The Smyrna Times of 21st inst, says THE
Democrats of this town held one of the most
animated delegate elections last Saturday ever
witnessed. II it had been a contest between the
Radicals and the White Mans Party it conld
hardly have been more warmly contested. The
nti-Saulsburyites- ''Young Democracy
caring to vote for "family men" always, and es-
pecially wishing to injure Mr.. Bewleys Senator
ial prospects and his aspirations for the
succession" were preparing to elect delegates
of their own selection. At the appointed time
they came to the meeting in force and succeeded
in electing the officers. But beyond this point
they failed. The Salisbury machinery, always
in complete working order, and always well ma
nipulated by the man who ..runs the machine

Aware Of their plans. he, at the head Of the
"bread and butter brigade" mustered his forces
and commenced on the offensive. The contest
waged hot. Each party ''waded in" in earnest
Over one hundred and fifty votes were polled--
every able-bodied Democrat being pressed into
the service-and when the result was announced
it was found that the Salisbury delegates had
received, on an average, at least two-thirds of
the ballots. The electoneering war was about
as bitter as between rival partisans, and many
of the uninitiated were hustled up to the polls in
such hurry that they didn't vote their 'senti-

the situation, and fully established his authority.

The Government Building.

IMPORTANT CHANGES To BE MADE.
A. B. Mullett, Supervising Architect Of the
Treasury Department. has, in answer to the rep
resentation of the Government officers in this
city. ordered several important changes to be
made in the Government Building, at sixth aud
King streets.
The basement under the Post Office, is to be
fitted mp with room for receiving the mails. and
there will be large door i'll it Oh the sixth street
side, in which the mail wagon will be drawn,
so that it may load and unload inside
the buildings instead of in the street as at pres
ent. An area will be made along Sixth street to
give the basement air and light, and the room
will be used by the letter-caiiiers A new stair
way will be built connecting it with the main
post office room above. The stair way will cut
off something from the present size of the Post
masters private room. There will also be new
room fitted up for the money-order business
The improvement will add greatly to the faciii-
ties of the Office for the prompt transaction of
business.
The other side of the building, occupied by
the Custom House officers aud the Collector of
Internal Revenue, will remain unchanged
In the second story there will also be important
changes. Eighteen feet will be taken off Of the
U. s. Court room and the space thus cut off
will be divided into vestibule and two roons
one for the use OF the Clerk of the Court and
the other for the Judge. The room now used
by the U. s. Marshall and for a jury room will
be occupied by the Marshal alone, and the half
story above will be fitted up into Jury rooms.
The rooms used by the Assessor Of Internal
Revenue will remain unchanged
The old and inefficient heaters which now
merely incunber space in the building, will be
torn out and low down CRATES and stoves. will be
put up in the various rooms. Water closets and
wash stands will also be located at proper points
about the building. The changes will be great
Improvement and add greatly to the convenience
of the government Offices and those transactng
business with them. The L. $. Court room will
be entirely rcmodiled.

TIE CITY TREASURY.

Mr., Pckels in the course OF u brief speech, in
Council, on Thursday evening, made some very
gratifying statements concerning the financial
condition of the city. He announced that the
whole of the floating debt, which has been hang
Ing over the heads of every Finance Committee,
for SO long, had been paid-wiped out, and
cleared OF the slate-and that there still re-
manned some twenty Thousand dollars in the
treasury. With the addition to this balance,of the
taxes still outstanding, the collection OF claims
due the city on paving and other accounts, and
the payment of the water tax, At New Year, there
will be no necessity to borrow single dollar,
during this fiscal year.
In making these statements, Mr.. Pickels re-
ferrea with just pride, to tho straightforward
course which the Republicans in the Council had
taken, in tho increase Of tho taxes. Nothing
could have been more unpopular, for tho time
being, yet it was step that needed to be taken,
Tor reasons Of sound financial policy, and 1t 1t
fully justified in the present excellent situation
OF affairs A few Democrats voted for the i'll
crease Of the tax, and only one (,iot Mr.. Bright,
voted against it, but tho responsibility for the
measure was thrown upon the Republican ma

Tie condition of our State affairs s, in almost
every respect, lamentable. There is not single
Department of which we can be proud.
WHO is responsible for this!
We answer, the men who have ruled Delaware,
absolutely, and despoticaly for the last six years,
and WHO for ten years, have been its controlling
political leaders.
In the language Of the resolution passed by
the Republican State Convention, in June, a
thorough and systematic State reform is de-
mandei. 1t is resolution, warranted by all the
facts
50. That the present condition of State
affairs, the direct result of acknowledgement by
"the faction which has held entire control for
. the past six years, makes imperatyely ncces-
'safy radical change of policy, in which Econ
'omy shall take tho place of Extravaganza, pru-
"dcnee of reeklessness, and liberal patriotism
" of local and personal asgrandisemont.
That is the key note to the peoples demands
in this campaign. WE MUST HAVE A
THOROUGH CHANGE OF POLICY. The
peoples credit has been sold, their bonds ilood-
cd upon the market, and the proceeds swallowed
up BY narrow Clique of managing politicians.
The whole proceeding was Enthusiastically recli-
essness, and ncompeteney, and we have the
load thus accumulated, resting upon the people 3
shoulders, to-day 1t must be lglitenel. The
taxes that are wrung from the State iaust be re-
leved. The debt must he reduced and not in
creased.
Only Economy can do this, Only the prudent
aud careful management OF a man like Thomas
B. Coursey can gather from tho slender resources
Of the State enough to meet the interest on the
immense debt which Democratic administration
have piled up. Our people are not all rich; they
have not tho capacious treasures of the Sauls'
hurry Ring they have not collected all the debt'
due them 80 closely as Mr.. Ponder {; and they
have not the ability to bear unlimited taxation
There must be a change. 1t must be not only
change Of mon, but there must be a neN
policy. The State demands REFORM

The coai aud Iron iaisrcsi-.

The Pottsyille Journal, of Saturday, has the
following in reference to the price of coal;
aThe demand for Stove Coal has increased,
and the price ranges about 20 cents per ton
higher than it did two weeks ago. As the de-
mand for Stove is greater than the supply, Egg
and Stove is sold in equal quantities together.
For the other sizes the demand is not so good,
Init the prices of last week arc maintained.
Chestnut is decidedly dull, and prices hardly
maintained. The increased demand for stove
and Egg was caused by the low coastwise freights
from Port Richmond to the East. and also an IN
creased demand on the line and for city con-
sumption, as but little coal has been laid in a at
Philadelphia for winter consumption so far. we
| hope the demand may continue, but the advance
| in freights at Port Richmond for the East may
| check the demand to some extent"

OLD TIMES.


There's beautiful song on the slumberous air
That drifts through the valley Of dreams;
1t comes from cline where the roses were,
And tuneful heart and bright brown hair
That waved in the morning beams.
Soft eyes Of azure and eyes Of brown,
And snow-whitc foreheads are there;
A glimmering cross, a gttering crown,
A thcrny bed and couch of down,
Lost hopes and leaflets Of prayer.
A breath of spring in the breezy woods,
Sweet walls the from quiyery pines
Blue violet eyes beneath green hoods,
A bubble OF brooklets, scent Of buds,
Bird warbers and clamberlng vines
A rosy wreath and dlmpled hand,
A ring and sighted VOW
Three golden links OF broken band,
A tiny track on the snow-whtc sand,
A tear and sinless brow.
There's tincturc Of grief In the beautiful song
That sobs on the slumber0us air,
And loveness felt in the festive throng,
Sinks down on the soul as 1t trembles along
From cline where the roses We're.
We heard 1t first at the dawn of day,
And it mingled with matin chimes;
But years have distanced the beautiful lay,
And its melody floweth from the far away,
And we call it now Old Times.

And the Cecil Democrat asserts that

cal conscience in the entire peninsula, has pro-

than hints that party success gu only be obtained
by his withdrawal.
both our neighbors permit their heat or their
imaginations to betray them. Truth bushes at
these little quotations. We did refer to the fact
that there was some dissatisfaction at the nom
nation Of Mr.. Torbert. But we did not ''design'
10 show demoralzed condition. or "wide-
spread disaffection," nor did We pronounce
against his claims.
On the contrary, no one desires more than We
tile absolute triumph of the Republicans of
Maryland. We have the warmest sympathy for
them, for our situations are similar. They are
under the heel of the Tom Swanns al we arc of
the saulsburys. They have suffered from the
legislation of exnltant rebels as we have from
the measures of the Ring. They have been
overwhelmed with the corruptions and
extrayagances Of their State government,
lust as we have been, in Delaware. They are
fighting gallantly, one or two errors excepted,
and we not only hope to see them gloriously
successful, but we pledge them our warnest
sympathy and kindest words to that result.
The intelligent labors of Postmaster-General
Creswell, and the restoration of good feeling
between himself and Judge Bond, have laid the
groundwork for the upward growth of great
Republican party in Maryland and it is the plain
duty of every one opposed to the present condi-
tion of the State to labor heartily and rcsolutely
for the Republican candidates.
In the First District Mr.. Torbert has been
regularly nominated by a majority of the Con-
yention met at the proper time and place to
choose a candidate. As between him and Col.
liambleton no Republican can have room to
hesitate, and we are glad to know, from our own
correspondents, as well as the Cecil Wigs
assurances, that few or none will. In 30 far as
our influence goes, we have never countenanccd
the threatened dsaffection, and our report of
the fact that ii existed, gave no ground to the
l-tempered charge of the Why. We excuse to
it, zeal the otherwise offensive character OF its
criticisms upon us, and have only to assure it
and every Republican and friend Of Reform, upon
the Eastern Shore of f'Maryand, that we desire,
and labor for, the election of Torbert and the
whole Republican ticket.
