To the unreflecting mind it looks almost incredible that this great Empire City, with over a million of population, was founded a little more than two cen- turies ago. In 1609 Hendric Hudson discovered Manhattan Island. The Island was then inhabited by a race of savages, and was an unreclaimed wilderness. In 1614 a company of Dutch traders obtained a charter from the States-General of Holland to trade with the people inhabiting the New Netherlands. It was some time after that a colony erected a few scattered dwellings near the present site of Battery Park, and christened the settlement New Amsterdam, This name it retained until the Dutch surrendered to the English in 1664, when the name was changed to New York, in honor of the Duke of York. The whole Island was purchased from the Indians in 1624, for the sum of sixty guilders, which represents about twenty-four dollars. Not until after the Revolution did the city begin to increase perceptibly in population. Then the establishment of peace, and the dawn of the nation's liberty, gave an impetus to trade with foreign countries, and insured a steady growth of population. The city is sixteen miles in length, extending from the Battery on the south to Yonkers City and Westchester County lines at the north, and varies in width from a few hundred yards on the southern front to four and a half miles at its widest parts, being about forty-one and a half square miles in area, or 26,560 acres, of which about nineteen square miles was annexed from the County of Westchester a few years ago. The first charter of the city was granted in 1686, by James II., king of England, and the second by George II., In 1730, which remained until 1827, when the Legislature of the State of New York granted another charter, which though variously amended, is still, in a limited degree, the basis of the existing law. Its commercial supremacy makes it the depository and sales-room of the vast factories of New England and the Middle States. Its situation upon the Hudson, the great highway of the Empire State, early made the city the rendez- vous of merchants and traders from far and near, the opening of the Erie Canal and the New York Central Railroad at grades but a little above tide-level, have been the means of pouring the products of our vast grain and grazing fields of the West in constantly increasing streams into our own and the markets of the world. With these advantages, and with nearly all other ports on llie Atlantic seaboard practically cut ofT from our great factories of the East and the grain- growing and grazing fields of the West by the natural barriers of our mountain systems, almost or quite beyond competition, wliat wonder then, with such a harbor open to the ocean, that our metropolis is the commercial centre of the world.

PATRICK'S CATHEDRAL, Fifth Avenue. CENTRAL PARK. Central Park is always a point of central attraction for visitors coming to New York. It is one of the most popular resorts of its kind in the world. It possesses attractions of such a varied character as to make its reputation a national one. The length of the Park is about two and a half miles, from 59th street to iioth street, and about half a mile wide between Fifth and Eighth avenues, and contains 862 acres. The length of carriage-drives is about ten miles, the bridle-paths eight miles, and length of walks about thirty miles. To see Central Park, to appreciate its kaleidoscopic beauties, would con- sume much unnecessary time and labor, if the visitor were not already familiar with the points of interest to see and how to see them. That this want may be supplied, the following places are noted as of especial interest : The Gallery of Statuary and Art, Flower Gardens, Museum of Natural History on Eighth avenue, the Terrace, the Belvidere Tower, the Mall, where music may be enjoyed ever}- Saturday afternoon if the weather is fine ; here, also, maybe seen the bronze statues of the Indian Hunter and Dog, the poets Halleck, Burns, Scott and Shakespeare ; adjacent to the Mall are the Play- grounds and Carousel, marble arch, and the adjacent stone ballusiered stair- ways, wonderfully wrought in animals, birds, vines and foliage ; near the foot of the stairwa}' is the lake and boat-landing ; in the centre of the intervening court is the great bronze fountain. Then, also, tiiere are the statues of Humboldt, Morse, Moore, Mazzini and Webster. The Obelisk, as a matter of course, must be seen and admired. It stands near the ygih street and Fifth avenue entrance to the Park, and notwithstanding its great age and long journey, is as erect and symmetrical as a growing reed on the banks of the Nile. In fact it is a model of monumental architecture and proportion. The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Sybil's Cave are but a short distance from the Obelisk. There are many attractions in the Park which we have not space to enumerate . the visi- tor wiU meet them at every turn, and should any desire, any of tlie numerous park-keepers will give the directions required. 82 STREET CAR LINES.
