Excursions aud Pic-Nics.

IL Is evident that the Fourth or July Will
be quite holiday, and it is equally appa-
rent that the good people Of the city will
not want for cheap opportunities for leav-
ing the town and going to different il not
cooler localities.
The first on the list IS the excursion OF
tho Pine-Street Baptist Sunday-school,
which goes up the Richmond and Ale
ghany railroad on Tuesday to Maiden's
Adventure for the purpose of having a
basket picnic.
Next comes Company F'D," OF the First
regiment, with a real cheap excursion to
the new pump-house and three-mile locks,
with full string band and fifty dollars
worth OF silver plate TO be given away in
prizes. There will be Dolly-Vardcn trains
every two hours from Richmond, and a
shooting tournament on the grounds, and
as no liquor will be allowed, an orderly
time aud an agreeable one will be had.
Then here comes Adams and Perdue
with their fifteenth annual 4th-oi-July trip.
This time they will take you to the Pamun-
Key, ut West Point, where you can fish, go
boating, eat crabs, dance with the lassies,
and come home in the evening.
Here comes the steamer Ariels grand
excursion to Old Point and Norfolk, under
the auspices OF the Central Beneficial and
Social Society. What a nice time 1t will be
floating down the James on the Fourth OF
July with the cool breezes kissing your
brow. aud driving away all recollection Of
the hot and dusty city. TO see the rich
scenery, and enjoy the delights Of such a
trip is an inducement to travel that will not
be sighted.
All, here's another, and this time 1t Is
the temperance people, who, tired OF the
earthly sediment called water which they
have been compelled to swallow for some
time in Richmond, are hieing themselves on
the 4th to Blenner's Park, where the UNI
aduIterated aqua will be dispensed by st.
Peters Catholic Total Abstinence and
Beneficial Society.
Old Erin forever! Not to be left behind,
the Irish Land League will go to the Brow
cry on the Fourth and picnic, and Will be
clad to see ali who choose to purchase Il
ticket. Think Of the banks OF Killarney,
and the rolicking songs OF the sons OF the
Emerald Isle, and go down and see for
yourself what fun will be on hand.
II YOU want to escape being rcgretter,
90 to the regatta at Fredericksburg on the
4th. Lots Of boat scenes and good cheer,
with a general handshsking OF boys from
baltimore and Washington rs well rs all
the Virginia cities, and then at night

THE STATE REGATTA.-The State regatta
to be held at Fredericksburg Tuesday Is
attracting considerable attention. Since
the formation Of the Virginia Association
OF Amateur Oarsmen, several years since,
a lively interest has been manifested IN the
art OF rowing, and some OF the Virginia
crews have attained marked proficiency
therein. The annual struggle OF the Var
sity crews in old England for supremacy Is
the event OF the day, its result being tele-
graphed over the civilized World. The col
lepe crews OF the Norln have drawn
crowds OF interested witnesses to their
meets, and a regatta at Saratoga is a nota-
BILE affair. Our people have been slew to
act, but since they have taken up the mat
ter they evince great interest and have de-
veloped much skill in the science. We
hope the day IL not far distant wien the
University Of Virginia will enter the hsts
with Yale and Harvard and Oxford ana
Cambridge for the aquatic honors.
The contest at Fredericksburg Is thougnt
70 be between the Olympics, OF Richmond,
and the Rives, OF the University, though II
Is not improbable that q dark horse from
Petersburg, or Norfolk, or LynchDurg VIII
come to the winning-post ahead.
The course selected for the race Is an sx-
cellent one, and the proverbial hospitality
of old Fredericksburg will no doubt ada
TO the throngs Of spectators on tins inter-
esting occasion.
