Tbs ladies enjoyed the excursion immensely, end we would advise other Indies to talk to their lovers, brother* and husbands oo this subject, and tell tbem that they will not go home till tbsy first "go a crabbing."

BATHING HOUR. A View from tbe Beach. Quilting our sanctum yaslardsy morning, we slrollsd around some of lb* hotels sod found tb«m quit* deserted. We understood tb* caese, however. It was bathing hour, and all were enjoying th* swells and h£eak- ' era of the briny Atlantic, it wet not long i before we found ourtelves standing -on the ■ verge of what might have been a wstery , grave had wa chose to plunge ourselves | beneath th* rielog billow. Tbe scene before us wa* neither picturesque oor grand, but amusing and ridiculous, except so far as there was merriment among the bathers. Th* first person that attracted our attention was a middle-aged fomsle, weighing it about two hundred and thirty pound*. „ Cautiously sb* walked out to tbe, water indicating, at every step, u fesr of beiog tumbled by a taucy wave. See! a breaker ii coming! Auoty trembles, and with mouth wide open, eh* prepares to take a long _ breatb, when tbe sea breaks npoo her fullt breasted, aod over she goes, uttering a j „ shriek a* she makes a splash, and falls lw- ' 0 neatb tb* see. Men rush to tbe reecoe, j r Op sb* is raised, puffing and blowing, terg ribly affrighted, declaring that she has 0 swallowed a gallon and a half of water. ! Again we look. W* see a lady, one of the e independent order, who declares that sbs j never needs the support of a gentlemen. y She is a beautiful bather. One moment w* s watch ber viewing tbe heavy breaker ai it j ' j. rolls ioward, aod than w* see her plnnge s beneath ita swell, and rie* io triumph jntt beyond It. In another moment "she twims ; ' k like a fish and fioits like a feather," "th* . admired of all admirers." Another icen* j r presents itself. A Mist is conning a / j bath in tba water, a little more than ankle j j deep. A lady friend, farther out. attended ! , by a gentleman, sees the lone timid Miee, ; i j end harries to her. Now comes an iotro- ■ ' l| dnction. Miss Junes is mad* acquainted ! ' , with a Mr. Smith. Although either party j ] * do not look particularly inviting in their I n ley-colored garments, yet there is u s " Soft blue eye, j < j That looks et If It bed epeo'il Bret la hravra, I , ^ Aad sought Its brightness frnia the seraph's gasa." j . Mr. S., who is btndsome and preposess- ' s ing, resolves on a flirtation, (a common t resolution at Cape May, yon know.) They are seen edging ont. A ware approaches, aod Miss J. feigns alarm, end flies into Mr. j t 8't arms. Sbe is tenderly embraced, of t coarse, and then commences a flirtation in earnest. Who knows wbere it may end? r Looking in aoother direction w* see a faf male, with arms uplifted, shooting aloud j j for hslp. Tbe secret of ber shoots are, a f t young man ie playing fish, and swimming , under water, and has caught har by the ( , tiny feet. Hbe suppose* it a "man-eating t , shark." Walchl There is a lond roar! A f j mad billow is near at hand. Some are terri- . fied before It, and stand aghest, while others lsngh at it* fury. A Teolonisn, resembling ; a Isger-beer barrel, is preparing for th* on- | t set, jnst e* It breaks and tnmbles bitn heel* , , over bead. In a moment or so he recover* hi* footing, jnst in time to receive the power of a yet larger eea, which strike* | htm pell-mell, and dashes him sffaiost a hail dosan damsels, and down thry all go. All attention is paid to tb* fair maids by 9 bystaodtng gallsnlv, whils ths lsger-baer ' t barrel is left floundering abont like a ' - woended porpoise, until hie situation U 1 considered precerioos, when he is rescued, f amid tb* applsot* of epectstors, end ad- ■ 9 vised by some precocioas yoalh to go in i r tearck of lager-beer and prattelv. This incident hud scarce eccorred, when w* beard an agonising (brisk that chilled oor very I > blood. A man, who had jnst been boasting f _• of hi* «u(fanor power as a swimmer, has , j ventared far ont beyond bis depth, and, oo , endeavoring to come in ie seised with tb* ( cramp, and i* about- sinking a* be cries "Help!

Th* stnrdy, gal- 1 lent oarsman that are io lb* lifo-boal* not ' far away, take their oarv, and as they make 1 a strong pall, a long poll, aad a pall alio- ' gather, tb* arcitemenl among tb* bather* sod on tho bench is heightened.

He sink* lb* second ' ' time, and then wa hear the cry "He'# ' ' gone!" "Poor man!" "Wonder if he ba* a mother, a wile, or children."

The I | City of the Seven Kings hps poised j I away, and io iu stead rites the Mecca uf j | all devout Catholics. Pasting through the gate, you enter !
