CENTRAL PARK.

The bright sunshine yesterday tempted out an
unusually large number OF pleasure seekers to the
Park, and they doubtless found abundant means OF
enjoyment. The Mall, broad as it is, was aso
crowded that 1t failed to the peripatetic needs
|of the people who thronged along 1t to the
band stand, and the turf on either side-thrown
|open Saturdays only for the convenience of the
puDuc-was dotted with beautiful women, in hand
some dresses attended by wedressed cavaliers.
The music was more than ordinarily good and Dod-
worth's band rendered the following programme
with sngulary effective Skill.

On the base ball common hundreds OF matches
were simultaneously conducted, and the air fairly
whistled with flying balls, while the shouts OF the
players were audible almost up to MacOmb's Dam.
The other parts Of the Park-the menagere, the
lakes and the driveswere also well paronized. The
season has now fairly begun and New Workers
evidently realize more and mere the advantage
of possessing the finest park in the world.

Captain Calum, of York county, who runs little

Hampton, and had just passed the wharf and got
inside the bar when the squall struck. The cap

In the forward part of the vessel. The schOck
was too much for the craft and she foundered In
very few seconds. The man and boy succeeded in
getting into the yawl boat but the captain got
tangled In the rigging, and before assistance could
get to him, he was drowned. The body was washed
ashore and found this morning on the beach The
Coroner held an inquest on the body, after which 1t
