WILMINGTON. Dol. Oct, 4, 1878.
xA1L.l lDl0jWS THE PENINSULA:


Thejqaestion of mail connections down
the Delaware Railroad las attracted much
attention and the same arrangements which
at preeent exists cause much dissatisfaction
Speaking Of the carrying of the Baltimore
mail the Sunof that city, says editorialiy:
"The facts in the cage seem 10, be this
There ale three trains down the Delaware
road. all Of which used 10 connect at Dela-
ware Junction with the 6.45 a. M, the 9.55
am, and the 2.55 p. m. trains going hence
on the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Ball
timore railroad. Of these only one, the
645a. m. train, carries the mail. The
early train On the Delaware road, the only
one carrying the mail leaves the Delaware
Junction just twelve minutes before The
Baltimore train carrying the peninsula
mail is due there, and thus the mail from
the southwark, in default of this simple
connection, has 10 lie over in Wilmi ngton
or at the Junction for twenty -four hours.'
After speaking of the change in the time
table so that the Baltimore mail train baie-
ly misses the GAS train the Sun goes on to
say: '.
at does not make any difference whether
the change which deranges the connection
is the act ofthe Delaware road or Of the
PhiladeI phia, Wilmington and Baltimore.
The Delaware road is leased to and control.
ed by the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore. The acts of the leased road
are the acts the road which controls it..
The president Of the Delaware road is a
director Of the Philadelphia, >Wilmington
and Baltimore: Phe latter road furnishes
its rolling stock to the former, and must he
assumed to be absolutely responsible for it's
timetable. 1t still remains for President
Hlnckley either te restore the interrupted
connection or to give the public some
good reason why it is broken, and the PEN
insula people deprived of the prompt mail
Connection with the chief city of Mary
land and the South which they are vouch-
SIZED with New York and Philadelphia.p
The bad mail arrangements down tie
Peninsula does not exist in the carrying Of
tie Baltimore mail alone but also in many
other instances. For instance letter Sent
from Doverto Philadelphia in the morn,
ing cannot receive an answer until 1886
o'clock the next day. Down many Of
the branch roads the arrangements are
even worse; letter mailed in Chestertown
Md, after $50 o'clock on Monday will not
reach Wilmington till afternoon Tuesday,
and the mail all along the line of the P.

south to Delaware Junction get to Easton

win the House stand Fast ?

The House, on Tuesday, pruned among
the foreign service where 1t ought to have
cut root and branch; but, on the whole, 1t IL
entitled to the credit Of q fair piece OF work.
It reduced the salaries OF Ministers TO Great
Britain. France. Germany. and Russia from
s17,5 each to $4,000 euch those OF Minis
ters to Austria, Spain. Italy, Mexico. Brazil.
Japan, and China from $4,000 to $4,000;
those of Ministers to Chilli and Peru from
$4,000 to 5000. II refused any provision
whatever for Minister'S 10 Belgium and the
Netherlands and also rejected Mr.. EvARTss
request for Charge dAlalres at Athens,
with $4,000 salary, but consented to Con-
sul-Gencral at half that amount. Finally II
made several changes In consular salaries
some upward and some downward. In ac-
cordance with changes In the business done
at the ports
As a whole, therefore, the House must be
credited with applying the principle Of re-
trenchment to the diplomatic service. But
the hardest part Of its task has yet to come.
1t got as far as it now Is last year, and then
backed all the way out TO the starting point,
because the Senate refused TO follow it. 1t
is not difficult TO surmise that the Senate
will again refuse 70 take the path OF econ
omy; will the House, in that case, stand
fast
Let 1t be remembered that the economies
now proposed by the House do not touch
any commercial interests. These latter are
sufficiently cared for under the consular SER
vice, in which no retrenchment, as whole,
has been undertaken. The House has con-
cerncd itself chiefly with those gentlemen
who are paid 1880 or $4,000 for dancing
attendance at foreign courts, for teaching
the foreign idea the delights OF poker, or for
laboring or lounging in foreign libraries
The oceans that separate this country from
others, on either hand, make II needless IL
NEEDLE in their Quarrels, while the protec.
ton Of American residents In foreign lands
and Of American seamen and travellers
there. falls distinctly within consular duties
Foreign resident Ministers. the supertuous
relies OF n bygone day, are peculiarly III
subjects for the pruning knife Of reform.

for railroad corporation TO charge more pro-
portlonately for carrying merchandise a short

The FRS, Notable Speech of the Session

Year before Mast, JAMES G. BLAINE conf
IDENTIFY expected to be- the candidate OF the
Republican party for President. Up to the
minute OF the taking OF the decisive vote In
the Cincinnati Convention, great many
Republicans believed he would be. Even
the inopportune incident Of the MULLIGAN
letters did not shake their hopes
Mr. BLAINE was disappointed in 1876. But
although cast down for the time being he
did not by any means. look upon himself as
politically destroyed Tomorrow is a
new day" says the old proverb,
Yesterday. in the Senate chamber, In the
hearing Of big audience, BLAINE made his
bid for the Republican nomination in 1850.
The Sun does not usually print at full
length the speeches made in Congress, for
the reason that 1t can find more satisiac-
tory and salutary matter, But we print all
OF BLAIsE's speech, and it Is worth notice.
Never before In n long public career, has
BLAINE taken such pains with speech;
never before has he had such cause TO take
pains. Every paragraph, sentence. word,
has been weighed, and he has said in q half
hour what a clumsier speaker would have
taken six hours TO say. He has mingled
provocation with moderation. and has said
enough TO excite the susceptbilities OF the
South without startling the conservatism
Of the North. A less expert politician would
have frantically waved the bloody shirt, but
BLAINE has not done this, knowing q trick
worth two Of it. He has not sought TO en-
list the sympathy OF the North for the bull
dozed negro voters, but has touched at once
the available issue, asking the white people
ofthe Northern States: Are you willing that
the white men Of the Southern States, who
fought against the Union, shall have twice
as much weight in choosing its rulers and
making its laws as you have who fought for
1t 2 Is every vote cast by white man OF
the South 20 count as much rs two votes
cast by white men Of the North? Is the
section beaten in the civil war to be allowed,
by the device Of counting the negro voters
enfranchised on paper, but DISTINGUISHED In
fact, to capture the Government This is
the drift OF BLAINk's language yesterday
BLAINE argues that the charges Of out
rage and fraud in the Southern elections
ought to be investigated. Well, whenever
and wherever such charges are presented
after any election, and sustained by proper
eyidence they should be investigated

THE OTHER SIDE HEARD.
Messrs. Loew, GumbIeton, and Reilly ON the
Charges of the Bar Association.

Sheriff Reilly, County Clerk Gumhleton,
and Register Loew are greatly worked up by
the charges OF maladminlstrnton OF their
Offices made TO the Bar Association on Tuesday
evening. Register Loew denies that the fees
demanded in his Office are what they were when
the investigation OF his Office was begun There
has been reduction in the fees for every kind
Of service. and the reduction is to be persisted
in. The same rate is demanded from all per-
sons. He was unawarept any exactions In his
office. and he would cheeriully remedy any
evils that might be pointed out TO him.
County Clerk Gumbleton thought that the
committee should say what they wished to find
In his offlce before being allowed to investigate
it. No public officer should be asked to permit
persons to prowl around his office collecting
evidence against him. He believed that every
Zee asked in his ONCE was authorized by law

moderate compensation, He himself had made
no money in his office. His personal accounts

lor Quincy said. in conclusion. that II the Bar

Comptroller Kelly admitted that he had de-
clined to allow Messrs. Knox and MacLean Of

his Office. He did not believe that either OF
those gentlemen WAS a taxpayer; IN ms opln-

passed a hundred years ago could not be up-

the practice Of charging extra foes 10 facilitate

against their clients. Mr. Kelly thought that
Gov. Robinson would not act upon the Bar Assoc
cations charges without taking all the circun-
stances INTO cOnslderAllon.

tion, TO say the least Of it, is. mac
