 To Martha's Vineyard course the times are hard. but if you go anywhere this season why don't you go to Martha's Vineyard Quite 6 number in this re- zion have spent more or less time at the Vineyard in the heated seasons, and we think without exception, all will pronounce the attractions at Oak Bluffs and other points at the Vineyard, superior to what can be found at any other watering-place in the country. A Salisbury family spent several weeks at Nantucket, the near neigh boring island of MaItha's Vineyard last and their expressions of the com. fort and pleasure they found in that quaint old town, so prominent in the early history of our country as whale fishing port, cer- tainly do not lack zeal, for they seem not to tire of reciting the incidents connected with their visit. never forgetting to mention the soul-stirring and hair-lifting stories of old Uncle Captain Timothy Fisher, with whom they found ''snug harbor" while there. We have never yet graced this land of the ancient whaler with our august pres ence, and do not expect to ttis year in Au. gust, but have the slightest hopes of doing so in July. Oak Bluffs at Martha's Vine yard is place for short sojourn ID the hot days of summer, about good enough for anybody, but journey can easily be made to both these places, for Nantucket is but about two hours steamboat ride from Oak Bluffs. For the information ot those who think of going to Martha's Vine yard this season, we will say that on July lst, the summer arrangement for the bes
 route there will begin. Parties from thit way can take the early Monday morninl train on the Conn. Western road, arriving in Hartford ID time to take the through fas Express on the Hartford, Providence 6 Fishkill road, connecting in Providence with Providence & Boston and New Bed ford roads, and steamer across Buzzard
