From Our Regular Correspondent
r' NEW CASTLE, Sept 21.
At last the needs of Shawtown have
been attended to as far as the cleaning
of the street cutters are concerned.
This much needed piece of work was
done und sr the sole management of City
Councilman Giles Lambson. That he
has at heart the interests of all parts of
our city is evident. -
A day or so ago as Mr.. Frank Reybold
and lady were driving in a carriage.trom
their residence to this city, they were
run into by another carriage containing Z
a Mr.. Hollestor and MIR. Bradway. Mr..
Rey bold and lady were thrown out and
their horse ran away, entirely destroying
the carriage. A man whose name We
unable to find out seeing the horse rum
ming undertook to stop him, and was In
jured to such an extent that his life is
jespaired OF.
Laura Ferris, niece of DR.. Ferris, of
this city, and Miss Anne M. Houseman, !,
daughter of j. M. Houseman, clerk of
the Orphans Court and Register in
Chancery, have passed a very creditabie
examination for admittance to Delaware
College. They have for some time past
been receiving private instructions from
Mr.. A. A. Meadef, late principle OF our
schools, That it was thorough is evil
dent from their standing at the exami-
nation.
Two cases were heard by his Honor,
the Mayor, yesi erday, both for drunkens
ness and disorderly conduct. The usual
fine with costs was the result OF the
hearing. g,
From the number of sale bills. posted
| in the Sheriff's Office, we are led to sup
pose that he is kept busy.
Pearl street near the railroad Is last
| becoming business centre. John Com
eggs proprietor of the new blacksmith
shop, has made arrangements with James
Dougherty TO take charge OF the horse
shoeing department, and the wheel
wrighting will be attended to by Robert
J Martin, Close at hand barber shop
has been opened by young man named
| Williams, who is said to be an expert IN
tho tonsorial art. Here also can be found
an oyster saloon, bear saloon, bakery
and a shoe shop, clustered within ra~
dius of 100 feet. 49,,
Last night we paid visit to the jail
A distressing stiffness prevailed IN every
part, The prisoners sat upon the bencnes
and seats silent, no talking, no Joklng'
no laughter. Every thing seemed aHect-
ed by the coming event OF TO morrow
"Poor Rhodes v' "Poor Rhodes! was
the only audible remark heard during
a short stay.

BABY AND THE ROSE.
BY MRS. NJ. A. KIDDER,

M. A.
A 1ordly man of high degree,
A royal prince Of the blood was he,
With pale stern face and the kingly air
OF a lion reused from his forest lair.
" He hath no heart" said the restless throng,
" He would sell his people for a song;'
- Heaven keep the power from his iron hand,'
We're the cries that rung through the darkened
land.
One day he rode on his noble steed
With his retinue at their utmost speed;
His proud and naughty head thrown back
And his fierce eye fixed on the distant track.
W hat is it moves in the great highway
BY the flowery hedge? It's child at play
A prattling babe mid the blossoms wild,
ALTHOUGH but simple peasants child.
hen she sees the moving prncely band
She stands with rose in her little hand
And holds it up with dove-like coo
To the startled prince with his retinue
And now so near to the horses feet
She still holds on to the poses sweet
One sweep of the strong and princely arm
And the little one is safe from harm
He lays her head on his noble breast
While manly tear drops on his vest,
AS he urges his horse to its speed once more
And he leaves the babe at her mothers door
Oh! GOodly prince of high degree,
A tender heart was found in thee;
And many a household gossip knows
The tale of the baby and the rose

"A Book About the Baby.

BY MRS. S. NJ. &. PIATT.
Now Ii could write such story for you,
What pretty one it would be?
And the prettlest things they would all be true
But can [? All, you shall see.
So, the book about Baby must all be new?
No, not one word of it old?
Well, then-why, the Babys two eyes they are
blue,
And the Baby's one head it is gold.
And the Baby has such red bud of q mouth,
SUCH beautiful bit of nose
And where can you find in the North or the South
Such queer little pigs as his toes?
Oh, the Baby is better than blossoms or birds
:" Or than honey orange?" Yes
And the baby tells tales with the daringest words,
mat mean-what you never can guess!
And the Baby believes he's an angel, no doubt,
And wants to go back TO the sky;
And that is just what all the troubles about,
And that is just why he scW cry!
And the Baby is sweet-from the light on his head
To the d1mples that play in his feet.
Now, my book is all new, for who ever has said,
Before, that-the Baby is sweet?
