The Watering Places.
UNITED STATES HOTEL,
SARATOGA, Saturday, July u.
The season at this fashionable watering place is
now almost at Its achme. Persons from all quar-
tiers Of the Union are pouring into the village, and
most Of the hotels are well filled. Here we have
already upwards OF five hundred; and yet so perfect
is the memage, that all is order, and quiet and re-
gularity Mr.. Marin, the proprietor, is man of
perfect tact He is ever disengaged, ready, avail
able, and seems to do nothing, while he is doing
noiselessly his orders which govern even the mi
nutest Details and are known only by their effect
To be sure, he has an able adjutant general in the
person OF Morris, he lmperOus autOcra of all the
waters, who knows every body, and Is known to
every body and governs well under so able gene
raj as the proprietor. To those unaccustomed to
witness the order OF this hotel, 1t indeed diff
cult 10 convey an adequate idea OF the perfection
OF order which runs through the whole routine
Breakfast at Sextendmg to 10 O'Clock for those who
court not the early morn; dinner at to the minute;
att. Every Tuesday evening shop" and every
Friday evening ball. both well conducted, GAY, "a nd
well sustained Almost every olherevening, dance
in the drawingro room. Then, during the day, visits
are made, the city newspapers are scanned, but
none are seized upon with SO much avidlty as the
Herald; the bowling alley, pistol gallery, and the
beautiful lake, four mls distant, for the sake of
the drive, or the ride on horseback, or the game
dlDners at the hotel there, the on the lake,
or the hshing, or the reunion and gossip which the
lake offers SO many inducements to seek shall
say nothing OF the springs, tor they have been SO
often described by ADLER pens.
The air here Is pure and GRATEFUL and the wide
spread lawn attached to this magnificent hotel
gives the whole an appearance Of airiness and
space, which are seldom met with. II were diff
cult to find, either in the old world or in America,
such an establishment as this, take it all IN all.
Then, In the way OF society, there is all here the
most fastidious could desire. Beauty, elegance,
refinement, wealth-all are found among the fair
inmates OF this hotel. The ladies now here would
grace any court in Europe; and if bachelors
can hold out against so formidable an array
OF chains, their hearts must be OF adamant.
We have here the pretty Mrs. T., of New York,
