No premium notes taken, or assess- • meuts made in any of the old reliable- • Insurance Companies, represented by James L. Wilson, of Miiiville. We were in error last week when we said that the special term of the Orphan's (^ourt would be held on Monday July 12th. It is to be held on Tuesday the 13th.

We have been favored with a copy of the "Daily Star" for 1880. It is a neat little daily and puts in just claims for a share of the support of Cape May City's residents. We wish Bro. Seigman success with his daily. James L. Wilson, of Miiiville, reprc sent# the oldest Insurance company in the United 8tatos.

Lower Township, 1 779 Oape May Point, 19* Middle Township, 2 575 Upper Township, 1 702 Dennis Township i* still incomplete, but is estimated at about 1,800, which would make the population ofiheoounty about 9,753.

That money should be kept at home ; Cape May is capable of producing more than she consumes and we cannot quite accept the advice of Horace Greeley, when he said, "young man, go west"; our advice is go to work ; we have flood soil and plenty of it, with a good market at our door. The same advice is applicable to our merchants. In looking over the Oazf.tte we find that the business men of Miiiville show their enterprise by advertising in our county papers, letting the public know that they are alive to the times, while the merchants of our own county fail to inform the inhabitants of Cape May that they arc prepared to supply home demands. Thereby a large amount of our money is spent with those more enterprising than ourselves. The time has com© when we should .get out of the old fogy way of doiug business. ►

_ M1LLVILLE NOTES. Tb« 4th puwed oW very quietly uj ] (bis city ond tbo churches ware well at i tended Mr. I. B. Mulford. of MfllnUe, And lii» son Dr. I B. Mulford of Camden, have gouu down the bay fishing hue ce«* to them. The glass-blowers' excursion from , Miiiville to Atlantic City took place on Wednesday, and we understand passed off satisfactorily . Master George, son of Alpheus A. Evans, has become insane. The cau*n assigned is going in to swim while his body was over heated. This is a very had case, the father having been de ranged for 7 or 8 years past, and the family have the sympathy of the town. The grove temperenoe meeting held on the line of the Bridgeton and Part Korrif R. K-, between Haleyville and Dividing Creek stations, was a success. There were 6 or 8 hundred people on the ground, — all orderly and quiet. Mrs. Nilteiunyer of Philadelphia gave a strong long and powerful address, and in the afternoon short addresses were given by Revs. Winnie, Bullock, and others. Thirty-five went from Miiiville. On Tuesday, P. M. as the fast train from Camden to Atlantic city came near the place where the Narrow Gunge Road crosses the West Jersey* Road, tho engineer saw right acroes the frock an engine and two ears on the N. G. R. *»"» JA • • * ft f' fror try u# *#op .. ovild probably have uecn fatal, so, quick as a flash, the engineer opened the valve and went through the obstructing train at lightning speed, dividing it in two. The engineer and fire man on the Narrow Guage jumped off, thereby saving themselves. There was no one else on board. TUCKAHOE NOTES. The schooner "Mar)' Rhodes," is being repaired and having a new bow-sprit put in. She is engaged in the wood carrying trade. Weymouth Township, has no colored people, no paupers, no rum shops, and but one foreigner. The absence of rum shop accounts for the absence of pauper*. Mr. George Ogden, of the firm of Ogden A Co. Wholesale Grocers, Market St., Philadelphia, has been spending a

few days in Tuckahoe. He is of pleasing manner* and good address, being liked by all who are acquainted with him. A brother of Mr*. Zune from Phila. came to visit his sister about three weeks since, remarking at the time that he had come to die, and on Friday last died of typhoid fever. He was hurried at Laurel Hill, Philadelphia, on Monday. Messrs Anthony Steelman, S. B. Jarmin, and Thomas Russel accompanied the remains from this town. a Saturday morning at Tuckahoe opened cool and oloudy, making it hard to realize that this was the day appointed for tho celebration of tho Nation's Birthday, a* the 4th of July is generally hot, dry, and dusty. The exercises were inaugurated by the ringing of the church bell at day-break. At half past eight o'clock the parade of the "Unknowns" was -formed opposite the Post Office, ar.d proceeded to march over the river headed by the Dorchester Cornet Band. Thomas Ruwol Esq., was the Marshall of the day and looked like a veritable veteran. The costumes of the fantastic* and their fiery steeds were well gotten up and would cause a smile to light the face of the erossest man. By 10 o'clock the grove in the rear of the school house was filled with people — men, women, and children — all dressed in their "best bib and tucker," with countenance which plainly sAid they wore out for a "good time" and they did not propose to go home without it. After the devotional exercises and music by the hand our friend Mr. Jonas Steelman, read the 1 Declaration of Independence in a moat eloquent maniier. J I is articulation is gx>d, his expression perfect, ami we can safely say that we never heard bis rendering of the Declaration excelled, and satdom equaled. After the band played another of their choice pieces, S. B. Jarmin, Esq., introduced the Rev. Mr. Livesly of English Creek, as the orator of the morning. Said one of the greatest enemies of this nation was the growing tendency to disregard all law. referred particularly to the running of Sunday trains ami ©xeursion boats. We should not vote for men for the legislature who would not pledge themselves to support the Sunday laws. He touched upon Presidential candidates, saying they were l>otli good men.

The chuff attraction j was a fine display of fireworks which the committee had arranged at oonaiderable expense. Later iu the gvening there was a magnificent display of pyrotechnics at the residence of Batnuel died man, Esq., at Champion's Landing. 8o far as we know there were no accidents of any kind to reoord, and the 3d of July, 1880, was a day long to be repembcrsd as a happy event, by the peo pi. of Tuckaho* and vicinity. — . — *•» i For the Gaxsttv.

Look well to your pork barrel. In this climate there is a vast amount of pork "tainted or rusty" and in many 1 1 cases it arises from not being packed in

a proper manner. Even if put down • . property it requires a great deal of^ttare : to keep it good and sweet. It i*fW >»c , packed in g barrel that is perfectly clean, none but the best kind of coarse salt should be used in packing, and plenty ! of it, the pork slioulct be well cooled beI fore laid in the barrel, it tnust always he kept under the brine, by having a weight kept on it all the time, and the pork barrel should stand in n cool place. If after all tlieso precntftion* the brine should show anV sign* of taint or rust it should he drawn oft' immediately and boiled, removing all the impurities by skimming, and it will do to put backor. the pork. Be sure to keep the pork covered with brine. We clip the following from the Boston <!i obb: "An immense army of rivals to •'King Cotton" is coming to the front, and his former claim to grout riches seems to be warmly contested. First, the sheep, cattle ami swine show that they are worth more than double the value of the cotton crop ; then the hay arop offers to buy out King Cotton and have 30,000,000 ton* to spate; and now there comes the loudest sort of a cackle from the poultry yard, for somebody ha* calculated that the actual cash value of the jxmltry and eggs raised and consum Oil in this country, amount* to over $500,(KH),000 or three times the value of the cotton crqp. If any one feel* inclined 1 ! o dispute these figure* he can go to work and count up the egg* and chicken* for himself." Profoaor Uomstoek, the entomologist , of tli* Agricultural Department, after a visit to Delaware, where he investigated the army worm, ha* just made a report, in which he say* : The adult insect i« a night-flying moth of a dull brown rnlor, marked in the centre of each fore wing •vith a distant white spot, and with an • xpan*e of wing of a little ovor an inch , ^nd three-quarters The moth de!>n*it«» her egg*- in fold* of leave* or gra*< or grain, nearly always concealing them from sight.
