in the morning the thermometer stood atWdeg,
la ibe shade In the city. A glance at oar In.
stroment recorded but 74 deg., and the highest
point attained during the entire day was
76dfg. If this fact was not sufficient cause for
a feeling Of relief, your correspondent Is quite
t a loks to know what would be, What with
OQ'J ?l)deg. of beat, and a gentle, refreshing
breeze lrom the untainted sea, and numbrless
nooks and corners wherein to hide himself
ftwy. one finds life quite endurable here.
The genial attractions of Cape Island have
duly impressed that portion of the world who
re in the habit or lrequentlng it. Although
that vague and indefinite idea represented by
tbe words "the season," Is not yet fully deve
loped, Cape Island la both populous and lively.
Congress Hall.tbeColumbiallouBe.andtheother
leading ettablishments, are better filled than
they were at the corresponding period of last
ye r, while the cottages have their full comple
ment. Among the latest arrivals of note. I
found at Congress Hall the Kight Reverend
3.W. Beckwith, Kplscopal Bishop of Georif,
tt a v Rinvfins. member of Congress from
Hew Hampshire, and Hon. T. W. Ferry, of the

These gentlemen, and the ladles of their fa ml
lies.tufflce to give the island an air of distinc
tion, to -which is added that quite as important
feature, the nlghest development or fashion, by
bnn'ireds of persons of note In the social world.
O fl Saturday evening lashlon had full sway
n.d swing. It was the occasion of the first
nop" at the Columbia House, and was In every
Vespeotan entire sucoess. Tbe elegant dining
loom wasorowded.and the evenlDg passed In
thoroughly enjoyable manner. Mark Hassler
Officiated as master of the ceremonies. Hassler
la the musical personage of the whole Island,
saving excellent bands stationed at Congress
Hall, the Columbia House, and the new Ex
cursion House. On Balurday evening next, a
grand "hop" Is appointed to transpire at Con
TTnii ihn nrraneements for whioh. already
In progress, will tend to render it an event of
great eclat. By that time there will doubtless
be twice fti many people at the iiotels
ivierA nnw are. and every element
of tnccesi will be at hand. The culmination of
the sjolal ei Joymeuts of the summer, nowever,
Wi;i be a grand carnival at tbe Excursion

no e-.n.nRB or trouble will be lacking to render
it the most attractive and brilliant affair lu the

But what are all these fleeting Joys compared
tnthomAliiinrr of the ocean liself? Indeed.
When one looks on at the desperate endeavor
Which rtir women and urave men mase to

It Is not without a measure of astonishment.
But perhaps tbe whole system is excusaoie on
the grounds tliat a safety valve of some sort, Is
needed whereby the surplus activity and energy
Imparted by the air and water of tbe ocean may
escape. Be that as it may, there Is room for all,
and each one can Bclect the dlvertlsement
Which suits him best. Omikron,
OUR ATLANTIC CITY LETTER.
That Otber "City by ue Sea" A Surrey
of Its Capacities ad Comforts Notes
by Way oi tbe Oowawtrd Trip.
Irom our own Correspondent.
Atlantic City, N. J., July 11.
Escaping from the heat and dust of the city,
and taking the 2 F. M. express train on the
Camden and Atlantlo Railroad, your correspon
dent formed one of a pleasant party bound for
this 'City by the Sea." As It had been some
years since we bad travelled over the road we
were prepared to see some changes In tbe face
of the country, but hardly as many as have
taken place. The embryo towns and sparsely
settled country of a few years ago, have been
wonderfully metamorphosed by the opening of
the railroad, through the facilities It has since
afforded, presenting at onoe a picture of pros
perity, thrift, and beauty, as we whirled rapidly
aloDg. Lands thought to be almost undo for culti
vation a few years ago, have been made to yield
abundantly, by successful drainage and other
proper treatment well known to farmers. And
there are yet large quantities of land along tbe
line of the road, waiting for some of our enter
prising citizens to render equally productive
and profitable. As places of residence we should
much prefer tbe thriving towns of Jersey within
a short diHtance of our city, to hundreds of
Western towns through which we passed dur
ing the last summer. We cannot help wonder
ing at tbe seeklDg of homes in the far West,
When tbe East, taking tbe facilities of markets
and otber advantages Into consideration, pre
sents equally as great inducements.
After a rapid ride of two hours up to schedule
time we Ret foot lu Atlantic City. Before we
reached this pluce a much more cool and com
fortable state of tbe atmosphere was clearly
perceptible. But once In tbe city, we were
very sensible of tbe fact that we could and
wonld be cool. As our rooms bad been pre
viously engaged, we were soon In snug quar
ters, and quite at home. In the evening our
party walked to tbe beacb, and In a short time
had (be extreme pleasure of seeing tbe moan,
Just past the fall, rise on tbe ocean. Tbe tide
was high, the breakers rolling In splendidly,
and tbe sight magnificent
The grandeur of the scene was snob, that one
might gate upon It for hours without becoming
weary. The mon-tema dancing on the
ocean, the resistless rush of tbe breakers now
driving n farther np the beacb, and again re
ceding the snow-white cap extending far out
to sea, the dl itant sail J ust visible to the sharp
est eyesUht, all made a picture far beyond the
reach ol the most skilful painter, and profound
ly lmproselng us with tbe power of the Maker.
Too soon the growing lateness of the hour ad
wonlshed ns that we must leave the beaulirul
Vision and further contemplations to a future
time.
Jn the morning, after a cool and pleasant
bight's rest, we burrled out and down to see
"Old 8ol" make his appearance over the brine.
In due time be showed us hie face through the
mist, all red and disarmed of bis fleroeness,
Boon dispelling It, we fancied that- he did not
.Vjte our imperllnenoe, for he gave us so strong
glance that we were glad to turn out eyes
way.
About 11 o'e'ock we found the bath to be de
lightful enjoyed by hundreds on the beach.
We are not at all surprised at the thousands
who leave the city, If It Is only for day, for
aocb a glorious and refreshing "dip." Here we
would remain for tbe f oa and enjoy our
selves to tbe almost, if it were not Ur the In
evitable dollars and cents. No employer of
large or small numbers of workmen
would fall to find j; profitable la
the end by giving Vem time, and even paying
expenses If necessary, for a day's recreation at
the sea shore. The workmen would be let
proved In ability. In temper, and In many ways
which would tend to promote the Interests of
their employers. The slight apparent loss of
time would be found to be really no loss. We
nope to tee some of our la ge employers trying
the experiment IMs season.
We are somewhat favorably Impressed with
the capacity of Atlantic city for the aooomrno
datlon of a large number of visitors. From tbe
full trains which we were Informed had been
running for several dvs, we opposed tbe
hotels and collages would all be pretty well
filled. But there anpeurs to lie no large crowd
at any place. While tbe season has Just fairly
commenced, and all the koui.es are doing a fair
business, there Is yet room for many more visit
ors whom tbe bot weather will undoubtedly
bring to the shore. Many have already er tfag6
rooms and :e expected Id a fow dev Thehlr
Is bracing end dry, the batblnj excellent, aad
tbe season, never more promising.

Tbe Washington spoolal to tbe Mew York
TYntrssays:
W AbuiNOTON, July 12 There Is much specu
lation regarding the attitude of the PreslUeut
aBd his Cabinet on tbe New York Lleruourallo
nominations, and numerous reports are In clr
culHtion (none of them well founded, however)
that a serlons olnaffeotloa exisu among Mr.
Johnson's advisers towards the Democratic can
didates. There Is no doubt, however, of the po
sition of Mr. Beward and Ueneral Bchoflald.
Tbey both support General Urant. Hecretaiy
Beward will probably take no prominent ptrt
In the campalKO. but his sympathies aud
countenance will be given to the Itepublloan
candidate.
Tbe same mav be said only In a more positive
degree of Mr. Evaru. the probable Attorney
General. As to MoCullouh's position, nothing
further la positively known than thai he utterly
repudiates tbe fluancial part of Ibe Dewocrallo
platform, and that he dislikes Seymour. Post
master-General Itaodall Is reported to have
declared for Graul and Uolfax, but authorizes a
denial of tbe report, and adds that be has not
made np bis mfud lo support either ticket.
lie states further, very significantly, that be
cannot oonaoientiousl.v support a repudiation
platform, or any caudldale with repudiation
principles. Regarding the much-Ulkitd-of laird
party movement, be says that It would fall, lo
asmifch as It would result In throwing- the !
tlon of President Into the House, where more
Is no third party, aud where Grant aud ltiu
are tbe overwhelming oboloe. Other members
of tbe Cabinet are understood lo ealerUe aluii

Important Decision.
Buffalo, July 13.--The following decision by
Judge Halt, of the United States Circuit Court,
on a writ of certiorari and habeas corpus, in tbe
notorious extradition case of Charles H. Baker,
which was argued by Messrs. Swartc and Bene
dick, counsel for the Queen of England, and by
Messrs. Fox and Parker for the prisoner, on
Friday last, will be important to the legal pro
fession: Judge Hall says that foreign conviction under
the statutes of the State of New York does not
render a witness incompetent, as the statute has
reference to conviction uuder the laws of toe
Stute. Tbe statutes of the State of New Tork
provide tbat a Governor or Leglslatare may
pardon a convict, and thus restore bis compe
tency. This would not be done in a case of
foreign conviction, bowsver. I am of opinion
tbat the sane result would bo reached if the
case was governed by the rules of evidence, as
it stood previous to tbe statutes of the State, as
a foreign conviction in the year 1799 would not
render such a person Incompetent. The follow
ing important questions ef law were fully
siened, bat a decision on the first point rendered
a decision in them unnecessary, although an in
timation were in their favor.
Firit. That bail could not be taken under the
extradition treaty, because coses so arising are
not offenses against the United States, but sim
ply under treaty. Second. Tbe question as to
whether the United Stales Circuit Court bas
appellant jurisdiction from a decision of the
United States Commissioner. Third. How far
the Circuit Court could review evidence on cer
tiorari and habeas corpus. The prisoner was
remanded to the custody of the United States
Manbal, and will be removed to Canada on
Wednesday or Thursday next.
