Atlantic II OTX. July 26. There hvs been a heavy tidal wave of paietj lur tue last two weeks, ine beaux fur all tbese belles came when the need for them was greatest. The sqddIv met the demand, it is a law in society as well as in nature to abhor a vacuum, aud there is no vacuum more abhorrent than a pleasure resort, without pleas ure maKers, tnose wno are ingenious in planning amusements aud auccedsful in executing their plans. It is a conun drum that I have never been able to answer satisfactorily. What is really the object of the average young man in society to please himself or tho ladies to whom, in the parlance of the day, he pays attention ? The answer however is immaterial, as giving pleasure to others brings a rtfl-x reward and the . result is the same, both parties are de lighted. -; ' At the Atlantic the young folks find the days too short for their fun and frolic and borrow from the nights which have been lovelier than the days. Every evening' dancing is in order and once or twice a week they have a full dress german, when all the lovely girls .put on their lovely toilets and the dress coats are exhibited.- One such took place Tuesday nigbt led by Mr Tyson, a recent graduate of West Point, him- . self a liviug and present exemplifica tion of the potent charm a young officer possesses. . Mr Tyson's . figures were new and original aud could only be ex ecuted by a large number in a large room, they were just a trifle a' la mill taire, but that did not make them U-e less enj iyed by those who took part or by tnoae who sat in tbe balconies and could look down on tbe-brilliant scene and take iff the whole. Oh, that is mistake, fond and careful mother, you can see that your charming daughter's dress is perfect, that her partner is eligible.ber step measured and graceful, her laugh musically modulated, but you cannot quench the light in her eye that fl isbes intelligence tor "yes that speak again;" cannot control the ebb and ll wof that crimson current that be- trays often more than the difference be tween a maiden's blush and the" pur chasable "bloom of youth," or measure, .by any thermometer the warmth f the ; pressure that dainty little sea-shell of . a band has judt received. . There are tsome things you cannot know, oh I pro-' dent cbaprerone, and many more you cannot. Therefore train up your daugh ters while they are young never to put even their "light fantastic toe" on the line of imprudence or venture too near the treacherous verge - of impropriety, and when they are belles they will never reserve their sweetest smiles for the darkest corners their most winning ways for "the wee sma hours ayant the t waL" Now don't be shocked you high land puritan, if I ask you a conundrum that I was asked last night while eut sailing. Why is a fast girl like a yacht? Give it up? So will I, but one of them .told me, "Because she often reposes on the breast of a "heavg swell." The moonhaa made-these midsummer ' nights f airer, lovelier . than a . poet's dream and J ally to ea jay this ravishing beauty of air, sky and water there have been a - great many sailing parties at night. -It is quite thing for young gentlemen when he wishes particularly to compliment a lady to give her a sail ing party, the programme is as follows: He charters a boat (the Louise More ftead. Price captain, has been the prime favorite this seasenX Issues , bis invita tions, some - of them have numbered twenty-five or thirty couples not in cluding the chaperones. About 0 or 10 o'clock they start out,, the start not the least Interesting part of the whole. Our hosts tbe first evening were Mr Will Overman and Mr Douglas Brown, and the party was given to Miss Florence Tucker and Miss Mimms. 'There have been several patties given each evening during the moonlight. One that was particularly enjoyable by Mrs Lee for married people. A stylish entertain ment by Gen Ransom at Fort Macon, where the guests were treated not only to "pink champagne" but to an elegant repast served on one of the galleries of the old hospital. There was one of tbese delightful parties given by Messrs Springs & Baney, memorable for the many puns suggested by tbe names of the hosts, such as "we drink to Baney-Springs "Baney days and slights are charming" "Spring's de lights are now returning," &c ; but with .-such light wit the sparkle passes with .the occasion ; it is as attractive and as (unsubstantial as the pbosphoresent gold of the water as it slips through tbe lingers at night. The reporter cannof present it by daylight. " . With special pleasure all,:wJio'werBf bt Mr. Dockery's party on Monday night remember the glorious sail over the "bounding billows? A stiff' breeze' filled the sails, rocked the boat and the dashing, flashing spray, raided the spirits to the highest point f-..exuiliraUoa be-; fore the sparkle of champagne was added. These -combined elemsrits , of, enjoyment, enhanced by the genial cor-diality-of therhostr made it a bnghr night in our seaside experiences, f JDrs. Lilly and, Mz.iBobinsan from Fayette ville, gave allightfnl party on Wednesday night J just as different: as possible lrom the breezy, buoyant sail, mentioned above. There was hardly wind enough to fill the canvas, the mo tion was so softs w seemed "a painted, hip upotra painted ocean." - The wan ing moon was late and pale the water lazily lapped the sides of the boat and vhone with subdued brilliancy with tbe gloss of satin and glimmer of pearls" instead of diamond dazzled The air was as sweet as the breath of a baby everybody grew poetical and senti mental conversation - like the wind grew fitful and low-rfell into murmur ing duets.

Is is impossible yet to give tne number or dead at Uasa micciola. k In I the latest accounts the number is estimated at three thousand. The Hotel Piccola SentinelU sank in the earth and buried many of its in mates. Some of the inhabitants of the town escaped to the sea at the first shock and made their way to Naples with news of the calamity. i - At Lacco there are many dead and wounded. At Forio the churches were ruined, but no one was killed. At Ser rara fifteen were killed. All the steam ers plying between Ischia and the main land were immediately chartered by the Government to bring the wounded from the Island. 1 - lioMK.

Two more of the striking operators have returned to work. The men at St. John who went out have all returned. Tbe strikers at Halifax applied to be re instated, but found their places filled. At the headQuarters of the strikers to day it was denied that the wires had been cut by tbe striking linemen. If tbe wires had been cut by them tbe Brotherhood would order them repaired free of charge to the company. It was said this was simply an excuse of the company for delaying messages. It was denied that any man had returned to work, and it Was said that encouraging reports were coming in from all Darts of the country.

Mr Calvin S-Briee, one of the members of the syndicate, is tbe first to speak Out in regard to tbe transaction, and be expressed himself to a reporter of the Baltimore Sun as fol lows : Ye, rthe "report UTrne that a syndicate In'wMch I am interested has bought control of the Richmond and Danville road., . Webave the strongest combination that has ever been formed to taks hold of Southern railroads. We We have secured about 2SJXO of the BO, 000 shares of stock issued - by the Rich mond and Danville company. Oar syn dicate controls, besides our - new pur chase, the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railway and the Chesapeake and York River line of steamers that ply between West Point, on the Chesa peake, and Baltimore., acd hasi close trifle arrangements 'with the Clyde steamers, which ran between .-New York and Phil tdelphia to all Southern peints." - Our purpose I s to confine all our railroad and steamship lines nnder one management, and equip and ope rate the system in the best possible manner. . .We have made a careful In spection of our new purchase, and feel well satisfied with its condition. By the consolidation . referred to we will have the greatest railroad system in tbe South. It gives us over 4.000 miles of road through the most beautiful and productive part 1 the country, the most direct outlet from all Southern Mississippi river points to the Atlantic seaboard, and all cities east.' The pur chase of the Richmond - and Danville stock was consummated Friday.1 Of course It Is too early yet to' give more than general Information regard In g"our plana for the' future, but we feel sore that we have a most valuable property one that, already (doe a business of nearly ioiOOOjOOO yearly, and certain to earrf912.000jOOO to 15 jOOOjOOO yearly In the near future." Tbe effect of the com bi nation will be to add 5OO000 to the net earnings of lbs) EastTennessee and Georgia Railroad company this year. and probably more, than double that to the Richmond and system. a ;' There is no end of, speculation as what effect cm tbe future management of tbe road this sale will have, and a good many are Inclined to believe tbat tbe present officers of tbe road will con tinue to hold their ptaees, and' tbat Mr Henry . Fink general manager of tbe ast Tennesaeev Virginia and Georgia, will be placed at tbe bead of tbe new eoasol idaled system. Tbe change It Is agreed will cause no regrets to North Carolina. It is argued, that the East Tenhesuee road, tbe Lynchburg News says, wtil annul its traffie arrangement with the Norfolk and Western, and un lets the syndicate can get possession of he latter road, it. will divert trafio at Mortistown over ; the Western North Carolina road via Aaberille ' and tbe Richmond and Danville to West Point, tbe water outlet of tbe Richmond and DanVlUe system. .
