The asssas Of tho Democratic party in Delaware

The defsaa Of the Democratic party in Delaware

Big SUNDAY Dinners.

A Sunday dinner is made the most
sumptuous meal Of the week in great
many households, and the guests retire
from the table more like gorged anaeon
das than intellectual human beings, with
the result that during the whole after
noon there is such an amount of mental
physical, and religious sleepiness. if not
actual stupidity, that no duties whatev-
er are performed with alacrity, efficiency,
and acceptableness. The Sunday din
ner, made of cup of hot tea, some
bread and butter. with slice of cold
meat, and absolutely nothing else, would
be wiser and better for all; it would give
the servants more leisure; the appetite
would be as completely satisfied half an
hour afterward, while body, brain and
heart would be in a fitting condition to
perform the duties of the Sabbath with
pleasure to ourselves. with greater eff
cheney to others, and doubtless with
larger acceptance to Him toward whom
all our service is Halls Jouraa

The points which are made against the

American Prisoners in Prussia


1t is difficult to realize that in the fair
free, father land, under the rule of the
great aud generous Emperor, and the
far seeing diplomat, Bismarck, Ameri
can citizens of PrusSian birth are to day
detained IN prison and subjected to heavy
fues as deserters.
1t is stated that Nathan Jacobs, a na
tive of Pomerania. Prussia, came TO this
country in April, 1856, and took out his
"intention" papers in May Of the same
year. 10 July, 1870. he took out his
naturalization papers before Judge Bar
bour, in the Superior Court q New 1urk
City. In April of last year, intending
to return home for a visit. he sent bis
papers to Washington, with a request for
a passport. This was returned rs request
ed and thus provided he went back TO
his native village, near Stettin. Here
he was seized as a deserter from The
Prussian army, court martialed. con
demned, to six months Imprisonment In
the fortress of Stettin. TO pay fine OF
$500, and TO serve another year in the
army 1t was shown that Jacobs mas an
American citizen, and that he had pass
port in the regular manner; but the au-
thorities refused to pay any attention to
this, alleging that he was deserter, and
as such came under the exceptions Of the
treaty between this country and Prussia
On receiving the news of jacobs ar

Immediately wrote TO Secretary Fish.
stating the circumstances, and asking il
anything could be done Mr.. Fish at
once telegraphed TO Mr.. Bancroft at
Berlin, who represented the case TO the
war authorities The answer returned
was a curt assertion that Jacobs was
deserter, and must be punished at once
Mr.. Bancroft wrote TO this effect to Mr.
Fish, who states that be can do nothing
