MORE BLACK WATER PUMPED
INTO THE BRANDYWlNE.

On M onday last the water in the Bran
dywine was very black with something
that had been let into 1t at some point
above, and strange to say the pumps
were running and pumping IL into the
reservoir. There is no necessity for the
pumps to be running when the water is
discolored, for we have ample hastn ca
pacity now. There must be some mis-
management at the pumps. It wsuld be
well for the Committee on Impurities in
the Brandywine to see the engineer and
tell him thissthiug must be attended to
better in the future. The citizens who
pay their water tax want clean water,
not a mixture of drugs or dye stuffs OF
any kind. We hope the proper prisons
connected with TIE Board OF Health VIII
see to it; and tind out where the black
stuff comes from, and punish the parties
for running it into the creek. We were
in hopes that we had got nd OF this pol
sonois refuse some time ago; but 1t has
broken out afresh again. The Board OF
Health is too len,ent with these parties
who make the Brandy wine a common
carrier for them TO take away their NTH
and refuse of every description that they
have on hand. We want it all stopped!

New CASTLE. ,Iulv "a

NEW CASTLE, July "a, 1873.
The steamship Golden Grove was releas-
ed and steamed down the river about
3:2O p. M, yesterday.
City Tax Collector Hunter is meeting
with fine success in his collections.
The new gas holder has been painted
and the debris which has encumbered
the yard of the gas works cl-ared away.
ana the fences and out building white
washed. This gives the works a very
neat appearance.
There are said to be two other lines of
telephones in contemplation.
VIM. Rudolph, is having dwelling
hause erected on Sixth street near Har-
mory. The cellars and brick work are
being done by Duffy & Bryson; the wood
work by II. Jemison.
A petition is being circulated asking
city council to pave Union, Vine and
Harmony street,. Before beginning any
new work 1t would be well to put that
which we have in moderately passable
order.
Our fire engine is still out of order and
there are only 900 feet of serviceable
hose. In case of Il fire this would be a
bad state of affairs.
A lamp post was erected at the corner
OF Nlnth streetan iFrenchtown turn d ku
and why an oil lamp has not been
furnished is set down as one of those
things which no fellow can lind out.
The store and dwelling house of l..
Callahan is now ready FIR the roof.
Messrs. Ryan * Baymore the con- rae
tors have built for theinselVe. q lasting
monument of their skill in brick layins.
The curb along Vine street, below
Delaware is being reset and cutters laid
adding greatly to the appearance of the
street.
The cutters along Delaware street
above Union are TO use a mild term q
standing nuisance, a hot bed of stencil
and disgrace to our city.
1t seems like waste of light TO burn
gas in the lamp on Water street above
Packet Alley. 1t should be moved to the
corner of the alley where it would do
some good.
In its present position it is entirely hid
den by the trees. DobbiDsville is sadly
in need of, at least, four lamps and Sew
enth street which leads to it should be
lighted. There are 40 or 90 families Ii wing
there and they are certainly entitled to
light.

Foundry Flames.

After having slumbered for some time
the foundry flames burst forth again last
evening. The au iienc- present number
ing about 800 persons, were drawn there
no doubt by the announcement that Rev.
j. b. Mann ,and Geo. M. Dul cher, would
be present and address the m-eting.
Rev. j. b. Mann was the first speaker
and during his discourse he gave the rum
traffic complete overhauling, denounc-
ing it in every bitter terms. In closing
he referred to some of the democratic
candidates for Mayor, in very uncompli-
mentary terms. Mr.. butcher followed
in one of his characteristic addresses.
The meeting was closed by a few remarks
from Mr.. Wells, and the doxology.

while the trader Hudson, at Crow Creek
and one at Cheyenne have had their
stores closed up. Besides, the Crow
Creek affair is only one of ms ry-the
frauds at the Red Cloud ag, ", the
Pawnee agency, the Crow Cree agency
and elsewhere, are quite to fresh to 0-call
this exceptional. trf,
1t must also be observed that, so far as
anv appointment could be guarded un-
der the present system, Livingston's
was. He was chosen and recommended
by the advising committee of the EDisco-
pal Church of the United Stat rs, q body
OF the highest character. He gave fonts
and stained glass windows to churches,
while agent, in recognition of this mark
OF confidence. He stands, or stood, yery
nigh at Yankton. Obviously, then, the
fault is, first, in the system Of appointing
agents to represent the various religious
bodies, which is a most unstatemenlike
ana unbu'inesslike proceeding, and,
secondly, in the entire method of con-
ducting the Indian Bureau under which
frauds so gross could pass unchallenged
for seven years. If on this well-travelled
thoroughfare, by land and water routes,
frauds were so sheltered from detection,
when so many persons were concerned
in them, how may it be at less freauent-
ed agencies, where only single and
safe style of cheating Is practi-ed? So
long as Livingston made regular reports
about the best methods of civllizing the
nations wards, and the immense i'm
provement that had been made in their
lot, under the "peace policy" his record
was good mt the Indian Office. And he
never tailed in that respect In his last
r port he advised that the jurisdicti IN of
United States Courts should be ex ended
by Congress over the indians, ain order
that Indians should understand that they
could not commit crimes and 90 un-
punished" They are cool and bad fel-
lows, these Indians.

rected to the Sun from Dakota Terrific y,
with az illegible postmark, and signed by
Thomas Norris, states that on the rven-
aged about forty years, formerly of
