THE NEW YORK HERALD. Vol, X., No, 201—Whole No, 3801. THE ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY HERALD. A FOURTH EDITION REQUIRED ! Wonderful Success of Newspaper Literature. Monday, we published a third edition of many thousands of the Mlustrated Weekly Herald, con- taining an account of the riots in Philadelphi: ‘We hav’ now printed a fourth edition of just as many thousands, to supply the demand for the “ Great Western,” and packets yet to sail. The manner in which this illustrated Weekly Herald has been received by the public has asto- nis ed even us, who were long since prepared to be astonished at nothing. Many attempts have been heretefore made to establish pictorial papers in this city, but from their invariable want of suc- cess, the poverty of the effort, want of talent and genius in managing it, it was supposed that such a thing could not be made to succeed here. We have shown, however, that such a paper, if proper- ly got up, is certain of receiving ample patronage and support. One of the most curious results of the popularity of this paper has been, thata great proportion of the recent sales have been amongst the Irish—the most pious and determined followers of Bishop Hughes, who bought the beautiful illustrated Herald in the very face of his bull of excommunication against all who would touch or look at the Herald. We mean to continue at proper intervals, and as occasion may require, the publication of Mus'rated Weekly Heralds. We have four or five artists al- most constantly in our employment; and we are prepared to give graphic illustrations of the pro- ress of society, and all important events in the most expeditious, accurate, and graphic style. As soon as the excitement of these riots is over, we shall enter on the work of illustrating the manner in which the two great parties are conducting the Presidential contest, by means of engravings, of the beauty and excellence of which no one can form any conception until they are published.

Jamas Gorpon Bennett, Esq :— Amidst all the communications published in your excellent paper, Ido not often see ene from this place. It isnot, however, because we have nothing inthis country worth writing about—nor should our negligence be attributed to a want of interest There are only three or four copies of the Herald taken in this village, and to make up the lack of interest in other city papers, these are borrowed from door to deor, until they are read by almost the entire reading portion of felt in your paper. our citizens. This is a country of exquisite beauty, though Its rich and picturesque variety of hill and dale,the spontaneous often styled the sequestered region. fertility of its soil, the sweetness of its climate, the clear and rippling stream that rolls along the border counties of New York iato the State of Pennsylvania, with such charming magnificence— all contribute to the comfort and happiness of its inhabitaats. With the exception of a few moral and social evils, and some talse notions of etiquette, which exist among the self styled aristocrats of eur vil- lage, we are highly favored in e social point of view. At the female seminary may be found some fifty or sixty young ladies; most of them of surpassing beauty, und accomplishments suitable to adora the most polite and refined society. At the female in- stitute are also many young ladies of great werth, and rare virtues. Strange as it may appear, we have not, in our village, more than four or five young gentlemen of intelligence and refinement enough to render them worthy of the society of this fairy throng ; and these are gentlemen of business, who pay litte attention to matters of gallaotry.— The iadies of Owego are like fairies in a fairy land, doomed to wile away their leisure moments in ideal fancies ; or stoop to social converse with a lew vagrant beaux, who— fever had a dozen thouglits In all their life ; and never changed tueir course, But tell them o'er each in its ‘custom’d place”— Of these Mr. - Mr. ——, Mr. ——, and the hopeful son of dence of the poet, N. P. Willis) and as sundry ex- suggested by the hopeful son of the Dr., that they had better provide fora large party, and invite the second class of young gentlemen to accompany them. Accordingly, invitations were given out to four or five young gentlemen of highly respectable talents and of rare accomplishments, yet so re- tiring were they in their manners, that they had been styled the second class. All things being pre- pared, the teams commenced running their respec- tive ne at 3 o’clock, P. M. and at 5 the gay, fan- tastic throng had assembled at the gien. _ The tables were spread upon the classic ground in front of the poet’s once happy home. After the luxurious repast, prepared by the delicate hands of the angelic choir, was over, we sought amusement among the ruins of the deserted para- dise. A variety of scenery, and a variety of amusements attracted my observation, more de- lightful and more enchanting than I had ever wit- nessed before. , Some were walking by the limpid stream, while others were wafted o’er its sunlit bosom—some were strolling o’er the lawn, while others stopped in a shady nook to catch the pure and gentle breeze that floated o’er the beautiful landscape—some were singing in groups with wild enthusiasm, while others listened the while to catch the sound from off their angel lips—some were dancing or waltzing in the cottage, while others were looking on, entranced with the beauty and gaiety which surrounded them.— Mr. ——, from ba Heat ee attracted my _particu- lar attention by his flirtations with Miss ——. He gazed upon her with a roguish leer, while her towering head performed sundry evolutions with her flowing ringlets. At the door of the library stood Mr. —— peering over his glasses, and casting an imploring look at Miss ——. He asked her many silly questions about the literary productions ot Mr. Willis; and amongst other things he inquir- ed whether the Poet wrote his incidents of travel before, or after, he went to Europe? "Tis passing strange that he should have been so forgetful of what had been thrice told him betore, concerning Mr. Willis’s incidents of travel when abroad— “ 0 weak his memory, ‘The nome his mother called him by Remembers” — Solitary and alone stood Col. —— gazing into the heavens, as if meditating whether if the man in the moon should catch a fall, he would fall on head or back. At length he was aroused from his revery by Mr. ——, who passed along with Miss upon his arm conversing in deep and pene tones upon the subject of matrimony. This same Miss —— formed an early alliance with Mr. ——, a tall fine looking gentleman who wears @ pair of whiskers Laced upon either cheek with a classical curve.— ext in order came the solemn and affectionate at- tentions of Mr. ——, of Ithaca. He also abandon- ed his enterprize for some cause unknown. Last- ly came the proposal of Mr. —. “So when the lion quits his fell repast, Next prowlathe woil, the filthy jackal last.’ The next scene which called my attention was Mr. —— conversing in ‘windy suspirations of forced breath,” with a group of the Seminary la- dies, upon the absurdity of the plan of having music and dancing ata Picnic. He insisted that he had cleared his skirts by apprizing them beforehand that there would be music and dancing, and a visin, them to stay away. Near by stood —— exhortin the ladies to hasten to their carriages and flee from the scene of merriment, because the dancing had commenced, and they were in dunger, not of being contaminated, but of being arraigned before the court ecclesiastical. His conscientious scruples were aroused by the fact that he had recently pass- ed the fiery ordeal of a church trial, for the unpar- donable sin of dancing. Among the most refined and beautiful of this gay assembly were Miss ——, of your city, Miss ———, of New Haven, and Mi:s ——, of Boston. At M o’clock the party dispersed, and as the last carriage was passing over the bridge, from beneath he scarce —, are the most prodigal of their sickly smiles, and fawning attentions to the ladies; and for the purpose of attesting their devotion to them, it was proposed a few days since, that a Pic Nic be arranged, at Glen Mary, (the former resi- penses must necessarily be incurred, for teams, mu- sic, ice creams, accaroni, lemonades, Sc., it was which Mr. Willis wrote his celebrated letters, some ' confusion was occasioned by one of the leaders falling partially through. An effort was made to extricate the suffering steed, and he made a tre- mendous leap, prostrating one or two persone in hi course—cleared, the railing of the bridge and lan ed in the deep ravine below. Notwithstanding his fall of some fifteen feet, he came out less bruised than some of the gentlemen who came to his res- cue, Our next business was to revive the tainting spirits of the frightened ladies who had made their escape from the carriage, and convey their almost lifeless forms to their respective lhomesin such way and manner as we could best devise.

The Foolish Attempt at Revolwtion—Particwars of the Death of Sentmanat. Thinking you would like to hear from the State of Tobasco, I take the liberty of giving you the news. For the last six weeks we have been ex- pecting the ex-Governor Francisco Sentmanat, of Tobasco, from New Orleans, with two hundred men, to invade the State, and cause the Federal partly to take up arms against the Supreme Govern- ment. The Government sent the man-of-war brig St. Anna, and schooner Aeglia, to cruize off the port, and board every vessel which hove in sight. In the mean time, General Ampudia enlisted the militia, fortified the bar and barricaded the city, and sent regular troops in all the priacipal villages, and armed all the people in the State to defend it against Sentmanat and the banditti. i On 6th June there appeared off the bar a suspi- cious looking schooner, to which both men-ot-war gave chase; the brig St. Anna sailing the fastest, and coming up with the schooner, the captain of which finding no means ot escape, bore away, and run on the beach, when the St. Anna opened a fire upon her. It proved to be the schooner William A. Turner, ot New Orleans, Capt. Pettit, with General Sentmanat and 53 soldiers, consisting of 3 Americans and 50 Spanish. They immedi- ately jumped overboaid on the beach, some with guns, and some without—the brig and schooner keeping up a brisk fire ull they shot her mast away, fwhen she sank and filled with water, on ac- ccount of the grape from this man of war; they brought away fothing but what they stood in. At 5 o’clock in the evening, the water being smooth, the man of war boarded the W. A. T., and saved what they could, such as the baggage, powder, cartridge boxes, 300 muskets, and various other articles, and then set fire to her. Sentmanat marched towards Chiltipique to get in the interior of the State, and Capt. Pettit joined him. The mate and three sailors, and one passenger, fellin the hands of the government. They are here prisoners under a strong guard. The moment the news was in the village an express was sentto Tobasco, and Gen. Ampudia immediately lett with 400 infantry and 200 cavalry, and the population of the whole State had orders to arm themselves to protect the State. What will be the end God only knows. A great many think there must be some understanding with Sentmanat in the interi- or or he would not attempt such an expedition. On the 8th, the mate of the schooner, a brother to the captain, was taken to the city in irons, ac- companied by the first lieutenant of the St. Anna. On account of this litte émuete, business is at astand. Legwood is scarce at 64 to 7 reals, 30 days; Cocoa, $5 to $8 by the cargo; Provisions are scarce. ‘To-morrow we expect to hear newsot the encounter between Generals Ampudia and Sentmanat. shag) the i The general opinion is, that Santmanat is a ruined man, on account of his bringing foreigners with him to attack tne state—[he has since been taken and killed]—and as General Ampudia since he has been in Tobasco,has been useful to the state and is very much liked by the respectable part of the community—he has done a great deal ot good in Tobasco in repairing the streets, the Govern- ment Bridge, es'ablishing a hospital for the poor, (the latter does him a great deal of credit ;) also a college on the Lancasterian plan, schools for the poor—every one was contented ull now, when we must be disturbed by the ex-Governor Santmanat. Should there be any vessel, I will write you the result of the affair. Lake Mahopack. [Correspondence of the New York Herald } Laxe Mauorack, July 17, 1844. A Day at Lake Muhopack. r Oppressed with lassitude, and needing per- fect repose, I yesterday sought the quiet which reigns in this sequestered and romantic spot. I found its villas, under the care of our ever kind hosts, Monk and Berry, well ordered for the season. They greeted me with that hearty good will which welcomes all to par- take of the solids of their table, or the beauties of the Lake. [cast a look round, and found but few of the friends of by-gone joyous hours. I wander- ed to the hill-tops, and saw no merry groups assem bled as before. 1 took a place at the board, where [have of yore been surrounded with well-loved faces, but all were absent. 4; mounted horre, and leisurely strayed through the gladesI have so often travelled in noisy glee, but now all was silent. 1 returned, and waited to be welcomed by the merry carol of nature’s sweetest warbler, and listened in vain for any of the light and merry steps which had always been the first to meet their returning com- panions. Nought appeared of all that had relieved tedious time of her leaden wings. A sedatencss came over me,'and I regretted the sad change. J called before me, in image, the angered looks which absent friends would bear, did they but view that alteration in the manners of the place which I now gazed oa. The dress which nature gave is bright on all the isles, and the toliage which fills the fragrant glens as dense as in any of the happy years that I have passed among them. In the one the song of the joy-tongued birdsis feebly to be heard—in the other, the silent ripple of the chrystal water as subduing asever. The limpid waters of the lake as placid as if they bore upon them some of the former ob- jects of our care. The ripples, when they rose, si- lenuy passed away, as if unwilling to bid a wel- come to one straying friend. Nearly all seemed touched by gome megic influence,which had spent itself in blighting the sources of pleagure which had been, in other times, so lavishly drawn upon, and never in vain. I need not tell you that [ moral- ized over the means which had been so success- fully employea to work out this great change —and I realized how unendurable life would become if the ties of friendship should be severed —either by absence or by passion. The solitary spot | now tread would be a fitting emblem of the world; were friends to be wanting thetairest scenes in nature would be uninviting, and the richest gifts of generous earth would be borne, to be neglected and unsought. But, of the reality, it is fitting that {should say something. The visitors are affable and polite; the ladies, some beautiful, and all kind; the gentlemen more dignified than usual, and appa- rently practising its extremes for their return to the city; but, as David saith, “ thon hast set them in slippery laces.” Mr. J—s, and his new and beau: teous bride, appeared to be happy in their change of condition, and careless of the therny path which all must tread; they have ~ wish that they may avoid it. Mr. A. and his blooming lady, seem a fair example of acontented pair; and their fair little cherub dances before them in smiles and eee Mr. B., and hia amiable, beautiful, and light-hearted spouse, shed around themselves a halo, to approach which banishes ennui. Mrs. F. with her agile step, as a young fawn, in happy hu- mor, flits through the scenes which now cause sor- row to me; she anticipating the return of the mer- riment, which I fear, has too surely been banished into some more genial atmosphere. The lady and the family of Bishop O., draw around them a very large circle of acquaintances and friends. Mr. 8. bears the nearest approach to the manner of former times of any that I see around me—tim: can work no change inhim. Mr. A, the gentle- manly and retiring, has friends in all he meets. Mr. E. dances with the same grace, enjoys a quiet joke, complains of restless sleep, vows vengeance on all disturbing creatures, is the first on the Lake at dawn, and the least likely to tail of any of his compeere in youth or beauty when put totrial. Mr IL believing the man who assumes least will be most respected, is always ready to be the compa- nion or the guide of the new visitors to the spots of attraction about the Lake. To see him oa horseback you would think that the man and horse were one, 80 well formed, and so practised equestrian—for any fun, you may count hii or Aw revoir—enough of particulars for the present, and as my stay may be for many weeks, I shall oc- casionally wile away an hour in recounting all our doings, when a mirthful and select assemblage of the best of our citizens shall have sought places among us, and when that uproar of pleasure shall prevail which has always been found prepared for those who were disposed to mingle in it.

Dean Bunnerr Having myseif in this far-famed watering place for the gay season, we will take advantage of the op- portunity to transmit to you—say about three let- ters a week—giving you accurate and minute par- ticularities, sayings, doings, acts, &c., of the “‘mot- | ley crowd,” here assembled, from the wisest philo- sophical, political, metaphysical and monied auto- crats, down to the windy breeched human butter- fly of both species. During the summer season, this is truly a gay and strange place, “black spirits and white” congregate from every section of the Union and the Canadas. It is indeed the theatre of human nature, in virtue, vice, misery, money, politics and philosophy. Life. at this fashionable watering place, oflers exery inducement to the man of the world. The invalid comes here for the restoration of health; the “bon ton” to wile away their ume and show off their follies ; the thoughttul to ruralize ; the wi- dows to luxuriate, and the bachelors to contem- plate. J Here may be seen crack’d belles seeking after halt-crack’d beaux, and decayed beaux sounding the harmonics of rich belles. Match making is “‘all alive” among young and old; bachelors on the quit vive for widows of a tender age; fortune hunters are on the tapis, “‘upand dressed,” and eager for the tray. Coustables, gainblers, id omne genus, ure already in the field, like botanists in the golden meadows, and no doubt both will be amply repaid tor their honest exertions, in discovering the most minute properties of green blades, with yellow flow- ers. ‘The 4th was kept up here with true American spirit. ‘The Firemen and Military from Schenee- tady, together with the Fire Companies from Glens Falls, and this village, made a beautiful display, which we have seldom seen surpassed, even in many of our large ciues. The village amateur band, ‘‘ did itself proud,” and for the short period of practice, acquitted themselves quite creditably. ‘There was an oration by the Rev. Mr. Coxe, in Temple Grove, which was fitted up for the occa sien, seats being laid, anda stage erected, on which we perceived several of the important mouth- pieces of the village, whose word is law with the eomanry, and some of whom, we should judge from their nods, winks, and blinks, fully indicated the expression of Shakspeare, that some men are reputed wise for saying nothing. Guns sent their booming echoes through hill and valley, during ‘‘ Independence Day,” and two of the guns used tor the occasion, were the identical pieces captured on the plains of old Saratoga, at the surrender of Burgoyne, October 17th, 1777.— They were well manned by a couple ot the U.S. Artillery. i ” Flags were displayed from the various public houses, and even amid the all-pervading gloom of the forest trees, the beautitul ‘* star-spungled ban- ner floated high in the breeze. Thousands upon thousands of the ‘boys and gals” flocked in from adjacent paris, with joy writ- ten in their faces, in glorious anticipation of crul- ters, ginger beer and clams; and, from appearances, some ot the “boys,” towards sunset, curried out their intentions, ) and justly showed they were not members ot a Temperance Society. At 8 P.M., in Academy Square, on the left of Temple Grove, about 500 or 600 sat down to a cold repast. All went off harmoniously, speeches were made, toasts drunk, &c. it makes a lover ot his country feel proud to wit- ness the nationality of feeling in the celebration ot our natal day in country towns. An infamous Cantwell has been here blowing ofi gas in one of the Methodist Churches, reviling ev- ery thing good, and trying to elevate everything bad He had about fifty auditors = The more intelligent lett the church, disgusted with his scurrility, low slang and vulgarisms. He 1s one of ihe crew that ure exciting, by their lungs, the deluded to deeds of blood and rapine, such as have been lately witness- ed in the Philadelphia riots. Among the distinguished strangers sojourning at the Springs are Gen. Worth and daughters; Post- master General Wickliffe and family ; Erastus Cor- ning, keq., and lady. Mr. Coruing is one of our State Senators, and celebrated throvghont the Union as an agricultunst; he isa wortiy, distin- guished, self-educated man, who, by dint of perse- verance, industry and honesty,has arisen to distinc tion in rank and wealth, by that great power ot self-reliance which is 60 necessary to be impressed on the minds of all young men who seek pre-emi- nence of station in lite. Senator Corning isa truth- ful exemplification of what honesty, benevolence, and purity of motive will do for one acting his part well on this world’s stage ; and now, in the autumn of his days it does one good to see 80 worthy a man seeking the solid enjoyments ot life, after the duous toil incidentto commercial and senatorial duties, John Van Buren, Marcus Reynolds, Senator Fos- ter, Julius Cwsar Augustus Rhodes, Joshua Spe cer, Mr. Wilderheimer, &c., and Frank Johnsor black brass band have all arrived, and taken rooms at the Union and the United States.

The Great Beauties of Good Eating, Good Drink ing, and Promiscuous Bathing—All the Ladvs Democrats—Their contempt for the Whigs, and sympathy for Governor Dorr—Public opinion re- lative to his imprisonment—A Prophecy. My Dear Frignp :— If you was in the habit of repenting your deci- sions, 1 think you would regret not accompanying me to thistruly delightful spot, for even your fasti. dious taste would be satisfied with the display o! grace and beauty surrounding our {daily table at the Ocean House, while your palate would be re. galed with the choicest dainties of every season and almost every clime; then, the bathing! the sport par excellence—no description can do it jue- tice. Imagine a long mile of shining sand as hard and smooth as marble, washed by “the wide At- lantic,” where for ages the Nereids only have danced and sported fancy on this beach—some twenty carriages whose late inmates after making their sea-toilet emerge from the shanties ranged along for the purpose, armed and equipped (as the law of fashion directs,) in worsted dresses, cork soled shoes, and India rubber caps, and sometimes pairing off as for a waltz or minuet; sometimes joining allhands to make a long, long line, they march boldly and gaily into the eurf, and coni- mence their evolutions. What matter if the force of the waves throws that pale delicate girl into the arms ot yonder licentious libertine, (for you must know every body bathes at the same house,and quite promiscuously) it is all under the water, if not _un- der the rose, and she knows not, thinks not, if it be the tail of a shark, the tangled sea weed, or his petted imperial, that so often trushes her cheek. Heaven! heaven! preserve ba young danghters (if ever I have any) from such ablutions —but there, that little Southern beauty looks eo fresh and sweet as she emerges trem ‘old Nep tune’s wash bowl,” Ecannot feel angry with her, especially since Ihave discovered that she is at ‘heart as earnest a little democrat as any in the Union, intelligent withal and independent in thought and word, You would smile at the indig- nant flashing of her bright eyes, when she hears some zealous whig exulting in prospect of his par- ty’s victorious election of their candidates for Pre. sident and Vice-President, or expressing delight at the conviction and imprisOament of Governor Dorr—while her pretty lip curves disdainfull as she exclaims “how generous! thus to exu over a fallen foe! and how consistent so to rejoice at the anticipated deteat of a party you iflectto hold so insignificaat, so worthy ouly of contempt. By your very exuitation you show that malice and fear, rather than patriotism and jnstice are your governing motives, especially with rege to the recent trial.” And | can assure you, she is hot the only one among us who speaks warmly and kindly of our imprisoned friend; there are Price Two Cents. many ready to peril life and limb to do him ser- vice, ae stout hearts and true, who wait but the roper time to ect as bold) they « his behalf.

Suventy-Six. Ey MINERAL SPRINGS oF THE Uniten States —No country abounds, probably, with a greater variety of mineral springs than the United States. Amongst the most prominent of the saline waters are Sara- toga and Ballston, but the Sulphur Waters abound in most parts of the country. The comparative merits of the latter are, however, but little known, owing to the fact that sufficient pains have not been taken to analyze them. The Virginia Sulphur Springs have, for many yeare, been the resort of invalids and the fushion- able, from all parts of the country, and Avon Springs, in this ctate, have had a just celebrity, The healing powers of these waters are, probably in all cases, aided by the circumstances of com: pany, exercise and diet, and in no email degree by the imagination. The Springs at Sharon, in Scho- hane Sonat, have recently been much resorted to, and have obtained a great reputation amongst int valids, il later, the Springs at Richfield,jin Or sego county, have become more known, and a re- cent analysis by Profeseor Reid, of the city of New York, shows that the springs at the latter places are far superior to all others in their pecu- har medical qualities. Dr. Armstrong, the celebrated English writer on the subject of Mineral Waters, says:— The efficacy of the sulphurous waters at arrowgate and Dunsdale, depends upon the sulphurated hydro- gen gas which they beth contam.” All later medical writers describe the virtues of these waters to the same cause, both in our country and in Eng- land. If'so, the Sulphur Waters in New York, at Richmond, Sharon, and Avon, are superior to ull others yet analyzed in this country, and exceed in efficacy those ot Harrowgate in England.

Richfield, Springs, in Orsego county, are about two hous ride from the Railroad at Herkime where a line of stage coaches is ready daily to tal passengers to the place. The main spring, of whieh the above is an lysis, is situated in the centre of the village. wo fine hotels have been opened here for the accommodation of visitors. Richtield Springs are about 20 miles west of Sharon Springs, andthe Great Western turnpike leads frem place to the other, over which there is daily re ‘ar communication, Carriages are in readiness, also, at both places, and visitors usually aveil them selves in visiting one to go to the other, a8 they did former'y Ballston and Saratoga. Richfield Springs, as a village, is fortunately situated, in having been built up all around the waters; and this cireun stance contributes much to the convenience of v sitors ‘The bathing houses are supplied with water trom the spring,without being elevated by artificial meaus. In addition to this, t invalid’ finds the best of medical advice at hand; as there is a phy- sician ot high reputation resident at the springs, One of the principal attractions to sportsmen is the excellent fishing inthe numerous small lakes in the neighborhood. One of the finest of these lakes is insight of the Spring How The usual accom- paniments at watering places are to be found at Richfield. .
