The Buckeye Granger Of last week sums
up an aggregate of nearly 900 members Of
the Patrons Of Husbandry in this county,
and adds: "The Grangers are no longer
classified with Know Nothings, they ara
acknowledged to BET living and an active
power in the land; power which the party
politicians and The business interests, cannot de-
spiss NTH impunity"
The italics are ours. 1t is quite evident
from this that the editor Of the Granger can.
not rise above personal motive. Why,
my dear sir, il the Grangers really have
any designs Of raid on "party politicians
they would knock your occupation, or
trade, higher nor kite.

In his capital speech at tht lccrn,
opening Of Princeton College, HE Pre-
sidont, pr. McCosh, p,ving ~, account
OF his scYen years towaIlship, says
that in that time tl, university has
received 81 30 CoN in the shape of do
nations, Gnd in later part Of the
speech hc drops the enterprising hint
that j! "nccds half q million more L.
carry out its plans. VIC sincerely hope
it may get il, and, considering the
cmincnce of the Doctor. and the undi.
minishCl lustrc OF his professoraic,
we have no doubt hut what it will,
notwithstanding the hardness OF the
times,
DIR. McCosA has evidently ridden the
freest of eleemosynary horses, but lac
is much too able and clear-headed a
man either to let it run away with
him or to ride it to death. The round
$2 100000 of benetactions which we
hope will accrue to the university dur
ing his administration, and by his ef
forts, will be very clever figure to
wind up with, only exceeding his
present requisition by quarter of a
million. This will set the tallest kind
of feather in his respected ecclesias-
tical bonnet, and we should cordially
share the eXultation of Princeton in
seeing ii there World.

Fire, Last Evening.

DESTRUCTION OF THE OIL HOUSE AND BLACK SMITH
SHOTS OF THE wi l& W. R. r..
Last evening, shortly after sixso'clock, q fire
broke out in the oil house of the Wilmington 4
Western R. R. Co., located at the junction in
West Wilmington. There being a couple OF
bales Of waste, besides three barrels Of oil in
the house the flames spread quickly until the
whole OF the building, including the blacksmith
shop, was enveloped. A shifting engine on the
P. W. Il B. r. r. blew continuous alarm which
soon brought the fire engines to the scene, the
foremost amongst them being the Weccacoe, ii
being the nearest to the confagration. The en-
gine house, containing an engine and four pas
senger cars, closely adjoined the burning build
ing, and was already on fire at the nearest cor
ner, when the Weccaooe arrived. Several en-
poyees of the road living in the vicinity arrived
in time to push out the engine and cars, but not
before one Of the latter was somewhat scorched
on one side.
Fortunately there was large pond of water
alongside Of the engine house, which furnish
ed a sufficient supply, and soon the fire was got
under control, but not until the shop and OIL
house was 80 far consumed as to be entirely
useless. Besides the waste and oil already
mentioned. a chest Of carpenters tools, brass
castings, duplicates Of journal boxes, lamps,
blacksmith's bellows, and a collection of all
kinds of necessary railroad tools were consum-
ed.
The origin of the fire is unknown, as there
had been no fire in the building during the day.
The alacrity with which the fire department re-
sponded, and the ease with which cutters, mud
holes and hills were crossed. is but another
proof OF the efficiency Of the Wilmington Fire
Department.
The loss occasioned by the fire is supposed tc
be from $1200 to $1500, which is mostly covered
by an insurance Of $1,000.

VICE PRECEDENT WILSON ABLE TO BIT UP--BEYosD
DANGER. .
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.
When DR.. Baxter called at 1880, this morning,
he found the vice-Presdent sitting up in bed,
being shaved. The progress of his recovery is
shown by the following note by DR.. Baxter to
the President at 10 o'clock, to-day.
"The Vice-Presdent passed very quiet
night, sleeping soundly without the use Of any
narcotics. He says he feels much refreshed,
this morning, and although weak yet in my
opinion he is out Of danger, and will, in week,
be able to go to Massachusetts.

Red Tape, but we come nearer to the truth in
seeing that it has only been lately that the
Cars government realized the immensity Of
the American project. 1t at last got to be seen
in Russia, that she could not afford to be alb
sent. There is lesson in this for people near
or home.
Preparations <re being actively made for the
Moody and Sankey revival meetings, in the
direction OF fitting up the depot building at 18th
and Market and in drilling the large force of
choristers. But I do not see many signs Of
popular interest in the subject. There may
possibly be great awakening but as yet the indi.
cations are not very bright. Church goers and all
alike are concerned in the work here attempted.
