MOUNTAIN PARK HOTEL.
We publish to-day the advertisement
of this watering place with the remark
that its merits and attractions can scarce
ly be made the subjects of exaggeration.
Nature has been excessively lavish in its
beauties and bounties; and art and en-
terprise have supplemented them with
equal liberality. AS we have stated in a
former article the capacious buildings are
as elegantly and comfortably furnished
as the most fastidious taste could exact;
and no epicure could disdain the delic-
acy or excellency of the table. And with
the completion of all bathing appliances
the cup of comfort and luxury is filled.
Wewill take occasion here to supply an
omission in the article written some time
since. We omitted mention of the pecul-
lar dryness and equilibrium of the atmo-
sphere. This is no doubt due to the
thermal subterranean influences which
give birth to the Warm Springs which
bubble out in several places in the val
ley. These maintain an evenness of
temperature rising high above the sur
face which forbids the formation of fogs.
A fog may form, and probably does form,
every morning in the gorge above the
entrance of the valley, in the narrows up
Spring Creek, and in the narrowing val
ley down the river. These fogs come in
sight and seem to make most desper-
ate, intelligent effort to occupy the. val
ley of the Springs. They come down in
mass, or they send out skirmish lines;
they send out fanking parties, they
thrust their fulers in altenuated stream
ers, but suddenly they melt away; and
the sunlight in the. valley is never obscur-
ed by a morning fog, and none others are
known in the mountains as common
atmospheric feature.

Deering Park.

A spot which will surprise many of the
old time Portlanders when they revisit thell
old homes next week, will be Deering Park
more familiar to them as behring's Oaks, OF
behring's woods. Under the hands of the
Park Commissioners, who have performed
their work more as labor of love than duty
a complete Transformation has been wrought
All unsightly shubbery and underground
has been removed. The buildings on the
east side, that, in their tumble down and
smirched appearance, were sad blot upon
the neat drives and walks, have been re-
paired and whitewashed. The pond, will
its pretty fountain and its gently splashine
waters, the hard smooth driveways, each av-
enue at its junction with another marked
with white boundary tablets, the noble trees
their branches carfully pruned and loaded
with foliage, its attractive pagoda shaped
band stand, the pretty bridges of fantastic
designs thrown over the ravines, and last buI
not least, the thick soft velvety turf
athwart which the long shadows lie these
beautiful summer afternoons, make resort
of which any city might well be proud and
which the great poet, who once sang sc
sweetly of its charms, might, If permitted
to join here with old acquaintance on these
festal days, immortalize in even more
affectionate strains than formerly.
Perhaps one of the greatest improvements,
if not the greatest, is the splendid granite
entrance to the Park, the solid pillars bear.
ing respectively the dates 17S6-1S86 Situa-
ted as the entrance is, at the foot of the wide
boulevard of State street, which is lined on
either side by elegant residences, the effect
is just what is required to dignity so hand
some piece of public ground, and as the
city, with the ensuing years, shall feel able
to further adorne this lovely spot, the wis
dom of the Commissioners in providing so
handsome an entrance will be more general
ly and thoroughly recognized.

schooner Lucy Baker Burned.

Sunday night the schooner Lucy Baker,
from Rockland, laden with lime, attempted
to enter the harbor by the White Head pass
age. Through some mismanagement in
handling her she struck on rock between
Peaks and Cushing's Islands and remained
there. In the morning, yesterday, the tide
went out she bilged and the water coming
to the lime set the barrels and woodwork OF
the schooner on fire. The vessel burned
slowly all day amid clouds of steam from TIE
lime. The Lucy Baker was &C tons burden
was built in 1847 and owned in Camden.
A crew from the Tennessee boarded the
schooner while she was burning, and strip
ped the sails and carried them to House
Island. One of the schooner's crew cut away
her foremost and that, in falling, carried
away the mainmast and rigging.
