BG5 HE picnic party yesterday was an
elegant affair and was decided encour-
| agemcnt to continue these little excursions
to the country. There were Just enough
(say about two hundred and fifty or three
hundred,) to make it agreeable to all con-
ccrned. No jam in the cars, and as each
party carried their own dinner fxinps
when the time came for supplying the
necessities of the inner man, the various
groups spread down their cloth, in harvest
style upon the grassy sward, and in the
midst OF the general merrimcut, partook of
the good things prepared for the occasion.
The "muscments were various, and we al
mired the particular attention paid by the
managers to the provision of delightful
| entertainments for the children, who con-
stltuted the larger portion of the party, and
they were amply repaid in witnessing the
wild Joy which pervnded that portion of
the excur$ionsts.
During the intervals of rest, the church
! choipS led by w. B. Slack, entertained the
company with many selections from their
music, sung in elegant style Mr.. Swartz
WIS on hands, and supplied the company
with the most delicious ice cream and
other good things in his line. After a
day Of real enjoyment, in which all seem
cd to share, the party returned vote of
thanks to Mrs. Stellc for her kindness in
granting the use of the grove, and retired
to the railroad, to await the approaching
train for town
The home trip constituted by no means
the SMALLEST part of the fun. The vivify
ing effects of the country air and country
amusement was plainly visible in the ex-
treme hiIarity pervading all parties young
and old. During the passage of the dark
tunnel, sundry smacks, supported b. the
ruflicd appearance of hcad-gear generally
on the approach of daylight, indicaied at
telnpts to practice one of the finest arts
known to the American people, an Incl
dent of which was that we found Il young
friend who occupied one halFour seat. tightly
embracing rather gcod-looking Young
man who does business few doors
above US, who happened to have bonnet
on, and almost sutfocating him with the
vigorous outp0uring of his affection
Take it al! in all, the pic mic, as We said
| at first, WAS an elegant affair.
