Letter From 81. Georges.
Sr. GEoRGRs, DEL., April 5, lS7y.

ST.. GEORGES, DEL, April s, 1879.
MEssns. EDIroRs:-Spring las not
been "gentle spring" SO far and our
farmers are chafng under the back
wardness of the sowing season. Wheat
has growing but slight. 1t looks well
however. Those who know predict
peaches. Mr.. A. Q. Newton has up
rooted about one half OF an heretofore
Improbable orchard.
Mr.. Thos. p. Belville, whose house
on Wrangle Hill was burned down
last Fall or Winter, is occupying new
one erected on the site of the cid. I'm.
provements in the village are going on
slowly, however, we are not at stand
still.
Our Council is talking strongly of
paving the sidwalks. Bricks are cheap;
labor likewise; and we understand that
the money is on hand-why not do it,
as it seems the appoint d tine.
Rev. J. France moved out Of the N.
L. Church parsonage last week, and
was followed next day by Rev. ]. A.
s;ypherd his successor. Mr.. Sypherd
preached his inaugural On sunday
morning. The listeners expressed
great satisfaction and we therefore pre-
dict great success TO the new minister.
The public schools opened last Mon
day for another years work. Last Sat
urday's election resulting in elscting
Mr.. A. N. Sutton Clerk in place OF Mr..
Vim. II. B-ntz retiring, and Mr.. VIM.
NJ. Stuckart as Conmittre for two years
in place of Mr.. b. d. Long!and, who
moved from here to New CGstle. ,Unu-
sual interest was taken in tn. election.
A large vote was cast. Ev4rything,
however, passed OFF pleasantly. We
learn that our neishboring district'Ss
had great trouble in finding u man who
would be willing to acceptthe position
of Clerk. They finally imposed it on
Mr. VIM. Carnagy. District.53 was en-
larged during the past winter, by at
taching Mr.. Joab Allston's farm to it;
it formerly was part of District So.
We also learn that the good people Of
the Red Lion district, voted down the
tax. Well, as long as the law allows
barbarous privileges the people will
take advantage Of them. QuGRcUs.

OBITUARY.

To the memory OF George w., ron Of Jamei
and Isabella McVey, who departed this ltft
q arch 3lst, 1879, aged years and months
"for Of such Is the Kingdom Of Heaven"
Little George was bright, active little
OF sweet disposition, the Idol Of his parents.
His suffering was intense, and he frequently
would say "mamma ] will Gle" Although 20
young death had no terors, 70 little Georgie
passed away, bis sufierinEs are OYER. Al.
though every effort that kind friends could
make to restore him to health was tried, yet
AIl was In vain, and he died just rs the b d
was beginning to bloom. Now his merry laugh
Is hushed, no more will you hear his little pat
gone. The parents hearts are almost crushed,
Is this 10 their first great sorrow.
The Great Physician, from On high,
Came down on wings OF love,
And healed your darling little boy,
And all his pains removed.
And now his suffering body rests
In the cold and silent tomb,
His happy little spirit scars
With angels saie at home.
Remember, Jesus knows what's best,
His ways are Just and right;
The soul OF your beloved child
Was lovely In His sight.
Then father, mother dry your tears,
And leave your dazzling son.
You know he is an angel bright,
1hen say by will be done.
How unexpected was tho stroke,
That crushed the budding flower:
On how uncertain Is this life,
IL witlIereth In an nOur.
Ana when your trials here are past,
With happiness and joy,
Again unto your arms you'll clasp
Your darling little boy. c.

From tho Okolona miss. J Southern States
Mississippi has more power in the
Union to-day than Massachusetts,
Three cheers and Bengal tiger

diers Stand back. we say. The old
Confederate boys propose to run the re-

Yankee blue coats have fallen way
below par in Washington City. The
Confederate Gray commands premium
Glorious Push on the column
Congress swar,ns with Bourbons OF
the old family pattern, and they are
making things redhot for Yankee Radi'
calls and Southern softshells.
It may bscolae the imperative duty
Of President Davis to accept the United
States Senstorship, whether he wants
it or not. These Yankees must 10

We have captured tho Capitol, and
the name Of Jefferson Davis will hereaf.
ter be spoken with reverence in its his
toric halls, while his picture will yet
grace, and his memory will yet glorify
the place forever.
Who was 1t that the Yankee yellow
fever fund had reunited our Republic
in bonds Of brotheriy love; that there
would bs no more harsh passages-at.
arms between the North and South;
that the lion had laid down with tie
lamb, and all that kind of fol-de-rol !!
Was it the Conservatives :?
Yes, we bclieve---in fact We know it
was the Conservatives, for they are
forever saying or doing something that
is distinguished for tomfoolery.
Well, it seems that all the old
wounds were rs-cpened in that Jefier-
son Davis confsb in the United States
Senate, and tho two sections are now
whettipg their knives for furious
Presidential fight in 1880.
We know it!
