on each corner In succession. and the
whole mass Of nth was In this way conveyed
into the sewers. From the manner in which
the Job WIS carried out, it Is presumed that
the same thing has been done before; in-
deed. every one. sweepers, hydrant operators,
and all, appeared to be just as handy as a cat Is
with her claws. The result, Of course, has been
TO choke the sewers from Fourteenth street to
the Battery. No wonder that both adults aud
children slcken and die from the effects Of the
noxious gases which constantly force their

houses. il there no way TO put STOP TO this
outrage IN the future? Is 1t nobody's bust ness

Bengalese article known to the English through
the eastronomic devotion Of the army In India,
then II should be accompanied with the reguli-

There IS not the slightest doubt that one
appro priation to the Philadelphia Exhibition
would be but the prelude TO other jobs In its
interest. Its managers expressly stipulated
that they would never ask dollar from Con-
gress, but they arc now boring with all their
might for a million and q half-thelr first strike.
They are, OF course, ready to stipulate again
that they will not ask dollar moro than this ;
but in doing 80 they should have their nrst slip
ulation thrust In their face. II they got the
money they now demand, they would soon be
back for twice as much, and they would not In
the end be satisfied with less than Ave OF ten

We should really like to get full
and authentic report OF that singular meet
ing recently held In Paris by thousand
Jewish Frenchmen, which Brother Moody
referred to at bis great meeting in
Philadelphia on Wednesday evening. Brother
MOODY merely told that, on the occasion In
question, one OF the jewish orators boosted over
the cruclhxion, saying, I'VE have the honor OF
killing the Christians God" and that these sem
timents OF this Jewish orator were greatly APP
plauded by the Jewish audience. We should
like TO know the date at which this Jewish
meeting was held, the building in which II was
held, and the name Of the orator whose language
Brother MOODY quoted. IL there was report
Of the meeting given In any of tho Paris papers,
or by any OF the Parts correspondents OF Eng
lish or American papers, we must have over
looked II. We feel quite sure that the lsraelitcs
I'm general do not boast over the execution OF
JESUS CHRIST, under the Roman law, by Roman
authority, at the order OF PoNTIus PLATE, car
red out by his soldiers. We must say Brother
MOODY should be careful about giving proper
authority for such statement as that which he
made. He did well to condemn the men who
were responsible for the crucnxion; but the
whole jewish race to the present day should not
be objects Of prejudice on account Of It. CHRlsr
himself was a jew, and so were all his twelve
apostles.

We may expect TO hear news OF disor-
ders in Mississippi by way Of Washington, from
this time forward until the efforts OF Senator
Morton and his followers to reverse, SO far az
possible, the results Of the late election In that
State have come TO A definite end. despatch
originating in one Of the departments was sent
over the country on Wednesday night announc-
ing a terrible state OF affairs in Pike county,
which required the immediate presence Of
United States troops. 1t ia possible that such
disorders may exist, but judging from the re-
ports sent from the same State previous to the
election the probability Is that some trl1ing per-
sonal difficulty has been magnned into a small
rebellion. The people have not forgotten the
exploits OF ANANIAs HAYS and his confeder-
ates In fabricating outrages In Alabama for
effect in the North; nor how suddenly the
alleged violations Of the public peace subsidized
when 1t was found that no further political cap
ital could be made out OF them. Mississippi,
since the last election, In which the AMEs party
was signally defeated. has been exceptionally
quiet but there Ia every indication OF the
speedy issue from tho Washington outrage mill
OF most alarming accounts OF the persecution
OF loyal blacks and whites there. Whenever
their Offices and stealings are In danger the car
pet baggers In the South develop a capacity for
barefaced wing which is truly remarkable.
If the managers of the religious rcvi-
val now under way al Newburgh would
like 10 know how revival ought not
to be managed, they should study the
case Of Port Jeryls, and ascertain the ma
ture and results OF the revival operations that
were recently carried on there. We ourselves

also, We were about To say, Its fruits. But IL
produced very little of that genuine, visible
fruit which Is the natural and necessary produc-
tion OF true religion. Its converts passed

While the Ristori troupe were en-

robbed OF n 20 beautiful solitaire dia-
monds, two of which were sleeve but
tons and three were shirt-studs. The
Jewels disappeared while they were in
sleeping-car, and all efforts to discover
any trace Of them were Intellectual.
The troupe gave them up as lost, and
probably never expected to hear
from them again. Yesterday after
noon detectives O'Neill and stiles, by
some means, the nature of which may
never be known to ye stupid citizens,
obtained information that there was
negro in town who was attempting to
sell some valuable diamonds. They
Immediately LAID themselves on TO
bring. that man down. After much
tramping and watching they collared
him on the corner of Third street and
Washington avenue, and on searching
him found that ho had the diamonds
yet in his possession. The fellow first
explained that he had won the beau
tics while gambling in New York.
THIS stuck in the detectives throats
and refused to go down. He then said
that friend of his in Cheyenne had
given them TO him to pawn here. This
statement wss like wise disbclicved.
He finally ssarted thathe was porter OF
of the car on the Vandalia road in
which the Ristori troupe came to this
city, and that he seized upon an OPP
portunity to make away with the gems.
This seemed more probable, and al
though the detectives had not been
notified of the loss by the troupe, they
accepted the statement as the true one.
While they were taking the fellow,
who by the way is quite intelligent,
down stairs to the calaboosc at the

WILMINGTON. DEL. JUNE >. 1873

1--WE repeat our statement of the fact
the whipping system in this State is
relic of the Slave era. 1t is the public
administration of the plantation pun
ishment. 1t was designed as terror to
free negroes, bat they are beinl crowd
I'd away from the enjoyment of its bsn-
efits by "the proud Caucasian. Com
DlerclaL.
The SLAVE era" points to time so
remote that the Commercial would find
it difficult to fix its commencement.
Whether the whipping system" had
its origin before OF since men were en-
slaved is hardly worth discussing There
seems constant effort in the Radical
papers to undcrrate and defame the
work OF the men who lived during the
elrly history OF our country, and those
who succeeded them down to very re-
cent date. The period which the Com
@serctal designs TO stigmatize as :ths
slave era" may be pointed to as the
proadest in the history Of the United
States. The people who framed what
Is termed the slave code" had no supe-
riors in their day in any country. We
feel confident we express the almost
unanimous opinion Of the white people
of Delaware. (outside Of few Radicals
whom the Commercial represents,) when
we say the men who inspired our laws
were superior in wisdom, while the con-
slant development Of the corrupt prac.
tlces and irregularities" Of Radical off,
cials prove they were far more honest
than the men who represent the party
that seeks to stigmatize them.
The whipping post was no doubt
adopted in the first place as an econom.
ical mode of punishment. We have no
doubt it has been continued in Delaware
IN part because the population Of the
State was too small to afford the expense
attending penitentiary and the elabo-
rate system OF punishment Of the larger
States. But unless there soon comes a
change for the better in the North ern
population we believe we shall see some
OF the States that have abolished whip.
ping resorting to it again. 1t is far
more humane punishment than some OF
the modes adopted in the institutions IN
some of our Northern citiss. The reye-
latlons OF some Of the scenes in soms %

VIII certainly be whipped, and we have
no more compassion for him than for

should SO delight the Commercial to find
there were ten whites whipped at New
Castle to seren negroes. We should not
object to this if the Commercial would
even remind its readers at the same
time that the proportion of the white pop.
niation to the negro is about as eight
TO one, and that several of the whites
who graced the post were from its edi-
tors native State, and come down upon
our people as bummers or vagrants.
The negroes are all Radicals, conse-
