On the 31st of last month, in com gany with our better half, we left Easloy .Station on the Air Line Rail toad to visit the great World's Lxpo sition at New Orleans. At Atlanta, wswere joined by Mir. J. 1. Chastain hud Miss Ida Bradley, adsd our little party had quite an onjtyable trip down to the "Crescent City." We left the "Gate City" at 1.30 o'clock P. M. and reached our destination at S? o'clcie'next morning, having lost thr'v hoirs time in Mobile. The run from Mobile to New Orleans would bei extremely uninteresting were it not for the fine vikw the trat eler has,. Vt everal points, of the Gulf, and the many beautiful lakes erosso:l by the railroid. The road is built along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, through the marshes, over lakes and rivers, and but few points along the line seem to be inhabitable or give any evidences of industrial life. The most noted place on the route is "Beauvoir" where is situated within- two or tibree hundred yards of the depot t1d:jut in viow, the resi dence of Jefferson Davis. When this. place is reached the eyes of all Iassengers are turned in the liree tion of the residence. Car windmvs are raised so as to have as clear i view ats possible, and the platformlis Hcanlned to catch, if possible, a view of the distinguished Co nfederiate chieftain. Mr. Davis is now an old man, in bad health, and will sooll pass fronm time to eternity, but he will still live in the memory of the posont generation of Amuericals alldl his name will pass down in history as one of the most distingllished mon of his time. Arriving at New Orle aus, we wore fortunate in securiung good comfortable quarters with a llrivate family, where we were treated more like guests than transient boarders. The citizeus of New Orle ans are distinguished for their hospi tality, affability and readiness to im1. part information to strangers. After settling down in our qluar fex's, brushing off the dust of travel and partaking oIf a good dinner, we, at the sufg'geton of our hostess (asI we did not care to-visit the Em'positin that evening) visited, "West En4id." This is a resort on lak~e Poithar train, anud about seven miles din$t waIt from the starting point oni Clanai street, the Broadway of New Oruleanis. We were carrie,l there in excurlsion cars propelled hy "unmy"i engine. At the lake are found various hima;s of amnusemenuts, andi entertainmaente-, including restaurants, harroome, shooting gailleies &c., together with the vendIors of fruits, coral, shell, alli gators, Expositioan souvenCirs, &c. all at about twvo 'prices for which the same articles could lie bloughlt in the city. On our return to tile city we stopped at the half wvay house anid visited t.he ('emeteries. There are nyany muagiteent- bombs sand monu muents in these cemlfeterics, an-1' judgI" inig from the great numher, a strain. ger would conclude that Newv Orleans wvas a very old place, a very large 'Eity, or uncommonly uihealthly. The cem1ete,ries, three or four inl number, are loctedu close together rind on very lbw,- irarshy grounid, th<mghi no other kind couldl be- found in the vicinity of New OlWms.

The city itself is built in a swamp andi( the ground upon which the housos stand is four' feet h>Vwer than the suir face of the Missiissippi. river. The city is dra.ii'ed by means (If twoa large canals cut to lak% Pon)itcharti.~1j The sewers- ar'o shallow open ditchi' along the die of tIhe streets inl which hiack, filthy loolking 'wafer runs sluggishly along into the canabt, eitd directly fromu the river.

The French Mar- t ket is another attraction of the "Cres- e cent City." Here " to be found all a kinds of fruits, ;resh meats, and t game kept in a mnt.rket, besides hun- 8 dreds of sstands where every thing from a suit of Clothes down to a fine . cambric needle can be bought, from v a reprosn t.tive of nearly every na- u tion under the sun. We found the exposition fully yp to our expectttiohs. The buildings ] in which the vai'ious products are s exhibited cover an area of cighty-one i acres. In the main building are lo cated the foreign exhibits with ven dors of almost any kind of an article At nearly every place, who will at first ask about three times the value of the article aid fhially take almost any price you ofler them. Here we saw - merchants from Jerusalem and Beth lehem with trinkets made of woo.lsi taken from Mount Calvary, Mount t MIoriah, the Mount of Olives, or any other place that night have some sat cred asssociationl with the Christian religion.
