Rev. D. Sommer, of Penn Township,
Chester county Pa, published in Oxford
Press the following statement:
HIS STATEMENT OF 1HE CASE.
Presuming that many reports have
reached you which may or may not be
correct, respecting my hydrophobic at
some Of your readers should suppose that
the disease cannot be hydrophobia, as
there are prospects of recovery, 1 begin
by stating the facts:
On Thursday evening about SIX o'clock
L sat down to supper, and by the simple
pouring out of glass of water, which
both saw and heard, most
strange and unerving sensation arose
within Inc. got up from the table and
after minute or two walked out DOORS
Though feeling but little relief returned
to the house, determined to test the mat
ter by pumping bucket of water. /
wanted to know whether the sensation
experienced at the table and the pouring
out Of the water were mere coincidents IN
time, or were related to each other in
fact. But l only had looked at the water
in the bucket ut contained gallon) hen
the form er sensation was produced in an
intensified degree. l turned from the
water, unnerved as never before in my
life, with considerable muscular emotion
and anxious, hurried breathing, fully con-
vinced that was victim ofhydropto Jia.
which cord you are aware means fear or
dread Of Dater. In view of DIR. Edward
Singley's article in the Press not long
since, 1 sent fer him and am glad to in
form our readers that he began the case
with confidence AMI so far has managed
most successfully. Respectfully yOuis,

The session of the Northern Convoca-
tion of the =. Z. Church, Dioc Sc of
Delaware, which has been held at Cal
vary =. +. Church for the past three
days, closed last evening. In the morn
ing the sermon was preached by Rev. Mr..
Kaye. and IN the afternoon the question,
"The Christ tiin-n the House, In the
Church." was thoroughly discussed by
all the clergy present.
In the evening there was large audi
ence present, and Rev. Mr.. Murphy de-
livered an interesting address on "Home
M ssi)D These missions he said, were
eight in number aud required the SER
vices of over two hundred missionaries,
clergy and laity. Among the Indians OF
the west there is one Bishop, with forty
two clergymen under his charge while
among the negroes of theSouth the cause
of the church is being successfully ad-
vanced.
The speaker next alluded to the great
need of money for the successful mainte-
nance of those missions, and made an
appeal for more liberal contributions to
this cause. He also gave an interesting
his ory of the origin and progress of the
Indian mission work in Utah and Idaho.

Letter from 1T. Georges.

Fair and Festiudi-Reuirdl at the M.
T.. Church-1he Post Office.
Correspondence of the GAZETTE.
ST GEORGES, DEL, Feb ia fair
and festival was held in the lecture room
of the Presbyterian church, on Thursday
and Friday evenings last. Considering
the incemency of the weather the at
tendance was very fair and the receipts
surprising to all As we entered the south
door of the lecture room our attention
was drawn to the left, where there was a
well, artistically arranged, for the sale of
lemonade. Within the inclosure were
three young ladies', Miss Lottie Long
land, Miss Mollie Allston and Miss EN-
ma McWhorter, and OF course, as one
would naturally suppose, there was a
considerable amount of attraction III this
part of the room, and the amount of
sales from lemonade was handsomely in
creased. BY the side of this well was tho
art gallery, and from certain amount of
inattentiOn on the part of some of our
young male friends, we regret to say 1t
was failure. The cake table was very
tastefully arranged, and was superintend-
ed by Miss Ella Taylor and Miss Esther
Longland.
The fancy table was located on the
north side of the room and was filled
made by the little ones of the Sunday
school, which speaks wonders for the
youth of our circle, The room In gem
eral was very tastefully arranged, and
those having the fair and festival in
charge deserve much credit for the man
ner in which they conducted it, and the
uneXpec ed receipts realized.
AT the close of the festival Mr.. Theo-
dore Clark was presented with cake as
token of respect from the young ladies',
for the active part he assumed. Also,
Mr. Addison Aspril was the recipient of
another very beautiful cake. The inter
est Mr.. April takes in these entertain
ments makes HIM worthy of respectfrom
our PRESBYTERIAN friends for we notice
his services are invariably solicited on
such occasions and his helpiL & hand is
always ready.
Prorracted meeting at the NJ. e. church
is still going on with much success to-
wards the conversion of many sinners
souls.
We notice in the Republican of the 11th
inst, letter from st. Georges, speaking
somewhat abruptly in reference to the
persons endorsing Mr.. Benjamin Davis
for =. NJ. of our town las not being hon
es, persons). We think the assertion is
out of place. From what we know and
hear, it can safely be said that at least
two-thirds of the people receiving and
deposting mail matter at this office, de-
sire change, not for any disrespect of
our present p. NJ, but from his careless
and inattentive manner OF performing
the duties of the office, and permitting
persons to have access to the mail mat
ter who have no authority whatever.

THE MARKETS.

MIR. EDITOR :-Several communica-
tions have appeared in Euery Euen,ng
and Daily Republican,, of this city, con-
cerning the removal Of the markets from
King street to Market street the tone
of all of these articles infer that 1t was a
scheme concocted by the Second street
butchers for their special benefit.
This ] have no hesitancy in saying Is
false, as have seen a petition with from
three to four hundred names of the lar
gest property holders and heaviest tax
payers in the city, and failed to see the
name of one butcher; neither did l see
any butchers getting signers to a petition
in my judgment there has never been a
stronger petition presented to City Coun-
Gil than the one presented last Thursday
evening, in favor of the removal of the
markets. II lengthy petition had been
required, l have no doubt but that the
petitioners could have increased their
petition to thousands, without soliciting
the signatures of non-residents and those
of persons living on the outskirts of the
city.
| have been Informed that the markets
have been thoroughly canvassed for sew
eral days for signatures to Oaremonstrance,
without regard to sect or color. Now, /
would ask any business man If such a
petition should have any weight before
our City Council, in face of petition
signed by over four hundred persons,
nine-tenths of whom are in some legitl-
ma G business.
Now, let me ask who are the principal
movers in circulating the remonstrauce |?
Are any of them business men on Mar
ket street? i was informed that there
was firm on Market street getting sig
natures to the remonstrance, represent
ing that the business men on Market
street were not In favor of the removal
of the markets hut on making inquiry
into the matter discovered that it was a
firm who had rented a store on King
street, which they intended to occupy
on the 25th day of next March.
Now let me ask who are the men on
King street, who are so much opposed
to the markets being removed. They
are men who have rented shanties of all
kinds, for the selling of merchandise
Old stables are being turned into meat
stalls, etc; others have rented old frame
buildings, aud relet others at such
rates, which gives them business place
which really costs them nothing, while
there are o hers on market days under
pieces of old canvass, selling beef, NUT
ton veal, pork, etc. Go further you will
find man who has stepped into some
gentlcman's alley, thrown board across
and there offers for sale anything in the
geat's furnishing goods. Go still further
and you will see every branch of bust ness
represented from gentleman's necktie
to even bed mattresses. These are the
men who are SO bitterly opposed to the
removal of the markets from King street.
In conclusion, let me ask, is 1t any
wonder that the great majority Of the
business men ask for the removal of such
a market, as has been described, for be-
heving, as / do, in case of the markets
being removed, we will have legitimate
curb stone market, as the ordinance calls
for Il.

lInrper's Magazine for NJ March.
lA1D.

Harper's Magazine for March, offers
an unusual variety of matter to its mil
lion readers, while IL contains no article
that Is not especially noteworthy; and its
illustrations, of which there are eighty
1--WE, are remarkable examples of the
best style of wood-engraving.
Two illustrated papers are devoted TO
art subjects, without perceptibly dimin-
ishing the space given to topics of more
general interest. The first of these, enti-
tied "Pre,ent Tendencies Of American
Art" is the beginning of a series OF pa
pers on American Art-a sequel to the
series gwen a year ago Oh "Contempora-
ry Art in Europe" by the same author,
Mr.. S. &. w. Benjamin. The twenty
pictures illustrating this paper are repro
ductions of recent paintings by w. NJ.
Hunt, George lines, Frank Rogers, b.
G.. Porter, J.J. Enneking, Louis Tiffany,
q. III. Miller, Il. Dielman, j. Alden Weir
Eastman johnson, K. Swain Clifford,
Colman, Fidella Bridges, w. M. Chase,
IL. Muhrman. Thomas Eaklns, Miss M.
S. Cassatt, and Walter Shirlaw. Bold as
is this attempt to reproduce paintings in
wood-engravings in popular M agazine,
1t is marvellously successful. The other
art paper is devoted to Rembrandt, the
first OF the "Old Ouch Masters" with
four beautifully executed engravings.
Alfred II. Story contributes paper OF
great popular interest concerning the
English home of Washingtun's ancestors,
full of important facts, and containing,
among its excellent Illustrations, pic
tue of the ancestral mansion OF the
