OLD POINT.

twill! be perceived from Mr. sesar 'S',,'
wa APPEND. that the IIygea Hotel at old ro'N' A''

i, rather remark able tina; this deliSE'u

Temperature Of climate not TO he e1celIed anywhere "
this season Of The year. The uSuries OF The sea nre
much more tempting in the month oil Sepe'hoe'
than before. IIog fish. particularly are mol Oh
mere plentiful, bat much larger and latter ana more
delicious.
Old Point we should think, would be ifres'''o'y
attractive at this time to persons from the more South
ern States ho have either become tired OF the noun
,ains. or been induced to leave on account OF tile
cold weather, but who would faiu nger little1onger
from home. The accommodations are excellent, the
table unsurpassed, and the locality beautiful beyond
description.
W.. ara also informed that the rates of charges will

HYGEIA HOTEL,
OLD PorsT. Sept 6, 1887.
To tie Editors Of The Enquirer
Uvgeia Hotel has closed is without foundation.
In would be strange, IT, at this the most delightful por

found with closed doors
Nor will it be clused at all. 1t will be always open.
Yours, very truly, JOS. SEuhh.

And naked lies the shivcring vine;
While-dEmly DER the distant seas
Tie fading lights of summer shine.
Along the lawn thc negrn blows
Deep summons on his noondav HON,
And homeNard troop the girls and beaus
From husking OF the corn.
mind me we'll that autumn day,
When five and twenty years ago,
We turned our labor into play,
And husked the corn for neighbor Lowe.
All wife, We were the blithcst pair
That e'er to welded love were born.
For was gay and you were fair
A husking of the corn.
Oh how we sung and how we laughed
Our hearts set lightly ON our lips,
As We the golden cider qualified,
And when sly hunts OF love went round,
You glanced at me with pouting scorn,
Yet smiled, tho you fain would frown,
A husking of the corn.
Then when found the scarlet car,
And claimed the old traditioncd kiss,
You babe me not approach too-near,
And pleaded that, and pleaded this,
Away you fed, and | pursued,
Till all too faint you were to warn,
nd-know you not how well wooed
A husking of the Germ.
