sweltering weather, and tue denlzens of the
| cities are already seeking an asylum from the
heat OF su umer and the drudgerv of business.
I As usual, large numbers are turning their steps
| to the mountIin, where they are sure of fiuding
a cool, iuyigorating breeze and comfortable
! quarters The present season promises an un-
| usually large number OF visitors, and our land
! lOr'is are making active preparations for adapt
| ing their accommodations to the increased in
/ tux of pleasure seekers.
The CreSson Springs was opened for the sea-
| son Yesterday. This first class summer resort
! has been in successful operation for number of
years. and is the result of the genius and
prise OF the late lamented DR.. R. NJ. S. j ack-
son, NJ. d. II is delightfully."- situated on the
western slope of the highest hight of the Afie
ghenies, where the Penna. Central Rail Road
crosses the Northern Turnpike. All the trains
stop at Cresson Station, and excursion tickets
duriag the season are granted to visitors. The
buildings have capacity for 500 guests, and
have been crowded to overlooking every season
under the proficient management of the gen
tlemanly proprietor, Mr.. George W. MullIn,
whose superior as Il caterer is nowhere 10 be
found. Bath houses, billiard saloons and bowl
ing alleys supply health, pastime aid exercise
The Callau House, Mr.. VIM Callan propri-
etor. stands = turlong further East, and is the
choice resort of those who prefer comfort with
out fashionable ostentation. 1t is remarkable
for the neltness of its arrangements and the
exercises over the sleeping and eating depart
ments. A sulphur water fountain at the door
and beautiful JET D EAU lend their attractions
TO this faVorite resort.
Near Loretto, three miles from Cress0n, is
the ia amous Loretto Springs House. It has been
leased 10 Mr.. John McIutosh. of Baltimore,
who has been employed for some time past in
having it fitted up in the finest style his custom
ers could desire I he location of this resort is
deiightful-its arrangements perfect The wa
ter is excellent and slig htly medicinal-the
bathing rooms ami lie and perfect, while billiards,
bowling, ETC., afford agreeable pastlme. Visit
ors can take the Ebensburg Branch train at
Cresson and alight at Kaylor's Station.
Airs. O'Hara. one mile from -Cresson on the
turnpike, and Ne. Henry o O'Hara, one mile fur
ther west, have their spacious houses opened
as private boarding houses, and We have no
doubt they will be filled TO their utmost capaci
ty, as they have been heretofore while Mrs.
Susan Gallagher, near Loretto, has amply pro
Vlded for the accommodation of considerable
number of guests.
Add to this that fine hotels in Ebensburg,
Carr0ltown, Loretto, Summit and elsewher
have all "put their houses in order" for the ac-
commodation of the largest possible number of
visitors, and those who seek health and recrea.
ton on the mountain need have no fears about
finding hospitable welcome.
"SPooHs Don't be always talking about
New Orleans, Butler. Spoons, &C.. but go to
Cham. Roberts and buy good set of tea or
table spoons, of which he has just received a
full supply. But if you don't need spoons, go
for a castor butter dish, butter knife. sewing
machine, fish hooks, and in fact, any thing you
cannot procure elsewhere. and you may be al
most certain to get it.
6oRREcTIoE--In our notice last week OF the
fire Wilmore we inconsiderately stated, on
information given us, that the lady telegraph
operators "were awakened" etc. AS 1t Is the
duty of one of them, at least to be awake all
night, our notice unintentionally did them in
Justice, and hence this correction. They we're
not awakened, but were awake at the time the
fire brok out.
