Mr. Lewis Wheaton spent moat of last week in Philadelphia. "How doth the little' tater bug improve each shining hour." A wagon loaded with hay broke down at the depot on Saturday last. No one hurt. If ymi want good crops, fat pigs, heal thy children and a loving wife take the Gazette. Master Cleip Foster is learning the "mysteries of sticking type" in the Ga SSTTB office. The rain falls on the just and ui\just. But not on the man who has just stolen ^gir fin UElh*— nj% ** - * - — *" "U We understand that the Baptist Sabhath School will have interesting exereiae» m Amuloy availing July 4th. Bro. Magrath, of the "Wave," will please accept our thanks for favors offered during the past few weeks. J. B. Huffman, Esq., has been appointed by the Common Council of Cape May City to collect the delinquent taxes. Through the kindness of Mr. Morgan Hand, ye editor spent a few pleasant hours in the Sounds on Saturday last. Our friend Bushnell, at Deunisville, still continues to please his meny customers with fine shoes and good boots. Give him a call. The heavy rain of Tuesday last offered the small boy an excellent opportunity to play in the mud puddle and get whipped for spoiling his clothes.

No premium notes taken, or assessments made in4 any of the old reliable Insurance Companies, represented by James L. Wilson, of Millville. We hope our friends throughout the county will remember that we are prepared to do Job Pkixtixo in any style and at very reasonable rates. A girl in this township is said to have eaten a square of castilc soap to get rid of freckles. She still baa a few on her face, but inside she isn't freckled a bit. It is awful hard to believe that a woman is an angel when one sees her pick up a clothes prop fourteen feet long to drive a two-ounce chicken out of the yard. The handsome new yacht "8pray, "was launched on Saturday last at the Shellbeds. She was built by Capt. Gandy for Mr. Philip Ford, and is s marvel of beauty and neatness. H. k C. Soffe, of the Bay View House, Pierce's Point, inform us that many of their rooms are already engaged. They have a splendid house and we wish them much success. A boy can imagine almost everything: be can lug an old shot gun about all day without firing at a living thing, and be under the impression that he's having a howling good time. The "Wave" publishes a list of those gentlemen who have subscribed to stock of the Cape May Iron Pier Com pany, and evidently thinks this great improvement will be made. Can you afford to he without insur aoce, when your property can be insured at so very low rate, in good reliable stock companies by applying to James L. Wilson, Esq., Millville? The extreme heat on Sanday last prevented a full attendance at the Sunday Schools, but most of those who were absent op that account did not find it uncomfortable to "take a walk." I>r. J. F. Learning k 8on, Dentists, whoee card will be found in another column, are very busy. Those of our readers who are so unfortunate as to have the tooth-ache can be relieved by them. The Board of Freeholders met at the Alms House on Wednesday last, and pansed uf.on the bills presented, adopted several resolutions, partook of an exoellent repast provided by the matron, Mrs. hard, and adjourned. f Changes bare been made in the timetable of the W.

Index, our agricultural editor will be glad to answer any questions that may be asked through these columns. He is oue of the best farmers in Cape May county, and we think is authority in mat tors pertaining to the farm. James L. Wilson, of MUlville, represents the oldest insurance company In the United States. The Insurance company of North America was incorporated in the year 1794, and now has six millions of dollars, in cash, to pay losses. There was a good attendance at the churches on Sunday last. At the Methodist, the pastor gave an interesting account of the origin and objects of Class Meeting. There were many stran gers at the Baptist, on account of the yearly meeting and oommuuion. It strikes us that there was a great lack of courtesy in the refusal to choor the winning Voatat the landing on mon day last. It is of oourse to he regretted that our town was beaten in the race, hut a graceful acknowledgment of it would have made the defeat no worse. On the day of the race the yacht "Edna," Captain J. Buck, through an accident to her centre-board wosgroynd cd on a bar for three minutcr.and when she axain floated all the boats had noosed »- * * An exchange says doctors are busy complying with a law passed at the last session of the Jersey Legislature, and just taking effect, requiring practitioners ofrtud. cine and surgery to file with coun ty clerks a copy of their diplomas undo** a penalty of $25 for each prescription , besides being debarred from collecting bills for medical attendance by legal process. If your local paper happens to tread j upon your toes a little in performing its mission, don't get huffy and say harsh things about it but stop to take a long breath and think back for a season and see if you cannot remember some of the favors and kindness it has shown you and yours during the past. Then reflect that it may not be long before you will want favors again. Another exciting raco took place on

Monday afternoon last. The course was 15 miles long and the tsarting point Poor House Landing. The first prize was a handsome silver cup, and was carried off by the "Mary" owned and ! sailed by Capt. F. Downs. The second prize was a silk flag, and was given to the "Vinnfe Young," Capt. A. T. Gandy.

The absence of several very old people, who usually join in these services, was deeply regret ted. Pastor Caul well gave a limited' but interesting history of the church up to this the 108th anniversary; and afterward preached a sermon on "Raining Memorials for Blessings Bestowed." When tho yearly mooting of 1881 rolls around may there be a full house, made up of old aud young from all over tho county,' aud we are sure our Baptist friends will givo them a hearty welcome to the always friendly Court House. « # • » ' — UP SHORE NOTES. The people in this vicinity are re joicing over the first plentiful shower for along tixno; vegetation was suffering. 1 The thorraometer just before the rain on Saturday P. M. stood at 98. The numorous friends of Prof. Corson | will be pained to learn that he is very i sick indeed. He has been afflicted with i a long and painful illness, but eomo j weeks ago he so far recovered that wo would not have been surprised at any time to have seen him riding out, but several days ago the dropsy set in, and 1 am told bis physicians despair of hi# | a Ow t are enter tuition i.mt it ivdidoi cixws uie water, amd unless it takes the precaution to come over our bridges, wo may uecapc its ravages.

It is to be hoped that tho potato bug and the curculio they have not come to stay. Perhaps ifcthe Colorado beetle hod succeeded In going due east as they started, wo might havo got rid of them, ' but failing to bo able to cross the Atlantic ocean, they flew out'to sea as fur as they could and wero washed ashore in groat numbers, I have been informed, by eye witnesses. E. MILLVILLE NOTES. Festivals are the order of the day. Hon. John L. ftluupp has been serious. ly ill for several days past.

A Millville man has just rccoived$700 back pension. Our bicycles are thinking of carrying thoir owners to Cape May shortly. Look out for'thom. Our present rains will be a help to the blackberry crop, which will soon begin to ripen, as well ns prolong the raspberry season. Tho wheat and timothy of our follow townsman, Mr. Samuel Hilliard, have been almost entirely destroyed by the army worms. The Presbyteriaus held a festival on Saturday night last. Tho Foundry church occupied Mc NeaPs grovo at Broad street and Columbia avenue. Tho regular monthly children's meeting will be held in Temperance Grove on Sunday afternoon, June 20th, under the direction of Miss Ella J, Garrison. Vacation time is nearly at hand, and our citizen* are making up their minds where they will go for a summer trip. We would suggest the Mnyville Hotel, as a pleasant place. Cbas. G. Leake, Esq., has a valuable lay I of gloss eaud upon his farm adjoining the Buckshutem mill pond, from which large quantities of an excellent quality of silex have been taken. The regular Sunday temperance meeting was held in the Grove Inst Sunday, | for the first this season. It was conduct- | ! ed by Mr. Isaac Hank ins, and addresses were made by several young men. On Saturday afternoon last, during the heavy storm which ^"itcd this section, the lightning struck a barn at , Buckshutem, setting on fire and destroy- j , ing it, together with a horse belonging ' ! to Samuel Land, which was in the barn at tho time. "Tin t <• was a young man In Milwaukee, Who wiia so «»xrr*dlnKly gawky That he umd u lit muu h For to wind up till watch And lit his Clfnr with hki clock-key." Fit companion of the above is the wo man in Millville who, when getting ready for church on Sunday morning hist, attempted to put up her hair and fasten her collar with carpet tacks which had been left on the bureau.

Bank Examiner Magrudor of Washington bos taken possession of the broken National Bank of Newark. The Cashier will probably be arrested on his arrival Id Euroi>e. At the recent annual meeting of the West Jersey Marl and Transportation Company, Richard Grier, of Salem, was elected president, and T. Jones Yorke, was elected one of the directors.

On Wednesday our people wero engaged in giving the M. E. Church its regular summer cleaning. A splendid rain on Monday afternoon, and Tuesday, purified the atmosphorc and made it very much cooler. Ed. Thomas, after an abacnce of about 9 years, having been all over the world, has been paying his mother a flying visit. Baptism and the Lord's Supper were administered in the Methodist church on Sabbath morning last, by the pastor, Rev. Win. Zane. There is a young man in this ViTTage who makes himself odious by clubbing1 dogs and waking people up at all hours , of the night. "A word to the wise," etc. i

This Friday evening, there is to ho a thorough reorganization of the church choir, after which wo hope there will ho a better attendance on Sunday evenings. Zadok, the able Tuckahoe correspondent of tho "Star," visited the beach on Monday and whilo there cut his foot with an oyster shell, making him quite lame. The week-day class meeting has been j changed on Capo May Sido from Thursday to Tuesday evening, and wo hope there will be a bettor attendance in the future. • ■ ■ Capt Soiners Hand has brought homo two hnndsenne match horses, lie will take thom on the beach at Atlantic City and drive a hack during tho coming Hummer. Mr. Frank Godfrey and wifo, of Millville, wore in town over Sunday, as was also hi* brother, Dr. Ed. Godfrey, of t Camden. There was quite a reunion ut Mrs. Capt. Youngs. While a young man by the name of Harry McCan, from Atlantic City, was unloading iron nt Ocean City on Tuos day a bar of the metal fell upon him. killing him instantly. "• If those young gentleman who have no mojr6 rospect for a church or for | themselves than to spit tobacco on the ! floors and walls can he found out they should be dealt with severely. By this time next week the Democrats say wi will know who is to ho our next Prenident. Your correspondent is tinj dor the impression that they are labor1 ing under a mistaken notion. Time will tell.

What with the parade and other attractions mentioned elsewhere, we expect to have a glorious Fourth. The next consultation will be held ou Monday evening next. Rev. Wm. Burley, a former resident, but now stationod at Haley ville, having been very ill for some time back, spent part of last week, and this, in Tuckahoe 'rusting up." On Sunday evening he ' delivered a powerful exhortation in the M. E. Church. He is a most devotad and earnest worker, and we hope his earthly career may be a pleasant one at all times. The cry of "mad dog" was heard on the streets on Sabbath last. The animal having crawled under the Post Offioe was killed by Mr. T. Clark. It was afterward found out the dog belonged to Mr. Banks at Jf*nuinu*kin> *nd having run a deer from that place, wo* tired out and went under the Post Office to rest. He freely drank water when offered to him. Dxlta. THE SW.ING OF THE PENDULUM. Tho saying that "Revolutions never go backward," sounds wiser than it really is — like a good deal of the proverbial •* ** -r »•« win atari the * uuels oaexwa'd. There is law of moral, as well as of physical, gravitation. This country has known some back ward -going revolutions, in religion, politics, habits and fashions. The American tendency to "overdo ' tiling*" would have landed us, heaven only knows where, but for the law of reactions. Our grand-parents overdid the matter of hard work and grinding economy — leaving a line of descendants that have no constitutions to speak of, hut are "living on the by-laws." The present swing of tho pendulum is toward Huch a luxury of living, and such coddling and cramming of the children, to neglect of industrial and rational training in habits of honest work and selfhelp, that we bid fatr to produce a generation of dependents : as if a whole nation could Utw >it Its wits 1 The numer- ! ous proprietors of suddenly and easily- - I 1.1 ItJ At. - _l!i. 1

acquired wealth overdid tho glitter and show business during and after the war: and wo are only just cmcrgingfrom the consequent period of depression and bankruptcies. Railroads are so good a thing that we outstripped the world in building thopn — and leaving them unpaid for ; and the present indications are that wo shall repent the folly. We havo erected palaces for our criminals and castles for our lunatics : piled up 1 showy warehouses and scores until the I rents hardly pay the taxes and expenses : and carried public improvement* so fur i that the municipal debts of the country . would bankrupt a people with less recuperative power. What is true in the** larger ways and wider fields holds good in our socialand domestic life. The fashions of building, of living, of dressing,— of amusements ami recreations,— of working and pluying and voting — have undergone chances that show how uncertain are our stand- j arda, and how certainly we run to extremes. Our fancies havo carried us from clapboard country palaces on "laml- | *d estate*," in pasteboard imitation of tho English gentry, to >hcltor-tentH» by the sea and log huts in the north woods ; from flashy hotels at summer resorts to tho disoomibrta and privations of remote . farmhouses ; from sweltering at home to being swindled abroad, in a hopeless chase after rcposo. Brown-stone mnn- J i sions, eighteen fact wide and seven stor- | ies high, "furnished" by the upholster in hopolpsa rivalry of stoamlxiat and gam- ' bling saloons, equipped with libraries bought by running measure, ami adntncd with art treasures purchased with , equal disregard of expense and taste, are just new succeeded by many-gabled and gorgeous-hued suburban cottages, ' filled with bric-a-brac collections that I mingle the variety of the nitction-rootu | with the attraction* of a museum : and | all in the name of "art." disregarding 1 the rigors of our clitnAte and the Condi J tions of real comfort ami privacy in | home life, dabblers in household decorations have introduced oriental curtains in the place of honest Saxon doors ; dipperv and noisy floors, littered with ! rugs, instead of warm and quiet-compcl* ling carpets ; furnishings whose age anil • ugliness are their only recommendations: and Oilier innovations which prove anew that change la not always Improvement. Doubtless there has been with all this a real advance in the popular knowledge of the truly artistic and becoming ] but it remains true that good sense take* the middle of the bridge — that good taete is a foe to extreme*.— Goi.dk v Rclr.
