show what a great scarecrow the
wharves have been to the uninitiated,
and prove that the thieves required
nearly $4,000 to build wharf which
can be built for SLIGO, and under Mr..
Burke's proposition would cost $3.50.
The Injunction asked for by Mr..
Michael Carvin comes up on Monday
before the Superior Court, and in the
face of the decision OF the Supreme
Court, it cannot be conceived how Judge
Lynch can order any interference with
the city's right and duty to comply with
the decree which orders that no wharf
duties shall be levied upon vessels land

necessary to keep the wharves In repair

against the city may have awakened q

by their indiscretions and imprudence are
sown the seeds of disease to be reaped in
untimely graves. Outdoor pleasures are
impossible; but those of the home circle
are increased, and the gaiety of the season

was very quiet here. No diplay; no cele-
bration. The most patriotic took advaut-
aye of cheap fare and went to Oxford, to
witness the parade of the warriors and
veterans of ls76-the bloody 9th. who
have braved the bullets and faced the can
non on many blood-staineG fields of battle,
around Oxford and West Chester during
the last year. The day was large one,
presenting great display of Star Spangled
Banners, abundance of good music, full
quota of men, any quantity of Jersey
Lightning,' no Local Option, huge fight
lin which the colored troops fought bravely(,
plenty Of good dinner, few remarks but
no one to make a speech in honor of the
day.
OUR ROADS.
1t is a fact owing to the superior quality
Of our soil over any other part of the
county, that our roads, Immediately around
our borough, are the worst any man ever
rode over. Can't the wisdom of our County
Commissioners devise some plan to improve
about six miles Of road in the 9Th District,
and confer a blessing upon the general pub

BUSINESS
is improving, so say our merchants, and
they look more cheerful, without doubt.
RELIGIOUS SERVICES

sixty converts during the six weeks, and
minister and members almost exhausted,

TEMPERANCE.
In the public hall, on Thursday evening,
a member and minister of the Orthodox
branch of the Friends Church, is to talk to
US on the evils of lntemperance, and show
that all other sources of misery combined
does not accomplish as much as this one
