Council to provide for new City Prison, and l
have understood the new or proposed prison is
to be by an addition to the old forlorn City HALL

posed to anything being added to this old sirue-
ture but, am o strong advocate for new pris.

would like to see scmetng good
for the money spent Why not
erect 4 new handsome building on the city lot
facing on King street in the rear Of the present
City Hail. and upon that good terrace, and make
it for the "Police business and Mayors Court
exclusively?
Such one would be an improvement and All
honor to otIr city, and think money we'll spent.
believe il Council would reconsider their for
mer action and place good and substantial
building (aud such one can be built for S2O'-
900 to S25 900. at the most,) upon the men

PLIoANTs FOR TWO PLAcEs--oENEnAL ITEMS.
Specia, to HE Commercial
DOVER, DEL, Jan. %.
The third week OF the session has closed and
very little 30 far, has been accomplished. Yes
teriay, in the Senate, little breeze sprang up
on the resolution Of Mr.. Riddle to instruct the
State Treasurer to invest the surplus funds Of
the State in
UNITED STATES DoSDe.
1t appears that there is frequently $4,000
and upwards in the State Treasury, for which
there Is no immediate use, and the bonds
of the State being at par, those holding them
have no desire to have them redeemed. Mr..
Riddle thought that so large an amount Of mon
ey should not lie idle, hence his resolution. Dir.
Ray attacked the resolution, quite vehemently.
saying that ~, soon rs specie payments were re.
sumed, the bonds of the United States would
depreciate in value. He thought there was no
better security than our own bonds, and pro-
vision should be made TO insert in Delaware
State Securities. The election for State
TREAsURER AND AUDITOR,
will take place on Tuesday next aud caucus TO
nominate candidates will be held on Monday
evening. There large number Of candi-
dates but Of course only one to each office can
be elected Ebe Walter and Thomas Childs OF
Sussex, and John D. Burton and John
didates for State Treasurer. For State Audi
tor there arc known to be ten candidates The
following are those who have been here push

than Pratt, ]. ID. Coverdale. j. s. TAYLOR, John
W. Sharp Sussex, james H. Boyce, Lemuel W.
NAPLES, and William Walker Who the snc-
cessful candidates will be is hard to tell but we
did hear whisper that the Governor, being so
partial to New CASTLE county the chances OF the
applications from that county would be wea-
kened
GATHERED CRUMBS.
The bill in the Senate to regulate incorporated
companies under the amended Constitution, will
be put on its passage al soon as another Senator
will take his seat. It tales three fourths OF the
Senate to pass it, Two are now detained on
account of sickness.

chairman, is authorized to employ counsel and
clerk.
The bill to repeal the attachment law ia grow
ing in favor in the House.. Only two more votes
are wanted to make it law over the whole
State.
Application will soon beinade for another ho-
tel charter at Rehoboth. In case of plenty OF
ootel accommodations, the ''Old Dominion
Line" will build branch railroad from Loves
to Rehoboth.
The bill to incorporate Keokuk Tribe Imp o.
