TIT FOR TAT.-The wife of James
Springer brought suit against Frank
White. not long since. claiming 5000
damages, under the provisions Of the
law of April last. on account of injuries
suffered by her from the sale Of intoxi-
eating liquor to her husband. On Sat
urday the case was tried before jury
in Justice Latimer's court and a verdict
rendered in favor of the plaintiff for the
full amount claimed.
Thereupon Frank White, the defen-
dant, caused the fact to be made known
to the proper authorities that James
Springer and John Wilson had sold
whisky during the County Fair in Oc-
tober last, without having paid to Uncle
Samuel the small item of revenue tax
which al retailers Of calamity water are
expected to contribute to the national
exchequer. Intelligence of this move
ment soon got abroad and fell like a
clap of thunder upon the head of James,
surnamed Springer, and his confeder-
Z
suspicion of a United States Marshals
warrant crept over them like a cold chill,
and the consequence was that Brother
Jonathan became richer by some fifteen
dollars in very short space of time.
All of which proves that no law is so
easily enforced as one which makes it
the interest of offenders to bring each
other to justice.

By THESE Presents. friends.
good friends. we want no presents. Not
because we don't appreciate kindness,
but because the whole business of pres
ent making and present receiving by
editors, as such, is humiliating and de-
moralizing. It destroys the indepen-
dence of journalism. and lowers the
profession TO a condition of mendican-
cy. No one thinks Of making gifts to
a hardware merchant, a shoemaker or
grocer. yet these are just as much en-
titled to such favors as editors and prin-
ters A gift which is made as token
of esteem simply and purely is a com
pliment; a gift for which qlttd pro qsto-
is expected implies no esteem and con-
fers no pleasure. If meant as busi-
ness transaction the exchange should
take place in business way and if
meant and accepted as charity let that
also be understood Business is bust
ness and charity is charity.
DELAWARE CHAIR COMPANY Stead
lily manufacturing establishments loom
up among US. We were called on few
days since to look through the large
frame building which has been erected
near the wire bridge and were informed
that Messrs. T. E. Powell, c. W. Clip
pinger and r. G. Lybrand had put up
the building and will in about ten days
commence therein the manufacture of
Split Bottom Chairs. They intend car
rying on this business quite extensively.
and have imployed ]. C. Strain as
superintendent, a gentleman having
considerable experience in the chair
line.
The manner in which their power is
transmitted to the building is ingenious
as we'll as economical. An endless
steel wire rope, 48o feet long, extends
from the engine of the Planning Mill
some twenty-five feet above ground, and
will produce sufficient power to run all
the machinery in the chair factory. We
will have more to say hereafter concern
ing this growing and enter prising COM
pany. Success to them.
