Delaware River shad Items.

1t is now settled beyond doubt that
the first shad taken thisseason from the
Delaware was caught by MI. Upperman,
an old fisherman, in Salem Cove, opposite
Fort Delaware. Last season, in the early
part of March, many hundreds, were net
ted in the lower Delaware and brought
to this city. This fish, however, is the
most sensitive that swim, and will not
ascend the river until the water is in a
proper condition. It has great dislike
to the water produced by the melting
snow on the mountains along the upper
Delaware and fishermen say that during
the migration upward, if the water is
much impregnated with that of the melt
ed snow, the schools will return to the
Bay until the Objectionable water has
passed away. When ascending the river
the fish is said to be very rapid in its
movements, and it is asserted that large
school on one occasion passed from the
Delaware breakwater to the vicinity of
Trenton, distance ofone hundred and
twenty-five miles, in twelve hours.-Sa-

A Man Killed i'm Sight Of His Wife
and Child

f. Wednesday afternoon, Mr.. Joseph
Wilson, of West Chester, we'll known
lawyer there. was about leaving for
home in train from Thirty-first and
Market streets, with his wife and
daughter, who were on the train, when
desiring something ere the train star
ted, he got up and went to the waiting
room. The whistle blew, and the
cars started. Mr.. Wilson started after
and attempted to get on car, but his
foot slipped. The conductor seized
him, but lost his hold, Mr.. Wilson be-
ing very heavy, and the unfortunate
man fell under the wheels which
passed over him. and instantly killed
him. Thewife and daughter, seeing
the confusion, came out on the plat
form, and were horrifed to see the
dead body of the husband and father
dragged out from ander the wheels as
the train stopped. Both tainted on
the spot. The body was sent home
last night.

RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

The railroad accident briefly noticed
in yesterdays GAZETTE as having occur
red on the Kent county railroad, should
have been on the Queen Anne's railroad.
The accident occurred to the passenger
train north, on Wednesday afternoon,
and was caused by the engine striking a
horse on the bridge just north of Centre
vile, instantly killing it, and throwing
the locomotive from the track into the
ditch below, which contained about eight
feet of water.
A wreck train left the city yesterday
for the purpose of getting the engine up,
but after laboring all day the train return
ed tolthis city and starteddown again this
morning.
No one was hurt with the exception OF
the engineer, who had his right hand
slightly scalded.
ACCIDENT THIS MORNING.
The Delaware freight train south,
leaving this city at o'clock, A. NJ, met
with an accident just north of Delaware
Junction, by which the train was delayed
six hours.
The accident was caused by two cars
jumping the track and falling down the
embankment. The cause of the cars
leaving the track is not known, but it is
thought it was caused by the breaking OF
an axle. No one was hurt

BED Bues IN THE CouNc11, CHAM

BED BUGS IN THE COUNCIL CHAM
BER.-In the City Council chamber, last
evening, while the reporters were sharpen
ing their pencils, preparatory to cemmen-
cling work, a wandering bed bug was OBJ
served sedately crawling across one ofthe
desks. The beast was promptly decapi-
tated by well directed blow from pen
knife, but during the entire session the
press representatives Writhed in horrible
dread of further visits from the disgusting
vermin. The bed-bugs, and also lice,
found their way into the Council cham
ber from the lodger's room below, and re.
Gently they became so numerous that it
was found necessary to cleanse and COM
pletely renovate the chamber. But eve
ry one knows how hard is the work OF
determination, and it will probably be
some time before our City Fathers can
hold their weekly deliberations without
receiving occasional visits from struggling
vermin.

ENTHUSIASM IN SOUTH CAROLINA
GRAND RECEPTION AWAIT
ING HAMPTON. -

CHARLESTON, s. c., April 5.-Accounts
from Columbia tonight say that
the demonstration of welcome to Gov.
Hampton on his return tomorrow
will be something Unique both in
number and enthusiasm. The rail-
roads are carrying passengers to the
capital at half fare, and visiting delega-
tions lof citizens from all parts of the
State will swell the throng. Business
will be suspended, and the day will be
given up to public rejoicing. Sinister
hints are uttered by some of the carpet
baggers that they will contrive a disturb
ance in which many colored men will be
killed, but amid the popular elation lit
tie heed is paid to such vaporing.
The OBJECT of Hampton's triumph is
already feltihere ina business way. Pres
ident Simonds, of the First National
Bank; George W. Williams, VIM. B. Smith
F. s. Pelzer and other leading capital
lists agree in saying that relief has come
in the nick of time, especially for the
rice interests of the seaborj, which was
in imminent danger of annihilation on
account Of the prevailing uncertainty.
The market for local real estate percept-
IDLY stiHened, and State bends, which a
week ago had risen from so to 63 on the
strength of the prospect of pacification
are to-day quoted at 69a70, with none Of

ANTON HENzE's CLOSING MAsQUER-
ADE.-SaVille's building, last night was
the center point Of attraction, a large, and
enthusiastic number of our citizens hav-
ing assembled to bid adiue to the only
sovereign recognized'in this country
Prince Carnival, who with Cardinal,
Woolsey, might exclaim "Alas alas Fare
well long farewell to all my greatness

popularity of our esteemed citizen A.
Henze.
- In the motley throng we noticed many
superb costumes from the emporium Of
Mrs. Henze, prominent among which was
"Lady Washington" equalled in splen-
dor by the brave "Indian Princess, Po-
chahontis," an exquisite "Polish Lady,
and handsome "Shepardess." But it is
in vain to attempt description of the
ever-changing scene, in which the grave
and sober were intermingled with the
light and joyous, which formed living
kaleidoscope of the most brilliant hues
The guests fingered until early morn
ing, when they left with the hope oi
soon meeting again.
The daily gazette., 1877-04-06

In the subject of this brief sketch few
people will fail to recognize the pretty,
vlvacious young woman, who, with her
handsome face, sparkling eyes and at
tractlve manner was, until recently, the
IDOL OF her family and the pride of many
friends. ''-.1
During her childhood she was reared
amid the influences of an attractive, re-
lined home circle, and as she grew to-
wards womanhood she was constantly
surrounded, by precept and example,
with all that could tend to keep her
footsteps in the path of virtue, and her
life free from the sins of the world.
But pretty form and blonde COM
plexion, combined with an attractive
bearing and fine conversational powers,
soon drew scores of admirers to her side,
but no thought Of suspicion was ever
Dreathed against her character, and until
very recently no stain of reproach was
cast against her hitherto fair name. Yet
the tempter approached, and if rumor
speaks correctly, he approached in the
shape OF man who had already taken
upon himself the VOWS of matrimony,
and whose dissolute character readily
enabled him to stifle all feelings of honor
for himself and regard for the fair girl
whose ruin he successfully accomplished.
The sold, old story" soon unfolded
itself. Detection was speedy, and when
the guilty truth could no longer be con-
cealed, the frail creature, disregardine
the pity and sympathy of her still loving
friends, plunged deeper and deeper into
the life of infamy and reproach, Daily
her conduct grew more bold and defiant
while her circle of guilty admirers in.
creased in extent. Rapidly losing ali
Feelings OF personal regard or sense oi
shame she fed from the home circle
where virtue and contentment existed in
painful contrast to her depraved nature
and now, with few kindred spirits, this
once bright, beautiful and virtuous young
} woman is keeping house of ill-fame in
The western part of the city.
I. Such is the briefly told tale, which i:
an every day occurrence in the larger
cities, but which the citizens of Whining
ton do not frequently have their attention
directed to. 1t is a sad recital, and while
. friendly hearts will deeply sympathizt
with the afflicted family, whose bereaye.
ment is far greater than if death had en-
tered their portals and taken the onct
loved one in all the purity of her fresl
young life; they will also join in exc
Grating the horrid actors who claim res
pectability while they assisted to bligh
her young hopes and blasted her charac
ter forever in the eyes of the world.
How terrible must be the feelings Q
the seducer. In many of the States tn
, crime is made penitentiary offence, an,
, it should be in Delaware. How woul
:. these foul and wicked wretches like t
e have their own children debauched or Sc
/ their sisters thus led to ruin. 1t is i'm
= possible for these men to escape the eye
g Of the community. The day is past whe
: the responsibility of such an offence to
r community will be looked over in s
Z lence, or in which the punishment an
a shame will rest only on the weaker an
g . Trailer party to the scandal. How teri
. BILE is this warning to the young an
4 thoughtless.
