Perhaps nowhere in America are the
beauties of sea and land SO wonderfully
combined. 1t has been said: mo pen
can convey proper idea of the stupen.
dous grandeur and sublimity of the
mighty billows as they dash in fury
against the riven-rock shore. No brush
can portray the marvellous beauty of
the setting sun as it sinks to rest behind
, the peaceful waters. No tongue can
tell the million creatures that live
within the vast, mysterious region called
the sea, their industry, their quarres,
their combats, and their loves. To be
appreciated they must be seen and
studied. The features on the land are
no less attractive than those of the
ocean The fragrant pine, the bright
colored rhododendron, the luscious ber-
ries, the fern clad glen, the ripping
brooks, the sparkling springs, all vie
with the pebbly beach, the miniature
aquarium, the rock oyster beds, the
mosses and shells, as objects of interest
and pleasure. Newportis preeminently
a literary center for Summer tourists,
on account of its many advantages for
the study of the sciences. Socially she
cannot be surpassed either in the char
acter of her visitors or the class of her
entertainments and amusements. She
is free mrom all that Objectionable class
of people who crowd the resorts close
to large CITY,"
