The Philadolpliia 3faritimo Exchange have just completed the erection and fitting out of a now reporting station at the Gapus of the Delaware/ from which point tho movements of vessels will \>g irhni/jdiately tclogr«plicil to tlieif rooms in Philadelphia. The Station is situated about 5tX> feet from' Capo iicnlopcn Li^h Giouse, on tho top of the highest sand-hill in tho vicinity, und stands about eiglit ieot above the level of tho j sea. Although built on looso sand ex-*! prised to every gale that swoeps the coast j ~ for there is no-shelter of. any' kind — ? the building, constri\ctcd ontirtly of j wood, stands as firm as though built up- i on a rock foundation. J. J. De Kinder, of Philadelphia, is the designer and constructor, and hasj in a novel way originated by him, mudo the loose sand tho ; very agent which hold* tho building 1 firmly anchored. The structure forms a frustrum of a pyramid, is 20 foot at baso and 12 feet at tho top, making rooms and a cellar, and is surmounted by an octagon watch towor,' 10 feet high, 1 covorud with a conical corrugated iron | ; roof.

A fow feet from tho building Btands tho signal pole, a mast J00 feet long, , sunk 20 feet into a well built of timbers, to which it is braced, anchoring on tho sumo principle as tbo house. A large ball, six feet in diametor, and painted black, hangs *uspondo<l at tho top of the mast uiid can, in clear weather, be ! scon a distance of fifteen miles.
