On to New Castle.

The Repabliraa Clubs Foot it to Ne,o
Castle-lSome If then, Prolong their
Stay.
The Republican campaign clubs, Satur-
day night, marched. down to Fourth street
wharf, for the purpose of taking the Stea-
mer, Alice r. Pieston for New Castle,
but when they arrived the boat was not
in sight. A hurried consultation was
held, and it was decided to march over
so the negro band was packed into a
furniture car, and the clubs sneal1ed over
Third street bridge and struck out on the
causeway. Before One-third of the road
to New Castle was travelled numbers fell
out OF line and returned to Wilmington,
but the rest kept on and reached New
Castle about 10 o'clock.
During their stay in New Castle the
clubs, both white and black, INDUCED in
disgraceful orgie, and several of them
became so disorderly that they were AZ
rested and confined in the Jail cells.
No line ofparade was formed for the
| return to Wilmington, and some of the
members of the visiting clubs have not
yet reached home. Others struggled in
at intervals between 3 a. M, and 9 p. m,
yesterday, and one gang stopped along
the road, and building fire dined in
royal style off the forage which they col
lected from various farmelJ.
The reason for the non-appearance OF
the steamer Preston is not satisfactorily
explained, but it is supposed that Capt.
Denny, after agreeing to take the Bird
Guards over, did not care to risk the
safety of his vessel by piling on the "Black
Guards" and Boys in Blue, and so wisely
kept her out of sight.

WHOLESALE BURGLARY.

BuRGLARIoUs RAID IN THE NINTH WARD
FIVE PLACES BROKEN INTO.
Saturday night, at late hour, gang

ness, all situated on the west side of Mar
ket street, between 21st and 22d. The
places were as follows:
Patrick ODonnells Green Tree Hotel,
was entered through the cellar window
under the front parch. The thieves did
not 60 up stairs, but contented them
selves by stealing several gallons of Ii
quor from the cellar.
Chas. MERGERS barber shop was broken
into from the rear, and relieved of six
teen razors, q quantity of soap, shaving
brushes, cups, and other barbering, ma
terials, valued altogether at about $25.
From Joseph Perdue's meat and provi-
sion store the thieves helped themselves
literally to meat, oysters, pies, apples and
cakes. They effected an entrance by pry-
ing open the rear door.
At John Kenney's cigar store the burg
lars effected quiet entrance stole about
1875 or $50 worth of cigars, tobacco, pipes
and smokers materials. Fortunately all
the money was removed from the till by
Mr.. Kenney when he closed the store.
The last place robbed was Thos. Hink-
sons blacksmith shop, where the thieves
helped themselves to some tools and old
material, valued at $40 or S15.
The robberies were well planned and
were executed with such quietness secrecy
and despatch that no alarm was OCCASION
ed, and the losses were not discovered un-
i'll morning. 1t looks as If there was a
band Of organized burglars in this city,
who are determined to conduct operations
on a large scale. If so they certainly
made n brilliant and successful opening.
The police are now working up the burg
laries.

Mr.. Bird said in his speech in George.
town, that he chad no hope or chance OF
election unless by Democratic Votes
Well, we suppose not, and the confession
was honest, hut what reason has Mr.
Bird for expecting Democrats votes. As
between him and James Williams it is
hard for us to imagine what arguments q
man would use to sustain vote against
Williams and in favor of Bird. Mr.. Will
liams is no speaker and it is not probable
that Mr.. Bird will ever set the world
abaze by his eloquence.
Mr.. Williams is man of Legislative
experience, good judgement, true pluck
and is sound Democrat. Mr.. Bird is a
young lawyer, clever, genial fellow, but
without experience, life-loug Republi-
can and has chung to his party in all its
shameful record.
Now, why should and Democrat choose
Mr.. Bird over Mr.. Williams? and what
earthly reason has Mr.. Bird to hope Of
ask for Democratic votes? Answer on the
seventh of November.-,Susser Journal
