THr WATERING PLAcrs.-rhe tim. is fast ap-


preaching when our fashionable and wealthy
citizens will be on the wing for the several Wa
tering places with which our country abounds
In regard to watering places, medicinal springs,
&C.. &c., the United States is as prolific as It is
in every thing ese that contributes to the CON-
| fort and enjoyment of it's inhabitants. Nearly
| every city in the country has tavorte watering
| in its vicinity, TO which the people resort in the
summer months, to avoid the heat, dust, turmoil,
bricks, mortar and mad dogs OF the town.
Thither they Journey with their families, and by
drinking water, bathing, Waiting, driving dane
ing balling, &C., invigorate their constitutions
and promote their health. There is no city in the
Union that possesses greater facilities than New
York does for reaching the most celebrated
watering places. Saratoga, Rockaway, Lake
George, Lake Mehopac, Long Branch, New
Brighton, Coney Island, Newport, &C. &c., are
all within few hours travel Of it, and afford
every variety of amusement. Who that has
spent time at Rockaway or Long Branch, has
not for hours walked on the sandy shore, and
bathed in the surf of old ocean, These are the
places where the fullest enjoyment can be had
by those who admire the wonderful works of
nature displayed on the grandest scale. With
the boundless sea before them, and the boundless
sky above them, the most obdurate heart Is soft.
ened, and the most pompous and self-sufficient
man humbled. 1t is here that the angry passion
is cooled and the RAN of clay learns lesson
which teaches him what he is.
To those who love retirement, and who delight
in driving and meandering through the woods
Catskill, Niagara, the White Sulphur Springs, in
Virginia, the Caledonia Springs, and the numer-
Gus towns on the Hudson, offer rare attractions.
Here, amid the forests of thousand years, they
can commune with themselves and with all
around them, and obtain that quiet and peace
which they will in vain seek in the metropolis.
The ravnes and creeks, the mountain and the
valley, the rocks and dells, the growing crops
and the bubbing fountains, will provide ample
amusement for the mind; while the exercise and
bracing air will conduce to the health of the
body. Here, too, the disciples of old Walton
can amuse themselves in hooking the hnny tribe
1.-THE less fortunate of our citizens-among
whom we include the members of the press
those who cannot leave their business and 60 to
Saratoga, can take an excursion to Bong Island,
Coney Island, New Brighton, &C. &C.
We expect that all the watering places will be
we'll patronized this summer. We recommend
our readers, before they start on their tour, to
look over the advertisements in the Herald, of
the hotels at the watering places and on the route
thereto
