I saw by a Leadfr received since
my arrival here, that you had heard
from me per postal; as I am running
away from nobody I once more let
everybody know where "we" are. ' (Of
course everybody icill know it as soon
as the Leader comes out, if you see
fit to publish this.) If I miss a copy
of the paper I am as anxious to know
why as any advertising agent, and
there isn't a publisher in the U. S.
who doesn't know that the aforesaid
advertising agents are looking after
all the publications with which they
have a contract.
Wa had a most pleasant trip from
North Carolina to New Hampshire,
idling icater all the way from Norfolk
to Boston. The sea was as smooth as
I ever saw it'with one exception, and
any one who would be sick on such a
trip would well, he couldn't know

I ed by water North and South several
times and I'm not writing this for a
reading notice either but of all the
lines I've been on I vote for the Mer

Baltimore, Norfolk and Boston. The

running about to see if they can't make

no less attentive to the comfort of their

This U the ease in America, how
ever, for our men are busy, and busi
ness men cannot leave their business.
So while their families sniff the sea
breezes from wide varandas of summer
hotels, the head of the house is at
home in his office and the general
gloom of a "closed" house. Some
thing must be done to enliven the
hours, so he very naturally looks about
for diversion to dispel the shadows of
his deserted house. Hence the stories
of "knowing winks," "sad dogs," and
gay Lathorios, that are so" often ap
plied to married men and gay bache
l. r i . -
lors of doubtful age. And this brings
me to a very funny incident that hap
pened in Cincinnati last week. Most
of the families of prominent men of
the great city lying just across the
river from the Blue Grass, are at the
sea shore just now, and you frequent
ly meet them (the men) at the summer
gardens in the suburbs where iced,
frothing beer is served in cool stone
mugs and a drttch dinner is in progress,
while the orchestra dispenses music to
the gay revelers underneath the trees.
But there are seven days in a week,
and this more than twice a week be
comes monotonous, and his Lordship
or the Lordships must find other
amusements than dining on boilod
chicken, garnished with smear-case
and cabbage a la deutxehc, for the af
ternoon and long summer evenings. '
The river affords much pleasure for
these desolate gentlemen, and they
can be seen forming a jolly party in
negligee shirts and soft hats, on "the
deck ot a steamer going up or down
the river.
