Letter from Florida. ,ST. AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA,

April 2, 1872.

On the 10th of March we bade adieu to sweet Magnolia—were followed down the picturesque pier to the steamboat, by the new friends we had made while sojourning three weeks in that social atmosphere. As the wheels began to move and the vessel glided out into the garnet waters of the St. Johns, we leaned over the railing of the deck and waved our handkerchiefs while our hearts beat faster, and thoughts full of the never-to-be-forgotten visit to that fair spot, came sweeping over my mind. Pretty Magnolia—with the sunny white"homesteads nestling among the moss-festooned trees, smiling so sweetly upon the magestic river which flows on at thy feet, in soothing, rippling, drowsy melody. Cool are thy shades, fragrant thy ilowers, radiant the plumage of thy jal birds, fairy-like thy graceful f-tieamlets, pure and gentle thy breezes, and ever opeu thy loving arms.

After an liour'a'sail up the river (which to be consistant with its characteristic eceentricty, flows north) we landed at Zecti, where we took the horse cars for St. Augustine, fifteen miles distant which journey I will not describe, for should I venture such an indiscretion, you would say .when you come to encounter these "perils by land" that not one-half had been told. I was interested in some of the peculiar features of this quaint old town, and in the antique remains of old Spanish customs and characteristics, its projecting piazzas almost meeting across the narrow streets, and the old Catholic Cathedral with its stranger Moorish belfry and chime of bells, which, if properly played, inigh produce some music still. At the present time the "Call for Prayer," or "Angelus Domini," is kept upas in all Catholic

The fort is the chief object of interest, with its round towers at each corner and cannon mounted on the ramparts. Built to command both land and sea, it stretches along, inspiring a kind of mysterious soberness and dread. It is constructed of coquina. a geological marvel in itself, formed of a concretion of small shells, which it must take centuries to amalgamate into solid rock, or mass of granite yet each tiny shell is still distinct and often perfect in itself. We were led by the guide into one of the chambers, formerly used as a chaple, dimly lighted by a high grated window, small and narrow like a prison cell. The altar stone and granite basin for holy water still remains in a good state of preservation. From this we entered the dungeon, where several of our soldiers were for weeks confined, and it was iiere that by a strange Providence the digging away of the earth with their hands, in the vain hope of escape, to the depth of a yard, led to the discovery of the cells or dungeons, with the stones so strongly connected, that to effect an entrance upon any of its sides, seemed impossible.

Nothing but the horrors of the Spanish inquisition could explain the mysteries hanging about those two iron cages, just large enough to admit a man standing, and a skeleton found in each. As I entered this large tomb, crouching to the earth, through a small aperture, an indescribable horror seized me the darkness seemed to settle down all around me, and I felt its weight. The dampuess almost st.iftied me. The candles in the bands of the guide were perplexed to burn at all, and the little streaks of light appeared almost ghastly and ghost-like. It seemed as if those heavy cold walls must speak, and reveal the tortures they had witnessed. We found ourselves listening, in imagination, to the clanking of chains, the screwing of the instruments of torture, the shrieking and wailing of those poor victims of religious tyranny, as they heard the walls enclose and seal them in a double tomb. Such despair and throes of agony should have been enough to rend even those massive walls from base to battlement.

The underground passage leading to the convent, is not a mere matter of supposition, but certainty yet the old Catholic guide was non-commital, so far £he interests of Rome were concerned, and discarded the probability.

in the expressed editorial sentiment of pear as white as snow, find are almost as it the paper since the chief worte an article in titled "How to beat Grant," which was published not long since.

AN Iudianapolislady who keeps posted in the newspaper literature of the day, having read in a paper that coal oil was a good thing to cleanse the hair, thought it would be as good for animals as for human beiugs. Fully impressed with this jUea, shegftve her Nicolson pavement charger a shower bath with the oleaginous liquid. Baruum would like to negotiate for the purchase of that horse, did he but catch one glimpse thereof. He would be delighted to add it to his already large collection of hairless animals.

Fort Wayne papers proudly float

the names of their city editors at the head of the city department. That sort of thing may work there, but it would not be healthful for the city editors of Terre Haute papers. They would carry their eyes in slings all'the while, for when a beligerent would appear, with a club in his jgood right hand, and inquire for the city editor, giving his name, he would be pointed out by the chief, and not have an opportunity of telling the belligerent offended that the oity editor fvas out of town.

The sea walls, about four feet wide, extending from the fort to the barracks, a distance of more than a mile, is the fashionable promenade of the place. The Augustines and winter visitors fully appreciate the picturesque little bay, and the soft sea air, and the solemn fort, when the moonlight covers all defects, and enhances all their beauties.

The sea mosses and shells entice visitors to take a pleasant sail .across the bay, where the Atlantic rolls into a small inlet, formed by the mouth of Sebastian river,in which is Anastasia Island,which seems but a quary of loquira. Here the

This mistake on the part of the (pro- gg^ms uuu a ^uai^ ui iuv|u11*. ncic vu^ vincial press" grows out of the change greatly slopeing lands at a distance ap- ... .. n.ln'ro utinur Ami urn nlmnat, ns

treacherous to the feet. Let me say here, that I never saw such moonlight nights as we have here in Florida. It would seem that we had as many moons as Saturn, for almost every night is moonlit. Whether crescent or waning, owing to the clearness of the atmosphere and the reflection iipon the white sand, Luua is charmingly bright. The stars look, too, with more brilliant eyes, and each planet seems struggling to become a moon.

History says St. Augustine was originally beautifully kept by the Spaniards (who liow seem merely to stagnate here) and that uo wheeled charriage was allowed within the city gates that the streets were paved with coquina, and kept so neat that the ladies walked to their evening entertainments in their white slippers. If so, she has most wonderfully retrograded. Now, everything presents a want of energy and life—a listless apathy, as if the inhabitants had made their last effort and settled down in their helplessness. With the exception of a few homes with arched entrances and charming flower gardens-, the result of Northern enterprise. St. Augustine looks as if it had not advanced one step during the ltist century—this to be said of the oldest city on our continent, is bad enough. Yet it possesses every facility for living, regards all that makes the exterior life enjoyable. The city gat«»s, built of stone, cut in the Moorish style, containing sentry-boxes in their thickness, now merely suggest what they might have been. The streets are ill a wretched condition, and the authorities here have a way of mending them by making them worse. As to sidewalks or pavements, they are not even hitUed at.

The little fancy store*, with their novelties in the shape of baskets, boxes, watch-cases and napkin rings of every variety, with hats all styles and shapes, made from the palmetto and prettify trimmed with flowers of the same, resembling Swiss wood-work, strike yon with surprise wljere .there is such apparent laxity of motive, ingenuity and applica~ tion. The same spirit of improvement jo the sohool that & notioed In Jackson-I

ville is found here. These little darkies reciting their lessons in grammar and arithmetic, as well as history and geography, would make you open you eyes in utter astonishment. Little ragged, barefooted children with the apparently stupid faces, so characteristic of the race, can take the most difficult sentences in "Paradise Lost" and analyze and parse them with the fluency of a'mature scholar.

Now, I think I have exhausted St. Augustine, and your patience. DEEDEE.

Gen. Steward delivers the address, and Mr. Edmond C. Steadman delivers the poem.

The Herald ediorially discusses the meeting at Geneva yesterday and the submission of a counter claims by both England and America. It considers the very fact that if arbitration is allowed to proceed, it is a point gained in favor of the ultimate fulfillment of the treaty.

Grant, in reference to the Presidential succession, besides if the American case was altered or modified, Fish could not honorably remain in the Cabinet.

NEW YORK, April 16.—The counsel for James Costello, charged with the murder of the notorious Jack Glass, to-day applied to Judge Bedford, of the Court of General Sessions, _for the postponement of the trial until Thursday in order to enable him to produce certain important witnesses.

CHICAGO, April 16.—The anti-Grant speech of Col. Fred. Heiker, in the Twelfth Street Turner Hall, last night, was listened to by some 1,500 Germans. The speaker was very bitter in denouncing Grant for accepting gifts, hatred to the Germans, tendency to centralization, lack of ability, corruption, etc., and said the Cincinnati Convention was the only road to reform. Resolutions were adopted, favoring as a correct principle, the maintenance of the Federal Constitution, reform in civil service, abolition of all simply protective duties, and a constitutional tariff for revenue only,and general amnesty.

It is believed that Governor Palmer is desirous of being nominated for the Presidency by the Cincinnati Convention. His former political relations and his opposition to Grant on the question of the military occupation of Chicago, tend to make him sympathize with the Liberal party.

CHICAGO, April 16.—A part of the ship yards yesterday acceded to demands of carpenters and caulkers for an advance of fifty cents a day, but others were not in operation. The employers say the wages are already fifty cents higher than in Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo or Portland, while the men say that the increase in rents makes an increase in wages necessary.

MILWAUKEE, April 16.—The schooner Liberty was dashed to pieces against the lighthouse pier during the storm last night, and lost one of her crew. In consequence of the absence of a beacon light upon the extension of the North pier, she failed to make the harbor, and was nearly abreast of the pier when she discovered her mistake. Anchor was dropped, and a vessel was brought up about five rods off the crib, but she soon dragged herself against it and began pounding herself to pieces.

By repeated shouts they attracted the attention of the light keeper, who procured a rope and drew three of the^shipwrecked men upon the dock, a fourth, Steward Thompson, either slipped or was thrown between the vessel and crib. He is supposed to have been crushed to death, as he was not seen or heard after falling.

A DIGNIFIED BODY.—A visitor to the Supreme Court of the United States says: Facing the door as you enter, on a raised platform, in silken robes, sit the nine Judges—supposed to be the most digniged tribunal in America—and I have no doubt it is, notwithstanding I have seen one of the Judges eat an apple with great gusto while seated on the bench, and another partake of molasses candy, and after the repast lick every one of his ten fingers with great satisfaction.

A SHARP chap in the old diggings, the principal officer of the Pennsylvania (pipe line) Transportation Company, and anxious for a free ride over the various lines of railroad, got a batch of "passes" printed, which lie filled up and sent to leading officials of the different railroads. In return he received passes over these roads, except from one President of a Georgia road, who seemed to smell a mice in the neat pass over the Pennsylvania Company's lines. And in lieu of remitting a reciprocal card, remarked "No you don't! It's too thin. Don't feel like going through a two inch pipe Yours."
