Oa Wednesday morning, at aix o'clock, the steamer Kennebec left Philadelphia Cube Island. There was aa excursion aboard of eboal a thousand peopla — lbs whole under the auspice, of tb* Soott M. K. Church of Philadelphia. Tha whole ' thing wax ao ontrageoo. swindle. Over two baodrvd more tickets were sold than the boat oould accommodate paweagtr*. 1 and the aafortaaites were left upon the wharf swearing aod execrating church i people ia general. Oa tba boat Itself tba < light waa ladicroae ia tha extreme. The tout entemblr resembled a prison-ship ! rather lhaa a pleasure boat. Maa, women end children were parked ia lika wedges. Stirring around and enjoying the scenery waa a laxary not to be thought or. There waa not rough (pare room ia the boat to , allow of the eahio being cleared so aa lo 1 eel Ike table for diaaer. The engine, room, the ladies' cabin, the decks, the ' bar-room, tba Sag.pole, the emoka-atack, aad lbs paddle boiee were one man of , aeelhiag, disappointed, mulinnos, end unhappy individuals. Ia the book cahio the pastor of the ehnrcb, who accompanied j hie Book, held a abort prayer meeting ; . while forward, the seen played cards, aad < the woman wriggled because their legs ! cramped and went to ilaap. All this lime the old tab of a boat wee slowly ( making bar way down tba' Delaware. , Twelve o'clock same, aad tba party ware I oaly abreast of Delaware City.

s Soma of tha party ncoer left the boat; a other, aqoat'ed oo tha beach and sullenly r nibbled their luacheon, wjtile a great a nomber eitbar walked or were*driTea to y the Island. • They only had two hoara to ' r remain, and in that time they mgst obtain 0 something to ear, and get a look al all e the eights. 'Twos fun lo look at them, il bat 'twas misery lo be one of them. The , fatigues of the day bad pot all in an ill t humor, aod their remarka upon ths dreaa , ( that could be expressed. Al lest the | „ time for return vre« at hand, and tba plee-eare-oaekera were packed like saydinea in j the hacks end burro d beck to (be boat. ■ . The carriage containing the minister , , passed us, einging " Vain, delueive world , „ of woe." We thought their world of woe, if plainer expressed, would poiol in the oeigbborhood of Cape Island. Be- i , tweca eight and nine o'clock the boat I , started on her return trip. There was I j not enough covdr for all on board, end | 1 nearly two hundred persons were on tba i j deck; exposed directly 'to tha weather I I Tbey bad barely been gone an boor, when j a most terrific wind and rain-Horm arose, a which muet have deloged the unfortooetes , . completely. Ob my ! If we had beeo no i , that ill-fated atcemer we think the cap- I ! tain would hare been assassinated To 1 bring such a jam free or coal was an oot- I , rage. But when the poor creatures bed I < j to fork over the cash— literally pay for 1 , their mieery— the joke becomes little too < . practical io its bearings. | ' j The boat reubrd Philadelphia in the 1 1 , morning, having consumed the entire I ' I night in making the return trip. The 1 ' , time should have beeo made io six boors, t If some oil company, ao asscciation of 1 , Shakers, or a band of Mormons bad had ! 1 l charge of such eu excursion, wa should 1 , not have wondered ; but when e leading ( i church in a large cilyjends ita couoten- ' I anee to such ao imposition, it makes us 1 pause aod tbiok. j ' 1 Carx Mar Lrrrxas — It ia astonishing | < tha anbje ct-matter that Cape May for | | oishes to all our great dailies.

Cape Hay Diamonds. All the old editor* to Cape Island | have at one time or another honted din- I monda on the celebrated diamond beach. : They bavo bail 'them cat nod polished, and kept tbem ever afterward at a soave- I air of their visit. The diamonds found | here are of all sites, from a small pea op to a walnut. They rank from nothing in value up to one or two dollars, ooe bell ' an inch tube being worth about fifty cents, j Previous lo this year, the largest Cape j May diamond ever f -uort use about" the ' size of a ben's egg, weighed nearly a half a pound, and was exhibited at the Great a wonderful curiosity. Tbe largest diamond ever heard of was found during the | present season, near Newcastle, Del. ! It ie now oa exhibition at iKe jewelry I store of Mr. ,1. 8. K. Hand, who gavo us dimensions yesterday. Iu weigh is three pounds fourteen ounces, six and three-quarter inches long, live locbee wide. stone, perfectly clear, and writceo be distinctly read through it. ! Without doubt us one of the most won- i derful natural curiosities id tbe eoaalry. j aod (houid be arm by all who take an I in precious stones. There are | I old-estnblished stands ou Gape Island I Uscotling and polishing of Cape May j I diamonds. The oldest is Mr. Hand's, on street, end the other is Mrs. Alex- j enders. oa Washington street. We paid \ visit to the establishment of Mr. Hand | yesterday, and were most delighted, as •ell as interested, with what we there I witnessed. There were all shedea of dia- i | moods, glistening white, yellow aud ca1 romgorum in color. They were hand- , | aomaly set io pins, ear-rings, finger-rings, I store is a complete apparatus for tbe cutting end polishing of the stones. The I diamonds are cut ibrouge^ihe agency of a I | eteel or leadoa wheel, epuokled with i cod afterwards polished with tri- J poll oa a block tia lap. Tbe operalioa , ! for cutting ia exactly like the proceee for , | cutting genuine diamonds, with (he ex-j-ceptlop of tha dod use of diamond dost, rn preparing ins diantOfid fur (liudiug - and poliibing it it mounted on tbe end of | { narrow stick, like a pen-holder, through | tha agency of diamond cement.

Mr. Beth Chambers, a native of thie State, haa accumulated quits a forluoe by tbe 1 j sals of Cape May diamoode io tba rough. ' { A further coaaidaratioo will ba given lo j l this interesting subject in another ieeue. 1 Oil va. Stiver, i Tbe question ha* often been pat to ! " Doe* oot the present excitement lb* subject of 8iiver Mining bid j fair to rival that of tbe Oil fover, and ; ultimately to prove aa great a failure?" : We answer " Yea, utiles! our people 1 determined not to learo wisdom by experience." Now that tbe madness I of the boor has- passed, and we look ! calmly on all the circumstance* r. Uting to Oil Speculslioni, we cannot wonder at tbe retail. We have only to glance at the records of the Conrtl of Pennsylvania to find that the greater part of the failures ara to be attributed to direct frand. Men offered at an enor price, aod with the most false representations, properties costing tbsm bat a triflo. Parties were found eager to take tbem; confident of buiog abls to sell enoueh stock to maka them whole on their investment, retaining onongh to pay themselves handsomely should the enterprise prove a success one nied oni-eighth tbe judgment or caution In baying Oil properly or stock that ahould be oied in an ordinary tranaactia^ involving the same amannt of mofiey. Now we ha^e strong hopes that inch wlldneas has been completely cored, and wc would "Tanlion onr reader* against too- much credulity on tha subject of Silver Miuing. Where there ia a substantial property offared for sale, wa will Bud an entirely different manner of conversation from that which designated tba Oil Swludle.
