Putin Bay,-We notice from cores
pondence to the press, that the hot weather
has caused great rush to the Islands +;
that the hotels are about all full and every
day brings new arrivals. The enterprise
of Mr.. j. p. CLARK, in starting line of
steJtmers, consisting of the Alaska and Pearl,
between the Islands and Buffalo, promises
to be n success, and is the means of bring
ing many from the East to the Islands
who would otherwise not make the trip.
Parties from the South, West and North
are becoming more favorably impressed
every year with the route via Toledo, Chiet
Justice Waite or Ruby, to the Islands.
These two boats are doing a fair share of
peopling the Islands this year.

THE CAMDEN BARBER SHOp.-We
have heard it remarked that q stranger
visiting town gains o good deal OF
his impression of the place b., his
ability to get good shave. lfsuch be
the case, Camden will compare favor
ably to any town or city in the State,
if none of her other public institutions
do not counterbalance the impression
Of comfort which 4 shave by George
Mclean, or his accomplished assistant,
Harry, will leave. George has just had
his barber chop newly painted, both
inside and out, his ceiling ornamented
with fancy colored paper, and hand
some new chandelier placed in position,
The whole surroundings of his sstab'
lishment now present quite clty-hke
appearance.

NO WAR.

Russia has agreed to submit the San
Stefano treaty to Congress of the Powers.
This is the specific sedative to calm the ex-
cited feelings of the British lion. There will
be no war. The MORNING APPEAL has seen
this outcome from the first. This comes OF
watching things. There was every reason in
the world why England and Russia should
preserve the peace. The probability is that
Russia has "caucased' the powers and ascer-
tanned in advance what the result of the
Congress will be. Hence the delay. Disraeli
will take yet another step upward. borne on
to glory by the breath of English snobbery
and toryism And yet, down in its heart OF
hearts the honest Commonalty of Britain is
with Gladstone and not with Beaconsield.
