ETC. Cafe May City, Jnne 8, 1870. The rapid strides which this favorite sea bathing resort ha made, in the way of improve ment, are wonderful. It was but a few years Since that the inhabitants lived in clap-boarded and shingled houses, and subsisted almost en tirely upon clams and fish. In those days "this fair isle by the sea" was called the "jumping off place," and the only way to reach it was by 'shallop" or a rickety old stage, drawn by Jersey matches through heavy sands, dreary swamps, and over jolting corduroy roads. In those days it would sometimes requlro two weeks to reach here by water and two days by land. Still a large number of rhiladolphians would contrive to get here, and there is many nn old resident of that city now whose eyes will kindle up at the bare mention of tho happy days he spent here in gunning and fishing and partaking of those old-fashioned dinners and suppers made up from their own "feather and fin" sports. If that old "swag-bellied Hollander," Captain Mey, who first lauded here, and after whom the island is named, could poke his bead up from the grave now, he would regret that he did not take up his bed and board here, instead of steer ing his good ship for Manhattan Isle. What was a desolate sand bank then is a juvenile Paradise now. The scream of the wild sea-bird Is now drowned by the shrill whistle of the locomotive. A most wonderful change has been wrought here since the completion of the railroad. The island can boast of some of the finest hotels in the country, which, for their capacity and ele gance of their appointments, certainly cannot be surpassed. Cape Island is beyond question the favorite, and, therefore, the most popular eea-side resort in the country. Its unexampled growth is owing almost entirely to the liberality and enterprise of Philadelphia capitalists, by whom, it may be safely said, it is now settled. It is estimated that nearly two hundred thou sand persons visited this place last season, among whom were some of your wealthiest citi zens and the cream of the leaders of fashion. From the extraordinary improvements which have been made since the close of last season, it is fair to presume that the number will be largely increased this year. What was once an insignificant village is now a flourishing and growing city. It is studded with costly and magnificent summer residences, and adorned with handsome stores. The im provements since last year have cost over one million of dollars. Cottage life and its com forts are growing more into favor every year, and some seventy or eighty have been erected since the close of last season, at a cost ranging from five thousand to twenty thousand dollars each, and lots have been secured for a large number of others, which will be built at an early day. The new wing to Congress Ilall presents a formidable appearance, and is a model of archi tectural beauty. This addition consists of four hundred feet of new buildings, three stories high. The whole building has been renovated, improved, and refurnished in first-class style. The main entrance is twenty-five feet in height on the ground floor, supported in front by beau tiful collonnaaes. This portion'of the building will be brilliantly lighted with gas reilected from chandeliers and hanging globes. The new parlors will each have a 10-light chandelier, and the dining-room will be radiant with mel low light. Gas will be in every room in the house, and to secure a certain supply, new gas works have been constructed with a suf ficient capacity to meet any emergency. The interior arrangements of the house are excellent, and the guests can enjoy the most luxurious comfort. The ocean view is magnificent and unobstructed. On the side facing the oceaa the new wing is provided with separate balconies from each room, which will offer pleasant places for family gatherings and te'e-a-tctes. A fine open balcony exteads the full length of the parlors, affording a delightful view of the ocean and bathing grounds. The piazzas around the entire building are twenty five feet In width, and directly front the lawn and the ocean. The furniture iu the main par lor is of the rich Pompadour style, and alone cost over five thousand dollars. The music parlor is equally grand. There are also tea etageres or hall pieces, made of French walnut, adorned with different colors, with gold lines, and constructed in the Corinthian style, with two columns on either Bide of an immense plate of polished glass. A slab of Lisbon marble constitutes the centre, and on the sides are two raised pedestals of antique design, on which bronze figures rest. The parlors are covered with rich Axminster carpets. In all these improvements Mr. J. F. Cake, the proprietor, has displayed fine taste and great enterprise and liberality. The cost of building the new wing was two hundred and fifty thousand dol lars. llaseler's band has been engaged. The fashionable Columbia House, with its old and popular proprietor, Mr. George J. Bolton, of Harrisburg, has undergone a series of im provements which will cost between twenty and thirty thousand dollars. The Columbia has been brushed up and burnished up from top to bot tom, and looks almost as good as new. This house, under the careful management of Mr. Bolton, has always commanded the largest share of the solid and old-fasnloncd wealthy families who desire quiet and retiremeut. I have nothing to add in favor of this house to what has already been said. The military and string band of Professor Bastert has been engaged for the season. The Columbia will open on the 23d. Mr. George L. Jacoby and Mr. P. O'Connor, late of the Merchants' Hotel, of your city, and Mr. John Potter, of Harrisburg, have been engaged as clerks, and, like Mr. Bolton, they are very courteous and atteutive gentlemen. The mammoth Stockton House, which was opened for the first time last season, has changed hands, Mr. Peter Gardner having asso ciated himself witn Mr. Chadwlck in the man agement of the West End Hotel, at Long Branch. Mr. Charles Duffy is the new pro prietor of the Stockton. He is a very clever gentleman, and brings with him the ripe know ledge of a long hotel experieuce. He has been for many years one of the chiefs in the ollice of the Continental Hotel, iu you r city, where he has made many warm and devoted friends. Ha lUrted out iu Lo'.cl lifj ui au a'.tzc'u. -ji Oil Conpress Hall, at Third and Chosnnt streets. When Congress Ilall was torn down, he went to the Girard House, from thence to Willard's Hotel at Washington, and back again to the Continental Hotel, where ho has remained ever since. Mr. Duffy, in his executive department, has surrounded himself with a galaxy of hotel talent, lie has engaged J. Harry Dennlson, of the Merchants', as room clerk; Mr. Bower, lato of the St. Lawrence, as cashier; Mr. George McGlnley, late of the Charleston (S. C.) Hotel, as steward; Mr. William A. Anderson, formerly of tho La Pierre, as bill clerk; and Mr. Johnson, formerly of Congress Hall, as head waiter. Mr. Eberle, of your city, has taken the Stockton House Stables. He will bring down with him six new and stylish English ph;rtons, six Newport pony basket wagons, six elegant buggy wagons, and a number of fine saddle horses. The drivers of the pbirtons will be dressed in livery. Two new and handsome four-horse omnibuses will convey the guests of the Stockton to and from the depot and the eteimboat landing, while a new wagon, after the model of Adams' large express wagons, will gobble up the baggage. These are novelties to the island, but as Mr. Duffy is a man of nerve and enterprise, he deserves to succeed. The Atlantic has been partially rebuilt and presents a neat appearance. It is beautifully furnished. Mr. John McMakin, the young pro prietor, lost everything by the destruction of his house at the time of the conflagration last year. He was not insured, and much sympathy is felt for him and his estimable lady. The old bar, which for nearly half a centuiy was the great resort for the lovers of fine wines and fat Cape May oysters, is no more. The house is now conducted on strictly temperance principles. The Ocean House will be reopened by Messrs. Lycett & Sawyer, two very popular gentlemen. This house is owned by a mer chant of your city. Mr. William Mason has consolidated the Mer chants' and Continental, which will give his guests additional facilities. Mr. Jerry Mecray has opened the Centre House, and has already quite a number of guests. The Washington and several other of the cmaller houses have been open for some weeks past. All the hotel accommodations have been vastly improved since last season, and a gay and brilliant season may well be anticipated. The 5th Maryland Regiment will go into camp on the grounds of John C. Bullitt, Esq., in the latter part of July. Mr. Duffy, of the Stockton, will serve up their rations. The famed 7th Regiment of New York will also make a trip here to pay their brother soldiers of Maryland a visit. General Sewell will commence running tho Saturday trains on the 10th inst. Colonel Rich ard M. Thompson will again have the manage ment of the Sea Breeze (Excursion) House. A large number of merchants of your city are here preparing their cottages for the summer. Every freight train brings down immense quan tities of household furniture. Major H. D. Loney, of the Maryland Regi ment, paid us a short visit this week for the purpose of making the necessary arrangements for the encampment. The Surf House is for sale. Several Philadel phians have opened here boarding-houses restaurants, and saloons. Among them I notice A. Prosiauer, C. Mirabella, A. Loftus, F. Koenig, Judah C. Lemon, George W. Shoemaker, McCnen & Donaldson, Joseph Reigel, McCunney & Denson, and several others whose names I do not recollect. Some of these places are fitted up very hand somely. The demand for rooms at the different leading hotels exceeds that of last year. John W. Lycett, Esq., Treasurer of the Cape May Mutual Fire Insurance Company, has fur nished me with the following list of the cost of some of the most important improvements since the close of last season: By Mr. J. F. Cake, a new wing and other ad ditions to Congress Ilall, from designs by Hon. W. W. Ware. Estimated cost about $250,000. Mr. George J. Bolton, Columbia House, 20,000.

Yours, Oto. RV8KIK. A PROBABLE MILLENNIUM THE INFLUENCE OF WOMAN AS A PEACE SOCIETY. Mr. Iluskin, at the close of a recent U.cturo on war, addressed to the Iioyal Military Col lege, Woolwich, England, made the follow ing remarks to the ladies present: You may wonder, perhaps, that I hvve spoken this night in praise of war. Yet truly, if it might be, I, for one, would fain join the cadence of hammer-btroken that should beat swords into ploughshares; and that this cannot be, is not the fault cf ua men. It is your f anlt. Wholly yours. Only by your command, or by your permission, oaa any content take place among us. And the real, final roason for all the poverty, misery, and rage of battle throughout Europe is simply that you women, however good and religious, however self-sacrificing for those whom yon love, are too selfish and too thoughtless to take pains for any creature out of your immediate oircles. Yon fancy that you are sorry for the pain of others. Now, I just tell you this, that if the usual course of war, instead of up rooting peasants' houses and ravaging pea sants' fields, merely broke china upon your own drawing-room tables, no war in civilized countries would last a week. I tell you more that, at whatever moment you choose to put a period to war, you could do it with less trouble than you take any day to go oat to dinner. You know, or at least you might know, if you would think, that every battle you hear of has made many orphans aud wi dows. We have none of us heart enough truly to mourn with these; but, at least, we might put on e outer symbols of mourning with them. Let but every Christian lady who has conscience towards God tow that she will mourn, at least inwardly, for His killed crea tures. Your prayer is useless, and your church-going mere mockery of God, if you have not plain obedience in you to your con science. Let every lady in the happy classes of civilized Europe simply vow that, while any cruel war proceeds, she will wear black a mute's black with no jewel, no ornament, no excuse for an invasion into prettinejs: I tell you again, no war would last a week. Foreigners in Greece. Now that the classic soil of Greece has again become noto rious through the recent unwarranted murders committed by Greek brigands, the insecurity of life and property in that historio land is again frequently spoken of in European jour nals. We see it stated, says the New Orleans 1'icajfune, that it is almost a matter of impos sibility for foreigners to acquire property and permanently reside in Greece. In substanti ation of which, attention is called to the fact that only one foreigner has, of late, succeeded in maintaining his foothold in Greece. He owns a large tract of land, and has acquired" considerable fortune. His name is Noel. lie is a relative of Lord Byron, and has resided forty years in Greece. Uis neighbors were not so fortunate as he. The hatred and the enmity of the natives have driven them from their possessions. It is a matter of frequent occurrence that mea sures of violence are resarted to whenever the obnoxious foreigners do not immediately yield to the demands of the "noble" sous of Greece. Not long ago au Englishman, named Lee, was taken from his house, and he, his wife and child, were murdered by their former neighbors, who were led to these atrocities by the fanatical priest of the village. As another instance of the cruel treatment of foreigners by natives of Greece, it is stated that some of the Bavarian soldiers, who cams to Greece with King Otto, were presented with a tract of land near Athens, which had Iain waste for a long time aud resembled more a desert than anything else. The Havariau soldiers succeeded, however, in cultivating tbis desert-like tract of laud, and were enjoy ing the results of their hard labor, whou, at the time when King Otto had to leave Greece, the natives made war upon the German colo nists, robbed them of all they had, and drove them from their possessions. At Vienna it is still well remembered when these victims of Greek barbarism arrived there, having been dFt-poiled of everything, and only saving their I:ve? ' v Ltr " very switt-lootd.
