EXCURSION DOwN THE BAY.-The inhabitants of
Fort Hamilton have been revelipg for the last two
months in the possession of steamboat-an actual,
bcpade ferry boat-and great has been the cxutatiOn
thereat. The ride to the Fort through Brooklyn and
down the Third avenue was agreeable enough by way
Of variety; but business people, obliged to make the
trip every day. complained Of heat and dust, cot to
mention the frequent delays aud changes of vehicle
incidental to the land journey. These evils were
avoided by the ferry, which not only sported pas
ser gers 10 the city in less lime and with less trouble
but also afforded them, without extra charge daily

Bay. The charter Of the boat expired sst week, and

how long she will continue to do In the meantime,
the Inhabitants have been gaining new experience,

eating the beauties of their own neishborhood Pic

Band was gagged, and all proper arrangements were
made that the affair might pass of with the greatest
possible eeat. Everything was favorable, and about
o'clock the boat steamed her way up along the
Staten Island Shore past the old Quarantine around
through the Kills, into Newark Bay, aud then back
sgain, down the Lower Bay to Coney Island, where
fortunate few succeeded in waking the inhabitants Of
the hotel and raising meal of sandwiches and coffee
