Tho busy season 10 near its close, and gu
citizens are coming their summers pro
eramme of pleasure and recreation. The
centennial exposition will draw large num-
bers- to the Quaker metropolis, but it ID
gratifying to note that more than ever BE-
fore is . disposition manifested to seek in
Southern resorts that health and enjoyment
which it has been too much tho fashion to
purchase ct great cost in distant places.
For two or three years this tendency to sup
pert home institutions has been notably on
IN increase, with the very natural result
that attractiveness and facilities have kept
pace with enlarged patronage, until q
elimination has been attained in the erec-
ton of the "Grand Hotel" at Point Clear,
which leaves even habitual visitors to the
famouscaravanseries of Saratoga, Newport
DR. Longbrsnch nothing to wish for.
On one of the lovliest sites of the entire
American coast, where invigorating sea.
breezes mingle with health-giving zephyrs
from scented pine forests, where drives
and promenades through groves of spread
ing oaks and magnolias WOO lassitude from
the invalid and heindolent, Messrs. II. C..
Baldwin & Co. have erected hotel unsur-
passed for completeness in all its, appoint
ments. Every comfort and convenience OF
first class fashionable watering place can
De had at the Grand Hotel. Its fittings and
arrangements are superb and wholly new.
Its fasilities for billiards, ten-pins, beating,
shooting, fishing; driving, etc., are COM
plete and under experienced management,
90 that the man of the world need fear no
deprivation of accustomed pleasures; while
superior band will be ever ready at the
call of Terpsichore's asvotees.
That the capacities Of Captain Baldwin,
magnificent establishment will be thor.
oughly tested BY the elite Of Mobile and
Montgomery society seems already assured,
and We can safely promise full repre-:
sentation from the Crescent City during
the glorious Southern summer evenings
now SO near at hand. Point Clear wa
ever popular with our people, and many
pleasant "reminiscences linger with them
and recall by:gone men and times. Under
the new regime with, such reasonable
charges - are asked, the old popularity
can not but be increased. The rate for
board is to be only $50 per month, or 81 50
per day. Passengers leaving New Orleans
on the morning train arrive at Point Clear
to dinner. The beautiful and feet steamer
Annie makes daily trips from Mobile to the
point. All letters for further information
should be addressed TO II. C. Baldwin &
Co., proprietors, Point Clear, and promptly,
too, for the formal opening will take place
BY the first Of June.

STREET CARS ALL NIGHr.-Some Of the
city street railroad lines Of cars are operat-
ing under charters which were for twenty
years, with certain conditions, One being
that at the expiration of the time men
toned the city should have the preference
as purchaser, it being plainly stipulated
that the tracks, rolling stock, etc., should
be left in good working order. As the end
of the charter approaches the managers de-
sire to gain new lease on the privileges,
and have commenced working. Members
of the City Council have had the subject un-
der consideration, and it is likely that there
will be settlement favorable to the present
stockholders. One item in particular will
be insisted on by the city fathers, and that
is that the lines must run cars all night, at
least one car each hour after midnight I'M
til the regular starting time at daylight.
Other conditions will be enforced, and it is
hoped better than heretofore. A perusal
of the first charter issued, for the Camp
and Magazine streets line, in 1859, will con-
vince the most careless reader that the
charter has been continually violated.

BRIEF MENTION.-"F. A. B." who is
somewhat intimate with rakish depart
ment of the Sunday Times, states that he
raised six cabbages in st. Tammany parish,
and that the six weighed precisely 100
pounds. Had the weight been . single

people might ably doubt the state
ment but even figures must and will stand
q severe test.
Mr.. Vineyard, whose proposed exhibition
of the ''nsmeless force" was generally re-
