THOMAS FRANCIS BAYARD,
Subject to the Decision of the
st. Louis Convention.
STREET MARK ETS.
FOR PRESIDENT Z!

For several weeks the storekeepers OF
Wilmington have been holding series OF
meetings for the protection of their husi-
ness interests from the undermining in
Auences that the street markets have upon
business that completes with them in the
same line Of goods. Those who constitute
the street karket mer, are countrymen,
who offer their produce and ether market
able goods, in any portion of the streets
contiguous to the market houses where
they may by chance, as it were, find stand
ing room. They are here to-day, and
may not be tomorrow; they are compelled
by no law to establish fixed rates, and
species of cut throat prices is carried on
that the man with an established stand or
store, can not compete with and meet all
the expenses Of rent. license and support a
family.
1t is contended by the storekeerers that
these street markets divert the trade from
the stores where it should fow, by reason
of much lower prices than storeke keepcr
could afford to sell for, and this is tire
reason in a great measure that the no.ire Of
the Sheriff is displayed SO numerously in
The city. They are compelled to pay =.
cense, gas bills, house rent; fuel and wa:er
rents, and a certain per centage on all re
ceipts over thousand dollars. while the
street market man is granted license ior
1--WE dollars and sixty cents by the Clerk o
The Court, and this while the State law
names the license AZ fifteen dollars, to peI-
dIers, who shall be itinerant. Another in-
furious effect that the street markets have
had that is very noticeable, is that patron
age has been diverted from two markc,
houses altogether; the one on Front stree,
and that on Twelfth street having been
broken up in this way. What the
storekeepers wish is that the ordinance
giving license to the street market men be
repealed by Council as matter of protec-
tion to those who are compelled to pay all
the taxes required Of citizens in support of
the city. The custom that goes to this
class Of hucksters is all cash, while the
storekeepers are compelled to give credit
and as the law of attachment upon wages
has been repealed, they are guaranteed nc
protection in the credit system. What
credit is given is done at terrible risk,
and the huckster doing a cash BUSINESS is
not subjected to any lisk, thus having a
large advantage over storekeepers, and
those who hold regular market stands.
If the ordinance is repealed, then the
countrymen will be obliged to take per-
manent stand, pay license and taxes, and
become an equal competitor with the others
The plea of the storekeepers is given here
just as they state it, and IS apparently es-
tablished upon grounds, that have every
degree of fairness.

THE candidates for the nomination at
Cincinnati are terribly hedged in by serious
charges, that cannot fail to make impress
sions, and of very serious kind, with
those who will be called upon to confer the
high favor solicited in the Convention. Mr..
Conkling is still impaled upon the hook of
suspicion, and held up writhing with sus-
pense before the country. Mr.. Morton has
only kicked the bottom partially out of the
tub that contains evidence against him. Mr..
Bristow has not entirely recovered from the
terrible kicking those Kentucky mules
gave him, and Mr.. Blaine is now on the
rack before an investigating committee,
which has placed an aspect upon the case
that looks very damaging to the New Eng
land statesman. Perhaps the New York
herald is right, and it will be some "Great
Unknown" that will carry off the prize af-
Ter all.

THE rnIRDPARrY Coxr1nExCE.

The third party which is now holding a
conference in New York, may be sim
cere movement with some, but we do not
regard it as a movement that will have
any potency in the Presidential election.
1t is combination of the same forces that
led the Democratic party into the fatal
errors committed. at Cincinnati when
Greely was nominated. 1t is precisely the
same contingency that we have had to
deal with in certain class of politicians
fot years-a few of the malcontents who
are dissatisfied with the minor positions
they hold in the ranks of the organized
parties striving to get at the head, and
the only way it is to be attained is by the
organization of third party, with a strag-
ling band of followers. There is the
usual cant about reform, which we too
well know is needed, by the way official
position has been corrupted. But party
in the name Of reform cannot bring about
that great boon in government
any more speedily than a
party that has it as cardinal principle
in their platform like the Democratic
party. 1t is the green spots left here and
there in the decay of the Liberal move
ment, which so ingloriously failed four
years ago. As we have said before it is
aparty serving themselves under the cloak
of reform. This is patent to all, who
have not been misled by their seductive
professions of virtue. There are number
of gentlemen in The Conference who it is
claimed are disiaterested. This is done to
distinguish them from gathering of dis
masted Republicans, as the body really is,
being made up of the soreheads eff the Re
publican party. These disinterested gen
tlemen, the New York "Herald' claims
are eminent and venerable in their own
walks of life, hut are babes and sucklinss
in politics. The fight of this year is to be
between the leading parties, and the third
party will be of about as much use in poll
lies as the fifth wheel of coach is to the
|ocomotion of that vehicle.

The Chief-of Police last evening detailed
Detective Crawford to investigate the cause
of the death of William ]. Ward four years
and six months old which took place yester-
day. 1t was ascertained that the mother
went to early church on Sunday, leaving the
father and children at home. During the
absence Of Mrs. Ward, the father, who had
flask of whisky, gave them, he says, a
small quantity of it, and in his absence they
got the flask and drank all the liquor. On
the return of the mother she found the chill
dren stupeied from the whisky and two ply
sicians were called in. They exerted them
selves to save the children, but William was
too far gone, and he died at quarter to
O'Clock yesterday. The daughter, Mary, six
years and six months old, was very low last
evening, and her recovery was considered
doubtful. The father, on the supposition
that he had given the liquor to the children,
was arrested yesterday, and held to await
the action of the Coroner.

derer.
From the Manchester Courier.
Mr.. Parkinson, of Preston, England,
has been ofiereI e200 for the dog "Mor-
gan" that discovered the evidence
a.,.inst Fish, the murderer of the little
gll Emily Blackburn, but he thinks that
Taylor, to whom is due the idea of using
the animal in that way. should have the
benefit, if any, that may be derived from
the discovery. He has, therefore, refused
the offer; but he has proposed to Taylor
to give him cps week and his expenses
to show the dog for month, and prob
ably Taylor will accept
The dog was purchased by Mr.. Par
kinson from George Spencer, formerly
game keeper at Brockholes, near Pres
ton, who, yesterday gave our correspon-
dent some wonderful instances of the
dogs almost incredible sagacity. Spencer
lived in cottage by himself, on the
Brockholes estote, and the dog would
fetch the milk in the morning, for his
own and his masters breakfast, from q
distant farmhouse.
On one occasion when he returned with
the milk, his master saw that he had been
badly used by dog at the farm, while he
had the kit in his mouth, and, as he used
to talk to the animal as if he were II
human companion, he said to him, "Well,
thou must go to Rawcliff's Tor milk to-
morrow" and sure enough the dog did
so next morning, without further hint,
trotting of to Rawclifi's with his kit and
money ut the usual time.
On another occasion. when Spencer re-
turned home at 4 o'clock in the MORN
ing after going his rounds, he found that
his cottage had been entered, ana two
ferrets, thirty nets some rabbits, and u
spade had been stolen. Morgan tracked
the thieves through many devious ways,
and even across the ford below Red Scar,
until he found them in cottage in Black
burn, where the whole of the property
was recovered. The thieves were two
notorious poachers, who before noon
on the same day were sentenced
by the Blackburn magistrates to three
months imprisonment, with hard labor.
Mr. Parkinson, since he bought him,
has spent many hours on his "education,"
and among other things he can do such
errands as fetching letters from the post
office, or taking letters thereto. be will
even fetch postoflice order, taking with
him the money and instructions, folded
up together, on receiving the command:

Dytn I'm Rome and Paris.

ParlS Letter.
The season in Rome must have been a
peculiarly sckly one. Scarcely week
passes that one does no. learn the name
of some unhappy traveller that has died
of the Roman fever, either in the Eter-
nal City itself, or on the road to healthier
chimes. Very often the sufferer reaches
Paris, only TO perish there of his ins'dlous
and terrible msladv. Several such cases
have taken place within the past few
weeks. One of the saddest instances
was that of a young married
couple, who came abroad some
three months ago and who after
prolonged soiourn in Rome, returned to
Paris. The wife fell i'll first, and her
husband followed in few days. In
week or two the poor lady died, and the
gentleman survived her but short time.
As usual, the hotel-keepers behaved with
the utmost brutality, sending the two
invahds out of the house as soon as the
malsdy declared itself, though 1t Is not
ut all of an infectious character. Their
French doctor brought in bill OF $50
tor some half dozen visits. Dying IN
Paris is about rs expensive form Oh
amusement a. one can indulge in abroad.
If your hotel-keeper does not turn you,
neck and heels into the street, as soon as
YOU betray any inclination that way,
YOUR heirs will be called upon to pay
pretty sum for the so called damages
done to the apartments. You may topple
over in fit of apoplexy, or die in min
ute of the rupture of an sneurism-none
the less will you be held to have spoiled
all the furniture, the carpets, etc, and
your estate must pay roundly for it. The
usual charge is from $500 to $500
though the indignant protests OF the
United States officials have in some In.
stances procured slight reduction. And
this. too, in the face of the fact that the
shabby old furniture could be replaced
for 500 at the very outside.
