DELAWARE.

The wings appear to be successful in this
State, in electing the three Clay Electors, Go
vernon, member of Congress, and majority Of
the Legislature, thus securing U. S. Senator
in place of MIR. Bayard, and thereby giving the
wings majority in that body on the 4th of
March next, We have the vote only of New
castle county, where the wing majority is 1852,
being gain over 1910, of &c votes, when Har-
rison carried the State by majority of 1888,
of 1912, when the wings carried the State by

a crying one-and a remedy is great beside
ratum, as preventive against foul air, soiled
furniture, and the train of moral as well as
physical ills, that never failed to be induced by
a smoky house.
Messrs. Editors, the publication of the facts
above stated, in my opinion, will be of more
benefit than score of modern love stories and
adventures, and if it tends to relieve one suffer-
er, when it may thousands, shall be rewarded
for my share of the trouble in giving publicity
to it, and you will deserve and receive the
thanks of those who heed the suggestion, as
we'll as those of the writer, who is one of your
daily readers, and is as thoroughly an Ameri-
can Republican as he is ANTI-FUMUs.
N. B.-Since writing the aforegoing, learn
that Espy's Ventiator has been found efiectual
in ventilating and removing the foul air from
vaults, banks, school-rooms, churches, court
rooms, &c., and that it is used on the ships of
our African Squadron, and most of the ships of
our navy to purify their holds Of foul air, so
dangerous to health in warm ATTITUDES.

A BAD BARGAIN.

The following occurred in one of the towns
of Massachusetts not far from Rhode Island
1t is a compound of rum and benevolence, APP
petite and cunning high and low depravity
such as seldom comes to light.

when have seen such a smile of Joy at so
small gilt.''
"Given shirt! should like to know who
there is SO poor as to be without shirt. Old
Tom Jones is the poorest creature know of,
and don't believe but he has got shirt, as
poor drunkard as he is"
"Tom Jones!-there, don't believe but it
was Jones; have heard you describe him, and
it was him know. He looked cunning, and
that smile of his seemed TO be half Joy, half
fun, and if was Irish should say the other
half savage"
"Very likely it was Jones, for he has been
in the store to day."

COMMUNICATED.
Entract from "a Plea for The Hest," by Lyman

Beecher, ID. d., 1885.
In the remarks which follow, the writer dis
claims any reference to educated, vrtnous and
industrious cmigrants. To the high-minded
and valuable citizens among this class, he ac-
cords just praise
"The danger from uneducated mind is aug
menting daily by the rapid influx of foreign
emigrants, the greater part unacqualnted with
our institutions, unaccustomed to selfgovern-
ment, inaccessible to education, and easily &C
cessible to prepossession, and inveterate credu-
lily, and intrigue, and easily embodied and
welded by sinister design. In the beginning,
this eruption of revolutionary Europe was not
anticipated, and we opened oui doors wide to
the influx and naturalization of foreigners.-
But 1t is becoming terrific foundations; it has
increased upon our native population from five
to thrty-seven per cent, and is every year ad-
vancing.
at seeks, of course, to settle down upon the
unoccupied territory of the West, and may, at
no distant day, equal and even outnumber the
native population. What is to be done to edu-
cate the millions which in twenty years Eu-
rope will pour in upon us?' "Since
the Eruption of the northern barbarans, the
world has never witnessed such a rush of dark
minded population from one country to an
other, as is now leaving Europe and dashng
upon our shores. 1t is not the northern hive,
but the ,ohote hive which is swarming out upon
our cities and unoccupied territory, as the eff
feet of overstocked population, of civil oppres-
sion, of crime and poverty, and political and
ecclesiastical design. Clouds, like the loeusts
Of Egypt, are rising from the hills and plains
of Europe, and on the wings of every wind are
coming over to settle down upon our fair fields;
while millions, moved by the noise of their
| rising, and cheered by the news of their safe
arrival and green pastures, are preparing for
flight in an endless succession

A U. S. SENATOR CHALLENGED. On the day
of the Presidential election at st. Louis, says
the Republican, when Col. Benton offered his
vote at the Fourth ward poll, it was challenged
by Wing, who thought that a U. S. Senator
was no more than any other man in an cleo
ton. The exception was upon the ground
that the Senator was not citizen of the State
he, however, was sworn, and upon his state
ment that he considered st. Louis as his place
of residence, he was permitted to vote. tits
something singular to see the representative Of
a State compelled to swear whether he is res
deut of the State or not.

A HANDSOME Act. Mr.. O'Sullivan, the edi-
tor of the N. Y. Morning News, did hand
some and gentlemany act a few days ago that
merits general appreciation. He had betted
$50 against beautiful saddle horse, upon
some particular result, and won his wager. The
horse was accordingly delivered to the winner
But he, having learned that it was favorite
with the wife of the loser, rode it to the house
of the lady, and there assured her, that he
could not deprive her of her pet, and begged
her acceptance Of the animal. The offer thus
gracefully made, was gracieusly accepted

.Messrs Editors: BY an advertisement in your
journal of yesterday, see that Prof Whitney
intends delivering lecture on popular oratory,
in Calvert Hail. tomorrow evening-and, hav-
ing had the pleasure of hearing him, desire
to bear testimony to the capacity of Mr.. w. to
fulfil the task he has undertaken. He possesses
voice singularly melodious and ofastonishing
power and fiexibilty, and brings to the aid Of
his profession both genius and education. The
pieces he selects are always delivered with Just
discrimination, and with the most thrilling and
happy effect. His representations of Clay,
McDufiie, and Randolph, are almost without
fault, and are always most rapturously ap.
plauded.
In other cities his lectures have boon emf
nently successful--and / hope that the ladies
Of Baltimore, whose charms are so many and
powerful, will use their influence i'll behalf OF
the youthful lecturer, and thereby insure as
brilliant and as numerout an audience as have
graced his efforts elsewhere. w. b.
