A THRILLING SKETCH
[From a novel entitled "Four years in the Rebel Cant•
tal," published in the Coamopolito.]
Well, we orb aboard of the Southern Re
public, the last boll has sounded, the'last
belated trunk has boon trfindled over the
plank, and w,e are elf, the- calliope scream
ing Dixie like ten' thousand devils, -and the
crowds on the bank waving us - bon - voyage.'
The main saloon of the boat was as-Spaci
ous apartment, a hundred feet long by thirty
in breadth, gorgeously decorated with mod
ern paint and brilliantly lighted. The gal
lericaleadi g to the state-room, rising tier
upon tier, ran entirely around it, while
above them a sky-light of tinted glass shod
soft, warm ight.
Thero . ttr offiboa, card rooms, bar rooms,
barber shops, and even faro banks, aboard
,all..thoso boats; and as the down trip occu
pies from forty-eight to seventy hours—ac
cording to the stage df the river, and the
luck of running aground, a performance to
be expected at least once in each trip—we
become quite a mutual amusement commu
nity by the time it is over.• _
• This trip the boat was very crowded, and
at supper the effect of the line of small tit
ble“llled with officers in . uniform, ladies
tastefully dressed, and aapriiikling of-home
spun coatal--all reflected ind,tho long mirror,
was very bright and gay. After" meals there
is_gonorally a promenade on_thOupper docks,
sans sonci—where people talk, smoke in
,
speot each other and flirt. Then they adjourn
to state room, saloon, or card room and
lounge and rend to kill time; for tho Ala
bama is anything but a picturesque stream,
with. its low, marshy banks, only varied' by .
occasionaLf.‘_:slideo2and_negio_quarters."':_ '.
This night was splondidly:cioar, - the moon
bright as day ; and Styles and ' I, 'lifter -See

ated at the calliope. Ho was an original in,
his way—. the "Professor"—With his head .
like a bullet, garnished with hair of tho
most wiry blackness, cut 'as close as the:
scissors could hold it, looking like the most
uncompromising porcupine. Of-course, he'
was a• - poi)tical refugee.- .
!'Dixie! Aire, nationalo I pas bon el!ose !"'
he exclaimed, seating himself at'his instru
ment, and twirling ahugemoustacho. "Voile ,

something else,• and finally some, more,, URI

" Thar's ther Senator, and she's gaMin'

" Splendid night fo'r a race," muttered
