THE GATE OF THE TROPICS.
Ftrs* Impressions of the Crescent City.
Letter to the Cincinnati Ccnamercial.
New Orleans, Dec 15.
Eighteen miles of levee! London,
with all the gloomy vastness of her docks
and her "river of the ten thousand masts,":
can offer no spectacle of traffic so pictu?
resquely attractive and so varied in its
attraction.
In the centre of this enormous crescent!
line of wharves and piers lie the great
Sugar and Cotton Landings, with their
millions of Ions of freight newly un?
shipped, their swarms of swarthy steve?
dores, their innumerable wagons and i
beasts of burden. Above the line of
depot and storehouse roofs, stretching j
southward, rises the rolling smoke of the
cotton press furo aces. Facing the Sugar
Landing, Btretching northward, extend
~a line of immense sugar sheds, with roofs
picturesquely peaked, Sierrawise. Be?
low, along the wooden levee, a hundred
river boats hire landed without jostling,
and the smoky breath of innumerable
chimneys floats, upward-eddying, into
tha.overarching blue. Here ope sees a
comely steamer from the Ohio lying at
the landing, 8 till panting, after its long
ran of a ?ouaa^&mUes; there a rast
Mississippi boa*tiies ..groaning, with her
cargo of 7,000 bales; awaiting relief by a
legion of 'longShoresmen. At intervals
other vessels arrrve, some like mountains
of floating cotton, their white sides hid?
den by brown ramparts of bales built up
to the smoke-stacks, some deeply freight?
ed with the sweet produce or the cane
fields. Black tugs rush noisily hither
ant* thither, like ugly Water goblins seek?
ing strong work to do; and brightly
painted luggers, from the lower coat u?
from the oyster beds and the fruit tree
groves?skim over the wrinkled water,
some bearing fragrant freight of golden
oranges, and pomegranates, and bananas,
richly ripe; some bringing fishy dainties
from the sea. Ocean steamers are rest?
ing their leviathan side at the Southern
piers, and either way, along the far carv?
ing hues of wharves, deep-sea ships lie
silently marshalled, their pale wings
folded in motionless rest. There are
barks and brigs, schooners and brigan
tines, frigates and merchantmen, of all
tonnages?ships of light and graceful
build, from the Spanish Main; deep
bellied steamers, with East Indian names,
that have been to Calcutta and Bombay:
strong-bodied vessels from Norway and
all the Scandinavian ports; tight-looking
packets from the English ports; traders
under German, Dutch, Italian, French
and Spanish flags; barks from the Med?
iterranean; shapely crafts from West
Indian harbors. They seem envoys of
the world's commerce an sunny session at
the Gate of the Tropics I Look either
way along the river with a strong glass 1
?the fringe of masts and yards appears
infinitely extended; the distant spars
become blended together in a darkly out?
lined thicket of sharply-pointed strokes
and thread, cutting the blue at all angles;
further and farther yet, the fringe seems
but a frioge of needle points and floe
Cobweb lines; and, at last, only the
points remain visible, the lines having
wholly vanished.
It is not an easy thing to describe one's
irst impression of New Orleans; for
while it actually resembles no other city
upon tha face of the earth, yet it recalls
?{ague memories of ? hundred cities. It
owns suggestions of towns in Italy, and j
in Spain, of cities in England and in
j Germany, of seaports in the Mediterra?
nean, and of seaports in the tropics.
Cabal street, with its grand breadth and
imposing facades, gives one recollections
of London and Oxford street and Regent
street; there are memories of Havre and
Marseilles to be obtained from the Old
French Quarters; there are buildings in
Jackson Square which remind one of
Spanish-American travel. I fancy that
the power of fascination which New Or?
leans exercises upo-i foreigners is due no
less to this peculiar characteristic than
to the tropical beauty of the city itself.
Whencesoever the traveller may have
come, he may find in the Crescent City
some memory of his home?some recol?
lection of his Fatherland?some remem?
brance of something he loves.
New Orleans is especially a city of
verandas, piazzas, porches and balconies;
and the stranger is liable to be impressed
with this fact immediately upon leaving
the. levee. All the streets in the business
portion of the city are shaded with'broad
giazzas of wood,and. iron, which cover j
le whole sidewalk; and on the main
streets, such as Canal, aide awnings of
canvas are used, so that during the hot:
test portion of the day the sun cannot
cause, discomfort to pedestrians from any
possible direction. The front and also
the back windows of most private houses
have balconies at every story up to the
roof; and in the old French quarter
these are often multipled and superim?
posed in the most picturesque way; you
see them right under the angle of gable
ends, jutting out from queer corners, in a
fashion half mediaeval. They are often
hung with large pieces of cloth or carpet,
or stuffs brightly dyed, especially above
the French dry goods' stores; and thus
draped the effect is quite odd and pleas?
ing. I find much' to gratify an artist's
eve in this quaint, curious, crooked
French quarter, with its narrow streets
and its houses painted in light tints of
yellow, green, and sometimes even in
blue.' Neutral tints are common; but
there are a great many buildings that
cannot have been painted for years, and
which look neglected and dilapidated as
weir as antiquated. Solid wooden shut?
ters, pointed a bright grass-green, and
relieved by walls painted chocolate color,
or tinted yellow have a pretty effect, and
suggest many memories of old France.
Few houses in the quarter are without
them.
. A stranger cannot avoid being also im-,
pressed with the solid character of the.
streets here throughout the business por?
tion of, the city. They are raised like
causeways, and are usually either level
with the sidewalks or above them, being
separated from the curb by gutters of
great depth and breadth. The street
lavement consists mostly of square
blocks '"of stone set diamond wise; and
this pavement is almost everlasting. It
is very handsome and clean looking, and
I am told that no other pavement can
resist the wear and tear of the cotton
traffic or the undermining effect of the
rains which loosen bowlders and roll
them from their beds.
Most of the finer public .buildings must
have been erected at . a time when ex?
pense was the least consideration in the
construction of an edifice. They are
generously and beautifully built; yet it
is sad to see-that'many of them ans fall?
ing into decay. Especially is this the
case in regard to the old St. Louis Hotel
?now the State House?with its splen- j
did dome, frescoed by Casanova, and its
grand halls.' To repair it would now re?
quire an outlay of hundreds of thousands.
It has been outraged in a manner worthy
of Vandals; soldiers have been barrack
ed in it; mold and damp have written
prophecies of ruin within, it, Hither it
was that'the great planters of the Sonth
dwelt in the old days when they'visited
New Orleans, and under their rich pat?
ronage the hotel prospered well, till the
war swept away their wealth, and for a
.time at least ruined New Orleans. I
doubt if any of the great, hotels here are
.now doing Well.
' The St. Charles, with its noble Greek
facade, is the handsomest of these. From
the entrance of the rotunda looking out?
ward and upward at the vast Corinthian
columns, with their snowy fluted shafts
and rich capitals, their antique lines of
beauty, their harmonious relation to
each other, the* sight is magnificent I
find a number of noble Greek facades in
the city; the City Hall, the Methodist
Church, on Carondelet street, and other
structures I might name, are beautiful,
and seem to illumine the streets with
their white splendor. This elegant, gra
| cious architecture appears adapted to
i this sky and this sunny clime; and, in
" deed it was under almost such a sky and
I such a Btm that, the Greek architecture
was born.
But, after all, the glory of the city is
in her Southern homes and gardens. I
cannot do justice to their beauty. The
streets broaden there; the side-paths: are
bordered with verdant sod as soft and
thick as velvet,' and overshadowed with
magnolias; the houses, mostly built in
Renaissance style, are embowered in
fruit-bearing trees and evergreen gardens,
where statues and fountains gleam
through thick shrubbery, cunningly
trimmed into fantastic forms. Orange
and fig trees; bananas and palms; mag?
nolias and myrtles; cypresses and ce
i dare; broad leaved, monstrous-flowering
plants in antique urns; herbs with leaves
shaped like ancient Greek sword-blades,
j and edged with yellow; shrubs exotically
1 luxuriant, bearing blossoms of curious
forms and equatorial brilliancy of color;
and flowers so rich of hue, so sweet, so
fragrant, that they vary the varied green
with a thousand tints, and make the
? tepid air odorous with drowsy perfume.
I And yon can walk through this paradise
lour after hour, mile after mile; and the
air only becomes yet more fragrant and
the orange trees more heavily freighted
with golden fruit, and the gardens more
and more beautiful as you proceed south?
wardly.
Color and light and bright contrasts?
those warmly picturesque effects which
artists seek to study in- tropical climes?
may be studied m perfection at the
French Market The markets of London
are less brightly clean and neatly, ar
[ ranged ;? the markets of Paris are less
picturesque. It consists of a succession
of huge buildings, extending for nearly a
quarter of a mile, and covering an erea of
about four squares. Oh, the contrasts of
color, the tropical picturesqueness of a
morning market scene here, the seduc?
tiveness of the succulent fruits, the bril?
liancy of the brightly dyed stuffs in the
hosiery and notion bo'tbs; the truly
French taste exhibited in the arrange?
ments of vegetables and fowls and fruits
and fish; the costumes of the quadroon
girls; the Indian squaw selling droll
trinket*; the blue jackets from the ships
of all nations; the red-sh irt-ed fishermen
from the luggers; the Spaniards, Mexi?
cans, Italians, Englishmen, Portuguese,
Greeks, Frenchmen, Acadians, Creoles I
One may Bee almost everything, and buy
almost anything in the French market;
and he must have a hard heart or an emp?
ty pocket who can always withstand the
softly syllabled request of some bright
eyed Creole girl to buy something that
he does not want.
You never smell an unpleasant ordor
in the French market; there is nothing
to offend the nostrils, nothing to displease
the eye. You inhale the fragrance of
fruits and flowers!?you breathe the odor
of delicious coffee from the lunch booths.
What coffee it is, too?Oriental in
strength and fragrance, but clear as
wine. Oranges are selling at ten cents a
dozen; bananas "five for a picayune;"
and mountains of them are coming in
from the Picayune landing, where all
tho loggers lie. Here are huge fruits
that resemble oranges, but are nearly
eight inches in diameter*; pomegranates
piled up in blushing pyramids; red
bananas from Spanish America arranged
in towers; figs, ripe and green; fresh
dates; pale green grapes in giant clusters;
apples rosy enough to have tempted rrsy
pJve; citrons and lemons, cxjcoanute and
pecans and pineapples; and strange
looking fruits peculiar to the tropica.
Here are flowers of a hundred kinds, in
pots, in-boxes, in nosegays, in boquets,
in bunches for the button-bole. Here
are boots and shoes, silks and muslins,
handkerchiefs and hosiery, cutlery and
delf-ware. porcelain and crockery, tin
ware ana plated ware, dry goods of all
varieties, and shirts of all dyes. I can?
not attempt to give any idea of the vege?
table market, with its green and brown
and purplish and ruddy mountains of
fresh stock, or the admirably clean meat
market, with the polite French butchers
in white caps and aprons; or the bread
stalls, where are piled up rolls as white
as milk and sweet as cream ; or the poul?
try market, with its questionable luxu?
ries. The fish market has a glass roof,
and all the rainbow tints of the fresh fish
come out well on a bright day. Here
are hills of shrimps and pyramids of
oysters, and enormous baskets of live
crabs, wherein hideous .claw-battles are
incessant. But one nun not see, much
less describe, all the sights of the French
market in a month. It in a perpetual
exhibition of industry?a museum of tbe
curiosities of marketing.

? CHANDLER'S CHARGES.
Major Borke Tells What Chandler & Co.
. Wanted and What Grant and Hayes
Promised?Improbabllty of a Renewal
of the Electoral Struggle.
New Orleans, Dec. 27,1877.
Major E. A. Burke, one of the most
prominent Conservatives in the State,
who engineered the State count |nd rep?
resented the Nicholts government' in
Washington last winter, upon being in?
terviewed in reference to Chandler's let?
ter has stated that the Republican states?
men who visited Louisiana-immediately
after the election undoubtedly gave
Packard, Kellogg and the returning
board strong guarantees that the Packard
government would be sustained by the
administration if the State should - be
counted for Hayes, and it would not be
difficult to prove the times and places
where such assurances were given and
the parties to the same.
Our State Central Committee wttein
possession of some of Mr. Chandler's
guarantees to the same effect, which
were, I think, delivered to Mr. David:
Dudley Field's commission in Washing?
ton. All these gentlemen and Mr.
Chandler wore aware of tbe fact that
some of these very statesmen, together
with the principal leaders of the Repub?
lican party, recognized the impossibility
of keeping these guarantees, and whether
they found out that Mr. Hayes could not
be brought to sustain their assurances or
whether the fear of a defeat of the count
instigated them, it is certain that the
most Dinding guarantees were given by
the leaders of the Republican party that
Mr. Hayes would, if inaugurated, restore
the South to local self-government, as
indicated in his letter of acceptance, and
adopt a policy of justice and conciliation
instead of military interference and bay?
onet rule.
- These guarantees were known to every
Republican Senator, Representative and
public mau in Washington before the
electoral court was completed, and they
became parties, to it by their silence and
acquiescence. General Grant had said
tbe sentiment of the country was clearly
against the further use of troops in up?
holding State governments, and That, in
his opinion, the Nichoils government
should' stand and would stand, because
it was supported by the best elements of
the State, and he authorized me to say
that he wished his views to be made
known. Grant followed that declaration
by an assurance that the troops would be
withdrawn, and informed me that he
would say so to Kellogg and Darrell,
who were then in the next room. He
discussed with myself and others the de?
tails under which we guaranteed no vio?
lence. Nichoils was to issue, and did
issue, with Grant's approval, a proclama?
tion to re-assure the colored men and
Republicans. That such an order was
not received by General Augur can best
be answered by Mr.. Chan-Her and tbe
hundreds of Republicans who besieged
the White House and claims' that such
action before the inauguration would en?
danger the Presidency.
No doubt Mr. Chandler and many of
his associates thought that Hayes would
join them in violation of the guarantees
which the Republican party was eager to
give when the Presidency was in peril;
but I say, advisedly, that the South did
not fear Hayes, as it appears we had a
higher opinion of his truthfulness, hon?
esty and patriotism than his former sup?
porters. We did fear the -remorseless
and vindictive power of the Republican
1 party leaders, like Mr. Chandler, whose
malignity is written in bold letters in
every campaign in this State since 1870.
Louisiana sought simply to know if the
leaders would let Hayes alone. If any
. bargains were made the Republican party
leaders, so recognized theu by the whole
country, were the parties to them. If
, any bargains were made by Mr. Hayes I
never heard of them.
i As to tbe re-opening of the Presiden?
tial issue we consider it closed. The old
combination between Senator Conkling
and Democratic Senators, which offered
to Louisiana and the country a defeat of
the electoral count and a new election
f under Conkling, may be revived with a
view of opening the electoral question,
: but 1 think it impossible.
Small Feet.?For tho sake of having
small feet, many an otherwise sensible
woman will martyrize herself by pinch
| ing those unlucky members of the body
into boots a size too small. As a natural
and necessary result of such pinching con?
finement, the foot becomes deformed, and
; larger than it would naturally grow with
enlarged joints, and toes turned from a
1 line parallel with the foot, to say nothing
of the troublesome corns, so annoying and
crippling to a large class of young wo?
men. The'worst results of this crippling
custom of wearing small and narrow boots
is felt by children, when allowed to out?
grow their boots. It is poor economy to
allow the young to wear boots when the
feet have become too large for them,
since deformity of the feet is easily pro?
duced at this time. When the boot is'
too short and the beel too high, the in?
growing of tbe nails is a perfectly natu?
ral result. Children will have sufficient
ills to contend with without this crippling
from deformed feet, the most prominent
-cause of which is small and badly fitting
boots and shoes.
Flying by Balloon.?The balloon
is a grand drifting machine, and by aid
of the trade winds could reach almost any
part of the globe; but air navigation, in
the seientfic sense, will be accomplished
finally on the bird principal. Letters I
have recently received from various parts
of Europe convince methat tbe solving
of the problem is not far off. A number
of scientfic aeronauts have written me
concerning a flying machine now being
Jerfected by a distinguished scientist iu
aris which will doubtless be able to
carry cargoes in any direction and any
distance. It is a mere matter of time in
mechanical progress. Why should not
man fly as well as the eagle, the bat, the
squirrel; even the fish essay this mode of
locomotion for 200 or 800 yards? While
talking on the subject of the construction
of balloons, he said: " Balloons may be
made of boiler iron if built large enough.
You know it is the battle of cubes and
surfaces. When the surfaces is doubled
the cube is quadrupled, and a balloon of
400 feet diameter of copper boiler plate
will lift up a man-of-war ship and sail
away with it. With such a balloon
stocked with bombs and othrr destructive
munitions of war. think what consterna?
tion could be carried into a besieged camp.
But the mission of tbe balloon will be
more for scientific exploration. That
overshadowing science called meteorol?
ogy will yet provide its definition in the
use of the balloon."?Prof. Wise.
