| whothat is in search of health innocent recreation and peaceful retirement would not rather spend a few summer weeks amidst the rural beauties of this healthful, quiet city, and inhale the | pure, refreshing breezes from off old ocean, than to mingle in all the hollow gayeties and fashionable follies of Ni- agara, Saratoga or Newport?
 Here is a great center of educational power and talent. Tn the old halls of Yale, law, science, divinity and the arts flourish under the superintendence of the most eminent scholars and learned
 professors in the land, and the six hun-
 dred students of that noble institution,
 in their various associations with the
 citizens, diffuse among them a high lit- erary taste, and incline them in many
 instances to studious and reflective habits. Here are afforded all the social,
 intellectual and religious advantages of the city, and the rural charms and qui- ct pleasure of the country combined enjoyments as exalted, luxuries as rich, and scenery as diversified and beauti- ful as in any other portion of this fla vored land.

The recent enactment of the prohibitory liquor law indicates a sound and enlightened pub- lie sentiment, and it's successful en- forcement affords especial cause for hearty congratulation among all classes of citizens The remarkably general and ready acquiescence of runsellers in the law is a significant indication of it's growing. popularity and future promi- hence. It is also worthy of remark that Connecticut is becoming land of re- fuge for reformed inebriates from other states, and several instances have come to my knowledge of young men leaving the city of New York, and taking up their residence in this good old state, for the purpose of avoiding the glaring temptations and evil associations which | there so thickly and strongly beset them.
 Another pleasing feature in the social | condition of this city is the absence of | pauperism and Restitution A vagrant, | pauper or poorly clad person is very | seldom seen and the jail and almshouse | are almost tenantless. Policemen, po- lice and recorders courts are entirely | dispensed with, and one may walk at | any hour of the evening through all the | principal streets without meeting vi l cious or dsorderly person. The me- 1 chanic arts are here in high repute, and l every branch of mechanical and manu- | featuring business is apparently in a | sound and fourishng condition. In- | dustry enterprise and energy, in what | ever vocation they are exercised, inva- l riably insure an ample reward, and | even common laborers are generally in | circumstances.
 In conclusion I would say that I can most cordially endorse the remark | made by an extensive traveller a few days since, that he has visited all the | principal cities of the Union and found | none so amply furnished with the ne- cessary requisites for the real enjoy | ment of life as New Haven. To secure a quiet home in some secluded retreat of this rural city would consummate the highest earthly wish of delighted |
 COSMOPOLITE.
