VISITING PLACES NEAR NEW YoRK.-There is,
perhaps. no city in the world, certainly there is
none in the United States, within Ithe imme-
date neiqhborhood of which there are so many
pleasant and agreeable places, which our toll
worn and overheated citizens can reach within
an hour OF two, than our own favorite and noble
clyNew York. BY taking the ferry boat they
can reach Hoboken, which is one OF the most
romantic places on the continent, in five minutes
and IN hive or ten minutes more after they
reach 1t, they be as far in the country as they
need to be to obtain fresh air, or witness the
mowers carting the ripe hay, or the harvcsters
reaping and grading the matured crops. What
can be more agreeable to dweller amid bricks
and mortar, than to see the husbandmnn secu-
ring the fruits OF his toll, and himself and fami-
Iy, from the Oldest TO the youngest, engaged in
their happy work; and after the business of the
day IL over, to listen to their innocent and
sprightly conversation, and enjoy their substan-
tial and frugal meal. We know OF none.
