nnmHe Mhipped Him.

A Young John Phoenix tells how
it was as follows: "Pll tell YOU
how it was. You see, Bill and me
went down to the wharf to fish; and
1 felt in my pocket and found nv
knife, and it was gone, and l said,
''Bill, you stole my knife;" and he
said 1 was another, and I said go
there yourself; and he said it was
no such thing; and ] said he was
liar, and 1 could whip him, if 1 was
biggern him; and he said he would
rock me to sleep, mother, and said
he was a bigger one; and he said /
never had the measles; and I said
for him to fork over that knife or
rde fix him for tombstone on
Laurel Hill; and he said my grand
mother was no gentleman, and L
said he dars'nt take it up, but he
did. YOU bet, then l got up again,
and said he was too much afraid to
do It again, and he tried to, but he
didn't; and grabbed him and threw
him down on the top ofme ike sew

and so did be, and my little dog

SPRING.


This description of Spring is from poem
entitled "Ballad of Babe Christsbel," by
Gerald Massey;
When Danae earth bares al her charms,
And gives the God her perfect flower,
Who, IN the sunshine's golden shower,
Leaps warm into her amorous arm!
When buds are bursting on the brier,
And all the kindled gresnry glows,
And life hath richestoverAows,
And morning fields are fringed with fire:
When young maids feel lsve stir i the blood,
And wantOn with the kissing leaves
And branches, and the quick sap hesves,
And dances to a ripsn'd food;
Til, blown to its hidden heart with sighs,
Loves red rose burns i the cheek 50 dear,
And, as sea-jewels upward peers,
Love-thoughts melt through their swimming
eyes;
When Beauty walks in bravest dress,
And, led with Apsil's mellow showers,
The earth laughs out with sweet May Aow-
ers,
That flush for very happiness.
And Spider Puck such wonder weaves
o. night, and hooks of greening gloom
Are rich with violets that bloom
In the cold dark of dewy leaves;
When rose-buds drink the fiery wine
Of dawn with crimson stains i the mouth,
All thirstily as yearning youth
From Loves hand drinks the draught divine:
Aad honey'd plots are drowsed with bees;
And larks rain music by the shower,
While singing, singing by the hour,
Song like a spirit sits i the treesi
When fainting hearts forget their fears,
And in the poorest life's salt cup
Some rare wine runs, and Hope builds up
Her rainbow over Memory's tears
1t fell upon merry May morn,
I the perfect prime of that sweet time
When daisies whiten, woodbines climb
The dear Babe Christabel was born.

lmpudrntly called itself the Union pUtty Of
the country; it said the negro shall never bear
arms against our 'erring sisters, and yet were
the very first to run with eager haste to secure
the service Of the same colored men to fill
their places IN the army under the draft; to be
all abotionist with them was the sum of all
villanies-nOw Mr.. Bayard, in his town hall
Speech congratulates the party that slavery is
no more; Gr0sS hUttORS to n simon pure Demo
crat, was the abOmination of all denominations,
and yet Gen. Mcclellan, brass buttons and
spurs, were swallowed hy them as right clever
dose, to say nothing Of Gen +. p. Blair, as a
dessert, black republican who ont Hcroded
even Mr.. Lincoln himself; and last, though
not least, if reports can be trusted, which
we have most excellent reasons for crediting,
the pure, uncontaminated Dover Ring, who
affects to make us believe they are so far sepa-
rated from the African scent" did actually
crawl upon their hands and knees in the lanes
and alleys, where the scent was strongest, in
vain attempts to tamper with and secure the
negro vote Of the State of Delaware, failing
in which, that monster of iniquity and fraud,
the "White Mans Party" conceived in a
drunken brain, was attempted to be foisted
upon the party of this State. And now only
during the last two weeks, we have the sever
est Democratic Inequality exhibited that the
followers Of the family ring have ever for q
moment attempted-a 10hite man, a life Ions
Democrat, condescending Lclow the negro, anC
backing his face, in cOlors deep as his heart
in order to be admitted to the colored Unior
Leagues of KentOn and Appoquinimink Hun
dreds. The tchie man consented to become
black in order that he might become greater
traitor After all, Mr.. Pollard is but saying
in honeye1 words what the leaders of the Con
servOtive fraud would now say, if they coull
make votes by it, and what they will undoubt
edly say in two years to come, when, as WillarC
says they will "Geot as tcith the negro vote"

The FOURTH There was no celebration of
the Fourth in any town'n the State, in any
thing like the old fashioned way In Middle
town business was not suspended, and the only
thing to mark the day was the fire crackers
and free fight among some of the whites and
blacks Dover went to the beach and hroused
around otherwise, while the boys fired their
crackers. Milford went on an excursion to
Lewes, but some Of the young chaps, for lit
tie fun, masked themselves in lllSefaccs and
fancy dresses and paradeJ round. Harrington
also went to Lewes. Lincoln celebrated the
day by holding a farmers picnic Seaford went

GREAT FOURTH OF July CELEBRATION AT
HURLoCK STATION. .-H. EIitor We had
a grand Fourth of July celebration ut Hur-
lock Station, on the d. 4 d. Railroad, about
eighteen miles from Scatord. 1t was held
under the auspices of the Choptank and Nan
ticoke Sunday School Association. of which
W. b. Gregg, formerly of your town, is Presi-
dent. The Sabbath Schools poured in from
fredericksburg, Bethel, Lnkwood Seaford,
Washington, &c, &c, until about twenty
schools were represented on the ground, with
banners unfurled and flags flying, and drums
heating in every direction. a very long train
Ot cars, filled with men, women, and children,
were run to the woods from SeafOrd, the north
western end of the road, and from Cambridge
the terminus or southeastern end, taking in
passengers from all intermediate stations. The
woods was packed full of carriages, as Won
have often seen at Camden camp, and other
similar meetings.
The Association and audience was called TO
order by the President about lOI o clock. and
after singing by the schools, God Bless Our
Native Land, led by Miss Addie Hazard, of
SSeatord, at the organ, prayer was offered by
Rev. n. NJ. Brown, Of Dorchester Circuit.
The Declaration Of Independence was read in
clear ana Impressive manner by MIR. Wilson,
OF fredericksburg. The schools then sung a
Union Song" Boys and Girls are all for
Union" after which Rev j. NJ. McCartcr de-
livered an eloquent, patriotic Grafton, which
was creditable to both head and heart, produ-
eng fine effect, and well received by the
audience After music, by the Seaford Band,
the audience retired for dinner. At about .
clock the audience assembled again, and the
services commenced by music by the band, and
singing by the schools, Mrs DR.. Noble, organ.
lst, and prayer by Rev. f. q. Irwin, Of FEEDER
alsburg. Rev. w. b. Gregg addressed the
audience, on the Sabbath School interests,
making his remarks general, to parents, officers,
teachers and scholars. After the schools had
dlscOursed more vocal, and the band instru-
mental music, the audience was dismissed with
the BenedictiOn, by Rev. Mr.. Hammersy, of
Denton. 1t is generally believed that there
wei, Mere three or four thousand people present.
The fires OF &c seemed to burn in the hearts
OF the people, and great deal of enthusiasm
was manifested on the occasion.
There is a great excitement on the question
OF moving the Ennell's Spring Camp Meeting

BIG TALK ABOUT WAR IN EUROPE. ALL
the daily papers are filed with rumors of
war between France and Prussia over the
Spanish Throne question. The trouble seems
to be this: Spain wants King Queen Isa-
bella having forpaly abdcated, the Spanish
people are looking sround for ruler, and the
rest of Europe is meddling in the little affair.
half-dOzen different Princes, Dukes, and
other titled dignitaries have been named tor
the throne, but they don't suit Spain, or some
of the powers that are meddling in the affair.
Finally the throne was offered to Prince Leo.
pOld, of IlOhenzollern, Prussian, when up
hles France in Il passion that seems amusing
at this distance, but is likely to prove serious
world. 1t may or it may not. 1t may be
ended by the time our paper is out, or the con-
fict of arms may have commenced. France,
it seems, wants Prince Asturias, descendent
of the dethroned Queen, to wear the Spanish
crown, and when Louis Napoleon heard that
Leopold, the Prussian, was named, he at once
sent dispatches to Bismarck, demanding Of
Prussia that she shall withdraw the candidacy,
and that she shall express disapproval of it.
Leopold was at perfect liberty to accept or de-
cline throne at will. lie has accepted, and
1t is highly improbable that Bismarck will back
down from position where he is technically
tnassailable, before such categorical and pre-
emptory demand.
