Aftcr many days the Commercial opened its
mouth on the Wilmington salary increase, on
saturday. Il approaches the subject rather tim.
idly, as follows:
TEB RaPOsED INCREASE OF CITY SALARIES.
Tue aeoessity for increasing the salary of the
City ffedsufy, from $t9OO to $500, Is not easily
perceived. We beheEe IL Is already too hir6.
rather than too low. aud that $1,000 is quite sufi
cient to secure good Treasurer since the neces.
sary afehdance 10 the duties of tho Office does
not qog4py the lpcumbents whole time, but leaves
him enough leisure TO attend to other business -
Tue present tFoasnperuceupiei several other posi-
tions.
With regard to the proposed increase for the
Clerkand street tCommissloner, there may be better
rcasop Anbpth instances. The dutiss of the latter
officer arg especially laborious, occupying neces.
sarily the whole Of his time, and S15OO, year is
not any too much TO compensate q man lit for the
place. As TO the Clerks dHLies, it may be that
$1,000 is 300 ittlepay for them, though it has not
been long since the salary was raised from $500
to the present amount.
TheF81s continual effort, every where to raise
the payof the public officers although il is at the
s0mRf8a tFue that there is an enormous pres

UnWba or mere unthir than TO Rnderpay a good

peRdilure, aud needs to be carefully watched
One Of the most important duties of the City
Council Is that Of guarding against increased ex-
pehdHures, not nperatiyely required for the good
VI the municipal service.
Ia the case of the City Treasurer the fact that
$1,000 or $l20O Is SUFFICIENT to secure the services
OF competent person is clearly proved by the
number Of gentlemen now willing 10 accept the
place, al the latter figure. There is no lack oi
candidates, several OF whom would make excel

Mrs. Y. said they had barely time to make a
shOlt call at Mrs. James WalIack's historic cot

more than few minutes visit and she would
take the reporter there another time.
Mrs. Paddock has two pretty children, and
she Is herselfa lovely and domestic little WOm-
an. She has adorned this summer retreat with
many beautiful works Of art and objects of
UeTu. Among the curious and beautiful
things she brought from California, which
are to be seen at this cottage, are two immense
Japanese vases, that stands on each side of
the marble mantle, and reach almost to the
ceiling. There are many fine pictures, too,
brought from Italy. Mrs. Paddock and her
sister Mary Mrs Albaugh, are very much low
ed women, and they deserve all the love their
friends bestOW on them. Their early strug-
giles, particularly Maggie's, endeared them TO
all who knew them. Mr.. Chanfrau says he
first knew Maggie when she was playing lit
tie girl parts at the cid BOWeTY IhaAtre. She
was tEen aiding to support her widowed moth
er and several younger brothers and sisters.
A newspaper writer speaking of Charlotte
Cashman, who has an elegant summer resi-
dence at Newport, says: 1.-THE health and
vigOr OF her personal appearance, the
sprightlineSs and magic of her conversation,
the deep and cordial sweetness Of her sVAile,
her warm and unaffected hand clasp, unite, as
they have for so many years united, to win the
stranger and to retain their magnetism OVel
