He seemed to think it rather suggestive to wind up on a "Hand organ" and raonk- — The Episcopal Church is to be dedicated next Sunday. There was a general cry of indignation on Friday evening when the company sitting on the piazza found their glorious sunset greatly obscured by this growing edifice ; but they were quieted by hearing from one in authority that, sooner or later some building would go up on that spot — and the cliureh was certainly preferable to any other. — Sunday was a perfect day, clouds keeping off the intense rays of the sun and making the atmosphere so cool and pleasant that a fan was superfluous all day. The church service* were quietly ei\joyed — a word is not amiss for the Pavilion Choir, led by Mr. Mac Kellar of Philadelphia.

It has been published that the Cranbeny crop this year would be very large, lhat there would be more than an aver- 1 age. We consulted a number of extensire cranberry growers on this subject, and they all agree that the crop this year will be short — not near the average. One reason given, is that the , plants did not bloom until late, as plants ' that bloom after the first of July never matures, The fact is a large crop of Cranberries this year is not to be expected. — Ocean Co.
