Ne,oport before Ftre-Sea Bathing and Fishing
Whoever named the beautiful island upon which
this gem of a town has ga local habtaton,'' - the
"Eden of America" need not to have consulted
for that purpose any lexicon but the scenes around
him. For certainly since man has fallen from his
high estate land become the sooty, sin-begrimmed
character which we told he is, there is no spot
in this part OF the universe where he can arrive
nearer a complete restoration of his chartered
rights" than this very Newport Sweating and dusty,
fresh from the great metropolis whose steaming
exhalatlons make one sour and iltempered with
himself and all the world, found myselfhere last
evening in the happiest mood imaginable, and
breathing an air as pure as that which played among
the leaves of that other Eden, long, long ago."
Your readers, of course, know that this is an old
town, and that there are many old people and
things in it. One Of the objects most deserving OF
attention is the "old mil" whose age and singular
rians. As was looking at it last night, and won
derng whether ii were indeed former haunt of
the spirits, look out for the old Mortimer, in
deed nothing buta windmill, the riddle was solved,
and my speculatlons knocked in the head by little
boy, who, in reply TO my question of what il wasl
said, with knowing look, 60, that was built by
the Injuns, long before the revolutionary, before
anybody had any memOry!'


The hotels are all filled up, so that with difficulty
found resting place, which at last did at the
Ocean House, where, putting capital segar, my
brow barred to the delightful sea breeze, and occa-
sionally glancing at the beautiful ladies' who are
promenading the piazza, am indicting this epistle
to you.


Bathing and fishing are of course the order of the
day here. Carriages leave several times a day tor
the beach, where roll in the surf can be taken
that gives one new life and vigor. Fishing boats
and pilots always be obtained for those who en-
JOY the sport OF catching bass, tauteg, &c. Here
are all sorts of people, milionaires, merchants,
bankers, gamblers, and loafers, all make Newport
a summer resort. Among the former notice Jacob
Little, Esq, who has thislmornng gone onsa fishing
excursion. But bark! the gong is sounding, and
must away to dinner.
