CITY CHARTER.-Our correspondent
Village gives some very good reasons
why it is inexpedient in his belief. as it
is in ours also. for the people of Della
ware to apply to the Secretary of State
for city charter. The late census shows
that Delaware is city of the second
class; what more do we want? Viii a
piece of parchment and few more
officers and an increase in taxation
make it any more so? Does the expe-
nence of other towns prove that our
corporation government will be any
more efficient than it is at present? In
short, what advantage is to be gained
by the qualification of this ambition to
put on city airs?
The rate of local taxation in the 'in-
corporated village" of Delaware is Io
mills per dollar. Contrast with this the
rates for the same purposes in the fol-
lowing cities of the State: Akron, 81
mills; Canton SO; Chillicothe zo1; Cir
cleville. II 5; Fremont. 81 $40; Ian
caster "a s; Mansfield. 274 Newark 70;
Springfield 20; Wooster, z24; Xenia 2I
as. These figures do not show that
there is any magic IN the legal recogni-
ton of a town as a city to diminish or
alleviate the expenses of local govern
ment. There IS already good deal Of
complaint about our local taxes and yet
the number of towns in the State which
have been more cheaply governed than
Delaware is comparatively small. What
might we expect therefore should the
rate be increased to a city standard?

An Exhausted Husband.

The following bit of charming un-
sophistication, purporting to have been
written by young wife in New York to
her prim and spectacled maiden aunt in
Boston, will be read with curious inter-
est by the more enlightened reader =
My DEAR AUNT.-Although you told
me, when l invited you to my wedding,
that was two young to marry, and not
capable of choosing mate for life prop
erly, and with due considera ton, know
that you may now feel that was wiser
than yon thought. In selecting dear
Orlando have gained most affectionate
and attentive husband, and one who has
neither fault nor vice. Heavens
What must girl suffer who finds her
self united to dissipated person, neg
lectful of her, and disposed to seek the
society of unworthy persons, who drink,
smoke, and do all sorts of dreadful
things
Thank Heaven, Orlando is perfection
To-day is my eighteenth birthday,
and we have been married year. We
keep house now, and / can make pretty
good pie, only the under crust will be
damp. However, 1 think that must be in
the oven. Once put peppermint in the
pudding sauce instead of lemon flavor
ing; but then, Orlando was trying tokiss
me. right before the girl, who didn't
much like either of US going into the
kitchen at all.
| The flowers are coming up beautifully
in the back garden. We sowed great
many seed, but hardly expected so many
plants. Among the most numerous is
one variety with a very large leaf, that
scratches ones fingers, and don't smell
nice. / wonder what it is. Orlando
frightens me by talking about weeds;
but weeds always come up, don't they?
| Dear Orlandol l come back to him
again-so excellent, temperate, and
true. Tell all the girls to marry as soon
as they can, if they can find a husband
like mine.
| have but one triaf-business takes
him SO much away from me. A lawyer
must attend to business, you know and
sometimes they carry on the case until
two at night. Often and often he has
examined witnesses until half-past
twelve, and come home perfectly ex-
hausted. And the nasty things will
smoke, SO that his dear coat quite smells
of it. And as it makes him as i'll as it
does me, / have to air it. and sprinkle
the lining with cologne water before he
dares to put it on again.

business-I think he said it was a case
of life and death-would detain him late.

that | was little anxious, | confess,
and caught cold in my head peeping

Loving but Unloved.

Out from his palace home
He came to my cottage door;
Few were his look and words,
But they Linger for evermore.
The smile of his sad blue eyes
Was tender as smile could be;
Yet | was nothingto him.
Though he was the world TO mel
Fair was the bride hewo
Yet her heart was never his own:
Her beauty he had and held,
But his spirit was ever alone.
Iwould have been his slave.
With kiss for my lifelong fee;
But was nothing TO him,
While he was the world to mel
To-day in his stately home
On flower bier he lies,
With the dropping lids fast closed
Ger the beautiful sad blue eyes.
And among the mourners who mourn
/ may not mourner be;
For ! was nothing 10 him,
though he was all the world 70 mel
How will it be with our souls
When they meet in the better landG

Or, in some celestial form,
Must the sorrow repeated be,
And while be nothing to him,
While be dims heaven for me?

win. Some marry the second time tew
get even, and find it gambling game
the more they put down the less they
take up. Some marry tew be happy,
and not finding it, wonder where all
the happiness goes tew when it dies.
Sum marry they cant tell who, and live
they can't tell how. Almost every body
gifts married, and it il good joke. Sum
marry in haste, and then set down and
think it carefully over. Sum think it
carefully over fust, and then set down
and marry. Both ways are right II they
hit the mark. Some marry coquettes.

PoTATo FARINA.-A recent Report of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture says there is a great and increas-
ing demand and unlimited market for
farina or potato -four, which is simply
the dry, evaporated pulp of the ordinary
potato, the winter and more free from
black specks the better. 1t is used for
sizing and other manufacturing purpos-
es, and with the aid Of precipitation and
acid is converted into starch. In Eu-
rope it meets large and increasing de-
mand in its primitive state as potato
-four; and in Lancaster alone 10000
tons are annually sold, and as many
more would be taken if put into the
market. When calcined, it is used
