CoRREcTIoN.-In making a correction
OF tho proof on Saturday, the compost
tor made an important error in our re
marks in reply to Mr.. Maris' interroca
tory, in brief communication TO III,
GAZETTE, and we republish it corrected
We are perfectly willing that Mr.. Mari,
may have all the advantage he can gel
on this question. For should he den,
that he is in favor Of the Civil Right.
Bill, it would not avail, since the party
TO which he belongs and from which he
received his nomination is irreyocably
pledged to the bill. Therefore the only
way to defeat the introduction of the

In a Bal Condition.

The City Council has put New Castl,
Avenue i'll very bad condition and S,
left it. Previous to its commencing tn,
work Of grading and curbing, the roa.
was good one; and had they curbe,
and paved it rs far as the w. & W. X. X
and stopped, they might have benefited
the people that travel over it. But Of
late the Street Committees work seems
to be budget Of blunders. Some weeks
ago they cut down this Avenue to the
city line, and deposited the curb stones
all the way along it and there they lie
ready to cripple up any poor horse that
happens to run against them, or becomes
frightened mt their hileous and insight
iy appearance. Besides this the road in
some pieces now after a rain is a mere
quagmire whereas it used to be "A nice
solid drive. This is especially the case
opposite Eden Park" What the own
ers OF these properties have done that
they should be treated in this manner is
hard to determine. If the Street Com.
mlttee cannot do better they should re-
sign and let more competent mon be APP
pointed.
We have heretofore referred 10 the
English Bull and its extravagant use
We hear It Is to be transferred to French
street next. Here again the Committee
has shown its littleness, in widening the
loot pavements of this noble street only
one foot instead ~ tuyo or tl,.. l.. r.
the extension Of one foot will not pay
Tor the change Of the curb; and we be-
heve II will cost more in the end than
TWO feet would, because Of the difficulty
an getting a solid basis for the curb in
the proposed change. If two or three
feet were added to the pavement it
would more than repay the cost to prop
erty holders but the addition Of one
loot will make no perceptible change
and cost nearly as much
The Doctor IS one Of the prominent
leaders Of fanaticism in our State, and
1t is said he went the whole figure for
social equality IN his spec n, although
he Is only reported AS favoring the Civil
Rights Bill in mild form. He said that
" the Republican, party were not in
favor Of the Civil Rights Bill because if
was the friend Of the negro, but in favor
Of any special legislation for any class
Of citizens. We are willing to give the
colored people all the rights to which
they are entitled before the law, and We
are sure that they desire nothing more"
Now, if we are not mistaken, the Doc
tor is fully aware that in nearly every
Convention held by negroes they have
resolved to demand all the rights and
privileges accorded to white citizens.
and they have always urged the passage
by Congress of Summers Supplementary
Civil Rights Bill.

The paucity OF the numbers that at
tend Radical meetings was remarkably
illustrated on Friday night, and DIR. Da.
wilson, Of the Milford N1ce must have
felt that he was wasting his energies us
well as his words. The few that occu.
pied the benches were SO attentive
that an occasional yawn might be heardj
while the few struggling negroes who
stood about the door looked for all the
world AS though they would like to he
somewhere else, but feared to venture
out of the hall lest some of the official
spies would accuse them of interrupting
the meeting 1t is true that the plat
form was well filled-the weighty men
having all crowded upon it. Had some
ocular friend been present he might
have been tempted to repeat the stale
joke, in part, 10y advising the Doctor to
strike the desk more lightly lest the
hall should tilt up. We admit that the
meeting was pretty well attended con-
sidering the disheartening returns from
Ohio, Indiana, New Jersey, and even
Iowa, where the Democrats have won
such cheering victories. The Radicals
evidently feel that there is no use in Ia
boring in Democratic Delaware for negro
domination when they cannot hold their
own States against the tidal wave that

PITPERISM As A POLITE
GIL M1CHINE.

When the Radicals in the hast Con-
gress voted away half million of the peo-
pies money on pretence of aiding and
Hiccoring the victims Of thelSouthern in
undations. we protested against the act
as case not OF raising money indeed,
but of spending money ION false pre-
fences"
The precedent Of pauperizing citizens
of one part of the country at the expense
Of those OF other parts of the country was
a bad and dangerous precedent to set or
itself; but the case was made much worse
by the quite obvious certainty that the
money thus voted away would never
reach the real sufferers by the Southern
foundations All that we foretold has
come to pass. I'm Alabama we have seen
this money bestowed in the form of IA
tions on negroes inhabitinga highupland
region quite above "high-water mark,
and never touched by the floods. How
the same money went. and what work it
has done in Louisiana, We learn from an
obviously candid witness in Republi-

There you have it. First pauperizc
the blacks of the South with money taken
from the pockets of the lal,orng people
of the North; then increase the standing
army at the expense of the laboring PEG
pie of the North. in order to secure to
these pauperizcd blacks the political con
troll of the South, then march up these
pauperized blacks between rows of Fed
cral bayonets to vote for third term
for Grant, who will support them this

EXTRACT.
The Civil Rights Bill, Mixed Schools
and Misccgenation.
Below we give an exact official copy OF
| the infamous Civil Rights Bill,
for which Joshua Maris
voted" j. MARIs.
OF course Mr. Maris knows to what
vote we allude. He must remember
that he was member of the legislature
and voted against the resolutions in OPP
position to the Civil Rights Bill, with
other Republican members Of the Della
ware House Of Representatives These
resolutions were offered and put before
the House, no doubt, with the view to
take the sense of the members upon the
principles of that bill. This was under
stood at the time; and we find Mr.. Mar
is name among those who voted against
them. Therefore he voted indirectly in
favor Of the principles involved in the
Civil Rights Bill; as they contained in
structions to our Senators to vote against
that bill If Mr.. Maris is not fairly repre-
scented in this matter we would be glad
to hear that he is opposed TO this odious
measure, and offer him the opportunity
to place himself right on the record

NIoLETS.-Pcrhaps it may interest
some of our female friends to know how
to raise i'm winter those sweet scented and
beautiful little iIowcr>-NiulctS. First,
take few old boards and construct n
bottumlc>s box. about three or four feet
in length and two feet square sinking 1t
in the earth nearly its full depth, on the
sunny side of the garden. The top ofthc
box should be slanting and c"xercd with
n Cla,s door or lid on hinges. After
having the box well fixed, plant five
or six good healthy violet stalks,
and the bed is complete. But to run the
same successfully great care is necessary.
During the day, in warm and pleasant
weather, the glass lid should be opened,
but always closed at night. When cold
weather sets in the plants should be we'll
covered with dry leaves and when want
cd to bloom the covering removed. On
very cold nights the box should be cover
ed with three or four pieces of carpet, as
also on very cold days. The plan has
been known to work, and violets on
Christmas and New Year made quite
plentiful.
