From Our Regular Correspondent.
NEW CASTLE, Doc IS.
J Mine host of the Jefferson House, has
/ put in new billiard table, and given the
billiard room Thorough renovating,
making 1t, in its many conveMences aud
appointments, equal to any in the State
Ihis room is a favorite with Wilmington
experts who make practice of clearing
hp any doubts as to their abilities by try
inx themselves on these tables.
Worknen were engaged during the
past few days in puttiUg Washington
avenue in good order. This route is used
TO q great extent by persons living in the
west ana northern portion Of the HIM
railroad bridge. AS soon as Ninth street
is put In order and raised above high
water, 1t will be- by far the best route.
The dog ordinance has been posted, /,
and now we look for a determined war
upon the whole canine family. That por-
tlon or branch Of the family which has
taken up its quarters IN thus city is az best
rather worthless crew, and will have
but few mourners were the war carried
to extermiaation.
We heard number of gentlemen of
meaus say, they would have no hestita-
ton in building suitable hall, with am
pie accommodations for post-office aud
collectors office on the ground floor, and
ON the second story hall for entertain
lnen!s and Lectures, sea ing an audience
OF 100 to 1000, on condition that the post
office department would guarantee to
rent at $500 aud the treasury department
at $500 per anuum for a term of 10 years.
This would give us hall large enough to
enuce good entertainments to our city.
As yet no steps have been taken towards
asking for the mueh-needed pOst-ottice
building, but the constant growl is kept
up about the want of accommodations,
which we are forced to say arises from
the fact that no one will move in asking
for better.
Seventh street was covered to the
depth OF two feet with water yesterday,
and Ninth street was for while rather
impossible to pedestrians. This state OF
affairs should not be allowed to exist
much longer.
Now that court has adjourned, the
reading room will be opened, and it is to
be hoped that those for whose benefit 1t
is especially designed will make use of
the Opportunities afforded them, and that
it will receive the support of our citizens
in general. We would suggest to the
managers to open it with great flourish
of trumpets III order that the young men
may hear aud tell of the enterprise.
Clayton street was put in proper con-
dition yesterday. the workwas done by
contract. and was done in very credi-
table manner.
Sheriff Pyle reports 81 inmates in the
county jail. This is the smallest member
at auy time for the past four years. The

The war which was SO lneessantly waged
agains the tramps and peach plucks last
summer by the police has caused them
to give this city the cold shoulder. Ii
they can stand 1t we can.
The County farm at Hare's Corner,
was sold yesterday to Jas. Mccoy for
S13, 900, beng about $4,000 less than
what was paid for it.

LONDON, Dec. 10, 1873.

from Bombay says al Afghan Official has
arrived in Gsneral Brownies camp from
Jelalabad and invites the British to ad-
vance to Cabul and establish a new gov
ernment in consequence of general ris-
Ing against the Ameer. The dduertiser's
reports are not always trust worthy.
LEARNING BRITISH METHODS.
A despatch to. the Daily Ielegraph
from Dakka says it is reported that the
Ameer bas blown the comm indant of Ali
Musjid from a cannon's mouth. A cor
respondent of the Daily Neacs, in a des-
patch dated Rawul Pindee, says he has
some reason to believe that the Ameer
has sent relative and high dignitary to
MAJOR Cavagnari, at Dakka, beseeching
the British 10 grant peace and asking for
no conditions. Thy correspondent does
not assert this positively. The Times
despatch from Quetta says information
has been received confirming the report
that the garrison of Candahar has been
reinforced by Afghan troops from Herat
and large force of Turcoman cavalry.
