ers feel correspondingly happy. o.
course it has not come up to theil
expectations, but the business has
been SO much better than last week,
that they are not disposed to growl
and might remark, by the way
that is mighty cold day, in hot
summer, when a Seaside Hotel pro
prietor doesn't growl about some,
thing. He meditatively gazes upon
the blue ocean, and unless the shekels
are coming in by the handful, he
takes the blues himself, and wants to
kick somebody. But you can't blame
him, he must make hay while the sun
shines, and he must make it rapidly.
Wen you can't complain Of the prices
here,y can obtain the best Hotel
rooms, for a dollar or so day. You
can get good board at cottages for
from four to five dollar per week, and
as the season has just fairly set in, it
would not be out of the way to re

the beach, in front of the excursion

shaped car This looks like danger
Gus sport, but anything for novelty.
At the next place is what they call
':The Flying Horse" this place is
visited by great many both young
and old. | will not say much about
this place this week, but think it is
best for those ladies and gentlemen
to stay away On my return to my
cottage at a late hour, I noticed
young lady and gentleman that was
out on the beach at a late hour.
They had better stay away.

One of the most agreeable enter
tainments of the season, was that
given by Mr.. Charles Williams, at
Havelow Hall, on Friday evening,
July 18th. TO afford ample space
for bis many friends, the hospitable
host enlarged and extended the hall
and as the result proved he acted
wisely, for their was quite number
Of guests present, all enjoying them
selves after their own fashion, dance
ing however proved the most attract

fashionable tcrpsichorean measures,
including the ever popular

led the merry party through all the

presided over the music and acquitted
himself admirably. The desirable

between the dances, dispensed a
bountiful and seemingly inexhausta-
bic supply of refreshments Among
the guests present were the follow.
