BANNER PREsENTATIeN.- Yesterday an inter
esting ceremony took place in the basement of
st. Mary's Catholic church, which attracted
large throng of spectators. The attraction was
the presentation of beautiful banner to St
Mary's Temperance Cadets by the congregation.
The presentation speech was made by Mrs.
Lena Rebman, and the banner was received on
behalf of the Cadets by Master Charles Nc
Donough, who made quite neat reply. The
banner is of blue silk with bullion fringe, with
a madonna and child on the front, and the in
scription, 'St. Mary's Temperance Cadits, Will
mington Delaware, 1872" on the reverse. The
now number nearly 80 members. and are strictly
pledged against liquor apd the use of tobacco,
and the kindness of the friends in making this
beautiful present Is a source of infinite pleas
ure to them.

train left the Philadelphia depot Thursday the
left side Of the smoking car collided with q
limo car which was standing on side track,
near switch probably, and projecting more
than it should nave done. A slight scratch near
the centre of the smoking car was the first re-
suit, hut the blow threw the lime car still nearer
to the passing train, and every succeeding car
had it's panneing and moulding scraped of in
line about foot wide, extending from end to
end. The damage was all done in less than
half minute, yet il is 80 extensive as to neees-
state the sending Of the entire train, four cars,

train, and made such racket that there was

AN HEIRLooM.-AIr. Geo. W. Greenman has in
his possion a snuif-box which has descended
from generation to generation, until it is be-
leyed to he two centuries old 1t is peculiar
looking relic. Made of brass, it has withstood
the wear of time, and the curiosity of the thing
itself has doubtless caused its preservation. 1t
is much larger than modern snuif-boxes and of
an entirely different shape, being three or four
inches long, by about one and one-half wide and
one deep. On each side are engraved images not
unlike those found in mythology, and under
these inscriptions in an unknown tongue These
are believed to contain something of its history,
of which Mr.. G. knows nothing but he will be
obliged if some one will translate them for him
