count of a rolonged contest that was going on

short distance from that city. The martins.
which are described as carpet-baggers from
South Carolina, attempted to Onst the doves
from the doyecote where they had been born,
and which they knew as their homes In the
morning, as fast az the doves left their box
they were beset by the martins and driven OF,
the latter obtaining possession. The doves
would be kept out all day, but at night would
return in force and manage to regain possession
OF their homes, and remain there during the
night, to be dispossessed again in the morning
This was kept up regularly during the three
DAYS the informant remained at that point, and
il is not known as yet whether the carpet-bag
gers or tho natives are finally victorious.

The Census RepOrts-Number of Persons Con

The Census RepOrts-Number of Persons Con-
vitted In Delaware.
The Advertiser questions the accuracy Of
the returns made from this State, in the Cen
sus, Of the number Of persons convicted of
crlne and sets out to refute the official figures,
by figures procured from the Prothonotaries Of
the several counties. The Advertiser, however,
makes serious blunder at the outset, by col
lecting it's statistics for the year, 1870 which
was not the Census year. The statistics were
gathered "for the year ending June l. 1870 "and
the returns which the Advertiser gives us, for
the last peven months Of that year are not what
it wants, at all.
For the defence and justification OF U. s. Mar
shall Dunn. it is enough to say that he procured
from the Sheriff OF each county, the returns he
m lde in regard to the number convicted within
a year, and the III mber remaining in prison, when
the Census was taken. These figures were fur
nished him by Sheriff Richardson OF New Castle
Co, Wilds of Kent, and Layton, OF Sussex. An
examination of their letters, among the records
of the Marshal's office, shows that the general
return was made up from their several statistics
1t should further be added that Marshal Dunn u
work was especially commanded by General
Walker, the Commissioner OF the Census.
