A WINTER VACATION.

Our Corregpoudent'a Sbort Trip to the West I miles—from Frigid Blast* to Balmy Breezes, roHlJPaniniar to N«w and Strange Scenes.

-sr "Spocial Correspondence of the Express.' NEW YORK, N. Y., January 28.—

When a man finds liimself atsca, one day from New York, jirymonading the dsck of a steamer in Ciompany with a pretty girl he realizes that for once he is actually keeping holiday. The obligation of sharing his recreatioa.with an unknown number of good-natured readers sits lightly on him. Enough that he has a delightful present and also."a'more delightful future, that every hour of the voyage continue to augment his happinets and that at its termination he will be ~r, overwhelmed with novel enjoyments. -C struggles with the imperfect recollection of a hymn about "seas of heavenly

I rest," and his fair companion laughingly helps him out in the quotation. Fog, rain and cold were left behind a few hours after sailing. The morning shines comfortably on a set of gleeful passengers who are already well acquainted with each other, and talk freely. It is difficult to realize that not many hours .... ago a solitary little fellow in spectacles stepped aboard this steamer. How he has growa since! The boat speeds along.

We cross the Gulf stream the night after the first day at sea find the weather alidSt n03t summer-like the nextday bid good109 bye to winter clothing the ensuing one. and wake on the fourth at the mouth of the harbor of Jfaspffu, 9G0 miles from the

NASSAU AND ITS SCENES. ^ssau, as the reader already knows, is ~tte capital of the island of New Providence, which is the-principal of the Bahama Islands, some valuable possessions of pur English cousins. The relationship experienced ashore, but meanrhile the steamer lies at anchor, is striking in its novelty. Hog aiTO fWB^the ^open sea and the ,rbor, the emeraldw&elets of which nee in the morning BUB., Low houses .nd white streets, and tropical plants and trees, such is Nassau. What contrasts in the view, but how harmonidus is it notwithstanding.

You go ashore on a skiff urged rapidly along by a stalwart boatman, passing on your way to land, vessels loaded with sponges, strange-looking tropical fruits and vegetables,

S^SCENE IN NASSAU,

and equally tl3h' The hotel at Nassau is managed by Americans, but is the property of the government and Shamed after England's "gracious queen."

Its leading architecural feature is the generous provision of a thousand feet of romenade on three ten-feet wide piazzas hich surround it. The structure stands on a"high and commanding position, giving a fine view of the city, island and iiidjacent islands. New Providence lis seen to be quite a large gem of the sea. It contains eighty-five juare miles of land, and presents vellent facilities for boating,'at easy nces on its enJjfp- ooiist. The city more-dtftttSe than one "long in aKppent," appropriates for the nly fourteen thousand people. ItS BUDTirbs are easy distinguishable and remembered: Fort Montague with its own tiny, as shapely as that of Naples, pretty houses, graceful palms and profuse wealth of garden Grantstown and Bainstown, the colored population of* which lived in thatched cabins without fireplaces and chimneys and rejoice in abundance grow ing with but little provocation in the Etlenic gardens surrounding their humble' alwdes and long well defined roads, the small villages which raise their heads above vast tracts of growing pineapples.

At home in the hotel is good company. :lag-Bpwn in the little city one finds a liWaF^^heatre and thtj usual expressions of advanced civilization. Stores, or as our

English friends call them, shops, are numerous, and seemingly well stocked, lack soldiers, the finest darkies this ribe ever saw, obey the word of comaud from English lips. White and Jack are alike dressed in material suitale for a climate warm, and varying but |ttle. Duck, silk, alpaca, and other sim goods, are seen on all hands, and are ^staples of the dry goods establishnts.

AMUSEMENTS IN NASSAU. Imusing oneself at Nassau is an easy tter, or, better to say, was found to be 'by a visitor whose stay was necesijiily quite a shojt one. The geological

In entering Nassau, the visitor jver fails to notice that the almost union green color of the water of the rbor is here and there dashed with space of white. This marks thelow 8pots, under which are wonul formations of coral. To inspect haunts of curious creatures, is a pleasure.- A lake near the city nis rich phosphoresent light to the /jturnal rower. Merely artificial atractions can have no place even for ,rief mention in this letter. The archly over the stony road in the picture, £lhe leisurely horse and more leisurely egroes, must be the last things to mention of Nassau and its surroundings. In narture for-Cnba the charm of the ityj ancTits natural surrounding,

Whether of land or sea, gives place to •^ew interests as the steamer speeds on its tjmthward way.

While having

MOKEO CA8TLI?—ENTBANCE TO HAVANA, no intention to stay at Santiago de Cuba, the first port reached, a few lines of de Bcription may be welcome to your readers.

It is distant 560 miles, a two days' sail, from Nassau. At the entrance to the the harbor is an old Moorish castle lift ing itself high above the cliff on which it stands and extending downwards on it nearly tQ the water—a most singular eight, lastingly photographed on the memory of everybody who sees it Leaving this castle behind, the steamer makes her way between rocky walls confining the water into a narrow and deep chan nel. Past these are slopes ornamented with tropical growths. and with here and there a frowning fort, and oftener the lovely home of a wealthy citizen. The barracks are the principal building on the western bank. Santiago is before you "tricked and frounced" in curious architectural variety of all conceivable "loud" colors. How different everything is from Nassau. That is English, this is Spanish. Contrasting with the simple English church and Methodist chapel of the one, is the cathedral of the other, with its ceremonial worship, gorgeously dressed images and showy pictures and frequent clanging bells. The Spanish soldier, the shovelhatted priest, the narrow streets, low onestoried houses, and trains of pack mules are all wondrous strange and good material for the observer, who finds the stores, |club-house8 and even private houses most liberally open to his interested inspection. The city is old, it was founded by Velasquez, in 1514, and looks as if most of it stood as long as that. The three fine club houses—are the most modern of the buildings. Persons of means occupying the best houses, of course furnish them in modern style and great comfort, and the old-faslfioned stores show the newest styles of goods. To look at the strange sights of Santiago, through a barred window in a hotel the rooms of which are without ceilings but show the bare rafters, is a singular experience. What an expenditure of„ iron all the houses have identical iron-bdrred windows, and probably all the bedsteads are, like mine, of iron also, and as gratefully ccol as the tiled floor from which I step into what find to bee mpst comfortable resting place. THE PLEASANT CITY OF CIENFUEGOS.

Cuba seems to be a much larger island than it actually is to the traveler, who finds himself left by the steamer at Cienfuegos, which is 320 miles northwest of Santiago de Cuba, with a considerable length of railway between him and Hala. An island comprising an area of 42,000 square miles aflords scope for a long visit and abounding diligence in the vise of' pen and pencil. One scene from Oienfuegoes must suffice to indicate, pic(orially, the mixture of the unfamiliar tropical, the antique and the modern which characterizes that interesting city. It has a beautiful harbor, which is entered past scenery at first picturesque, but afterwards gentle and lovely and scattered with dwellings and places of resort for such pleasures as bathing and fishing. The city fronts the tourist as the steamer enters the bay. Like Santiago it fairly revels in color, but is generally more modern, cleaner and pleasanter to the visitor who doesn't hanker after the. singular at the expense of his physical comfort. English is spoken in the city by a surprisingly good proportion of its inhabitants. Some houses are two-storied, an innovation not noticed in Santiago. They, are covered with colored plaster, and have deep barred windows, of course, and a court, ornamented with tropical plants and sometimesof large dimensions. Floors of tile, cool furniture and large open windows suggest the tropical climate. The narrow streets and sidewalks which must be made for ridiculously thin people, are like those of Santiago, and the soldiers, mules, priests, stores, peddlers, wild-like countrymen carrying lassos.and

PARK IN HAVANA.

knives are duplicates of what were seen in the larger city. The two club houses are among the handsomest in the Spanish West Indies. Altogether Cienfuegos makes a favorable impression on the American visitor, who is generally loath to leave it after the shorjt time usually at his disposal.

THE STRANGE SIGHTS OF HAVANA. Interest in Cuba, however, centers in Havana, the metropolis of the West Indies. It has a quarter of a million poputiou consisting of energetic people representing all the great nationalities. You enter the harbor past Morro Castle, and see before you a picture as beautiful ps strange. Greien hills are crowned with palm trees and banana trees. Houses dotting the scene of ample foliage here and there, are one-storied, and painted pink, or green, many of them white. Boats having a singly and brilliantly colored awning at the stern, hover about the steamer. Huge war ships lie at anchor, and grim forts frown from points of advantage on the shore. You enter a boat, and the deft owner, by the aid of a sail, soon has you ashore, where you find cab fares very reasonable, and specify that particular one of the leading hotels which you prefer. On your way you note the narrowness of the streets and sidewalks, the low, spacious houses, absence of glass from the windows, which are barred as in the other cities visited, the partially open doors for coolwhich you see the tiled or ess, througl larble floo vided

floors and cool furniture proby the prudent builder and

householder. The court in the dwelling, ventilates it ana particularly cuts ofi connection between the parlor and kitchen. Odors from cooking, are particularly disagreeable in hot latitudes. Every layman, of the military or a civilian, wears a straw hat, and the costumes of well-to-dojpeople are both sensible and elegant Arrived at jour hotel you find it an enlarged specimen of the house generally described above. The chamber allowed to you contains a bedstead of iron or other metal, has a wire netting in place of mattresses, and a canopy to protect the sleeper from bloodsucking insects. Rocking chairs abound in your lofty apartment, which you find sagaciously contrived for your comfort

Strolling in Havana is a great luxury at well chosen times, as mornings'and. evenings. The stores are handsome and

well stocked, and bear a fancy name,} Some Man to be Surprised, many of them, instead of that of the mer- New York'Letter in St Louis Republican, chant or firm owning them. I was in Mme. Hewitt's cofset inst

chant or firm owning A PLEASURE LOVING POPULATION. Public amusements are galore. The theaters are exceptionally large and elegant. One of them, the Tacon, has the capacity of three thousand seats. Another place of amusement, th6 Yerano, ^s entirely open at the sides. Like the Bom an amphitheatres of the antique world, the* circus can/be entirely uncovered from above. Clubs are luxuriously appointed in the best section of the city, where the finest theaters and such places are also located, namely on the Prado, which is best described as "a succession of parks leading from the waterspposite the Morro castle, almost across the city." When the military bands are performing in the cool of the evening, the wit ana gallantry, fashion and beauty of Havana, are seen to the best advantage. Then ladies appear id the most delicate of draperies and wearing the graceful mantilla.

RELIGION IN COSTLY GRANDEUR. The catherdral of Havana was built of volcanic stone and presents a rough exterior. Within, however, are compensating beauty and splendor. Traditional tattle about the building is less in-

CATHEDRAL OF HAVANA,

teresting to the matter-of-fact American than the costly magnificence of the altar, the monument erected on the place where the first mass was ever said in the city, and the.place in which the priests have stored the wealth of silver and gold, used on great occasions in the celebration of divine worship. The designs in which these fabulously costly things are wrought and the precious stones set into them are not more to be wondered at than the vestments of the clergy, heavy with embroidery and jewels that outshine the richest satin of which their warp and.woof are made.

Your correspondent found great pleasure on the Mole, a covered levee, which is the city's landing place, and is quite a busy scene, that is for Havana, where life is taken easily as a general thing.'

WHEN TO SEE HAVANA.

The many fascinations of Havana invite to a long stay, especially so when the visitor has fairly "done" the city, the suburban

CATHEDRAL AND PLAZA, CIENFUEGOS. places of resort, afford delightful recreation. If too, his tastes should lead him to investigate country life in Cuba,, the labor question and the knottier political problem, Havana will be found the best place of residence. From October to May this favored city is perhaps unequaled, certainly unsurpassed, for combined salubrity and sources of amusement and information. During the rest of the year, even its "born" inhabitants, as Pat says, abandon it to the sweltering heat of the summer, if the condition of the purse admits of the change.

The suggestion of a sea- trip in winter has a chilling and depressing effect to people living east of the Rocky mountains^ whatever the favored Californian may think of it but the wise man or woman with the necessary means and leisure, will not hesitate, if necessary, to leave port in a snow storm, bound for the new and pleasant sights and grateful comfort of the West Indies. These are reached in a few days by a voyage which increases in enjoyment with every hour, and realizes in both its continuance and termination, the scriptural description: "Old things are passed away, and all things are become new." HAL RANGER.

The Coins of Abyssinia.

Philadelphia Bulletin. The Marie Theresa dollar is the only coin known in Abyssinia. Cloth and bars of rock salt, (en inches long by two inches wide and deep, bound with a reed, serve as thftir' ordinary means of barter. A recent traveler says he made everlasting friendship with a villagej chief by making him a present of an empty Worcester sauce bottle, the glass stopper appearing to be a source of delight and comfort to him.

Tobacco In South Carolina. Boston Journal. Cotton raising" not being* profitable in some parts of South Carolina, the planters are turning their Attention to tobacco culture. There is said to be a belt of land in the'state specially adapted to the growth of the finest quality of leaf tobacco, equal to that raised in Macklenburg county, N- C., which is said to be the finest in the world. This region is found in Upper Edgefield, Newbury Fairfield and Chester counties.

The Blind Postmaster's Widow. Mrs. Farwcett, widow of the late past-master-general of England, is going to live with her sister, Miss Agnes Garrett, the well-known "art house decorator." The business, started some years ago by Miss Garrett, in conjunction with the late Miss Bhoda Garrett, to whose skill in designing and admirable taste it mainly owes its success, has now a large and lucrative connection, and Mrs. Fawcett's aptitude for bussness details will be of material assistance to her sister.

The Origin ot -Balloons. The story is published, respecting me origin of balloons, that Mme. Montgolfier had washed her petticoat to wear to a great festival on the next day, and hung it over a chafing-dish to dry. The hot air, swelling out the folds of the garment, lifted it up and floated it The lady was astonished, and called her husband's attention to the sight. It did not take Montgolfier long to grasp the idea of the hot-air balloon.

I was in Mme. Hewitt's cofset institution the other day, on Nineteenth street, when the wife ofa rich brewer brought her two daughters in to be newly rigged with stays and cordage. "Don't gettham corsets to tight," was her parting admonition, as she left them awhile. The eldest disrobed to fit on the new thing. She was a tall, slender girl with a nicely rounded waist and a good bust and pretty arms, while she stood in her tailor-made suit but .' when she undressed, ye Gods! her handsome myrtle green cloth waist was lined with silk. It was padded an inch thick on the back. It was padded five inches thick over the breast The upper part of the sleeve was slightly padded, but the under half had fully three inches of cotton. From this padded cell the lady escaped and I trem bled lest some one should open the door and let in the high wind blowing outside. Every bone in the narrow little chest was as visible as the bars of a grate. Two such broom-sticks of those poor arms I have seldom seen. I suppose she had a pair of drumsticks to match, and a bold, brave woman she is to trust ^herself round on 'em." Mad&ne produced the corsets—a marvellous feat of white em' broidery on blue satin. Behold thou, corsets were padded in front at the top and at the tottom behind so between Hewitt, the stay-maker, and Evernall, the dressmaker, Miss Malt Extract was turned out a "plump and pleasing person." But oh, my I there will be one indignant man in the world by and bv, and the resort of the swindled will be denied him. He can't go down to the mayor's office and make a complaint he will have to grin and bear it ana pray, that the cotton crop don't fail.

Peculiar Case of Poisoning. Amsterdam Sentinel. Some of our readers will recall an Englishman named Thunnan, who for several years was a resident of this village. They probably also remember that Thurman was compelled to go to an Albany hospitaJk for treatment for blood poison ing, saw to have been created by some arsenical composition used by a dentist in filling his teeth. Thurman is still in the Albany hospital, where he is gradually wasting away.

ANew Signal Baoy

A life buoy signal light has been invented, says the Chicago Herald, the purpose of which is to light up the sea in case of accident at night. It is attached to the life buoy by a cord, and upon being thrown overboard bursts immediate! upon striking the water. The light,whicl can not be extinguished by either wind or wave, burns for over an hour, and thus enables the work of rescue to be easily carried on.

WHY I HAVE THE UTMOST CONFIDENCE IN DR. J. H. SCHENCK AND HIS MEDICINE8. During" the past two years my motherland brother have died of Consumption. I was myself quite unwell most of this time, and when, shortly after their death, I was attacked with cough and Beveift hemorrhages, 1 naturally concluded that I was destined to go with the same disease. 1 immediately consulted a physician, who made a specialty of lung diseases. After examining mo, he said tbat he thought my luugs were sound, and that I would soon recover. In less than a week after this I had another severe hemorrhage. Thinking that my physician had made a mistake in my case, I consulted another doctor. He thought my lungs affected, and prescribed for me for along time. I got' no better under his treatment, but generally worse. My cough was very bad, my appetite en tirely gone I had severe pain in my right side, and for months I did not sleep more than two or three hours in a night. My tongue was heavily coated and I hkd a bad taste in my mouth. I had the headache almost all the time.

Feeling that something must be done, I at last concluded to consult with Dr. Schenck, the physician who, I think, I have good reason to believe, to be the best in tbe treatment of lung disease. I went to his office in Boston, and was examined. He found my left lung quite badly diseased, and nly liver seriously affected. He told me that 1 could be cured, if I would follow his directions. Of course I consented to djj so, and I very soon saw that my confidence in his ability was well placed. I took the Mandrake Pills, Seaweed Tonle and Pulmonic tyrup, all at one time, as directed by him, and within one month my worst symptoms were gone. I went to see the doctor on his next visit to Boston, .which was one mouth alter the first time I saw him, and he said "Only continue with the medicine and you will sureiy get well." I did so, and kept on gaining in every way until I was perfectly well, and able to work as usual. Since my recovery I have not lost a day's time, except when I have made friendly visits to the doctor at his Boston office. My cough is gone, my appetite is good, I have no headache or pain in my side I sleep better than I ever did In my life, and my lungs are apparently healed, as 1 have no hemorrhages.

These are the reasons why I believe in and recommend Dr. J. H. Schenck and his medicines. He did just what ho said he would do for me, and 1 believe that 1 owo my life to his medicines and •are. FRED. P. TBOXX. 1

STATEMENT OF MRS. ELLEN E.' BUTLER, CHARLESTOWN, MASS. Eighteen years ago I was so sick with what my physicians pronounced Consumption, that neither my friends nor myself thought that it was possible for me to recover. I had a terrible cough, with great loss of P.esh, night-sweats, and had quite severe hemorrhages as often as once a week.

Seeing that I was getting worse every day, from the treatment of my physician, I was induced to call on Dr. Schcnck on one of his visits to Boston. Alter examining my lungs, he said that they were sound, and thnt my trouble came from the liter, wldch was so badly swollen and inflamed as to

great relief, and by their use, for a few weeks, I was entirely cured. I have since advised their use In a great many cases of lung disease, and they have always done all you claimed for them,
