Having for the past few days sojourned in this
delightful village, foI such it really is, propose to
inform you and through you, your :" 30 GOO read
ers,' (Uide Bishop Hughes letter. OF few OF The
sights with which this village is rite, together with
some rumors connected with recent Developments
in the religious circles Of this place.
And first, find that the Sans Souci IS well kept
that its yards and grounds afford The same cool
and delightful retreat that they did some hiteen or
eighteen years ago, when under the control OF
Mr. Harvey LOOMS. With the exception that the
minera water here has somewhat lost its pungent
taste, cannot see but that the Sans Souc affords
as pleasant and as agreeable retreat Tor the idsr
as heretofore 1t Is now more quiet than formerly,
having fewer vIsttants and tor this reason is
more fitting retreat for the invalid and those who
desire repose, Than for the fashionable searcher
after pleasure. A more healthy and salubrious air
than is found here, exists, venture to assert, III no
other inland village in the State, and to those who
prefer quiet and rest to NOISE and acuvuy-heath
| and comfort, to pleasure and excitement would
recommend this village IN preference TO Saratoga
And should they be believers In the " cold water

comfortable baths, and can luxn'iate on The waters
prefer can obtain at The Sans Sour the Saratoga
water as fresh from the Springs.
Those who III former years were IN the habit Of
visiting this place, would be richly repaid by again
making a summer excursion here, in viewing the
great improvements that have been made within
the past few years The village has within the
past five years nearly doubled in population and IN
buildings; the immense water power that has been
for so many years allowed TO run to waste, Is now
being brought into active use, and thai TOO under
The operation OF our present Protective Iarifi.
which il is TO be hoped may long remain upon our
statute books, to act an incentive TO American
enterprise.
