Fortunately for the prosperity of the pWe we hare little Or llo hpreu- • bill on in the common acceptation of the tiwm. TXioso who buy are generally Wllllag to take a folr advance on what they pay. Somo few gcntlcntcu are buylhg In all the unavailable bind In tlie market, which under a process of draining and nradlaa Ja rnnvurfod initPcHglMr lralhtlng sitea for hotels , and mttnpra, and Invariably aril for many thnes the amount they pay for Mm same, thereby not only lucrcosliig Uie value of all the property on which they have a legal claim, but all In the vteltiHy, and to a certain extent all property In the city. Prior to the time above mentioned building lots on Cape Island could bo pOn-luucd for a frnctina of the value at which tbey are now held. Even choice lot* on Washington, Lafoyrtte, Jackson.

Wcsfpf Congress street and In the neighborhood of Mount Vernon property could have been purcliaacl'threo years ago at prices even lower than either of the I above figures. Now the same lota in the former localities Are sold from 82,800, a|IWard, and even as high as $5,000, while in the western portion Uiey range from 81,200 to $2,000, Lota on the Yorke mud Miller elates adjoiningthe city, whlcli sold a few years since at !. $75, 8100 and $300- each, now bring ! from $600 to $1,800 each, j Aa an Instance of the many which are continually coming under our noj tree, we will mcutlou one that occurred | a few days ago. A piece of property was bought by two guutlemcn in this I city for the sum of $1,000. On being | cut into nine lots It was placed in the I market. A day or two after one of the j lots was sold for $80U ! Wlmn we look in tlie neighborhood of the new Stock toff Hotel, the advance In real estate witiiln the past year is for mote productive of astonishing result*. The march of Improvement .under tho leadership of Mr. John C. Bullitt, of the "Columbia Hotel," ho* encroached upon what wa* considered _ absolutely worthless marsh groundswhole squares of ocean front have been reclaimed from waters which heretofore sheltered the clam and muscle and furnished a home for the mud-ben— ItrecU have taken the places of the tiny inlets, and eligible building lots mqdc upon the treacherous mud-flats, and where the washing of the waves dejswitrd sand and sea-weed, a large and oostlv hotel rises In majestic grandeur. What has wrought these wonderful transformations and changes? What is it that has tendered thoseArorthlcs* shore lots so valuable and in such great demand? What has caused such an AdttBS In the price of real estate throughout tlic length anil breadth of the Island? The answer Is plain— oapltal and cntotjrisc, and the name spirit now that * Is thoroughly aroused, is goiug cm asM on, until tho place which was comparatively unknown a few years since will not only become the greatest summer resort of tho Western World, tat will sin become on Important sea-port town, with its harbor, thip-bulldlng and commercial We do not underrate its. past nor when wc advance the idea that Cape May is now In Its infancy, having thrown off thatwoddiliig-clothcs of old fogy ism, and struck out with the able help or capital and enterprise, leaving for in the back-ground the puny aitcinpti and aholhiw ideas of those who have too hmg exerted a stand-Mill if not a relrogadc policy over tho interests of the city.

Such people ( are the meanest specimens of depraved _ humanity which atl-wfte Providence I permits to deist on this cursed earth. — It it well .known that almost every person it sometimes disposed to speak _ evil of others; and tattling is a sin „ from which ray few can claim to be _! eotirelywxsmpt. But the object Of our present article It to fpeak of that distinct class of tattlers who make talees bearing Use constant basinets of their >d lives. ¥hey pry into the private of- 1 it- hire of eVery family in the neighborhood, they know the exact state of one od neighbor's feelings toward another; ad they understand every body's (hulls, irs and no little blander or misdemeopor tV- ever escapes their .vigilant watchftth ud neas. They are particularly well posted is- up c'vefy tiling connected with ty courtship and matrimony, know who :U- are going to marry whom, and can guess the exact time when it will take :r- place. They watch every movement on of parties stui^x-cted of matrimonial inen toot ions, and if their Is the slightest »d | chance to create a distuhonce, excite rsa jealousy, or " break up'' a match, they els do an in their power to keep people in or | a constant slate of vexation.

They belong to cs 1 all classes, and operate in all Wo of find tlwm the rich and the poor— "upc- per ten" and ttje " lower million," in id the church and out of it. They are at people who have no higher ambition lie than to be wMl Informed in regard to in other people's private* business, to re- !,- tall scandal to their neighbors, and exult in fiendish/ triumph over the ■j wounded ' -])■**•' and bruised hearts in of their infiOconi victims.

Tbey seem to take to . tattling from the promptings of a nat- . h ural instinct, and tbey prosecute it , 0- with an enorgy that would do infernal , si honor to their groat leader— the prince ;y of darkness himself. Our contempt is for such graceless creatures knows no g bounds, and wc can find no words in « which to express its infiuny.

A great display will be made of ankle and Slocking— clodted stockings of silk op lined ot title thread will tie the only kind odmissable for evening dress.

The dress skirt is now usually made worn iii wafm weather with a chemiserusse or white muslin or loco, or for* the street, with a C&aquc the some as the dress, or of black silk. But newer tlinn the Cosaque anif I more stylish as well, is an ctegent overgarment called abroad the "Skeleton.'' | It is Also distinguesed by the more j poetic appellation of the " Phantom" | — and the v«y phantom or spirit of a ■ mantilla it noma with its delicate out- « lines and slender' bands— the veriest nothing, the most transparent excuse for a cape— but so stylish— indeed its j stylithnes is its excuse for being— the little that it is. {observe in dresses . as iu bounds, toe smaller they become I tho more they coot- These mere shad- j ovs-of mantillas furnish base for the display of a great many yards of lace — these narrow bands are enriched with the most delicate embroidery. The modistes tell us tliat they are dear also because they ore difiteult to fit—that everything depends on the slope these ! loose bonds describe ; that toey must j over the shoulder— that they require "artistic handling," a phrase too modistes have borrowed from the studios—that is difficult to make they are r also "difficult to wear"— that they need a faultlessly fitting waist under them— that toey must be always re1 served for dress— ntglige being incompatible with their spirit and expression. All this and more about what con best be described as a princess bretelte with four or six shoulder straps and a basquine skirt exceedingly bouflant at the hack— '• only this and nothing more, " but it is the great success of toe season. Being a success, every lady will consequently desire to be provided with one at least If she limits herself to one we would advise that it be mode of black silk, as it can then be worn with any dress. Dot If she dnlns to go to the utmost extent of the style and have one for each dress she can do so at little expense, provided she mokes it herself, which she can cosily do by inch bond of the length required to go around too waist, line it with some stiff material stitch it on each side machine stitching on each tide will greatly improve its appearance. Now cut six bias straps of a length to reach from the middle of toe belt at the back to toe ends of the belt IB front— these must be of the same width as the belt and stiched to correspond. A few inches from the belt at ths hock a bar should cross under the straps to which they should be confined. A few inches couple also should confine the straps at the shoulders. None ore needed in front on most figures, but if they should be found requisite in front also they will have to be fastened in the middle with hook and eye. The skirt for this : is simply three broad ends or taba depending from toe belt nt toe hack, they : being united by graduated puffings of the material. These puffings form a kind of petit-pouier which gives the peculiar immra now considered elegant This skirt Is of no prescribed length but varies with the height or teste or general style of toe wearer. The whole may be finished with a bias ruffling, in which core capra of ruffling mark toe shoulders. It will be seen that the great difficulty in fitting toe Phantom is in the shoulder-straps— if ■ they are to loose they will bag-tf too tight, toey will breox. They WgUfrB that the material be cut on exact |bia*. and besides for their friltest perfection they require to be made on the Grorer A Baker Machine on account of Its peculiar stitch, which, with the utmost possible strength combines the highest degree of elasticity. By simply turning the material under side up s beautiibr embroidery stitch ran be formed, thus effecting at the same time, and by the same means the doable work of making and ornamenting. We spoke above, quoting from the modistes afa"foultlmoly fitting jraist."
