STATEMENT OF FACTS, by OUR CORRESPONDENT
Special Correspondence Of the Commercial
GEORGETOWN, DEL, March 25.
Yesterday morning,a man known by the name
Of Joe Burton" committed an outrageous
assault upon young white girl, named Lank
near Rehoboth station, on the Junction q Break
water Railroad. " Joe was raised by ESQ.
Burton OF this place, and had left here, some
two weeks ago, to visit his mother who lives
near Rehoboth. Intending to return to George
town, he went to the Station, at the former
place, but had not money enough to buy ticket
and while in the store, there, Miss Lank came to
the store, on business While she remained Joe
left, and secreted himself in the thicket, in the
way she had to return, about one-fourth Of a
mile from the store, and awaited her RETURN
when he committed the brutal act.
The struggle of resistance made by the young
lady terrible, as the marks ON the road in the
mud would indicate, and her clothing was litter
ally torn into shreds. After she escaped from
III n she reached home, little distance of, when
the alarm was given and the neighborhood ar
oused. The woods in which the act was commit
ted was surrounded and searched and the cul.
prit taken and brought to Georgetown, last eve
ming, by Mr. John Marshall, of Lewes, who was
the prominent one in his arrest. He was well
secured in fetters in the same cell from which
the notorious Goldsborough escaped. We
judge from the kind of irons with
which he is bound down there is but lit
tie chance OF his escape. As the Court will meet
in three weeks. he will receive his doom. He
manifests perfect indifference. When surroun-
ded in the woods, he was gathering hickory nuts
and inquired who they were looking after and
feigned surprise that 1t was him. He said that
he had seen the girl in the store but that was all
he knew about her. He is large, good looking
young colored man, but we understand has been
considered rather"a hard case"
Tue young lady s the daughter Of John Lank,
who was former keeper of the Light House,
and is very respectable and handsome young
girl, OF 15 or 10 years of age She Is inia criti-
cal condition, and her fright and grief are such
that there are fears OF her recovery.
The community are greatly incen sed, and it
was with difficulty that those having the pcoun-
drel in charge could prevent his being lynched.

Delaware College.

TO 1le Editor OF nte Commercial.
NEWARK. DEL, March as.
A short time since q communication from
Newark, appeared in your paper, complaining
that some of the Trustees of Delaware College
(and one, in particular who is Trustee both Of
College and Academy did not patronize it by
sending their sons to it. believe / am the only
one who occupies those two positions, and |
send my son to Princeton College. Therefore,
l must be the Trustee referred to, and l deem
1t proper to state my position lest it might be
construed to be disparaging to this Institution
A year or more before this College was resus-
ctated, / had sent my son to a preparatory
school purely classical desiring to give him
thorough classical education. When Delaware
College was reorganized as an Agricultural Col
lege, did not think it prudent to interrupt
him until he should have finished his course in
that institution.
Last commencement when he was prepared to
enter a regular Classical College 1 hesitated
whore to send him for though did not think
this College, 80 young and 80 recently revived,
had the advantages and appliances OF older snd
better endowed institutions, felt under some
obligations to patronize home institutions un-
til the President of Delaware College, at a very
slim meeting Of the Board of Trustees, and by
only one majority, passed resolution admitting
females-a measure heartily disapproved uf.
Not that am opposed to the thorough educa-
tion Of ladies' but l think young ladies and
young gentlemen should be educated in sepa-
rate Colleges.
Again, think it better when sons are old
enough, and can be trusted from under parental
watch and care, to be educated from home; re-
moved from associations calculated to divert
their minds from their studies.
These may be deemed sufficient reasons for
sending my son elsewhere to be educated. But |
why remain in the Trusteeshp hear some |
one ask. reply the Delaware Agricultural Col |
lege, as are all others endowed by the General |
Government, was intended to be managed in the |
interest Of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts |
The language of the Congressional act substanti-
ally is; ''The leading object shall be to |
teach such branches OF learning AZ
are related to Agriculture and the |
Mechanic Arts" an object that deeply in |
Ierests me and approves itself to my judgment. |
II has been and shall continue to be my pur- |
pose to exert what little influence have to di- |
rect the institution in that COURSE 80 long as |
may be permitted to hold trusteeship.
Respectfully, DAVID ]. MURPHY.

Highway RobberIes,

Two DARING ATTEMPTS, LAST NIoHT-THE woQID-
BE ROBBERS IN THE CELLS.
Last night, about II o'clock as Jesse Watson
residing at 214 Jefferson street, was returning
from one of his society meetings, he was attack
ed, at the corner of Second and Orange streets,
by two negro men. A short, sharp conflict gave
him the mastery over his assailants, and he
started on his way home. At second and JEFF
ferson, however, the would-be robbers again
overlook him and another struggle ensued, in
which Mr.. W. sustained several bruises and the
dislocation Of his left arm.
The noise created by this second assault
brought to the front-door Mr.. Watson's wife and
daughter. who were still out Of bed awaiting his
return. They at once ran to the assistance OF
Mr.. W., saving him furtberinjury and his pocket
book, which was the object OF the assault. Dr.
West reset the arm, and Mr. watson is able to
be about to-day.
At later hour in the night, Mr.. William
Strickland was assaulted by two men in Orange
street, between 9th and 9th, and an attempt
was made to relieve him Of his pocket book He
gave fight and an alarm at the same time, and
was able to hold one of the men, isaiah Temple,
until assistance arrived. The othe- man, Geo.
Morris, fled, but was arrested this morning, and
both are now in the cells, held in 900 security
each for court
Mr.. Strickland is a resident of Chesapeake
City, Nd, and came here yesterday to attend
Market
The two colored men now in prison are be-
lieved to be the same ones who made the as
Bault on Mr.. Watson. His daughter, in fact,
thinks she recognizes them as the parties.
