presents a greater variety of distinct types
Of men and women than any other place in
this country. We have tue more expensive
foreign diplomates from Washington, the
travelling Euglishman doing the States In q
tour Of six weeks, the philanthropic en-
thusiast from Iceland, wishing to raise funds
for girls school In that remote spot. We
have distinguished clsricals Of domestic make,
aud foreign prelates who come 10 harapgue
the rich folks and taste our sea breezes. In
purely American types We are also very rich.
The quiet, solid, wealthy folk from New
Finland and New York, who live In great
houses ON the cliffs, and do not bother them
selves about the Casino or polo; the vulgar
rich people from all over the country, who
faunt their money in every body's face and
spend their whole life en- evidence, prancing
up and down the streets in fine carriages,
finer clothes, and finest diamonds. We have
the bellies OF the period, aud Of periods long
past, with their different styles of wiles, all
very amusing, some very dangerous. We
have large assortment Of gildsd youth, and
the dude Ia nowhere seen In greater perf.c-

The large square Of turf set apart for ia,
