S,uedes.-Therc has been some trouble with
a few of the Swedish emigrants leaving their
places, and at meeting Of the association last
Saturday evening, to inquire into the cause
thereof, 1t was stated that Rev. Mr.. Dahleen,
who has been ssnt here TO labor among the
Sweeds, has given them such advice as to pro-
,luce dissatisfaction. 1t was, therefore, resolved
that he was unworthy of confidence and steps
will accordingly be taken 10 acquaint the
Home Mission Of his doings. 1t is 10 be regret
ed that any difficulty should occur with these
emigrants as it may check movement that Is
calculated TO benefit all parties concerned. 1t
would be well if all peisJas would refuse to en-
ploy any one who may leave his or her place
until it Is asccriained that good and sufficient
cause was given fol. the adoption of such action
Persons who advance passage money should
have fair guarantee that the contract Should
be complied with.

Unrdy Boys.--It is said that school district
No. ., Bran1ywine Hundred, Is favored with
as mischieyous set Of boys as can be found
In the State. 1t is stated that they not only
set the mistress at defiance last session, but
abused the school house very badly, breaking
the roof, knocking off the drops, cracking the
bell, &c. As a consequence we suppose 1t was
determined at the school meeting on Saturday
to employ male teacher and only keep the
school open seven months in the year. Some
of the residents of the District who have small
children, who cannot well attend school in the
winter, stongly object to this arrangement as
they feel that it is unjust to compel them Ia
pay the tax unless the school is open at the
season of the year that they can get benefit
from it. The bad boys should be taught bet
Ter manners, and their parents should be held
responsible for hair acts, they cannot legally
escape making good any damage they may will
fully do to the property of Others.

The Floating Debt.-The bill authorizing the
City to issue bonds to the amount of 100000,
to fund the floating debt, passed the Senate on
Monday, and Is now law. The city expendi-
lures exceeded the receipts some $4,000 while
the Democrats were in authority in 1871, and
with the demand for improvements, the liepub-
licans have found it impossible to reduce the
amount, which had Lecome burdensome, and
hence the necessity for funding the same.-lt
seems TO be the fate Of great cities to have great
debts, but so long AS the increase Of taxable
property advances in the same ratio, the in
crease of the tax rate is not felt TO be burden
some. There is great demand in Our city fol
improvements, and they cannot be made with
out money. The question of cost is not so i'm
poriant, as that of will they return six pei
cent oa the same? All OUTLAWS for improve
ments that will do this should be made al once
aud those which will not should lay over TO :
more convenient season.

WREcKs.-We published OIL Monday a list Of
wrecks occurring on the Delaware shore, with
In the past year, compiled by our fe How citizen
Francis Vincent, who desires to have couple
Of life-boat stations to rescue the lives Of those
who may be so unfortunate as to be cast away
within the boundaries ofour States. 1t is more
than probable that had such stations been there
there would not have been any loss Of life
In the recent wreck of the Norwegian vessel
As nearly all these wrecks occur upon our
coast between Rehoboth Bay and Lewestown,
n distance of three or four miles, the people at
the new watering place, Rehoboth City, and
the new Camp Meeting ground will have
chance upon the ir visits to assist In saving
some shipwrecked sailors. These too who de-
sire to see wreck, will have an opportunity to do
to whilst visiting the new watering place. Mr..
Frcdermah, the keeper of the hotel there, rem
dered good service in saving the goods Of the
ship John Sydney, while Mr.. John W. Walker
rendered yeomans service in saving life. The
reason the vessels are wrecked ON the Della
ware instead of the Jersey coast Is that the
North East storms that wreck them blow on
our shores, and that the breakwater which
they try to make for harbor Is within cur linz

A California girl, eighteen years of age, the
daughter of industrious, Woodworking parents
has been of unsound mind all her life until two
weeks ago, sometimes excessively violent D.; al
others quiet but irresponsible. One morning
she fell into deep sleep from which she never
aroused until seventy-two hours had passed.
From this long sleep she awakened free from
the thraldom OF idiocy, and blessed with the
heavenly boon of intelligence. She recognizes
none of the persons whom she knew before
with the exception of the members Of her owr
family, and naturally feels and acts in man,
respects like a new being, which il may well b.
said she is in fact.
