WILLOW GROVE, DEL, July q, 1874.
MIR. EpIToR In looking over the Smyrna
Times of July Sth we were somewhat surprised
at seeing a communication from Marydei, emil
tied, "Semi-Devh Meetings." over the signature
of "Morning Glory" surprised not that such
being as its author might be found in some dark
corner OF civiliz itson, but surprised tat ono so
regardless OF truth and 80 lost To refinement anu
decent language should have an abode anywhere
around abou. Marydel. Our first inclination was
tn answer this communication, but mature reiiec-
tion led us TO think what later information las
confirmed, that it's author Is u social magot on
legs trying 10 work itself into good society, and
faing to receive an invitation to our dancing
pic-nlcs in question, has poured its little smatter
ot borrowed brains out IN abuse upon us. 10
argue question of any kind it is all important
TO divest oneself 0l prejudice and adhere closely
TO the truth, of which Qualification "Mornlng
Glory" has shown himself to be 4 man OF the
very smallest magnitude. However, ii this sweet
scented "Morniug Glory" wishes TO waste its
Sweetness upon the desert air it can do so. We
| therefore challenge Mr.. "Morning Glory" Tor Il

| the wrongs of public balls aud dancing But we
shall enoin the following conditions upon him

and msIepresent his neighbors thus at any time
much less with such very indecent language
Though public journal, and then withhold III;
| real name-leaylng the awful accusation liable t.
tall upon some innocent party. 1t is proper fol
La man to hold q social chat with his friends
through public journal and withhold his rea
name, but to abuse and misrepresent his neigh

real nalne is mol right, and no gentleman will d.

of the area in wheat IN that district ct 200, 900.
OF this probably not less than $50, 900 acres
have been destroyed This represents not less
than 100000 bushels of wheat devoured in the
germ or milk by grasshoppers, or about one
twelfth of the wheat crop of the State. Add TO
this 10000 acres Of oats at SO bushels per acre,
or l,3200O0 bushels in all, or one-twelilh of the
oat crop of the State, 200O0 acres of corn at 80
bushels per acre, or 100000 bushels, or one
twelfth Of the corn crop of the State, and per-

Whenever you find stout, healthy minister OF

"hsly and sincere admiration and affection,
which sentiment Is reciprocated by your wife,
having "lotty, spiritual. religious yearniug and
pure platonic love for that priest that attracts
her frequently TO his side do you, unsophisticated

next time that minister calls at your residence Ia
peddie his spiritual essence" take him gently by
the coat collar, make a short Grafton, whereof the
perorahon shall be 'get out !" and then clinch the
argument n pnsterto,i with them stogs. ITS the
best way to get along with al intimacy, innocent
though it may lie, that sometimes brings "heap
