A SERIOUS FALL.

On Sa urday evening as Mr.. A. Henze,
was on his way home, and in crossing
Market street, in front Of the Second
Street Market House, his right foot caught
between two Of the gutter plates that had
not been closed up when laid, and trip
ping he fell to the pavement. He was
assisted up from his position when he
found that he was unable to walk. He
was carried TO his home on West Second
street, and DR.. Kirchner summoned, who
on examination found that the ankle was
broken. The accident is very serious
one, all the small bones being completely
shattered. He will be unable TO walk
for several weeks.

Letter from Samuel Tewnsel
For the DELAwARE GAZETTE.

The election is over, and the disap-
pointments to parties are accounted for In
a variety of ways. Some say it was too
much gold standard /; others, too much
greenbacks. And so, while these volun-
tary opinions are going round, l propose
TO give mine. Ihave no doubt Fernando
Woods tariff bill last summer was the
main cause that defeated the Democrats
in Connecticut, New Jersey and Penn
sylvania, for in these States the tariff
question over-rides all other questions.
You may look at Judge Kelley's district
in Philadelphia. Although Kelley was
great greenbacker, in rich, hard-money
district, he was tariff man that could be
depended on and was elected, and Phila-
delphia aud Pittsburg, two ofthe greatest
manufacturing cities of the U. S., carried
Pennsylvania, democratic qurrelling in
New York city, and Eastern New York
for stealings in prospect, divided the party
there, and in Western New York the
thoughts of solid South caused them to
vote the Republican ticket, the west was
pandering tolisms, and is nowhere. Now in
my opinion, the success Of the Demo
cratic party in 1880 depends on two
things; the money and the tariff ques-
ton. Every Democrat think ought to
be satisfied with the old Jackson idea,
gold and silver, and paper that could be
converted into either gold or silver, at the
option Of the holder. The next thing is a
tariff the Democrats should not agree TO
the present tariff bill, with some altera-
tions to make 1t bear as near equal AS
all the States as possible; before the war,
the Southern men put the proceeds Of sale
of the public land into the U. S. Terri
tory to help pay the debts, and keep the
tariff as low as possible.
When the war took place in 1861, and
since railroad thieves have been stealing
and using the public lands for their pri-
vate uses. II is the duty Of the Demo
cratic Congress to arrest and stop this
thieving of railroad corporations, and
this fund for sales of public land could
do more good to the masses of the peo-
pie by using every dollar of it to educate
the white children, and colonize the me-
groes in a country where they would be
of one color and interest, and could live
more happy, if they were so disposed,
than in this country. This bupbear.
solid South, as it is called, will more
than ever demand of the Democratic
party of the nation, high, honorable
course of fairness to the whole Union,
SO as to disarm old abolitionist Northern
sectional preludices, and such men as
Fernando Wood, Sunset Cox, and Alex
ander Stevens should be made take back
seat in the Democratic party. The old
Jacksonian Democratic battle-cry was TO
know no North, no South, no East, no
West. This cry must be re-pledged by
the Democratic party in Congress, and
then in 1880 the Democratic party will
walk over the Union as the Democratic
party walked over our little State of Del
aware last Tuesday.

TWO coLoRED MEN AND wonEN ASSAULT
ED ON THE AVENUE LAST svRNINa-A
BOLD OUTAGE.

BOLD OUTRAGE.
Delaware avenue, near the middle depot
was the scene ofa bold and defiant out
rage last evening
From what can be learned OF the cir
cumstances it appears that between 3 and
9 O'Clock two colored couples were walk
ing out the avenue, and when near Rod
ney street, they were set upon by gang
of white ruffians who committed vio-
ent assault upon them.
The two colored men were quickly
separated from their female companions
and carried by actual force down into
one of the fields. Meanwhile the re-
mainder of the gang assaulted the two
women and threw them to the ground.
but whether they were outraged or not
cannot be ascertained at this writing.
The women, when they were attacked,
commenced to scream "Murder police p
and "Help9' but this did not seem to de-
ter the roughs from their work, until
fortunately one Of the girls broke loose
from the grasp of her assailant, and
speeding up the Avenue, ran to the resi-
dence of Mr.. George II. Sellers, No. I4i3
Delaware Avenue rang the bell, and
asked for protection.
Her appeal was granted, a. was also
the other woman, who arrived in few
minutes afterwards One of the men,
after struggling for some time broke
loose from his captors, and came in town
on a run. What became of the other one
IL not known. Meanwhile Mr.. Sellers
sent the two girls into town on the street
car. He also stood at his gate for some
time and warned others whowere prone
nading OFT the Avenue of the occur
renee.
This is not the first time that like Of
fences have occurred in that neighbor-
hood, and number of the residents
say II is dangerous TO travel the ave-
nue. after o'clock, without beisg armed.
The parties should be looked after by
the proper officials.

State Of the City Treasury.

AT the last meeting OF the council, Mr.
Guthrie, the chairman of the Finance
Committee asked for an extraordinary
appropriation to pay interest as the
money appropriated for that purpose
was exhausted The City Treasury is
not allowed to pay out money in excess
of the appropriation, which must be
made by council at the beginning of the
year. The reason of the exhaustion of
this appropriation was the sum required
for interest and discount on notes, or
what may be called The floating debt,
which was unforeseen.
The following statement of the floating
debt of the city has been handed TO rs by
City Treasurer Francis Vincent
The total amount of notes done for the
city during the year, (or since January l
1879, was S347 ,975 %. This was in Is
notes, most of them drawn for 80 days.
On this the city paid S4 ,40l 10 for discount
aud interest The total amount the CITY
now owes in negotialiable netes is SILL
5OO She also owesabout 81 900 for interest
not called for by the people to whom 1t
is due. She has on hand i'll bank, Sl3,-
559 80. She also owes on miscellaneous
matter, Sl32 81. Therefore tho floating
debt of the city stands thus:

A MANIFEST ABsURDITY.

1t is manifcstly absxrd to claim for a mere
stimulant, tonic and Alternative properties. Vet
this is what is daily done by the vendors of cheap
local bitters, colored to make them look attrac-
tive. and agreeably favored, but the alcoholic
basis OF which is OF the vilest and most hurtful
description. The transcendent success Of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, the leading Alternative
tonic OF the United States, has induced many OF
these compoundsrs Of drains in disguise, to at
tempt the connterfeiting of this standard medi-
cine, but their efforts have never proved success
ful on a large scale, and they have themselves in
many instances VIGOROUSLY "come to grief"
through the instrumentality Of the aw.
The genuine Bittels have, indeed. u spirituous
basis. but they are emphatically a medicine,
since their botanic ingredients are signally eff
cacious in overcoming and preventing chills and
fever, dyspepsia, liver complaints, constipation.
and many other disorders.
