The Paradise of Tears.

Beside the River of Tears. with branches low,
And bitter leaves, the weeping willows grow;
The hranchc, stream like the disheveleG hair
OfWomcn in the sadness of despair.
On rolls the stream with perpetual sigh;
The rocks moan wildly rs it passes by;
livs~op and NORWOOD border all the strand
And not Il flower ad0rns the dreary land
Then comes a child, whose face is like the sun.
And dip, the gloomy waters rs they run,
And waters all the region. and behold,
The ground is bright With blossoms manifold.
Where fall the tears of love the rose appears.
And where the ground is bright with friend
ships tears,
Forget-menot> and yioletS, heavenly blue,
spring, glittering With the cheerful drops like
dew.
The souls ofmourners. all whose tears are dried,
Like swans. come gently floating down the tide,
Walk up the golden sands by which it flows,
And in that Paradise Of Tears repoSe.
There every heart reions its kindred heart;
There. in Il long embrace that none may part,
FutlmeEt meets desire; and that fair shore
BehOids lis dWeller> happy eyermore.

A gentleman deposited package in the
safe Of u Saratoga hotel, and asked for a
check for it. The clerk gave him cheek
which he himself invented and mt in
vogue at Saratoga fifteen years ago. Has
thy writing the gentleman's name on 4
square OF paper, the clerk hastily tore it
in two. He gave the gentleman one part
and pinned the other part to the package
This was the check, and an unlorgeablc
one it is. For observe: often as you may
do this thing, to duplicate it is impossible.
You might succeed, perhaps, though with
extreme difficulty, in making an exact re-
production OF your own writing; but to
tear apart two pieces OF paper in the same
way SO that a fragment of one will fit a
fragment OF another is something you can't
do.

Hay and Hay Prices.

QUOTATIONS IN WILMINGTON MARKET-RIsE IN
BOTH LOOSE AND BALED- A LARGE AMOUNT OF
OLD HAY ON HAND.
The prospect of short grass crop makes peo-
pie consider the hay question. Last season was
very favorable one for grass, and considerably
more than an average crop was saved, much Of
which has not yet been brought into the market,
and which has now prevented hay from rising to
very highprices. AS it is loose hay las risen from
s14 to SIT per ton in this market, ana baled hay
from SIG to $40 and some even as high as
$40 per ton. In conversation with several hay
dealers, we were informed that there was really
no scarcity of hay among the farmers, but that
they were now keeping it back with the expecta-
tion of receiving higher prices Should this be the
case,it would not be very surprising if hay would
rise above present quotations. There is yet time,
should rain fall soon, to partially recruit the hay
crop, but it is thought not likely that enough
grass can now be raised to keep the price below
800 per ton for baled hay, in this market.
Since tho above was written wo have had
this mornings rain. This will do great good to
all the growing crops, though it has not been
copious enough to materially affect the streams
and springs. We may hope however, for more
of the same sort, which may yet give us a fair
grass croD.

The Delaware Co. Homicide.

PARTICULARS OF THE sTABBING AT HAvERFoRD, ON
FBIDAy-A BAD AFFAIR.
The fact that a man named James Fletcher
had been fatally stabbed by peddler, at Haver-
ford, Delaware county, on Friday, was reported
Ne,os gives these particulars
Fletcher was employed on the farm OF Mr..
Leedom, in Haverford, and part of his duties
consisted in delivering milk to customers in
Philadelphia. The deceased had returned from
trip shortly before two O'Clock on the day
mentioned above, somewhat under the influence
OF liquor His condition was noticed by his
wife. In few minutes Mrs. Fletcher noticed a
peddler about to enter the yard. Starting toward
the man, she motioned to him with her hand
to warn him against entering, but he dis
regarded her sign. AT that instant her husband
appeared and said to the stranger, co We don't
want peddlers here; don't come in" The man
replied that he would come in and passed
through the gate. Fletcher then took hold of
the intruder to eject him when the two begsn
tussling. They fell to the ground and Fletcher
Staggering to his feet he walked about three
PAGES calling to his little son James, lad seven
and half years old, to "come and see his
father die" He then dropped dead.
The pedder fled but was pursued and captured
at Darby and taken to Media. James Smith.
Justice of the Peace, in Haverford, acting as
coroner, summoned jury and held an inquest,
at which the Testimony OF Mrs. Fletcher, the
boy James and DIR. John w. Eckfeldu, the latter
of whom made post mortem examination, was
taken, and verdict in accordance with the above
facts was rendered The pedlar, whose name is
Charles McDevitt, is now in jail at Media await
ing trial. The instrument with which the stab
was inflicted was not found and Mrs. Fletcher

Political Notes.

IL is said that the Democratic nomination fol-
the Governorship, in Pennsylvania, is narrowing
down to Colonel Noyes of Clinton; r. L. Mon
aghaD Esq, of Chester Judge Turnkey, of
venango, and Hon. A. II. Dill, of Union. At
the present time the nomination rests between
these four gentlemen.
Itis not necessary to inquire into the motives
Of Gov. Weston and his associates. Their ac-
ton speaks for itself. 1t is worse than crime
1t s a bunder-a particularly ill-timed and stu
pid bunder at that-which the New Hampshire
Democrats and the party at large will be very
sorry for presently. That party is not in posi-
ton at present to play tricks with the laws or
upon the people. -Sprtngfeld Republican,
Judge Aphonso Taft will in all probability be
the Republican candidate for Governor in Ohio
this Fall Tho party journals which were OPP
posed to him are one by one giving in their ad-
heaion, and there arc now none of much in
iluence which are not in his favor. The Cncn-
natl Commercial says Judge Taft is man of
high character and real force. His nomination
would liberalze, enlarge and enlighten the Re-
publican party Nominate him and he will poll
the strength of tho party. Nominate him and
h6 will n)t only carry Hamilton county, but
tho Western Reserve also by tho the old Repub-
can majority.
Even some of the Democratic papers are
forced to admit the inquity of the course pur-
sued by Gov. Weston and his Council, in New
Hampshire. The Buffalo Courier thinks they
have made grave mistake, and that their con-
duct from the mere point OF view OF party policy
seems in the last degree indefensible and DANA

The Railroad Strategy.

WILMINGTON READING, AND BALTIC, pHILA., AND
NEW YoRK-CAR sHoPs AT OXFORD sold.
As there would bo nothing gained by one
bankrupt company disposing of a road in running
order to a bankrupt company without any road
at all, we infer that the Baltimore, Philadelphia
and New Park Company has fallen into new
hands, and that their title is simply being used
as cloak to cover present operations The real
parties are doubtless the Philadelp lphia and Read.
ing, and Baltimore and Ohio Companies-and
whose ultimate object is the construction of a
road from Baltimore to New York. AS further
evidence that some movement of this kind s
on foot, we mention the fact that the
railroad shops at Oxford have been
disposed of to parties whose names, in
the language of the distinguished Lord Dun
dreary " no fellow can find t." The citizens
of our neghboring Borough are quite rejoced
over what they regard AZ "future probabilities"
and we think not without just cause. Tho idea
suggested by us some weeks since of the Balt-
more and Ohio Company using the Wilmington
and Reading Railroad as means of transport
ing Western freight to New York until the new
route is completed,is is embraced within the limits
of the scheme.
By building a road from Baltimore to point
on the Chester Valley road rs suggested,
through route to New York, independent of the
Pennsylvania line, could be secured III less than

The only by Laws which led to a discussion
was tho one providing for scholars to pay a GER
tain amount every quarter for the use of Books,

The proposition led to a prolonged and ANNA
ted discussion, in which most of the members

ments were ordered to be sold to the best advan
tage.
On motion of Mr.. Buck, Messrs. Buck, Zeb-
ley, and Baird were appointed a committee to
procure the Opera House for tho use Of No. !
school at the opening of the next school year.
Mr.. Woolley reported that the committee for
that purpose had settled with the State Auditor
and the accounts were found to be correct. Tho
report was accepted.
The pay role amounting to 54231,3 ,35 was re-
ceived and referred to the Committee on Ac-
counts An order for $50 was drawn for Mrs.
Elliott, and the Board adjourned.
