The DOWNWARD COURSE Yesterday there
passed down Market street an aged, care. worn,
weather beaten old man. There is nothing
peculiar IN seeing aged men on our thorough
iares, but the individual referred to had won
hls sllvery hair and emacated form not in
lighting liie's battle and making conquests in
behalf of manhood, but in simply living life
OF dissipation, in warning against his better
reason, and plunging into the very gulf of dis
honor and crime. Twenty-Five years ago he
stood upon the threshold of an honorable
career; life was before him, wealth had lavished
upon him good education, yet all we're sub
sequeEtly made tributary to an innate passion,
over which he had no control. Step by step
ne descended 10 his pres ut level aud il vet
falling lower. Wrecked in fortune, intellect
and health, he is only little higher than
orute[and mere waif on the tempestuous
sea OF life. While one can pity such persons
he cannot save them IHa0ltuqton Adrertiser,

Owing to the Inconvenience caused by the

That BRIDGE.-The question of building
bridge across Smyrna Creek, at or near Dea.
kyne's Landing, which has been agitated for
the last sixty years or more, seems no nearer
a solution n wv than it was when the question
was first raised. At the last session of the
Legislature an act was passed making the con
struction of pivot bridge across said Greek
lawful, and the Levy Courts of the respective
counties, Kent and New Castle, were required
to make the necessary appropriations in the
following explicit language, viz: And the
Levy Court and Court of Appeals of each of
said counties shall, at their March session
lSi2, make the necessary appropriations for
the making, construction and erection of a
GOOD and sufficient bridge" &c. 1t was sun
posed that the law would be obeyed and the
bridge be constructed last year, but by some
hocus-pocus the Levy Court Of this county
defeated the letter and spirit of the act re-
quIrlng It's construction. Committees of the
respective Levy Courts Of each county met
the frceholders in May last and viewed the
site selected, after which the New Castle Levy
Coult made its share Of the appropriation, but
the Levy Court of this county refused to ap-
proDrlate its share, and has 50 refused up to
the present And now it is asking that the
Ia" be a'ncuded by the inserting of the word
ma" where the word shall occurs No
one Is opp .-iHr the construction of the bridge
Sd ~ w. save majority Of the Levy
Oonrt, who take 1t upon themselves to decide
the question in opposition to the public inter
ests and the expressed letter of the law. And
they even ask that the law be amended to sui
their whim. If the Legislature cannot make
the laws to suit them they will disobey them
AS the Levy Court prefers to violate the
law rather than build the bridge, and as il
refuses to appropriate, law or no law, we can
not see why it is concerned for any law in tho
matter. If it have any quams of consciencc

A SERIOUS STABBING AFFAIR AT MILLING
TON Last Thursday evening a bar room
quarrel in the hotel of Alex. Maxwell, in Mil
lingtOn, Md, resulted in the serious stabbng
OF VIM. ). Green, Of that town, (recently of
Smyrna) at the hands of John s. Waters, of
Marydel. There had been a disagreement
between the parties growing out of business
transaction, and when they met in the bar
room, both intoxicated Green accosted Waters
in relation to the matter in dispute Waters
would not comply with Green's requests, and
Green slapped him in the face. Waters turned
his back and Green triel TO make him face
him, when Waters turned upon him with a
knife and cut him iearfuIly in the neck, side
and arm. 1t was thought for while, that
Green's injuries would prove fatal, but he is
recovering. Waters said that he was prepared
to meet the demands Of the law and went to
bed. In The morning he went with an officer
to Chestertown, and after herring was held to
bail in $500 for his appearance at court. He
Offered to enter in hi, own rccornzance, but two
friends insisted on becoming his bondsmen,
and the Justice accepted them 1t is stated
that Waters suggested before the iracas, that,
both being Odd Fellows, they could settle the
matter amicibly, but even this tie of fellowship
was not potent under the circumstances. The
bar keeper was also cut in trying to separate
them. Green demanded payment for tin roof
ing house, and Waters refused because il was
poorly done, he said.

DELAWARE COLLEGE.-Congress failed to
pass the bill granting additional aid to Agrcul-
tural Colleges, and in view of this fact the
friends of Delaware College have introduced a
bill in the House of Representatives asking an
appropriation from the State for this college TO
the amount of $1,000 for two years, in conside-
ration of which the college offers to educate
and qualify for the duties OF teachers of com
mon schools, thirty students, ten from each
General Assembly, said students to be under
obligations to serve the State in the Ca pacity
OF teachers for one year after graduation.
The Faculty of the College in their memorial
to the Legislature say:
! We, the Faculty Of Delaware College, 1e-
| spectiully represent, that the interest arising
from vested funds received under the Con-
gresslOnal Land Grant OF 1862, is insufficient
to meet the increasing wants of our institution,
and consequently we are compelled to make
application to the Legislature for relief
| The entire amount of income derived from
the said fund is $4, $780, and our corps of i'll
Structors as established by the Board of Trus.
tees, is composed of President and Professor
OF Mental and Moral Science, Professor Of
Agriculture and Mathematics, Professor of
Ancient Languages, Professor of Chemistry,
and Professor Of Modern Languages and
Military Tactics
Inc COllege was opened tor the reception of
students on tie 18th Of September, 1870 and
as at that time there was an accumulation of
Interest, the Trustees were enabled to conduct
1t Tor twelve months without difficulty, but in
the Collegiate year, l87l-72, they would have
been compelled to reduce the number of In
structOrS, and lower the standard of scholar
ship, had not a member of the Board gener-
OuSly offered to make up the deficiency which
then became apparent. The same gentleman
continues hls contribution during the present
year, but OF course We have no right to tax his
generosity further Thus it is manifest that
our income is inadequate to the support of the
institution, and for the coming year we shall
need at least two additional Professors, as the
number of classes will be increased and our
present force will be unable to carry out the
course OF instruction
No institution Of this character in the United
States is sustained by the proceeds arising
from tuition fees, as it is an established policy
TO reduce the cost OF instruction to the students
to minimum. We have at this time thirty.
seven students, representing all portions of our
State, and twenty two Of them are instructed
gratnltou>! y. This liberal course will be un-
queSti0nahly continued
After mature dehberation, and bv the advice
OF the Trustees, the L Guilty Of Delaware Col.
lege have concluded to lay this statement be.

the Legislature an appropriation of three thou
sand dollars per annum for two years.

SF. PATRICK's 3 DAY.-There was general
observance of St. Patrick's Day on Monday
last, all over the United States. A bright.
clear sky, and one of the fairest of fair days
marked the anniversary of Irelands patron
saint In Philadelphia the main feature of the
outdoor celebration was the procession of the
Beneficial, Total Abstinence and other civic
societies. This was, by far, the finest display
ever made in that city by Philadelphians of
Irish origin. 1t was gratifying to note through
out the long line that the prominent ideas
symbolized with Religion were the two virtues.
Sobriety and Benevolence. In New York. the
procession estimated at $4,000 persons, was
reviewed by the Mayor. In Washington. the
parade was considered the largest of the kind
ever seen in that city. It was reviewed by the
President from the portico of the White House.
Many OF the houses were decorated with flags
and evergreens, that OF General Sherman being
conspicuous in this respect In Richmond
Va, the parade was reviewed by Governor
Walker aud Mayor Kelley. In Boston. New
Orleans, Baltimore, Trenton, Providence, and
other cities, there were also general obsery-
ances of the day. The professions everywhere
were chiefly composed of religious, total absti
Bence and beneficial societies.
