This new bath has been visile I by a number of gonilcmen familiar with the bulbing establishments of New York, who pronounce it far superior in interior accommodations and purentss of water lo any ihlnu of the kind in that city.

The Bath is moored L0 feel Irotn the shore, and has a wide pathway leading to A. The Gentlemen's Bath is 57 feet ui the clear, 4 feet ft inches deep, the water as pure as any part of the east river. On one side of the Swim minff uh is a lame Shower Bath. Surround- ing the whole are forty-five dressing moms, which visitors lock and unlock at their pleasure. There are alsu five Private Baths, where persons can bathe unseen if they please.

The Ladies Bath is in a separate and distinct apartment, free from the noise or disturbance of the Gentlemen' Bath, and twenty by thirty feet and four feet depth of water, having dressing rooms, each appropriately numbered and a Private Bathing Room. At the entrance isriuile a large drawing room, a woman constantly in attendance, and every thing about it seems well plannednotonly for theconvenienceuf ih but. if tilts expression, cal culated to entice Ihem. The whole is covered by an immense ennvas, to ward olf the heat uf Ihe itin upon the bathers. This superior Swimming Bath adjoins the Fulton Ferry, and ii open throughout the day and evening.

Nelson Shook, physician, of the city of New York, was arrested for participation in the exposure and abandonment of the child, to which we alluded yesterday.

He also refused to disclose who the parents were, but said they lived in Massachusetts, East, and held out the impression that they were of consequence there.

Pub. should be given to this affair, as it may lead lo the discovery of Mr. Reed and the entire unravelling of this whole villanous affair. Dr. Shook was committed by the examining magistrate, and subsequently bailed by Judge Vander-bilt.

Paup iabopi on FAkMs. The New York Morning News makes the following remarks on the attempt to make pauper labor available on RanJall's Island, which is owned and cultivated by the City of New York ialianil ennt lini lGOaerPs the soil is a clayey lom, and susceptible of very high cultivation. Mr. Leonard, about the middle of May, placed upon this tract a number of Alms Mouse the direction of a careful and Heady man as heal foreman the proper farming tools were furnt-hed a yoke ol oxen, lour nor-ses and thirty cow comprising the stock. The most encouraing re ul have 'hits far followed this expeiiment.

It is, perhaps, too early lo speak yet with confidence, yet sufficient is already shown to indicate that this neglected spot may become a source of much profit lo the cily. The fences and walls have been repaired, the building rut in lenablc order, and Ihere are now growing upon the island eight acres of potatoes, and about half that quantity of corn, both of which promise a fair crop. This has all been accomplished by pauper labor. There are about twenty ac-res in grass which will also be cut and housed by the same operatives. A m-siderabli quantity of cherries have been sold, and the Uniry is now furnishing about three hundred quarts of the purest milk per day to the children the Long Island farms.

Theie nn- now engae 1 in this agricultural enterpri-e about 13 paupers of both sexes, many of whom ive been quartered the city for years, and living off Ihe public pore, yet who now earn moru than a livinu, and some of them nl least $1 a day.
