[sou at this favorite sea-Side resort is fast draw
ing to a close, though at present the weather
is decidedly more pleasant than at any time
during the whole year. Taking all things
into consideration, I think the hotel keepers
feel well satisfied; they certainly can have
no reason to complain, for business for them
was never better, every house on the island,
from the smallest try the United States, being
full during the whole of the season, and part
of the time they could not accommodate half
of those who applied for rooms. There is to
be a great many improvements made before
the next season commences, among which
will be the enlargement of the Surf
House. Mr. Thompson, the present
lessee. has demonstrated the fact that he can
keep a hotel, and cater to the comfort as
+well as to the amusement of his guests. The
Surf House is situated back about 400 feet
from the main avenue, and some four or five
squares below the railroad depot. It can
mow • accommodate, conveniently, between
four and five hundred people, and it is the
intention of the parties owning it to so in
crease its size and conveniences that it will
be second to none. Mr. Thompson will
again have charge next season. The railroad
company have purchased a large quantity of
ground, nearly a mile below the Surf House,
and extending from the main avenue
to the beach. I am informed it is
their intention to proceed forthwith to
erect a large and commodious hotel, to be
used exclusively for excursion parties: I
believe it is to exceed in size the famous "Sea
Breeze" at Cape May. If this design be car
ried out, it will work wonders toward the
fature success of this place. It will have the
effect of opening all the lower part of the
-city between the Surf House and the new
hotel, which will no doubt be covered with
handsome cottage residences, built by some
of your wealthy citizens for their own occu
pation. Another thing: the bathing is a great
deal better fertber_down, the fide not having_
so much effect in cutting out and the
bars. It will be an easy matter for the com
pany to extend their track! from the Y down
to the new hotel.
Speaking of the - Railroad Company, I was
informed that their receipts during the month
of July, 1868, were nearly $lO,OOO more than
in July, 1867. The Company is well man
aged. Horace Whiteman, the Secretary, Mr.
D. H. Mundy,Agent, and Mr. Culls, Super
intendent, are all the right men in the right
places. The conductors are affable, gentle
manly and obliging. Mr. 0. Beecher runs
the fast Express. William Johnson and
Archibald Fields change about in running
the Mail trains. Their whole attention is given
to their business, and they are untiring in
efforts - to make the passengers comfortable,
and to run their trains on time.
At the United States the season has been
one of uninterrupted enjoyment and festivity.
Not a night has passed without some kind of
amusement, either a hop or a concert. This
was, in the main, due to Messrs. Brown sk
Woelpper, the proprietors, ably assisted by
Simon Hassler, of your city. Simon was
always moving; in fact, he is of a restless
disposition, seldom satisfied except when
wielding. the baton for his fine orchestra.
The Light House Cottage, so called from
its proximity to the Light House, and the
White House, also, afforded scenes of mirth
and enjoyment; they had their hops and con
certs, and superb ones they were, and at
tended by the elite of the place. The Light
House Cottage is situated nearer to - the - beach
than any, house here. At high water the
tide flows up under the front porch. The
weather is clear and pleasantly cool, the air
_bracing and invigorating. We paw the time
now in sailing, sheephead fishing and gun
ning. The season for fishing and gunning
has just about commenced, and in another
week you will be able to see some of our
hotel-keepers, who have been working
hard all summer, with their guns and fishing
tackle, etc., on the way to the inlet to take the
boats, and then away to Brigantine and Long
Beach, where they spend a week or so in this
favorite sport. Some of them will take a
Sibley tent along and camp out the whole
time, in preference to staying in the boat or
stopping under a roof. Tne game consists of
wild duck, willet, curlew, snipe, etc. For
my part I prefer the fishing, for it is not ac
companied by so much hard labor, fatigue
and exposure as gunning, and it is equally as
exciting. Who has been fishing for sheep
head and snapping mackerel once that will
not want to go again, provided that he has
luck and catches three or four of each kind,
especially when they weigh eight or ten
pounds a piece? Why, luck of this kind
makes an amateur feel so proud that he can
hardly contain himself.
During the coming winter - the city autho
rities should turn their attention to the im
provement of the place. They collect a
handsome revenue from the hotels, store
keepers and others, during the summer, and
they are under but small expense, and that
only for salaries. There are streets to be
opened and graded, and there should not be
an avenue that is not opened to the beach,
property graded, and with either a nice plank
or gravel walk to the shore. They should
not expect the summer residents to take up
their abode here, pay Councils a heavy li
cense, and then compel them to pay taxes for
grading, etc. It is not right, and if not reme
died will eventually drive people to seek some
other quarter for investment. Public
spirited and enterprising men should
constitute their City Council and fill
the Is municipal offices. The Cove,

On last Tuesday evening William F. Flem
ing, special officer here, was presented with
a handsome gold badge of office by a few of
his Philadelphia friends. The presentation
was made by Richard Wafer, Esq., of your
city, and received on behalf of the "special"
by Albert Brothers, Esq., after which all pre 2 4.

ITALIAN OPERA
-Good Progro.tnine for the Coming Sea.
son—A Galaxy of Bri Want Artists.
For months past rumor has been busy with Mr..
Maplcson's name in onnection with the New
York Academy of Music. Mr. Mapleson is the
lucky, plucky and experienced manager of Her
Majesty's Opera, London, an institution that, in
spite of a calamitous contiagration,by__which Her
3isjesty's Theatre, together with its valuable mu
sical library, rich and extenElve wardrobe, and
other costly properties was totally destroyed,
has Droved a brilliant and powerful competitor
•of the Royal Italian Opera, Covent Garden, of
which Mr. Gye is the director. Guided by the
light of late and reliable intelligence, we are
3nabled to state that the Academy of Music
J im! , been leased for the fall and winter season of
Itallatiopera by Mr. Mapleson. Usually Mr.
Maplesorihas vialted the more important cities
of Glrent Britain after the close of the Court sea
son in town, and distributed opera with lavish
hand to the lovers of the luxury in Liverpool,
Dublin, Birmingham and other pOpulous cities.
But the clear and substantial success attained
throughout the entire London season just closed,
by Miss Kellogg. whom he Introduced abroad,ap
pt ors to have opened his eyes to the fact that the
mttropolis which reluctantly permitted her to
seek - triumphs in a foreign land should be brought
in o closer artistic communion wl
Paris. Acting upon the reflection, ho applied for
sad obtained the lease of the New York Opera
house, as above stated, and •has matured all his
plans for transferring Her Majesty's Opera Com
pany to this city by the 13th of October, at which
date the fall season of six Or eight weeks will
probably open. The company has found abun
dant favor with the London habitues—the late
season having been remarkably prosperous—and
the press has constantly , recorded the successes of
its leading members. The principals are Mlle.
Tierjens, Miss Clara Louise Kellogg, Dille.
alnico, Signor Buiterini, and Mr. ti.afittey,.
the noblest baritone now on the stage.
The band and chorus has , won reputation
under the inspiring control of the famous
Arditi. In reviewing the season which ended the
first instant, the London press united in recog
nizing the triumph achieved by our fair country
woman, Miss Kellogg, whose popularity con
duced greatly to the pecuniary success that
crowned the impressario's judicious efforts. The
result of Mies Kellogg's immediate and firmly
maintained success was that in Paris, Madrid and
St. Petersburgh,each made her an offer and exer
cised unusual influence to secure her•name as the
star attraction for the ensuing seasons. But Mr.
Mapleton desired equally to retain her services,
and to his earnest solicitations she gracefully
yielded. Her engagement with the London mana
ger has therefore been renewed for one year. After
singing here she is, to return to London to open
the regular season of 1869. Strictly speaking,
there are but three cities where Italian opera can
be liberally maintained—Paris, London, and New
York; and the number of genuine prima donne
Is almost as limited. Patti, Nilsson, and Kellogg
are the acknowledged queens. In Paris the blonde
Swede has gained a prestige that has to some ex
tent eclipsed the brilliance of the Patti rein,
and the marriage of the little paragon has still
further depressed her artistic stock In the art
bourse. Lucca may be mentioned as holding a
high Tank as a vocalist, but circumstances have
for the moment veiled her talent& and practically
tamed her out of the field. What Nilsson is to
Pans and what the Marchioness de Caux has
been to London, Miss Kellogg is to New York.
Abroad she has been justly hailed and indorsed
as an American queen of song, and we take it as
a delicate compliment on the part of Mr. Maple
son that he promptly accords our favorite the
bpporbinity Of receiving the - congratulations
which await her from friends at home. Mile.
Tietjons's visit will create universal interest. Asa
dramatic prima dorm she is to-day unmatched
and her farm. _unlimited. Her advent will be
hailed with Acelamation.—From the Season,
August 21.
[pf course, Mr. Mapieson will visit Philadel
phia, where opera is supported oven more liber
ally than in New York.]

SPLENDID TESTIMONIAL to the Gold Medal
Range.
UnioNvmat, Chester county, Pa..
11th Month 21, 186 G.
FRIZND J. S. CLARK: lam now ready to conclude
that Clark's Gold Medal Range is just the article
needed by all housekeepers, and its introduction an
era in the range business. I think it every way more
desirable than the Welcome Range I have Just torn
out. It warms two rooms perfectly above the kitchen,
and sends into the sitting room back of it a floe vol
ume of hot air when•the registers upstairs are closed.
We have 'row tried the range fully with cooking,
roasting baking and warming, and it gives us entire
satisfaction, and will only say, in conclusion, that our
call at thy store was a very fortunate oue for us.
Very only, thy friend.
Thanks F. Stat.

This Company, National in its character,offers,
by reason of its Large Capital, Low Rates of Pre•
rnium and New Tables, the most desirable means
of insuring life yet presented to the public.
The rates of premium, being . largely reduced,
are made as favorable to the Insurers as those of
the best Mutual Companies, and avoid all the
complications and uncertainties of Notes, Divi
dends and the misunderstandings which the latter
are apt tosanee the. Polley-Holders.
Several new and attractive tables are now pre
sented, which need only to be "understood to
prove acceptable to the public, such as the IN
COME-PRODUCING POLICY and RETURN
PREMIUM POLICY. In the former, the policy
holder not only secures a life insurance, payable
at death, but will receive, if Jiving,, after a period
of a few years, an annual income equal to ten per
cent. (10 per mt.) of the par ofkispolicy. In the
latter, the Company agrees to return to the as
sured the total amount of money he has paid in, in
addition to the amount of Ms polio,-
The attention of persons contemplating insur
ing their lives or increasing the amount of insur
ance they already have,is called to the special ad
vantages offered by the National Life Insurance
Company.
