EASTERN PRoMENADE.-Early yesterday
morning, this favortesresort of the lovers of
nature was visited byia large number of men,
women and children attracted thither by the
unusually clear atmosphere and brilliant pano>
rama spread out before them upon which they
could feast their eyes, Far away to the north
west, Mount Washington lowered majestcally
in all its grandeur In front, stretching for
thirty miles northeast, lay the bay dotted with
emerald isles. To the right, looking over the
Cape one way, or High Head another, the
ocean could be seen, its bosom heaving with a
proud swell as it reflected back the varied hues
of the rising sun. The waters were dotted
here and there with white winged sailing
crafts. while soft plumed sea gulls were dis
porting themselves on the crested waves, or
lazily eurverting in mid air. The sweet scent
ed zepher made breathing seem luxury. 1t
is one of the mysteries of life that Portland
people will leave home, at loss OF time and
money, and endure discomfortsland fatigue, 10
catch glimpse of nature at points where she
presents her beautylnever in such phases as may
be seen any morning from the brow of MunJoy
