The exodus Iroin the metropolis
mentioned in my last, continues and
w ill continue lor some time yet, but
still the city docs not seem to linn out 1
perceptibly. For one thing Now York!
is too I;iroe to show the absence ol the
comparatively tew thousand who can .
ullord the regular summer Indira, and ,
for another the places ol those thus

temporalilv gone is filled, also tempo'
rarity, by the large nuniberof strangers
1 which are brought hither by CVnten*
j uiiil and other attractions. The amount
of summer travel to this city this year
would be surprising in yiew of the
universal hard limes, were il not for
the extraordinarly low rales that pre*
j vail upon all the trunk lines. 1 he re*
j <ltu:iions reeeutly made did not, it is
| needless to say, originate in the dis*
interested benevolence ot the various
: corporations, but are merely a part of
their annual illuslrution oi the old
! saying about biting one's own nose off
to spile one's neighbor. The result is
I loss to the railroads, but it's an ill
I w ind that blowa nobody good, and tho
compensating ad vantage in this ease
is that the public can now travel about
as eheuply as they can live at home.
One can go from here to Niagara Falls
j and back for $9, while the fare to
I Chicago is $13, to the Mississippi $21,
I to the .Missouri $29, and to the l'aoilio
$I2.V Further reductions are perhaps
yet in store. Now is the time, there*
