A Daring Highway Robbery.

The following appears to be as near
correct as possible about the robbery
Of Mr.. Graf, of Claymont, on the Phila-
delphia pike near Shellpot creek:
Mr.. Graf happened to be at Edge
Moor station, ana having failed to catch
the train lie concluded to take walk
around the neighborhood until the ar
rival of the next train. In his walk he
was Joined by young man who also
said he had missed the train, and soon
they were pleasantly chatting together
as they walked on towards the Phila-
d-lphia pike, and reached small
clump of woods near the creek.
Here Mr.. Graf pulled out his wallet
to consult his time table with an idea OF
returning to the station. While look
ing at his time table, to his great sur
prise his companion suddenly snatched
his wallet from his hand and at the
same time made a grab for his watch,
but the guard breaking he failed to se-
cure the latter. Mr.. Graf who is quite
aged struck the thief blow with his
cane, but the latter ran and escaped
with the wallet and small sum OF
money.
The affair occurred between 6 and 7
o'clock in broad daylight but Mr.. Graf
has no idea as to who his assailant was, +,
and he says he was not roughly used
in the assault. The thief was medium
sized, with red hair, mustache and
goatte, frecliled face and wore blue
overs!ls. NJ. G says he is not tramp
as he spoke to several persons whom he
met and he spoke familiarly Of things
about Edge Moor.

An Anger's Cuteness.

Last evening a young man named
Samuel Anger employed by dry goods
merchant in Philadelphia, on South
street betweeen Third and Fourth, was
arrested at the residence of Andrew
Fischer No. ll3 Shipley street, this city,
upon information from Mr.. Jestnor his
employer, for the theft of$l0O.55 which
he had given him to purchase U. S. GER
tificates.
1t seems that as soon as Anger got
possession of the money, in place of do.
ing as directed he took the next train
for Wilmington, closely followed by Mr..
Jestnor, where he was arrested as above
stated. He will be taken to Philadel-
phia in charge of an officer of that city.

How 10 This?

The Smyrna "Times'' Of yesterday
accuses the Levy Court of New Castle
County Of bad faith in the erection of
the bridge at Flemming's Landing over
Duck Creek bridge, between New Cas-
tie ard Kent Counties, the bridge be.
ing the joint work of the two Counties.
1t says that Charles H. Register, Presi-
dent of the Kent County Levy Court
manifested perhaps more interest than
any other member in the project and
was selected by verbal contract to su-
perintend the erection Of the bridge.
Mr.. Register as per his agreement with
Samuel Roberts, chairman of the build
ing committee on the part of New Cas-
tie County gave sixty days of his time
to this purpose, but at their meeting
at New Castle on the 9Th inst, they re-
fused to pay him the one-half or any
part of the money agreed upon. This
repudiation was in marked contrast
with the action of the Kent County
Court, which properly compensated
Mr.. R. for his time and labor.

prudence. The proceeding at New Cas-
tie the last few days and the final de-
cision to-day will be blot Oh Della
wares fair name that can never be

the age, so plunged in ignorance and
prejudice. We are not situated so far

such as New York and Penna., where
right is right without respect to race
or color. When visit other parts OF

them was from Ireland. People say
ooh, its the fault ofpolitics; politics are
so corrupt" But why need they be
corrupt. Are we not a free people ?
No We are slaces, slaves to party. Look
at the example set to other young men.
If such dreadful deeds are passed over
lightly our lives and property are no
longer safe here. Oh shame on those
who were afraid to do what they knew
to be right in this matter. do not be.
li4va in taking the life We can not give
and in few more years the people
generally viii. consider hanging relic
of barbarism, bu. | do not believe in

Special Correspondence Of the Republican.
DOVER, DEL, May 2lst, '79.
There was quite stir here yesterday
among the fruit growers caused by the
report that the peach crop OF this conn
ty which was so promising would be al
most total failure. Many Of the Or
chards we're examined and reports re-
ceived from all parts of the county, all
of which went to confirm the report
TO all outward appearances the peaches
are perfect but when closely examined
they are found to be rotting. The
late fros,s are supposed to be the cause.
The stock of Mr.. J. II Paynter for
Attorney General is going up in this

outlook he will make hard fight. Mr..
Paynter will make good and efficient
officer.

The Assailani to be Arrested.

YESTERDAY afternoon the storm which
80 threatened our city poured the bur
den of lis contents in the vicinity oI
Bellevue. There the fall was so inces.
SAINT that the workmen employed in the
bellevue quarries wer7 compelled tt
quit work and run for shelter TO tht
blacksmith shop. Here they gathered
wniie the rain was falling, one OF tht
number, John Rose by name began tt
"deyiln as our informant expresses it,
with the boy in the shop.
Rose becoming too rough in his treat
ment of the lad, the boy called
another colored man standing by, named
John Waverly, to his assistance. John
wen. and he and Rose began to "tus-
sell which soon grew into wrestling
exhibition to decide who was superior
of the two. Waverly had thrown Rose
twice. at this Rose, who was much
ulscomfted began to get angered; when
he fell the third time he pulled out a
knife or razor and cut Waverly through
his clothing and inhicting a wound
about an inch an half i'll length, the
incision was only stopped by the ribs.
The blood spurted, and Waverly,
Immediately jumping to his feet, pick
ed up drill and pursued Rose, who
had regained his feet and was making
his escape. Waverly came up with
Rose and dealt him crushing blow
under the ear with the iron instrument.
Rose fell to the ground, and was after
wards picked up, as it was then
thought, in dying condition. A col
ored man named Samuel Budges was
dispatched to this city for physician,
and also to lodge complaint against
Mav-rly at the polc- station.
de called at the Office of DR.. Ogle,
who Immediately drove out to the spot
and found the condition of both
men to be serious but not sufficient TO
excite very serious alarm. Budges
then swore out warrant ior Waverly's
arrest before Squire O'Neill, subject to
a suggestion from the Mayor, who, on
being complained to, stated he had no
jurisdiction over the matter. The war
lant was placed i'll constable Dillon 5
Aands for service, and the apprehea-
sion Of the man Waverly is expected
to-day. 1t was rumored on the streets
that Rose had since died, but the most
rcru'inizing search on our part has
fa..ci 10 bring any information that
wouid warrant such conclusion.
