MR.. sEKACK r. sHALrCROss BARN BURNED
OBSTRUCTION OF FARMING IMPLE
MENTs.
Special dis,atch to the Herald.
M1DDLETowN, Del, Jan. Is, 1S76.-A
large fire occurred near this place to-day on
the farm of Serach F. Shallcross, Esq,
about two miles from town. All of his out
buildings hut his grannary were destroyed.
His whole stock of implements and hay, ard
one calf and one sheep were in the buildings
and were totally lost.
The fire was caused by some boys who
were shoe ing at pigeons on the building.
Mr.. Shallcross is one of our most exten-
sive farmers on the Peninsula and his peach
orchards ,Eceed in extent those of any 9TH
er grower. His barns and ou' buildings
were y ouablv as extensive and valuable as
any on the Peninsula and the loss will be
very heavy. There is some insurance or
the buildings but just how much is not
known.

SMALL POTATOES,

1t was married man of color, who, on
Saturday morning last put on his bes,
beaver, took his market basket and saun
tered forth to purchase produce for the loved
ones at home. He walked once or twice up
and down King street, endeavoring to as
certain wherein he could purchase the most
for the least amount of money. At last he
stopped before lady vonder, when the fol-
lowing conversation look place. "Is dem
potatoes, Aunty?" said the man. "Yes,
chile, dey is," she answered. "Well, den,
how you sell dem." The price was told;
Henry looked at the potatoes moment as
If deliberating, and then spoke: "But
Auuty, dey's no count taters, no how;
mighty small, dem is," and then he turned
bis nose, repeated something about the
patience and said, " Bless de Lord, Henry,
Almighty handles you in dat way, mark
you am now den my name isn't Sarah !"
He walked away feeling injured and look
ing like a sorrOwing ..' chile"
FIRST LESSONS AT HOUSEKEEPING.
The young people, and the old ones too,
as to that matter, are having good timr
now, laughing at young couple In this
city, who are taking their first lessons in
housekeeping. A few mornings since, the
gentleman arose and sallying forth to the
market house, procured enough victuals to
do q family of ten. At home, the wife
viewed the purchases, twisted her curls up
into gimleS shape, pondering how the mis-
chief she should get about the cooking, and
finally set about the task 10 good earnest.
It was the first time she had ever attempted
to cook anything, and determining to econo-
mize by not hiring servant, was conse-
euent)y her own caterer. The turkey was
brought forth from the basket, and squeezed
into pan about tive sizes too small for it,
and showed into the oven as uncerem0ni-
ously as though voluntary subject OF Gre
nation. From nine until two the noble bird
proud emblem of big Christmas dinners,
stewed and sputtered. and when brought
upon the table looked as though he suffered
great deal, but accomplished nothing 1or
the good of the cause In which ne
was sacrificed. Hush md inserted the fork
and attacked one of the legs wickedly, hut
/. would not surrender, 1t simply elevated q
claw as though pleading for mercy, but he
was not at all merciful, and eudeavored to
decapitate the head All was in vain, and
not uBfil piece Of the breast was torn on
did d happy thought strike the wife. She
smelt something. hesniffed the air. Hus.
b md in turn elevated his proboscis and both
elevated their pro,oscises' together. The
turkey smelt, yes, positively stunk. They
saw it all, the Lord OF the Manor had beer
imp 'scd upon, and seizing that old turkey
by one leg he rushed to the back door anc
twrling IT around his head with the dexteri
tv that An athlete would an Indian club, hi

A Telegraphic dispatch from London
states that the American ship Caravan,
Capt. Waefelaer, left the Waterloo Dock at
this place at O'Clock yesterday, for New
York. She had preceded but few miles
down the river. a. far as New Brighton,
when scene of great violence occurred
aboard.
The Captain States that the crew, who
shipped Just before the departure OF the
ship, were all drunk. As soon as the Cara
van got out into the river, the crew, VINO
had been ordered to duty, become 'insabor-
dinste, and threatened to kill the Captain
as we'll as the officers.
He therefore signalled to the river police,
who promptly boarded the Caravan AND
took two Of the ringleaders into custody
The remainder of the crew were left lying
drunk about the deck. One of the men
was very severely injured during the riot
The Caravan is detained, in order to ship q
