A Suggestion,

ST. GEORGES HD., Aug. 18th, 1876.
q. P. JOHNSON, SIR:-As the rules
Democratic party provide that the
delegates to the County Convention
to nominate candidates for the Legis,
lature and the Levy Court, shall be
chosen on the Sd Saturday of August
and that the Judges appointed to hold
the election, (who are the same judges
that held the election for Sheriff and
Coroner) shall give notice of the same !;
and as no notice has been given in
this part of the couty, it is suggested
that the County Committee should
request the several Ward hundreds
and election districts. to elect their
delegates, if not done previously to
the County Convention on Saturday
the 26th inst, that being the day on
whicn delegates are to be chosen to
the State Convention and that the
Judges give notice accordingly. AL
though this course is not strictly in
accordance with the rules, it would
likely bring out larger vote, and the
rights CT no one would be prejudiccd
thereby. W.

TIE Bridgerille Fair.

The second annual fair of the Bridge.
vile Agricultural and Mechanical Sos
ciety will be held near Bridgeville,
Sussex county, on the 27th, 28th and
29th of September, where fine co.'s
lection will be on exhibition.
The race course on these grounds
is in splendid order, and there will be
some fine trotting on the Gath of this
month. The following horses are now
in training: The grey horse, Spider
Legs, owned by DIR. Shipley of Sea-
ford, bay mare Lilly, owned by Albert
Curry, of Bridgeville; bay mare Polly
Ann, owned by Justus Lowry, propri-
etor of Milford Hotel, Milford; brown
mare, Nellie r. owned by 8. P. Raw
ley, of Bridgeville; bay mare Nellie
B, owned by j. Fl. Bailey; bay horse
Mack, owned by M. q. Coates, of
Bridgeville; bay mare Annie V. owned
by P. W, Vincent. She is half sister
TO the celebrated trotting mare Pom
gateague. This is fine collection OF
trotters, and the racing will no doubt
be worth witnessing.

Work ON the Reservoir stopped.

Last night the Water Committee
decided to stop work, for the present,
on the Cool Spring Reservoir. The
fund for the reservoir is now reduced
to but little more than $1,000. and it is
deemed advisable to keep this amount
as contingent fund, to pay for a
watchman. and to keep the work al
ready done in necessary repair during
the winter.
About thirty men reported at the
reservoir for work, this morning, but
they seemed to expect that there would
be no work and were not disappointed
at the announcement which met them.
1t is not now probable that any further
work will be done on the reservoir
until next Spring. The work already
done is in such an advanced state that
it is not expected it twill suffer greatly
by the storms of the winter. In the
northern compartment the Clay has
been spread over about two thirds of
the bottom, and covered so as to pro-
tect it from the heat of the sun.

life to the study of subjects of which he
treats in their pages. These books are
published by the Institute, whose adver-

young Of both sexes. ''The Science of
Life, or Self-Preservation," is practi-
cal treatise upon matters deeply concern

young, and has already had a career Of
usefulness and popularity gratifying to
the author. Equally Admirable is the

and published still another, entitled

Amongst the bills which failed to

dollar a full legal tender, and another
authorizing the President 10 appoint
commissioners to attend an information

Senate, however,a few minutes before
adjournment, took up and passed the
House joint resolution providing for
the appointment of a commission to in
