LETTER FROM NEW YORK. On Brighton and Manhattan Beaches— A Day at Coney Isiaad—Scenes at the Oriental— Glimpses of People —Who They Are—Bitter Beer—The Amuse= ments—Etc., Etc. Special Corresponilence of Tax Evestxe STAR. gw Yous, July 7, 1882, Coney Island is the gréatest watering-place In the world. It 1s in full motion now, and on the beginning of what is destined to be its most suc- cessful season. The dey is counted bad that does not see more than 100,090 visitors, and the hotel proprietors shake their heads sloomlly if there is room for one more chair on the acres of piazza, and claim that patronage 1s light. The beach is in some places a thing of the past. I remember ten years ago when there was a stretch of white sand nearly an eighth of a mile broad between the ratl- road depots and the waves. Now there 1s almost no beach at allin some places, At the Oriental, ‘or instance, the huge promenade platform run: rom the piazza stepsstralght to the ovean, wher tends ina dock. The same thing is at Manhattan yeach, and Brighton’s water line has encroached 30 muth on the hotel that a formidable butkheadl has been built to keep back the sea, At che West End, however, there is a good teal of the genuine old _beaéh. Everything 1S at the West End. ‘The would-be aristocratic gentle- nen, who lave of late taken to wearing th coats-of-arms on thelr fobs, are the zealous adh vents of the extreme eastarn end—the Oriental. They may be seen here in the most astoundingly tight trousers, coats that ft like gloves, shoes with white duck overgaiters and grotesque English derby hats that look large enough for three men. They talk in the affected English lingo and stare at citizens not in thelr set through the single glass retained with palpable diftculty in the right eye. They consider music a bore and bathing vulgar, 30 they sit and do noting except stare at string ers ad suck the ends of their sticks. ‘They change their clothes five or six tunes a day and are proportionately happy. THE FEMININE PORTION of the regular guests at the Oriental are quite as exclusive. They dress elaborately and recline in- dolently on the piazza all day long. There are some really good people at the Oriental, but the majority of them are great snobs. A little more than a quarter of a mile west of the Oriental ts the Manhattan Beach hotel, with its thousands upon thousands of feet of plazzas and dining rooms, and its immense promenade, running trom the hotel to the water. There {san immense band with a cornet soloist and a gigantic bathing pavilion. ‘The class of people that trequent Manhattan Beach {3 the best on the island. ‘They are mostly New Yorkers, and they enjoy themselves by eating, drinking, looking at the fireworks and Listening to the music. The costumes of the ladies are often very elaborate and costly, and it 1s considered quite the thing to wear Giant dress at dinner. Very little bathing is indulged in after 11 o'clock in the morning. Before that hour the regular guests of the hotel take a constitutional dip, and the ladies get an opportunity for ex- hibiting various degrees of charming figures encased but not concealed in fantastic bathing sults ending In silken caps and bare arms at one end and open work stockings and sandals at the other. ‘The men Wear a single garment, which is nothing but the familiar swimming * ughts,” elongated so as to reach the shoulders and knees. It was pronounced indecent at tirst, but people have become used to it. Tens of thousands of excursionists arrive during the day and depart before nightfall at the Manhattan, but the select character of the beach 1s well sustained, There 1s a hop oceastonally, but it has been found that dances always briig the people that the Man- hattan folks don’t want. WHO THEY ARE. Trefer to the class of beautiful and brilllantiy dressed ladies who are the Dane of life—sometimes —and exist without visible means of support. They always attend hotel ‘balls, and as they can’t be excluded it has been fotind the better plan not to give the balls and thus circumvent them. There are only two ways ty get to Manhattan Beach, by its railroad or by the littld marine ratlway that connects it with Brighton. {t 13 impossible to drive there as Shee Day stretches out back of the hotel. ‘The. little: railway I mention 1s almost a toy. Itruns along the beach about 150 feet trom the ocean's edge and carries such excur- stonists as choose to leave Brighton to Manhat- tan Beach. Brighton, however, fs the great place. Ivis at the sea end of the magnificent boulevard that runs from Brogklyn to the oeean. It 1s very fashionable to drive down from New York and Brooklyn, and there fs a constant moving mass on fatr days of coaches, dog carts, road wagons, vic- torlas, phwtons, buggies, and indeed all sorts of vehicles whirling dawn to the sea. AT BRIGHTON. Everything at Brighton realizes the American idea at bigness, Even the prices excel all others —consumlé soupe 50 cents—steak for one $1.50— two chops $1, and soon. The bathing pavilion 1s enormous, and the bathing very funny. Levy, the great cornetist 1s here, flanked by a tremendous military band. The throng 13 mixed to the last degree. The swell owner of a private coach, who drives down in almost regal style, 1s jostled on the | prominade by the very iowest of’ Bowery concert saloon keepers, and his haughty wife brushes the skirts of hotorious women. Still the main portion of the crowd 1s made up of respectable people in every sense of the word, and there 1s lots of fun there. One of the most’ no- Uceable features 13 the young man and woman from the big city dry goods houses. I used to Wonder ofteh over tlese people, glancing Into Stewart's, Arnold, Constable & Co.’s, or Lord & aylor’s. ‘I was often at loss to know what the two or three thousand young men and women did when not waiting upon customers. I know now; they go to Brighton. The young man usually dresses in a way that makes your heart ache. He is most to be found in a blue or a violently checked suit, with very tight patent-leather slippers on his feet, and a very, very small hat perched om his head, upped very far over the right eye. He wears gaudily-colored ‘| linen, and tg fond of flarring scarfs. He usually smokes cigarettes, and cultivates the impression that he 1s ‘one of the “boys”—a high-toned young man from New York taking an outing at Brighton, He 1s usually very anxious to appear blasé, and drinks what he calls “beah.” ‘The girl who accomns panies him 4s of greater varlety and much more | attractive qualities. She is nearly always pretty, | and fs consumed with the desire, however crudeiy carried out, to appear “ladylike.” She is oftenest found tn tose pretty Newport dresses made of blue stuff, with bars of black braid running across the front.’ She often has a really beautiful figure; though, alas, her back 15 sometimes bent from bending over those horrible sewing machines. She wears a pretty hat—elther a small Langtry or one of those big Gainsboro’s in design—and her short skirt reveals tolerably small feet in shoes usually Tun over at the side. She {s very fond of mitts and jewelry, and stares with insatlate intensity at the Tashlonable_ women, who are another feature of Brighton. There are a few children there, but they are usually in charge of maids and kept out- sidé of the limits of the great crowd. People stroll about and listen to the music, At night there are occasionally exhibitions of fireworks that are uncommonly attractive. The big, black ocean makes a good background for the pyrotech- nic displays. But if a visitor wishes to see Coney Island proper he must go where everyone but the advanced aris- tocrats of the Oriental goes, to THE GREAT WEST END. ever the desire togive the world ocular proot ot the color of her hose gets the better of her discre- tion. Speaking of suppression, reminds me of the admirable police system in vogue at this refined resort. The proprietor has provided and em- ployed some dozen or more heavy-hitting gentle: men of bland and engaging matners, who waltz freely but keep a bright eye on things’ in general. Their manner of procedure 1s at once simpie and effective. If any gentleman sees fit to make a dis- turbance for any cause, real, fancied or otherwise, these gentlemanly brutsers fall upon him with the inevitable surety of fate, and atter rapidly slog- ging him into a state of Insensibility they quietly Toll him down stairs, and go on with their danc- ing, smiling with unruMed serenity. This appeals to the higher emotions of the masses. ‘They enjoy seeing some one whipped, if he 1s y Whipped, only enraged when a blue coate the fight. ‘Then they all combine a: man out with great force and free prietor of the pavilion knew this, and 1! man, he laid his plans accerdingly. I only’a few of the amusements of visitors to th West End. ‘There ts everything besides. Shoot- inz, bowling and photograph galleries abound, 2 do booths of every kind. ‘There are huge woode cows, that give forth natural milk, and cla. bakes, and dinners and merry-go-round, so untains as big as houses, and everything elsc at the ingenious mind of man can devise tc atch the pennies of the hundreds of thousands ct people Who visit Coney Island. pecriel eyes ELS, ‘The City Markets, BUTTER FROM NEIGHBORING SOURCES—LIVELY DEAL- INGS IN FRESH MBATS—THE SUPPLIES OF VEG.

From that time on this ferry has been continued in various shapes. For awhile there was a second landing, also on the Virginia side, on tite corporation property at Duke street dock. In 1799 the ferry landing was moved from Fishtown to the foot of Fayette alley, where it has since remained, the Maryland side janding being removed to ‘*Berry’s,” where it now is.

Dr. Noble Young, the {all physician, asked him to pause a moment, and then turning to the assembled doctors he made a brief speech. His remarks were directed more tothe superintendents of insane asylums, who were largely represented then anybody else, and was intended as a mark of courtesy to them.
