No Glass Over the Dead.

MEssRs. EDIToRs Il wish to call the
attention of the lot holders of the Will
mington and Brandywine Cemetery to
an order given by one of the directors
of the company, to have all the glasses,
flower pots and water pots moved out OF
the lots. Now think this is an out
rageous order and ought to be- resisted
even to blows. bought my lot sub
ject to the regulations of the company,
but those regulations must be reasona-
BILE. | have the right to decorate my
lot in any way please providing |
don't put anything there offensive to
sight or smell. 1t may not do the dead
any good to decorate the graves but it
is qualification of the living to deco
rate the graves of their loved ones, and
that order must be rescnd-d and that
soon, or the man who gave it BE- re
moved. JOHN W. HAWKINS.

The DEMOCRATIC Senatorial caucus
yesterday discussed the resignation of
Senator Bayard Of the chairmanship of
the Finance Committee, but coming to
no conclusion adjourned over until to
day. The indications were however
very clear, that the resignation would
not be accepted, and that the silver
bill would be left in the hands of the
Finance Committee until next session.
This is Senator Bayard's triumph and
a cl IAN back down of the Democratic
party to the doughty Senator Of little
Delaware. As the Democrats declared
that they would lose 10000 votes in
Ohio if the Warner silver bill was not
passed, we reckon they will now say
they will gain that number of votes by
letting it sleep in the hands of the Fl.
nance Committee. They are all things
to all men.

As TUE HOT thirsty summer is now
upon us it IS incumbent that people
should exercise some Judgment in
what they drink and the quantity of
the liquors they drink for their sum-
mer beverages. Thousands of persons
will during the summer die suddenly
or iniure themselves by drinking that
which they should not drink. No mat
ter how hot the summer, or how thirsty
an individual le ONES, there are cool
ing wholesome beverages which will
not only allay heat but quench the
thirst but we must not forget either
that many Of the 50 called cooling
drinks" are really heating drinks.
The julep or punch may be deliciously
cool on the palate, but at the same
time it is fire t. the blood. The less
the average man has to do with alco
holic drink in any of its guises or dis
guises during the continuance OF hot
weather, the. better it will be for his
comfort as well as for his health. 1t
should not be forgotten either that 50
far as iniudicious drinking is concern
ed, it is Just as possible to be intem-
perate in the use of water, especially
ice water, as in the use of Intoxicating
liquors, and that sudden death turks
in the ice cooler as well as in the demi-
John.

munication from Mr.. E. L. Rice, Jr.,
stating that we were in error in stating
that the building committee Of the
Levy Court were controlled by political
bias in their actions in the choice Of an
architect for the new court house. Mr..
Rice does not think that politics had
anything whatever to do with the ac-
ton. 1t will be noticed in all that we
have said the idea is purely our own
and Mr.. Rice should no. be held &C.

said. The charge of political bias is

Two Back Downs.

There have been two hack downs by
the Democrats since the extra session
of Congress convened at Washington.
They have completely backed down
from the position they assumed, when
they first met and when they were
willing TO let the army die ratl.er than
to vote the needed supplies to keep it
alive. We hear no more talk now of
starving the army, though the Demo
Gratis are making show OF opposition,
but they are letting themselves down
as easy as possible. The other back
was from the position the party as
sumad on the Warner silver bill which
has already passed the House and
would no doubt have long ere this
have passed the Senate had not Sena-
tor Bayard and Senator Herman revolt
ed a,ainst it. The Delaware Senator
being chairman of the Finance Com
mite, rather than report the bill to
which he was opposed 10 the Senate,
threaten ned to resign his position. He
spake lik. Canute to the ocean: "This
far and no farther shalt though 60 and
here shalt thy proud waves be stayed, -
but unlike the ocean the tide ceased to
flow. The Democratic party of the ma
ton backed down from its position on
the Finance question simply because
Bayard stood in the way, and from
pres mt appearances it looks as if the
Senator vas to have his own way, for
the party cannot afford to lose his in
fiuence. His associates in the Senate
dare not force an open rupture with
him at the present time so soon after
having backe down from their posi-
tion ou the army and other appropria-
ton bills. 1t has already been an
nounc.d that the campaign in Ohio is
to le conducted on financial issues, and
that if the Warner bill does not pass
the Senate the Democratic party will
lose 10000 votes in that State. Wheth-
er the bill passes or not makes but lit
tie difference now, as there will be a
revolt, if it passes, led by such men as
Bayard and Kernan. To the Democracy
1t is "head | win or tail you lose," in
favor of the Republican party, and the
latter will reap the benefits no matter
what position the Democratic party
may assume, President Hayes brought

JEFF. DAVIS remarked in speech a
few days ago that he never yet saw a
reconstructed Southern woman, but if
he had only thought for a moment he
might have told his audience that he
saw hastily constructed one at Irwin.
Vile, Georgia, May 10th, 1865, and
that she tried hard but without avail
to get away from regiment of North
ern men who were anxious to be intro
duced to her. Does JEFF. recollect that

IT is SAID now that President Hayes
will sign the Legislative Appropriation
bill. Secretary Sherman has examined
it and in comparing it with the Legis.
lative bill of last year certain portions
of which is re, enacted, he found there
would be no difficulty in carrying out
its provisions. This it is thought re-
moves the apprehensions of veto, and
and SO one of the appropriation bills
will be allowed to become Law.
