rAhMEh'S VIEW OF TILE DIS
PJTED SUBJECT.
For the GAZETTE
ST. GEORGES HD., Dec. 0, 1875.
To the Editor of the Gazette Being
In your city on Friday TO attend the
market, my attention was attracted by
the Wilmington "Shinners. In every
alley wherever one could put his
head, you would see him trying to
sell meat, but an honest hard working
farmer must not offer to sell meat; SO
say your butchers. But they are anx-
ious to mix themselves in with the
far Imers whenever an opportunity /,
offered. Are the people of Whining
ton and also the people of New Castle
county going to allow about $50 butch
ers rule, and say what shall be brought
to market for the wants of the peoples
If we are to be ruled and told what
we shall bring to market, J suppose in
a little while these would-be despots
will tell us what We shall raise. IF .
farmer has not the right to bring to
market meat OF his own raising, he al
so has no right to bring poultry, but.
ter, eggs and vegetables. Better stop
them altogether as they have become
common nuisance. Ask your mer-
chants if they want the street market
broken up. think they will answer
no; they will say the market people
leave too much money here to drive
them out. The butchers have carried
this meat business to q very high point,
and it is no uncommon thing TO arrest
the farmer, and fine him $40 for
breaking a City Ordinance. To the
surprise OF the Justices of the Peace,
some Of our farmers would not pay
the fine and have taken their suits to
New Castle; to be tried by q jury, (by
the way wish it could be all farmers)
and see if they can't have justice
| meted out to them. Why should the
butchers OF the city of Wilmington,
have any more rights than any other
butchers in the State. They pay no
more revenue, nor half as much as
some of our farmers do. suppose it is
because they are in the city Of VIII
mington and get City Council to act in
their behalf. Wonder if we country
folks had not better get Council to help
us also. The laws of our State do not
forbid uskilling meat and exposing the
same for sale. They do not say We
shall not take it to Wilmington, and
that the city of Wilmington has char
ter to enact any such laws. This State
is supposed to be a 1rec one, but some
few would like to rule it. Meanwhile
there are others who would like 10
live. FARMER

Cor. GrOome'S Decision.
THE ATTORNEY GENERALsHIP

Special di.patch TO the Evening News

Mr.. CIV uinn'S Commission WItheld-A
Case to he Decided by the Courts.
Special d:patch TO the Evening News
ANNAPOLIS, Md, Dec. G.
1t was nearly one o'clock before
Governor Groome delivered his decis.
ion in the Attorney Generalship case.
At that time some score of persons had
gathered in the Executive Chamber,
among them being Mr. Gwinn, A. B.
Hagner, and r. r. Morrison.
ilThe Governor read his opi n ION, in
which he announced that by the re-
turns Gwinn was elected, and he de.
cided he was duly qualified as the at
torney general, but that lie would
refuse to give a commission OF cleo
tion to him, thus requiring Mr.. Gwinn
to 60 to the courts to compel the Gov
ernor to issue 10 him his commission,
which would bring up the question
whether the Governor had right to
go behind the returns and take evil
dence TO decide who was duly elected,
or whether his duty was merely minis
terial ia issuing he commission
The Governor also read supplement
tai statement in which he gave notice
that if Mr.. Gwinu did not proceed at
an early date with judicial measures
he would himself commence an inves-
tigation into the facts alleged by Mr..
Wallis.
The Governor said that the matter
must go 70 the Courts without any
technicalities, and they would decide
what class of evidence he could take.
He would have to be represented by
counsel, and he appointed Mr.. Hagner.
AIR. Gwinn wanted to know what
was reasonable time, and agreed as
soon as he could consult with his
counsel, Messrs. Steele, heblitzell and
Marshall, that he would proceed.
The Governor agreed to wait five
days, but hoped 1t would be sooner.
Mr. Hagner desired to call the Cover.
nor's attention to the word decide
in regard to the election Of Mr.. Gwinn.
He thought that it ought to be de
clare Mr.. Gwinn objected, stating
that he was entitled to some rights.
Mr.. Hsgner answered that no one OBJ
iected to his rights. The Governor
declined to alter the VOID and thought
the courts would not take IT as per
emptory decision.

THs UsEFCL AND THE BEAUTIFUL
Our republican simplicity, we are told
will be illustrated at Washington this
winter by Representative Jones oil

ocrat. and what patriot, we may ask,
by the name of Jones, is net a demo-
crat. The New York Post says that
he has rented an elegant house in
Washington, and takes with him five
horses, one pair of which cost him$3,

AN rNPATRIoTlc PARAGRAPH.

The Philadelphia Bulletin has this
statement:
IAN Indiana paper, alluding to the
death of a man who designed the
great seal of that State, remarks that
any man who would try 10 make peo
pie believe full grown buffalo bull
would deliberately rush up TO gran
ger who was chopping down tree st
sunrise ought to die. But the State
seal of Indiana is not by any means
the most remarkable of the devices
employed for that purpose. Georgia
offers something still more astonishing
in q picture of an absurd summer
house supported by three pillars, and
guarded by a Continental soldier with
a weak leg; and Kentucky actually
presents figure OF Gen. Washington
in the act of holding up an intoxicated
friend in order to keep him from fall

after that. Rossiter found another
contrivance which worked better.
The alarum clock struck q match
which lighted the lamp which boiled
the water for Rossiter's shaving. If
Rossiter stayed in bed too long, the
water boiled over upon his razor and

all other precious things he could put
in basin underneath when he went
to bed; SO he had to get up before that
