THE VIRGINIA WATERING PLACES | OLD POINT COMFORT AS REGENERATED. New and Startling Hystente Principles Discovered There. Dygeia Hotels and Hygiente Oyster Stands and Shoe Shops. — Joff. Davis’ Watering Place for the Present Season. Mow It Looks with Bon, Butler's Improvements, ‘de, &e. ao, ar Old Point Comfort Correspondence. Otp Pot Comrort, Va, June 9, 1865, ‘A great many years ago—long before Merrimecs or Monitors were thought of—the waters around Old Point Comfort wore famous. The fathers of Powhatan and ‘other fierce and swarthy human beings, who made the Anterior of the Old Dominion colony #0 uncomfortable for the subjects of England's Vircin Queen, were wont to ‘visit this deli btfal spot in thoir moments of relaxation from works of bleed to snif the health-giving breozes from off the big sea, to strain their terrible muscles by ‘exercise in good birchen bark on tho broad waters of the Chosapeake, to sare and hook the then unsuspecting ‘nny beanties of thone waters, to Iay on their backs by the shore of the bay smoking “Sir Walter Ralvigh’s weed,” laughing low guttural laughs and blinking at the shining water—in all their Inzy life charading the game for the Old Point—“Comfort.”” ‘Through the long subsequent years in the intervals be- tween the wars of the Rovolution, of 1812 and of 1861— each of Which invested it with frosh historical interost— ‘Old Point Comfort maintained tts attractiveness as a placa ‘of summer resort, and finally became as widely known, ‘both at home and abroad, as any of our enchanting bdreathing-holos alone the coast of the States, The little Village of Hampton sprung up on the base of the Point, ‘and grew in beauty until its white cottages lost the ‘bycone appearance peculiar to seaside residences of only ‘@ fow years’ standin, and the little brick church of the place was clothed with mow and shadowed by grown-up trees. Pathbo: ses and bonthouss along the beach, hotels and boarding houses along the shady fonds, furnished ample accommodation to the people who flocked to Old Point for improve- mont in health and for recreation, The lavish expenditure of money by the government brought up that great military stronghold on the Point known as Fortress Monroe, and the society of the summer haont ‘was enlivened by the presence of United States Army officers, many of whom have since made thoir names his- torical, Thero were country drives up the peninsula, through carden farma, where the air was thick with the intoxicating scont of mavnoiias; thero was boating and Ancipient yachting on the bosom of the bay, aud bathing in ite mild curf, “Blue Point,” “Peachblow”’ and other marvels in the oystor family, struck a sympathotie chord ‘in the breasts of Old Point epioures which vibrated all slong the Atlantic cvast und taught the noble mace Of good livers new dolighta in shollfich. ‘These were some of the comforts of Olid Point Comfort down from the time little Pocahontas ‘was uncaged from her mother’s bark basket to the in- @uguration of the great rebellion, which changed the ‘@spect and condition of the place quite as much, though Got as sadly, as hurdreds of other enticing spots in Vir- ginia. I believe I have material enongh for columns of description of Old Point as it was, but ita old acquaint- aces would much profer to know it as it in, HOW TO GxT IKKE, The most available route irom ‘“civilization’’ at pre- ‘ent is that down the Chesapeake Bay from Galtimore, The military vice has been un- ‘crewed so many turns recently that the humblost Uitizen of this democratic country may make the trip now, “provided he 4 provided’? with the necessary funds, The Old Bay lino of steamers, familiar to most travellers on the Chesapeake, is work- ing in opposition to the new “Leary line,” and tho “ataunch, new, commodio’s, fast sailing’? sidewhec! ‘teamers of both lines go down with full passencor lists aightly, leaving Baltimore at six o'clock, Theso boats an in connection line up the ‘“Jeems’’ river to Richmond, and I suspect this fact wif account for the crowds upon the boats each way.

All these people pay well for the inestt- mable privilege of coming wp into civilization. Oppe- ition here does not bring any pecuniary deneft to the traveller. Government boats run between Fortress Mon- roe and Washington at irregular times, only for the benefit of government. WONDERS OF THE BOOMERANG. I stood by with hands in pockets the other night, on ene of these bay boats, and witnessed the manner in which a shaft hurled at virtue and goodness may be often turned aside and return to the hosom of the dealer with redoubied foree, A released rebel from the North, on the boat, had it in mind tu udvuinister a slight bluw to the cause of temperance, and walked to the bar for that purpose, .

CHANGES IN FOUR TEARS, Four years of war have worked many changes in the eppearance of Old Puint—-nowhcre more observable than in the immediate vicinity of the fort.

THE POTENCY OF A GOOD NAMB IN BUSINESR, As I passed along the road to Hampton and into that little burg, the frequeney with which tho term Hygeia arrested my eye was the cause of mental remark. There were bygeia pl where “bere” was sold, and onions hung in garlands under the porch; there wero hygela houses where “ovsters conld be had into every stile;” hygeia hovel where aged darkies repaired boots and shocs—at least I supposed these were hygeia places, although the aged Afs invariably spell and pronounce the Attractive term “hyyee."” They tell me there is a great deal in this. Customers are quick to bite at opportun!- wd to ret boots tapped and kettles mended on hygienic principles. MODERN HAMPTON. I strode into Hampton at a rattling pace, although the sur was flerce; looked at it a moment and Hampton was burned, fe know, and this is the Phoonix. The rning of the little brick church were about the only reminders of ancient days, The church yard, whore He the bones of many American officers who died at the post in vears gone by, is overgrown with weeds and garlic how, sack. vegetation and. untried shrubbery hide the graves in many places, and the place is a complete, rad ruin, Hampton is peopled by new comers, principally dark skinned, with just a dash of the white race, subsisting and waxing fat, too, by commeretal transactions with the black majority. 6 negro’s get money by shoe-mending, fishing and other methods, and expend it frecly. A novel article cireulater jetween merchant and cnstomer in the way of chenge—no less than hard sweet cakes, which are slapped down fearlessly by active clerks in lieu of a4 pera, They are legal tender here, as shingles are wi the people in the mountains of Berkshire, Mass. UP THE PENINSULA. ‘They tell me that the land proprietors up the Penin- sula are retting back into the'r old groove again, and working their fertile places for the benefit of the North- ern summer veg*table market. Truck is three or four weeks earlior heretban in Baltimore, Philade!phia and New York, and tho time to market is onty twelve hours. They make considerable money, and are extremely jeal- oplo who attempt to settle in this rerion. Land insula really worth one hundred and fifty dol- lars per acre cannot be bought of them for double that gum. A S9UTH AFRICAN WILAGR. The negro population in the neighborhood of Hamp- ton is probably not far from four thougand, the greater portion of which occupy the interesting village of Slab- town. I visited 8. and found it a study. It is laid out on the general pian of Washington city (whence lib- erty emanates), I judge, from a hasty inspection of the principal streets; though why they did not imitate Salt Lake City more closely I cannot imagine. Grades of so- ciety ere well defined in Slabtown, as in towns of more pretence. During my short walk through the place I learned to pot the residences of tho élit: by glimpacs at the interiors through the open doors, There is uniformi- ty in the honsea, ao far as material and style of architec. thre cora—the dwellings being built of rough barrel stares, or slabs split out with the axe, one story, withont attic or bascment. Shoe shops and restaurants are butlt on the same plan, afew feet rednced. Residences of cultured people are marked by a blanket partition and il- Justrated newspaper hangings on the walla. There are two or three public squares, with stagnant ponds, fringed with old boots, bottles, bones, &e,; yet the “‘hy- gece” of the town is very good. The functions of Manicipal officers are exercised by sergeants and gol- qdicrs, who administor justice without hesitation when turbnient epirits break the peace of this Arcadia. It may b> inquired what supporta the inhabitants of Slab- town, and T am not prepared to answor the question sati-factorily. It is surprising how many darkirs have been brought up to shoomaking, and how onsily the thickest head comprehends the business of selling beer and black tobacco; still more a mystery where the buy- ers come from in community where all are sellers of the samo articles, At one time government rationa and medicines were furnished them on their own requisi- tion; but when it was discovered that each member of a family of five, for instance, would “requfriah,”” and get provisions for the whole, that tap was cut off. So, too, in the medicine line. The practice of drawing vast quantities of castor oil for sick babies and using it to grease advit wool was considered roprehensible by the overnment anthorities and stopped. Drs. Seymour and ‘ellowby watch the hygeia of the Africun since he has become Americaniz What with fishing, doing odd Jobs here and there for the farmers Oak cl ere, Dlacking boots, velling lemonade to sol working in the Quartermaster’s Department, the denizens of Slab. town manage to exist and enjoy whatever there is of comfort at Old Point, which, as a watering place for peo- pie in higher life, will not revive for many yoars. “IMPORTANT FROM THE GULF.

The North American Turner Unio: The New York Turn Verein has just tasued a circular, addressed to the Turner associations of North America, which discloses some important points in reference to tho political and social position of the Turner organizations tm this country. Lately a convention of the Turner organizations was held at the city of Washington, where fifty-nine usevcia- tions were represented by thirty-eight delegates, and the result of the proceedings of this convention (allegemeine Tegeatcung) wae the oranization of the North American Turner Union, and the selection of New York as vorwrt (headquarters), the officers of the New York Turn Verein ‘deing chosen as the heat of the organization. / The principal plank in the platform adopted by the convention, to which spec.al attention ia calledin the address, is as follows: — “The Turner Bund considors that tn dealing with pnbilo affairs fie this country im tho manner agin most cases It ia done there are great obstacles in the way of true liberty, and the Union declares it to be the duty of each and avery avsoviation to instruct its members in refor. ence to the varions political questions, and to make, aa far ae they are concerned, every effort against every kind of political corruption.

[Sprinefield correspondence of the Chicaro Republican. 1 In the Republican of June 3 was published an editorial article with an extraot headed ‘<A Scrap of History,” and which gives an account of General Sherman’s written [cord against General Grant's circultous march around of Buy that ksburg, and by which he cut himself off from his base ; describes how Genoral Sherman directed protest be forwarded to Washington; how Gene- ral Grant never did so forward it; but when ig was about to surrender, tore it up in General Sherman’s presence, much to the nutisfaction of the T have no doubt of the truth of the st ae It per- foctly tallies with an account (which I have often heard related by parties who were present) of the way in which Grant is eaid to have come to the determination of making tho extraordinary and novel military move- ment by which he captured Vicksburg, and which move- ment was evidently entirely one of his own invention, and greatly adds to the milfary genius of the man. The people have not (probably because of General Grant’s native modesty) been heretofore willing to give him credit for originality of m’nd, or for that matiiary genius (which 1s the hichest form of mental power) and which conceives as well as executes, In fact, I have ‘hoard officers and soldiers assert that to Genoral Sherman alone was due the credit of planning the entire campaign, which resulted in the capture of Vicks- burg; when the truth is, that campaign was the conception of Gencral Grant himself. And more than thie, the most brilliant movement of it was undertaken contrary to the advice of General Sher- man, and in the teeth of his written protest. To Gene- ral Grant, then, must be accorded the praise of having not only conceived it, but also of having, by his indomi- table pluck, self-reliance and dogged obstinacy (the lat- ter trait rising to heroism in the case), carried this great movement to a successful termination, in spite of the ‘opposition of General Sherman, in whose judgment and military talent he reposed such rreat confidence. The account of the manner by which General Grant ‘was led to make the great movoment which resulted in the capture of Vicksburg {s as follows:—On the Ist of April, 1863, Generals Grant, Sherman, Ogleaby, Seore- tary of State 0. M. Hatch, of this State; Auditor Jease K. Doeboia, United States Marshal D. L, Phillips, Con- frersman Mitchell, of the Fort Wayne district Indian: Commodor» Porter, and various othor naval officers were on board the flagship of Commodore Porter's squadron (The Black Hawk, I think), Thoy had been up the Yazoo river to Haines’ Bluff on a reconnoissance of the fortifica- tions, and were returning. The party were seated in the cabin of the flagship, and an animated discussion was [va forward between General Sherman, Hon. Jesse K. nbo's and Hon. D, L. Phillips, all good talkers, ang lov- Ing to talk, too, The topic was the question of slavery, the offect of the war upon it, &c, General Sherman contended that slavery had nothing to do with the war, and should not be made to enter into it; that the South- erners were high-toned gentlemen ; that he had no objec- tion to slavery per se; that the war would Inet fifteen years, and that the South could only be made to succumb after thoy had beon virtnally all but exterminated; also that it was a war between the Puritans and cavaliers. Mesars. Dubois and Phillips, especially the former, stoutly combatted these ideas. Mr. Dnbois contended that slavery was the cause of the war, and that it must be re- moved before a Permanent penes could be secured; also that, as regarded the duration of it, if those in charge of it would only do their duty it could be closed up in a short timo; that the people of the North had given them men and money in almost unlimited numbers and amounts, and that the result was in their hands, with every appliance to a successful termination. Mr. Phillips then took up the conversation with General Sherman on the subfect of slavery, and Goneral Grant. who had re- mained’a silent listener during the other discussion, with the inevitablo cigar batween his lips, withdrew from the cabin to the deck, and Mr. Dubois followed him. The General had not beckoned the Auditor from the room, but both appeared to be drawn together by one of those mental attractions for which there is no accounting. Upou deck a conversation ensued between the two, the utterance of which is as follows:— General Graxt—Uncle Jesse, to tell you the trath, I Dave come to my wil id as regards the capture of Vicksburg. I do not really know what next move to make. I have tried everything I could think of, and hera wo are yot. Ihave been advised that wo go back a, Memphis ‘and commence an overland march from that ry Mr. Dusers—General Grant, you cannot do that. If yon take this army back to Memphis, with all this array of gunboats and transports and all your materiel of war, tho effect will be disastrous gn the country. This infer- nal constitution in our State was only defeated by sup:r- human exertions. Another election is almost upon us, and the whole Northwest is on the verge of revolution. If you go back you strenzthen the hands of the traitors and K. G. C.’sat home. They will call your movement & retreat, and more loudly than,ever assert that the South cannot be conquered. If you can do no better, You must storm Vicksburg. If {t costa the lives of forty thousand men it must be taken. It Is a terrible thing to think of, but it must be done, General Grant replied that hie would reflect upon the Mattor duringthe night and let Mr. Dubois know of his Getermination‘in the morning, When the morning came, Goneral Grant mot Mr. Dubois with a cheerful counte- the following conversation took place :— Grant—Uncle Jonse, _ aro going home to- day; tell Governor Yates and {he people of Illinois for me that [ will take Vicksburg in sixty days. Mr. Douors—General Gi: Tam glad to hear you say this; but all Task yon to allow mo to tell them is that you will take Vicksburg, Idon’t care whether in sixty days or insix montha. General Grixt—I am ‘bound to take it, Tbave de- cided on my plans, T will not toll you what they are. Even with the best intentions you might disclose them to the detriment of ths movement. ‘They then parted, and General Grant detailed his plon to General Sherman, who protested in writing, as detailod bab article, but placed himself under the General’a orders. Auditor Dubote went home and told Governor Yates that Gran! would take Vicksburg; that he had no doubt of it; that General Grant told him to tell him so, and that he must tell it to the people as coming from Genoral Grant. It will be remembered that the promise of Gene- ral Grant was published in the papers at the time, and that Governor Yates repeated it from the stump. General Grant's next move was to send for Gencral John A. MoClernand, and ortered him to march hia corps from Milliken’s Bend to Grand Gulf. General MeClernand proposed some changes in the details of the plan; but General Grant cut him short by saying that he had digosted and arranged the entire details for the move- Mont, and only required him—General McClernand—to execute his orders. General McClernand then said he would do that to the best of his ability, and departed on his expedition. And hore it may bo well to add, thatat this time stren- uous efforts were being made at Washington for the re- movel of General Grant. Not ouly West Point was ar- rayed against him, but republican members of Con; some of them from this State, went to Mr. Lincoln al urged his removal, taking beck the'r former endorse- ments of him. Leading republican papers in this State also loudly denounced him, and clamored for his super. cedure. At this time a leading republican and retired Officeholder from this State, who had been down the river buying cotton, wrote a'letter to Mr. Lincoln de- nouncin Genoral Grant, predicting his failure, and urg- ing the appointment of Genoral Pope to his comma He brought tho jotter to Hon. ‘0. M. Hatch, then Secre- of State, and one of Mr. Lincoln's most Intimate friends, and asked him to drect it, but did not show him its contents. He represented to Mr. h that Mr. Nicolay, who had been Mr. Hatch’s deputy clerk, freeing the hand writing, would hand it to Mr. ‘Lincoln. Hearing of tho occurrence, and suspecting a trick, Mr. Dubols made Mr. Hatch write a letter to the Preaident, which both signed, and which urged h'm to do nothing against General Grant; that they had been down the river, and, #0 far as they had any. thing to say in the matior, they were perfectly satisied with him, Subsequently to the capture of Vicksburg Mr. Dubois was _ rainy to obtain a sick furlough to for his 0 son, at the stege and was then in a Mem- phis ital. Mr. Liucoln himself wont to the War office with Mr. Dubois to’ obtain the furlough. Return- ing from office, and while Mr. Lincs Mr. D. L. Philtipa wore standing at the railing which poparates the War Office grounds: thone of the White House, the following conversation, in substance, took place :— 5 it, I do not lke General ing those prisoners at Vickwbfiry.

Ovation to the Veterans. Mayor Gunther has presented the following oommant- cation to the Common Council :— Mayor's Orrice, New Yorx, Juno 15, 1868. ‘To Taw Horonaste Tax Common Counctu:. Gantrgmen—I have received a communication from your honorable body requesting me to recommend “suit- able measures to be taken to ge our noble and devoted Volunteers @ reception worthy their brave deeds and great sacrifices for the honor and Union of this country on their return to their homes.” I need hardly state that I feel honored and gratified by the compliment im- Eee in this invitation, and avail myself of the or nity thus afforded to express my opinions on this }- cate and important subject. As you are aware, the Legislature has hmited the ap- propdation for “Clty contingencies” to $40,000 for the current year, exclusive of an itom of $35,000 set for the ex; attending the obaoquies of the late sident. m, it was designed, should be jealously uarded, fi the fact that the concurrerice of the Mayor required before any portion of {t can be expended, and it is evident that without the most rigorous economy It will not suffice to answer the demands that will be made upon it in the ordinary course. Whatever differences of sentiment may have oxisted with reference to the objects of tho civil strife just ended, or the means used in its prosecution, Iam not aware’ of any as to the gallantry and devotion of the brave soldiers who have been engaged in this tremen- dous struggle, Their patriotism has been ax sincere as their bravery has been irreproachabie. I honor the one and admire the other; and, while bidding them welcome to thelr homes, I cherish the hope they may not here- after be called on to draw their swords in defence of the principles of the conatitution, as they have done for the territorial intogrity of the Union. ‘A grand ovation would bo highly proper If the arm were expected in one vast coluinn. To receive en Tegiment as it reaches the city, seperately, would be very expensive and entirely unsatisfactory To ask those who are in baste to viait thotr families and homes to remain here for the sake of a mere parade would be an cmpty mockory. This, then, I propose, on the coming celebration of the Fourth of July:—Let all the veterans of the army in this city be invited to join, and be received by the civil and military authorities with every demonstration of tand honor. ile thus welcoming the soldiers who have risked and sacrificed so much, Wo may mort appropriately unite in mutual congratulations on the rvstoration of peace among the component parts of our political system, re- new the pledges of good feeling with onr fellow citizns of all parties, and let the past bury its dead issues in the forgiveness of the present and the forgetfulness which will follow. If I do not groatly mistake the linorality of the citizens of Now York, thoy will respond to any reasonable appeal of your honorable body, and thus, without greatly ex- ceeding the usual cost df the time honored anniversary of American independence, with their aid the returned soldiers will enjoy the fclat of a civic triumph and tho hospitalities of the wealthy and generous inhabitants of our city. ir the suggestion tm favorably considered I shall be happy ty Join with your honorable body tn carrying out its details, or any other plan that may be deemed more Judicious, GODFREY GUNTHER.

On the 3d of May last Mary Brown, alias Frances Stan- ley, @ shrewd shoplifter, who is woll known to our crimipal authorities, was arrested for committing a theft at the store of Messrs, A. T.

Not suspecting anything wrong, the officer with his substi- tute p down Centre sireet to tho corner of Worth, and at that point the woman started towards Broadway. She was gently reminded by the officer that she was his prisoner, and requested her to to prison without giving him further trouble. In reply, the officer was told that he would do well not to insult @ respectable lady, or else she should be compelled to report him to his superiors and her husband for pun'shment. The woman then raised her veil, and to the officer's surprise and hor- Tor, he discovered that instead of having Mary Brown in charge, ho had a strange woman whom he bad never seon before. In his excitement the officer allowed the woman to go about her business, and rapidly down Cen- tre stroet in search of Mary Brown, who had so shrewd- ly given him the slip; but he was unable to find her. A few days since District Attorney Hall called upon Cap- tain Jourdan, of the Sixth and requested him to make an effort to arrest ie fugitive crimi- The captain took charre of the case, and subsequently received information which led bim to believe that Mary was secreted ina cortain house near Yonkers, up the North river.
