Sanaroaa, August 15, 1874. ‘is morning I watched Commodore Vanderbilt ashe walked down the balcony to join a whist party im the elegant private club room built by the | United States Hotel for its guests. Tue old rail- road king leans heavily on his cane, and walks as | if this was bis last summer at Saratoga. His weight goes heavily on one foot, the foot slides for- ward slowly, the cane feels te way abead and then the body moves heavily and slowly along. When the octogenarian sits down his silver head lean® Jerward, one band rests on bis cane and the other falls on tis knees. As he thus site a great crowd pass by with reverential look, | The other day alittle three-year-old baby tod- | died upto the venerabie Commodore as he sat Jeaning over, and smoothing her band cautiously over the old man’s silver hair, she said;— “Why, ou has dot funny hair.” Then, looking up into the Commodore's Jace, she inquired, “What makes It so white?” “Oh the irosts of many winters turned 1t white, my little baby,” replied tne Commodore. “Didn't it hurt our’ asked the little thing in childish amazement, It was the first me sbe had | ever noticed gray hair, Near the Commodore 1s bis oldest and favorite | along the lappel of my coat. I have been dimly conscious in my drowsiness, as I looked througb hal/ closed eyelids, that something was there of blurred shape, and seeming of gigantic size in couiparison with the real bulk of the insect; bat without the iavigoration of the breeze I should mot have minded it, Having revived me, the breeze seems determined that I shall remain awake; for it Keeps up & rustling among we branches of a sapling in front of | me and it brings to my charmed | ears the mellow music of the colored coachman’s | flute. Prompted now to look about me, I see away to the southeastern horizon a wide stretch of the ea, bearing upon its bosom numerous vessels ‘With listless sails. Ita only motion is in short, gleaming responses to the courting of the sun- Uught. There is an intense stillness about it and the ships upon its bosom that would astound those who can only conceive the sea as angry and tumultuous, There are many who, looking upon the sea when it 18 calm, with ships motionless upon its bosom, almost iMstinctively quoute Cole- midge’s line :— A painted ship upon @ painted ocean, and feel satisica that they have done a very cor- rect thing. | feel satusfled that such people neither appreciate the beauty of the “sleeping sea” nor the meaning of the poet. They use the quotation as i commending the prospect belore them for its Mkeness to sowe painting by Human hands; in other words, they compare truth with its merest sign. Coleriage was not so feeble in sun- fie as to do that, His reierence was to the conception of a painting done by | the Creator with the perfectness of His master hand. but I shall leave this subject. Itis too deep ior a summer letter, which ought to smack of the breege, carrying the strong sabne odor of the sea and the sweet perfumes of the land. I cannot adequately describe the ocean lymg Mowoniess unger the sun, and shall leave | you to imagine how it looks. My position 1s upon an eminence Of perhaps 200 feet. Looking to the southwest, on my right 1 see smal bills rolung over to an inlet from the Sound, Which breaks in upon the land at Point Judith, about seven miles south. This iniet is broken up by numervus small islands, which make it appear like a series of connecting lakes ora miniature arcoipelago. Beiore me, to the south, a Wood of low trees shuts out my View, ex- cept where the rocky shore trends in and the ‘ocean curves round to the southern horizon. Far wo my right is the ocean agai. To the northeast I see the white cottages of Newport, and bringing my eyes to the jand and dropping them somewhat | 1 view the gleaming white beach, from which the Jand rises and talis until it sinks at last at the foot of Tower till, whereon Iam seated. Nature has been very lavisi with water in this vicinity, asin | aimost every holiow Within sight body of it lies gleaming. She has been freakisb, also, in the placing Of salt water just where one would expect to find fresh, and vice versa, At the vase of Tower Hil is a jong laud-jocked bay which has a0 intri- cate iniet from the ocean; while just beyond the beach, over the little sand ridge tuat siopes down to it, is alarge pond of fresh water, where all pint the big frogy croak and tne ttle ones emit sounds ike the vibratory shapping Oo! @ loose guitar string, and where in the days cue lites doat with their golden hearts.opened to the sunshine. This morning | verily believed that I had lounda out who had piaced this pond av queerly beuind the beach. I was certain that nixies had their homes bencath its lily pods, and that, as 1 cawe aiong its margin aud saw a femaie luxuriously laving her feet in the pond, { had ioand one of them. But when [ had almost reached her, going noiselessiy, so as Dot to alfright ber, she acted with so much hu- manity 10 the treating the hardened cuticie of her Jeet that I stopped im wonder. My shadow roused | her to look around, and then J saw that the pixie | ‘was only an old Woman who had been gathering | lites aod was then sottening ber corns. ‘The preceding part of vis letter | wrote sitting, | suflused with dreamy sentiment, on Tower Hull, While | toougaot toe landscape before me was of most delicious aspect. But when | arose to go back to the seasive the sentiment pegan to vanisu. The undulations of the jand and the queer crink- ling of the smail bills, torming unexpected hollows almost concealed by the “unambitious unaer- wood,” still uad a charm which was, however, not very strong, for it couid not make me forget that the sun Was crisping my skin and that there was no shade. I noticed tue latter fact before 1 landed at Nafragansett Pier. As I approached it tie hotels stood in streng reltel, without even @ leaf to obscure their natural ap gularity, and the sand grains appeared to dan under ine glare and heat of the sun like a med: seval Witca on 4 hot griddie. But vals exposure 1s no bar to the happiness of those wuo are here. They have come w sail, bathe, gossip, and te young peopie, though some elderly ladies also Rave the coquettish ways of youtn, to flirt. It is not necessary to be under the trees to do any of these. Pernaps some firtations would ripen into matrimony li there were woods nereabout tor couples to wander ip—there are $0 many sweet, enucing arte, which, though innocent, cannot be practiced whue @ couple are seated ou the sand under even & wide-spreading um- breila, or in # shaded Cavity Oi tue rocks wnch bind the shore toward Point Judith, where other cooing couples are likely to stambie upon them at any moment. “Sut pshaw! we don't come w Nar- ragansett to Make marriages.

Certainly some people ‘will think there i8 more dissipation than recupera- tion in this way of ie, such persons are neces- sarily “old fogyish,” and thouga of an economical class will forget the harm tuat 1s done in cramped Valises Lo dress clothing,lior all the young men and maidens have brought their society uniiorms aud apparel; and if there Were no dancing these would | remain creased aud coudined, and in the case of the | young mep might pertaps be “eribbed’? | by some adventurons waiter in want of | new avpare: for bis professional Lop germ | By the way, there is such @ large party of nice young men bere-—~so jovial, 80 attractive in every Way, especially al night when their meliow voices ring ont upon the air, of later when they spead much me and oreatu in racing ater the elusive bootjack.

SARATOGA STYLES FOR 1874, Every year the ‘ashionable New York lady in Saratoga brings out some new sensation in dress— some queer habit er article of toilet, Two years ago it was the Grecian bend, with the shoulders — oumped forward, chest concave, dres? skirts like balloons, and wrists dangling like rigtt augies in iront, as if handcuffed by a policeman. Last year backs flew up straight, shoulders were erect and chests became expanded and hoop skirta were thrown vut of the back chamber windows, ‘This year I have been straining my eyes to see ‘what the new Jeminine sensation wis to be. Up to this time the only wild movenients on the part of the ladies are in regard to toilet articles. Three new modes are distinguished above ail the rest. They are:— First—Enveloping the hat, head or neck in 3 long streaming breadth of white tulle, go that in- stead of mourning in sackcloth and ashes the Sar- atoga girl rejoices in black cloth and sashes, distance the Saratoga belle jooks like a marole statue with a black dress—the heaa veiled so 4s to keep of the flies. Second—The manta for wearing the dress of one color and the sleeves of an opposite color, some carrying it 80 far as to wear black dresses with white lace sleeves. In such instances when the ing Jady stands against a white wall the or and arms disappear and she iooks like the Torso of Milo tn the gallery of the ‘lu:ieries. Third— Panama Paris hats with wide brims, cocked up on four sidea, and cov- ered with plumes, making the head look like the head of an English beadie in (uli dress. A charm- ing married iy of “The tes’? has one which arrived from Paris yesterday. The plumes are White ostrich featners, nat Panama. Hair is worn in every seahinn parted in the mid- dle and on one side, banged, d, scolloped, shirred, poached and scrambied. MORNING CONCERTS. One of the features of Saratoga this year is the morning concert on the balcony of “The States.” This concert draws ail Saratoga. The other hotels are deserted from half-past ten to twelve, while “Che States” parlors and balconies are happy with wit and gay with beauty. On this occasion the hotel 1s fli Suits. Some of the aristocratic guests of the hotel have been Making complaints about so many villagers and s0 many “vulgar people’ coming to their con- certs from other hoteis. Ladies and gentiemen whose ancestors were shoemakers and who keep houses in New York are the loudest in condemning the poor Villagers, Yesterday Mr. Ge Smith, who bas been making some complaint, brought up some iadies irom te Clarendon to attend tue concert. “Now you must expect to meet some villagers, but don't be airaid, you won’t have to speak to them,” said Mr, de Smith as they walked out on | the balcouy. “Yea, there they are,” whispered Miss Knickerbocker, looking contemptuously down at a lady and two daugniers, “what common look- ing people they are too! Dear me! what are taese creatures permitted to come im here and mix with the gaests for?’ “8—b—because, Miss Kmckerbocker—aw, ab! do you mean those three jadies sitting right over there?” pointing them out to be sure. “Yes, those common looking things by the mid- die window, Mr. de Smith.” “Yes, ahem | t—t—that's my w—w—wlle and two et tay stammered the suffering Mr. de The elevator boy snother escort home.

To a chance visitor, one not in the habit of com- ing often to Bedford Springs, it is a great mystery how five taousand people can gather here year after year during the summer months and so little be said abont it, ‘The newspapers tell us daily of Saratoga, Cape May, Long Branch, tue White Sulphur, Lake George, Atiautic City and a hundred other piaces of recreation that I might mention, bat rarely ever is old Bedford spoken of aniess one of the army of itinerant Henao his traveis for information.

In its imuiediate | neighborhood, however, is @ spring of mucral | water Jer | THE MEDICINAL QUALITIRS | of which is claimed great merit; and I think the | claims @ just one, Jadging srom the numbers who | yearly gather here to secure its benefits and the quantity barrelied and sent over the country. A cooper shop, empleying three men the year round, | 1s Kept busy at this wor’. Unlike the Saratoga. | Gettysburg, Deep Rock, Bethesda and numerous | other spring establishments, the water is not bot- | Med for the market, that work being left to the | aealer todo in his own way. Some o! the aealers ip these mineral waters who are now here | tell me that this rerasal of the proprietors to bottle the water of the springs ts @ great drawback to its more extensive popularity and sale, but all their representations to this effect seem to Make 0 tMpression on tue Owners, You must come here and drink oO: the spring free of | ebarge, or purchase it oy the barrel or key, or else | do withoutit. This spring, the water of which 18 | Said Lo be wholly different irom all other mmeral | springs in the country, is on & tract of land beiong- | mg to @ family named Anderson, one of we | weaithiest in this section of the State. ‘The bead | of the Jamily—now dead—was one John Anderson, | an early settier of this piace, aScotcti-lrisnman, a8 Were most of the early settlers of the southern ter of counties of Pennsylvania, The Andersons | OWned several hundred acres of land, ana when, early in the present century, the medicinal quah- tles of the spilng Water Were discovered, taey con- ceived the idea of Making Its netghoorhood a re- | sort sor invalids. Accordingly a@ sinail hotel, with | @ capacity lor about one hundred people, was built jor their accommodation, and now tris has grown to an immense hotel, known as the | “Springs,” consisung Of a series of six buildings, capable of accommodating at least 700 persons. Tuese buildings are situated tn a most beautul | spot of the country. About two miles irom } the town proper of Bediord the road | or turopike suddenly descends, and you | plunge at once into a shady and | Bequestered valley, refresaed by a Clear, cool | stream, and bounded by towering and forest cov- ered hulls, ‘fhe stream passes under several ro- mantic looking bridges, thea expauds tuto a small lake, having in its centre an island of pretty trees and bushes, and fually fows on to funtingdon, | where it unites its water with those of the Juniata, | whose picturesqueness and romantic graudeur | nave been carried into song by the poets and made | worid wide in nistory. The main building of tue hotel is sinuated at the base of one of the 1mmense | Dilis, and tue distance irom it to the opposite | mountamm, at whose base is the famous spring, 13 | about 200 yards, THE GROUNDS | are spactous and beautifully laid oat, but then nature has done so much for the place that there has been little resort to art.

In the et cetera I must leave out the bar room, as all the counties between Harrisburg and Pitts- burg are ruled under the local option law, which seeiis to be Carried out With the utmost strictoess. | Sou any HeRaLp reader contemplates a visit to | Bediord Springe, or is used to having his toddy at | stated hours ol the day, be must bring it with him | or be contented to go without.

The first is deflant in her provincialism; the second is in a Uttle doubt of herself, as her primness and reti- cence denote; the third is assured of her cosmo- politanism, and convinced she was born to con- quer, The Hub depends on ber cuiture and her tongue; the Quaker City on her lineage and propriety ; Manhattan on her individuality and on ber capacity to Win Whosoever she thinks worth ber attention. A Putin-Bay correspondent of the Cincinnati Times thus discriminates on waltzing:—A Ken- vucky girl is a natural waltzer, and she does it with a charming chic and abandon, An Ohio girl's waltzing 18 easy, graceful and melodious, Ifshe happens to come from Cincinnati and across vhe Rhine she swings dreamily round and round in the endless Dutch waltz.” If she comes from Chicago she throws her hair back, jumps up and cracks her heels together and carries off her as- tonished partner as though a@ simoom had struck nim, and knocss over all intervening obstacles in | her mad career around the room. If she is from Indiana sie creeps closely and timidly up to her partner, as though she would like to creep imto his vest pocket, and melts away with ecstacy as the witching strains of the ‘‘Biue Danube” sweep through the hal. If she ig from Missouri she crooks her body in ‘the middie like @ door binge, takes her partner by the shoulders and makes bim miserable in trying to hop arcuud her without treading on her No.9 shoes, Ifshe comes irom Michigan she astonishes her partner by now and then working in a touch of the double shufle, or a bit of pigeon wing with the waltz step; andif she comes from Arkansas she throws both arms around his neck, rolis up her eyes as she floats away and is heard to murmur, “Ob, hug me, Jobn!” SING SING CAMP MEETING. Devotional Evercises Commenced on the Old Ground—Good Work of the Pray- | ing Band—Nine Conversions in One Evening—Colored Worshippers at a Discount. A more auspicious day could scarcely have dawned upon the forty-second annual gathering of the New York Camp Meeting Association on the old ground at Sing Sing than yesterday proved it- sell, In the time-Nonored grove through which sounds of heartfelt prayer and praise again re- echoed, the mnellowed rays of an autumnal son stealing through the heavy foliage which crowns the tall oak and hickory trees at an altitude of perhaps 150 feet, produced a truly delighttul and tranquilizing effect. The serenity Of the scene was reflected in the faces of the un- ostentatious men and women who have assembled there to unite their supplications to the throne of grace. Notwithstanding the desirable weather, however, the number of visitors was not large, although Mr, McDermut, one of the committee in charge, informed the HERALD representative during @ conversation that he considered it a fair Tepresentation. Nearly all of the tents are occu- Pied chiefly by families, while the farmhouses in the vicinity have each their quota of boarders, | some o/ them accommodating as many as eighty persons. A FORCE OF POLICE AND DETECTIVES from New York, in charge of Sergeunt Lefferts, are already on the groubd for the purpose of restrain- jog any unroly conauct in or around the camp. Last year the camp meeting committee ventured to lease one of their tents to some coloured peopie, but subsequent developments showed that they had made a mistake. During the meeting it ap- | rs the sable worshippers became so re- | ously enthusiastic that their boisterous and unseemly demonstrations not only dis- turbed the exercises at the speaker's stand but atso diverted the attention of crowds who might otherwise have been drinking in ‘the sincere MUK of the word.” With an eye, doubt- less, to the prospective benefits of the Civil Rights | bill, @ coal black colored man made application | yesterday for a tent; but, profiting by the expe- Fience of their predecessors, the committee gave | him very little encouragement. it was under- | stood that the “man and brother” would have to | seek a tent in some other grove, where bia DEVOTIONAL DEMONSTRATIONS would be less likely to operate harmfully on the cause of true religion. While waiting for the camp meeting proper to begin those families who have been domiciled on the grouud for some days past have notsorgotten the object for which they assembied. During the whole of Sunday a prayer meeting was held, ‘under the supervision of Sammy Halstead and his raying band, the result being nine acknowledged conversions in the evening. An earnest meeting, ‘Which lasted several hours, was a!so well attended ip the Bedtord street cuurcn praying teut on Mon- day, under the direction of Rev. stephen Db, Brown, D. D., presiding elder. Yesterday morning the camp meeting exercises were commenced in the last named tent by Rev. Mr. Evans, pastor of the Perry street (New York) chureb. fhe spacious canvas-covered enclosure ‘was well filled by an attentive audience, the larg- est portion of Which were females. Here the morning was spent in alternate praying, singing and the relating of their individual experience by several of those present. One decrepit matron, who had long passed the allotted period of threescore and ten, and whose feeble irame was | already stamping on THE BRINK OF THE GRAVE, tottered to her fect, and wile tears oi joy streamed down her withered cheeks said:— “in 1806 I was converted, ihauk God, and joined | the Methodist Ohurci, For a namoer ol years bj travelled with my husband, who was a Methodist preacher. lt was Theodore Clark—some of you may have known him. (Voices—‘We did,’ ‘we | aid,’ ‘thank God.’) I suffered with bim in adver- | sity and rejoiced with him in our prosperity. Yes, and J shail rejoice with bim above. I am now very old, and cannot recognize Wwany of my Christian friends around me; my natural eyes tali me, but with my spiritual eyes Jcan sce clearly Ihave worked hard since the death of my companion, and have oiten sound myseif without a monthiul of bread jor my children; bat {| was supplied wit heaveniy manna; | would go on my Knees and He always sent some Kind friend wo relieve my wants. My poor eyes tai me, but my heavenly Vision is bright. Isnali see you ali up there, This poor o}d frame is tottering, and it Will not be loug vefore you will hear it said— « «sister Clarke is gone,’ “Oh! remember me tn your prayers, that I may hoid out faitninily to the end.’’ At this stage the aged speaker sank exhausted on @ seat, and the whole audience sang tne lines :— ‘Then in a nobler, eweeter song Wil sing Lhy power to save, | Wohea this poor lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave, Another woman in the audience sata :—“Twenty- five years ago Gou set me at periect uberty on this camp ground. This is the place on which my father aud grandiather have prayed and iavored for te salvation of souls. They are goue to reap their reward, and J am almost alone; but not alone, for Jesus ig With me. I am here to be everything or nothing for Christ’s sake.’ At nalf-past swo in the afternoon the pubilo ser- vices commenced at the speaker's staud, wh Rev. Mr. Moorhouse, of the Thirty-fourth street mission, preached to a large ana interested audit- ory, many of whom had arrived on the ground since morning. Mr. Moorhouse was followed by other clergymen from New York and eisewnere dni the remainder of the afternoon and even- | Any has been the custom heretofore, religious services will cease at ten o’clock P.

Lor, to it, The foreman, “Mike,” arrived about five | o'clock at his employer’s stables and found the | doors open. The lock had been wrenched off and | scouple of ordinary coid chisels were discovered— | but nothing more—teit benind by the miscreants. | Upon entering the staple several of the horses | were found maimed and yng, from stabs and | | writhing in the Greatest agony. That the butchery | was the work of malice against Mr. Dwyer was } soon apparent, for a single partition divided the horses of another person—the owner of the prop- erty—and no effort was made to injure them. ‘The proprictor—who resides at the corner of First avenue und Forty-ninth street—was soon apprise d of the misfortune, but he only arrived to discover six of his most valuable beasts had died from the effects of the wounds, and the three remaining ones were gashed in a most shocking munner ; when the HeraLp reporter saw them they were evidently sinking trom loss of blood, and will also probabny die. All the wounds seemed to be made with the des- perate purpose of killing the animals, They were carved Tn the flanks so that the tntestines pro- srg and they must necessarily die from loss of 100d. 80ME OP THEM WERE STABBED asif they had been human deings engaged in a Corsican duello, where quarter was neither asked hor given, Such a diabolical slaughter of the in- | novents has perhaps never been recorded in New York city, and it is weil for the cowardly scoundrel or scoundrels who committed the act that we do not ive under the lynch laws of the irontier. Dr. Burden, a veterinary surgeon, was called in to attend the surviving wounded animais, out, cu- riously enough, be did not advocate the sewing up ol the wounds, which, to unprofessional eyes, | looked ghastly. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, it 1s understwod, have offered |a reward for the arrest of the perpetra- | tors of this last outrage, but at the latest | accounts bo arrests were made, If anything should arouse the oficers of this humane | society to superhuman exertions in behalf of the | dumb anunais, this certainly is a case where their mevtle may properly be shown, Mr, Bergh is wide | awake enonga when horses have raw bucks or | galled shoulders to assert his power. Here, how- | ever, 18 @ case for him which wiil gain for iis | society the sympathy of all hamanity if he can only bring the miscreants to justice who have | thas mutilated and killed the poor friends of man out of sheer spite. Mr. Dwyer, upon being ques- | toned, sald he did not know that he had an enemy ; | he had no idea who could have done the deed; he | had- no insurance on his stock anywhere, and was completely in the dark as to the cause of this assagit upon his property, The stable is in @ lopely location near the East River, with Black- | well’s Island in sight—is just below a stone yard and in the neighborhood of the great malt houses. The police could not have been near his stable door between the hours of one and five o’ciock, or they could have discoverea the condition of | things. At all events, this occurrence calls for the most determined action on the part of the Jorce, and the people will hold them responsible | for lack of vigilance or a faliure to pring to justice the malefactors. A CBANGE AT SING BING, lage Postmaster Appointed in His Stead. As already foreshadowed in the HERALD, the Management of Sing Sing Prison has undergone | another change. To the initiated, as well as to those | living tn the vicinity of the institution named, it | has been well known that for months past Warden | Hubbell had lost caste in the estimation of the State Prison Inspectors, whose action in removing hin was aelayed only on account of a lack of unanimity on the question of his successor. The inspectors have at length, how- ever, agreed, and on Monday evening imiormed Mr. Hubbell that bis functions as Warden would cease September 1, ana also notified James Wil- liamson, of ot Sing, that he had been appointed | Agent and Warden of the Prison. Mr. Wilhamson has held the office of Postmaster in that Village since the trst election of President Grant, and tor Many years has been regarded as one of the moss influential repudlicans in that section of Westchester county. In addition to having had seven or eight years experience in various ca- | pacities at the prison, he has creditably fillea the | position of Assistant United States Assessor ol his ; district and also that of Commissioner of Excise for the county. The appointment, which, how. | ever, he has not yet accepted, gives universal sat- | istaction in the neighborbood of Sing Sing. A DASTABDLY OUTRAGE, Frederick Senfelder, who resides at No. 58 Leroy streot, left nis home on Monday about two o'clock P. M., for the purpose of collecting $133 from Mr. Gunther, @ master builder, who resides in Four- teenth street, and has not been seen by his family since. He called at several places Monday aiter- noon and paid some small sums and indulged in a number of drinks. Where he passed the hight is not known, but at an early hour yesterday morning, as he was passing alopg jlizabeth street, he was set upon vy @ gang of ruffians, who had been, doubtless, lying in wait jor him, knocked down and dragged into a hall- way and there roobed of ali the money he had on his person. AS soon as they accomplished the robbery the hignwaymen ied, and when Senielder Tegained nis jeet he called lustily for @ policeman. An ofticer of the Fourteenta precinct, hearing the | cry, hastened to the spot and gave chase after man he observed running at some distance off, | ‘The man was finaliy arrested and identilied by ; Sentelder a8 one of the gang. hie gave the name of James Larry. On gouge to the residence of young Senfelder, who is only Uwenty-tnree years Old, it was discovered that nis parents, who were in a state of great excitement with the money, had not yet iearned of the rov- bery. When informed of the facts above stated, the old lady, the mother ei the young man, who | M it was stated had remained at the window watch- ing ior her son ail the night bejore, lainted awar, | and the fatier and the rest of the family became almost frenzied with griel.
