. He said that in tbe
palmy day* of tbe Carlton House, at
Lennaid street and Broadway, old
Palmo, the impressario, lived directly
opposite. He was bringing up a lit
tle girl who lived in his family. She
could sing like a lark, and trip like a
fawn, but was as wild as a hawk. At
times she invaded the very barroom
of the hotel. She was frequently
seized by the ear and led to the door.
That girl was Adelina Patti, now
Marquise de Caux, the renowned
prima donna, who commands from
$1,200 to 81,500 per night. Ardili,
the composer, then lived the first
door from the old Society Library,
uow the New York Life Insurance
Company’s bnilding.
In response to a toast to the old
hash-eaters of the Carlton House, al-
lufiion was made to the jolly printers
who had worshipped a", its altars.
Among the dead and gone were
Thomas J. Walsh, of the Times,
Henry D. Failing, of the Nrnes, Wm.
Kelly, and George Moore of the
Tribune, John L. Brown and Archi
bald Butters ot the Herald, Tudor
Selleck, Thomas C. Woodward, old
Bill Stubbs, and others whose names
are well known to the veteran type
setters of New York. They all rel
ished the hash, and the size of the
plates gave peculiar satisfaction.
Tbo Carlton House was finally
closed daring the war. During tho
last nineteen days of its existence
Bates & Holden cleared 82.000.
They retired from business with a
ferlune of several hundred thousand
dollars.
Before the conclusion of tho dinner
yesterday, a sober old gentleman
from Brooklyn accosted Mr-Spencer.
“ You are Mr. Sandy Spencer, the
proprietor of this place, I believe ?”
said he.
Mr. Spencer replied that he was.
“Very well, sir,’’ said the sober old
gentleman, “ I wish a favor from
you. I wish you would eatop my
son front lrequenting your place,
understand that its reputation is not
of the beat, and as my boy’s morals
are beyond reproach, I want to keep
them so. May I aak you, as a father,
to stop him out ?”
“ Well,” replied Mr. Spencer, “ I
would do it with pleasure if I knew
your son. What does lie look like?’

shrine of Aunty Scott. The Carlton j spot at the crown, a red moustache..

and looked the door. He said he had
been to see Judge Hilton, Stewart’s
lawyer and that the Judge had told
him to open the door*. So every*
thing was all right. Then I sublet
the theatre to Nixon for a circus.
He slapped a ring on the stage, kept
his horses in back, and ripped tilings
to pieces generally. It was a big ■
thing all around.”
Here Mr. Spencer dipped hi* spoon
into the platter of hash.

“How much did you make out of
it ?” Capt Wallace inquired.
“All of Nixon’* assets,” Mr. Spen
cer answered. “A barrel of horse
sheds.”
When the laughter had subsided,
Capt Wallace told a story at Spencer’a
expense. “About a year ago.” said
he. “I came down here at 3 o’clock
in the morning. Sandy was at the
bar. Tho three hairs on his head
were drawn over his hnmp of acquis
itiveness. I was hardly seated at the
table before Wm. Henry Hulbert,
James Gordon Bennett, and the E-irl
of Roscberry came down and seated
themselves at a side table. Bennett,
How ate. Sandy?’ Sandy’s eves
opened. He saw Hulbert and the
English Lord The three hairs arose
from their bed as thongh they had re
ceived an electric shock. ‘Good
Lord, Dave!’ he said to his barten
der, 'put every bottle of wine in the
honse on ice.’ Dave did so. The
cracking and pounding of ice was
enough to deafen yon. Well, Hal
bert, Bennett, and the British Earl
chinned each other for fifteen min
utes, and knocked on the table. San
dy came up smiling, and wa* sent to
grass. They ordered three bottles of
beer. “And that wasn’t all.” con
tinued the Captain, “ihey sat at the
table three hoars drinking the three
bottles, and they went out an<l got
into a carriage. A* the noi«e of the
wheels died away. 8andy began to
open. He sanded the floor with pro
fanity. He swore so viciously that 9-
seltzer bottle bursted and the light*
ent out”
The hash-eaters roared, but Sandy
was as grave as a horned owl. “I’ve
never had any respect for British
Lords or American newspaper men
since that time,” he said. “If they’d
have been type-setters or hatters or
r drivers, they’d have pooled their
issues and spent every cent in their
pockets.”
The hash and beer were exhausted
and the guests departed.—Nite York

Thi* reply elicited great laughter,
and sent tbe sober old gentleman
back to Brooklyn. Mr. Spencer
helped himself to a fourth plate of
hash and a sixth glass of beer. Ref'

Tho Now Stylo Organ.
[From the Christian Index, July 11, 1878.J
Hitherto there has been an un
satisfied demand for a Parlor Organ
which should combine power, sweet
ness and variety of tone with a per
fect action, enclosed in a rich and
ornamental case, which conld be cold
very moderate price. After
spending large sums of money in
experimenting, J. Estey & Co. have
at last succeeded in manufacturing
an organ which covers the whole
ground. Tbe action, by an ingenious
and yet perfectly simple mechanism,
has been rendered independent, and
cannot be affected, like others, by
changes in the weather. A new and
snrprisingly beautiful design of case
has been fashioned, and many other
improvements been made, and we are
informed by G. P. Guilford, Estey’s
Managing Agent for the South, that
his experience ot twenty-nine
year*, lie has never seen such a
universal favorite as this organ seems
to be. He has sent it out on trial to
be tested with other organs, and that
not one has ever been returned;
neither has he foiled to sell it to any
customer who has ever seen it.
Having done away with all local
agencies, Estey has determined to
sell through Mr. Guilford directly to
customers; thus giving them the
benefit of all discounts and commis
sions. july.23.tf.
