their sports with so keen relish, that IL was
difficult at times, to define where youth closed
and maturity commenced A sumptuous re-
past, followed by refreshments of choice and
various kinls, added fresh stimulus to their
hilaIty, and when the fast declining Sun an
nounced that the day was well nigh spent, all
wished that "Joshua like" they could command
"Old Sop to stay his course and add just few
more hours to a day memorable for its plea

been erected there during the past six weeks,
and large number of tents constructed through
the grove where the religious services are 10 be
held to accommodate the large number OF peo-
pie expected to be present. This place is own
ed by Philadelphia, baltimore, Washington and
Wilmington Methodsts, who seem determined
to develop its natural advantages and make IL
attractive. 1t s certainly fine place. Direct
lY in its front il the Atlantic and beach ut-
surpassed for beauty. In the rear is the camp
meeting grove, and directly TO the right is Re-
hoboth bay-a fine sheet of water, filled with
fish, terrapins, etc, and perfectly safe for boat

, places in it can he found with more than fouf
feet of water. To add to all these attractions,
there is lake pure fresh water in close prox-
unity to the ocean"

r When other people offer
, Their clothes for you to try,
Think of these words--Remember-
