B. Huffman, K*q. ha* *o far recovered a* to 1 be able to ride out. We hope to tee him attending to buaaineaa again in a few day* i A. J. Steelman of Millville is still kept busy handing down goods to the scores of Cape May county customers , • who are aftor the best goods at the low- , e*t price*. 4t. W infield S. Hand has completed the school cenau* and informs o* that there are 180 children between 5 and 18 in (bis district ; an increase of 4 over the lost school census. ♦ % C. G. Mills k Son, the popular painters, have gone to Seaville Camp ground to paint the handsome new cottage of Capt. Aaron Hand, which is a sufficient guarantee that the Wol'k will be well done. We are prepared to furnish very fine lithograph crayon portrait* of Garfield, Hancock, Arthur and English at the extremely low price of 10 cents apiece. Call and see them; then purchase your favorites. This is the season when those unfortunate members of the human family who are sobject to "hay fever" are wandering around with a pocket-full of handkerchiefs and eves the color of • strawberries. Xlessrs A. Benezet k Son hnve in course of construction a handsome wagonette for Col. Sawyer at Cape Xlay. The fact of this job being entrusted to their hands shows that they have An enviable reputation as carriage builders of the first order. Bro. G wynne, Jr., of the Sr shram headed a lively party of Salem Indies, a few days ago, in the quest of the rare lilies in our Woods town "lake." — Regis ter. Oh, Rob I who would hnve thought you could be guilty of such a thing ? Friend Slump informs us that he sold on Tuesday 116 excursion tickets from this village to Cape Xlay City, beside a %)uinber of single trip tickets. Those of our neighbors who think the Court House is of little importance should "put this in their pipes and smoke it." Our esteemed friend, Capt. Win. Ross, infoims the people that he has sonic valuable bargains for those who will call. He has been in the business a good many years and realizes the true value of an advertisement in his local paper. Give him a call and thereby patronize those who ask you to. A young lady in this township, who lias been married a short time, lately told a "bosom friend" that there was only one thing more astonishing than the readiness with which N 7 gave up smoking when they became engaged, and that was the rapidity with which he took to it again after they were married. "The members of the Bel ridere Social Club returned from Cape May Court House, Saturday evening, where they spent a most profitable Week. They caught any amount of fish, but owing to the scarcity of ice, could not bring even so much as a scale home. They speak in exalted terms of their trip and the pleasures participated in." — Bklvidkre. Daily. The long talked of regatta came off at Cape May City on Tuesday last with the following result : The first prize was awarded to the A. XI. Harris, consisting of a massive swinging ice pitcher of silver. Second prize, a silver tea set. to the Minerva. Third prize, a superb silver life boat, gold lined, to the Lillik. Fourth prize, a silver ice pitcher ' and cup, to the Rover. We are sorry to announce that Mr. E. B. Learning has left for Trenton where he will continue his law studies in the office of Judge Buchanan. XIr. L, has been an indispensable participant in nil that ha* made Court House life lively this summer, and we hut *peak the sentiment* of all when we say his departure will be a loss to the community. Success to him wherever he goes, is our sincere wish. A party of rhiUdelphians, who have been vacationing at the Pierce's Point Hotel, came over to the Court House on Monday morning Inst, much "befuddled by tanglefoot." They proceeded to the Koyer Bay club house and undertook to fix things According to their own particular liking ; broke up considerable , furniture, fastened on to n keg of beer and reduced its contents, drove the cook away from the kitchen, devoured the food sf»e was preparing, broke some of the glass-ware and carried away the balance. When the member* of the club returned and found what had been done they resolved to visit the depot and bid the rough* nn nfleetionate farewell in the wav of a thrashI

ing, but ivbsiT tb« time oamTib^ictte^ nature assorted itself and they wen < content with some vary strong talk, and the party escaped without injury. Crawford Buck, an aged subscriber, at Goshen, write* us that he remember* the war of 18)2 a* well as though it wo* but yesterday. When the war broke out bo wsi a boy of nine year*^ and he gives us some of the event* ho reraem her*. In March 1813 the English squad rou appeared in the bay. It consisted of one 74 -gun ship, the "Poictieres," commanded by J. P. Bereeford ; the frigate Belvidere, and several other vessels of war. I remember distinctly seeing the fleet at anchor between here and Cape Henlopen. In May of the same year a West India vessel laden with oranges, attempted to "run the blockade;" being cutofifby the "Belvidere," the captain ran ashore at Cape Island. 1 saw her in the surf and the people were gathering oranges by the wagon-load. At this time the Island was a barren plain with but one boarding house, built by Thomas Hughes. Be- 4 fore the movement in defense the English landed twice ; 1st on the south side of Fishing Creek, where they drove awuy some c-uttle belonging to R. Edmunds, the next time 011 the north of the creek and drove away 80 head of sheep. Soon after this a regiment of soldiers arrived and encamped on what is known as the Tyndule farm, where 1 took great pleasure in watching them each day. A few days previous to this the English burned a vessel load of wood which was at the shore. About this time au artillery company was volunteered ; they equipped themselvej^ and were commanded by Lieutenant Townsend. When any of the vessels came too near, the battery4 'spoke" from the top of the hill and they understood at once that they had better leave tbe beach or fight. At one of their landings they left two men to guard the boat, both of whom ran away. I knew them both very well. .. TUCK A HOE NOTES. We understand that Miss Martie Steelman is expected home on Saturday. Messrs. Lynn and Jonas Steelman have returned from their trip well pleased with all they saw. Xfrs. Randolph Marshall, together with Xfr. and XIrs. Capt. Belford Smith, are stopping at the Chalfonte, Cape May, for a few days. All the people are busy preparing for "camp," and the town will look quite deserted while that is in progress.. Go and take the family along. On Tuesday last several left this place for Cape Xluy to attend the regatta. All I have soon had a very pleasant time, but the anticipation far exceeded the reality. One of the largest parties from this place started early Saturday morning, expecting to return that eve, hut were storm bound and the next day at noon came sailing up the river — with a jolly crew, notwithstanding adverse winds. Last Sabbath found rather a slim attendance at church as a goodly, number were at Ocean City. A in«>st eloquent sermon was preached in the morning by Rev. J. Wood of Philadelphia. A Baptist brother held forth In the afternoon, and in the evening Rov. E. Lake. _ Delta. DYER'S CREEK ITEMS. Great preparations are being made for camp meeting. Seh. Congress, Learning, for X. Y. with 5000 watermelons. Sch. E. L. Morris, .WiUrtts, cleared for Wilmington, Del., with caneerine. 'Yacht Mattie Holly, Howell, for Del. to loud with corn for parties at Goshen. The yacht Ada C., Montgomery, stopped here while on her way from a southern port to Brooklyn. XIr. S. L. Irwin, of Xfillville, has been spending a few days at this placo with his friend, S. 11. Errieson. We would say that it will not be amiss for the overseer of the highway trt repair the road known as the "Little Causeway." At any rate it should bq so that an ordinary high -water will not make it impassable. Some of our worthy citizens who thought it worth while to visit Cape May on Tuesday are quite sore over their disappointment, and they think that the Phila. editor* and reporters had better see the presidential candidates next time, and not report hearsay anymore. A young people's moonlight excursion, on board the yacht XI at tie Holly, will take plneo this (Saturday) evening. The point of destination ha* not been fixed upon, but will probably be left , to the discretion of the captain ; as he will bo obliged to take into consideration the wind and tide. A person calling hi ra*olf"Sig- Abline*

gave an entertainment at this place one u veiling la it week, and one of the au- j diiJiMc in commenting on the affair «U<1, "Oh, it was the greatest sell 1 ever •aw." We regret to say that about thirty such persons were sold at the same pri*. as the one referred to— they went two for a cent apiece, we imagine. Don.

On Monday afternoon Inst a fire was set, by the locomotive, above Millville which burned for 2 or 3 hours, destroying a large amount of young timber. A report has l»eon in circulation that the Camp Meeting at Pit mini Grove had been broken up by the small pox — upon, enquiry we find this to he entirely false, and that there is 110 sickness of any kind there. Quite a numtar of suits have been brought by the Xlillville Ins. Co. against parties who refuse to pay the assessments on their premium notes. As a general rule, however, the assessment i* Iming j paid. In many cases there Js considerable loud talk by the female portion. S. Notice.
