Steamer '' Lulu. ."-The Lakeville Steam boa Company received their new steamer froh Bridgeport last Wednesday after non, and Thursday night, or more proper ly peaking, Friday morning; for it was nottill about 2 o'clock in the morning. thesprightly little craft WAS made to kiss thewaters of Lake Wononscopomoc. But successfully launched she was, and Satur- day afternoon, all things being ready, steam was made, and with blast from her tiny whistle, and the stars and stripes float ing proudly from her stern. she started off " Ter first voyage on this beautiful and picturesque lake. Last Tuesday afternoon we planned to spend an hour interviewing the new steamer, and at about 9 o'clock were seated on deck, watching the uaapoeu- -Vers of Engineer "Zeke," as he circulated amongst the machinery, lubricating the va rieus parts with the all essential 'sile," while the fire snspped and cracked under the boiler. Captain Hubert Williams, away a, the bow, examined his compass thought of his barometer and with knitted brows, scan. ned the clouds that skirted the horizon. In perhaps half an hour after the fires were kindled, steam made itself manifest at 60 pounds pressure, when the signal was glv. en, and the last boat from shore, probably bringing the latest mails for foreign ports, and with Commodore Rudd at the helm. hove in sight and boarded us. when with 6 shriek of the whistle and a stroke of the signal bell. the engineer applied steam and off we went.
 Certain it is, no more beautiful lake is to be found in this country. It is between three and four miles around in the course pursued by the steamer, and the scenery, blending mountain, hillside and valley, it grand and beautiful; and the ride around and about this lake, especially at this sea- son of the year, the trip taking ordinarily about half an hour, is delightful beyond anything to be obtained; at least in this re zion. This little steamer. LULU, and whict the boys say cGn make the voyage in If teen minutes should 1t he necessary to dt 80, is trim, tidy and altogether stauncl and beautiful little boat. It will comfort ably carry party of twenty, and perhsp more with slight effort among the passen gers to accommodate ss to room. It thirty feet long, which, when the size ant length of the smack that has just left Bos ton to cross the Atlantic to France, only | feet and ? inches, is realized, will be regard ed as indeed of considerable size. Bull for service on Long Island Sound, she i fully equipped with everything required a sea not emitting full complement o life preservers. and when under way. glide along as smoothly and rides as easily as tn more stately ships that blow the waves c the great deep. Of course all things ar not yet in readiness for the business of th season. A wharf nearly fifty feet in lengt is to be built. also buildings erected in Go, Holley's fine grove, for the accommodate of excursion and picnic parties, all of whic will be pushed forward to an early compl tion. The further arrangements, as to tt tune of running the steamer, and all thin, else that parties wishing to enjoy a sail c the lake, and perhaps picnic ln the grow desire to know, will be duly advertised 1, soon as they are completed.
