Jr «e* could lure the weather to our llktac, there I* little of It, perhsp*. that we thould not order quItedUTerent from the u«ual aupplT. if we may nae the term. We are arldom contented, and. indeed, according to human Tlewa, the . wratlwr la arldom in inch condition to draw from u» expreaaiona of aatiafac- . lion; it la either too hot or too cold, too wet or too dry. Not many daya ainre. fur the farmer*' aake, aye, and for our own aakra, therefore, we lunged to ace a good soaking rainfall; now we are long-, ing to hare it cease. While » e of the city may generally prefer brighter akW just naw, the farmer can aland considerable of this drizzle, while some crops are watering and others about to be planted. I.rt U hope that the weather may l>e truly good weather In some sens, in ite benefits to the rare generally, and

let ui murmur uot.

A OEXTI.LMAX who reads the Daily St*ii each day In the great Western city, Chicago, write* a friendly letter of kind word* about our l>aper, and then discusses Chicago aa follows : "Chicago Is a reasonably good summer resort, hut It lacks bathing, though It has a surf orcasiurally along the lake shore. My office overlooks Lake Michigan and makes a very pleasant place in the summer. There lias been a yacht race this summer, a dozen or so alooik riggrd boats participating, and It could be readily seen from when I am now sitting. Then I can look down upon that great lake front they are making such a time over just now aa thcpriv per place for tbe Worid'a Fair. There is no doubt of the convenience or accessibility, but It don't strike me as a' desirable place for such a great event. It is a long strip, comparatively, bnt Is no wider than Congress Hall lawn. So J ou see It would not give much chance >r nutting up attractive buildings and landscape gardening, which added so much to the Centennial ground*. But they projHitc taking In some of tlie lake and thus w idening it. I suppose it la possible that the Commission will get down to work alter the warm weather, but the present condition of things regarding the preparation and arrangements for the Fair is disgraceful. to say- the least, all because the affairs an- mixed up with politics of a questionable character. Well, wait and

The Hudson Datif Ennius Xnt* of a recent date publishes one of the most Interesting and at the same time most truthful letters from Cape May it has been our lot to read this season. The writer treats of onr elegant location, our standing “before the war,” refer- ■ ring mainly to Southern patronage; ‘•exclusiveness" of the place; its native and summer population; the beach; the Prnaldent’a cottage; the whole concluding with the following “Wall of the Watering Places:” “The same wall goea up from the Cape May hotels that la beard from all the waterlog places throughout tlie land—■Scarcity of young men !' Plenty of belles, hut no beaux ! While there are many young men here who would be regarded aa a ‘splendid catch' by designing mammas, they don't take to the bait so ingeniously attarhed to the lieau strings. Mornings after breakfast there is a ‘right smart sprinkling' of natUlydtesard young men lounging on the S iazzas. hut before noon they have rifted off in throngs to tlie fishing grounds or athlrtle sports, leaving the belles n> amuse themselves aa best they I may. When evening comew, with its enlivening music and tbe hops are opened, tlie youug men art again conspicuous by their absence, pud the maidens must l>e contented with dancing and waltzing alone by themselves, or playbig the part of -wall flowers,’ now and then, perchance, catching on to a little urchin in Knickerbockers. "The absorbing question of the season Is: ‘Where are ail the gallant young men. - that whilom added life and splnt arid interest to every watering place • Echo from beach, mountain and spring, only answer* 'Where?' ”

The question of placing pavilion* upon our strand for the convenience and comfort of those seeking the bathing ground* during the mid-day bathing hours, has given rise to much comment, and brought out opinions that vary both aa to the character and style of shade that would be best, and also as to the real need or not of having them at all. Those who believe them to be necessary generally agree that there Is but muproper location, and that is upon the strand itself.' just beyond the ordinary line of high water. A* has hem noted in these columns, some favor the erection of wooden structures, others the use of tents, and not a few would prefer to see a large umbrella (latent utilized. Ami then, while the discussion is pending and nothing done to bring the matter to cjusutarnation, Mr. Samuel Wiley, to a partial extent, solves the problem by placing large tents upon the strand abreast of his bathing establishment, under which hi* (utrans and others may •lounge secure from the mid-day sun. But now we And existing here and there a few who object to even this Innovation, who declare that the placing of any structure* whatever upon the beach U a dangerous thing to permit, because It will lewd to an Increase in the number, and thus present an obstruction that ought never be endured. Now, whatever are we to do, anyhow ? For our own part, we think if -every listhlng boose proprietor can afford to follow Mr. WBey's example and will do so, tbe whole problem wBl be fully solved and no harm to anybody or anything result.
