Stockton Jlorsit, Cai'rMv, ) Kooin 1 1,810 00. J Diun Tm-boiiapiI : Did you hear Unit President Lntta was down kcrc reviewing Colonel Grunt, including his Re mrves; Mrs. (inint, Miss Mrlntyrc, and Mr. A. W. Markley, owner of the rl'"'e ? Well, they were, or he did a something of that sort. My Lead is rr"y well addled Mtin; up stairs to my room in the .Stockton Nowse. Perhaps you are not aware of what the Stock Ion House in. You have the Continental and Ciirard House in Philadelphia, but they would lie mere wins to this) Sea-bird lloue. To at tempt a description of the House "after what Iirb been written would seem presumption," as the writers Oar; but here goes. The tract ot ground occupied by this house was lir6t granted lo the Spanieu by the Indians in 1(104. The Spauish soon degraded into Half-Spanish and then into Common, and in that condition remained up to the beginning of the present century. At the opcuinq; of the present century the Cape May aud Millvillo K. It. Co. determined to lay out a portion of Southern. Jersey, formerly called Spain, for the purpose of buildingallotel. The present Stockton House is the result of these long-laid plans. The plan was laid on the bare grouud, stretching from pole to pole. After they had stretched from pole to pole, and had got enough poles to stretch to, they stretched back again; then. they built up and down the poles, then across again, and so on until the money run out, and then they stopped. My room was built after the money run out. conscjiieutly is not in the "House" proper.but situated '-adjacent thereto," at the conveyancers say. The Orey Reserves enme down here some time ago. I asked one soldicr-man. who in quired of me the way to Camp Upton, when lie tame down, aud he said he had Kern Down for n Week Back, mil, indeed, it seemed to me that the weakness had left his back and gone into his knees. No Iolitieian I ever saw was weaker-kneed than this un-Rescrved old Grey. The company, by-the-way, are under strict discipline, except when they are under their tents. The thermometer to-day is 108, almost sis high as gold, in the shade, but the boys have not taken any of the padding out of the breast of their coats yet, evidently determined to sweat it out on that line if it takes all summer; but at the rate they are sweating it now, I don't think it will take all summer. The company, as I said before, are under Rood discipline as far as it goes. Some of them have I- r i 1 ';-fc ii3i 7tu, Pytd for Their Country, tut it was ouly their whiskers and -moustache that they subjected to this ordeal, aud when any rf the Greys were killed they were turned into Llackx: consequently the niirlit mtu of "would be equalled by the nitrate of silver used cb ice occasion, uwing to tins want of expe rience in drilling, a very mortifying event hap pened to the regiment on the day of their recep tion of Colonel Latta's friend and companion, President (Iraut, on the pier at the steamboat landing. The Colonel had his men all drawn up ia lino on either side of tho long pier, to allow the General and his suite to pass through. After the Presideut had passed, the Colonel, in his prompt aud commanding way, gave the com juand, 'Men! Fullln!" when the majority of them, mistaking it for sb order to show their agility in swimming, tunillvd. tlnuistlvea vyv IwfcYvard iuto tUc bay, Mm The President paid no attention to it, thinking it was part of the Colonel's tactics. Ei-Serre-tary Borie said he never saw a neater thin); lh water in his life, and if he had the power he would have the fellows all named over again on the strength of thio christening. That night the Colonel and the Reserves invited themselves down to the Stockton House, partly to sec what they delusively called "their Old Commander," and partly because t 'A. The Mnnqniion Were I ncorainon Tlilrk thatiilght at Camp Upton. Indeed, I don't re member ever having seen them thicker. There was a hopping time at Congress nail the same evening, and all the regiment did not get back to camp before morning, most of them being I'nalrr Aram all night. During the festivities of the evening a pyro technic display was giveu in front of the hotel on the lawn, and the Spai ks Flew Around in a manner iiito dangerous, both in doors and out; indeed, a great many lawns were well trampled besides the one in front of the hotel. I never saw lawns have harder usage than on that night. Towards the small hours things begun to sober down a little, aud then could be distinctly heard, breaking through the comparative stillness as they came rolling in upon the beach, the beauti ful deep base of v Si rtx Ctb The Sca-nlile Swells This feature of life by the ocean is its most attractive one to many. Next morning, at 0 minutes 14 seconds past 11, President Grant went in to bathe, Arronipanlcil by Colonel l.nlln Etiquette forbidding the Presideut to take his cigar out of his mouth, and tho Colonel to take off his glasses, they both enjoyed their bath by digging holes in the sand to put their feet iu. lhe Reserves yesterday were treated to a ride out to sea ou the "Lady of the Lake," and as old ocean was a little rough from the butt night's storm, many of the Reserves had to throw off all reserve, or nearly all, making them doubt whether the trip was intended by the Colonel in kiuduess or as a sanitary measure. Some had, ou the day previous, spoken of the inferior quality of the pork furnished theni at the camp, and even went so far, when out to tea, as to throw it up to the Colonel. The "Lady of the Lake" soon returned, and landed the Reserve-, what was left of them, at the Island, when they ' again marched to their camp. Mr. W. 15. Miller, the owner of the farm on which the camp is situated, is more pleased with tbe Reserves every day. lie says each day must hhorteu their stay on his place, lie told me lie had never seen more greeu-bottlc flies, or green bottles lly, around his farm than lie had this past week. Mrs. Miller would like Drum-Major Rabbi tt to stay down all summer, bhc says she believes he could knock more ap ples with that club of ids than botli her boys. The Reserves tell me that thev have enjoyed Iheir trip im,,., llt,dyi 011v it Wilsa Uule tlilli;.iilt to sleep and get things to eat; in every other particular it was very pleasant, if it had not been so hot the few days it didn't raiu. The ram made the ground a little damp, but It soon dried, except in their tents, and it would have dried there if they lmd taken their tents down. 1 hey have orders to strike their tents to-morrow. One of the boys said lie would rather strike the tent-maker, because he thinks he is the most to blame, and not tho tent. I asked him, "For what?" He said, "We had a very good time, or would have had if we had been home." Which wise opinion is endorsed by 1'ours ever, the g, e. "What portious of the body are the best travel lers?

Wiiite Wdt ill V J? i A ROYAL SCANDAL. lBsnnlty Ktepfc In toml llnlka tbc Curiosity ot the World. A London correspondent of the C'blrago Tri line writes as follows: The following paragraph appeared hist week in one of tho papers: "1 he scandal-loving public were expecting some extremely interest ing details when the Warwickshire case, which has been so much talked about, should come on in the Divorce Court. They will.lt seems, be disappointed. The lady on whom the imputa tions rested has been stricken with insanity. The pnblic have no more to do with tho matter. Pity lor tbc poor woman if innocent, so terribly slandered by suspicion; if guilty, so terribly punished for wrongdoing must take the place of any other feeling. Let us pitifully drop the curtain on the past." On this tho Royal Lea mington Chronicle, a respectable paper of tho district, observes : " 'i he scandal-devouring imblie and the rigidly righteous in our social life will, probably, be silenced and contented; but that truer and higher morality, if it really exist, which will not be satisfied by the know ledge that vengeance lias been visited upon a prostrate and forsaken victim, and will at least desire that equal retribution should be done to both what has it to say of that other, who, re port avers, is too high in social position for jus tice to reach ? Will he who, perhaps, has no less violated the tenderest social relations will he, because he happen to be in high posi tion, or because, forsooth, he belongs to the stronger sex will it satisfy a pure sense of social morality aud public justice that he should be permitted to evade all participation in that chastisement which has visited the weaker one in such terriblo form ? He, pcrad venture, is ill still be found reposing in the shelter of that household which he quitted in disguise like a very felon, for the set purpose (so runs the re port) of destroying the happiness of another and which be may leave again and again, for all society cares or dares, upon the same errand of iniquity, and to the terrible undoing of another and another, whom the world refuses to screen o' excuse, because she is weaker than he. The court, the camp, the field will still lie free to him perchance the throne itself but, alas! however lofty and powerful may be his position, he cannot raise her to that from which she has iallen, and where she will ever lie 'So low- Ann none so poor to do Uor reverence' Wc may add, as a redeeming laet, that much indignation is felt, aud wc have heard much ex pressed iu Warwickshire, that the conduct of the person in high position whose name has been so commonly associated with this domestic tragedy should not have been subjected to a strict inves tigation, in order that his guilt or innocence might be demonstrated; and we are assured that the longer such an inquiry is delayed the stronger and deeper will grow the suspicion." It is well known, of course, to whom this refers; but the poor lady, the wife of a baronet, made the accusation against herself and him while in milk fever after her confinement, and statements eo made ought not to be accepted as necessarily true. Still the public are uneasy, and it was not without meaning that the Lord Mayor last night said, in one of his speeches, that "a con dition of royalty was the power to respect and esteem. "' I'orsonaliticw. Hon. Edward McPhcrson, Clerk of the House of Representatives, sailB in the German steamer from Baltimore next Wednesday. George Peabody and W. W. Corcoran arc at the White Sulphur Springs, Virginia. The Palazzo Muti Savorelli lias been secured for the Marquis of Bute next winter. It is that which was occupied by his collateral ancestor, the exiled James II, when in Rome.) The Indipvndi'nt says it is a marvel that no ex-President since the days of John Quincy Adams has ever had the courage to revisit Wash ington after his term of oflice had expired until Andrew Johnson lately returned to the scene of his former greatness. Has the Independent for gotten that John Tyler was president of the Peace Convention of 1S01, which was held iu Washington ? The Chicago Journal has this from New York: "Commodore Vanderbilt buried his wife a few months since a noble woman who had been his companion from early manhood, and to whom he was indebted for very much of his success in life. When he kept a country tavern on Staten Island, she ran the honse aud atteuded to every tiling while he was absent ou his boat ing expeditions. Report has it thattlie Commo dore, who is now seventy-five years of age, is to lead to the hymeneal altar In a few days a blooming maiden of seventeen summers." The following distinguished personages arc in New York: Count de Tureuue, of the French Legation at Washington, is stopping at the Albemarle. Hotel. General J. 15. Murray, of Seneca Falls, is at the Hoffman House. Senator J. G. Harris, of Louisiana; Senator Fenton, of New York; Judge A. Nelson, of Pouglikecpsie, and George R.

Jones, of Bingham ton, and Senator Ross, of Kansas, are at the St. Nicholas Hotel. M:urii CruiiililinR In. A letter from Niagara Falls states: "The chantre in the Falls this spring is the greatest that has been witnessed, probably, by any one generation. In the Horse Shoe Fall, where the green water is seen, the rock has crumbled away to the depth of about thirty-live feet, on the side nearest Goat island. Tho circular appearance of the Horse Shoe is now changed, aud is more in the shape of a triangle than anything else. The American Fall has also met with some alteration, which old habitues notice this season; more particularly is it seen on the site towards Luna Island, and were a pointed projection of rock to give way, the appearance would be changed to that of a Dorse Shoe. It is estimated by competent geo logists that some one hundred and litty tons of rock must have given way from the Horse Shoe alone. Tho beauty of the Falls is not iit tbo least marred, but rather enhanced, and old habi tues seem to like the Falls this year much better than ever." The J'Mlnle of I lie Hon. Henry J. Itn viuond. The Hon. Henry J. Ravmond died worth about 4f)0,0CO; a little over ?rr)0,0()0 was in real estate, the balance being in personal property. On petition of his widow, Juliette., Surrogate Tucker has granted letters of administration upon the personal estate left. The petition re cites that the petitioner resides at No. Vi West Niutli street, iu the city of New York; that tho deceased left no will; that the value of de ceased's personal property does not exceed '.'( 0,ti00; that deceased left surviving him tho following children: Henry W. Raymond (of full aire), Mary E. Raymond, Lucy M. Raymond, and Aimec J. A. Raymond, minors. Tho petition concludes by asking that letters of administra tion upon tho personal property bo granted to the widow, jointly with Edwin D. Morgan. The sureties on the bond given by the administratrix aud administrator are George D. Morgan and John T . Terry, both of Irviugton, Westchester county, each of whom swears that he is worth !t4()0,0(i(i over and above his debts and liabilities. JY.
