I found that to be a good maxim, as the dishes tasted much better than they looked, although it happened now and then that the horns were, to me at any rate, the best part of the goat, after all. As a rule, however, the cuisine was very good and the service excellent in every respect. There was a diverting brass band which played three or more times a day; and a string-band which performed with vigor and faithfulness every evening, far into the night, in the ladies' salon. Several times during the voyage, a dance was given on deck. On these occasions, one side of the ship was enclosed in tarpaulin, and decorated with the flags of many nations. Chairs were scattered about, so that those who wished to watch the merry dancers could do so comfortably.
