Cape May Improvements. ?!' j At I-ong Branch the bluff is high, and | the b*acb reachrJ by flight" of steps. All the hotels facj tbe sea, and e»ch hat a nice | paviliuo near the edge of the bluff facing [ the sea. lietwre^ie bote! la mi and these ■ pavillions there is a good road, from 30 td ; ! 50 feet wide, along which, in tbe afternoon j and aboat du«k, the brilliant equi|Wg- and j hired carriage* roll alnng*in full view of th* j lounger* on ibe lawns. porcBet and pavll- | Ions.

Here, but Tour | holels f»ce the beach— Congress Hall, Co- j lumbia House, Old and New Atlantic, and | each i* carefully and exclosively guarded j : against the other by dilapidated wliiu- • washed piling fence*, aud horribly sandy ! , road*. The l*wn. which i* on a level with j j the beach at llie Colombia llotHC^ £raduj ally rises into a bluff of ii-ipectajirtgifineii- ; I slon* at Congress 'Hall, and ujfaiii reced** j i i to a level at the olJ M"unt Vernon grounds. ; At Long Branch, the beach is soft earn!, i j here, if is generally hard. At th* former, j there is no beach driving, here, there i». i In addition to the driving on the beach, i | whirbvery often is poor frnrn high tide*. If 1 would be quite an improvement if a drive I waa opened commencing at the Columbia j House, between the L'avilion and the Hotel, running along opposite the Nnr and Old Atlantic. Unities, and across tji- lawn of Congre«* Half, aad opposite the proposed new hotel near the old Mount Ver- ' non ground*. This project wnnt+pi*r ike ! Ocean Hon«e.a front on tbe beach. An. - i other Improvement can bo more easily ac- ! rompHsbed. Some order should ■ be enforced as to the consirnctjon and 'focal inn ■ of bathing houses. What n "di*gnu-eful-looking huddle of pig-pen atjle of architec- -- lore are jumbled together at the foot of Ocean street, near the Columbia, and up along Decolor street. There is plenty of room at t ho foot of Ocean street to bare . tanged tb*&e«eee along wach stda of'th* " street, leaving about 50 fe»t for tha earriage way. As ii i* now, a carriage cannnt turn rouud in the nasty little crooked leer. * Moreover, it is an eye-aore. If (tenple will not build decent-looking bathing bouses, let tbe city eofotce an nrdinaoce banishing v them to Poverty Beach, or anywhera put 1 of the reach of ordinary vision. lest an if \ hundred or so neat-looking b»th.hou-et be

built and rented for ft moderate sum, for j | the Season. Oelt season would settle the j , fate of the rickety, tnmble.down looking ] ««t of miserable sbanlie* labeled bsth- j houses. Let some enterprising citizen Con- j str et a hulf-dosen or dossut light, airy j bath-house, oo wheels", nhd instead of the j trouble people experience now in uudressing aud dressing Tor the bath and driving | the beach, and back again, an iaficite 1 aoorce of trouble, one may step into a ' batb-boote at the cottage door, and disrobe oa tbe way to tba beach, step out into | the water Instead of cntting ooe's feet in j the bol sand, aod return in the same man- ; ner. These house* ought to be Constructed 1 in a light, cheap manner, with venilimi blinds and a perforated floor, so that the water might rWstlily run off. If the ezperi- ■ mrnt was found iocnovenisct or imprncticable, they could easily be tnrneil Into permanent bath-houses, ready lo he moved j I off in fall, whec tha high tides come in. j _____ J TA Drainage Mjstcm. If we no not make seme better provision ! : for cb-ansing our streets, and carrying off 1 I the filth j£d offal.Bgxt AUflUnar. Oban mbJ j have bail during tbe past season, we may • i confidently expect a visit from Yellow Jack j j in lo'W. Something must be d no to put down tbe dust and stench that ran riot , wheu tbe season was at it* beighlb. We j must bare water carts, aod dirt carip, aod u amall tax tnighl bo levied for tbe|r maintenance. There is soim thing, indeed, of a mora permanent nature needed ; but. until tbnt lakes place, we mast insist on scavengers and water carts. _ What we want of a permaneol nature is a good system of drainage, and nothing it easier nf accompli-hmenl. Cape . Island seems to be pecoliarly favored la every respeel, and in nothing more *o than thi«. Here i», within a very short distance of the " hotel*' and cottage*, a creek ebbing and flosiug twice a day. Into this might be drained all th* Bllb and garbage of oar hotels and cottages. All tbe trouble consists 10 laying tbe pipes— and what is thai ? Nothing. N" fear need Be entertained of | tbe filth aeoouiolaiiBg in the creek, since it could be more «»»ily removed tban the docks are dredged io Philadelphia, while it-en>atd pfty-err inttBy to d# H lor life' trainable manure it would produce, (bat it would ' ' eoet nothing to remote it.
