Down in iny cellar, there is strug- gling through the hard, cold earth, the gorm of a littlo plant. I can iiot tell what it is, though there are- signs of promise. It is pale and frail in appear- ance, and I know'it is in a perishing . condition, lint I take it up gently, and remove it out into the yard, and plant it where tlie sun-light, may fall upon it Mark the change. The ’plant! becomes healthy and vigorous. It grows rapid- ly ; and ere long there appears a llower in bloom ; fragrant and beautiful. Lo! it is a lily. Look out yonder,’ainl poop into that dark corner of social* life. Who, or what is.I hut cursing,staggering crcaturo that poisons the air.with blas- phemy? Women and children shudder at his approach. Iio ia a l lob ospicric in infamy and guilt. Do you tell me lie is; a. human being ? • I woidd like to ar- gue that point 'with you, and to con- tend lhat ho is a demon incarnate; and yet I know you would have the best of 'the argument; because hard as it is to believo, this vile creature may bo brought to think of God. lie' may bo led to weep on account of sin. Ho may .be led to pray,.and to believe in Christ, the unseen Saviour. He may be led to Open hia heart to the Sim of righteous- ness ; and marvellous possibility! this poor, perishing outcast, quickened ami renewed, becomes ;i son of God. • More than that; it docs n.<t appear wind ho shall be, lur when .Christ shall, appear lio shall be liko Him. Jlo that hath the Son hath life; ho that hath not tho Son of God,, hath, not lifo.”—National Pulpit. . The Changing'Sea. The sea has a great charm for me. I never tire of it. Thore aro days when it lio« in. quiet sleep, half covered with isheet of mist, and its murmur- ings on the shore are but the heavy breathings of its deep repose. Again it rages in the storm—a great, massive, seething,' boiling cauldron, tho bounds of which you cannot see. The demons seem to .have it in their grasp. Hero they hurl its waters high in air. Thore they make it foam, and hiss, and boil. Yonder they drive it with terrific fury along the shore as if to engulf the whole land. In its maddening course it snaps off planks in tho breast-work built upon its borders, and levels with a single stroke of its strong hand tho bath houses loft too near.its domain. The ponder- ous ships are dashed upon tho shore in anger, and sport is mado of their de- struction. The grandeur of the storm, the howling wind and. the beating of the rain aro never known, until, walking on the shore, you learn of it from tho mighty deep. But tho storm docs not always last. The wind changes, tho clouds depart, and tho broad wings of pence cover and quiet the billowy brood into sweet tranquility. Thus from storm to sunshine, and from stillness to violent commotion,'thore are moods, and freaks, and caprices, which inako tho sea as changeful as an April sky; W.S.B. The Chip That Could .Talk, The following anecdote.*, related by John Williams, the martyr missionary to the South Sea Islands, will bp how to many of our yo.ung roadera. lie was engaged ono day bowing timber for a chapel, surrounded by many wondering natives. It was when thus employed that tho incident occutrod of which he thus tells in. his “ Missionary Enter- prise”: “ As I had. como to tho work one morning without my square, I took up a chip, and with a piece of charcoal wrote upon it a request that Mrs. Wil- liams would send me that article; I called a chief and said to him, “ ‘Friend, tako this; go to our houso and givo it to Mrs. Williams.’ “He wns a singular looking man, re- markably quick in his movements, and had been a great warrior; but in one of his baltles he bad lost an eye. Giving moan iuoxpiessiblo look with tho other, lie.said, “ ‘Take that! she will .call me a fool and scold me if I carry a chip to lier.’ “.‘No/ I replied, ‘ she will not; tako it and go immediately; I am in haste.’ “ iie took it from mo, and asked, 4 What must I say?* ... I replied, ‘ You havo nothing to say; tho chip will say all I wish.’ “ With a look of astonishment and contempt he' hold up the piece of wood, and Haiti, How .can this speak? has it a mouth?’ . • -... . . ’ I desired him to take it immediate- ly and not’spend so much time in talk- ing aboiit iu “On arriving at the Iriusc ho gavo tho chip to Mrs. Williams, who read it, throw it away, and went to tho tool-, chest, whithor tho chief, resolving to see. the ond of this mysterious business, followed hor closely. On receiving the square from her, he said, :’ “ ‘Slay, daughter, how do yon know that this is what Mr. Williams wants’?’ “ * Why/ sho replied, *did you hot bring me a chip just now ?’ *‘.fYes/ said the astonished warrior; 1 but I did not hoar it say any thing.’ ‘“ If you did not, I did,* was tho reply, ‘ for it told me what ho wanted.. And all you have to do is to return with it as quickly ila possible;* .. “With this tho chiof leaped out of tho house, nnd catching up tlio mysterious piccn .oi* wood, he ran through the set- tlement wjth the cliiji iii ono hand and the square in tho r.ther, holding them up as high as his arms would reach and shouting as ho went, , . “ See tho wisdom of theso English people!. Thoy; can make chips talk!: thoy can make, chips ts Ik !f... “ On giving mo tho square, lie wished to know how it was possible thus to con- verse with persons at a diatanco. I gavo him all tho explanation I Could, but it was to him such a mystery that he ac- tually tied a string to tho chip, hung it round his neck and wore it for some timo. For several days after we fre- quently saw him surrounded by a crowd, who wero listening with intense interest while he told them of the wonders which this chip bad performed.” \ Raratongais now a Christian land. It has its churches an J Christian schools, and is govorned wisely and weil, .by “Isaia,” a native chief. He never for- gets, in his laws and plans for tho good of his people, that “righteousness exalt- eth a nation.”—T/tc Observer. I Wonder how it will Look ? We often take our standpoint away—r away in the endless future.. Wo think, of tho time when our.deathless spirit will have been a million of years in the eternal world. Then wo bid thought in its amazing activities Hy over tlio inter- vening space, and plant our feet on that far distant point on the eternal cl ills. And then we look back oh the point of time now occupied by ourselves and all earth’s redeemed inhabitants. O how small, and yet how' great in results do many things appear, that oc- cupied, tho ‘ attention and influenced the actions of the inhabitants of earth. We see tens of thousands standing on the “ narrow, neck of land, *twixt two unbounded seas,” when suddenly tho dashing billows' of eternity’s vast ocean roll up at an unlodkcd for moment, and they are ongulpbed. And thus, though momentarily iii jeopardy, and jnvaro that life is but a probation, how do they occupy that brief moment of timo? What aro they doing? Many aro tho acknowledged servants of the God of this world. Though aware that to bo carnally minded is death—eternal death, still they fill up life’s short pYobationas tho children of this world—the servants of sin, and lo! the snares of the enemy, “ Tribulations and anguish, upon every soul of man.thnt.doeth evil, of the Jew* fir^t,” that is, those whom God w'ould fain havo made vessels of grace, having enjoyed superior religious advantages, —“ and also of tho Gentiles,” who, though less favored than the children of promise, having failed' to uso the grace received, aro sw’ept away in their sins. — Guide to Holiness. Religion. Tho development of the inner expe- riences of religion. through illustrative natural object receives fresh confirma- tion ovory year in tho impression mado at tlio Grovo by.tho presence of tlio'per- petually fresh mystery of tho sea. To tho summer residents of the Grovo it is what tho corn fields and vineyards and Galilean shores were to the dwellers in Judea whon the Saviour walked and talked with men. The sea with its illimit- able fulness always interprets tlieillimit- ablo fulness of the atonement and its cleansing purity. - Tho soriptual con- ception of having tho. “ bodies washed willi puro water,” is equally suggestive of,tlio principles of holiness upon which Ocean Grove lias been founded. " . A; E .U •' The Summer Sea. During the long hot months of Sum- mer old Ocean mostly rests. As though it would not. terrify its visitors it puls on its .best behavior,, and assumes a charming gontleness. Tame as a pet lamb tho thousands fear it not, but gather on its shores to sport in its bil- lows. How many in strange attiro are wooed to i Is -embrace,, and. leap, and dance, anti laugh, as they permit its arms to enclose them, whilo many, many more*remain upon tho strand to sit, and roll, and' dig, and play in the sand without fear of contamination from contact with tho clean, powdered rock beneath them; - What myriads of won- ders,. too, a r.« found along the shore I — tho stones, the shells, (ho.seaweed, tlie jelly-fish, the dams, tho birds, and the remnants of tho wrecks that onco wore full of promise, but at length came to an untimely end!. W. S. B. Atlantic City. The Camden & Atlantic Railroad Co, take a commendable pride in the grow- ing importance of this seaside resort. And well they may, for without tho aid of their.enterpme, no such condition of things as now appear in connection with its deserved popularity could have been brought about. This fact receives duo prominence in the columns of tho Atlantic Review, a lato number of which, now before us, is nearly filled with testimony bearing on tho excellent sanitary character of the place—not merely in tho sultry weeks of Summer, but throughout the Winter months as well. .It is a notable circumstance, that be- tween two and three hundred names of tlie most reputable physicians in.Phila- delphia, appended to certificates' and opinions, appear in the above named paper, recommending to patients the salubrious ahd stimulating atmosphere of the New Jersey, coast, as greatly ben- eficial to general health. . Inlluential papers, also, such as the Ledger and some of the New* York dai- lies, lmvo called attention to the same subject, and with tho excellent facilities rendered by tho C. Sc A. road,.in. expe- ditious and comfortable travel, we do not wonder to hear of hotels crowded and social- pleasures enjoyed, where, a few years ago, there was no attraction but tho drear and desolate beach. The Railroad Company aro now en- larging their arrangements fortheheiuryj travel expected during tho ensuing sum- mer. Parlor; cars, fast trains, through connections from Now York . and the norihorn cities, and the fact that this famed resort is only about 90 minutes ride from Philadelphia, keep prominent- tho inducement to patronize it.. If any thing moro is needed to givo the placo pre-eminence it is found in such a paper as the Itevicw, wide awake as it. seems to be, and intelligently devoted to the continued growth and popularity of At- lantic City. Philadelphia Notes. The semi-annual election of officers of the Philadelphia Preachers’ meeting took place last Monday morning, and resulted in placing Rev. D. W. Gordon in the chair. A New'Jersey brother .is generally solectcd as vice-president, and this honor fell to Rov. W. C. Stockton. Rev. S. W. Gehrett continues to occu- py the place ot secretary, and a reliable treasurer was found in Bro, John W. Sayres. Tho standing committee, tak- ing cognizance of all busines3 matters,, consists o( Revs. Kirkpatrick, Gray and S. G. Grove. Rov. G. W. McLaughlin, serves on tlio still Sabbath commit- tee, and will watch this interest closely. Dr. Rittenhouse and Rev. A. M. Wig- gins are associated with him. The temperance committee was constituted by the election of Bros. Mull in,. Buck- ley and J. S. Lame, and the new term was opened under favorable auspices. The usual monthly sermon beforo tho Preachers’ meeting, was delivered on the morning ofthooth inst., by Rov.,G. K. Morris, A. M., of Mt. -Holly, 2sr; J. The services wore • opened by singing “All hail the powerof .lesus’ nanio,” etc., and prayer by Rev. Samuel Irwin. Tho hist verse of the sixteenth Psalm was announced as the text:“ Thou wilt- shew me the path of. life : in the presence is fullness of joy ; at lliy ri.«;lit hand there are pleasures lor evermore.” llappines .1 only in God, was the preach- ers’ theme. Man is constituted with two infinities in his nature, one down- ward to depth,of woe which increase as ho departs from God; and tlio other sublime as ho rises into tho divino liko- ncss. The Bishop Amqs niemorial services were hold in Wesley Hall, at the' close of tho sermon. V Upv. Wm. J. Pax- son jiresided. Prayer was olio red by Rov.' Joseph Mason, an ably written mompir was read by Dr. To.iltl, and ad- dresses wero delivered by Dr. J. S. Por- ter, Hov. P. Cooinbe, Dr. Ivy nett and SamUel Barnes. . The Sing Sing Camp-moeting will oommcnco August 5. - - B^lroad Items, It is tlio settted purpose of tho Penn- sylvania Railroad Company to allow' no liquor-selling at any of its depots, w'here it controls the iriatter of privilege. By a preniptory order 1ast week, five deal- ers /who had occupied places in the. building at Jersey, City, w'ero cleared out. The same course is adopted at West Philadelphia, and all stations on its various lines. V _ ■ On the New York Division of tho PennsyV.yanuyRailroad,' the company is preparing '•'■to ' decorate 'the *grounds aroitnd each .depot, -with plants and flowers, grass plots and fountains.:This will prove a source of unfailing pleas- ure to those who frequent the 1 stations, and to all prssengers on passing trains. ’ H. j. Fillmanj Esq., General Passen- ger Agent of tho Pennsylvania Railroad has taken up his residence in Bordon- town, where he has secured a vory handsome property. His. business of- fice is still in Philadelphia. The Monmouth Democrat says that tho Central and Pennsylvania Railroad Companies liave entered into an ami- cable arrangement to build tho project- ed road from Squan to Long Branch, and that the •nCw lino Will bo in: run- ning order by. July. What is intended probably is the lay ing of .another track alongside tho . present ono, which the two companies shall use, a double track being very much needed, especially be- tween the points named. It is reported that a train of passen- ger cars, which are ititonded to be tho handsomest in this country, are now' building by the Pennsylvania Railroad company to be run’ between West X ’hil- adolphia and Sea Girt during tho com- ing season. They will bo put on the road early in June, and will mako tho time in ono hour and forty-livo minutes, making no stops. Tho fast lines of last summer, making tho stops at Trenton and Freehold, will also be run. The Summer Excursion books which aro issued every year by tho Pennsyl- vania Railroad Company and which tho traveling public appreciate so much, will not be ready this season before Juno 1st. This department liasbecome so extensive,'with its connections now reaching to every part of tho country, that it is a task .of no ordinary magni- tude to adjust tho business. A copy of. tlie Traveler's Official Rail- way Guide for April was deposited .with other representative publications of the day, in tho corner stoiio of a new Prot- estant Episcopal Church at Borden- Iown, N%J., lately, whereat the editor indulges in a little speculation as to what the condition of the world , will .bo when that book shall after tho lapse of a coritury or (wo, ag.iin see tho light. Ho says, “possibly tlio problem of terial navigation.may then have' been practi- cally solved and the time of tiie fastest trains shown in tlio Guide, may be merely illustrations of how slow wo travel in this present ago.” Perhaps, ho continues, the navigation guides .of that period niay contain somo such'an- nouncements as the following: “ The largo iuid powerful iridium electric acrobats, of lhe Xalional litio will leave New York for San Francisco daily, at S a. m. arriving thc;same evening at 6 r. M., adording a magnificent view of the continent by daylight. All the acrobats' of the lino arc fully equipped witli tho. automatic speed arrester and the patent trussed parachute attachment. The of-, licers and pilots have had a long prac- tical experience iii lhesclence of alight- ing. The acrobats.of this lino fly di- rectly ovor Salt Lako, avoiding the dan- ger and discomforts of tho tempestuous region of Pike’s Peak; N o stop-overs allowed!” . - Tho speed, tho writor atlds, would, after tdl, be only at the ralo of about three hundred miles an hour, and that is but half the ratio of increase which has been realized over tho old stage- coach time of a hundred years ago. • The second Sabi ia ih in June will bo “ Children’s Day,n when colloclions will •bo taken in beiialf i.if the Board of Edu- cation.; . . A Sunday-school Assembly will bo hold at Round Lake, July Sth. - local and Personal. Bishop Bowman arrived at Now York from Europe on Monday of last week. Ho has been absent nearly a year. Mrs. Olin, widow of the lato Dr. Ste- phen Olin, an eminent Christian lady, died in New York on Friday, May 2. Rev. Dr. J. L. G. McICown died at Roseville, N. J., on the 2d inst. JIo had been in failing health forsoveral months. “ With ono fell swoop” the Advocate of last week brought up all arrearages in the way of delayed memorial notices and published about ten columns full. Take him any way you please, and the editor is hard to match. D. Homer Bates, Eaq., ono of our reg- ular Summer visitors at Ocean Grovo, and whose fine cottage at tho comer of Ocean Pathway and' Beach avenuo, is now nearly finished, has connected him- self with tho new “ Union Telegraph Company,” id which he has taken 25,- 000 shares, at $100 each. : Wo under- stand he will be the presidont of this new enterprise. The New Jersey ilelhodUt, Rev. George Hughes’ new paper, hns becomo closely identified with Ocean Grove at the very start. Dr. Stokes furniahed nn inaugural pormi for the tirat number, which reads with prophetic ring, and as tho editor himself is ono of the. original members of the Association, it is probable he will pay a good deal of attention to tho in- tercstsof oursea-side city in his columns. Rev. S. Vansant, Presiding Elder of New Brunswick District, conducted love- feast at St. Paul's M. E. Church, Occan Grove/oil liist Sabbath morning, after which he preached an excellent sermon on “ The Inheritance of tho Saints.” Rev. W. S. Barnart followed in the even- ing with another able discourse. Tbo congregations throughout the day -wore very large, many strangers being pres- ent. ' . Thero has latelybeen added to tho list of Methodist Episcopal churches in Camden, N.J., a now organization called Grace Church. Rev. W. C. Stockton is tho regularly appointed pastor, and is carrying on a series of. meetings which have already resulted ill the ingather- ing of.'soula.

The Changing'Sea.

The sea has a great charm for me. I never tire of it. Thore aro days when it lio« in. qu ie t sleep, half covered with is h e e t of mist, and its m urm ur- ings on the shore are but the heavy breathings of its deep repose. Again it rages in the storm —a great, massive, seething,' boiling cauldron, tho bounds of which you cannot see. The demons seem to .have it in their grasp. Hero they hurl its waters high in air. Thore they m ake it foam, and hiss, and boil. Yonder they drive it with terrific fury along the shore as if to engulf the whole land. In its maddening course i t snaps off planks in tho breast-work built upon its borders, and levels with a single stroke of its strong hand tho bath houses loft too near.its domain. The ponder­ous ships are dashed upon tho shore in anger, and sport is mado of their de­struction.

The Chip That Could .Talk,T he following anecdote.*, related by

John W illiams, the m artyr missionary to th e South Sea Islands, will bp how to many of our yo.ung roadera. l i e was engaged ono day bowing tim ber for a chapel, surrounded by m any wondering natives. I t was when thus employed tha t tho incident occutrod of which he thus tells in . his “ Missionary Enter­prise”:

“ As I had. como to tho work one morning w ithout my square, I took up a chip, and with a piece of charcoal wrote upon it a request that M rs . Wil­liams would send me th a t article; I called a chief and said to him,

“ ‘Friend, tako th is; go to our houso and givo it to Mrs. Williams.’

“H e wns a singular looking m an, re­m arkably quick in his movements, and had been a great w arrior; but in one of his baltles he bad lost an eye. Giving m oan iuoxpiessiblo look with tho other, lie.said,

“ ‘Take th a t! she will .call m e a fool and scold me if I carry a chip to lier.’

“.‘N o / I replied, ‘ she will n o t; tako it and go im m ediately ; I am in haste.’

“ i ie took it from mo, and asked,4 W hat m ust I say?* ...

I replied, ‘ You havo nothing to s a y ; tho chip will say all I wish.’

“ W ith a look of astonishm ent and contem pt he' hold up the piece of wood, and Haiti,

How .can this speak? has it a m ou th?’ . • -... . ’ . ’

I desired him to take it im m ediate­ly and not’spend so m uch tim e in talk­ing aboiit iu

“On arriving a t the Iriusc ho gavo tho chip to Mrs. Williams, who read it, throw i t away, and w ent to tho tool-, chest, whithor tho chief, resolving to see. the ond of this mysterious business, followed hor closely. On receiving the square from her, he said, :’

“ ‘Slay, daughter, how do yon know th a t this is what Mr. W illiams w ants’?’

“ * W hy/ sho replied, * did you hot bring m e a chip just now ?’

*‘.fY es/ said the astonished w arrio r;1 but I did not hoar it say any thing.’

‘“ If you did not, I did,* was tho reply,‘ for it told me what ho wanted.. And all you have to do is to return with it as quickly ila possible;* ..

“ W ith this tho chiof leaped o u t o f tho house, nnd catching up tlio mysterious piccn .oi* wood, he ran through the set­tlem ent wjth the cliiji iii ono hand and the square in tho r.ther, holding them up as high as his arm s would reach and shouting as ho went, ,. “ See tho wisdom of theso English

people!. Thoy; can m ake chips talk!: thoy can m ake, chips ts Ik !f...

“ On giving mo tho square, lie wished to know how it was possible thus to con­verse with persons at a diatanco. I gavo him all tho explanation I Could, b u t it was to him such a mystery that he ac­tually tied a string to tho chip, hung it round his neck and wore it for some timo. For several days after we fre­quently saw him surrounded by a crowd, who wero listening with intense interest while he told them of the wonders which this chip bad performed.” \

R aratongais now a Christian land. I t has its churches an J Christian schools, and is govorned wisely and weil, .by “Isaia,” a native chief. H e never for­gets, in his laws and plans for tho good o f his people, th a t “ righteousness exalt- eth a nation.”—T/tc Observer.

I Wonder how it will Look ?We often take our standpoint away—r

away in the endless future.. Wo think, of tho tim e when our.deathless spirit will have been a million of years in the eternal world. Then wo bid thought in its amazing activities Hy over tlio inter­vening space, and plant our feet on th a t far distant point on the eternal cl ills. And then we look back oh the poin t of time now occupied by ourselves and all earth’s redeemed inhabitants.

O how small, and yet how' g reat in results do m any things appear, th a t oc­cupied, tho ‘ attention and influenced the actions of the inhabitants of earth. We see tens of thousands standing on the “ narrow, neck o f land, *twixt two unbounded seas,” when suddenly tho dashing billows' of eternity’s vast ocean roll up at an unlodkcd for moment, and they are ongulpbed. And thus, though m om entarily iii jeopardy, and jnvaro tha t life is but a probation, how do they occupy th a t brief m om ent of timo? W hat aro they doing? Many aro tho acknowledged servants of the God of this world. Though aware that to bo carnally minded is death—eternal death, still they fill up life’s short pYobationas tho children of this world—the servants of sin, and lo ! the snares of the enemy, “ Tribulations and anguish, upon every soul of m an.thnt.doeth evil, of the Jew* fir^t,” th a t is, those whom God w'ould fain havo m ade vessels of grace, having enjoyed superior religious advantages, —“ and also of tho Gentiles,” who, though less favored than the children of promise, having failed' to uso the grace received, aro sw’ep t away in their sins. — Guide to Holiness.

Religion.Tho development of the inner expe­

riences of religion. through illustrative natural object receives fresh confirma­tion ovory year in tho impression mado at tlio Grovo by.tho presence of tlio 'per­petually fresh mystery o f tho sea. To tho sum m er residents of the Grovo it is what tho corn fields and vineyards and Galilean shores were to the dwellers in Judea whon the Saviour walked and talked with men. The sea with its illim it­able fulness always interprets tlieillim it- ablo fulness of the atonem ent and its cleansing purity. - Tho soriptual con­ception of having tho. “ bodies washed willi puro water,” is equally suggestive of,tlio principles of holiness upon which Ocean Grove lias been founded.

The Summer Sea.

During the long hot months of Sum ­m er old Ocean mostly rests. As though it would not. terrify its visitors it puls on its .best behavior,, and assumes a charm ing gontleness. Tam e as a pet lamb tho thousands fear it not, but gather on its shores to sport in its bil­lows. H o w m any in strange attiro are wooed to i Is -embrace,, and. leap, and dance, anti laugh, as they perm it its arms to enclose them, whilo many, many more*remain upon tho strand to sit, and roll, a n d ' dig, and play in the sand without fear of contam ination from contact with tho clean, powdered rock beneath them; - W hat myriads of won­ders,. too, a r.« found along the shore I — tho stones, the shells, (ho.seaweed, tlie jelly-fish, the dam s, tho birds, and the rem nants of tho wrecks that onco wore full of promise, but a t length came to an untim ely end!.

Atlantic City.The Camden & Atlantic Railroad Co,

take a commendable pride in the grow­ing im portance of this seaside resort. And well they may, for without tho aid of their.en terpm e, no such condition of things as now appear in connection with its deserved popularity could have been brought about.

This fact receives duo prom inence in the columns of tho Atlantic Review, a lato num ber of which, now before us, is nearly filled with testim ony bearing on tho excellent san ita ry character of the place—not merely in tho sultry weeks of Sum m er, but throughout the W inter m onths as well.

. I t is a notable circumstance, th a t be­tween two and three hundred nam es of tlie most reputable physicians in.Phila­delphia, appended to certificates' and opinions, appear in the above named paper, recommending to patients the salubrious ahd stim ulating atm osphere of the New Jersey, coast, as greatly ben­eficial to general health. .

Inlluential papers, also, such as the Ledger and some of the New* York dai­lies, lmvo called attention to the sam e subject, and with tho excellent facilities rendered by tho C. Sc A. road,.in . expe­ditious and comfortable travel, we do n o t wonder to hear of hotels crowded and social- pleasures enjoyed, where, a few years ago, there was no attraction b u t tho drear and desolate beach.

The Railroad Company aro now en­larging their arrangem ents fortheheiuryj travel expected during tho ensuing sum ­mer. Parlor; cars, fast trains, through connections from Now York . and the norihorn cities, and the fact th a t this famed resort is only about 90 m inutes ride from Philadelphia, keep prominent- tho inducem ent to patronize it.. I f any thing moro is needed to givo the placo pre-eminence it is found in such a paper as the Itevicw, wide awake as it. seems to be, and intelligently devoted to the continued growth and popularity o f At­lantic City.

Philadelphia Notes.The semi-annual election o f officers

of the Philadelphia Preachers’ m eeting took place last Monday morning, and resulted in placing Rev. D. W. Gordon in the chair. A New'Jersey brother .is generally solectcd as vice-president, and this honor fell to Rov. W. C. Stockton. Rev. S. W. Gehrett continues to occu­py the place ot secretary, and a reliable treasurer was found in Bro, John W. Sayres. Tho standing committee, tak­ing cognizance of all busines3 matters,, consists o( Revs. K irkpatrick, Gray and S. G. Grove. Rov. G. W. M cLaughlin, serves on tlio still Sabbath commit­tee, and will watch this interest closely. Dr. Rittenhouse and Rev. A. M. W ig­gins are associated with him . The temperance committee was constituted by the election o f Bros. Mull in,. Buck­ley and J . S. Lame, and the new term was opened under favorable auspices.

The usual m onthly serm on beforo tho Preachers’ meeting, was delivered on the morning o fth o o th inst., by Rov.,G. K. Morris, A. M., o f Mt. -Holly, 2sr; J. The services wore • opened by singing “All hail the pow erof .lesus’ nanio,” etc., and prayer by Rev. Samuel Irwin. Tho hist verse of the sixteenth Psalm w as announced as the te x t :“ Thou wilt- shew m e the path of. life : in the presence is fullness of joy ; a t lliy ri.«;lit hand there are pleasures lor everm ore.” llapp ines .1 only in God, was the preach­ers’ theme. Man is constituted with two infinities in his nature, one down­ward to depth,of woe which increase as ho departs from G od; and tlio o ther sublime as ho rises into tho divino liko- ncss.

B^lroad Items,

I t is tlio settted purpose of tho Penn­sylvania Railroad Company to allow' no liquor-selling a t any of its depots, w'here it controls the iriatter of privilege. By a preniptory order 1 ast week, five deal­ers /who had occupied places in th e . building a t Jersey, City, w'ero cleared out. The same course is adopted a t W est Philadelphia, and all stations on its various lines. V _ ■“

On the New York Division of tho PennsyV.yanuyRailroad,' the company is preparing '•'■ to ' decorate 'the * grounds aroitnd each .depot, -with p lants and flowers, grass plots and foun tains.: This will prove a source of unfailing pleas­ure to those who frequent th e 1 stations, and to all prssengers on passing trains. ’

H . j . Fillmanj Esq., General Passen­ger Agent of tho Pennsylvania Railroad has taken up his residence in Bordon- town, where he has secured a vory handsome property. His. business of­fice is still in Philadelphia.

The Monmouth Democrat says that tho Central and Pennsylvania Railroad Companies liave entered into an am i­cable arrangem ent to build tho project­ed road from Squan to Long Branch, and that the • nCw lino Will bo in: run­ning order by. July. W hat is intended probably is the lay i ng of .another track alongside tho . present ono, w hich the two companies shall use, a double track being very m uch needed, especially be­tween the points nam ed.• I t is reported that a train of passen­ger cars, which are ititonded to be tho handsomest in this country, are now' building by the Pennsylvania Railroad company to be run’ between W est X’hil- adolphia and Sea G irt during tho com­ing season. They will bo p u t on the road early in June, and will m ako tho time in ono hour and forty-livo m inutes, m aking no stops. Tho fast lines of last summer, making tho stops a t Trenton and Freehold, will also be run.

The Summer Excursion books which aro issued every year by tho Pennsyl­vania Railroad Company and which tho traveling public appreciate so much, will not be ready this season before Juno 1st. This departm ent liasbecome so extensive,'with its connections now reaching to every part of tho country, that it is a task .of no ordinary m agni­tude to adjust tho business.

A copy of. tlie Traveler's Official Rail- way Guide for April was deposited .with other representative publications of the day, in tho corner stoiio of a new Prot­estant Episcopal Church a t Borden- Iown, N% J., lately, w hereat the editor indulges in a little speculation as to what the condition of the world , will .bo when that book shall after tho lapse of a coritury or (wo, ag.iin see tho light. Ho says, “possibly tlio problem of terial navigation.m ay then have' been practi­cally solved and the tim e of tiie fastest trains shown in tlio Guide, may be merely illustrations of how slow wo travel in this present ago.” Perhaps, ho continues, th e navigation guides .of that period niay contain somo su c h 'an ­nouncements as the following: “ The largo iuid powerful iridium electric acrobats, of lhe X alional litio will leave New York for San Francisco daily, a t S a . m. arriving thc;same evening a t 6 r.

The acrobats.of this lino fly di­rectly ovor Salt Lako, avoiding the dan­ger and discomforts of tho tempestuous region of P ike’s Peak; N o stop-overs allowed!” • . - •

Tho speed, tho writor atlds, would, after tdl, be only a t the ralo of about three hundred miles an hour, and th a t is but half the ratio o f increase which has been realized over tho old stage­coach time of a hundred years ago.

'. Songs of the Sea,

Most persons, acquainted with Rev. Dr. Stokes, President of tho 0 . G. C.-M. Association,, are aware, of the fact that he has occasionally' m ade the sea a sub­ject of contem plation, arid produced some fine thoughts in the form of poet­ic im agery and description, on its ev6r varying,m oods; but, that, ho had writ­ten enough 0 1 1 this single theme: to con- stitnte ii m onograph, embracing twenty sis separate and distinct conceptions, we did not suppose .until, the publica­tion was placed in out-hand last iveek.

Its. general title is thatigiveri.tibove, with tho. im prin t, “ Ocean Grove, N. J., 1870." I t opens with an unwritten, but. expressive and beautiful’ poem present­ed in pictorial art—r11'sea' shell ly in g 011 the sandy beach, arid within its limits, a sunrise scene, suggestive of dreamy twilight, .merging into the manifested glories of 11 Sum m er morning. Besides this there are n ine or ten other etchings a few of w hich are familiar,’others new, and in unison witlf the several topics oil which the. au thor’s muse expended sohie of its pen t exhuberariee. :

Sumo of tho poems included are but fragmentary, while several possess a fin-, tailed'elegance in diction, which make-* them ,gems worthy of the fino typo graphical spiting here given to them? In the collection there is one production of considerable length, tho story of "R uthcna Vernon,” in which far-fetch ed fancy interweaves ft downright lovo affair, the course of which, as usual, is obstructed, but after patient devotion, and tho perils of a well sketched ship­wreck, the ending is m utually felici tons.

To say that the doctor him self super­intended its ornate execution, and that our friend, John A. Haddock, of the Rowley & Chew Printing House, Phila- delphia, did th e :\york in th e ’finest style accounts for the exceptional neatness of the work. The only thing we find to com plain of is- that enough copies of "Songs of the Sea” have not been prin t­ed to go around the entire circle of friends aud adm irers who would appre­ciate such a present.

A Good Mea Abandoned,

Sea Grove, for two or throe years en­joyed an adveiititous celebrity which it now seems to be losing as rapidly as it was gained .; .T h e , location possessed extraordinary advantages and, means o f access were-all -that could be desired. Mr. W billdin with the powerful patron­age .of tiie' Presbyterian Church . a t his back, m ade large and libera! oiitlay to establish a moral and religious seaside resort som ewhat after the m anner of Ocean Grove, the constitution and man­agem ent of which werecarefiilly.studied and closely imitated. And to place the new enterprise beyond all contingcn cies, and m ake it ivliat its projectors hoped, Mr, John W anuniaker lent very largely the aid of his genius in tho direction of general advertising. A bet­ter chance, 1 1 0 placo started,; combining health,''recreation and devotion, ever had for perm anent prosperity than Sea Grove with i ts ’sen. and- bay outlook, its rom antic lake of lilies, its pavilion for preaching, arid its absolute exclusion of intoxicating liquor. There was a t ono period a furorein buying lotsand build­ing family cottages and line hotels. I.list s e a s o n , however, with u daily steamer added to the lino accommoda­tions of tbo W est Jersey Railroad, the place began to w:ui«.

Tlio name was changed to “Cape May Point," anil a dugreo of''s ty Iti’1. iii hotel arrangem ents su itab le .to tbo fashion­able demands of “sni-iely" put* ou Religious meetings under Ibese eiivum-' rtnnees were :i snrt »»f inenngliiily, and Voted .11 boie.

W ith a .splendid sleaiiier making dai­ly trips, and unusual railroad facilities besides, enough people could no t bo collected to half fill tho boarding houses last year'. Tho religions feature is now

practically abandoned, and so near Cape May City, as it lies, the strictly tem perance idea, we fear will soon be­come a dead letter.

There may be reasons fo r this whole­sale modification o f agrftnd program m e' which -we do riot apprehend ; bu t it is our deliberate opinion that; more free, active mid persistent efforts in the way 'of soul-saving, would have, saved the character of the placo and crowned it yearly ivith honor iind glory. . T ho m anagem ent have been .’m ost generous towards M ethodist brethren,-in allowing participation in religious services,-but if. they could have gone so far as to have sanctioned an old fashioned camp- meeting in the vicinity o f theirspleridid “ Pavilion,” it would fmve wonderfully helped to popularize.tho place.'

The fato .of Ocean Grove is foreahad- owed in the pietsire we have draw n, if its intensely religious character is per-, m itten to wane. W ith all our modorn improvements, lot us hold fast to the old landmarks. Salvation is the 0 1 1 0 supremely im portant cletnunt of our

ontinued success. ■

The form': is enlarged beyond th a t o f the itVonton sheet,-of ivhich it is in some respects .i> continuation, o r successor, and. is printed a t the snnie olliee, and with,the same' degree ,of typogrnphieal tnste and excellence, which m ad e . the Trenton MelKodist “a; th ing of beau ty.”

This feature,-in the first place, is not the least among those factors which en­ter into the question of newspaper pop­ularity and. success. A nother and higher elem ent looking to the sam e end, is-what m ight bo called "sett-roprn"—a field o f operation, large enough for ail desirable -expansion! This the new paper will amply- possess, even its sphere is bounded by the State of New Je’rsey, ana Us patronage o'onfined to the two Conferences of which it, becomes in a certain seiiso the local organ . B u t its circulation will m ost likely transcend these limits, for the th ird and last essen­tial in this combination of things —a, ready pen, with . the best adapta­tion to rrieeta public, dem and, is no t wanting .in the editor ansi publisher. We, therefore, hazzard little , iu predict­

i n g for the new paper a reasonably largo share of cordial support.

The initial number, as a specim en of Bro. Hughes’ plan, will strike overy- b'ody with favor. Knowing som ething of the embarrassments attendant on a 'beginning, in such an enterprise »s this, we think, he hits done wonders, and al­most reached the acm e of excellence a t the yery start, leaving him self but little m argin for im provement in the fiitu ra ; b u t of this ive shall, be able to judge as his .m achinery gets iiitb .regular running order. I t is n o t , only worth readirig-—every article and item, but, on account of its pictorial illustrations, iri- ehidiiVg a pprtrjiit .of Bishop Scott,-aiid a cut of- the first M, E . Churcli in New Jersey, with .an accompanying histori­cal sketch by Judge Yard ofTrenton, it should be, and we think will be preserv­ed' in-the thousand of households, in which it has been distributed.

A single half dollar from each for a. years’ sirbscripti6n,will be the beat send- off the people can give this new claim­an t for their patronage, The outlay w;ill not be found burdensome, and. tho return, in such a bright,, beautiful and instructive visitor, will prove a large gain to young or old.

Tsnth. Anniversary,.I t will bo ten 3 'eare, on the evening of

Ju ly 31st, since our first little informal religious scrvice on these grounds. F or three or four years past we have cele­brated. this event by special services adapted to the day. W e shall do so this year, atid ns this com pletes our first licediie by the sea, it seems appro­priate thnt som ething a little more m arked nnd .particular, should distin­guish this occasion. The : exercises m ight be varied, and especially, the m onum ental decorations should bo more extended. In what shall the ex­ercises consist ? W hat shall the perm a­nent m onum ental decorations be? Wo shall be glad to receive suggestions from any soureo ; anclns far ns they , may bo practicable and consistent with other pla ns to assist in carrying them into'of- feet. - ' - .

The m onum ents already set up, on those soyeral. occasions, nro four large vases, otic in Memorial Park, Centen-. 11 ini l ‘ark ; to the 1‘ioneer Women, and the one. in front o fth e 1‘roachcr‘s stand, in Iho rear of th« nodiforiom , all of which are thingn of beauty.. A contin nation of these, or other decorations for a term of years, will greatly improve and increase tho attractions o f our grounds.

Late Publications,

The American Sunday-School Union hits ju st issued a. volume which claims a degree of attention beyond th a t given to ordinary . publications; I t is entitled “Anglo-American Bible Revision, by 'niembers of the Am erican -Revision Com m ittee.” Of the twenty-seven em inent' scholars who compose Ihe com m ittee on th is side the Atlantic, wo liavo articles in this-book from n ine­teen of them , explaining the scope, and indicating the progress o f the work' in hand. They aro associated With fifty- two literary men and divines of Great Britain; in this, the greatest biblical en­terprise of modern tim es—tlio revision of the.authorized' version of the. H oly Scriptures. The two committees have been prosecuting tlieir labors since 1871, and expect to subriiit to the world tho result of their ten or twelve years’ work abotit, 1882, isi a thoroughly revis­ed Bible. O fthe necessity of this, there is'less difference of opinion every year. The sensitiveness felt about interm ed­dling With a book so fam iliar to all English speaking peoplo since the days of King James, is no t so great at. pres­ent aa formerly. W here i t does exist, ti perusal of the volume before 'us, we think, will help to overcome all preju­dice, and a,waken the deepest, interest among Bibical scholars; in the fur­therance of tlm work. I t m ay be order­ed from .1122 Chestnut street, Philadel­phia, or ,8 and 10 Bible H ouse; New York, Price, 75 cents.

F or distinctively Tem perance, books, we have usually looked to the press of the N ational Tem perance Society, New York, but we are glad to notice that o ther houses are now giving attention to this kind of. literature. In a very beautiful arid well written' volume of nearly 300 pages, antitlcd “ Dr. Reri- wiek’s Medicines,” by Mrs. A. IC D un­ning, published by the Am erican Sun­day-school Uiiion, we have a teiriper- arice story of varym arked ability. The lust entrenchm ent o f the ram foe, will be. found in respectable tippling, under the plausible prescription of a popular family doctor, and his responsibility is shown to be no less thari th a t of the li­quor seller, when he no t only sanctions, but creates and cultivates in his pa­tients, tho use of stim ulating bovorageu. In exposing such danger Mrs. Dunning' has rendered excellent servico in this book. A touch of rom ance, nnd the successful ending.of a love afiUir thrown in, will of course, m ultiply tho num ber of its readers, and m ake it as things go, a m ost attractive volume for the Sun­day-school library. Considering iti! healthful tone and high m oral senti­ment,, we cunnot but commend it.. A nother juvenile story,, from the same publishers, and by a w riter already well known, Mrs.1 E m i|y Hartley, is entitled “Odd momenta of tho Willoughby Boys” —presenting a -good deal of pleasing and valuable inform ation in natural sc ience; for the .“beys” 'are o f an in­quiring turn of m ind iind in their labo­ratory, and out-do or life, are ju s t such hearty, genial fellows, as o ther boys, if not idle and selfish will be likely to ad­m ire and im itate. The book id well il­lustrated, and very entertaining.

W hen the Garner was ao popular as a music book at Ocean Grove last season, there was:, constant dem and for a pub­lication containing th e words only. This expressed w ant tiie pu.ilishor. Mr. John J . Hood, has now met, having is­sued a hym n edition, csntaining about ■170 pieces,. a l l , suitable, arid m any of them very finely adapted to prayer meeting, Sunday-schools and gospel tem perance work, The baok-is neatly printed,-strongly bound, and sells a t $10 per hundred copies.

Among the issues o f new series of de­nom inational and religious tracts by the M, E .'Book Concern iii New York, wo have the following: Support of Mis­sions, by Bishop H a r r i s “ The-M aster Saith,” by A: Disciple ; W hnt K atie did, a beautiful sk e tch ; First- words for a 'Probationer, by Dr. J .

Mrs. K: E. IioJ-'d ar.d her sister, Miss Em m a M. Johnston, arrived a t tho Grove la s t week, and are busily engaged I n fitting up tho beautiful Terrace Cot­tage on Ocean Pathway, whore they have'furnished the best eiitertaiuinent for th a t class o f guests a t Ocean Grove, wlso prefer the t o o : in regard to loca­tion, accommodations and society. Terraco Cottage is pre-em inent for a l l these advantages,- and Mi-s. B. can now be addressed a t the Grove by distant friends, who would like to engage their rooms in advance.

Rev. Jam es Mathews, tho evangelist of New York, has moved to his cottage in the Grove for the season.

. E d it o r ok t h e O c e a n G r o v e R e co rd . —H aving noticed in the MonmofUh £angcra l'a (last week’s issue,(May 1st),, an article referring to a tem perance m eeting held a t Asbury P ark on the 23d ult., an account'of which was pub­lished in T h e R e c o w ), and n o t boing able to determ ine who its author is, we m ost respectfully beg leave through your columns to ask the editor o f ihe Montrwuth Democrat, y/\)l he please pub­lish the ..name of its au thor? I f riot,, please send trio the author's nam e by. mail, and I will inform the society con­fidentially.; I t may save us from dis­grace, in the future, as we desire to have no fellowship or association with sipy person, who seems to be so familiar with the devil, as te know tlmt when lie got sick he joined . the tem peranco so­ciety.

Well, we shan’t: complain about t lm t; Jesus was charged nearly, 1,000'years ago. with the same, evil or crimo of allowing his disciples to eat with unwashed hands, and -he 'did. not complain only ci' those characters who thought they were too righteous to coed, reformation. .

But, inasmuch, as tho; substance o f the whole article is made up-of taunts we do n o t feel disposed to reply to it, .

Now all wo . desire is to know the nam e of the. author, th a t sve m ay.al­ways bo prepared to lot him atone and avoid such. c6mpaiiy,a8 we have resolv: ed to m aintain a reform ation in ,our habits.

Atlantic House,The members of tho Ocean Grovo

Association on assembling for th« semi­annual m eeting on next Tuesday, will dine a t the A tlantic House, by special invitation of Miss M. A. Young, propri­etor. T hey will m ake the- A tlantic their headquarters during thoir stay.

This house hns juBt passed through a process of, interior renovation which adtk’ to its elegant appearance; Partic­ularly is this noticeable in the spacious dining, parlor and its surroundings. The walls and ceiling have been touched up iri: agreeable tints, arid the pillars arid doors paipted in Mr. Farroll’s artistic Btylc No departm ent of the Work of decoration comes amiss to H enry, and he has rarely tarried out -a neater job th an the above. This favorite house; has proved, a pleiisaiit homo for Dr. iStokes and Secretfiry Evans and family during tbo winteK and is now in tho m ost adm irable order,for its xisiial heavy sum m er business. Transient visitors generally stop thero, as it in always ready for the entertainm ent of those who call.

For thfi nocessarics of lifo as well as many of its luxuries, the people depend iu !• great m easure on a reliable r.nd experienced grocer, such a m an for in ­stance as J. T .Im lay, who has now boon so long in the business hereabouts that everybody knows him , uud I1 0 knows like a book, what will su it them. Tho fa c t th a t liis business is constantly eo larging is a good argum ent that his cus­tomers in iiolli Asbtify.Pilrk: iiiiil Otieml Ureive are satisfied they cannot do better thaif give hirii-.tlieir patronage. As our Suinnier visiters are beginning to arrive, and among them a num ber of new fam­ilies, we suggest that it may be an im ­portant item in their comfoit to m ake his acquaintantance aa soon aa possible.

House Furnishing.The card of Mr. John A. Githoris,

which will bo found.in this paper, may be accepted in all its representations, ns literally correct, and in evory way reli­able, The oldest establishment in this line, in Asbury Park, could hardly have, m aintained its pro-eminonce year after year, and increased in prosperity, as it- has doria, but for one foundation prin­ciple o f business, which is perfectly honest and fair dealing with all custom­ers, and.- a determ ination to be fully prepared, both in variety arid style of goods and ruling price , to satisfy the wants of the community. Those who have once dealt with this enterprising m erchant or his gentlem anly and ac- commodating olerks, are always sure to . come again. 'H is present facilities to fill orders, large or small, nro greater- tlmri ever beforej and as m ight bo o x - . pected, the season’s trade has begun briskly, and promises to bo unusually largo, -

Plumbing as a Science,

Tlio ordinary plum ber is regarded in’ the general ns 0 necessary evil. H o is only called in like the doctor, or nurse, bn an emergency, and overybody enter­tains a notion tha t even if he is . defi­cient in mechanical skill, he is an adept when it conies to footing up the items, and collccting liis extraordinary bill. W ith Mr. Uriah W hite, however, tlio case is somewhat different. He has had a great deal to do with the devel­opm ent of Park and Grove, in securing good family water supply, and more recently in assisting the hotel and cot­tago people in the difficult problem of drainage. By tiie aid of tho best mod­ern investigations, and with approved scientific treatises on the subject in hand, ho is a safe authority in m atters of this kind. We looked over some of his books a few days ago, and believe tluit in the futuie, much moro than in the past,, the good judgm ent of the plum ber will havo 1 0 be callcd into requisition. Tho sanitary considera­tions involved are all im portant, and to this point Mr. W hite is directing espe­cial thought and study a t preaont.

Young People’s Meetings;

Boating, bathing, riding, walking along the beach or through the grovo and forest, aro all beautiful, innocent, and healthful, and for all these thcro is am ple time. But these alouo are not sufficient. The soul m ust be fed, and the religious wants of the young peoplo m ust be mot.

To provide for these wants the young people hold morning meetings conduc- . ted by ono of their own num ber, in which they exercise with less restraint than in the largor meetings. These meetings were very profitablo and suc­cessful last.year. May the young peo­ple this year succced in building up tlieir own souls in the faith once deliv­ered to tho saints, and also of leading marij' of thoir companions to the Cross. Such service will sweeton every pleas­ure, and add a charm to Occan Grovo, which to tho-'U it ncvor possessed b e - . fore.

What an Intelligent Physician Says,

Dr. K. C. Strother, of Monroe,. La., who has been n medical p ractitioner, for over (wonty-five years, in a letter to ! the undersigned, say s: *‘I have heard of . your 'CompoundOxygenTreatment* for . some - length' of time in a casual, inci­dental way, but it is only within the last; few monilrn th a t I have had my atten­tion particularly called to it in a way that lias aroused mv professiorvaUiuter- est. I liave watched its wouderiul vital- : iziug power in two or three instances in which tiie patients were using -the ‘Home Treatm ent.’ One of thene pa­tients wua a sister, and her rapid im ­provem ent from a low condition of ner­vous debility and muacular prostration, . resultini: from severe acuto diReivso, was almost miraculous. Y our little work, ‘The Compound Oxygen Treatm ent, its mode of action and results,1 lias fallen, into my handn, and tho therapeutical and pathological views therein inculea- ’ ted being to a great extent in accord with what theory and experience have been impressing on mo, I havo read it with unusual care and interest. Indeed,I have read and re-read it with a great deal of pleasure. I am sure you have found a curative agent of incalculable remedial and vitalizing power, and adapted to a wide range of diseases.”.
