Of Many" who, no doubt, appreciates the
female beauty above any other thing in the
village, as he speaks Of it first. AS he says it
is situated on the Delaware river, it is oppos-
lite Reedy Island about of a mile from the
bay, miles from Delaware City and the same
from McDonough, = from st. Georges and the
same from Odessa, very prsttily situated
yillage-containing about 800 inhabitants, gem
orally very industrious and old residents
Fishing in the Spring is the principal employ
ment; there are two shoemakers with constant
work, few carpenters, 3 stores, blacksmith
shop, confectioners, droyers, &c. There
are Methodist church, Presbyterian finish
ed all to painting, it has commenced, and will
be dedicated in about three weeks. 1t has u
very good bell,
Port Penn is a very old settlement. There
are very old houses few bat that have been re-
moved, 80 that the to Rn looks rather modern.
There is one house in particular, that formerly
belonged to Count Pulaski, whom all your
readers know to have been foreigner, who
helped our foretathers in the noble cause of
freedom; the house is now occupied by very
old citizen, Mr.. VIM. Oleayer. He is about 81
years of age.
The farmers are generally in very ample
circumstances, and are enterprlsng; the land
IL under high state of cultivation, some are
done powing, but most of them are not near
done, suppose they will be done planting corn
by the tenth of May.
The Spring has been very backward, bad on
Farmers and Fishermen the last two days
though have been very pleasant; Monday and
Tuesday last was very stormy, consequently
there was q very high tide on Wednesday
night raising three feet above the wharf or 5
feet above high water mark. Reedy Island
was entirely enveloped in water showing rather
a desolate appearance. Yours, A BOY.

made a motion to appoint committee to in

Is the remarkable declaration that s'peaceful

THE PoIsoNINo AT WAsuINoToy.-It is now
believed that not less than seven hundred per-
sons have been seriously and danger
ously affected by the National Hotel poison
at Washington, and some twenty or thirty
deaths have occurred in consequences. There
are still several persons very seriously ill,
whose recovery is doubtful. Among others the
Hon. Robert j. Walker is not yet entirely re-
covered from his severe attack. Senator Hale,
Of New Hampshire, has become a thin, lean
man, under its ravages. 1t is now the opinion
of many persons that there was deliberate
purpose to poison Mr.. Buchanan, and that the
diabolical scoundrel hazarded the lives of
thousands in the attempt

HYDRorHoBIA.- The Philadelphia American
says A child seven years old, residing in this
City, died on Wednesday last in the fearful
agonies of hydrophibia. The bite was intiict-
ed some two months since, and the insduous
poison had remained latent until within few
days. The dog was shot Immediately after
the occurrence. The wound, which was
upon the back of the hand, scarcely pune
tured the skin, and not the slightest apprehen-
sions were entertained Of any unfortunate re-
suit. The case should prove warning to the
numerous thoughtess persons who keep about
them one or more valueesS ours, which at any
time are liable to become rabid, and to extend
the calamity to an indefinite extent.

the voters Of Scott County" which for

Harvey Leonard. 1t says:

ded TO deceive and had the effect Of
increasing Mr.. Lsonard's majority. The

which Black Republicans wished to
thrust down our throats, for the benefit
Of terminals and negroes. We cannot
tell certainly that such is the result
for We have not full County returns,
but the vote in the most populous river
cit,es certainly look favorable, and the
assurance we had before election, o,
prevailing public sentiment, lead us to
mo other conclusion. This will be q
