~ The delightful weather Of the past
week has had the effect to give business of
all kinds new impetus. Our streets have
presented very busy appearance, being
thronged with farmers and their teams,
Indians and ginseng diygers. The melting
mood which has possessed old Sol, has
worked wonders in the corn fields. ripened
the strawberries, and set everything to
growing. 81 a# o;

were informed that the large number Of vines
which we saw, had all sprung from fifty
plants set out two years since. AS to the
quality Of the article we are we'll fitted to
judse-not from the sense Of s:ght-but
from the most satisfactory evidence one can
have-tayte. Mrs. Whelan intends opening
a room for the reception Of visitors, during
the coming week, which we hope will be
we'll patronized. Everything has been done
to make the guests comfortable, and in our
humble opinion, Whelan's" is destined to
become the Guvorite resort Of all lovers Of
the beautiful in. nature, or, :. Strawberries
