1301:100911, SEPT. 7.—The season has beou more
brilliant here this year than for several years ast, notwith-
standing the long continuance of cold and nit weather.
The favourable change of the last week has, however,
brought into the air the large number of sojourners who till
the hotels and lodging-houses, and made the atre.-t, quays,
and onshore lively with a gay and constantly-ehanguig
throng. The arrangement* for the rebuilding of the bathing
establohnieet have at last been completed, awl the Legisla-
tive Assembly have voted the law authorising the town to
borrow the money of the Credit Foncier Company for the
purpose. Meanwhile the old building is much resorted to.
Alboal came to Boulogne to sing at a concert at the
Etablimement, and performed three times at the theatre ;
twice in the Barlerre and once in La Parorita. The pai-
ring/es to the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Boulogne have
taken 'dace during the month of August as in past years ;
awl it la curious to awl a custom of the middle ages we
unique and remarkable iu its way as the performances at
Oberammeigan revived and maintained in the midst ..f a busy
seaport and thriving watering-place, full of English folks, and
within so short a distance of our shores. Thiilgrims" CUM°
sea many noisome long distances co foot, and traversed the
streets of the town, singing, iu procession ; but one body of
1,900 came from Paris. The railway company brought them
to Boulogne and took them back for 12 francs each, leaving
them two clear days at Boulogne ; and it is said that many
exeursionide availed themselves of these peculiarly liberal
terms who did nut afterwards walk in the proces-
sion. The effect of the treaty of common)* is
beginning to be evident in the increasing tran-
sit of valuable goods between Boulogne and the
English ports. The quays are covered with bales and bar-
rels ; the number and tonnage of the English colliers do-
charging here are increasing, and machinery to assist in
rapidly unloading coals is about being placed on the new
western quay, in connexion with rails leading to the station.
Everywhere at Boulogne progreo and activity are to he
witnessed, and is no respect more than in the constantly
improved and accelerated tidal minim carried um by the
south-eastern railway companies, by which Loudon and
Peril are brought, not only in name, but in fact, within ten
hears of arch other.
