THE DAY OF REST. Yoney Island on Sunday—A' Watering Place for the Million—The Poor Man's Long Branch— How to Get a Woek’s Roffeshment—A Twenty-five Cent Excursion—Filgrims to Pleasant Valley and Fort Lee. "While the unhappy denizens of so many European Cities are given up to unhealthy excitement just now, with all the ible fears of invasionjand ra- pine, and the scarcely less demoralizing passions of Nindictive triumph and geveral tumult, it must be titying to the patriotic New. Yorker to witness the effects of true democratic-republican government was it ts exemplified by tne demeanor of our citizens every day in the week and particularly on Sundays. As the warm fireside of a sheltered home on a cold winter evening affords a double sense of comfort and peaceful security, when one is conscious that the storm without inflicts its rigors on hundreds of Jess fortunate mortals struggling im the Markness, so the tempest of horrors now aging in the Old World only renders the happy asses in New York capable of realizing the bless- ngs of peace and prosperity at their trae value and of enjoying themselves accordingly. Sunday swith our honest working class is not onty the Sabbath Ol worship, but the holiday of enjoyment also; and While our charches of all denominations are mu- Rical with the hymns of the godly-given in the Morning and again in the evening, the sunshiny hours of the day find the outskirts of the great city alive with swarming thousands of our hard-handed population, who wait for the oniy day that is theirs by human and divine law torush forth from the heated city into the pure air, through the woods and iby the seashore. ‘The inland villages, the nondescript enclosures called “parks” in our suburbs, were heretofore ex- henstvely. patronized by Sunday pleasure seckers ore extensively thar they are now or can hope to to the future. Easy and pleasant access io the shore has opened a new and healthint source of joyment for our working Classes, and they have ot been slow to embrace every opportunity given them of spending the day ol rest on tie singly ‘beach and in the midst of the salt sea waves as they tumble up the sloping shore. Thousands who for- erly toasted theinseives under a breezeless atmos- phere in the “parks” or boiled themselves in bad ron the stoop of some “hotel’’ in a dirty subur- ban village now, happily, betake themscives on Sundays to tie long beach of Coney Island, and ‘ere luxuriate in the coot breezes and blue waves ‘of the Atlantic. Coney Island has become highly popular as A WATERING PLACE FOR THE MILLION. It !s not a place to spend every day of tnree hot Months in, Those who can afford to spend three months or one; mouth at a wateringyplace need not to Coney Island. No accommodations for such ple are to be found there. It looks as though it ere Ssclaly created for the workingman of New ‘York to take himself und his family there in the fore- moon of @ holiday and come back with them In the ‘evening, cool, reireshed und healthy. y At the gate of Greenwood Cemetery yesterday ‘Our reporter entered one of two open sirect railway ears which were attached to a “dummy engine,’? iWhich, in less than three-quarters of an our, traus- ied him and the cars to Coney Island. ‘The coun- ry aloug the rouie was pleasant, green, well wooded and fair to look upon. The track was smooth and Pven; but the cars, though they sulted the owner of ‘the Ime never s0 adnurably, appeared to be mMighuly ill adapted to the comfort of passengers, ‘who were huddied together in quite a dreadful way, every scat entirely too narrow and no space at all for the feet. The passengers themselves were va+ ‘rious as they Were numerous. Here an honest and decent looking Irish laborer, with his wife and haif (dozen children, out for a gala day, was grandly Jooked down upon by a NOBLE DRY GOODS CLERK, who scornfully tugged at@ cheap cigar and wanted to beara striking resemblance to Jum Fisk, Jr. On the next seat sata pale but pleasant iaced pair of youn Seamstresses, trying tocut each other out of he good graces of a smart mechanic, who sat glo- Tlously happy between them, walle at the other side @n wnxious mother held up the wan face of her sick child to catch the cooing breeze. And so the va- qiety extended on to the back seats, where a num. ‘ber of overgrowa boys chaffed one another in terms Anylling but polite ior the evidently in- “feuded edification of all their fellow passen- Ts. The ‘train stopped at a depot formed by the side walls of two large frame buud- 4 A sort of rude platform ran along each side of ‘the track, From each pia:torm @ door ied into either i the buildings, and at each door stood « man, with the assumed authority of a railroad 1, bawled out lusuly, ‘assengers will please ass OU this way.’ Many of the passengers—who ad not “been there” before—stood woefully per- ceo 48 to Which door was the proper oue to go Shronugh; but they finally came to the correct con- ‘clusion thateither way would do, and so succeeded jn gatuing the beach, when they discovered that each nieaus of egress ied to a liquor saloon, whose Yival proprietors were the railroad otficia!s, who ‘Wanted all to pass their way. For two miles along Mme cool, breezy, sandy beach the scene was ciie ful and exhilarating. Thousands of pleasure scek- ers were there, one Lalf standing in ‘ FULL DRESS ON THE DRY SAND, and amusing themselves by watching the ludicrous tics oi the other hal, bait naked in the water. In ill the hundreds of modern shanties, decorated with very conceivable description of bunting, the lager Mowed freely and was absorbed rapidly by thirsty citizens of both sexes and allages. A few disrep- pine and dangerous claracters showed themselves ow and then, and some three-card-monte tables ‘were set up here and there in the shadow of an old bathing box; but the latter failed miserably for want of “flats,’? and the roughs made no sign. A walk of some miles along the beach brought the: reporter to ‘tho steamboat lauding at the western end of the island, where he tound the swift little steamer Sylvan Grove, Captain Wilson, awaiting her cargo of ex-bathers. She had made tnree ips to the tslund, and the captain stated that turee more peaceable and good-humored loads of passengers he never transported out of New York to any destination whatey After a delightful sait up the bay the pieasure-seekers were landed on the Wharf at the foot of Warren strect, and all went dhome thankful ihat they had spent their day of rest by the seashore instead of in the hot city, and feeling refreshed and ready for the coming week’s toll. PLEASANT VALLEY AND FORT LEE. The steamer Thomas E. Hulse, Captain George W. Annett, sails daily from a dock at the foot of Curis- topher street to the picturesque but not populous Jocations on the Hudson river, Pleasant Valley ‘and FortLee. On Sundays the steamer conveys at different intervals during the day a living freight of excursionists to these localities to and iro for twenty- diye cents, and judging from yesterday’s experience ‘Sunday must be about as profitable a day as any day ‘of the week to Mr. Thomas E. Hulse. ‘The boat that is known by his name dogs not bear muuch resemblance to the Plymouth Rock, which Mr. James Fisk, Jr., 1s supposed to navigate. ‘fo speak (with exactitude, there is no resemblance beyond the fact that both are boats, and both are intended to ‘Ball upon the water, ‘Tiere was something very ‘ominous in the badinage kind of ADVICE GIVEN TO THE PASSENGERS yesterday by the loafers on the dock that it would ‘be desirable to insure thetr ilves before ihey started. ‘The Thomas E.

The excursionists on board, when the Thirty-fourth street contingent bad embarked, were all of the ‘Sunday pleasure-taking type. All looked us though they lived laborious days in earnmg their daily breaa, and not a life of laziness and lassitude. ‘The ‘rough and ready element was absent, but the store, the workshop, and the dressmaking barge was ‘ere in force. “Our Fritz,” with his betrothed, \and another Fritz with the betrothed passed into a }wife and mother, with @ not inconsiderabie number ‘of pledges of affection, trom THE MEWLING INPANT in tts nurse's arms to the stout limbed.

The Scenes Yesterday—Joyous Multitudes. Central Park 1ooked in all its glory yesterday— proud of itself, of the metropolis and of the thou- sands of happy looking and well dressed citizens who basked in its cool shades or revelled in the varied beauties of hill and date, and wooded heights and rocky headlands and silvery waters. The New Yorker is never tired of admiring Central Park. In- deed, itis not only the New Yorker who extols its beauties, but Americans from every part of the vast republic who have ever set foot within the confines of this glory of the metropolis speak of it ever afterwards, espe. ctally to foregners, as a kind of piece de reststance, with the beauties of which those of any other park in any other part of the world sink tnto utter insig- nificance. However, comparison with parks In other arts of the world 1s needless; suffice it that all mericans, and ore all New Yorkers, agree that it ts unrivalled ln beauty. at present we have to do, not with the particular oeauties of the Park, but with it ITS APPRARANCE YESTERDAY. The weather was glorious, The sun shone out with just thay degree of vivifying heat which sends a joyous thrill of life through ihe human frame, and which gives the mind @ more wathetic apprecla- Mon of the beauties both of nature and of art. And where but at Central Park are both so well combineJ?

Yesterday, even more than 1s usual on Sundays, the citizens of New York betook themselves to the Park in large numbers. Happ: futhers and mothers, neatly dressed, frolicsome children, and gayly dressed fair ones with thelr attendant awains were to be met on all sides, talking, laughing, chattering, dreai- ing, or quietly surveying the beauties around them. ANIMATED GROUPS clustered around the lakes and fed the swans and admired the curtous looking water fowl, Others stared with vacant wouder gt the picturesquely dressed sou of the desert and his camel, who (the son of the desert, not the camel) seemed wonder- fully content with his present quiet lite, notwith- Standing the recollection of the nomadic one he led among the wild and romantic scenery of that part of Arablu Petrea known as Connemara.

CY MOPROVERENTS. A Consummation to be Deeired—The Removal of the Croton Aqueduct between Ninety -ihird and 112th Streets. >| It has often occurred to those who may hove noticed the high embankment, resembling that of a _ of defence, railroad, which crosses the lutervening streets be- tween Ninety-tnird aud 112th sireets, that it would be a praiseworthy exercise of engineering skill af the said embankment—commonly called the Croton aqueduct—could by any means be removed, and give a chance for the coustruction of level and pass- able roadways in this rapidly growing section of the city. The HeRaLp recentiy called attention to the necessiiy which existed for the re- movai of this obstruction, and it is now giad to be in @ position to announce that eariy m September the work will be commenced, ‘The delay has been occasioned by a laudable desire on the part of the Board of Public Works to examine thoroughiy the surveys and estimates which have been made on various plans, and to reach a ma- tured project before venturing on any work. The aqueduct now occupies the Tenth avenue, between W1oth and 117th streets, and a temporary one will be needed while the prcsont structure Is being re- moved and the permanent pipes placed in the ave- nue, The probable cost of the undertaking will be $1,500,000, It seems that a legai question connected with the change was only decided last week. All is ciear before them now, the various questions raised have been seitled, the plan adopted and the Board, it 1s to be presumed, will lose no further the in getting this great improvement ander way. THE NATHAN MURDER, A Little Progress Made. While the police deny that they have obtatned any important evidence calculated to fasten the crime of murdering Benjamin Nathan upon any one, it is quite certain, from certain movemenis of the de- tectives, that they are still at work. ‘Thar the source from which the dog was obtained is known is be- yonda doubt. Itis certain that tt has been traced to the possession of some burglirs, one of whom was arrested in the Twentieth ward some time ago by Pinkerton’s men, on the charge of participation mn the Wilkesbarve bank robbery, but retained here on a charge of committing a burglary im Broadway. [t js believed by some that the party who dogged Mr. Nathan 4s the pal of this Twentieth ward burglar— one Forrester, who, it will be remembered, mur- dered a man in Cook county, UL, and escaping from the Joliet Penitentiary, nas been at large ever eince, This Forrester 1s the desperado who was rescued about two years ago from Mr. Townley, of Pinker- ton’s corps, by Theodore Allen in front of the St. Bernard Hotel in Prince street, Forrester isa des- perado of the worst kind, and would not hesitate to “slug” his father. The sensational story that Egan, now in the Tombs, is @ friend of Young Kelly, was manufactured out of whole cloth by a Bohemtan Who desires to cast odium upon a young man ugainst whom there is no cause for suspicion. FALL OF A RAILROAD GEPOT IN NEW HAVEN. On Saturday morning, a few minutes past eight o'clock the roof of one ofthe car shops of the New Haven and Northampton Ratlroad Company, in New Haven, fell in, forciug the waus of the structure to fall outward to the ground, and making a complete “wreck of it, The building was a brick one, 130x 76 feet, covered with a slate roof, sup- ported by trusses. The roof being very wide and flat, and the trusses being improperly made, gave way and precipitated the root into the building, The walls appear to have been made with poor mortar, having but little adhesiveness; and when the roof came down the walls on all four sides tumbled down into heaps of brick. Four men, named Benjamin Knapp, Philip Holsupple, Peter and Thomas Quilatte, Were at work in the building and miraculously escaped serious injury. Knapp and Holsupple were braised some, The loss 1s est mated at $20,000. MYSTERIOUS FELONIOUS ASSAULT. At half-past two o’clock yesterday morning ofticer O'Brien, of the Twenty-second ward police, while in Fifty-ninth street, near Seventh avenue, heard cries of “Police!” Hurrying to the place from whence the alarm emanated he found a German, ith his arms about a lamppost, bleeding profusely from two stab wounds on the head and @ pistol shot wound in one of his legs. Surgeon Robery was called, dressed the man’s wounds, which are serious, and ordered him to be sent to Bellevue Hospital, The siranger, when interrogated, positively retused to give his name or any particu-ars of the affair, further than that the parties who assaulted him Jumped over the Central Park walls and made their escape. | WALL STRRRT, Sunpay, August 21, 1570, SPECULATION and all movement tn the several markets here con- tinued the past week, as in the preeeding one, to varn mainly upon the progress of the European war. In some departments quite a stagnant condition prevailed, owing to the uncertainties of the situa- ton, rendered pecuilarly diflcult of appreciation becanse of the mtxed character of the reports re- ceived of army operations and the contradictory na- ture of the despatches, IN THE GOLD MARKET, however, there has been quite a fair degree of excite Ment, and operations there, mainly influenced by the German bankers, have been carried on on a parallel line to the course of dealings during the war in this country. From the first of the Prus- Slan successes the cause of North Germany has apparently become identified, in tts re- lation to the gold premium, with that of the North here, and every Prussian victory has been in- terpreted as a bear influence tn gold. In the fre- quentannouncement of these, which are the more readily believed, especially by the German bankers, than the contradictions of the same through French sources, although published side by side, there has been fromthe start an active selling movement in gold, under the influence of which the premium has steadily declined, closing last evening at 114% a 114%, as against 11734, the dgure at which it opened im the room last Monday. ‘This rapid falling of of the premium, very largely the result of sales on speculative account , as the in- creasing demand for cash gold during the last days of the week show, the effect of yesterday's opera- tlons being not yet seen, suggests some thought whether there has not been an over-confldent fee!- ing on the part of the bears. The theory of their op- erations involves A TRIPLE HYPOTHESIS, The first assumption is that tue telegraphic accounts of Prusslan victories are true; that the French army 1s shattered and de- moralized beyond hope of effective reorganization, and the chances of any considerable reverse over- taking the German troops now in France undesery- ing ol consideration, The second proposition upon. which the theory is founded ts that this successful movement tends to an early pacification, and the third that such an early peace would reduce the premium on gold. It is scarcely necessary to say that in every part of this hypothetical argument too much ts taken for granted. In the first place the very fact that the news of PRUSSIAN VICTORIES come only through Prussian or pro-Prusstan sources, and evidently aims at sensational effect (auch as the story of photographing Turcos on the fleld of battle, for instance), exposes it, at all events, to the sus- picton of being exaggerated, 1f not purposely or wholly untruthful. Again, while it is not proposed to review the reported military situation here, it may not be out of place As suggesting caution to those operators who follow in the wake of larger dealers without any exercise of their own judgment, that even supposing Mar- shal Bazaine to be apparently cut of from Paris, and the way of the Prussian army clear to that city, its capture 1s not so certain. The French generals have some reputation as strategists, and this bellef in the utter anuihtlation of their great army may be premature. Further, it 1s by no means certain that the tnvestment, or, in fact, even capture, of Paris would compel.tie French to make PEACE if their armies remained intact. The population of the country ts over thirty-cight millions, and tt driven to cesperation might certainly hold out, atthough the resources of the capital were lost to them as a means Our civil war has some such lessons, Lastly, suppose peace to be concluded to-morrow, 4s it so certain that the gold premium would decline? The struggle, short as its progress has been, bas already produced grave qisturbances tn finance and occasioned heavy losses and expenditure m both countries. We cannot expect to escape a share in the burdens which these must entail upon all trade. Before the war commenced gold was 112, and since that time we have exported over $20,000,000 com. Gold is now 114% and moving under the operation of exciting causes, impossible of clear and calm analysis, in which this seems to be disregarded. When MORE SOBER THOUGHT directs dealings this loss of specie is lkely to be more felt. The banks here hold only about the same amount of cgn reserve now that they did last year at this time, Gold was then at a premium of 132, It 1s trae the country 13 more — prosperons, with an inereasing cotton crop, and more acres of land yielding cereal wealth in greater abundance. But neither France nor Prussia will be the richer for their experience of the past few weeks, and it 1s not likely that they will ba better customers for us, while can either, and especially the former, from which we import so many articles of luxury, afford to sell to us cheaper. 1f, as has been often said, a war in Kurope, by creating a market for our producttons, would benetit us, and so reduce the price of gold, it 13 surely illogical to hold the converse of that situation us likely to bring about the same result. Tad the war not occurred, would gold now be dear at 115? Should it continue and extend the area of confict, as a neutral uation, we may hope to reap some benefit from THE INTERRUPTION OF IND STRIAL RSUUTS in the countries of the belligereats. With the speedy return, however, of ihe enemies now in the fleld to agriculture and mechanical labors we cannot hope to gather much profit. The interruption was too short. England thus far bas galued whatever in the way of trade was to be gained in supplying the wants of the contending nations, [t has so fur brought to ns nothing bul doubtful news and dis- tracting problems. What we want to make gold go down are orders—and tt is doubtfal if by a speedy re- turn to peace these will be much increased—f Europe. rom GOVERNMENTS have been duil through the week from the absence of much disposition to speculative operations, owing to the uncertainty of outside causes likely to influ. ence prices, but on the whole drm, STOCKS. The stock market was matnly Inactiye, the larger operators being still enjoying their vacations in tne country.

Agricultural Prospects-Effects of Destruction of the Forests—Disastrous Legislation The Forced Labor System—Austra- lian Steamship Subsidy—Docline of American Interests. HONOLULU, July 23, 1870, The long continued drought has been broken m upon by refreshing rains, and agricuiturtsts, graziers, and, | may say, all classes breathe the freer for it, Plantations and ranches on the leeward side of our islands have suffered severely, and the prospect before the rain was gloomy indeed, “Li ta an ill wind,” &c, So in this case, tne long continued drought has awakeued the government and many of our influential citizens to the nec ty of taking Steps to bar the farther destruction of our forests, and devise ways and meaus for revienishing with trees our barren lilis and mountain sides. Mr. A. Holstein, for many years custodian of the Royal Hawaiian Agricultural Societies’ Garden, and now residing upon one of the principal sugar estates, has addressed a memorial to the members of the Legis- ture, in which he uses the foliowing earnest language :— Perhaps my peculiar occupation anring the last fifteen years has made me more observant than othera; but, however you may judge of my under- standing, my capacity or incapacity of reasontin and observation aud iy present course of acuon, am fully and intensely convinced of the correctness of my views, The cry of the lonely satlor on the sinking wreck is perhaps unheeded on the wide waste of water, but not unheard aud unrecorded, My solitary warning inay also not be heeded, aud fall perhaps on derisive ears; but in the coming years, when my predictions are coming to pass, there will be at least one warning cry recorded on the pages of the past; and 1 must earnestly, with a sincerity and a conviction which fully to express I Want words, warn you, the Legislature, chiefs and eople, that in less than fifty years hence these lands will be ruined and be but barren wastes, un- less you prevent the total destruction of our forests and by some means retrieve the abuses aud errors of the past, The danger is not overstated. Plantations con- sume large quantities of wood, and L kuow of but two plantations that have made any effort w re- plant forest land. The prime cause of destruction, however, 1s to,be found in the herds of goats, horses, cattle and sheep which roam at large through the mountains ana valleys of the inner range. The belt of vegetation is receding from the seacoast year by year quite perceptbly, and, as a matter of course, the herds are driven back farther and farther tn order to find sustenance and destroy all undergrowth; and in time the large trees yield to the destroyers until, as Mr. Hoistein remarks, thousands of acres of forest laud, instead oi a sea of green leaves, present at this day oaly nakedness, blanched and lumbless trunks, ‘The legislative session 18 about drawing to a close after a most fruitless session. eflort made to blot from our statutes the odious Master and Ser- vanis’ law has been deteated by the clicanery of his Majesty’s Minister of Foreign Relatious, C. C. Harris, assisted by the Vice President of the Assembly and a few others, lesser lights of that body. A detailed account of the petty, mean and disreputable mea- sures by which the effort to establish a free labor system has becn overcome would be tiresome to your readers, so I forbear the iniliction. ‘ihe utter want of decency shown by the conspirators in the appointment of rewards for services rendered in fettering the laboring class disgusts even the friends of the forced labor system. The session has not been brought to a close before the public are aware of the onices and emoluments bestowed upon the creatures of Minister Harris. Such barefaced reward cannot but have a demoralizing effect upon the party which bestows it. Ihe planters have been singuiatly reti- cent since the so-called planters’ meetings held Jast fall, They have not forgotten the signat defeat they then snilered in the atiempt lo prove that a forced labor system Was right, because {lt Was essential to thelr individual welfare, ‘The long silence has been broken, however, by the appearance of a letter from & young and more ardent planter, Who endeavors to prove that the natives Of these Islands enjoy too much liberty, and that the peculiar disclpline and labor of a sugar plantation are best calculated to raise them to a higher standard of intelligence and = MSABEL, only child of George C. usefulness. A few more such letters would do more to create a prejudice agaiust the planting interest than the combined attack of every disciple of free Jabor here or abroad. The letter displays all the @frogance which marked the effusions of the old Ume slaveholder of your now reconstructed South. ‘The Assembly voted a subsidy of twenty-five thou- sand dollars a year for steam service between these islands, Australia and California, conditioned that this should be mmade a terminal port by the line or lines performing the, service, and that the subsidy sould recelve the Sanction of owo-thirds of the Privy Council, This, of course, shuts out Webb's line, as projected, and was intended as a sop for the Hail and Halladay line. This bill met with but little favor In the commu nity, and When the Appropriation bill came up on its last reading the tenor of the terms was so changed that a through line, which will discharge or receive freight here if offered, wil! be eatitied to ade through the J. Lyons, aided by his Exes 'y the Attorney General and otie: e: lines of steamers are becoming mor - popular, The satling packet which arrived the day beiore the last steamer brought the larger number of first cabin passengers tor this port, Freight for Sydney and Melbourue 18 handled so often and so roughly that a loss must accrue to shippers. Should Mr. Webb succeed tn obtaining the snbsidies it will be of the first importance that he select agents bere who will enlist the sympathies and goodwill of our island community. The agents of the present line are not popular excepting with the government. ‘The Fourth of July passed off very quietiy, more so than Lever remember {n past years, 80 much 80 that it was ® matter of remark.
