SARATOGA, July IA. 1869.
Saratoga, 1t seems. will monopOllze all the sensa-
tons OF the season rs well as very many OF the at
fractions There Is, in the immediate vicinity the
great Methodist camp meeting in full blast; In
few days, that is on the 22d the reception, review
and magnificent ball at the Union Hotel ballroom to
the famous Seventh regiment OF New York will
take place; at the end OF the month will be
some horse racing matches, when, and at the
regular racing season IN August there will be such
gathering OF racers ana turfmen, probably, az
has never been seen before In this country. The
National WOman's Suffrage Association Is now hold
ing convention, creating a great sensation and
preparing the way for system Of agitation through
out the country on the subject OF w0mens rights.
The committee OF the Stale Temperance Organiza-
ton have met here to compare notes and to prepare
for the next political campaign. Then there arc
coming q number OF the leading democratic p0liti-
clans Of the South to consult with those OF the North
on the programme and The man for the next Pre-
sidency. Besides there viii be- most likely, other
movements and sensations before the season closes.

made decided hit in meeting here. The guests OF
the hotels, and particularly the ladies' abandon the
afternoon musical serenades the evening hops ana
even their drives to the lake., to hear what

to say. In fact, the Congress Hall Hotel
parlors were crowded at the commencement, and
the new ballroom OF that hotel has been well filed
since the Convention removed there though charge
of fifty cents has been made for admission. The
fashionable ana gay and all classes have sweed the
hAlDQd rive
although the number or sefcOnstituted dele
gates OF this wOman's rights movement are few.
Elk President Milard Fillmore has been pretty regu

tive views he lately expressed on the suffrage ques
vinced by Miss S Anthonys arguments, or contsm

1t has been suggested to Miss Anthony and some
of the others that in this movement for woman
suffrage they should make Q strong point OF the
necessity OF the white women having q vote to neu-
tra i've 10 of ChinQmQn
all the other inferior and mOngrel races to whom 1t
has been or must be conceded by the radical amend
mentS to the constitution. ThtS no doubt would be
the strongest point they could make, for no one will
deny that the white women OF the Caucasian race
o%l M to l have the sua9s than the
negroes or the men OF other inferior races. This
might rally large number OF white men, as well as
women, to the support OF the movement. But this
Is delicate subject and cuts both ways, for these
wOmen's rights women ultra radical on the ques-
ton OF and the natural right of ALL OF whatever
race or color to the ballot 1t is probable therefore,
that they Will fail TO take this strong ground and

Among the recent arrivals are Madame LIE Vert
Parker, Ex-Governor Myron II. Clark, G. W. Schuy-
Ter, General Marvin and to-day there will be Gov
though number OF the leading Politicians Of "I me
South are expected to be here soon. They will col
lect here probably about the time Of the races for
politics and hOrsefiesh go together very well with
these gentlemen. Most of the Southerners prefer
going to the city OF New York for change in the
summer, for there they lind every amusement
and attend to business at the same time but those
who do go TO places OF summer resort In the country
now prefer those OF their own section They are
more disposed to save their money to spend 1t at
home than before the war; and II will be long time
before the watering places OF the North will be
by lavish and extravaganza SOurherners as
they used to be.
There does not appear to be so many OF the
gambling house fraternity as usual about Saratoga
ut this season. Are they holding back for the flush
time OF the races have these sons OF Belia been
exercised and driven away by the proximity of the
religious Influences Of Round Lake, ANY way it Is
q gratifying fact.
Many OF the visitors are staying over, and crowd
are coming for the grand Seventh regiment ball
next week.
