Some four or five hundred of the so- journers here attend on the arrival of each train, led thither by curiosity or the expectation of meet- ing coming friends. The ladies among them yes- terday generally wore black lace veils over their heads. after the Spanish fashion,or whatare known as pic nichats with us. Soon the crowd coming over on that train, some two hundred in number, were driven in various directions, to their several quarters. I was taken down Broadway to Union Hall, passing the United States, American, and one or two other noted hotels on the way. The short drive was a very interesting one; as it gave me, at a first glance, 2 very good idea of the beau- tiful village and the four thousand strangers now domiciled in it. The hotel porticoes and windows, and all the lounging places under the shade of the magnificent elms whieh so grace Sar- atoga Springs. were alive with them; all appar- ently eagerly curious to scan the strangers being precipitated in among them. Broadway here isa magnificent street in summer, being generally well built up on both sides, and affording, on ac- count of its width and the great heightand grace- ularly their pensions.

They cover an extent of perhaps ten of bill, dale and deep plateau. All their walks are duly shaded with magnificent elins, maples. pines, firs, &c , and nearly all the rest of the space is devoted to thick sod, upon which all are for- bidden to tread. On the highest ground in the enclosure, also eapitally shaded. a circular rail- way with double track has been constructed, upon which all who so fancy propel themselves in a sort of velocopide, the exercise of which is caleu- lated to expand the lungs through the labor of turning the crank by which motion is given to the ear. ‘This toy-road acems to be patronised for the most past by juvenile visitors, who await their several turns with manifest patience.

A few uncoutrollable fast-horse men tlitted upand down the street, and here and there a countryman or dealer with a fine span for sale might be secn slowly exhibiting their paces in front of the hotels by way of catching the eye of the desired customer. By noon most of the lady guests seemed to be visiting around the hotels. In this way the time was expended until 2 p.m., when dinner called the vast throng at Union Hall together again. After dinner the fine band of the establishment practiced for an hour under the shade of the elms and other trees, which, though not standing thick, cover the hotel! courts and enclosarcs with a com- plete natural awning as it were.

Edward Everett's Washington Oration was first delivered February 22, 1856. and has been given since then 129 times, yielding $55,753.62. For the ‘Mount Vernon Papers,” in the New York Ledger, he received $10,000, and in other ways smaller sums, making a contribu- tion to the Mount Vernon fund of $6=.163 56.
