Prince Leopold in the Convention.

Prince Leopold of England, with his suite.
appeared on the convention platform FRIDAY
to look upon the American scheme for Pres
ident. making He has the sleepy Guelph
look, but his eyes lightened up with keen in
terest, as they gazed on the vast convention,
the immense audience and the floating ban
ners. When Prince Conkling came in, erect
naughty. with a conspicuous Grant badge on
his left breast, the British prince, who was
scribbling of an autograph, looked up star
tied BY the burst of applause which fell on
his ear. OF the two, the New York prince
was the prouder. He was not conscious of
the presence of the royal blood. Pretty soon
another burst of applause greeted Little Phil
Sheridan, who came and took a seat by Prince
Leopold All this was a new sensation for
the scion Of the house Of Hanover. The prince
is about 81 years old, is rather small in stat
ure, not more than ) feet 5 feet in height,
very slender and animated in his movements,
with slight stoop forward when he walks.
He looks sminently like an Englishman and
bears the marks of gentility on his face and
manner. His eye is blue, his moustache d.
mnutive and his features are like those of the
family. His nose is slightly squiline and his
mouth small. He was dressed in a delicate
light gray and almost lavender small checked
suit. The coat is a double breasted jacket,
buttoncd high, with button hole bouquet on
the lapel; his necksie, a polka-dotted ma
room, ornamented with small gold pin; his
collar, q genuine English Piccadilly; his hat,
a low-crowned Derby. In his right hand he
carried slender cane, and on the fingers of
his left hand when he stroked his moustache
we're observed number Of gold rings en-
bossed, jeweled and enamelled.
Forty per cent. of the Chinese Of San

Thu Irish citizens have done them
selves great honor in foregoing tb'
pleasures of the usual st. Patrick 5 day
parade throughout the country, and in
stead have contributed the cost OF il
to swell the large amount of money al
ready raised for the relief Of their suf.
feripg brethren across the water. II
involved some considerable self denial
for Irishmen to give up even for the
time beiag their old time honored
method Of celebrating the day of their
patron saint, but there was such an
obvious propriety this year, in turning
their usual expenditures into the form
of q relief for the starving people OF
ireland, that it seems to have appealed
very generally to their good sense and
good feeling to couvert St. Patrick's day
into festival Of practical bentfcsnce.
All our exchanges from the principal
cities OF the Union bring us the news
that the warm, generous hearts and
minds of Irishmen were turned not SO
much to the glories as to the distresses
Of the Old Country. Here and there we
hear of some noisy demagogues having
seized the OCCASION 10 exhibit them
selves in untimely political Trades, but
the general drift of the day was one of
genuine practical sympathy for the sad
suffering Of the starving masses on old
Krin's green Isle. which did honor to
Irish hearts that felt for Irish suffer-
ings, and Irish hands that helped to
feed and closhe their famine stricken
relations and friends on the other side
of the Atlantic. We do not believe the |
Irish will feel any worse for not having
celebrated ths birth day of their patron
saint in the usual uproarious manAer
that has marked it in some of our larger
cities, and now having had one real
good practical observance of the day
We do not think the day would suffer
any more than our Irish friends if the
new plan was continued.

MILL CREEK Hundred has a faithful
HONEST assessor in Lemuel Graves
and thong b there are honest Democrat
10 assessors we cannot refrain from
stating that Mr.. Graves is a stalwart
Republican. During the whole session
OF the Levy Court there has been but
one apI licant from that Hundred,
showing that Mr.. Graves has made
every effort to assess every body entitled
no matter whether they were Demo
Gratis or Republicans. Had the asses
sors all done their duty like Mr.. Graves
the Levy Corrt would net have be, n
troubled IS it his been with hundreds
OF d.strarchi'el persons clamoring to
be placed upoA the assessment. A full
assessment has also been made in
Brandywine, Christiana, Red Lion,
White Clay Creek and Pencader Hun
dreds. Christiaua and Red Lion has
Republican assessors and the others
Democrats. The glazing culpability of
the assessor Of st. Georges Hundred is
shown in two hundred persons being
left unassessed. OF Wilmington we

special effort should be made by
our citizens who favor the removal Of
the almshouse to a convenient location
in the country, to induce the Trustees
Of the Poor at their meeting on the Both
inst, to reconsider the resolution to erect
an addition to the Insane Department.
1t is true that proposals have already
been issued for the work, but the com.
mittee have reserved the right to reject
any or all bids, and the Trustees can
relieve them from all responsibility in
the matter if public opinion shall be
expressed in such way that its mean
ing cannot be mistaken. There are
various reasons why the almshouse and
its adjuActs Should be removed. Build
lngs OF their character are calculated to
retard improvement. Persons desiring
attractive residences do not wish to To-
cate adjoining them. The fear of infec-
tious or contagious diseases has a bad
effect uTon their minds, and conse-
quently improvement in that section
will be comparatively slow. Beside the
land ia becoming very valuable, and as
the title to the same is indisputable, it
could be sold fer such sum OF menev
as will purchase farm Of 100 acres and
erect suitable buildings for the accom-
mediation Of the paupers, as we'll as the
insane and afflicted. This is a very
consideration, and the Trus-
tees should in Difference to public opin-
ion, delay action for few weeks if they
10 net at present resolve to wholly
abandon tbs erection of the new build
ing. If they will lut look ahead few
years they will see the propriety of
his suggestion. In another decade Our
city will be greatly enlarged, and all
desirable sites for residences will be in
demand. 1t is not wise or expedient to
DO anything to check I opulation or to
prevent enterprise. Sound policy re-
lures the removal Of all obstacles TO

rne FIxht for KelloxK,s seat.


II looks new as If the attempt Of Sem
ator Hill to unseat Senator Kellogg
| would prove about as great failure as
the attempt 10 pass bill to replace
Fitz John Porter in the army with back
pay amounting to $4,000. The thing
is sach bare faced fraud, that it is
said that there a. Q NO less than six or
Eight Democratic Senators who will
vote against tatiog up the case for
consideration. This pr actically defeats
the case as it will prevent any action
being taken. Even should the bill be
taken up for consideration, there is DO
chance of its passage as 1t will be
fought at every stage by such giant
lintellects as Senator David Davis and
| s ,nator E lmunds. Senator Davis when
Kellogg was admitted voted against
him, but being admitted upon the
merits of his case something quite diff
ferent from the manner in which But
lsy, the Hamburg Ellenton butcher,
was admitted, he maintains that the
Senate has no power to reopen the case
and that Senator Kellogg is as legally
entitled to the seat he now holdv as any
member of the Senate. The motives
for the attempt to Gust Mr.. Kellogg are
perfectly understood. 1t is the desire
Of the Democrats to retain control Of
the Senate, which under the operations
of continual Republican victories, is
gradually and surely slipping from
their hands. They foresee that the
balance of political power in the Senate
in 1881 will be lodged in the hands of
David Davis of Illinois, who, in spite
of his effort to be Democrat, sometimes
evidences symptoms Of independence
that he cannot be fully trusted to up
hold everything with a Demo- ratio
label upon it. 1t is to guard against
this result, or in other words to defeat
the will Of the people which is being
constantly more plainly expressed for
he restoration of Republican major
ty, that the Democrats have set up
heir monstrous claims. Senator Hill ;
With an insulting exhibition of planta-
ion manners, is attempting by brute
orce to control majority sufficient to
AIRY out the purposes Of the rebel
'rigadiers. Knowing the abject servil- ,
ty of the Northern Democratic Senat
le counts on the cooperation Of all, 5
10 matter how high tone of impair S
iality and independence some Of them )
nay assume at times when no direct S
artisan interest is at stake. 1t is for z
innate for the Republican party and the 8
ountry at large, that no such mischiev- s
US plot can be carried to a successful s
Inflammation without full exposure 3
its nature and motives and its con- S
'quences by such men as Davis and 8
dmunds. The notorious gag-rule 8
nown in the House as the previous $
uestion, does not exist in the Senate s
nd the majority cannot stop the mou tbs 9
the minority. The Democrats under s.
lie lash of Senator Hills slave whip s,
ay succeed in robbing Senator Kel- =
go Of his seat, but they will do so at g
10 peril of arousing public indigna- s.
On and distrust which will overwhelm q q
