THE FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS or MODERN

Tho author of this work presents critical
history of the terms and concep tions which
are of special interest in literary and philo.
sophie circles. The object is to furnish the
student a clear understanding of terms before
they are crystallized into the special and fixed
meanings. For instance, as to word that was
originally a term of the schools, by what steps Of
transition It proceeded from one meaning TO
another, until 1t finally took on n Specification
which was the opposite Of that which it
originally bore, or till two correlated terms
completely iutcrchanged their Specifications
| The author adopts the maximal remark of
Coeridge that "there are cases in which
more knowledge Of moro value may be con.
vcyod by tho history Of u word than by the
history OF campaign" The author has
limited himself to u few topics, fact which
adds especial value to lis instructions.

A REPUBLICAN BANQUET

The Young Mems Republican Club,
last nioht. had subscription banquet
at the clayton House, at which address
ss were made by Anthony Higgins, ESD,
Geo. w. Stone, and others. The cleo
tion being over, negroes we're not admitted
to the festive board and none were al
lowed in the room, except in the menial
capacity of votss.
Mr. Higgins speech was quite glow
ing, and dweit largely upon the great
assistance rendered by the Young Mems
Club during the csmps'gn. Some OF the
real workers of the parry, who do not
wear silk stockings and kid gloves
want to know if the Club had anything
to do with securing the largely increased
Republican majority in the Seventh

The parties to the affair are all

OFFICIAL FEES.
AN ITEM IN WHICH THERE ARE SOME
MIssTATEMENTs.

AN ITEM IN WHICH THERE ARE SOME
MIssTATEMENrs.
An item appeared in the Ne,os this
morning in regard to the business done
at the police station, and the amount of
fees received which IS calculated to mis-
lead the majority Of those who read 1t.
The item so far as it related TO fees is
correct, but the amount Of money collect
ed for one week is incorrect.
The fees OF perquistes received by the
Mayor and officers are established either
by State law or ordinance, and have been
Incorporation TOR years. They were charged
by Mayors under Republican rule, as
well as under Democratic and the officers
have no voice in the matter except that
they can remit their fees In any case they
may see proper.
Shat portion of the report in regard to
he amount Of business done is correct
so far as the total amount is concerned,
and persons might think that the total
amount had been paid over. This is
where the item is calculated to mislead.
Ii often happens that not one half of
hose who are brought before the Mayor
ayer pay a cent of fine or cost. In many
'aSeS Inc pTlsObel VIM ialip " Poy bbS
line and costs is kept loked up from forty
eight to sixty hours as required by law,
and then released or If II be case OF
assault and battery, or State ofense
is committee to New Castle. In such
case nothing is received. During the
week mentioned by the Ne,os about 50
was paid In.
In regard to the witness fees, they
arc always paid by the Chief when de-
manded, provided, however, that the
prisoner pays the costs, IN which the
witness fee is charged. 1t is not to be
presumed that the Chief or Mayor
either is going to pay the fees of four
or five witnesses out of their own
pockets and not be reimbursed. In
any case where the prisoner pays out
the witnesses can receive their fees by
applying to the Chief, who Is always
prompt in paying them. He has done
so in number of cases.
There is this much to be said about
the present Mayors administration -
1t has been one of the best, if not the
best, in this city for a number of years.
| The ordinances have been more fully
carried out, and there has been more
money collected and paid into the City
Treasury than years before, in fact
the receipts have been sufficient to pay
the salary of the Mayor, Chief of Po-
lice and three or four officers.

HOW HE ASSAULTED A CoNDUCToR,w WAS
ELECTED FROM TIKI TRAIN, AND GOT
ON AGAIN.
On the O'Clock freight aud p ssenger
train from New Castle asst evening were
some very rough, and disorderly charac-
ters few Of whom we're rather drunk.
One Of them, who seemed to be known
only by the title of ''Butchsr," having no
money, took n notion TO have free ride
aud though friend of red to pay his
fare he refused the kindly offer.
Conductor Layiield said The man
would have to get oil and accordi gly he
ordered the train to be stopped. This was
Just below Hare's Corner. The man
went out on the platform, and the Con
ductor stood behind him, TO see that he
| got of. AS the train slowed up, the Con-
luctor tried to push him off. Wm. G.,
Spruance, Esq, and several other pAssen-
gers, called upon the Conductor TO desist
and told the man not to get off until the
train stopped. Stll the Conductor tried
to push the unruly passenger from the
platform, which caused the latter to grow
very angry, and turning fiercely he struck
the conduct or vic ent blow over the
left eye.
A few seconds later the train came to
a stand still,and "Butcher" sprang to the
ground. Cursing the Conductor malig-
lantlg he picked up large stone and
would have hurled it at the object of his
wrath had not Mr. Spruance warned him
TO desist The train then moved of and
kind-hearted passenger leaned out OF
The window and handed "Butcher" thirty
cents. lie swung Oh the rear platform
re-entered the car, paid the thirty cents
to the Conductor and rode quietly tc
Wilmington.
Conductor Layfield proposes having
the man arrested for assault and battery.

To those who are nonplussed over

advise to read this and be made wise.
Three prominent Republicans and one
or two Democrats, were talking over
the election returns The other evening
in one of the down town stores, when
one of the former ventured the follow

field was elected because the Republi-
can party was the more pious of the
two factions, and that they, the Re-
publicans, had all been praying for
such result. OF course the laugh
went round, and well it might.
