Hear the sledges with the bells-silvs

What world { merrimsnt their melody
ioretelis,
How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle, on tht
10y air si night
Never was there any better sleighing
in Wilmington than yesterday. The
snow Tuesday, slightly damp when il
fell, packed tightly, and the streets all
day was as glib as ice. The air was
cool and bracing, and sleighing vas the
favorite pastims. All day long the air
was musical with the merry jingle OF
the sleigh bells, and sleighs that had
not seen the light for sume time were
kept going constantly all day.
French street was the fsvorits resort,
and all afternoon the scene presented
there was exciting Slsighs Of all de-
scriptions were passing to and fro-the
double-seated sleigh was not more
numerous than the country jumper
and everybody appeared to be having
good time. Racing was the tavorite
pastime, and it was INDUCED in at
every opportunity-ths opportunities
were frequent, ii should be stated.
Along toward night the sport grew
msdder and mer.ier, and the scene pre-
sented was = brilliant and exciting one.
The street was crowded with many fine
turnouts, and many handsome ladies
enjoyed the sport, which lasted until a
late hour.
ACCIDENTS OF THE DAY.
OF course accidents wer9 numerous,
and q complete record of them would
fill column. One of the most exciting
took place on French street. about a. 80
o'clock in the afternoon, when the
splendid horses Of Ms. Rodgers ran
away. The only one in the sleigh at
the time was the driver, and he held
the horses in, and hravoly clung to the
ribbons after the s'e,gh was upset at
Front street Th- t"ugue was broken,
but the horses were topped at the p,
W. & B. Railroad track.
The slsighs Of William Merrick and
Reese A. Merritt collided on French
street, In the afternoon. The only dam
age was . broken shaft.
A party of four, two men and two
v omen, in double-seated sleigh, we're
upset on King street below Third, in
The evening. The whole crowd were
women especially so, and
they had quite time before they got
started on their journey again.

Quite a number of other acei Tents
occurred, but no one was hart.

TIE "NARRAGANSRIT."
A Wilmington Vessel Puts Into
Norfolk Disabled.

A Wilmington Vessel Puts Into
Norfolk Disabled.
Mention has already been made o.
the fact that the Wilmington vessel
Narragansett owned by the Barry
Brothers, and commanded by Captain
R. shaw, of Wilmington, put into
Norfolk, Va, on Sunday, with a dis
sbled rudder.
Mr.. Homer Barry has received a
letter from the captain, in which it is
stated that after being in continuous
blows from the 4th to the 9th the rud ,
der stock was split from the tiller to
the upper brace, and the rudder from
one side to the other with crash,
without moving the tiller.
The letter says the weather COZ
tinued violent for two days and the
seas made continuous breaches in tn,
deck load. Some damage was done,
but all was secured except the rudder
several plans we're tried but all failed,
and things looked critical for q day or
two. "Finslly," says the captain, in
his letter, ~ hit upon a plan, which
proved success, and | think ofgetting
patent upon it. took some three
inch plank and made a case or box for
the rudder, that would slip over it.
With ropes on the bottom to hold it
there and guys ON each side to haul it
bayk an0 forth, we had, after four days.
continuous work, pretty Rood. steer
ing apparatus, but it was liable to get
out of order, and we had to renew our
ropes every day. While we we're rig
3 ng the rudder We drifed 200 miles
o sea-"
The letter is very interesting through
out, and tells in quite an entertaining
manner Of the narrow "sqape the Mar

years ago several Of our Maryland

about $4,000 subscribed and now
another effort is being made. The
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Balti-
