."Drifts" which are so called in river
parlance only, are composed Of masses of
dead grass and weeds that form down
close to the waters edge and are dropped
and lifted by the tide. Sometimes these
drifts get above high water mark on the
shore and became stationary, and tall
weeds grow up around Them. When this
is the case, the woodcock desires no bet

On Thursday last the same party made
the ascent of Mont FerissOn, an Alpine
mass nearly 5000 feet high. Leaving
Berthemont at 4 in the morning, they
reached the limits of tree vegetation by
7.30, and then rravsrsing the snowy
slopes for an hour longer, they attained
tho summit. The view from here was
very fine; on the north side was the
great granite range of the Maritime Alps
with Clapier, Gelas, and the Col des
Fenetres, standing out prominently; and
on the south, beyond the intervening
heights, the M editerranean was plainly
visible, with the coasts of Nice, Antilles,
and the Isles Of M Marguerite. While the
party were at breakfast on the noun
tain q couple of chamois came cantering
near. They stood for moment contem-
plating with curiosity the unexpected j
visitors; but ? shout from one of the boys
sent them galloping off again feet as the

Among the phenomena observed on
this excursion not the least interesting
was that of rose-c lored snow. Itlay In

DELINQUENT TAX PAYERS.

The attention of all persons who have
not paid their city and school taxes for
the year 1878 Is called to the following
law passed by the General Assembly in
1877:
"On the first Saturday of September
in each year the Assessors and Collectors
shall advertise in two Of the daily news
papers of the city of Wilmington full
list of the persons, whose taxes as afore-
said, for the preceding year are at that
date unpaid, together with brief de-
scription of the real estate taxed, and
shall within two weeks thereafter make
and deliver the certificates required by
this section to the Solicitor for said city,
for all such taxes assessed on real estate
as aforesaid, which shall not then have
been paid"
The Collectors give notice through an
advertisement in another column that
they will strictly enforce the law. Per
sons who do not desire their names to ap
pear as delinquent tax payers should pay

ice comes out in huge oblong blocks,
thirty-two inches in length and twelve
inches square. There is space In the

amounting in weight to 10000 pounds.
As it requires seventy-two bours, how.
ever, from the time the water is poured
into tie cans until it Is turned out again
in sold form, only one-third Of the
quantity is produced daily. 1t is the in
tention of the company to double the
works In very shot time. The blocks
in the new chest will be only six inches
thick, and as they will freeze much more

A LITTLE GIRLS COURAGE.

Miss Clara, a twelve year old daughter
of Mr.. John Thornbury, of Marshallton,
displayed yesterday morning, ON the
occasion of the fire at the above place, a
presence of mind and courage such as
are seldom seen in one SO young. The
barn of Mr.. Charles p. Smith, almost
dire ctly opposite thu Thornbury resi-
dence, was burning fiercely; the wind was
driving toward the east, aud the sparks
were flying wildly in the direction of the
house, some OF them finding Judgement
on the rsof. No one being in the house
at the time but this little girl, with a
GOODNESS and bravery rarely met with,
Miss Clara climbed from window into
the portico at the side of the dwelling,
thence short distance to the top of the
building, and there, unaided, for an hour
or more threw water upon the burning
cind-rs, and thus prevented what might
otherwise have been large and destruc-

Peter the Greats Pie.
From he.Norristown Herald.


Peter the Great was no slouch in invent
ing novelties in the way of dinners, and
invitations to them were always quoted
at premium. At one of the Cars
dinners a huge pie was placed in the
centre of the table, and when the carver
broke the crust out stepped a beautiful
dwarf lady, with no clothes on save a
headdress-and we think she might have
even dispensed with that without taking
a cold. After drinking the health of the
company in glass Of wine she was car
ried from the table-suffused with
bushes of shame, no doubt-and hur-
ried into her chamber and put on her
princesse overskirt, polonaise and things.
if Peter had sent us aniinvitation to one
of his dinners we should have returned
it with the legend "We're not that kind
of man" written in one corner. r

The late b. q. Ford, Of Queen Anne's

City week ago, was the largest peach
grower on the peninsula. He was the
owner of fourteen farms, all OF which
were productive and valuable. His will
was admitted to probate, from which it
appears that his estates will amount to
not less than $3OO,OU. The bulk OF
his property he devised to his two
daughters. ,.u
