THE HEATED TERM.
EARLE'S HOTEL, NEW YORK, Jone
20.-T?? "b?att? term" is npou us,
and the Gothnmites hre Hocking by
I thousands to the" numerous delight
j ful summer retreats which surround
this great metropolis. To the
stranger, this hegira is impercepti
? ble, from tho fact that, owing to the
great competition between the differ?
ent lines to Boston, tho residents of
that "village" and tho adjacent coun?
try, como down in crowds to enjoy a
few days' sight-seeing. The regular
faro is $5, but it has been reduced to
PLACES OP AMUSEMENT.
The theatres aro all in full blast.
Brougham's last-"The Lottery of
Life," at Wallack's-has, contrary to
lotteries in general, furnished all
prizes; tho in ves tan ts in seats re?
ceive in enjoyment far more than the
amount of "stamps" paid; while tho
proprietors reap a rich harvest, as the
house is filled to overflowing nightly.
The play is replete with capital hits,
and the local scenes represented are
excellent. Brougham personates
"Teddy, the swell," a rollicking,
devil-may-care, heart-in-the-right
place sort of genius, who has spells
of honesty, which sometimes prove
serious. Tho other characters arc
well sustained. In the play is intro?
duced an accurate imitation of u
well-known "handsame waiter girl
saloon;" and among tho other attrnc
tions ?8 a small boy, scarcely Sever
years old, who delights the audience,
and is nightly encored, by his eapi
tal dancing, besides imitations o
Forrest and Booth.
There is "A Flash of Lightning" a
the Broadway every night, but nc
one in tho audience has yet beet
struck, that wo are aware of-at least
not very favorably, with either th?
play or tho players.
"Humpty Dumpty," at the Olyni
pic, has reached its 107th representa
tion, and bids fair to run fully 10i
more. It is of a character to pleas*
young ns well as old.
Tho successor of the " Bloc!
Crook," at Niblo's-tho "Whit
Fawn"-has not been overly success
ful; which, wo suppose, is to b
attributed to the present politico
state of tho country-"black" bein
in the ascendant, aud "white," con
sequently, forced to play secou
fiddle. Tho scenes in the "Fawn
are really superior, in an artisti
view, to thoso of tho "Crook;" bu
the former was so long on the board
that scenic admirers have becom
sated. The dancing in this piec
cannot be excelled.
The Now York, Bowery, Stadt, au
other theatres of tho city, aro drav
ing very well-all of them bavin
passed into what is termed "tb
summer season." The finest, and,
said, the most commodious theati
in New York, is now being erecto
in the upper part of tho Sixth av<
I nne by "Richelieu" Booth. It ia 1
I have a white marble front, aud wi
doubtless be occupied during tl;
coming winter. "Burnt cork" hi
I its admirers, also; and the San Frai
cisco, Kelly & Leon's, Bryant's, at
other minstrels, are playing to pa;
ing houses. There are more tin
thirty places of amusement opi
everj night, so that play-goers ha1
a large field from which to mal
their selections.
HOW TUE SABBATH IS PASSED.
Gotham boasts of moro thau 4i
churches, while many others aro
process of erection. Sunday mol?
ing and afternoon, these sacred et
fices aro filled with earnest admire
of tho Rev. Mr. Ton-thousand-a-yct
and-furnished-house, many of whoi
in the evening of tho same day, n
equally gratified with the op?rai
airs and other secular pieces, pi
ducod at "Palace Garden" aud sin
lar concert halls. The vagaries
these amusement-seekers, be it i
membered, are not the rule, but t
exception; there are many, ve
many, good and truo men and v
mon, who "remember tho Sabba
day, to keep it holy." Pic-nics a
excursions aro regularly ndvertis
in tho Suuday papers, and it is i
thiug uncommon to seo parties
turning to their homes, in tho aft
noon of that sacred day, with lai
baskets, the contents of which th
had been regaling themselves wi
at Hoboken, Jones' Wood, Lil
man's Park, etc. These parties i
composed, principally, of the poo
classes, who consider the Snbbi
properly devoted to rest and recr
tion.
THE CENTRAL PARK.
A drive or a walk through the C
tral Park is something to be reme
bured for a life-time. The immei
gronnds are kept in excellent ord
and the dirt roods are as firm c
level as tho most even floor. A i
on the lako (ot the modest cost of
cents,) the boots constantly surrou
ed by grocoful ewans and duck:
varions kinds, is a rare treat,
i m menso ooncourao of visitors is o
stautly in the park, from carly m
until lalo ut night. I'olicem
dressed in groy, aro in attendu
and porfect order is maintained,
description-or an attempt at on
of tho many attractions, would
impossible; the park must be visi
-again, and. again, and again-tc

appreciated, A few nights -ago, we
were bignly gratifle\l nHS?driveJ in un
oiien carriage, through the '.'Central,"
to witness'its varied b?aht??s'by star?
light. From an elevated poi?t,"?we
obtained a magnificent view of the
great city at our feet, with its myri?
ads of gas lights. The seen o was en?
chanting, and tended to make one
commit-poetry. We abstained,
however. Tho Stetson's-who, by
the way, are going it strong in the
hotel line-have a restaurant within
the park, where substantials and
fluids, of a character to dispel poetio
ideas, are famished in unlimited
quantities.
THE BEOW BRIDGE.
Tho great Broadway "Leow"
bridge, about which so much has
been said, it is thought will be re?
moved. It does nut answer the pur?
pose for which it was erected-very
few persons, except sight-seers, ever
crossing it.
WOOD VS. GRANITE.
Tho Nicholson (wood) pavemout
has been laid in several streets, und
I is generally admired. Horses travel
lightly over it, and vehicles make but
little noise. It will probably super
cede the granite eventually, (although
Broadway is being relaid with granite
at present;) as a consequence, ve?
hicles in tho vicinity aro getting
wedged constantly-for several
blocks, in some instances.
THE EXCISE.
At 12 o'clock, every night, and
during tho entire day, on Sunday,
the bar rooms are closed, and detec?
tives are constantly on the alert to
arrest delinquents. Tho penalty is
very severe. Thirsty mortals are
.sometimes put to their trumps, but
old habitues learn them "the ropes,"
and the law is evaded.
MEETENU OF THE DEMOCRATIC CON?
VENTION.
Extensive preparations are being
made for tho accommodation of those
who attend tho Democratic National
Convention, to assemble on the
Fourth of July. A million strangers
aro calculated upon. It will, doult
less, be a revival of the old Crystal
Palaco days, when "everybody and
his wife" appeared to bo in tho city.
Chase seems to be tho favorite here;
and Southerners aro freely questioned
as to his status.
IMPROVEMENTS.
Of course, Broadway is not yet
finished; as tho work of tearing down
and building up continues daily.
The finest front in tho city will bo
the Park Bank, located between Ful?
ton and Ann streets. It is elegant
beyond description-white marble,
relieved by pillars and statuary.
Stewart, "ye dry goods king," is
increasing his mum moth establish?
ment; it lacks bnt a small space
about thirty by sixty feet-of cover?
ing the entire block, bounded by
Broadway, Fourth avenue, and Ninth
and Tenth streets. On tho ex?
piration of the lease of theso build?
ings, tho merchant prince will cover
the entiro space with his palatial
monument.to Mammon.
A CAPITAL STOPPING PLACE.
The hostelry from which this epis?
tle is indicted, is situated on the
corner of Canal and Centre streets
little moro than a block from Broad?
way, and in tho business part of the
city. It is presided over by the vete?
ran William P. Eai'le, of tho old
Park Placo Hotel notoriety, assisted
by his sons, William H., Ferdinand
and Eugene. This establishment is
in trim at all times; the rooms aro
neatly and handsomely furnished,
and guests are attended to with alac?
rity-a host of clerks, book-keepers,
waiters, chambermaids, etc., being
constantly in attendance. The meals
-which in quality aro unexcelled
aro served at hours suited to the con?
venience of cither tho early bird or
tho sluggard; breakfast from 7 to ll;
dinner 1 to 4; and supper from G to
-almost any hour. Tho dining
room is largo and very airy, aud as
the best of cooks aro employed, the
visitor-never mind how captions he
may be disposed-will bo pleased in
spite of himself. A proof of the
high reputation of this hotel, is tho
fact that it is always well filled by
travelers from the four points of the
compass. Cars running to various
sections of tho city, as well ns tho
principal railroad depots and
wharves, pass the building every few
minutes. Take it nil in all, we know
of no hotel in the city which offers
such inducements and attractions as
Earle's, and, too, nt such reasonable
rates-$3 per day, while many others
charge St, $4.50 and $5. Attached
to the hotel is a telegraph, railroad,
accident insurance und theatre ticket
office, under the supervision of Mr.
G. H. Lansing. Guests can hero
forward a despatch to tho remotest
quarter of tho globe; purchase a
ticket over tho main railroad and
steamboat bines; insure their lives
and limbs against accident; or secure
a seat in either of the theatres-and
all at the current prices. This is a
great convenienco, which strangers
fully appreciate. Lot any of your
readers give Earle's a trial, and our
Word for it, they will bo highly
pleased.
THE HORRO UNDINGS.
Besides tho delightful voyage up
thG Hudson (or North) River, wo
know of nothing to excel tho sail to
Staten Island-ten miles down tho
bay. Just now, tho numerous trees
which adorn tho island are clothed
in varied green, and t'?e handsome
residences peeping out, present a
beautiful oppoaranco. A\ couple of
boars can be pleasantly bpeh't On the
trip, at a very small outlay-twenty
five cents.
NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES. .
Pictorial and sensation sheets,
newspapers and magazines, are the
rage. Nearly every day a now one
makes its appearance-the price of a
copy ranging from one to thirty
cents. A few weeks suffices to end I
tho lives of many of these nonde?
script publications; while others sur?
vive, and the proprietors realize |
largo annis from them.
FINIS.
Thero aro very few Southerners |
here at present. We had the plea?
sure, a few days ago, of meoting tho
Rev. J. M. Pringle, of Columbia, |
who is on a collecting tour for tho |
benefit of his church. He is highly !
gratified at his success so far. Rev.
Mr. Plumer, of the Theological Semi?
nary, delivered an eloquent discourse
to a crowded audience, at one of the
up-towu churches, last Sunday.
COSMOPOLITE.
DESTRUCTIVE FUIES.-About a
quarter past ll o'clock, on Saturday
night, an alarm of fire was sounded
in Ward 3. The fire was at tho paint
and oil store of Messrs. Holmes &
Calder, 126 Meeting street. Tho
flames soon spread to the building
adjoining, next North, and occupied
as a wholesale crockery store by Mr.
W. L. Webb. The only other build?
ing in imminent danger, was tho
tull storehouse of Messrs. E. Bates &
Co., which, thanks to the unwearied
efforts of tho bravo and gallant fire?
men, escaped without nuy serious
damage. The rear of the storehouse
of Messrs. Campbell, Knox & Co., in
Hasel street, was also slightly in?
jured.
The stock of Messrs. Holmes Sc
Calder was almost a total loss. They
are iusurcd for $14,000. Tho house
was insured. The house occupied
bv Mr. Webb was insured for $10,000,
and his stock for $15,000.
About half-past 2, this morning, a
fire broke ont in tho storehouse lately
occupied by Dowie & Moise, from
which it spread to the store next
adjoining, occupied by Goodrich,
Wineman Sc Co., and to tho house
next South, occupied by Dewing,
Burkett Sc Co. At the time we were
going to press-3 a. m.-tho fire
was still fiercely raging.

Su RR ATT AGAIN INDICTED.-The
Grand Jury of tdio Criminal Court
has fourni a truo bill against Joh u IL
Barratt, charging him, under tho
second section of tho Act of July 17,
loG'2, with giving aid aud comfort to
tho enemy. The section is as follows:
He il enacted, iOt\, That if any per?
son shall hereafter set on foot or

$10,000, and by the liberation of his
slaves, if any ho have, or by both of
said punishments, at? tho discretion

A gentleman once said to Rowland
Hill: *Tt is sixty-five years since I
first heard you preach, and tho ser?
mon was well worth while remember?
ing. Yon remarked that some peo?
ple uro very squeamish about the
manner of a clergyman in preaching,
but yon then added, "Supposing
one is hearing a will read, expoctiug
to receive a legacy, would you employ
tho timo in criticising thc lawyer's
manner while reading it? No; you
would give all your interest to ascer?
tain if anything were left to yourself,
and how much. Let that, theu, be
the way in which you listen to the
Gospel."
A shocking accident occurred in
New York, on tho 18th iustaut.
Steam engine No. 9 was workiug on
a lire near tho Bowery Theatre, as
tho audieueo was retiring, when tho
boiler exploded, killing five persons
immediately, and wounding thirty or
forty more. The explosion is sup?
posed to have resulted from a lack of
water in tho boiler, tho iron plates
becoming over-heated and tho cold
water being suddenly putin, generat?
ed a species of gas as well as steam,
thereby causing the explosion, which
blow tho boiler into fragments, many
of which wero cast n long distance
from where tho engino Btood.
