H. Oxry, Esq. :— Dear Srx—We have noticed in Fitzgerald’s Philadel- phia City Item of Saturday, the 14th, an article statin; that a gentleman of Boston proposes to give the one-thi of 10,600 in aid of the American Dramatic Fund, provided be can find two other gentlemen to make up the balance of the amount. I am authorized to inform you that James HH. Caldwell, Eaq., of New Orleans, as an mem- confessed and accepted. With Jones’ Wood and Conrad’s Park and Hoboken, ‘the happy” of other days, it would not hayeeven a chance, and yet Sunday after Sunday crowds fill ‘the cars,” the connecting link between Brooklyn and this Arcadia of young Brooklynites. East New York proper lies some five miles east of the Fulton ferry, and cars start thereto on each arrival of a boat. It has latterly attracted the attention cf the police, no on account of any rowdyiem occurring there, but upon the same principle which presents the necessity of send- ing police to the scene of a peaceful pienic; not to pre serve order among the revellers, but to secure them chance annoyance of any stray rowdies that, like birds of panes ‘be attracted by the smell of afeast There be one particular attraction at East New York to compencate for a drive there. On the contrary, when the cars halt, the uninitiated—that is, all who have not been already there—who may fail to read this notice might exclaim, ‘What's to be seen here?’ Natural enougn that, for there is no sound of music breaking upon the ear. Dear music that can touch ‘ond all else the soul that loves it much. No from out whose umbi shadows gleam bright forth glimpses of rustic hostelry, where — bier and ice cream may be enjoyed ad lititum. No wide spreading. tree—a sequestered nook With seats beneath its shade, For talking age and whispering lovers made. None of these attractions meet the eye or ear, and hence the question, what is to be seen? A little farther op, patient reader, and a pleasant stroll presents to your Kg beautiful vistas of ample landscape, gleaming now in all the rich hues of a golden harvest, fottea here and there with beautiful villas, the homes of the happy of these cereal stores which spread out on every side. Away and beyond this lovely scene rise the dark (ria trees which skirt the view, affording a delightful setting to the picture upon which the sua from the distant west has cast a golden coloring, and beyond the girdle of woodland, but out of sight and hearing, stretches the blue Atlantic. Too sanguine reader, learn that the Atlantic is some four miles off, and you must again commit if to these dreadful cars, or else ‘One of the most characteristic phases of New York life is the zest with which the toiling portion of the population enter into Sunday enjoyments, in spite of the efforts of the so-called Sabbath Committee, backed by an arbitrary and ‘unconstitutional law, to keep them immured within un- wholesome brick walls. Persons who are accustomed to hard work through the week, and spend their nights, perhaps, in the ill-ventilated apartments of tenement houses, are apt to think that they sufficiently mortify the flesh during the six working days, and, therefore, are not disposed to contiriue the depressing process on the one day set apart by the com- mon consent of nearly all Christendom as a joyous holi- day. And as Sunday excursion traiis are not in vogue in this country, it is no wonder that the facilities which our two noble rivers, together with the spacious bay and the waters of the sound afford, should induce them to seek, in the innumerable delightful retreats with which sea and river coast are studded, that repose and quiet enjoyment which were denied them in the noisy city. Accordingly, we find steamboat excursions among the cheapest and most popular means whereby the sons and daughters of toil can escape from the busy hive during the prevalence of the summer beats, and “under the green wood tree’’ recruit their exhausted frame, and invigorate both body and mind for the labors of the coming week. Year after year Sunday excursions are on the increase; and perhaps during no former season breeze at the same time. playing community, viz: the Elysian Fields, we met par- | with more now in the heyday of youth, and | have they been more in vogue than the present summer. | per of the Dramatic Fund, will make one of the ae Park.

Captain Dowling and policeman Riordan, of tho Sixth precinct, who arrested the accused, state that the evidence of Mary {s partially corroborated by the records of the Coroner's Oitice. It appears that Coroner Jackman held an inquest upon the body of the deceased on the Slst of July, 1550, when, according to the testimony of policeman Sherlock, it was shown that de- ceased was found in a sitting postare almost ip the exact spot indicated by the prosecuting witness.

During the week the fine steamers Sylvan Grove and Sylvan Shore go to Harlem, but on Sunday they are withdrawn, and their place is filled by tug boats. Yesterday the steam. boats Only Daughter, G. B. Fraser, James A. Stevens and the Island Home were plying between Harlem and Peck slip, stopping at Jones’ Wood and other places, to take up a deposit of passengers; but owing to the very uncertain state of the weather, their decks were nearly bare, and one could have an entire bench to himself, if he was lazily inclined. aoe of the weather, there was a outery y lay about the exceedingly tanta- izing way in which the rain was threatening to come down at any moment, and destroy the gay Sunday dresses of the people.
