It seems to mo that a very few years have effected a great change In the character of the visiters at Saratoga. It is now ofa lighter, gayer sort. Even the dance seems to have become more airy and less seldom than it used to bo. When I first frequented Saratoga, “flirtations” wore less frequent, love was a serious matter,'and many a happy life of affection began where we now stand. The old Congress Hall promenade is'a sacred place with me; and I prefer it still, for the sake of those associatiohs.. Stand with mo by this pillar, and I will tell you a love story. It will bo ten years next month, since I stood hero as wo now stand, with two friends. How well ‘I loved them! The one was a young man, my friend, a senior in Princeton, passing his vacation before commencement, at the Springs. The other was a gentle girl! There is none here like her, none half so lovely. I should incur the severe condemnation of,soma fifty ladies, to whom I bow each day, did they know that I am. the writer of this letter, when I say that I never saw ai Utile.

Her tool fell ns lightly on the dafpet, (as Longfellow said of Pro; cioso,) “as a sunbeam on the water..

' That song haunts this spot on which wo stand. X linger flero in the night to listen to it. We stood together that night, having escaped the crowded ball room* and by this very pillar, my friend and Lr exchanged the words of parting which arc opt to be exchanged between those who love; It was an ordinary parting. No tears, nothing but smiles. Ho was to return to Princeton, attend com* mcncdmcnl, return to the Springs, and they were to go to Niagara together.
