.... .. Deer PARK .a b.. E.t -..l
DEER PARK, July l6.-Your correspondent
reached this place yesterday, over as pleas.
ant drive as can be found. The road
which is generally coed has been very
much improved by the B. & o. R.~R, and
in a week will be as smooth as parlor floor.
We passed vehicle after vehicle, OF every
style and value. The most handsome and
valuable conveyance seen by your CORE
spondent was that of Senator II. G. Davis
The outfit was entirely new. A span OF
handsome and strong bay horses drew the
carriage, driven by the Senator himself,
who seemed very much delighted in what
he was doing. His son-in-law, S. B. Elkins,
Esq, sat by his side equally enjoying the
team and ride.
The first person seen by your correspond
ent as he approached the hotel, was the
genial Superir tendent of the Deer Park
Hotel, Mr.. c. P. Barrett, who is always on
hand, and who, in his friendly way, ex-
tends kindly greeting to every person
that comes to this house.
Remaining here until the sun retired be-
hind the Western horizon, we saw as pretty
q sight as one could wish to look upon.
The extended green landscape in front Of
the hotel was made golden by the soft rays
of the retiring sun, while the handsomely
decorated hotel yard and playful waters of
the fountain greatly enhanced the, view.
On the golden yerdure of this landscape
rested the shadows Of numerous trees,
while the still CAIN of evening resting
peacefully upon it, made the scene doubly
impressive.
