The North american Reyieao for No.
venber opens with series OF replies, by
Julia Ward Howe, Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, Thomos Wentworth Higgon-
son, Lucy Stone and Wendell Phillips,
to Mr.. Parkman's article ON 1.-THE Wo.
man Question:" which appeared in the
October number. They are united under
the title, "The Other side of the Woman
Question:" and give very complete pre-
sentati0n OF the arguments in favor OF
extending the right Of suffrage to wo-
men. The second paper is an attack on
NJ Malthusianisin, Darwinism and Pessim
ism, by Professor Fran ,is Bowen, OF
Harvard College. The writer declares
that Malthusianism has no advocates,
that Darwlnisin stands completely re
futed by the facts of nature, and that in
the despair of Pessimism we witness the
worst consequences OF the Malthusian
theory. This essay will be enjoyed by
those who like discussion in which no
quarter is given or taken. ga Page of

Trouble in q School.

Just now there is little excitement
in school district No. 4S, Kent county,
which is located between Pennington
and Harrington. The occasion OF which
is a school teacher Of the gentler sex
who persists in having her own way de-
spite the endeavors of two of the school
committee who have decided objections
to her way OF doing business. The
story briefly told is as follows: Of the
three commissioners who have the mat
ter of school district, No. 4S in charge,
two had made up their minds that they
would employ the same teacher they
had hired the previous term, and noti-
fled her accordingly, but this didn't suit
the Clerk of the committee, so he gave
notice to another teacher that they
would employ her. The consequence
was that both teachers appeared on Mon
day Of last week. Teacher No. lot
caring to contest her claims withdrew,
but the commissioner who held the key
to the school house declared teacher No.
2 should not enter, but she said she
would and did. She crawled IN through
the window, and up to last accounts
had possession of the room, although
legal measures have been taken 10 have
her expelled.

ComLany's shIpyards, in this city, for
overhanling and repairs The Hampton

for the Old Dominion Steamship Com
pany, but was recently sold to Mexi-
can firm. She is to be thoroughly over

ellei, her guard removed, some of her

number of extra steam appliances which
will work the rudder, hoist the anchor,
operate pumps in different parts of the
boat in case of fire, and hoist the sails
The model is perfection, and the work
on every portion of the vessel is Of the
most superior character.

NEW CASTLE LETTER
SHIP YARD BUBBLE-A MAN BADLY
BEATEN, &C.


New CASTLE, Oct. 20.
The past week has been one to be not
ed only for its lack of events. The ship
yard bubble presented the only subject
of interest, and many in their minds
had everything located. Saturday came
with break in the long dry spell, and a
series of events.
About 1O:30 a rumpus was kicked up
on Delaware street, nearly opposite the
Court House. Two arrests were made
but no charge was brought against the
offender and they We're discharged. At
tile Delaware Iron Works some part of
the machinery got out of order and the
whistle was blown several times, caus-
ing quite commotion upon the streets,
nearly everyone supposng it to be an
alarm of fire.
Near midnight cries of murder, ETC.,
were heard along the front row and four
men were seen in deadly struggle along
side the fence. At first it was supposed
to be those who had fallen asleep there
in the early part of the evening, but on
one of our citizens going to the spot with
lantern he saw that party of three
were beating stranger. Some one fur
ther up the street fired pistol and the
three ran off leaving the man bleeding.
He was found to be badly hurt, his nose
was bitten through and his face other
wise disfgured. After washing him he
was taken to his boarding house. The
parties who committed this deed are
known, and in justice to the residents
of Dobbinsville, it must be said they do
not belong in that section. Be- ween 2
and 3 O'Clock in the morning couple of
men were seen searching in the neigh
borhood of the fight for something. A
hat and slipper were found there i'm
mediately after the fight. 1t is supposed
they were the articles being looked for.
