Projiml in tlio center of an undulat ing plaiu, well irinjred with shailo trees, nnd the axla of n charming landscajic, Sarafogs, of itself, would attract tho at tention of a wearied nipper of city friv olities. A majority of tho natives arc plain, iudutruu.? countrymen, who in tone u psuhn and say grace before break fast. Tho minority nre tinged with metropolitan vices, and t,aze at tho year ly throng of visitors with an itching pxlm, viewing them in tho samo light that a backwoodsman scans a pijreou. roost so many fat birds to bo clubbed and plucked without delay. Virtue and morality hover over the littlo village for nine months iu tho year, and arc then driven off by the flap of tho gilded wmjrs ot vice and pleasure. Dunug tho winter, the natives rest in a dead quiet. tide, like bears in hollow trc' s About toe latter part of May they awako from their loug sleep, and wash themselves. Gai dons aro raked, shade trees are trimmed, a thousand paint brushes trav el over the boarding-houses and hotel, and everybody overhauls his wardrobe in anticipation of tho yearly northern migration of fashionable swallows. While tho Lclr.nds aro seated in the Metropolitan Hotel iu your city, laying out their plaus for the summer campaign at this point, the Sarr.togians arc whirl ing their grindstones And sharpening their knives in preparation for tho re cep.ion of their guests. Theso natives worry a Yorker worse than sand fleas in Florida, worse than wood ticks in Vir ginia, and worse than muskctos in New Jcivey. iiie luiporluuitiU of an Arab for ImoL.-hceaii arc capped by tha ioy ehecked demands of a native Saratogian. A cenuiuc native will take a dollar for a glass of (,'ongrefs water and thank jou without HiuciiiUji. If you rub against a hack, its proprietor will demand three I dollars, and tdiould you smell of a ben- ma or an oruni'o, you aro gone unless yuu have a supply of small change. One word of advioc to those visiting j.iratoira. icfmc leaving jNew lork go to u broker's ar.d secure 1,000 ten. rent stamps (the.-e for tho Congress watiT boys j, 'oW) quarter-stamps (these for New York papers, boot blacks and cigars), 2.")U fifty-cent stamps, (theso for wuitoi'x, Auut bally ruon, bows utid ar. rows, leu-pins, billiards, and wisp pro lcsitiouals), 100 dollar bills, (these for chambermaids, neckties, barbers, etc.), and live 'JO dollar bills for wine, hack lure, etc. Modest gentleman will uoed this tupply. But, writing Beriously, everything is ns cheap arid eveu cheaper here than in Now York city, if one dog godly stands upon bis rights aud gives tho sharpers the idea that he bah travel ed. Good board at the Union Hotel one of the finest in the city can bo se cured at 25 per week. There is no lack ot accommodations. Tho table surpasses even the spread iu New York. And, singular as it may seem, there are more hotels in Saratoga than cither Morton or Philadelphia. People thro', out the country generally havo an idea that there are but four or five hotels in this place. In point of fact there are 'U. liven theso aro insufficient for a fluttiug population of from 15,000 to UOjOf'O, and the Union, when boiling over, ba3 a reserve of 7 li cottagos for the accommodation of its guests. Saratoga should be a pious viilago. Tho town is running over with ministers. There aro 27 at 0 e hotel. They are designated as the pious brigade. As a rule their hotel bills arc paid by wealthy parishioners. The venerable lr. Gard ner Spring is stopping at the Union. Father llalsh, of 1'hiladelphia, aud Fa ther Lileasou, of Brooklyn, are also here. Another poiut, Saratoga is alive with brides and bridegrooms. At Loland's hop, on Saturday evening, I counted 31. They are easily distinguishable, having peculiaily sheepish expressions of coun tenance, and hangiug on each other' arms with the graecf ul languiduess mar -kiug tho droop of a weeping willow. Ilaibeek, tho great uhippinir merchant oi New York, is at tho Uuion. The parlors aud balconies of tbo hotels are bright with tho rich dresses ot 5,000 ladies. More money is wasted hero on silks aud laoes than on horso races. A well known diamond uierchaut estimates tho value of the precious stones worn at fJarito;;a at tho present time, at over Sl.fiiii) (J00. aud croups them as follows: S7;0,000 at Congress Hall, 8750,000 ac Leland's Union, 350,000 ut the Clarendon, 9200,000 at the American. and the remainder at various hotels and eot:a'es. I:amonds arc reallv as nlen tilul as fire Dies oa a soft July uight. fco tUUUli lol oialV FOR THE RIGHT RIDGWAY, PEXNA., SEPT.'fi, 18C8. Saratoga is a volcano, with an annual eruption of extravagance. The lava of morality Is very thin and scarcely cool ed, and a burning stream of vice oozes from the hot sea underneath at every cane thrust. The greatest of theso streams is the gambling fevor. Thnu' - auds aro won and lost in tho twinkling of an eye. A simple spring of a jojkey at a critical moment is worth half a miln lion, a (juiek turn of a card will bring its thouiands, and the soft rumble of a white marble and its subsequent jump nt a rouletto tabic takes cool hundreds frota a bystander's pocket. The faro table aud tho sweat cloth have been planted within fifty feet of tho cars Old gents with seedy umbrellas, spruce young men with neckties as small as juniper berries, loud swells with dia monds ou their fingers nearly as large as door plates, and majestic old nobs with immensn goldhcaded canes, stand around these tables, clicking piles of ivory chips within their fin gers, and closely watching tho noiseless slide of the cards aud the gentle dance of the dice over tho green baize. Sumo win. More loose. The more you put down the less you tako up, and the lops you take up tho more you put down this is the rule frequently fol lowed by brainless flats until their pock ets are destitute of a "sou murqne" and tho plucked victim reels into tho street with a dull ringing in his head and a consciousness of ruin staring him in the face. lie is not missed from the crowd about the tabled. - The dealing blackleg lazily yawns as ho shuffles tho cards nt the closo of the last turn, and nonchah antlyraps tho silver deal-box a tho spring clicks the deck to its place. The eager crowd drop their chips on their1 favorite cards, and the new deal is opened. These are genuino blacklegs, who quietly filch a man's earnings throngh the secret springs of koavory, and who would as quickly knock him on the head aud rob him, were it not for their fetir of detectiou. Gambling is a fearful bu siness at the best, but it almost socms to be a necessary evil, and if wo must bear it, let it bo on the square. If a man is willing to tako the nsi or a thousand dollatson the turn of a card, it seems to be, to a certain eztnnt, his own business, but the card should be honestly turned. There is a club house iu Saratoga. Here they toll me gambling i3 douo on the square. Doubtless this is true.' If the reader will lake my arm wc will visit it together. ... Leaving tho balconv of the Congress one hour before midnight, wc cross the rtrect to the entrance of tho garden fronting tho Opera House., The light laugn bt the ladies lounging on tho piazzas of the hotels floats on the ovo- niug air, melted in the songs of the crickets, and the half growled curses of the betting turfmen. Louuging through the arched entrance the garden, we find a scene only wanting a silvery lagoon to make it Venitiao iu character. Here are waving trees, musical with insect life. A tiny fountain tosses a thousand golden beads in the gaslight, and.teated in cane-bottomed lookers beneath whis pering branches, with the cool evening breeze tossing five hundred delicate ringlets, groups ol ladies and gentlemen dreamily chat away tho miduight hour. There is a ball in tho dining room, and the lively notes ot Oflcnbach s music come chasing each other ' to our ears. Let us wander down the ceutral walk. The steady glow of each gas light brings out iu bold reiief the facta of fifty well known authorities, politicians, and men of business. Here an idler tips his chair against a tree, and lazily watches the smoko cur ling lrom the end of his cigar. There is a select party of Cubans and Mexicans roll soft Spauish words from their tonges with a chaiactoristic ardor. Now we meet a red faced abo riginal weariedly ploddiug to htr hut with her uufiild beads and trinkets glistening in tho basket, trembling on htr arm. lie near the opera homo,and hear the hoarse tones of the pool seller, now pleading, anon imprecating, and then joyfully announcing a heavy bid. Fiist it is " Me Daniel's filly," then " Morri's entry " has it, and fiually "Sanfords stable" brings up the rear. " Now, genlo-m'u, how much for fust oh ice, start em ajrain how much f The circling crows below nod their heads and putt their cigars in lively sympathy, while tho quick-eyed Doctor catches the bids and sturdily calls for more. Turn to tho right aad now to the left of tho bath houses. Oa fifty feet further. Hero is a drab colored brick building, shadily "embowered, and surrounded with thickets ot rose bushes The crickets merrily chirp about tbo door. Up six board stops, a Veuiliau blind cofiouts us. A pull at tho china tell kuub, aud luu Laud tiicj opcu. AT ALL TIMES. colored gentleman in evening cos tamo acts as ushor. We find ourselves iu a modest hallway, lurnished respectably but not gaudily. A thin, sallow com plcxionud gentleman meets us at the door and grasps our hands. This is Mr. George W. Hill, owner and propri etor of tho Club House. Ho is a gam. blur and h not a .liaiueJ to own it. D'hy should ho be ? Ho risks his money against tho money of his patrons, and allowi an honest turn of the cards to decide the issue. Mr. Hill says this in a conscientious tone, and undoubtedly conscientiously means it. " Wc were just about to sit dowu to supper gantlo. men, and should esteem it a great hon or if you would favor us with your com pany!" Certainly. We stepped With in a hansomcly furnished front parlor. A largo silver waiter and urn of the sama precious metal crowned tho niautcl pieco, a muall but elegautly .furnished sideboard stands iu one comer, and a (able fairly groaning under a weight of delicious viauds is stretched iu tho ccntro of the room. Mr. Hill takes the hoad of the table, and with gentlemanly courtesy plaoes us at his right, lie has a smile and a jest for every guest, and his eyes flash wit. a biilliancy not sur. passed by the diamonds winking on bis bos'im. First wo havo oysters ou the shell, and Littlo Neck clams. There are no vacant seats at tho tabic. On tho left of Mr. Hill Bits Henry Colton, a partner with Daucie of No. 8. Barclay st., and tho owner of tho most fashiona ble gaming housoa in Now York City. Next we have a Cincinnati merchant who yearly visits Saratoga, and yearly loses from $10,000 to 815,000 at the the faro table. ' For 15 years has he kept this tip, and still ho hoi is his own. At his side we find a well known officer, bat, his wealth disappeared in tho smoke of the war, uud, while venturing but a few dollars at tbo 1 aro table, ho invari ably turns up at tho supper hour. The man dissecting th body of a wo d '.ock B a New York Judge, i'lays ? ot course, ho plays ; and I am told that three New York Judges havo been seen iu frout of tho gaming table here at one time. And here is a well preserved old gcntlomau, whtisu gold healed cane stands iu one corner of tho room. H e- came very near being, at one time, .Secretary of Wat. lie has a military bearing, and is a military man. Thesj frog-legs aro fine eating and so is tho Salmon, the trout, tho woodcock, tho plover, tho snipe, tho nicked olives' the bauauas. tho mite de fuie ijras, and the dozen uu tasted dishes. lliefinoht Champague liows unreserv edly, and regardless of expense, aud you find it necessary to cautiuu tho attentive waiter if you wish to leave with a tem perate allowauce. hupper is over and you aro handed a fine flavored cigar This feast is a free one, and is paid out of the slight percentage oa split cards allowed the proprietor at a Uro table. Wo loungn into tho opposite parlor. This is tho inner den of tho tiger. At our right a dealer is running off the cards in a game of faro, with a keen lookout,and a drowscy cue keeper at bis side and directly in our front we hear the mellow trip of the ball ou tho rou. Ictte table. In a room on our left we catch a glimpse of auother laro bank in full operation. A soft carpet sleeps beneath our feet, and cushioned arm chair invites us to drop aud rest. With this exception, the room is furnished quite plaiuly. The walls aro not fres coed. Tho ruddy gaslight throws a cosy mellowucss over tho group of gamblers, and every thini: ii quiet. Yoa hear bcarcely a word from the gaming-tables, where men aro hourly losiug or winning their thousands, aud save for tho gentle hum arising from our owu party, the rojm would be as quLt as a sitting room at home. Mr. liill sits at out tr.de retailing a hundred gambling reminis cences, how ho lost SJ.'jOjOOO at one sit tiug, how he mude S20,(lU0 at annthcr, aud how ho cleared over ?250,000 iu one year at the comer of Broadway and Prince stree!s,in tho very rooms now oc cupied by Barney Jaekmau. lie points to the roulette tublo, aud gives " Jean Paul's" experience. Jean won money so ia:t that ho was on the alert for a boy with a batkct,in which to carry it away ; but iu tea minutes the luck changed, and Paul left tho jungle of the tiger with a heavy heart aud a light poekct. Hill is a mau of nervo. His quiet confident niauucr of talkiug aud the decisive style iu which he chews Lis cigar assuies of that. Let us look at the table. At one end of it is a lit tle sink with a fiat sliding wheel, ou which aro a score of small compartments till numbered, and alternately painted black aud red. These uumbers run as high as 19, topping off with a box in which is painted au eigle. The other and larger end ol tho table presents a tar s-uihice, ruled souiitUitig i.imilur W VOLUME EIGHT NUMBER 23. plan introducing the school gamo of fox and geese. The ruled blocks are paiut. ed white and red, and numbered corres pondingly with tho numbers on the sink. You bet on nny number you please. Tho flat sunken wheel is whit led to tho right, and a littlo ivory ball is sent Kpinuiug to tho left, uround thu circle surmounting the wheel. If yon havo laid ou the eaglc,and tho ball lodges iu tho tagle compartment you get twenty for oue that is, you get 030 for your S:J0. If you hot on 17 you get 17 for ono, and 80 on. "A prominent gambler walk ed up to this tablo last weok," says Mr, Hill, "and walked off with 87,000 of my money made in two bets." There are two blank blocks, painted whito and red, oq whioh you may bet, even on the colors if you chcoso. " Is not this gamo similar to rouge ct noir, Mr. Hill?" " Something liko it but thero is a slight difference. I did intond to in troduce that game here, but the tables are costly, and there would probably be only two or thrco games a week in full play, so that it would hardly pay the ex penses of an attendont. Besides, Amer icans profer faro." " Have you many Cuban or Mexican visitors? Tucy generally gamble very heavily." 'Very few of them visit me- They prefer monto dealing. One of theso days I shall start a monto table, but just now the games are heavy enough as they are." There are well furnished rooms on the floor above, and in each room a select party of poker players are hard at work. No oaths are heard. No slang offends the car. Each gambler attends to his business in pcrfoet silence, and as the bits of excited pasteboard are shuffled, a nolt r r r rip is the only sound heard. The lace curtains flutter in the morning breeze, and tho gaslights dance within their figured shades as we pass the faro table, around which ait tho wearied but collected group of players, and we rise from our chairs to bid our host faro well. "Take a parting glass of wine with mo. geutlcmou 1" A waiter springs to Hill's side iu an instant, our glasses are oliuked, wo select a fresh cigar.nnd pass without tho door. More than $250,000 changed hands within this pile of yel low faced bricks since 9 o'clock last evening. The statcmont widely pub lished, that Morrissey runs a maison dc jcit. in Saratoga is untrue. He neither owns nor has an interest in one. The club house of Geo. Hill is the fashionable gambling resort. You havo seen all there is to be seen, and should return home well satisfied with this glar.ee at the velvety claws of the tiger. A Lioness Attacks its Trainer. A tew evenings ago a terrible acci dent ocoured at the exhibition of Ames Menagerie at Madison, Indiana, in which Herr Lcngcl, the famous lion tamer, was seriously wounded, and nar rowly escaped instant death. He had nearly completed his usual performance in the lion's cage,- and was in the act of firiug off his pistol as the finale, when one of tho lionesses sprang furiously at him, and tore the flesh in shreds from his arms and legs. Tho unfortunate man's bones snapped under the terrible violoncc, and all tho apectaters were stricken with fear, expeoting to see him killed outright. The employees of the ! memgeric, however quickly realized the pent ol the situation, ana made a lurtous attack on the lioflS?? with spears and lances. They succeeded, with some difficulty iu beating her off, and in res cuing their comrade, who was imme diately placed uuder treatment, and his wounds diessed. The crowd of .specta tors wero thrown into great confusion during tho affair, aud many fearing for their lives, fled fro.u the scene, but for tunately none wero injured. Fx. i-Terrific fires have again broken oui in tho woods iu the neighborhood of Bell, Kwart and SunniJale, on the Northern railway, iu Canada. On Sat urday tho station at Sunnidalo caught firo, aud iu a short time (bo entire vil. lagc, embracing tweuty-fivo or thirty houses, was in ashes. The inhabitants were taken to New Lowell, and are well oared for. Tbo railway track was de. stroyod tor ucarly a mile, but was repair, ed and trains run regularly.

FEMALE AFFECTION. Woman is not half so selfish a creature as man. When man is in low, the ob ject of his passion is himself. When women is eoatnourcd of man sho forgcte herself, the world, and all it contains, and wishes to exist only for tho objoet of her affection. How lew men mako any violent sacrifice to sentiment. How many women docs every man know who have sacrificed fortunes and honors to noble, pure and disinterested motives 1 A man mounts a breach ; ho braves danger and obtains a victory. This is glorious and groat. He has naved his country, and he has acquired fame, pro ferment, and riches. Whenever he ap peats, respect awaits him admiration at tends him, crowds press to meet him, aud theaters receive him with bursts of applause. His glory dies not with him.
