GOD'S FRESH AIR. —_—_——---——— Where Gotham’s Sweltering Thousands Took their Sunday Out. BY SEA AND LAND. The People in Central and Pros- pect Parks. ln Jersey and Westchester—At Long Branch and Rockaway. The extremoly bot weather of yesterday decided tens of thousands of our citizens, who would not otherwise have made up the'r minds so promptly, to seck {resh air wherever it could be found, The gen- eral impulse was to get out of doors, but as that is only the beginning it was necessary to choose turther between the many inviting spots by sea and laud Where the desired cool breeze and rest and, If neces- Bary, reireshisent were obtaimable, Hence it came that the people spread out in all directions—some to Central Park, somo to Jersey, some to Prospect Park, some to Westchester, some to Long Branch, some to Rockaway, and as it was the first general Sunday's Outing of the season it will be interesting to follow the pilgrims of nature in their journeys after the beautiiul, the picturesque and the vomfortable, AN CENTRAL PARK, Our Central Park never looked more beautifal or inviting then it dia yesterday. ‘‘For Jo, the winter is past, tho rain is over and gone; the flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come and the voice of the turtle is heard in the land.” We Dave again opened the most charming chapter of the Year, that which bas violets and Muy diowers as its Inscriptions and vignettes. Iniant blossoms hang upon the trees and roso leaves fill the urus, As the poct hath it, this is the month whose robe folds are valleys, whose breast bouquet ts gardens and whose blush is a vernal evening, It is chictly the poor, bowever, who, escaping from the cages in which they have been imprisoned for a week, most ei joy God’s holiday on the broad walks and among the Hower-iringed rambles of our beautiful Park, And it wasa gladsome sight yesterday to see so many Wou- sands of them—the patertamilias, with a troop of household angels at his heels; the mother, with tie infant 19 her arms, and the toilers in the hot work- shops-—all taking solid rest and comtort, It was a wise provision of our City athers, under which, years ago, Was set apart and beuutifled a spot for sucha purpose, and though it may bave been a costly im- provement, no one will now deny that ithas become one of the most important factors in the sum of me- tropolitan health and pleasure. On a hot day like yesterday the great bulk of the throng does not bogin to gather until, say, four o’clock, when the sun has partially lost his warmth and.the evoning shades begin to deepen, but altor that hour a similar spectacle cannot be witnessed anywhere cise in America, it is then that one sces our working classes to tho greatest advantage—the shop gril in hor best attire, the mechanic in his good clothes, mein Herr and bis frau, and, in a word, the people of all the nae tlonalities that constitute our cosmopolitan poplila- tion, Judging from phyriognomy, it a noteworthy item that a majority of Sunday visitors to the Park appear to be Germai lh one wanted oo verify the fact it would only be necessary to mark the contrast between the people who patronize the dairy and those who drink beer, And the great crowd en- joys its Sunday pleasure superiatively, It passes in review before Shakespeare, Scoit, Humboldt, Morse: Webster, Burns, Halleck, and the sturdy soldier of the Seventh, The children chamber on the rocks, mingle with the flowers and sport.on the Jawns, The-swings, ‘the goat carriages and ponies, the boats on the lake, the curtosities alive and dead in the vine covered Museum, these aud a score of other attractions at once tempt and entertain, Of vehicles there aro also thousands en route to and from the boulevards beyond the Park, To the stranger as weil as the resident the picture must be always suggestive, for it-is eloquent with that epirit of municipal charity which has provided so vast u breathing spot for rich and poor alike, and alded nature in making it beautiful. And the thought never can ba moro unpressive than ona Summer Sunday, when from overflowing tenement houses, aud the stench and filth of crowded apartments, pour forth the processions of debilitated young and old to Inhale the fresh air and feast the senses on the treasury of folinge gud flower which God has so luxuriously filed. Where, in the language of the poet Massey-— Ailabis loaves terill gud sparkie wald us wise Valuptuonsly ripening in the sun: ‘he meadows swell their bo-oms prompt with life, ‘the buttercups sproad tiny laps to take ‘Dise warm gold showering down from heaven. ‘the birds, low crooning o'er their sweet spriag tunes, Sriil touch them with n riper luxury. ‘The binckbied with the wing of joy is mellow, And in his song keeps laughing; he's so joily To think how summer pulps the fruit for him, It ts estimated that 200,000 people were present, and there 18 no better tribute to the orderly character of the crowd than that nota single urrest was made by the police. ri wi PROSPECT PARK, BROOKLYX, The warm weaher bad tue-olicct of inducing thous- ands of people to find their way to Brooklyn's best lung—Prospect Park. Indeed, it may be sufely stated that from this date the seasou of 1877 has voen fairly opened there. A delightfai breeze swept across the burvor, aud caused the grass and toliage to wave, as though tn gratetul acknowledgment of its buliny caress, The roudways were tined with vehicles ot every de- scription, and the water carts were Kept in constant operation to lay the dust. The lawn, between the Fiatbusn avenue plaza aud Cottage Hill, was crowded ‘with men, women and children during the entire after- Boon, while seats the shady novks were at a pre- mium. Tho only real drawback to tue pleasures of the people, who have expended upward of eight willion dollars on the park, was the constant rade warning of the blue coated police, to ‘keep of! the grass,”’ at cer- tain poms of progress, ‘here is room for tho re- moval of several of these signs, which should be taken down at once, and the melosed sections of the park thrown open to the enjoyinent of the visitors. On the lake, Which presents an area o! filty-two neres ot water, Admiral O’Brien, of the rowboat flotilla, haa his little fleet constantly engaged. ‘Iho shelter house id the dairy were well patronized, and the park “carryalla’’ reaped a harvest of tures, ‘THE LAGER MECCA OF WESTCHESTER, To the shrine of Gambrinus, in Westchester county, thourands wended their various ways Some by tand und some by water sought the syivan shades, where, during the great excise campaizn of 1869, were ini- tiated those Sunday sorvices to the thirsty god, which are still religiously observed. The Second und Third avenue cars brought bunareds of German tamiies to the southern bank of the Harlem River, beyond which lies @ thousand fanes dedicuted to the beer divinity, All day long inere filed across the narrow bridge at Harlem an incessant line ot thirsty mortals, who, arriving at the Weatehester bank, scattereu here and there each to juvorite garden and brauerei, Lest an unjust im- ‘ession of the influence of German tastes upon American manners be conveyed, it 18 but fair io atate that all the olgrims were not Germav.

Consecration of the Archbishop of Halifax, A SKETCH OF THE NEW PRELATE. List of Clergy Present and Order of Procession. THE IMPOSING CEREMONIES. {BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD. Hauiwax, May 20, 1877. This morning atten o’clock St Mary’s Cathedral, in this city, presented a brilliant spectacie, tor there Was gathered in its spacious sanctuary and roomy uisles a throng of prelates and priests and a mass of of interested and sympathetic people to take part lu or be witnesses of the consecration of Dr. Hannan as Archbisbop of Halifax. Nearly a year ago the whole Catholic world was shocked to learn that Archbishop Counclly, a man em- inent im many ways, bad suddenly been cut off in his career by an atlack of brain fever. The eager, impet- uous, almost fleree, prelate, whose life had been so tull of action, was lying, one quiet August bight, as still as sione, and amoug the throoging people who had been wont to regard bim with reverential awe iu nis life- time there wus much the same solemn icoling as ant. mated the bosom of Massillon whev, in the presence of assembled France and over the body of a departed inowarch he wept out aloud, ‘Only God is great,” To-day the scene is changed. A year of mourning |s mere tban most of us give to our bost and dearest, and the Catholic Church, whose work }s trom the rising of the sun to the going down thereof, cannot afford to mourn forever or leave her sheep without shepherds aod her bierarcha without a bead. For some months there was doubt a4 to who would be the now Archoisbop, Une bame Was publicly mentioned, sevoral names were privately whispered, bat it was known that a hist of | candidates bad goue to Rome, and that at the head of ‘hat list stood the name of Ur. Michuel Hucnan, When at last the bews cume that he was appointed there waa & genoral feeling of relio! and gratification. A stranger prelate would have been coldly received. This com- munity had all been go accustomed to Jook upon Dr, Hannan as the wisest guide, the most active admints- trator, the most acute mind, that tv have him as Areh+ bishop seemed eminentiy fitting and proper, TLE XBW AKCHBISHOP, ‘Tho new Archbishop, Dr. Hanvan, is a man about sixty-three or sixty-four, whu !oéks not more than fifty-eight He 1s an Irishman, and eczxrries bis na- tionality not only in his name, bat on his tongue, For thirty years and more he has lavored as a priest in thiscity, and during that period he hus seen a mere mission become @ Vishopric and then an arrcbishop- ne, He bas seentwo or three priests of Halifax be- come ten, audall ovor tho Province he has seen tho little churcues grow into large obes, and with them a corresponding increase of the societies within tho Church wuich contribute go greatly to its success, and which in thomselves evidence its prosperity.

Those simple souls. cannot see why “the South” is Jess dangerous now than it was daring the Presidential campaign, wheo evory republican stamp speaker aseured them solemmty that the Union was nevor in greater poril, In the Northwest the farmers ava country people generally believed what Blaine and Bristow, Ingersoll and Morton and the army of orators sent out by Secretary Chundler told them about the South; they took ® all for gospe! truth, and votea for Hayes to save the Union and keep down the rebels; in fact they were quite ready for a Dew war rather than not putin Mr, Hayos, and now they seo their Prosident acting as though the South wax an integral and harmless part of the Union, and they do not understand it.

THE DEMOCRATIC PakTy. So fur as the democratic pariy appears here it alve is splitting up i two camps. There are a few prominent democrats who are determined t¢ oppose the President im overy way; they say be is a “traud,” and can 40 nothing good; it is aduty to mako bim unhappy, to place ovatacles in his way, to make him feel that he has no right in the White House, and their policy is to regard all he does with suspicion; tonttempt extrome legis- on of different kinds, ana, in short, to be irrecon- cilaples, But a much lurger proportion of the demos oratic leaders are of a different mind. They say that they wiil support the President cordially in alt good measures; that party spirit shall not lead or drive them into any blundering or unpatriotic course; that they will hold iriendly relations with bim, bat thas they will usx no favors of bim, aud will at Nece tious strive to vote down every republican candidate who did not protest against the frauds and wrongs of tho election and the olectoral count, That ts ta say, these democrats make a distinction between the President and the republican party leaders. Mr. Hayes, they say, was evidently the victim ct corrapt and unpatriotic men; they committed the most abominable frauds in ois nawe and to force him imio the White Houso, Mr. Hayes, being there, for- } tunately does right; It 1s our dnty tothe country ana Withdrawau—Dbut they wero not confirmed etther, the | Senators privately devounging the President's sugges- | to ourselves to sopport him in all right measures, But we ure bound to punish the wicked and corrupt mou who pat bim in; wherever they stick up their beads we shail call on the people to help as vote them down, They do not deserve to be im public life, and it is our daty to punish them. That is the platform of the more sensible and the most numerous democratio faction. It has at least 4 method in it. THE PRESIDENTS CHANCES. looking the whole fleld over it 1s plain that the President will get abundant support for any polley which is right. What ho muy lack among the repub- Means be will get from the democratic side, He moves slowly, aud is not likely to attempt very mucb at a time; he bas uo privaie axes to gring, and will not feel insulted or embarrassed if tho Senate should refuse to confirm some of his nomi+ nations, He isnot scheming for another term, and bas uever contracted tho hamt of rewarding either personal or political favorites, and tho opposition re- publoans will fod him very much lke a greased pig, hard to hold on to. He probably knows that whatever he does with the offices will make a how! among the politicians. For instance, there has been a very Urgent pressure here that the administration shall get ‘on more rapidly with the reform of the New York Cus. tom House, This pressare comes, however, from tho antl-Cookliog avd anti-Morgan New York politicians, and what they want is to have the Conkiipg and Mor- | gan men reformed out and their own men rejormed in, Meantime, some of Mr. Conkiing’s adherents im central New York are making am outcry because one of them, the Elmira postmaster, has been turned out to make room for the protégé of the reigning Congressman; and so the confusion goer on, and a good many people have found out that the President dou’t care, If be gets competent men in office he believes he has done his duty to the count-s, and he does not appear to think that he owes any duty to the politicians, He is not unwilling to oblige them i tt comes tn bis way; he ts natoraily an amiable map, and ho ts too eld a party politicn pot to know what patrouage meat bat Congreasmen and others’ will find that if they recommend bad men they qill be ex- Posed withoot mercy, and thas the President means to take the whole country into his confidence so far aa his dealings with Congress relating to offices are con+ cerned. PROSPECTS POR A XRW PARTY, That parties should immediately break up if too much to expec, ‘here will be @ good deal of mangauvring, and in the North and Northwest the republicans aro certainly going to pleces mach faster than their opponents, while in the South the democrats, having all the offices in their hands, are lable to tall to pieros almost at ouce, When the President's policy broke do: the carpet-baggors It at the sume time intiteteda fatal blow on the democratic organization in those States. 1 was struck with the remark of a shrewd politician of tho so-called **independent” class here the other day on this subject of the breaking down of parties: — “I see,” said be, “that the repubtican party i gope Biawo is perfectly right; (t # rained, aod | um glad of it, Lt ought to be ruined rst, for it bas been for some Uume the most dangerous of parties to the country.
