Potomac Garden-ol Monday last, with Hatlcr-
iDg pr, spects OF success, rs the pavl!lon there
has since been daily crowded from early In the
evening until late hour at night, and some
even practice in the morning. Among
the numerous young gentlemen who take les
sons several have proved themselves apt schol-
ars, and one has SO far progressed IN his studies
that he astonlshcd the cliizaDs yesterday by
appearing on the streets mounted upon one OF
the new vehicles.
Some very laushabe scenes often occur in
the riding schools when novices mount their
bicycle Tor their primal endeavor. Such one
enters u hall for the first time. Perhaps there
are some hall dozen riders on the tiOor who
are in the secret OF controlling the machine,
and to the uninitiatcd their easy movements,
the rapidity and gracctuIness with which they
move along turn sharp corners and cut Won
dcrful figures around posts seem not at all diff.
fcult, and the new conner, in blissful ignorance
of what the fates have in store for hun, watches
his opportunity and makes up his mind to take
a ride. With his legs thrown across the ma
chine, and seated in the saddle, he puts one
foot on the stlrrup, revolvcs the crank once
only oncc--aud when he attempts to pick up
the other foot from the floor, to his utter sur
prise the velocipede tumbles over, and, with q
heavy thump, he goes down on top OF It, lie
picks himself and his machine up, and with his
temper not at all improved by the litter OF
laughter amongst the lockers on, goes to work
for second trial, only to fall once more, and
again arises with liberal coating OF the dirt OF
the floor adhcring to his clothing. After several

hotter and more excited, the learner probably
gets the proper motion and begins to move
along slowly, aud lust us he commence, to feel
that he has conquered all the difficulties, there
comes a collision Two awkward riders meet,
both turn the same way, and the machines
come together with q crash, and, together with
their riders, go down upon the floor with a
bang But il he will only perscvcre he will ac-
