: ithe astonished visitor
of Central Park.
Besides the intricacies of the deviating roads and pathways, numerous lakes environ- led by deep perpendicular banks and jutting 'yocks, and expansive reservoirs walled around \for miles by massive stonework surmounted ‘by strong iron railings, frequently interrupt the explorer in hisserpentine rambles. There ‘are innumerable “narrow” ways®in this |charming paradise, but no “straight” ones. | Park laborers ana men of every known me- ‘chanical trade; carters with their teams; iscavengers and sweeps with spades and ‘brooms; florists and masons with their dib- ‘bles and trowels; arboriculturists with prun- ‘ing-hooks; brickla; ers, mowers and reapers; | menagerie-keepers and other warders of every
; i
‘2 ‘form and species of animals, birds, fishes and “ »monsters and all other living things to be
‘found in every climate under the sun, meet everywhere. ‘The wages of all this army of workers, decoraters | til custodians amount to thousands of dollars ‘monthly. Untold millions have been expend- jed already on this paradisaical ‘‘country in ‘the middie of a city.” Untold millions in the ‘future will be spent on it. Some portions of ithe work of improvement is, seemingly, only commencing.
To imbibe a merely general idea of the principal menagerie with its 13 huge elephants, the various aviaries enclosing bhundreus upon hundreds of the world’s birds of every feather and form; the cow-pens, the deerparks, sheep- pastures, goatpens, dromedary and camel- folds, monkey cagesand the cages of more ferocieus anitnals, such as the ditterent species of lions and lionesses, leopards, jauguars, wild cats, bears, wolves, dogs, prairie dogs, guinea pigs, foxes, hedghogs, marmots, kau- garoos, and hundreds of other to me uname- able, beasts and birds from the hipopotamus of the Nile to the seals and sea-lions of the Pacific, and from the chimpanzee, so human- like, from Africa to the nondescript denizens of the Himalayas, to those of the Alps and the Rockies—-to catch, 1 say, but a very gen- eral idea of all these almost endless forms of living existences would require, at least, a few busy and attentive weeks.
The same remarks will apply to the mu- seums of art and natural history,and specially to the Eden Musee, and other kindred reposi- tories of specimens of the works and designs of ert and the inimitable handiwork, and freaks of nature.
The intelligent reader who has already seen and serutinized these carefully stocked reposi- tories, will readily realize how weak and beg- garly is the foregoing pen picture, compared with the deep and vivid impress which a per- sonal inspection of them communicates. ‘They must all be seen with the living bodily eye, and not only seen but also studied, in order to be adequately appreciated. What is here ‘advanced is meant for juvenile eyes—for those who in time may see and investigate for them- selves. And the more a youth learns of such things the more able will he be to intelligent- ly investigate and prize them. ;
This being the first of a short series of let- ters from the American ‘‘Mother of -Cities,” as New Yorkers fondly call it, I shall add but a paragraph or two more; for I am aware that the hundred-eyed Examiner detests lengthy prosy letters.
in comparing Boston with New York, or the latter with the former, I find they greatly differ in many features. Most of the public and some of the private edifices of New York are larger and more massive in architecture than most of those of the same kind in Boston, such as St. Michael's Cathedral, the Cooper Institute, the Equitable Building,the General Court aiid some others. :
To make a single tour up all the stairways and through all the passageways, corridors, apartments, closets and other recesses of the ten-storied Equitable Building, would Ee to make & Continuous jo of abut ten Bays
lish miles to perform which would seem to require the perseecmn. perseverance = andl patience of a Livingstone or a Humbolt.
As to the aesthetic element in everything, Boston triumphantly takes the cake from New York. Almost every large work of every kind in the latter city wears a heavy and somewhat clumsy appearance, but at the same time sub- stantial and permanent ; and as for the mod- ern improvements and conveniences they im- measurably surpass those of the Boston build- ing, except those being now built.
All the doors of a New York modern resi- dence can be opened hy electricity. From the outside main entrance an alarm can be rung in any or all of the apartments in the house, and the inmate of any room in the residence, however high upin the several stories, has only to press a small button by the thumb or tinger on hearing the alarm from below, and that littie button instantly opens the door and admits the callar. If the inmate wish not to admit the caller without first ascertaining who he is, that he can effect by his telephrne and vice versa, .
A country-like homeliness pervades the common walks of life in the city of New York which is never known in the‘'Hub.’ A stranger passing through the avenues and streets of the city would fancy from the easy, sociable and informal demeanor and dress of the swarm of mothers, fathers and children he enceunt- ers, especially in the evenings, that pride or haughtiness never found its way to this place, or lost it after starting out.

Canasian Affairs.
The finest ship ever built in Nova Scotia was launchea at Canning on Thursday. She measures 2065.32.
Advices received by the Department of Agriculture indicate that there will be a big crop throughout the Dominion.
It is understood that Sir John Macdon- ald will not visit Banff Springs this summer after all. His summer residence at River du Loup has been leased for the season.
Receipts from the Patent office for the month of June amounted to $6,353, and for the fiscal year just ended to $74,796, or an increase of $2,879 over the previous year.
The best shooting made by the militia of New Brunswick was by Capt. Cropley’s 7ist battalion. A high compliment has been paid the 7ist in guard mounting for several days in succession.
At Toronto a few days ago John Grelish received 25 lashes for crimina! assault. At the third blow he _ burst into tears, and throughout the rest of the flogging begged piteously for mercy. He is to receive an- other 25. Serve him right !
Ina general way the revenue from the sale of stamps is a pretty good index of the prosperity of the country. A statement prepared by the Post Ottice Department will be all the more gratifying in view of this, inasmuch as it shows a healthy in- crease in the total sale ot $157,497.60 over the previous year. The total receipts for the tiscal year ending June 50, 1886, were $2,420,205.25, and for the year ending June 50, 1887, $2,547,703. 94.
The period for receiving tenders for con- veying mails between Canada and Great Britain for a period of ten years closed to-day. The principal tendereis are under- stood to be the Canadian Pacific railway, in its corporate capacity or represented by capitalists, and the Allan and Dominion steamship lines. Mr. Andrew Allan, the Montreal ship owner, submitted a tender this morning. He stated that the Allan and Dominion companies were jointly eudeayoring to secure the contract. These two steamship corporations, he said, had the plans, lines and specifications ready for a fleet of ocean greyhounds, the construc- tion of which would be commenced in the event of a favorable consideration of their tender on the part of the Government. Increased speed, calculated to shorten the trans-Atlantic voyage, is the principal desideratum in the amended conditions of contract. The vessels adapted for the service have also to be equal to the best steamers now afloat. The Allan line is now enjoying an extension of the ccntract until the Government comes to a decision regarding the new service.
The Monetary Times makes these sensible comments on the agitation stirred up in Manitoba over an independent railway to the boundary:—‘‘On the question of dis- allowance Parliament has relieved the Government of isolated responsibility. It has decreed that connection of Manitoba to disregard the resolution of Parliament incur a grave responsibility. There can be no doubt that the decision of Parliament will be carried into effect, and it is the merest. delusion for any one to persuade himself to the contrary. The supreme authority will certainly prevail. The best thing that Manitoba can do is to exercise 4 reasonable degree of patience. The time is not far distant when she will get all she wants, and in the meantime let her reflect that the expenditure of the largest amount of public money lavished on any Canadian enterprise has made civilization possible within her borders.”
— Tue poor little ones. We often see children with red eruption on face and hands, rough, sealy skin, and often sores on head. These things indicate a depraved candition of the blood. In the growing period, children have n of pwe blood by which to build up strong and healthy bodies. It Dr. Pierces golden medical discovery is given, the blood is rged of its ba! elements, and the child's Sesthapeeat will be healthy, and as it should be. Scrofulous affections, rickets, fever-sores, hip-joint disease or other grave maladies suffering are sure to result from neglect and lack of proper attention to such cases. $a W -_-
