THEY SHOOT A SEAL IN THE CHRISTI
ANA AND ARE AFRAID OF IT.
A day or two ago a couple of our To-
cal spoi tsmen, named Cole and Davis,
went down the Chrlstiana creek in a
boat on cunning expedition. They
saw nothing of interest until they were
well down toward the Christiana light
house, when they noticed peculiar ami
NAL in the water distance ahead of
them. 1t was of large size, and seemed
brown in color. The spotsmen thought
it was dog at first. 1t was swimming
rapidly about with a rolling motion.
They cautiously approached, and when
within about forty feet OF it one of them
took deliberate aim and fired. The ami
NAL uttered a cry aud disappeared. In
moment it came TO the surface again.
The men could see that it was wounded,
and as it rolled about in the water they
noticed that the shot had torn one eye
out. The blood from the wound soon
colored the water. They did not care to
approach near the beast for fear OF GET
ting hurt, and deemed 1t best not to
shoot it again. As it did.not appear NOR
tally wounded they left it alone TO Its
suferings. From the description given
of the animal it is thought IL was a seal
1t is kuown that seals have come up the
Delaware as far as the mouth of the
ChristianA, and several have been killed
around Bombay Hook in winter time.
Only the other day one was caught and
killed on Rehoboth beach.

For IreIantt's Sufferers.
A GENERAL COLLECTION To BE TAKEN

A GENERAL COLLECTION To BE TAKEN
IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCHES.
Bishop Becker has issued the following
notice of collection to be taken in all
the Catholic Churches of this Diocese
for the benefit of the. famine-stricken in
Ireland
1t appears evident from unquestioned
sources that great distress exists in sew
eral districts Of Ireland, and that help
is less TO be expected from the English
government than from the people of the
United States whether of their own race,
or allied to the sufferers by innumerable
ties. 1t is not now, however, when fam
Inc has hold of the needy, time to dis
cuss the causes of such calamity, or why
this fertile country should so frequently
be forced to ask aims. Rather let us
give our aid generously and speedily "to
save those who PERISH" and afterwards
enlarge on the reason of such deslitution.
We order gen 5ral collection in all the
churches of the Diocese of Wilmington,
to be taken up on the first Sunday of
Lent, February 15th), or when two
churches are attended by one clergyman,
ss soon after as possible, ,and the proceeds
to be sent to us for proper transmission
and distribution. Uniting thus our aims,
with prayer and fasting, we shall have
entered into the spirit of the Church in
this holy season of Lent. "He that
hath mercy on the poor, lendeth to the
Lord; and He will repay him. Prov.
xix, II.
