P0st and PillOry.

ONE MAN PILLoRIED ANE ONE MAN WHIP
PED ON SATURDAY.
There was but one candidate for the
pillory at New Castle on Saturday-the
poor dupe, William Thomas remained one
hour in the stocks for an assault on John
p. Cochran, Esq, Nov. 3, 1870. He returned
to Jail to serve out q term Of three years.
1t is needless to say that his Republican
friends who got him into this trouble,
still withhold their presence and sym.
pathy.
John Thompson received ten lashes
being lightly laid on. He was convicted
of the larceny of wagon. He returned
to his cell after his punishment, there te
remain one year.
The whipping to-day did not cause any
interest or excitement, and the number
of spectators was small.

THE AUTOMATIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY 10
ESTABLISH AN OFFICE IN THIS CITY.
Some time ago, we published q rumor,
to the effect that the Automatic Tele-
graph Company, Of Now York, proposed
establishing an Office in this city.
This rumor has resolved itself into q
definite fact, the Company having resolv-
ed to establish their line in Wilmington.
On Thursday evening next they will Pc
tition the City Council for permission to
erect telegraph polls within our city linn
its, and as soon as possible, all arrange
ments will bs completed, and the Office
opened.
The office will be in II. r. Robinson &
Co.'s banking Office, N. E. corner Fourth
and Market streets, q location central and
easy Of access.
The new line will probably offer cheap
er rates for the transmission Of messages
than the existing lines, and therefore the
success Of the Automatic Company will
be wished for by many people.
