all around the room for good sPL 10 deposiI the
eggs in. The bureau suggested itsrlf, but the
thought struck hIm that the chambermald might

sleep there all night, and then make ii all square
with the landlord next morning. tie accordingly
quietly up sIairs, found the door Of his late
| room untasened and entered. lie speedily dIVested
hImself OF his apparel, and then turning down the
clothes sprang INTO bed. What the exact state of
his feelings at that moment was. will be
rately known. As he s9uashed down upon the eggs
he gave scream ard sprang ou; OF bed. He ran
n the door and and called for John. the colored help.
Presently John arrived with light, and the
| landlord aud his Company followed. The bOarder
was in a shnckmg condition, and cruuched down by
| the side Of the bureau. Mr.. ScrovIn entered and
inspect the bed. lie was a very angry man
Then he wanted to inspect the border with his
boot, but rot permitted. Explanation followed

one Of the most unpOpItIOus-the rain pouring

highest anticIpaIinns. The subscriptions 10 the
morning reached 50 400 which increased in the
after part Of the day to 81 060. The former sub

same floor two large class rooms and an lnfant
School room. The Trustees will proceed TO finish
the upper room the weather permits.

ordinary difficulty, all the wealthy elderly members
still standing out IN active opposition, hut its success
is more than assured. The subscriptions leave but
900 the contract price with the old church yet

Mans and Advertiser says that the "Only require.
ment is the capilaI;" that if"a few leading capt

plenty of capital already invested in National and
State Bonds TO furnish the means. and the only
work necessary is TO turn these investments into

WHAT THEY PRoPosE TO Do.-The little bunch OF
Democrats who met in Wilmington TO see about the
starting of that new Democratic daily paper ln
that city, few weeks ago, resolved to hold meet
ing, or convention, in Dover on the 10Th lnst'' II
will be remembered. Mr.. VIM. REYNOLDS Secretary
of that lille bunch of Democrat has written letter
telling what is proposed TO be done at said meeting
He says: AT the party meeting TO be held 10
Dover January 6, is proposed To discuss some OF
the measures likely to come before the Legislature
viz: The ten cent tax on travel the tax OF seven
dollars aud a.hali indirectly laid upon the peach
grower; a division of New Castle Co.; State
Convention the tax on bonds and mortgages; tax
on labor attachment of wages exemption the
making Of labor preference claim IN bdnktuPlcy'
&c, &c. These and many other matters Will make
the Dover meeting an interesting and important
one, and one that every Democrat, who possibly
| can should attend. Application has been made to
the railroad authorities for haffare rates from all
| points on the Delaware Railroad. The meeting
will be organized at two o'clock, L. NJ, IN the
parl of The Capital Hotel and business at once
taken up in order to be ready for the return trains
DOVER, LEwEs AND REHoBoTH AIR LINE RAILROAD.
Among the raIlruud projects that will be before
the Legislature for charter this winter. will be one
strongly supported by parties able 10 put ii speedily
into pra ccal operation, for airline road Intrrscc-
ing the Delaware Road at Dover, and passing
through Magnoa, Frederick, Milford, and Milton
to point two miles south.w est of Lewes, where IL
will send off four and ah4lf mile branch to Reho.
both CITY and another curving into Lewes just south
of the Junction & Breakwaler depot and terminal,
ing al the Government Iron Landing Pier opposite
the BreakwateT. We learn that this enterprise is
backed with abundance OF capital and that there
~Ill be difficulty delay in It's construction as
s1On the charter be obtained. Thus road Will
shorten the distance from Dover to Lewes and Reho-
both about Twenty-Five miles, and will run through
the richest and best developed parts Of both Kent
and Sussex Counties So says the Milford NeUs
which seems very confident. II will be big thing
for Delaware to support two parallel lines Of rail-.
road in such population as Kent and Sussex can
afford. Maybe Rehuboth, the prospective summer
| resort, gives inspiration TO the move.
