ESTHER, THE BEAUTIFUL QUEEN.-Thc can
tata or oratorio of Esther was performed, in the
Town Hall, Bel Air, on Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings On Tuesday evening the hall was
literally packed by nearly four hundred persons,
and many went away, unable to find seats or
even standing room in the hall. At the close of
the performance DR.. Crane announced that the
oratorio would be repeated on Wednesday eve
ming. On that occasion the crowd was not SO
large, although the hall was well filled.
The performance was one of the most popular
ever given in Bel Air, greatly exceeding the ex-
pectations of nearly all who witnessed it, The
singing was very good, some of the performers
having excellent and well-tmined voices. The
characters were we'll sustained, and the acting
was creditable for amateurs. The dresses of the
performers and the stage appointments glitter
ed as in oriental splendor, and it was matter of
surprise that performance npon so extensive a
scale could be carried through so successfully
by persons wholly unused to such affairs. Some
of the tablcaus were very striking and effective.
The credit of the entire arrangements is due
to Mrs. j. A. Watson, daughter of DR.. Crane,
pastor of the Mountain Christian Church, the
lady herself playing the Accomplishments upon
the organ and directing the oratorio. The pro-
ceeds, 1t is stated, are for benevolent purposes.

We are indebted to the Ecc,y Ecening, OF
Wilmington, Del, for Il prettily illustrated
Almanac for 1880. Besides the usual astron.
Omical calculations it contains variety OF
other useful information of a general charac.
ter as well as that especially adapted for Della
ware readers. Fiery Ecening is bright and
readable in all its departments, and consider
ing the difficulty of keeping up a first-class
live daily newspaper outside OF the great cities,
it is credit to its publisher and to the people
of Wilmington.

THE PEACH BoTToM RAILwAY.-Thc stock
holders of the Peach Bottom Narrow Gauge
Railway met at Delta, York Co., Pa, on the 18th
instant, and reelected the following officers:
Presidcnt-Charles r. McConkey; Directors
w. Latimer Small, Michael Schall, William
Wallace, A. G. Manifold, VIM. g. Ross, John
Humphrey, Samuel Dickey, John A. Alexander,
Robert B, Patterson, j. Penrose Amber, Charles
II. Stubbs, Isaac Bradley.
The report of c. R. McConkey, Esq, Pres't,
shows that there has been considerable falling
off in the gross earnings of the road, which is
accounted for in the reduction of rates of freight
made at the earnest solicitation of many stock
holders. A reduction of expenses was also
made, SO that the net earnings, amounting to
S15,629 12, are only little less than last year.
The bonded debt of the company is s4o0, 900, and
the floating debt s13,225. The latter is being
steadily reduced. Many Improvements have
been made in the road, and no accidents have
occurred during the year.

Temperature of the Ocean.

The variations in the warmth of the
sea water occur within a range of one
third less than that of the air, and the
mean temperature of the sea is found to
be warmer than that of the atmosphere
in eleven months out of twelve. The
summer warmth penetrates the sea very
gradually, and is more gradually given
off. January is the coolest month, but
the sea water is coolest in March; July
is the hottest month, but the sea water
attains its maximum warmth toward
the end of August. From that time the
sea becomes warmer than the air, and
cools so much more slowly than the
weather, that in November the average
warmth of the water is six degrees, and
in December seven degrees, higher than
that of the atmosphere. The balance is
reached at the end of March, and then
for the next five months the air is
warmer than the water. These figures,
which result from careful observations
made at Peterhead, Scotland, justify
the custom of extending sea-bathing
late into the autumn. Sea- bathing
should, in fact, begin late, and may
safely end late. 1t is more dangerous
in the warm days of early summer than
in the chilly days even of the late
autumn. The sea is as warm at the end
of October as it is in the second week OF
June; and the period between these two
dates is the healthy bathing season for
those who are strong enough to begin
early and end Late.
