made the most vigorous efforts ill our power, by petitions

are in necessitous circumstances, but thus far without
success. Each branch of the National Legislature, at.
different times, passed a bill with that object; but with

complished. Whether anything will over bo done, wo
<*imiiot venture to predict. Although not absolutely

started from Cooper's Point, Camden, tor the
shores ol the “deep blue sea.” .This mam
innth train was drawn by two locomotives,
and as it passed through
Horse, Longacouung, lAteo, Waterford,
Winslow, Tlainniontoii, Egg Harboi
Citv and Absecum, it excited the
admiration and applause. of the
populate and was, in several places, saluted
with the usual explosive material at the com
mand of the patriotic. At Ash and, the resi
dence of Mr.Henszey was magnificently deco
rated with flags and other paraphernalia of
patiiothm,and at various other poW alongthe
route the roar ofmusketry, pistols,fire-crackere,
&c., was heard above the deep rumblings
the rolling train. The country looked beau
tiful, and rich fields of ripening grain almost
“ready for the reaper’s gathering hand
waveil like coming and retreating ripples on
Hie bosom of a sylvan lake, while the crops of
growing corn seemed to look up and smile at
the fostering hand of Providence, The day,,
100, was serene and invigorating^jiist such a
day- mi was calculated to give appre
ciation to the pleasures in store for the
livht-liearted and happy throng who were
tlnmdering over the iron track toward
the “mighty sea,” ail institution winch about
one-lialt ox the number had never beheld.
Beck’s Band laid been engaged tor the occa
sion, and as the train passed point after
point, some of the excursionists could hear a*
strain •which, was fortunate enough to
escape being knocked into “pi” by flwdMae
clouds of dust the train “kicked up, but as a
general thing the “harmony ot the hand was
absorbed by the dust” long before it could
reach the ears of one-lialf the musical critics
at Atlantic City, the train stopped
in front of the splendid new Sea View Rouse,
erected-especially for the accommodation of
excursTSl parties, and the disembarkation
commenced. This presented a scene ot anima
tion and interest which has not been wit
nessed at that place before. Men, women and
children emerged from the cars, like the long
train Of emigrants moving across a prairie,
with hut one objective point .in view, and t-nay
was a room to dust in, wash, comb
and spruee up for dinner. but, soon
the spacious halls, rooms, &c., were filled to
overflowing, and the cry was. Still they
come!” The ladies were furnished with all
necessary appliances, so soon as the excite
ment had subsided winch such an immense
crowd had produced upon the sensitive nerves
of Mr. Komgmacher and his house-keepers,
and the gentlemen were met with attentive
waiters, dust-brush ill hand, and shown to the
wash-room where they soon rid them
selves of the dust that had accumulated in
their ears, eyes, and upon their liands ana
f'tICGS.
But one motive now seemed to actuate every
one. That was to make each other as happy
as possible, and to see who could get a seat at
the flrst table. But, by a wise arrangement ot
Mr. Childs and Mr. Muekle, which was faith
fully earned out by the proprietors and the
servants, the ladies and children were seated
lirst.and they filled the capacious dining room
to its utmost capacity. After the ladies had
finished, the tables were immediately sur
rounded by those of.tlie sterner sex, and the
eating was kept up until nearly the time liad.
arrived for returning borne.
3he bathing was grand, and many enjoyed
its luxury to their hearts’ content. One ot the
most pleasant features of the whole occasion
was that not a single individual of the whole
tifteeh hundred who availed themselves ot Mr.
Childs’s invitation became in the slightest de
gree affected by a too free indulgence in in
toxicating drinks. Hence, no accident oc
curred,and no one was in anywise endangered.
About 3 o’clock half the dining room was
cleared of its tables, chairs, &c., the movable
partition walls put up, and tliu lovers oi Terp
reeboreau exercise commenced “tripping the
light fantastic toe,” to the “sound of flutes
and soft recorders,” if trombones, big drums,
cornets, picealoes, horns, bassoons, &c., can
he thus designated. Whilst this was going on
in one part., the hungry were satiating their
appetites iii the other, and “all went merry as
a marriage hell.
-The hour arriving for departure home,«
scramble commenced for seats in the cars, and
again the tide of humanity was seen sweeping
along the streets, coming from every direction.
In half an hour the multitude were comforta
bly seated, and, at twenty minutes past seven,
they were again on their way home, invigo
rated and retreslied by their visit to the sea.
Everything passed off pleasantly, nothing
occurring to mar the happiness and pleasures
of the dav. The whole thing was a complete
success, and it must he a source of gratifica
tion and delight to Mr. Childs to ieel and
know that he has thus contributed so much to
wards cementing the ties oi friendship be
tween himself and those in his employ. It is
an exhibition of those characteristics which
are not measured by moneyed considerations,
and which will find their reward in the affec
tions of the beneficiaries. n

Fighting, AC.
Some people generally celebrate holidays by
gettingfull of whisky and. creating disturb
nnces upon tlie streets. Yesterday, according
to the police reports, there were very few ar
rests for drunkenness, and no disturbances of
any consequence. , , ...
'l’he firemen, as will be seen bv tlie long list
of fires which occurred during yesterday, were
running about nearly all day .and various com
panies took occasion to indulge in races; and
a war of words, in which those who partici
pated made first-class blackguards ot thein- :
selves, occurred frequently. The only serious
disturbance which is reported by the police
was a collision between the Fame Hose and
the Harmonv Engine, at Twentieth and South
streets, in which a man is said to have been
shot. No further particulars are given.
Fireworks.
For over five years the people residing near
Fifth and Tasker streets have . been accus

tlie scene. Last evening the neighborhood
was in a blaze of light. .
Rockets, torpedoes, blue-lights, pm-whecLs,
fire-crackers, in fact almost every article
manufactured by the pyrotechnist, were
brought fort h and set oil'to the delight of thou
sands. The Jefferson Cornet Band was in at
tendance, and pleasure was the: watchword of
the evening. All passedoff harmoniously,and
at a late hour the scene closed and the neigh
borhood was soon at rest. Much credit is due
to those who hail charge of tht! display.
