A cheap trip for every bOdy-a princely visit
to the gay and festive Crescent City, to the
orange and magnolia groves Of our fair and
beauteous sunuV south, and to the fragrant
land Of love, poetry and flowers, end az this
the most delig htful, suspicious and attractive
Jason of the year, when New Orleans. the
Queen City and Metropolis of the South and
the pride of its people, is at its 18th Of life,
business and beauty, and clothed in all of It's
tropical glory and Splendor. On Friday, Dec.
u, 1878, at am, a special train, with ample

OF the finest roads In the United States run
ming from Mobile to New Orleans over one of
the most beautiful, rare, romantic and at
tractive sections Of country that the eye ever
beheld, being almost a continual and natural
pathway of roses, wild flowers and ever
greens, perfumed by the rich and rare fra
GRANGE of the orange and magnolia groves
that lie contiguous TO the line OF road on
either SIDE, al nOst all the way from Mobile to
New Orleans. In short, il would require the
pen OF an inspired writer, or call forth the
language of poet, such as was used By Ovid
in his beautiful description OF the Golden
Age, to paint the picture or DO justice in the
description of this Jove!y part of our trip;
and over this we have daylight run, leaving
Mobile about $3.50 Saturday morning and ar
irving in New orleans about pm. of game
