The repetition of the Petersburg dance, spok-

coming off on the 10Th, took place on the slh
and we must say was the grandest success known
of in this section Of The country. We do not for
get the "Moss-rese hop" when we say this, for
it was success, and this excelled in both the
style of the company and the dancing. NJ iss
Saugston and Miss Zero, Of Greensboro, the
the Misses Carter, of Henderson, the Misses
Riggs. Of Smyrna, Mics Green, Of Camden and
and Miss Jones, Of Baltimore, were the finest
dancers on the iloor, some Of whom, are the
finest women that Delaware can boast Of
The gentleman acquitted themselves nobly Y, both
upon the platform and iu their superior attention
to the ladies.
On account of the distance which many OF the
participants came, the dancing did not commence
until o'clock and ended at o'clock, A. NJ.
All seemed to enjoy themselves exceedingly,
and took an active part in the hop, an unusual
part of which, were the fancy dances, they being
executed most beautifully and gracefully BY the
ladies and gentlemen on the floor, showing a
great proficiency on their part.
The music. was as usual very good 1t was a
beautiful night; such an one for STARRY ram
BILE" The refreshments were served, as before,
by Mr.. Grub.
On account OF the size and superior quality of
the platform, the Magnolia gentlemen have &C.
cured it an will soon have dance upon it,,
known as the magnolia hop"
Marydel says that Petersburg shall not sur
pass her, that they will have smother hop in
September they are also talking Of having a
dancing master. Petersburg will have to see to
it, for those large tomato fields near Marydel
and the canning factory will bring the money

fer to the Registrar tho powers now vested in

sloners for the control aud regulation OF

tho Rogidtrar shall be appointed by
the Governor. It is required TINT tho
Registrar shall be porson acquainted
with the buainess Of warehouBing, and the iss1l-
ing and canceling OF receipts, but not Interested
directly or indirectly, in my warehouse. His
salary Ia fixed at q, 900 year, and he IL allowed
such assistants, office, books, etc., as may be
necessary to the discharge Of Ills duties. The
main purpose Of the bill seems to bo tho contral-
ization OF tho controlling power in one person,
who shall bo GU tue spot. as it requres tho ap-
poiutmont OF Registrar for every city which
contains warehouses Of Glass A,-that is, public
warehouses; whore erain ia mixed, in ctieB Of not
