Though far away, compared to the liBt of summering places reviewed, tho Watkina Glen locality and central New York extend an alluring charm to many who doairo a completo change of scene, some cool Bpot to reat in and some littlo communion with nature in her most romantic and unuaual aspects. Watkins Glen is truly fascinating, with its wild, crsgged gorge throe miles long, with its cataracts and overhanging cliffs. The gorge is cooled by the spray of the falls and the moving water of the brook that traversas it.

Above, on the crags, the air is cooled by the gentle breezes from the lako and by tho considerable altitudo of the Bpot.

There is the Riker house, the Windsor hotel and cottages, the Pavilion hotel and the Grand Viow Hotel.

There is old Tarrytown, with its flavor of quaint legend and war time tragody and romance. Its prettily shaded streets and fiuo out lying country, its beautiful, sightly location on the river.

Where to spend the summer? It is a question being asked in many Brooklyn homes and not in alt oases has the answer yet been found, ovon though the month of roses is nearing its end and the Fourth of July is within hearing distance. By way of helping its readers to reach conclusions on this interesting point, the Eaole prints to day a review of the more noted and ac ceBsablo summer resorts. It is a lone list and that taste is presumably hard, indeod.to please, which cannot find mention of some spot, either in the mountains or by the seaside, that promises to afford satisfaction.

In the number and variety of the pleasure resorts within comparatively easy reach of their limits, few cities, more than New York and Brooklyn, havo cause for self congratulation. Some of the fiueBt in the string of pearls on the Atlantic coast are within two or threo hours' ride of Brooklyn, while those to whom tho mountain air and scenery are preferable and who are fond of the Catskills or tho Whito mountains, will find plenty of room for their accommodation. Tho shutters are down for the season and the hotel and boarding house koepers are ready for business. Further information concerning desirablo hotels and boarding houses can be obtained by examining tho Eagle's well filled Summer Resort advertising columns. First among the favored lands that Bproad themselves before the Brooklynito for his summer delectation is the one that belongs to him above all others under the sun, the fair land of Long Island.

Its beauties are unnumbered. Nature has lavished, from her whole store of wealth, upon its hills and meadows, upon its rocky shores and stretches of sandy beach, ivery taste or rte siro of summer environmentthat humau thought can frame may find gratification in some one or more of Long Island's beautiful retreats. Does one wish the country quiet, the level fields or tho health giving breath of the pines and fir trees, he mav find it in the heart of tho island. Doos one seek the wooded shores, the rugged cliffs or the breezy hills, then follow along the north shore. If the sandy beach and the brisk winds from off hundreds of miles of old ocean are desired, then take up a habitation along the southern edge of the island.

Notalono from its beauty or various aspects does Long Island furnish the chief and host summer resorts for Brooklyn people. Every spot is easy of access. Hardly does one get beyond the limits of the city blocks and dusty streets when he enters immediately within tho gates of Long Island's rammer paradise. Glance now at the resorts which come within a half hour's ride of the heart of the city, and note with them the names of hotels and cottages which open their doors to welcome the summer wanderer. Tucked close up to the side of Brooklyn and forming part of the city's area is Bay Hidge.

Even here there is a water view which for constant change and kaleidoscopic variety is unsurpassed anywhere along the island. Here are tho Willow cottage and the Jude Betow villa. A little farther south, in the territory of New Utrecht, are Fort Hamilton and the Grand Viow hotel. Then comes Bath beach, with its sweeping curve of shore, where are the Avon beach hotel, Myra cottage, Hotel Hollywood, Utrecht cottage, tho Bnena Vista, the Dunning, Lowrey houso and cottages and Mrs. M.

It is needless to speak to Brooklymtes of Coney Island, or of tho magnificent Oriental, Manhattan beach and Brighton beach hotels. At Van Siclon station is the Oceanic and at Shcepshead Bay tho Manhattan villa. Rockaway and Far liockaway are equally familiar to Brooklyn people.

Among the summer hostelnes at the first named are tho Lihou house and cottages, the Seaside houso and the Beachmere house. At Hammers station, between the Ilockaways, are tho Fairvicw cottages for the summer folks. Far Rockaway has tho Bayswater house, the Mansion house, the Belmoro cottages and Mrs. T. H.

Pettit's. Facing tho white sands of Long beach is the Long beacn hotel and cottages. Among the near by resort on the north shore iB Bayside, where is the Grand View mansion. While these Bplendid hotels and cottages dot the Bhores of the near resorts, they aro but an introduction to the inland itself. The fast trains and the splendid service of the Long Island railroad place almost within as ready access tho beauties of the island throughout it3 length and breadth.

Taking up tho line of tho railroad along the south shore and passing Pearsalls, Bockvillo Center and Baldwins, thriving villages, one comes to Freeport, where James B. Smith and Mrs. E. Yeritz offer inducements to emigrants for summer pleasure. Four stations beyond is charming Massapequa and the Masaape qua hotel.

Next following is Amityville, where are A. J. Baxter's and King's hotelB. Babylon, a quiet, but thriving summer place, has Airs. S.

The territory has not, as it lias to tho north, Bouth and far east, been so absolutely taken pos eession of by the summer vacation seeker. The central line of the Long Island railroad oxtends through all this region to Greennort. and thence steamer is taken to Sholter island. Attention will be called to some of the villages and resorts of this section. Mineola.

tho seat of the Queens county agricultural society, lies a restful little plaoe, with a small population, mainly of permanent residents. It has the Mineola hotel. West bury is tho next station beyond, a farming village. Hero B. F.

Titus keeps a boarding house. The greatest beauty of the island's center is found at Brentwood, where the pines and the fir trees chango the harsh sea breeze to a healing breath for the sick. It is a health resort, a veritable sanitarium. Tho Astral, a fino hotel re jeutly completed, offers every accommodation to ihe robust and the feeble alike. To the northwest iB Comae, also among the pines.

Hero the Woodflide farm opens its doors to strangers. To tho cast is lake Ronkonoma. a lovely sheet jf waters, guarded by the hotel, the Towers. Still further along ono arrives at Coram, a farming village, where is tho boarding house of E. E.

Flanders is only a couple of miles south of Rivor head, and hero again a hostess stands waiting in tho person of Mrs. Benjamin, Loaving River world wido reputation as tho national watering place of America. Situated in a region fraugh with historic interest, possessed of natural at tractions, varied, numerous and valuable, sur rounded by the majestic scenery of adiacent mountains, with pure air and delightful climate, she has for more than a century been a realiza tion of fancy to tho tourist, tho pleasure seeker and the invalid. Progress has been gradual, but effective and permanent, and the Saratoga of to day, as yet unrivaled, ia the result of steady growth in public estimation which has in creased with nidi succeeding year. Tho past three decades have witnessed tho erection of nearly all of the large hotels and tho creation of the cottage eloment, aud it is doubtful if tho visitor of i860 would now rec ognize the place.

Magnificent drives have been laid out and annually sustained and this, with the extensive improvement of every portion of the village, 1ms wrought a complete 5nd thor ough transformation. A four mile drive out Union ovenuo leads to Saratoga lake, a beautiful sheet of water, nine miles long by about a milo and a half wide, decidedly picturesque. It has been tho scene of many a college regatta and trials of skill between the most renowned oars men of the world. A Ghort distance away is Lako Lon ily, so surrounded by forest as to almost hide its presence. Here is tho most romantic spot in the vicinity of Saratoga.

It is really lake of consic'erablo importance, though seldom alluded to. About Beven miles in a north, orly direction and connected with Saratoga by a mountain railroad is Mount McGvegov rearing itself 1,400 feet above the sea level and on the top of which, facing to tho rising sun, is the now historic cottage where General Grant suffered and diod. Under authority law the Grand Army of the Republic zealously protect it Mgai any careless intruder. Tho foremost of all attractions are the springs them selves. Of thoso thero aro some twenty four or twenty five located in different parts of tho vil lage, some outside of the corporation, but princi pally along a ravine which extends ltsoll in a northeasterly direction.

This ravine clearly divides the town, tho western portiou being on an immediate rock bottom, while tho eastern and newer part of the town ia a plateau of sand. As the springs differ from each other in analysis, it follows that thero is a spring to be fouud here suitable to every ill that flesh is heir to; conse queutly, each has its patrons to a greater oi less degree, according to the particular malady sought to be treated. Out ou Union avenue. only a short and easy walk from all the hotels, is the famous race course, established in 1SG4 and remembered as the sceno of those cele brated contests which grew into a sturdy rivalry, assuming national importance, as to tho relativo merits of Eastern and Western horses. While there are no public parks, yet, through tho mu nificence of private individuals and maintained entirely at private expense, there are thoso which for extent and beauty of natural scenery and adornment are unexcelled.

Woodlawn park, tho property of Judge Hilton, with over twenty miles of drives and beautiful statuary gathered from all parts of the world; Yaddo, owned by Sponcou Trask, boh in law of Georgi! L. Nichols, of Brook lyn.with its triplet of lakes and shaded roadways; Excelsior park, in tho conter of which are tho ten Bpnngs, property of tho Lawrenco estate, and lastly Congress park, tho very gem of parks. All these and more afford au unequalod diversity of attractions It is estimated that fully five hundred thousand people visit Saratoga annually during tho course of tho year, somo romainiug for long periods, others lor Bhort. Tne rosiuent population is about fifteen thousand, and at times, as during June, July and August, for instance, this is so supplemented that a summer population of about thirty five thousand is attainod. To properly entertain so large a number thero are over fifty hotels, largo aud small, and between ono and two hundred boarding houses.

Tne prices tor board very trom SO to $40 per week, according to accommodations required. Of tho largo hotel. and some of them the largest in tho world may be mentioned the Grand Union, United States, Congress hali, Kensington, Windsor and Clarendon. These will each accommodato more than four hundrod guests, whilo some of thorn will seat at tho dining table from ono thousand to fifteen hundred people. In addition to the above there is the Hucstis, the Victoria, Everett, Kenmore, Aldine, American, Irving, Holden, Werden.

Linwood, Albermarie, Tefft house. Circular street house, Empire, Spencer, Balch house, Willoughby, Healey cottage. Garden Viow, Congress Park houso, Columbian, Washburuo, Woodlawn cottage. Those while not accommodating as many as the larger hotels first mentioned, yet aro all perfect models of their class. Dr.

Strong's sanitarium, situated on Circular street, is probably the leading institution of its kind in the United States. Anyone desiring to visit Saratoga and who will consult the above list cannot fail to receive that perfect entertainmont which, in addition to the wonderful springs, makes Saratoga what sho is, tho great national watering place. The North Woods. Under this name may be included a large tract of country extending from the Lako George region to the northern limits of New York state, though it is commonly applied to the Adiron dacks. A cool and salubrious region, this, with scenery of interesting and often impressive char acter, abounding in lily dotted ponds and trout fillt streams and shelving toward those larger sheets of water, lakoB George and Champlaiu, whose beauties have been onng and painted by poet and artist since this nation had an art and a literature.

In the thick of the woods, miles from any hamlet, hunterB like to make their camp, for they know that deer and bear abound there, and is a spleudid country for liars, on account of tko fishing. Lake George is a lovely spot; deep, narrow, walled Dy mountains, dotted witn islands and fringed with vegetation, amid which ono has glimpses of pretty villas aud comfort able looking hotels as his boat speods through the little archipelagoes that seem almost to float on its mirroring snrface. Every turn brings new beauties into view, and there ib not a dull Bpot on the lake. Excellent accommodation are to bo had here at tho Sagamoro aud Bolton bouse, Bolton; tho Agawam, at Aga warn lauding; Brook dale house, Silver bay; Horicon lodge, Clev erdalo: Hanuibal Allen's, Shelving Rock; Elwyn Sneley's, Joshua Rock; Uugeno See ley's, Fort George, the Lake house, and tho Fernwood aro at the head of tho lake. A few miles only intervene botweon lakes George and Champlain and the blue and sunny expanses of tho last named sheet of water are reaehod near Fort Ticonderoga (FortTiconderoga hotel), whoso ruins are a monument to the heroism of Ethan Allen and his bravo Green mountain boys.

De scending this lako by steamer a magnificent panorama is opened on either side, less romantic than that along Lake George, but more spacious and more fertile. The Buck mansion and Charles Townsond's, at Crown Point, and the Hotel Windsor at Rouse's Point are near the shore and command fino views of tho Adirondacks on the west and the Green mountains on the east. From the very edge of Lake Champlain rise the hills that, a few miles farther back, swell into the purple domes of the Adirondacks, craggy and steep, clothed to the waist in woods except where tho hand of tho spoiler has clearod the timber and left nothing but granite pyramids. In the wildest and deepest recesses of this wilderness oue comes npon pretty little Battlements, like that of the artist colony in Eeene valley, and clean, white walled hotels, where may be obtained the comforts of town plus the luxuries of the woodland. In tho valleys, also, are little lakes, known to the sportsman long before their beauty Xbo Animal Reunion of the Bloody Fortieth.

Twenty nine years ago, under tho command of Colonel Edward J. Riley, the Fortieth regiment. New York volunteers, loft for the seat of war Tho regiment, known as tho Mozart, on account of being organized in Mozart hall, in New York city, participated in every battle in which the army of the Potomac took part. Tho brave boys soon got a reputation for fighting that was second to none, and tho regiment became known as the Bloody Fortieth. Time and again, on account of the number of its men killed, tho Fortieth had to be strengthened with recruits from other regiments.

Among these were such men as General Hobart Ward and Corporal Tanner. Tho Mozart regiment was officered principally by Brooklyn men and one whole company, Company was made up of boys from tho City of Churches. Colouel Uiley was a Brooklyn boy and so was Lieutenant James E. Mallon, who was killed at the battle of Bristow's Station. According to army records the Mozart, with ono exception, lost more men than any othor regiment in the war and that oxeoption was tho Sixty ninth, New York Volunteers.

They dream of game and sleepy hollows to the miiBic of mountain cataracts or the wind through forest groves. Thero is a sound of tinkling cow bells in the air as in Switzerland: The only sound perhaps breaking the sweet reposeful calm that hanga over an evening landscape of mountains and valleys, the distant river with its creeping flotilla of boats and the steeples and roofs of a far away town. The night is cool with breezes.

Mosquitoes are unknown and malaria unfeared. In the little valley towns there is much that ia quaint and picturesque beside the peaks around them. They are lazy little burgs, but they are i also reposeful, and experience and competition havo taught many of their people to keep good boarding houses and comfortable hotels. For the modost summer boarder or few days' visitor to the haunts of Kip Van Winkle thero are neat rooms aud a good country table for little money. Up in tho highest mountains, mauy hundred feet above tho Hudson, little towns with big hotels crown the peaks or perch ou the moun tain aide, surrounded by lovely grounds and commanding wonderful views.

One of the at tractions to the Brooklyn man and his family of tho Catskills is their nearness. A few hours' ride brings him right into thoir midst. Tho mountains cover part of Oreono, Ulster and Delaware counties, the heart of the high altitudes lying some nine miles in from the Hudson. There are two ways of reaching tho Catskills by Hudson river steamers and by rail. Many find it ploas ant.

to go ono way and return by tho other. By boat tho traveler is landod either at Rhinebock or Rondout, whonce a railroad leads into tho mountains, or at Catskill, whero trains depart on the Catflkill mountain railroad. Tho village of Catskill lies somewhat back from the river and concealed from the view. It is tho headquarters for many pleasure seekers who delight in fishing and boating on the Hudson or the pretty Catskill creek, or rambles and drives into tho mountains which present an imposing picture from tho village, or they can wander to tho lakes in the near by steeps of the range. Thero are plenty of excellent hotels and boarding places in the town, such as the Prospect park hotel, the Grant houso, the Orchard grove house, Salisbury houBO, P.

P. Van Valkenburg's, J. L. Salisbury's, where guests can stay for a day or arrange for a visit that will enable them to test all the pleasures of the neighborhood. Back from Catskill the little railroad leads into the heart of the mountains.

The road goes west to Cairo junction and thero divides, ono branch going north to Cairo and tho other south to Palenville. This road, which makes considerable of an ascent in its progress into tho region of grand earth upheavals, furnishes an opportunity for fino excursions by thoso who havo made their headquarters at Catskill, to be made in a day and return or to reach somo fino villages and lodge at high perched hotels by thoso who intend to spend somo days at some placo in the mountains. On the way to Cairo junction the railroad passes through tne pretty little village of Leeds, offering a quiet and pleasant retreat in full view of somo lofty peaks and near fishing. Among tho places thero that invite summer boarders aro the Bethel ridge house and J. McGiffert's.

South Cairo, well spoken of for its pretty scenery and line surroundings, is also ou tho railroad, a few miles uearor the lofty peaks. There are plenty of hotels here, among them the Little falls house, tho Kinner houso and the Earl house. Cairo is ten miles from Catskill, in among tho highlands, for just back of tho villago towers the Black head mountain. Tho tops of the Catskills rise in a mgnifl cent view hardly four miles distant. Several lines of stages rnn into tho village, which is well equipped for entertaining the summer boarder or transient tourist Among the hotels and residences that are open to summer guests may bo mentioned the St.

Elmo, the Glen falls house, tho Maple lawn house, the Shade lawu house, tho Mower house, the Nontdale houso, Walter Schoonmaker, J. F. Scott, F. E. Miller, A.

W. Abeel, Shubal Finch, H. Jones, C. T. Johnson, John Boyce and Joseph Richards.

Before reach ing Palenville on the railroad south, tho sightly Catskill mountain houBe, which is situated at an altitudo of 2,250 feet ou a mountain side over ooking a vast panorama of the Catskill region and the Hudson river, has a station. Between this station and tho hotel is a flat rock on which Rip is reputed to have taken his twenty yearB' slumber. From Palenville the big hotel Kaater Bkill, perched on the mountain top, iB roached. Palenville, the gathering place for landscape artists, is right in among the beauties of the Catskills. It is at tho entrance of tho attractive gorge, the Kaaterskill clove, which every tourist into this region visits.

There aro plenty of good hotels and stopping places at Palenville, such as tho Stony brook houso and tho Hanover house. Tho beautiful PlaaterkiH cove is about eight miles Bouth of Palenville. It is reached by carriage road from Saugerties. Here is tho Plaater kiH mountain Iioubo and the Garrison houBe among beautiful mountain scenery. If the traveler to the Catskills arrives from the south by railroad he will come by tho West Shore or New York Central.

If by the latter, he will cross the river to Catskill from the Catskill sta tion. By the West Shoro routo ho arrives a mile nearer the mountains, whero a transfer is made to tho Catskill mountain railroad. Tho boats. which land at Rondout, connect with a railroad that passes through the mountainous part of Ulster county before taking the tourist up into Greene county where the places already mentioned are locatod. One of the pleasant stopping places on this lino is Browne's statiou, fifteen mileB west of Rondout, on high land, and commanding a view of tho mountains north of it.

Among thoso that take boarders hero aro William Winn and Albert Brown. At Phenicia (hotel, tho Tremper house), some fifteen miles further, the railroad branches northeast direotly into the center of tho mountain region. At Kur.ters kill it divides, and to the west it goes to Hunter, passing by the famous Stony clove, walled in by abrupt mountains more than 3,000 feet in height. Hunter is in among tho tall Hunter mountain, but two miles distant, is in fact the giant of the entire range. Hunter itself iB 1,000 feet above tide water.

At Hunter tha hotolB aro plentiful, chief among them the Kaats borc the Breeze Lawn house, the Hunter house, and the Prospect house. It is ten miles over to I them galore at the Grand View and the Bluff house. Milford is a charming place. Further down the river, at tho Delawaro Water Gap. thero aro the Arlington, the Contral, the Kittannoy and the Cataract house.

AtStroudsbergis the Murray Hill cottage and tho Burnett house, and at East Stroudsberg the Prospect house and the Locust Grove house. If you would go further afield, at Shawnee are the Shawnee house and the Echo Valley farm house; at Doylestown, Neshaming hall: at Mount Poeono, tho Belmont house; at Dundaff. tho Dundaff villa; at Bedford mineral springs, tho Springs house, and at Mauch Chunk, the Mansion houso. AU the regions named are favorite haunts for tho Bportsman, whether he affects the rod and reel or tho breech loador. He will not go amiss at any of them.

Trout hide in tho mountain streams and in the Delawaro, and in tho many lakes tho black bass haa his habitat, while the woods teem with gamo and tho air is glorious. Nctv England.

Tho tastes of somo peoplo lead them to the warm, sweet valleys of Connecticut: othors prefer tho brilliancy and show of Newport; the bluo domes of Berkshire and the tall and tranquil mountains of Yermont havo thousands of admirers through the heated term; hunters and fisherman find virgin woods and waters in Maine; tho Whito mountain resorts aro thronged all through tho summer and along tho coast all varieties of sconery may bo found, to say nothing of bathing a vigorous surf.
