Sub-Marine Diving.

The submarine and surface entertain mrnt which has been extensively adver- tised Ill this section to take place on July 4th, at the Lake, came off according to the programme; the attendance, howev-
 CT, was not as large as was expected; but, such as pcnics, excursions, &c., ill other directions, we would call it a fair audi cnce. The weather was such as has been
 the custom on the Fourth of July since
 our memory has served us, warm and sultry, until the usual black cloud puts in
 an appearance ill the western horizon
 and announces in laundering tones that
 it is about his turn to celebrate. The ex-
 libition took place on the premises of $. B. Camp, on the West side, near the
 North end of the Lake-the grounds be-
 ing particularly adapted for such an occa-
 sion, being well shaded and a steep in-
 cline of about seventy-fiye feet from the
 edge of the water. The entertainment
 commenced at half-past two, when MT.

He was in communication with his attendants on shore by means of telephone perfected and applied to submarine diving by Mir. Charles W. Raymond, one of the engi- neers employed by the New York Dock Department, and q friend of Mr. Fair various other performances, such as log rolling, swimming, &e. Joseph Doyle performed numerous freaks on q square log, causing 1t to turn rapidly in the wat CT and stopping at his will, going here and there at pleasure and always keep ing on top. To fully appreciate the merits of this performance, we would advise the reader to procure log and try 1t himself, as your correspondent has done previous to this, without much success. The swim mer, Frank Paul, remained In the water and performed feats as though it was his natural element; swimming gracefully and with apparent ease, diving into the water frequently and remaining under without visible apparatus, for several minutes at d time. A very fair specimen of duck shooting was given when one put in an appearance near the shore; the only bad feature was that of it's being terribly mutilated. We do not know but having it all cut up into small pieces ready for the cook, may be an improvement over the old style, but We should judge that it would be such a job as would cause the most orthodox taxidermist to swear. The electric explosion was as much Of a suc- cess as the quantity of powder and the nature of the ground would permit; fifty pounds of powder was used. but they did not have time to find proper place, con- sequently the water was not raised over fifty or sixty feet as it would have done had they had hard bottom. The Citizens Band, of Bethel, furnished music for the occasion, and greatly assisted in making the affair success. UNo.

The highest medical authorities agree that the disease called Eryspelas arises from impure state of the blood. Hence to cure this disease m licines having power to purify the blood given. To illustrate the power of Dr. D. kennedy's fANORITE REMEDY to do this precise thing. we cite the case of Mrs. Edward Meyers. wife of the Captain ofthe Steamer Columbia, of Cornell x Cos line, of Rondont, N I. This lady had been treated r months for Erysipelas of the hand, without benefit. When her hand and had become perfect mass of petriiied flesh, she consulted Dr. Kennedy, who at once amputated the arm. To prevent the return of the disease the doctor gave freely his FAVORITE REMEDY. It cleansed. her blood. warded off the Erysipelas, and she is now well. This medicine is for sale by all dealers
