ThU day Is a day (or a pensive mood. The ftlmoaphere Is In one of Its mod peculiar tumors, quite IndfHcrtbable. Allhough some what hazy, and forrbodinff a storm, It U still "Wondrously clear and rtUoj?ehpr airrceable. Yesterday afternoon lt peculiar state produced very curious and uuihuhI itlect. For two or three hours previous to miii-mH the shores of Delaware were distinctly visible lor a stretch of several miles, more distinctly, say the old resi dents, than has been the ca.o for several years. This rare plu ijonjcnon attracted great attention ftnd comment. Another topic of frequent dmcmslon has bojn the unusual success altcn ling the present sea eon. The simo reliable authorities quoted above, the old-time resldcr.ti ol the Island, arc quite well assured that never In tho pmt has It born equallod, and never approached save by the season of 1HC5. Opening with the last week Of June, the islund was tilled abuo-l to d.scom fort by the twentieth of July, tho great rush Continuing for a lull month, and closluu scarcely a week ago, During this periol It Is claimed that the average population ol the place, inolud lng both cottagers and hotel guebt. raugol between ten and twelve thousand, while no and then, especially over a Sunday, it rearhcJ thirteen thousand. Your correspondent Is not disposed to question these figures; tor, la com mon with hundreds of other-, he can testify to tho faot that it was fiequeutly Impossible t- Obtain accommodations that wouli have tatisQel a horse who was not even ordinarily fastidious. The amount of travel over the railroad likewise affirm b the statement. From the first of July to the present time tho dally through travel between the island ami Philadelphia has averaged 1500, while from July 20 to August 13 the periol of tho great crammlns process it amounted to at least 2503. The erection of the splendid Excursion Uoue by the railroad company tended greatly to increase the passenger tratlic of the road, espe cially with respect to excursion trains, one of Which has been run nearly every day Muce tho 4th of July. In addition to the 40,000 or more perbons which the .railroad has transported to the island, the steamers have been quite buty also. In this connection, the stutistlcs of the leading bo'.els are of weight and interest. A Careful estimation of the number of names registered flnce the opening in June on the books of the principal establishments shows the following result: uZ:Z3M United Btaits Hotel -2i2i Atluutle Ho' el.. MM Centre House .. 117:3 Washington House II2 JDelaware House 7ii In addition to these are half a score of smaller concerns, at which from 200 to 400 dim-rent per sons have been entertained during the season. There is still another noticeable feature about tho hotel business of this cummer. The great rush lasted almost twice as long as is usually the case, and the proprietors say that uever before have their guests extended their visits so long. It is next to Impossible to form an estl. mate of the amount of money which has found Us way from the pockets of the people into the coffers of the hotel proprietors, storekeepers of all kinds, backmen, aud others who find Cape Island a profitable place for business of some sort, but it certainly runs well up into the hun dreds of thousands of dollar?. Although the grca?ru-li terminated about two weeks ago, the season Is not jet at an end. At three or four hotels the arrivals of Saturday numbered about one hundred, and the depart ures this morning were unusually and unex pectedly light. The scene at dinner at Congress Hall or the Columbia House shows that hun. drcds of people are sti'.l s'.owed away at each place; while the cottagers, most of whom came down very early in the season, nave not yet made preparations for the exodus to the city. On Saturday evening the last grand hop at the Columbia House took place, under the manage ment of Mr. Mark Hass-lor. The large dining room was crowded, and the assemblage was as brilliant aud vtvaclom as any which have pre ceded it. At tho same time a larce audience was gathered in the dining-room of Cougress Hall, the attraction being a concert given by the choir of tho Rev. T. De Witt TaV jnadge's church, the proceeds being lor tho benefit of the Methodist Episcopal Church at this place, of which the Kev. Mr. Hewitt is pnstor. The programme was a choice nnd diffi cult one, but was executed with commendable care, and in a manner altogether successful and pleasing. On Saturday evening next the festiv ities of the summer will be formally terminated by a hop at Congress Hall, under Uasskr's management. If the threatened storm does no1 transpire, there will be found on the island quite enough people to impart to the occasion as brilliant a character as 11 the season were btlll at its height. Informal hops are also set down lor several evenings during the week. The pleasures ot the bath, aad the rare invlgo ration of the sea breeze, do not suffice, save ior a very few persons of quiet deposition, and as long as a corporal's guard can be mustered, tho sound of music and the tripping of "tho light fantastic toe" will be heard aud seeu. Now that the present season is raplJly draw ing to a close, arrangements for the future are already under way. The municipal authorities have heretofore merited and received the con demnation of nearly every visitor to the islan 1. The streets are In a miserable condition by day, and by night they are enveloped in darkness most profound. Both of these drawbaoks, it is understood, are to be remedied during tb.9 coming winter. Every (jollar thus expended will certainly prove a paying investment. But the authorities will not be alone in their Droeressive fplrlt. The property to the south nf the Fxcuivion Hou-e, including the site of the famous old Mount Vernon Hotel, and em bracing aHogether about one hundred aud -pvfutv acres, was purchased a few days ago py McBtrs. T. Jones Voike, President of the West Jersey Kallroad Company; W. J. Sewell, nonornl SiuKrlnteudentof the same company; A W Maikley. of the Tarn leu and A.nboy uiiilrimd Comnanv: and Johu G. Stevens. President of the Cape way ana iinuvim-Bailro-vl Company; not f.r the corpontlon'1 With which tliey arc omu'eted, but in their pilvatc rapacity. The " Tty '" quwllou Ua tn ocean front of a mile uml a quarter, t ie whole of which can easily be made available for batbii'f purposes. During the autumn months it will be laid out with spacious gravelled ave nues ior drlvlur, and plank walks for prome nading, and will then be thrown upon the mar ket as first-claes cottage aud hotel sites. Tho enterprise cannot be otherwise than successful, In view of the continually Increasing popularity of Cape Island as a summer resort. Every person who has made the journey from the island to the steamboat landing has bad oc casion in the past to contemplate the drive with lecllngs anything but agreeable. Tlie road, in short, is a model Jersey road, full of breaks and ruts, and apparently the receptacle of all the dust in the country. And yet, by a violent stretch of imagination, possible only with a native-born and home-taught Jcncyniau, this wictched furco of a road is presumed to be a turnpike, and every person traveling over it behind a bea.t ot buidcu is mulcted in an uncertain sum by Ptty Imposition is di mands of the the hncVs, one's way or toll. When this added to the exorbitant land sharks who propel patience and good na ture are put to quite as severe a test as they will stand. It Is given out, however, that wc are to have an improvement in this respoct. The Turnpike Company (save tho mark!) con templates increaning its stock, aud with the money thin secured it Is snid that they will pbicc the road to the landing in goo J condition and moreover extend it along the Bay to the Diamond Ecach Park. This last enterprise, now one year old, has proved a most miserable fail ure; but if a cood solid road Is once secured over whkb to drive, it ii possible that its droop, lug fortunes may be revived. The proposed im provement i certainly one of the mo.it depirablo that has been discu9ed"of late, and it is to be hoped that there will bo something mote than mere talk in it. The proposed extension of Congrcs Hill is aluo a wife movement. The old portion of tha bulldiugs has been standing for over fifty years, and is decidedly a relic of a past age. The projected improvements will rcudcr necessary the demolition ot all the buildings except the portion including the luamiGcent dining-room. In their place it is proposed to erect a four Ftory building, with a frontage on Perry street of 650 feet. Tho establishment will then have comfortable accommodations for full one thousand guests. The dining-room will be extended about fifty feet, miking its dimen slons two hundred nnd cixty by forty-one feet On tl c second lloor will be a handsome ball room, Ui feet in leng'h, by fifly foct in width; a spacious io'.unda, 40 by 25 feet, will replace the cramped nnd contracted quarters in which the main entrance nnd olliee are located; and several elegant purlors will be added to those which will not ikccss arily bo disturbed. The expense attending the nronoscd imnrove- )ent win reach 300,000, and persons who are Miliar with the l,.,!dc workings of tho hotel business on the I-l ind are positively assured that the investment will prove a paying one. Omikroh. NEW YORKISMS. From Our Own Coirajiomenl. New Yokk, Aug. 25. I should feel thankful if I never had to say another word about ciime. On purely selfish considerations, and putting the benevolent view of the subject altogether out ot consideration, I should feel thankful to burglars, garroters. homicl ie?, aud bummers, and bugbeurs of every degree, if they would be good enough to execute one last chcfd'uwre in their respective lines, and then forever retire from the field tbey have so gloriously adorned. Magnifying my protec tion, I feel th'it eveu the pen of the domestic correspondent is fit for 6omethin better than the chronicling of details which loom up in police courts, nn.l are colored in sensation jour nals with a lurid aud a bloody glamour. The tame mo in tho thermometer, however, which causes overcoats to be left oil, aud under coats to be thrown open aud an undue display thus to be made el chains, watches, and dia mond spiral btu(N, thereby hounding tha pibroch to the thieves whose figures the rulllers and wrapping of C"ld wcalhei served to keep at a ctnven eut distuccc this same rise in tlie thermometer seems to have been accompanied by a ynipat'uctlc rise of the huinau blood to murder heat, and to have caused an unprece dented number of homicides and suicides and wickedness of every description. A notable instance of this was in the suicide perpetrated a day or two ago by an Alois Arraltli a Frenchman, about tbirty-Qve years old, who ior on indefinite time has kept a candy-staui at the loot of Grand street and Broadway. Uu candies were not particularly good, aud bis ptrsonnel not particularly prepossessing. Still no harm was kuown of the poor fellow, and h's candies, de'plte their not being of the first order of excellence, were told to rapidly that his cuttomeisconcluded, wita the happy faculty some people have of drawing conclusions, that he wns niakiu money fast. Late on tho evening in question, however, he enterud hi 1 nely and comfcrlh 8s room in Laurens street, au l wrote a note, the contents of whicti did not transpire until yesterday morning. Having wiitten it, instead of closiug the wiudows aud Introducing a pan of charcoal, or of preparing the approved amount of Purls greeu, he opened au artery in Lis left arm with a razor, aud bled to death. The note stated that he bad beeu 111 l j ( hiif 11 f'. tin v ni hitnnmt- u burden, be was weary oi r, ana i..ui an ihe property ho possessed thoul 1 bj sunt to his wile aud two children iu France. Tuo wiiolo thing apnoured to hae beeu done with the quietness, the sut'.r-lactlou, the helf-eouiplaceucy of the nccompli-heJ Frenc h suicide. Accoiu plibhed, bt cuute the suicides of no other nation under heaven make their final exit wiih so cool and comtortabls a race. Tbe fumes from tho charcoal-pan wrap a mist of dark fragrauee uround tr.e most commoaphu e caieer, aud help to romanticize it, and make it interesting. ThU poor carul) -seller had the true tact of llie boru suicide (if I may u?e the expression.) He for bore to cut his throa, and had ho possessed a warm balh, I am convinced he would have Rtepi ed into it, and romantically bled to death with a ceutleQianlv languor that would have become the niont voluptuous suicides. Milk Is like whisky In one respect, viz., tho lots water you get mixed with It the better, Two ingenious milkmen, who had apparently urrivtd at the conclusion that milk aud water is as bmoficinl to adults as to infants, have been in the habit in broad daylight of dr iving their milk carts up alongside the curb in West stroet, nnd watering their uiiik from the hydraut there 'Hut a luicc quantity ot liquid direct from Crolotib !aiij- mirtd ,i.h th.' lacteal iccutuu latlons which are dealt out daring the esrly hours of tbe morning at the doors of our citizens s of course a fact the habit, of course, bavin: long passed into one of the most popular insti tutions with whlob. the country resales the town. But the brazenness of Messrs. Betka and Kohbomburg, the guilty milkmen in question, surpasses anything of the kind ever witnsel in a civilized community during the nineteenth century. There, according to tho police officer who made tbe arrest, there stood tho milk-curt, with tbe cans bclug filled as though they were part and parcel of a street-sprinkler preparing for immediate service. Add to this that a number of scrofulous looking cows have boen discovered, from which milk has been for the lat few days supplied to some of the most fas tidious palates In New York, and the measure of milkmen's iniquity will be seen to be run ning over. Matters being as bad as that, one might wish that the capricci were revived of the last generation of Parisian belles, who bathed In the milk that was afterwards retailed to the canaille. Next to eating rinderpest, nothing can be woree than drinking scrofula. In addition to these unique facts I have to state that one Owen Gannon has I a to I y boen executing a drunken war-dauco on the person of Ann Riley. Mr. Gannon Is remarkable for the mixture of strength and agility of his terpsi cboreau moods, and tho only objection to them in tbe present easels that he jumped one of Ann's eyes out, and danced with such nerne and abandon upon various other tender portions of her person, tbat it is doubtful whether she will recover. His toe was undoubtedly fantastic, but it can fcnrcely be said to have been light. When I add to this that a man named Kussell squeezed his arm so affectionately aro rud tho neck of a man named Miller, that tho latter was unable to make any resistance, whilst thi former deprived him of a wallet containing all his worldly possessions, I believe I close tho catalogue of brutal crimes and misdemeauors for the present. In the event of a failure of a sufficient supply of water from the Croton reservoir, a new repervolr has been erected in tho to wnsbip of Kent, Putnam county, about five miles north, webt of Carmel. Four hundred a'ad twenty ncres of land, at a cost of $100 per acre, were purchased for it. Its extreme length is to be 11.000 feet, its extreme width 2J00 feet, its average depth 25 feet, its area 300 acres, and its capacity 2,400,000,000 gallons. It will not be in operation until the summer of 1870, and it will yield an average yearly supply of 2,200,000,000 gallons. The plan which provided for the run ning of the Bos'on, Hartford nnd Erie Railroad, near the reservoir has, I believe, been abandoned. Am Baba. C 1 TY 1TE SI S.
