The Hotel da Crawford is getting vary popular — two more boarders this week —now having four regular boarders. Tho weather during the past week has been unusually warm, the thermometer ranging from 89 to 95 in the shade at noonday. A man was brought from Woodbine to jail on Wednesday last, having been committed on a charge of threatening to kill his wife. On Saturday last a Cape May Justice committed Win. Bhields to 30 days in the county jail, for drunkenness. "One more unfortunate," Friend Lyons, at the Mayville Hotel, is making preparation for the boat-race to-day and the excitement will be great.

Fire at "Long Bridge' -one and onehalf utile above Soaville Station- Wednesday afternoon, caused by a spark from the locomotive of tho afternoon way train. The long dry spell has, we fear, damaged the corn crop of this county to a great extent. Much of the early corn is ready to "set" and needs rain now in order to save it. At the Baptist Church on Sunday morning, July 4th, Rev. Alfred Cauldwell will preach a sermon upon the "Conversion of the Young." Let there be a large attendance. Advices from Petersburgh say that the thermometer at noon on Tuesday stood at 100°, and yet the agricultural ware-house of Tbad.

Co. on Thursday, and from the facts there brought out we are hilly oonvinoed that there has been no fraud on the part of the Secretary, F. L. Mulford Esq. We shall publish' next week an account of the meeting, together with the figures. A slight accident occured on Wednesday afternoon last in the stable yard of L. Wheaton. While & load of grain was being unloaded one of the horses attached to the wagon managed to get over the tongue and for a time it was feared would ii\jure the other horse. By unharnessing the animal he was gotten up and the damage was slight. * On Friday evening of last week as a lady was coming down tho Shore Road, just above the stone bridge, Bhe Btum-

bled and fell, ix\juring herself internally. The fall was caused by the outrageous condition of the road, and it strikes us that it is pretty near time some move was made by our citizens in the matter of fixing this man trap. FIDELITY REWARDED. Our worthy friend, Mr. Daniel Focor has received in all $175 for his bravery in sticking to his post when his train ran off the switch at Wenonah a few weeks ago, thus avoiding a serious accident. Or this amount $25 was presented by Mr. McCreary, and the balance by the other passengers, whose lives he no doubt saved. Mr. W. Garahty, called on us a few days ago with "Lewor's Patent -Safety Valve for Lamprf," and after a careful examination of the merits of this little article we are satisfied that no family can afford to be without them upon all lamps in use. The explosion of a coal -oil lamp is so common an occurrence, and the loss of life so great that we are glad to find this little valve so effective in its work, and yet so simple that it is easily understood by any one, and it can not get out of order. Our advice is buy them at once. The Holly Tree House, kept by Mr. 8. 0. Todd at Townsend's Inlet, is now open for the season, and Mr. Todd informs us that he is doing a good busi ness already, and has arranged an at • I traction for the next week. On Monday next, the fifth inst., Keighly's Cor net Band, of Vineland will arrive at the Holly Tree and remain one week with their families. The hand numbering 20 pieces, is one of the best in the StAto and those of our County readers who fail to hear thenf will miss a rare treat. During the week the house will be pro vided with ice cream, cakes, and other refreshments and parties will find it a good place for an evening's entertain ni en t.

Centennial services in memory of Rob't Baikes, the originator of Sabbath Schools, were held at the Palermo Bap-, tint Church on Sunday. Addresses were made by Bevs. K. G. and E.

The church was handsomely decorated for the occasion, Twenty -five buildings are now finished and in prooets of erection, at Ooeau City; next week work is to be commenced on the extension of the Narrow Guage Railroad from Atlantic City to Somer's Point. From the latter place passengers will be transported by steamer. At Petersburgh on Tuesday evening, Rev. I. N. Wilson preached a fare well sermon prior to his departure for Kansas ; in losing M*. Wilson the church loses a pastor who has proved himself a " 'net^ v V ' We are needing a good rain very badly. We were visited by quite a severe "blow" on Tuesday night. Saturday and Sunday will be quarterly meeting. Rev. Mr. Hill will give a fine oration in the grove on Saturday afternoon, and on Sabbath morning will preach in the M. E. church. The people are busy getting ready for the celebration on the 3rd of July. Friday afternoon they met to trim the stands etc. We expect a grand good time— come one, come all, and bring your city cousins. One of our first class carpenters, Mr. John Evans, has gone to Ocean City to superintend the erection of the large

hotel there. The proprietor is a Mr. Smith from Long Branch. At the last sale of lots the amount realized was over $15,000, and it seems ' that they are bound to push the thing through ; it is said that there will be over 100 cottages erected before the Camp Meeting, which begins Aug. 6th.

Tho young people were entertained j at the Bay View House on Friday evening in a manner pleasing to tho lucky ones who were present. — " • Destroy the wobs on the ends of your fruit tree limbs ; some of them contain hundreds of worms, which if left alone, will eat every leaf from the tree upon which they are found. It is better still to kill the bright colored motli that is the parent of the worms. It is now in order to be ready to answer these questions : "How far k it to Cape May? Which is the best road?" The former inquiry is readily answered, but the latter is a conundrum not 'quite so easily disposed of. Take which road i you will, you will wish before reaching Cape May City that the other had been t taken. We have in mind, and shall soon f 7 write for the Gazette, an incident of a cruise in a government ship. The title will be "Lifo on a shoal," and the main point of the article is the wreck of a whale ship upon a small island in the Pacific ocean, called French Frigate Shoal, and the rescuing of the crew by j the U. S. Ship "Lackawanna." The boat race is the topic of interest now. It will probably come off on the third of July. Let there be a fair field and no favor. — For a good cool drink of i water take a trip to the Bay View and try one from the deep well sunk on the premises. You jfmy at the same time take a dip in the Bay, enjoy a pleasant evening and get home in good season. Said one of the young folks at the "Bay View House" to your oorrespon dent, " Do you think there is any harm in daneing?" While the individual interrogated has his own opinion upon the subject, he passes it over to the readers of the Gazbttx. The suty'ect of amusement for the young people is one

rf gr**l del u**j, ftud in it* consideration much wisdom tern perate judgment. It k no credit to any plan* that a legally called meeting for the consider etion of public basinet* is disturbed— by persona who Should, one would think, know better. If the individuals ware boys, there would be afreet outcry, and, no punishment or condemnation regarded as too severe for them, but when man do these things, not much k said, and less done, to check such wild and disgraceful doings. On Friday last the Metiers Boffe, of the Bay View House, entertained a large party of their friends at a "House Warming." There were about forty or fifty persons at dinner, and they showed by the wsy in which the meal wss eqjoyed that house warmings were to their liking ; your correspondent was one of them. The day was fine, the host hospitable, the dinner first class, and the company pleasant; these elements combined made up a day of social enjoyment long to be remembered. The snake story, in last week's Gazette, reminds us that the whole family is rapidly growing smaller ; it is rarely that one is now seen hereabouts, and we are almost free from them. "Let them go, and joy go with them." The scientific, poetic and utilitarion interest in snakes all vanish, with most persons, when one of these creature* glides aoroas their path, and the field is generally left clear to his snakeship. We have a snake story, as was told by an old man--^-^ar'*~ — repeated a* f. i -j i*uj ...«h their teeselated teeth, are doing much dam age to the planted oysters in this vicinity. These pests can crush the young oysters with ease, and it is only a question of time, if their depredations oon tinue, when the beds will be destroyed. They are working the most mischief among the Ilog Island plants because these have tender shells. The oystermen say that the Chesapeake oyster is proof against them. A neighbor said a few days ago that his loss had already reached hundreds of dollars. As a preventive bushes are being stuck up bayward from the exposed oysters, and ; some rig up wind-mills with a simple uoisy apparatus attached. H. _ « MILLVILLE NOTES.

Timely Hixts to Tbosz Fokd or Oceam Bath i so. A New York paper says ; As this is the season when arrangement are modes for summer vacation*, a word of advioe may be of service to those who are seeking the sea-shore. If you don't wish to run the risk of becoming deaf, take a handful of cotton along with your thin clothes, and when you go in bathing put plugs of cotton in your ears. This may save you trouble. Dr. Samuel Bexton, Burgeon-in-chief to the New York Ear Dispensary, in a recent communication to the Medical Recoed, estimates that a thousand people of this city are sent to their physicians, to be treated for ear diseases, every year, whose trouble has arisen from getting water in their ears while bathing, or from catching cold at such times by exposure or neglect.

It appears from the doctor's researches that salt water is peculiarly irritating to the delicate structures of the inner ear. Very cold water of the freshest kind may, however, be equally harmful. and there is a short list of cases resulting from the Russian bath, two of the patients being themselves physician*. A few instances are cited where the trouble came from using the so-call-ed "nasal douche," water having penetrated to the ear by the )m usage from the bock of the mouth. But these are unimportant compared with those where trouble has come from salt-water bathing. In all of sixty-five of the last named cases inflammation occurred .- in fiftyseven it was acute. A variety of subsequent damages may accrue, when the trouble spreads : permanent deafness is not among the least of these, and life it self may be .endangered. Surf i nit hers are especially exposed to such ii\juries, since a breaker may striko ' them on the side of the head and drive the water into the ear ; the same result may ensue if the bather gets a sudden mouthful from an unexpected wave, the' water then being forced through from the mouth to the inner ear. Man. the doctor thinks, is not naturally am phibious. Animal* fitted for aquatic - life are provided with various arrange ments for keeping the water out ; seals, for instance, have a movable membrane in the ear. which closes, and shuts out fluid ; the muscles of the water-shrew are competent to shut the ear-passage*. People who are blessedjwith very small openings to their ears run the least risk in bathing. A ninn should never dive, say* the doctor, if he wishes to preserve his hearing. When in the surf, he should take the wave on his chest or hnek, "closing hi* mouth and nostril* though how a man can close hi* nostril* the doctor does not state. But the pledget of cotton for the ear* is casetitial, and every bather should be provided with it. 1 Festival at Sosh! » ^ ♦ A Festival will be held in the grove In the rear of the M. E.
