THERE HAS BEkS considerable distrust
manifested in the Levy Court, for fear
that body should by some means thwart
the will Of the people by postponing
the building Of the new Court House
for a year or two, or until the meeting
OF the next Legislature. We are glad
to see that this mistrust has Deen ell
tirely uncalled for so far as they have
yet acted. At the invitation of the City
Council they came to Wilmington and
looked around amongst the various
sites proposed for the new building,
and then when they got through with
their regular routine Of revising the
assessments they promptly chose site,
and they are now looking around
amongst the Court-houses of the neigh,
boring counties to See how they are
built and what they cost, preparatory
to having plans and specification.
drawn up. All this is right and proper
and shows that the Levy Court are 60
ing about their business in business
like manner. 1t is shere nonsense t,
talk Of havisg Courthouse built herr
in time for the holding of the fall tern
of Court, or even at the spring term
and even if it could be built, it is no
desirable that it should be rushed VI
in such a hurry. A building Of tn,
size it is expected to build it, will b.
all the frmer by having time to settle
Under favorable auspices the building
of it could hardly be commenced befor,

occupied in the building Of it TO max

to know that no disposition is mani

The Court Mouse Site.

THR LEVY COURT has At last done
something definite in the direction Of
building = new Courthouse in Will
mington, by accepting the proposed
site offered by the City Council, at
Tenth and Market streets. There can
be no doubt that the site is the most
convenient and eligible at the present
time for all parties concerned, tho ugh
there are many who think that one
half the Square would have been sufi
ci-nt for the purpose at the present
, time. The square is worth at least
$50, 900 and is free gift to the County
from the City of Wilmington, that our
citizens might be saved the annoy anc.
and inconvenience of having to 80 to
New Castle to attend court in a crowd
ed, unheaithy Courthouse, and suffer
for want Of proper accommodations.
As the whole square has been accept
ed by the Levy Court, we hope now
that when they are about to have plans
and specifications drawn mp they will le
for building on the elevation in ta-
centre of the square, and that all the
remainder of the square may be devo
ted to park handsomely laid out with
squirting fountains at each corner. 1t
would be pity to deface such asquare
by the building Of Jail on it even for
temporary purposes, unless it would be
confined to the basement where it
could not be seen. As Wilmington has
surrendered the handsonest square in
the city for the building Of tho court
house every care should be taken that
the building should not only be con-
venient and comfortable, but that it
should be ornamental as we'll. Stand
ing upon the highest elevation in the
city proper and facing the four points
of the compass, it should be commen
surate with the .dvanced spirit Of the
age, and as New Castle County has 50
long suffered with little oramp"d up
court house, it is nothing more than
risht that tn" nearest approach to the
extreme other should be taken. Lat
the new court house be built in accord
with its elevated site an! the surround.
ings and all will be right.
