THINKSGIYING DAY LET GEBEINT.
. .
[lt is a little late to talk about last
Thanksgiving Day, but we have discov
ered so charming a letter describing that
day in Dresden, and how Americans
there' spent it, that we cannot refrain
from publishing it. Other matters in the
letter will be appreciated by those who
have spent some tini9 in a foreign town.
Our correspondent, whose letter we glean
'froni, is a lady, and one whose 'social po
sition is shown by the place given her- at
the Thanksgiving dinner table. GA
ZETTE.]-
DRESDEN, Friday, Dec, 4th, 1865.
--- _-----It seems really . more difficult to
write now that I am settled down than
When traveling about. Then, every
eVilning after a day's journey we wrote
the day's adventures; now I am actually
driven by my many regular eniploymen s.
We have a German lesson every day, ad
it takes nearly three full hours to prepse
i.
and recite it. We make it a point to e
at least two hours out doors during every
day; and I rush from one thing to anoth
er as breathlessly as a bard worked school
girl. This morning -- ------ and I intend
tended to spend in 'this inexhaustible,
lovely picture-gallery, but we opened our
eyes to a world drowned in rain. It
pours down our windows, the streets are
one sea of mud, and we are having a quiet
morning in our rooms. It is the only day
in- the week excepting Sunday on which
we have no German -lesson. We enjoy
our lessons greatly. Our teacher, Mr.
Reinhart, is the most patient man and
pains taking teacher. He plunges at once
in the most alarming sentences and makes
us translate - and reply in German; . but I
feel pretty confident of learning a good
dearin the months. Our four lessons
have already enabled us to communicate
with our chambermaid to a far greater
extent than you would believe. I told
her I had lost my black bracelets,_ asked
if she bad seen them; and then told her,l
had found theta, all in German,
yesterday
to my no small.,pride. • But I began this
letter inten.
' ding — ttXtell you of our Thanks
giving diniter, away 'off here in a foreign
land. We Americans in' Dresden felt
ourselves bound by the proclamations of
'our several Governors as much as if we
were at home.! So the gentlemen be
stirred themselves to get up a public din
ner, as a private, family celebration was
quite impossible, and would be doleful in
- the extreme in a foreign land. Tickets
were issued at three thalers apiece, that is
$2,10 iu gold. When the night came—
dressed in our very best—the gentlemen
in dress coats, the ladies in the prettiest
silks and jewels they possessed—wO drove
to the "Hotel de Saxe," were ushered up
a long flight of stone stairs, and into two
large parlors, where Mrs. Campbell, the
wire of the American Consul, received
the guests. She is a very handsome
woman, large and tall, with a brilliant
complexion and fair hair. One could
hardly believe her assertion that she had
been married twenty-five years till they
saw her tiro beautiful daughters, young
ladies grown. Mr. Campbell is quite
fanious for the three -beautiful women in
his family. Mrs. Cal:Obeli wore a light
blue moire antique with a deep flounce of
white Brussels lace, a bertha of the same
around her shoulders, a white lace shawl,
and ornaments of frosted ' silver in- her
ears and on her beautiful neck.
After a half hour of chat
. in the parlor
we all went to the dining room, It is a
large room; all around . the walls were
great flowering plantS, forming a thick
hedge, with red, white- and pink Japon
icas in bloom mingled with them, that
being Its near as they could come to the
National colors in flowers. At one end,
beldn'd the hedge, wasstationed a splendid
brass band that played between the
courses: Over their heads were many
small American flags grouped together,
and at the dpposte end, over the head of
the President,—Major General Parsons, of
St. Louis,—were two; large flags, beauti
fully draped in the '1 midst of a perfect
bower of flowers and shrubs. The tables
were arranged like a horse shoe with a
third running down in the middle of the
room. They were profusely decorated
with flowers and• glass, fruits in high
dishes and large fancy cakes with "E
pluribus 21 lit/774' in pink candy on them.
The dinner is never placed on the table
here but handed around already cut up
by the waiters. The gentlemen -made a
desperate effort to have (the turkeys placed
on the table whole American 'fashion;
but the cook and waiters were so non
plussed -by the -- suggestion that they
gave it Up. It is utterly impossible to get
these Germans to entertain a new idea.
If you persist they pay you off by making
up the most ridiculous mesa. General
Parsons took out Mrs. Campbell and
placed her on his right hand. Mr. El
dridge took the and I had the next place
of honor at 'General .Parson's left
hand. lam sure I 'don't know why;
but it was a splendid place to see the
whole room and hear - the sPeeches—
thinks the place was accorded me on ac
count of my native liveliness and blue
...
- .
silk dress. The,other side of Mrs. Camp
bell sat Commodore Worden of the Mon
itor, quite the hero of the occasion. After
tthmt ten courses, queer as could he, came
in a flaming plum pudding, and then ices.
and the speeches. The ices were the
queerest things. There was a central
- - '
pyramid of red and blue, studded with
silver stars, and all around the base of it,
ball of ices and creams shaped like lemons,
oranges, peaches, strawberries, apples,
Sze. The centraPpyrathid quivered and
flickered with a strange fire imprisoned
within it. It.warhunded to me first and
anxious to see what it was and wonder
ing if it would flare out if I gave it a
chance, I seized the spoon and attempted
to break in. The waiter exclaimed 0,
madam ! nein ! nein ! die kleine ballen !
"(the small balls)" so I discovered that
was for show and the balls for food. Dr.
Eldridge made the first speech in answer
to the toast: "Our native land in our af
fections first, last, always, God bless our
native land." Between each speech anti
toast the band played our national airs, and
the whole assembled people sang them.
"The Star Spangled Banner," "Ameri
ca"! and "Auld Lang( Syne," were
printed and laid by each plate. The next
toast was "The President of the United
States—the nation representative. Then
the "Array of the United States," Replied
to by General Parsons, who was-General
Grant's Quarter Master General. He
spoke in the most manly and open man
ner of the glorious record of our own
army, and praised with great and noble
generosity the bravery, spirit and endu-
ranee of the Confederate army, proliesy
ing a. gloriouS future to a country ozd and
united, combining all that was brave and
noole hi both arinies. There were many
SotithernerS present, and while many
loyal hearts_were full of pride and, plea-

thanks Of the Southerners for his delica
cy- and generosity. To the toast "The
Navy," Commodore Worden
He had proMised to give an account of
that strange contest of iron-clad monsters,
the Merrimac , and the Monitor, but al
through the first part of the dinner
could hear bim begging the President in
piteous tones to let him off; he could not e
,
speak; he did not know how, etC., but
the President was inexorable. But some
one said, I would know what to say fast
enough if. I had fought the Merrimac.,
"Bless you," said the Commodore, I would'
rather tight two Merrimacs than make this
speech; but he arose, flushed and nervous \
ith written speech in hand - and made
several attempp to read it, but he liesita
ted and stammered, and finally laying the
manuscript on the table, he said, "Indeed
ladies and gentlemen, you - must believe
me when I say I cannot speak I would

to hear Of the encounter of the Monitor
and Merrimac, but I really cannot," mar
,with many hearty and simple thanks for
the cheers and applause with which he
had been received, he sat down Of
course he received 'diem-after cheer, and
finally, his health.was drunk standing with'
three tremendous cheers to finish off with.
I was greatly disappointed not to hear his
story, but I Could not, hut' respect his
modesty. •
After this there were several toasts and
speeches. "King John, of Saxony," - to
which Mr. Thode (unfortunately to Eng
lish ears, pronounced Toady,) the banker
of all Americans in. Dresden, replied in
an elegant English speech. (Shall I ever
speak German as he speaks English?)
"The American women, famous through
all Europe for their beauty." "Eng
land:" replied to by a capital speech by
the English Clergyman, Mr. Smart,
Chaplain of the English and American
chapel, and many volunteer toasts,
songs
and cheers. We sat down at the table at
six o'clock and rose at halt past ten,
the young men and maidens remaining
for a dance in the dining room after the
tables were cleared away, - while we old
folks came home, though not before I
had been introduced to Com. Worden
and had some talk with him in the (parlor.
He is a good looking man, tall and slight,
with a full, long, light beard, mood nose
and light blue eyes. The ball of one
eye and'one side of his cheek and nose
are quite black with powder. He was
peeping out of a little sight hole in the
turret of the monitor, directing her move
ments, when a bomb struck her and burst
directly in front of his eye, throwing the
powder thickly into the eye and flesh sur
rounding it. The eye was useless for
some time, but he has partially recovered
the use of it, and he will carry that hon
orable stain to his grave. I enjoyed see
ing him greatly.
So ended our Thanksgiving dinner,,
very unlike home, and above all as there
were no, religious services any where.
The Keokuk Canal
The g.reat canal now building, with the
aid of the Government, around the rapids
of the Mississippi river at Keokuk, is how
iu a fair way 01 completion. The follow:-
ing detail of the work, from the Chicago
Republican, will be found interesting:
"The rapids known us the lower rapids
lead from Keokuk- twelve miles north to
Montrose; The canal around the lower
part of the rapids is to be seven and a
half miles long. 'Beginning at the'Pilot
House at Keokuk, and running to
of `Nashville, the width of the na
nal will be from three hundred to four
hundred feet in earth embankments, and
two hundred and tifty feet in rock exca
vation. It will give six feet depth in low
water and can have eight feet in high
water. The outside wall will be of earth
protected by stone rip-rap; will be ten
feet wide on top, with a slope On the sides
.of one and one-half base to one vertical
on the outside; and one and (Me-quarter
base to one vertical,on the inside, and
will vary froth eighteen to thirty feet in
height, so as to carry it above the-high
water mark of 1851. There Is to be a
guard lock at the upper end and two lift
locks, one near the middle; haVing a lift
of eight feet, and one at Keokuk, lifting
ten and three-fourths feet. The guard
lock can also he used as a lift Whoiever
the water in the river is three or, four feet
abov r e low water mark. The leeks are to
be three hundred and fifty feet long and
eighty feet wide. Knough water will be
let into the canal to give a flow of one
mile per hour, whiCh will give a. water
power at. Keokuk of about 1,200 horse.
power. The present appropriation of
Congress under which the work is done
Is $700,000. The entire cost of the work
is estimated at $2,59G,000.
A VERY NOVEL IRON Intro, to carry
molasses, in bulk, is to be launched in-
Boston to-day... She is one hundred and
thirty feet long, one hundred and forty
feet on deck, with twenty-seven feet
breadth of beam, eleven feet depth of
hold, and will register about two hundred
and fifty-six tens. The hold is left en
tirely free for cargo, all het crew and
officers' , accommodation being -on deck.
She has seven circular trunks secured on
au iron platform, and braced from
the sides—these are all connected with
one another in such a manner that .they
can either be united or disconnected, at
pleasure. Their combined caPacity is.,
ninety thousand gallons. On the top of I
each there is a turret to allow for, expan
sion, and also over each there is a hatch
way, so that they can be examined
.around, above and below, at all. times.
She has a powerful steam pump, by
which to discharge, and it is estimated
that in six hours her cargo can be putaped
out. At the place where she will-dis
charge in Boston; there is a tank to re
ceive her cargo. Besides the tanks, she
has considerable space in the wings and
in the ends to stow any outward cargo,
that may be required to ballast her. Her'
name is "Novelty."
A LINE of steamships to Australia,
touching at the Sandwich Islands, is ad
vocated by the San Francisco journals,
and statistics on the subject 'have been
published. It is asserted that the value
of she trade between the United States
and the Kingdom of Hawaii and Aus
tralia combined, for the last fifteen years,
amounts to about' $38,000,000. The
Sandwich Islands commerce employed
1090 vessels, representing 373,135 tons;
the Australian trade employed 1095 ves
sels, representing 514,223 tons. This
commerce, it is reported, is rapidly in
creasing. In the article, of sugar alone
an increase is noted of from 550,000
pounds in 1856, to 20,000,000 pounds in
1868. Steam communication between
San Francisco and Australia, it is stated,
will enable passengers from the Atlantic
coast to readh. Sydney in' less than a
month, after the - Pacific ItalfrOad shall be
finished. •
