Something New in Summer Pleasure.

Something new in the line of summer
pleasuring has been evoked this year from
the ingenuity Of blase New Workers. II Is
called barge excursion" and really is a
canalboat picnic This doesn't sound
high, but is something very swell, indeed,
and not inexpensive either. A canal boat
is built or purchased, fitted up as TO its in
side luxurious apartments, with awnings
for its decks, and other accessories of so lid
comfort in the sun. A proper number Of
mules are engaged, if the trip is to be con
Quoted on a cheap basis, or a small steam
tug, if the excursion is of the 'darn-the-
expense" variety, and agreeable company
is selected and the start made. The
trip may last two days or two months, &C
cording to the tastes and purses of the
trippers, but two weeks is good average
time.
A recent party embraced Louis Tiffany,
George w. De Forrest, the lawyer, Henry
Holt, the publisher, with several other
men and ladies. Their route was from
this city down the bay, through Raritan
bay TO the Delaware & Raritan canal,
along that to Bordenton, n. j., its termin-
alton, down the Delaware TO Bristol, then
in the Pennsylvania canal and up to
Easton, along the Lehigh Navigation
company's canal through the coal regions,
into the Delaware & Hudson canal, and so
up through New York state to Albany,
and then down the Hudson home. They

AN ulisIooEE GUEST.
The hills have hid the afternoon:

The hills have hid the afternoon;
The air is sweet with myriad roses,
And DER the trees the lazy moon
Sails slowly while the world reposeA
Not all the world-for yet wake,
And strDll beside the silvered lake,
Striving; in vain TO find the clew
To the oppressive, strange unquiet
That since at most an hour or two
Has in my head and heart run riot.
Recall the day, that may know
II aught went wrong TO move me SO.
Still brooding thus, comes to my heart
A gentle knock and soft entreating,
Which pain me with a blissful smart
And set my pulses strangely beating:
"What art thou, most unwelcome guest''
"Love prays haven in thy breast"
Nay, nay" cried TO love, but he
Laughed merrily, my plant ignoring
Then first ! knew what happened me;
The fair haired maid I'd been adoring
Whom but an hour or two ago
I'd lightly kissed and-now know.
