establishment, beautifully located, kept in the best
STYLE and patronized by the most respectable fami-
lies in the city. 4h
Fort Hamilton, on the opposite shore, Long
Island, is delightful place. The house kept by Mr..
Curtis is we'll known to be one of the most commo-
dous and best kept establishments in the county.
very fashionable company is there at present. The
walks on the beach by moonlight, and the balls
quite paradisaical.
The Bath House on Long Island is also charm
ing place, and well patronized-the best proof of its
merits 1t is now filled with company from turret TO

ready for more, though they marshal in deep bat

For those who love good angling, as well as the
enjoyments and advantages OF seaside residence,
the Wadawanuck House, at Stonington, offers all
possible attractions. 1t kept in the most superior
style and what is of some Importance now days,
the terms are exceedingly moderate.

Mr. Reconsideration who was college con-
temporary Of the Rev. Charles Wolfe, whose name
has been immoralised by the ode ION the burial of
Sir John Moore, happened to be one of Mr. Carey's
auditors last Sunday, and informs us that he was
much struck by the remarkable likeness which Mr.
| Carey bears to Wolfe, when our informant first
knew him. The general character of Mr.. Carey's
face-his compexion-his manner-the tone of
voice-in almost every particular MIR. Carey appear
ed to our friend the counterfeit presentment" of
the gifted Wolfe. Mr.. Carey is, we have every rea-
| son to believe, young man OF high order OF ia
| lens-fne education-greal indastry-and what is
rare virtue in these days, possesses to all appear
ance, sincerity. He will unquestionably become
one of the lions of the day, and if he have manli
ness enough to out boldly in defence of those
views and tenets which identify his creed with that
| of DR.. Ppsey,-and we are mistaken much in his
character if he will not do so-he may gain theo-
logical reputation of no mean order He may be the
instrument of turning many from darkness to light,
| and delivering Bishop Onderdonk from his present
uncomfortable situation.

has just been started in Providence to advocate mot

to the swift, the battle to the strong and there's
no knowing what Tylerism and Dorrism may be
one of these days
The MYSTERIOUS DEATH AT WnLIAMsBuRaH.-
An examination took place yesterday before Squires
Parrish and Remsen, at Williamsburgh, touching
the death of Robert Wtiford, which has been be-
fore noticed in the Herald. Edward Nix, as we
stated on Sunday, was arrested on suspicion of ha.
wing caused the death of Whitford, mainly on the
ling to depose that Nix made use of threatening ex
pressions towards Whtiord four years ago, but
Mr.. Cooke, the prisoners counsel, commended that
such testimony was inadmissable, and the Justices
took time to consult authorities on that point. From
all we heard at the examination we are satisfied
that the verdict of the Cofoners jury will not be dis
turbed.
AN ANCHOR TO WlNpwARD-We take the fol-
10 wing from the "Israelite," Miller paper in In
diana:-
" With regard to the time when He will
come, we know not the day nor the hour, nor can
zoe speak Cith certainty as to the YEAR, but when the
last signs are fulfilled may know that it is nigh
even at the doors. We believe that the last signs
fulfilled, one, Wis the shaking of the powers
of heaven We are looking for that sign every day,
which will be followed Immediately by the Son Of
Man in heaven"
