New Workers Enjoying Their sabbatl

New Workers Enjoying Their Sabbath.
The enjoyable weather OF yesterday brought ont
all the pleasure-lovng people OF New York In more
than the usual force. Dolly vardens profusely dot
ted the already rich variety of Gen.
trail Park with denser and gayer
colors than nature and art had granted
that blessed breathing spot. Fine ladies, nurse
girls, shop girls and demure old ladies alike sought
the refreshing influence Of Its pleasant shades and
inviting scenes. Children and grown men were
equally delighted with It's happy combination OF
country views and city comforts. Carriages
whirled alongkhe smooth drives and saddle horses
cantered nmbly among its patns Nothing brings
home to the rich and the poor alike SO forcibly the
magni6cence and muniflcence OF our great metro
polls a Sunday sannter In Central Park.
The animals were, as usual, among the greatest
attractions. Crowds ten or twelve deep gathered
about the cages, gazing In GREATNESS Impotence
for the alligators to take plunge, watch
ing the bears wrestling with one another,
animals, or Joking with the ape. The crowds, in
deed, we're too dense for comfort, and IL was no.
ticeable that the better dressed and more dainty
people kept away from the menagerie, strolliDg
along the Mall and the shaded commons. A brisk
business done on the Lake in the boating line,
the people throngng for row In such crowds that
the boats were hardly sufficient for the emergency.
The newly erected statue Of Shakespeare was an
object OF general interest Its position and resem-
bance to the popular Ideal OF the great bard was
thoroughly discussed by the honest critics OF the
masses, and twas generally declared most ad-
mirable conception =
The various points OF interest to excursonists
about the city were resorted to by the usual Sun
day seekers for recreation. Harlem and the bridges
received their usual quota OF visitors the railroads
leading thereto being denscy crowded throughout
the day.
Staten Island, Greenwood the Elysian Fields and
spots up the Hudson were all points of interest to
many hundreds of our citizens. Altogether the day
passes his summer Sabbaths-with view to rational
enjoyment In the highest degree.
