The excursions to Lower Cedar Point
this season, under the efficient management
Of Mr. b. G. Davis, are proving delight
full attraction to Washington pleasure
seekers. Many improvements have been
made at this popular resort, among which
its shady parking deserves particular men
ton, and the facilities for reaching the
point were never before so convenient and
comfortable as they are now by the fast
steamer Jane Moseley. Prompt attendance
to the wants OF excursionists and the most
courteous of treatment by all connected
with the enterprise, from Superintendent
Davis down to the last employe of the boat
or the hotel, is an another decidedly agreeable
feature, to which may be added the excel
tent catering on board by Mr.. Freund, the
popular confectioner, and on shore by Mr..
Sbaflield, whose dinners would be credit
to the best Of city establishments. Excel
lent music is also furnished for the trip by
the Messrs. Pistorio, and with Pilot Haney
at the wheel the passengers feel quite as
safe as II ut home.

In answer to a correspondent the
Philadelphia Press says. There are
several ,fsasons why the Atlantic
ocean is.amere beisteroils than the
Pacific ocean. } One is that theformer
is smalleri and more surrounded by
land. From the same cause the in
and lakes on this continent are more
tempesttous than the Mediterranean
sea. Another reason IS the greater
depth Of the Atlantic, the average
being twice that of the Pacific nearly.
Then the copfisuration OF the bottom
of the two oceans contributes to make
the Atlantie more boisterous- Itsbot-
som has been found by soundings 70
resemble aetroughs while tha bottom
Of The Pacific isasapposed 10 be more
ike a fat basin, although it has not
been explored enough to decide it's ma
