Y., July 6 (Special).—Most of the States east of the Mississippi are now represented here. An autograph hunter, an invalid a beBe, an equestrian, a lover of horseflesh in any form, the laziest man on earth, the busiest, or the most weary, would find here a rich field for operations. Outdoors is like an annex to Central Park, m the-number and variety of turnouts, the horseback parties, the clink of the harness, and the rich carriage toilettes to be seen. Indoors is to be found all the scope that ever human being craved for, for the exhibition of good dressing, good manners, good brains and good diges- tion. Ed. Annan's turnout Is a high, two-seated Eng- lish cart of all the flesh tints that ever flesh assumed, drawn by a pair of chestnut bays, with banged tails •and tan and silver harness. Mr.' Annan Is manager of the lighterage department of David Dows <fc Co-'s. grain house in.Brooklyn. • W. D." Ellis, of New-York, swept up to the dooirs of the Tuller House this week with a party of six, a faur-in-hand and two outriders, having" driven over- land here -Brom the city. '•'*'• Mrs. W. H.

In the parlor of the Spring House is a fine pastel portrait of Mrs. Langtry, painted from a photograph familiar to New-Yorkers. It is colored in pale yellow and lavender and is by Martinez. The position troubles ex-Governor Van Zandt, although he is enthusiastic about, tho coloring. " A coquettish posture taken by a pretty woman, which comes and passes in a flash, should not be photographed," he says. .. Ex-Governor Zandt is the life of the Spring House porch, parlor and dining-room. His wife is the centre always of a group of charmed people. She dresses always in black. . , Dancing, billiards and bowling are among the at- tractions at the Earlington. William E.

July 6 (Special).—At las* the rainy season seems over in the mountains; and thousands of visitors are flocking here by every avenue of ap- proach. The Ulster and Delaware Railroad Company reports a much heavier traffic to du,te than at the same period in previous years. The West Shore has a like record. ' .. y One of the prettiest summer villages on the Ulster and Delaware is Stamford, and visitors are rapidly finding It out. The place was literally crowded last year, and the present outlook Is/more favorable than ever. Dr. Churchill, of" Churchill Hall, has more guests than last season at this time, and all the Stam- ford registers are bristling with engagements. Many beautiful cottages are dotted here and there tn the mountain glen. Mrs. Charles Bathgate anc Miss M J. Bathgate, of New-York, are building a handsome cottage, to cost $10,000, on a site purchased from Dr. Churchill. . Robinson Brothers, the new Overlook managers, gave a reception to Invited guests there on Inde- pendence Day. They make the announcement that they already have sufficient engagements to fill the house two-thirds of Its capacity for the season. Dr. George F. Shrady has arrived with his family at his Pine Ridge cottage for the summer. General Sherman is es pected in the Catskills, as the guest of General Sharpe. '. The Fourth passed off rather quietly at the Kaaters^ kill, but closed with a hop in the evening. Rom»w Gillls is the assistant manager at the Grand. He was. the manager there when the house first opened in 1881. . The Laurel House, down at the • Falls, looks forward to a big season.

Long Branch, July 6 (Special).—The heavy rains o* the last week kept many of the expected hotel guests in their city homes until yesterday, when every train from New-York was s\heavlly loaded with passengers that many were compeued to stand up all the way to Long Branch. To-day the."trains.from the oity were run in sections, and every car was crowded with pleasure-seekers. . ! Tho owners of good houses are rejoicing over the ef- forts that are being made to restore Ocean.ave. R. Percy Dobbins, who represents the heavy property interests of both his father, Richard J. Dobbins, and himself, has taken the contract, for filling in the big cut made In this popular drive near the Howland Hotel. The avenue has been closed to travol, and a now drive- way has ^beeh laid out around the out through Mr. Dobbins's lawns. The work, of filling and bulkhead- ing is being pushed forward as rapidly as possible. John Hoey, the president of the Adams Express Com- pany, owns the property north of the great ocean pier where the- sea dashed its way into the avenue , last winter. He has offered to repair the roadway at.his own expense. The "cut" in Ooean-ave., near the United States Hotel, will probably not be repaired until the-'close of the summer season. .•:•', • In spite of the boasts of the Long Branch Law and Order League, the gambling houses are in full blast this season. * There was unusually heavy play at one of them on the night of Independence Day. A' well- known Hebrew merchant of New-York, played $250 ohips at faro, and bet four of them at a time on the turn of a card. The railroads are doing better this season than in any previous year of the ooast's history. The trains from New-York are frequently delayed because they carry too much baggage, but speoial trains will be run after this week, composed of baggage cars only. There are. an unusually large number of fine musical enter- tainments arranged for this season. Ernest Neyer's popular orchostra gives delightful concerts in the parlor of Hildreth's West End Hotel o The band of Pro- fessor Bowron, at Leland's Ocean Hotel, gives concerts which are highly enjoyed by the guests and neigh- boring cottagers every morning. The great ocean pier looks well in its new coat of paint. The Iron Steamboat Company's vessels make two trips a day from New-York, crowded with people who prefer the all-water route. (_ ' The Fourth of July was celebrated quietly here this year. In the evening tho lawns of the cottages were gay with revolving wheels, rockets and Roman can- dles. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Doud Byron had an elabo- rate display of fireworks on tho beach fronting " Castle Byron." Mr.! Byron fired off the last piece himself. It represented an eviction scene In Ireland. At the proper time the eviction officers were blown to small pieces by a genuine American bomb, and the Ameri- can: flag and eagle appeared. A luncheon on the lawn followed. Among Mr. and Mrs. Byron's guests were Mrs. Langtry, Gunning S. • Bedford, Frederiok Gebhard. Mrs. John Drew, Miss Hattie Russell, John Burke, the Count Guacclmani, of Italy, and Arthur Rehan.

Many Brooklyn and New-York labor unions arc ex- cited over the question whether or not to join in the celebration of Labor Day on September 4, and the probability is that in this city a comparatively small number of unions will participate in tire annual labor parade, while in Brooklyn, it may be given up al- together. The Brooklyn United Trades have re- solved not to parade, but to hold a picnic instead.

One thing he does not believe in, however, is >the eight-hour law, and he com- plained bitterly to the writer ti»t " The World" and "The Sun" both quoted him not only as speaking, but his alleged speech at the eight-hour demonstration at Phoenix Park on July 4, while the fact was he was in Connecticut reading the Declaration of Independence.

A LIST OF 351,122 NAMES—OTHER VALUABLE FEATURES. , .Trcw's New-York City Directory for 1889 will be Issued to-morrow. . Beside a list of 351,122 names and addresses, it contains a special register corrected and enlarged, of all the city offices, departments, and boards; the schools, ferries, courts, posioffioes, churchos, asylums, all manner of public institutions and a complete street directory. The increase in the number of names since that of last year was com- piled is 15,894. The resident population of the city Is estimated at 1,755,610, in addition to which there is a floating population < of about 400,000 who go in and out of town dally. The publishers call attention to tho fact that there are still many people who evade the canvassers, and refuse to give their names or even give false names in tho hope of escaping Jury duty and taxation. There are often other causes wbioh make them squeamish about giving their cor- rect names, and if caught unawares and called by their own names, they will still soels to mislead by spelling them wrongly. • There is no marked increase In the number of Smiths in tho directory, but thoy occupy eighteen double- column pages as heretofore. The John Smiths havo nearly two pages all to themselves; the widow Mary Smiths fill almost an entire column, while no less than twenty-one Catherine Smiths, all widows, stand together as a sort of silent protest against tho short-lived nice of Smiths they wedded. Of people whoso names bo- gin wjoh tho letter Z, there aro nearly ten pagos. The X's mako an insignificant figure, mustering only nfno In tire book.
