From your ter We clip the following notice of the famous Glen at Watkins, N.Y., from a recent number of the Elmira Dagy Adathiser. If there are any of our readers who have not yet visited this interesting place, we advise them to do so at once : This remarkable wonder of nature has now • become so widely known and is so highly appro. elated that it confessedly ranks among thetirst- class attractions of the country. The • number of people who are visiting it during this season is Morally immense. They come from all parts of the nation, though the States most largely represented are Now York, Pennsylvania and Maryland. Among the names on the register may be found almost daily those of men of well known prominence in the country. The Glen is thronged from morning till night, from one end to the other, and presents a scene of gaye ty and life which reminds ono of Niagara or Saratoga in the height of the' season. The neer proprietor, Mr. ranaosa, •• wider stall& his business.. By many improvements h has made the passage of the Glen comparative ly easy and perfectly safe. New and strong bridges and stairways have been added, at diffi- cult places iron railings have been, firmly fixed in the rock, capacious pathways have been cut out, - and every passible arrangement made for the comfort of visitors, and the bestopportu pities providedier .seeing the beauties of the Glen.
