We hive always consistently and persistently ad
vocated suburban excursions, as healhful, promoilve
of the prosperity of the Inhabitants of a city, in that
it extends the range of their associations and inter
ests, and because it is in many other ways beneficial.
A city’s suburbs are moat important to its health.
The squares are its breathing holes, bat the lungs ol
a town would scarcely supply oxygen enough without
recourse to the open roads, the piney woods, the air
of the salts, and the invigorating alterative effects of
the urban limits.
A few days since we aooepted an invitation from
Col. E. H. Ktrlin to diue with him at the Vernon
House, White Bluff, which he has recently leased and
re-opened, vfter thoroughly renovating it.
We scarcely need enumerate the many attraction! 1
of White Bluff, but we can aay a good deal in the
wry of erconragement to those who hare not recent
ly been over the .Vernon Road. Three jear6
ago a correct description of this once
favorita pleasure track weitid have served better as
material for Volney’s Rains than a history of a living
opy*s suburbs. Ibe shells were all gone, or only
served la places to fairly obatract tieiibed. * “Bat the
Directors have shown much energy,—in fact, actual
intrepidity ; the stockholders have supported them ;
aud the public have topnd, what always has great in-
lluenca with the pablio, that the enterprise is a
success. ^
Having been rather an absentee from White Bluff
anil the Vernon Road, although we know of consid
erable improvements, wc were scarcely prepared for
the vast change for the better that has been effected.
There is scarcely au uneven place on it—in fact, we
do not remember one.
The morning was especially lovely; it seemed to ns
inimitable—well fitted for a foetal day for the Queen
of all the Montbs. The piney woods n^ver could
have given forth balmier odors. Tbe foliage beyond
and between was brilliant in new or freshened colors.
And the vistas where the massive boughs of the oaks
and kindred shade trees, meeting overheard in easy
embrace, welcomed us on, iet just enough of the sun
light through to sprinkle the ground with dancing rays
These avenues, or snatchea of avenue, rival in their
si. as on the far-famed oak-arched ways which make
one linger In Bonaveuture. Lesa majestic, they are
more charming.
Looking back on the city as we crossed the plain,
e thought we never saw lt look lovelier ; the foliage
all out, glimpses of flowers, and tbe town with a prom
ising, a growing appearanco, which must be observed
somewhat in the aggregate to be at all appreciated.
The wild flowers are bursting out along the lines of
the road, and the trees vocal with the voices of the
birds.
It seemed to this writer and his companion that
cool breezes and sniiBbine could scarcely be temper
ed together more admirably to illustrate the attrac
tions of the Southern vernal suasou. Aud in an ex-
huberauce, which after all scarcely needed any stimu
lant, we observed a lime-honored custom at the spring
by the Chutoh.
Arriving at the Vernon House we found that lnslltui
tion also as much improved as tbe road. The last
previous conductors of the house were thrifty and in
dustrious, and made tho ground smile around them
with good crops of the choicest products, with which
Uieir table wa* supplied. Col. Kiriin has followed up
thoroughly what they did, has entirely renovated the
buildings and grounds, made numerous addition*,
and iutioduced all the practical improvements of a
modem watering-place, while retaining tbe substan
tial comforts of a home. Tbe following bill-of-fare of
our dinner will illustrate the character of what is fur

day.
When we add that the vegetables were all Ire h
from the g rdens, the meats of the best, the cooking
ouperb, by pro:eaaional cooke, and the wines choice,
it will be conceived, we thins, that ordinary loss of
appetite may be readily cared by a ride over tins
road and a dinner at the Vernon House, with, subse
quently, a clear Havana on the stoop, and the col
templutlon of an exquia tely arranged flower garden
front, and all the varied sights beyond.
All the hotels keep sail-boats and row-boats, and
good sailing and flshiDg spelts tho river is dottod
with them, mostly weli-paasengered. wji.le in somo
dx. James might have seen solitary boatmen wend
ing their way, and-au-forth, to catch somo treat or
something by themselves. The Vernon House has
au assortment oi boatmen, when gnests desire their
assistance. The bathing facilities are a desirable fea
ture of the house’s attractions. Those who do not
xnow their advantages had better read Ball's Jour
nal of Health, or the Aneodotes of Abemethy, or
consult Dr. Arnold, or learn bettor by experiment.
Then there Is a good billiard room, and a bar sup
plied with choice liquors, and floe grounds to atrol
through—the best ate ndanc# for horses as well as
geests—and a provision for every reasonable want,
.‘olonel Kirlin’s family remains at the place, and bo
visits there and personally superintends lt almost
daily*. If ,lri* absence the Indomitable Andrew, a
general favorite, has charge, and will be fonpd an
xcellent landlord himself, by permanent or transient
nests.
We understand tbe other hotels are doing a good
business, and when opportunity occurs we shkll pay
them the visit we had intended to devote a portion
of this day to. A brief took around the Bluff gives
os the Impression that the number of residents this
summer will be increased over last year. Many luve
already removed, some stayed all winter, and others
are rapidly putting their houses iu order. So enda
cursory aocount of our last and most pleasant visit
io White Bluff.

We believe the Haws never has c omitted a rep. rt
of the annual pic nic of the Ssvhcnah Turnrer., is
since the first one. The two infUtntu ns were eta il
in the same year, 1852, and the coincidence of (
temporary organization may have formed' a so:
band of union. The original membership cop'i :
of but a little cotorie of determined, energetic m
bat tbe association grew to be very prosperous. 1 -.
George Hemboldt was the firs’. President, and f.mo:.
the original members were H o. Phillip M. Russe 1,
A. Stiefvator, Martin Horberaotter, George Stti
Joseph Entlnger, Conrat Wolg'.nd, and others. T. i
war, of oourse, into.fered with this orgamz »tion, s
with all oilier*. It reduced its memoers and its r.
sources; but it still flourishes, and la resuming; 1.
old life.
The annual excursion this year was to Stik! *
piace, a short distance tip the river. The stean.wt
Jas. L. Stevens was chartered for the pnrposes of- he
party, and made two round trips, leaving Kxchai ge
wharf first ear'} in the loreuoon, sad sg&ia at i.ao
o’clock, tbo first lime crowded with psssergers, and
carrying a fair number on the second pstsage.
The Turners assemb ed at their hall, ou Bryan
street, early in the morning, with their ladies, and
organized fbr the procession. The following are the
officers of the Society:
President—O. Breves.
Vice President— M. Mueller.
Turn Ward—J. Salvrtberg.
Secretary—J. Glatuaar.
The following were the Committee of Arrange
ments: H. Sack, J. Kau man, Ch. Werner, J. Ssiis-
berry, F. Kolb.
The procession was headed by the Washington Cor
net Baud, and proceeded through Bryan, Whitaker.
Broughton, West Broad aud Bay streets to the boat.
Both trips up Were very delightful, the air beiug
pare, with a good oreez?, and the passengers all In
splendid spirits. The boat was tigged out with fl-igs
in gay style.
The groands had been thoroughly fitted up, all
rubbish cleared away, the dancing area cleaned, tbe
Turner machinery erected, and decorations put up.
On one of tbe most prominent of tbe grove of noble
live oak* was suspended the banner of the Society;
and across the principal avenue was hung a strip o ;
bunting bearing the words “Gut HxiL,’»the Gorman
motto of welcome.
The whole day was spent in the exercises peculiar
to tbe Tamers In their full variety, and although tlio
number in attendance wus aomewhat smaller than
last year, owing partly to tho surfeit of amusement,
exercise and excitement occasioned by the recent
fireman’s parade, we have scarcely, if ever, attended
aploasuuterpic-nio of the organization.
Tile athletes, especially, excelled previous efforts.
Mr. Salvesierg, tho instructor, is almost inimitable,
and his pupils and other members perform feats, of
jumping, with tho rings, on tjie parallel bars aud with
the horizontal bar, in forming the pyiamid, &c,
which are astonishing. Wj have never seen them do
bitter than yesterday. These exercises were inter
spersed throughout the day.
There were just daucers enough to fill the space
aligned,without crowding, and a great portion of
f*e time was spent in that exercise, old uud young
mingling together in tho amusement, and some ot
the most elderly showing that they had not lbrgoitca
their old tricks.
One of the sectioca of the programme con
sisted of an old German game oalled “Striking
the Rooster,’’ performed by ladies, blind!'ddod. Af
ter many trials, the prize was won by Miss Anna Ott.
There was some boxing, too. and various other ex
ercises by the wsy of filling for the warp of the reg
ular exercises; snd towards evea.ng there were sev
eral contests with foils. Mr. M. White, tbo guu*
smith, won tbe palm at this exercise, showing much
skilL
Mr. Muller bad charge of the refreshment depart
ment. an important one at a German ont-door festi
val. Cool lager aud Rhine wine were in great de
mand, and promptly supplied, whilo adjoining wa*
a lunch table- There was also a private emb, in a lo
cation osar the grounds, called the Symposium, of
which Mr. Qell was President.aud which bad a profuse
supply of viands. A la ge proportion of the visitors
however, curried their own 3iipplies, and pick
niched in carnret. As is characteristic of these fes
tivals, there were no inebriat'ou, ulthou^n the great
est animation and freedom of recreation.
Many who did not go on the boat wont out iu ct
rlages, and numerous prominent citizens were smo g
those in attendance, lion. Phillip &I. Russell, ae o:ic
■ f the original members, was a mnch honored visi
tor, aau the greatest aospitaiiiy was Bhown to stran
gers and gnests not members.
The band deserves great credit for their behavior,
and got much praise for their playing, Robert Low
Is leader, and W. H. Wobdhouse, second leader.
At about dirk the party broke up, the river vcy-
ngeurs took to tbe boat, aud the vehicular travel er-
to titeir carriages. The Stevens arrived here at half
past seven, aud the party, forming iu procession,
marched to the hall, beaded by the band, and there
dispersed for their homes, highly pleased with th-’ir
day’s recreation.

An adjourned meeting of the eolored Conservative*
of the city w*9 held in the Court House last sight.
Taere w<ts a large-number of oolorednaeu and a num
ber of oar most prominant wh’ta citizens present.
After some delay caused by tbs aotenoe of the
S cretary, Jackson Brand, the President, called the
meeting to order and stated that that lt was for the
purpose of adopting a Constitn ion and by-laws for
their government.
The mi nates of the last meeting Of which only the
News and Herald published a report, were read
and approved.
Tn© roll of member* was then called, after which
about forty new names were enrolled.
Henry Green on enrolling his name aald he would
Ike to oah the attention of the me sting to the fact
that tt was the first anniversary off the first Conser
vative speech in Georgia, which speech woe mode by
him In Augusta, aud that it was with great dl&telty
he was protected from mob-violence.- [Cheers]
The enrolling being cUnclud d, the CooaUtution
winch had been prepared, was read by the Secretary.
The constitution provides that the members of the
Society shall pledge themselves to support as a unit
the interests of tne Conaeivstive party.
The By-Liws provide that the officers shall consist
of a President, five Vice-Preaidents, a Secretary, and
a Treasurer; that tiie meetings shall be held on tbe
first Monday of each month in the room of the Ex-
oentive Committee of the Conservative party, in the
Exchange, which wa* kindly teudered lor the use of
the Society; that a quorum abail consist of fifteen
mombers, inclusive of officers.
The pledge, alter substantially embracing the pro
vision of the Constitution mentioned, concludes with:
And we farther pledge ourselves to a&e all meins to
secure tbe c ucation of our children, and a*k the co
operation of our white Conservative friends in all
our effort*.”
The Constitution and By-Law* were put to the vote
and adopted.
A motion, requesting the various city newspaper*
to publish the Constitution, was adopted.
Another motion to publish the names of the mem
bers, was also carried.
A few timid men raised some objection* t) tbe pub
lishing of the names, but their voice* were drowned
by the enthusiastic cries of “Publish them,** “Let
the Radicals know who their enemies are. 1 ’
McNeal wanted the namts published, and said he
was not afraid, and wo* willing to fight any one of the
Radicals.
After speeches lroru Jackson Brand, McNeal, Fred.
Law, Secretary Hardee and others, which were filled
with the warmest wishes for the saccess of the Con
servative party, the meeting adjourned.

The Hebrew Fair-Decorations, Ac.—
The fair, under the auspices of the ladies of “tbe
congregation cf Boat Briih Jacob,’’ opened mod
brilliantly at tbe Masonic Hall last night.
The attendance was large. The tables were beau
tifully decorated and heaped up with a variety of
every article that could tempt the eye or please the
taste.
We had the pleasure of visiting it, but our limited
space forbids us frpm giving as full a uotico as its ob
ject and attractions deserve.
As the visitors enter the door, they are attracted by
a mass of evergreen, which, on closer inspection
turns out to be fu the shape of a well curb and i9 called
Rebecca’s Well.’’ Inside this are two young ladies,
ihe Misses Meyers, who, like Rebecca of cJd, gavo
water to the'weary and thirsty, and distributed re
freshing liquids.
In the centre of the room arc four tables forming
a square, beautifully decorated and covered with
fancy articles. Among the most noteworthy, la a
allken quilt containing over eight hundred squares
which waa worked by a lady eighty-one years of age.
There is also, a neat piece of work consisting of the
Ten commandments’’ in Hebrow characters,
worked in a perforated card-board. A number of
nlegant engravings, statuettes and other beantifal ob
jects are to be seen.
Mrs. Abram Minis, Mrs. Ezra Moses, the Misses
Minis, assisted by a number of young ladies, have
charge of this table.
To tbe light of the door as you enter is the Post
Office, which with its its neat drapery and elegant
decorations, looks very much unlike Poet Offices
genera'ly. Its fair Poitmistrses is Miss Housman.
The feffuira of her office are conducted with dispatch*
we never saw the males arrive eo regularly. Their
departure was ol that order described by the poet,
'casting one longing, lingering look behind. 11
A little beyond tbe Post Office, Mrs. G. Brown aud
yj— Levy have charge of a small table, at which
strawberries and cfceam can be procured.
A row of tables commencing at the Northern end
of tbe ball, and extending around to the door, on tbe
Eastern side of the room, we will next visit.
Tbe first, under the cbargQ of Mrs. H. J. Housman,
Mrs. S. Byck.Mrs A. Amrain, aud Miss E. Einstein,
is a refreshment table, and filled with tempting arli-
c es. which one caunot well pa»s without partaking.
The next, a table for fancy articles, is conducted by
Mrs. Jacob Cohen, Mrs. Zacbarias, Mrs. T. Brown,
and Mrs. B Browc- The most prominent articles of
the hundreds of beautiful ones, is a large cake m ide
In the shape of a Synagogue^ The next is a doll, llfs-
size, called the “Metropolitan Girl,’ 7 in honor of the
gallant Metropolitan Fire Company. The members
are requested to call and raffie for it.
The “Art Gallery,’' containing a number of fine
paintings, is the next object of attraction. Misses
F. Abrams snd B. Hertz will be plassed to exhibit
h* Gallary to all who desire it.
The refreshment and fancy table, nnder tbe charge
of Afii B. Cohen, came next, and its attractions
caused all to Unger awhile. ■
Mrs. Wealow, Mrs. Hertz, Mrs. Dzlinskey, and
Miss Fannie Cohen have cha ge of tne next table, on
which is arranged any nnmber of beautifal article*
Another fancy table ie next in order. A quantity
of silver plate attracts most of the attention. Mrs.
Rosunfolt, Mrs. Josephs, Miss Bosenfelt, Mis. Brady
are the managers.
An elaborate display of refreshments on a table, un
der ths management of Mrs. X. 8. Faltoa, Mrv. A. M.
Hart, Mrs. L. H. Sfaeft ill aQd Miss Sbeftall, is nest.
On this table are fonr steeple cakes which ore much
admired.
A lwng table, oicr w^ich is a sign baayinff the He
brew characters 'called Kosher,’ meaning $nVe and
good, and underneath it, the word Sapper in Ergllsh,
is the last. This is tbe sapper table. The sign is
appropriate to the character of the supper and table.
Mrs. ilohenstoin, Mrs. P. Solomons, Miss Bosch. Miss
F. Cohen and Mias Kwelecka have charge of affairs.
We wish tbe ladies (he most abundant success,
and call upon our citizens to liberally aid them.
Visitors u ast not toil to visitthe art gallery, where
they will be amply repaid by vlewtfig the many rare
