NOuveIle Period avec la Collaboration des
sommites Litteraires ct scientif1ques, de
la France ct des pays strangers.
Published on the first and fifteenth Of every month
Each number contains ITO pages, Svo, at $l2 so
per annum.
~ The Revue DIES Deux Mondcs has been formed
for the purpose of establishing an intercourse in
the intellectual pursuits the most followed between
distinguished men of Europe and America II is
proposed in this collection TO give a prominent
place to the affairs of the American Union, to the
labors of its politicians, and to the Literary and
Scientific publications of its Authors. The Revue
DIES Deux Mondes now makes public appeal TO
American Authors and Editors, by sending to it,
through Mr. Putnam, Of New York, copy of each
of their publications. The Revue is in better po-
sition than any other organ in Europe To serve as
an intellectual link between the Old and the New
World, which has as Editors and Contributors the
most eminent political, scientific, and literary men
of France. Many of its contributors have visited
North and South America, and it still counts among
them many of the Diplomatic and Consular Corps.
Each number of the Revue, in addition to its articles
signed by the first names of France, contains under
the title of" Chronique de la Quinzaine,' hstori-
cal summary of the principal events of the political
world, which will certainly be, for the American,
the most faithful picture of the European move
ments.

keyrort Is one Of the last of the new crop Of
watering places which has grown into existence
within season or two. 1t possesses many advan-
tages place of retirement from the heat, hustle
and excitement of an overgrown and densely po-
pulated city like New York, in the warm months,
and the wonder Is that Its fame is not as widely
known as that OF Saratoga, Cape May, or Newport
Among those advantages are, a beautiful back
country, which offers many inviting rides and
jaunts, water of ehrystal clearness, beautiful
shore for bathing, shady walks and groves, abun-
dance of sport for anglers and fowers, and other
things too numerous to mention, as the play-bills
say. At present, the number of vlsters is not
large, but additions are being made every day, aud
before many days shall have elapsed, the Mansion
House and other hotels will be filed
There are great many people in New York who
would take their families to some convenient wa
ering place if they were sure they would not be
under The restraints which fashion imposes on
them. Our old-fshloned folks do not care about
dressing three or four times day. When they
leave the CITY they desire to enjoy themselves in
retirement as much as possible-to ride, to walk,
to fish, to bathe to shoot, TO play ten-pns, as they
please and when they choose. keyportis just the
place for them Here they may bring their fami-
lies and live as comfortably as they do at home
To men OF business Keyport offers great attrac-
tons. They can, after business hours, take the
steamboat John Hart from the foot of Chambers
street, at four O'Clock, and, after magnificent sail
OF two hours, they will be in keyport in time for
tea: They can leave next morning after breakfast,
and arrive in New York at hali-past nine.
One Of the iavorte amusemenis of keyport
IS boating excursions by moonlight A party
OF ladies and gentlemen will embark IN boat,
taking with them musical Northumberland as
guitars, vions, &c., and row or sail a quarter
Of mile from shore, where they will sing
and play as much as they please. When they
come back, they will either engage in a dance
or take dip in the salt water, which is here very
pure and sweet, coming, as it does, directly from
the ocean. Besides these inducements to visit Kew
port, we have pistol galleries, ball alleys, swings,
and almost everything else you can think of.
