NEWARK, DEL, Nov. %.
The select reading and concert in the oratory
of the College, last Thursday evening, was very
largely attended by an audience who highly ap-
preciated it. This is a repetition of a former
reading by tue came lady. Mrs. Wilmer, Of Balti-
moro. This. as before. was for the benefit Of
Presbyterian church. The vocal and instrument
al music of the very best kind, all giving the
greatest satisfaction.
The Ages second hop on Wednesday even
ing WAS quite success. Quite number of Ia
dies fron the country and New Castle attended.
Mrs. Ellie Richards died very suddenly in your
city, on Thursday last. Her body was brought
here, Saturday evening, to be inferred to-day in
Methodist Church Cemetery. Services will be
held in the church. She was much beloved here
by large number of friends.
Moody and SanlSey are creating almost as
much excitement in this vicinity as the Gen.

been fortunate enough to gain admittanco to

week. We hope he may be more fortunate
than the rest. since writing the above we have

Market Street Bridge,

Yesterday, Mayor Stokey, of Philadelphia, af-
ter a consultation with Colonel Thomas A. Scott,
directed notices to be Issued to the Chief En-
gineer and Surveyor and the members OF the
Survey Committee to meet with the Highway
Committee to-day, when plan and estimates
for the erection of bridge over the Schuylkill
at Market street by the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company will be presented.
Colonel Scott states that he proposes to repair
the old piers, and erect thereon, within thirty
days, a strong, substantial wooden Howe 1'rues
bridge, wider aud better than any bridge that
has ever been there. which will give more room
for street travel, have broader footways, and
which will accommodate both the freight railroad
and the street cars the bridge to be bullt of the
best material, aud capable of being used for
many years, until the city is prepared to erect
sucli permanent structure as should be placed
there. The proposed bridge will cost some
where in the neighborhood of $40 600. Exact
estimates will be furnished to-day. Colonel
Scott further states, his opinion that it IL folly
to think of building at Market ST., in time for the
Centennial, such a permanent structure as
should be placed on the principal business high
way of the city, and the bridge he proposes to
build will accommodate the public for the pres
ent better than they have ever been accommo-
dated and allow time for proper consideration
aud preparation before undertaking tho more
important work.

The gift eeut to one friend might have been
offered with equal propriety to hundred others.
Nov eyery body (worth remembering at all
on Christmas day) has a fancy, or whim, or
association, which trie will recall and eratify.
Now that we have 70 little money, lot us set our
brains to work to remember these whims or hob
bies, and to find the suggestive trifles, and,
our word for it, We will startle our friends
with a more real pleasure than if we had sent
them the costliett uumeaning gift. There must
be nice discrimination, too, III asserting these
triles. There are certain folk whom we know
to be sorely in need of articles for the ward
robe, and to whom we must therefore give
utterly useless follies, because they know that
we know it ; aud there arc other and better
folk in like condition, who will receive collar
or pair OF gloves with as hearty AMI sincere
feeling az though the offering were a'strain OF
Christmas music There ID one cousin whose
gift must smell Of the shops and the dollars

study table, would receive them.with wet eyes.

probable at the PEE ent time that the corieepon-

Government of the United States would be jus
titled in taking any such extreme action. and
there can certainly be discovered no desire on
the part sof the Administration to embroil the
country in needless war with Spain or any other
Government. Almost all that has been printed
on tho subiec has been tho merest speculation,
most of which has been the farthest possible re-
moved from the truth. Whatever the hopes of
especially Interested parties may be in respect
to the unusual naval preparations, it Is safe to
reiterate tho statement that they are wholly pre-
cautionary, and are not made with any intention
of precipitaing hsstlities ei.her directly or in

Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Amertcaa.
wAsnINaToN. Nov 29--It is believed that
both Kerr and Randall will go into the caucus
with about eqnal strength. To secure the nom
uation eighly-eight votes Will be necessary. ii
being a majority OF one hundred and seventy
six of which number the next house boasts IN
simon-pure Democrats. II the South votes for
Randall, and Ills own State delegation
stand by him, he has u good start in
the race. kerrs strength il in the West
Ohio is doubtful. First the delegation will
vote for Milton II. Saylor, and next for tue can
didate who will promise them the best distiibu-
tion of patronage. The New York delegation
will be considerably mixed, for tho reason that
the State has two candidates. When the con-
test narrows down between Randall and Kerr, it
s thought that Cox can carry majority of tile
votes for Kerr Wood, i'll time, will add the re-
mainder to Randalls column. The latest advices
from New Jersey indicate that Kerr has more
favor than Randall 1t is believed that New
England will also support Kerr, likewise Califor-
na Oregon and Nevada
The caucus of the democrats will be held next
Saturday night in tue hall Of the House of Rep
resentatives, but it is probable the result can be
anticipated before that time, as all the State
delegations expected to meet in caucuses of
their own during the coming week.
