From Our Regular Correspondent.
NEW CASTLE, May 16.
At 9 O'Clock yesterday evening, twenty

from custody. Some had completed their
terms; some had been held as witnesses, and
others the Grand Jlry had failed to Iind

witnesses

1t is well for the tax payers of this county
that the Grand Jury has been discharged,
for had they remained in session another
week it would have been necessary TO have
| convened the Levy Court and increased the
ia K rate IN order that funds be forthcoming
to meet the expense of witnesses summoned
to appear in the liquor cases. 1t is a fact
that (and we use the word fact knowingly }
that from one half to three fourths of those
subpenaed in the above cases knew nothing
about them; this of course is not the fault
OF the Grand Jury, but OF the parties who
are working in the temperance cause
at the expense of the tax payers. We
believe that every person who signed any
petition asking for a licens, was summoned
TO testify This in our mind is intemper.
ance OF the grossest kind TO compel a man
to attend day after day at Court upon the
mere suspicion that he might know some
thing about liquor dealer selling on Sum
day, or TO minors is to use mild term Q

columns that the American Dredging
Cos. dredging machine Baltic is now en-
gagged at work in the Christiana creek.
A reporter of the GAZETTE has thought
sscription would be interesting.
The boats are built stronger than any
other boats on the water, and the
amount of work they perform, and the
great weight they sustain, is surprising.
, The machine does its work effsctuaiiy
and easily The weight of the bucket,
when filed, and the machinery reaches
fourteen tons. The Baltic is 50 feet long,
30 feet broad, 10 feet deep, and has a car
| ing capacity of 800 tons. There are two
engines. each "a inches stroke, and 16 in
ches diameter of the cylinder, which are
required to run the machinery. The
hoisting apparatus consists of spurn
wheel and disc friction gearing, the
best in the market for the purpose. The
chains, two in number which lower and
hoist the bucket. are 100 feet long. The
spades are 20 inches square and 60 feet
long, and weigh between 4t and tons
each. 1t requires 3 anchors weighing on
an average of 1400 pounds each to help
hold the boat in position. The bucket is
attached to asmovable crane 80 feet high
and Is made OF iron and steel in two half
vertical sides and will open and close of
itself. On each side are two dipper poles

Accompanying the dredger are two
