DO YOU WANT TO GO TO EUROPE?

We have received handsome 20-page pamphleG giving full particulars of the European excursions to be conducted by F. 5. Bartram, formerly a Newtown boy, and now of New York. There will be two trips; B days from New York to New York to cost 2l0, or 39 days from New York to New York to cost $226. This route is around the northern coast of Ireland and through the most attract i've parts of Scotland, England, France and Belgium, offering most agreeable variety of scenery as well as an oppor- tunity to visit tue great cities Of Glas- gow, Edinburgh, London, Paris, Brus- selS and Antwerp. The lover of magnif- icent scenery and pleasing landscape, the antiquarian, the artist, the student Of natural history and the pleasure-seeker, will all alike have opportunity to gratify their inclinations. And what can be so attractive as a vacation among old European cities, connected, as they are. with the most stirring events i'll the his tory of the world? Every foot of the journey in Europe will be over historic ground. Roman antiquities; massive Roman walls built by the Caesars, and defving time and decay; the battlefield of Waterloo; the marks of bloody French revolutions; the Tower of London; West minister Abbey, the last resting place o1 renowned Kings and Queens of England
 the scenes of the eventful struggle foi liberty in the Netherlands-these anG
 much more, lie in the pathway of the ex cursions. Those who wish further par ticulars may address Mir Bartram at l2t William street, New York.
