EdIIOrInI NOtea.

Our Pennsylvania neghbors are not
slow to attribute every disgrace which is
brought to light in this state as a new
evidence of Delaware depravity, yet not
within our recollection has anything been
discovered in Delaware so derogatory to
the peoples character and so utterly and
mexcusably disgraceful as the state OF
affairs which the Philadelphia Bulletin
declares recently existed in Delaware
county almshouse.
The permanent debt Of New York city,
Comptroller Green declares, is increasing
with frightful rapidity. During the past
year the receipts from taxes and income
were ave, $50, OOe, while the expenditures
were t52, 1890, 600. Thisis frightful truly,
and should send little nervous thrill
through every resident Of any city. 1t is
one of the things TO be frightened at, this
persistent tendency Of cities to incur ever
increasing debts.
The Farmers Clib is the name Of a
new weekly agricultural and local paper
just started at Oxford, Pa. 1t is n hand
some folio with six columns to the page.
1t is Republican In politics.
1t Is proposed to change the nRmeToi
Georgetown, d. C., to West Washington
We hope they won't, as the District now
has one city named after the first name
and one after the last name of the Father
Of his Country. If they must consolidate,
however, suppose they call themselves
George Washington.
Our agricultural contributors "Ilinis
for September" form a charming article,
which will prove pleasant reading for
nearly every one and very useful reading
to his fellow farmers.
The Philadelphia Herald makes tho pre-
posterous claim that Philadelphia is the

AMUSEMENTS.
Janauschek's Marie Stuart.

Janauschek's Marie Stuart.
The Jsnauschek engagement opened grand
ly last night with schiller's saddening play Oh
Marie Stuart. There vas, of course, very
full house, and everybody present was charm
ed with the living picture of the hapiess
Queen of Scots. The Elizabeth, the Leicester
and the Mortimer Of the evening, all had their
merits; but they all seemed feeble by contrast
in the strong and towering presence OF the
central figure. The scene between the two
Queens in the Forest of Fotherlngay was
nobly given, and It's elimination was ap-
piauded to the echo.
Tonight Janauschek appears In what we
,udge to be the very best OF the characters sne
IA accustomed to assume on the American
boards. Her Deborah Is In every reupect ad-
mirable. She looks as well as acts the out
cast Jewess to perfection; and her rendition
of the part is, perhaps, the most Intense por'

The Financial Chronicle says: The market the

At the same time foreign accounts have been dull:

Satisfactory Trial and Working Oh
Machine.


Satisfactory Trial and Working ofthe
Machine.
The new phosphate dredge south Oarol'na:
built for Messrs. Campbell & Wyllie, OF the
Oak Point Mines, was tested yesterday al tne
wharf of Pregnalrs ship yard, under lne super
vision of MI. Edmund F. Kttoe, the manager
of the above named mines. The dredge mas
been named In honor of the adopted seaee oi
her owners. The test was Satisfactory
demonstration of the efficiency OF the ma
chine. The machinery worked with perfect
ease, and turned the huge crane ABOUT as Il IL
had been nothing more than an ordinary
walking cane. The trial was made IN the
presence OF large number OF gentlemen e4-
perlenced in marine mining.
The machinery was built by hessrs. Star
buck Brothers, of Troy, New York, and Is OF
the latest designs, with the most recent I'M
provements. The engines have two twelve
inch cylinders, with twelve inch stroke, az
tached to q substs ntial cast iron frame, Dolted
ends on, causing the strain to be direct acting.
The cylinders are steam jacketted, and the
slides are cast In an .orm q part OF the frame,
adding very much 10 It's compactness
and rigidlly. The crank shaft and
hoistlng aud backing drums are 30
arranged that either can be taken
out without disturbing the others. The back
ing drum Is worked by friction, thus avoiding
the frequent breaking OF the chain. There Is
O. double engine (fve-inch cylinders with eight
inch stroke) below deck for swinging the
crane and hoisting the spuds, which can be
worked separately or together. The boiler Is
a return tubular, set in brick with beautiful
| front setting, and Is capable Of carrying With
safety q pressure of one hundred pounds to
the inch. 1t has double-actng donkey pump
with hre.hose attached. The extension crane
ia the invention of Ralph r. Osgood, patented
June %, 1870, and ls capable of litting fifty
tons twenty-five feet high, and deposlting the
| material fifty feet from the centre OF the
boat. The weight complete is nineteen tons.
The boat was built by Mr.. Samuel Pregnall
from Mr. Osgood's designs. The dimensions
are: Length seventy-fve feet, beam twenty
eight feet, depth OF hold six feet. 1t Is fiat
| bottomed. with Two outer sides six inches
thick, and TWO inner sides four Inches thick,
bolted together with seven-elghts Inch bolts
two feet apart. There are eleven fore and aft
keelsonp, twelve inches by fifteen Inches
square, and seven cross keelsons fourteen
inches square. The engine tmbers, fifteen
inches square, run clear to the bulk-head.
The hold Is fastened 10 the most substantial
manner, with live oak and hackmatack knees,
With seven-eights and one-inch bolts, with
cllnch rings The machinery was put In under
the supervision of Mr.. G. D. Hamlll, the skill,
tul representative OF Mesars. Starbuck Bros.
At the conclusion OF the test the company
present were invited to partake of an elegant
collation. provided by Mr.. Hamill, which
called forth an abundant expression OF good
feeling for the owners of the craft, and rnu
tual interchange of toasts.
