A "SUssEx TEACHER" in the Seaford
Jader calls our structures on the complaints
and purposes of Sussex teachers in ques-
ton, and says we do not "know whereof
we speak" We will let him make his
own statement and take it forgranted that
it is correct. 1t is this:
Outside of two or three teachers who
have failed to get certificates on account
Of immortality, there is not teacher in
Sussex who would favor the repeal of the
present law; and the Superintendent when
asking for reappointment was endorsed
by eleven-twelfths of the Sussex teachers
The present school law had its inception
i'll this county, and to Sussex Represen-
tative belongs the honor of working the
bill through the General Assembly"
We remembered that there had been
on several occasion complaints from that
county (when there had not been from
the others and on this occasion there
being howl from two or three paper:
simultaneously, we naturally concluded
that Sussex was in state of eruption
II it was the froth of one or two " pro
vincils who failed to get certificates be
cause of immortality as is alleged, thu
rest of the teachers would be doing th,
reputation of the county a service b,
putting their foot on them.

THE question of an extension of the
Delaware Railroad direct from Dover
through Frederick, Milford, Miltop, &c,
to Lewes is agitating those towns. aud
from the fact that a committee of direc-
tors was appointed to confer with the
people through whose lands it would pass,
it looks as if it were in serious contem-
plation. But, it rests with the people
If there should be heavy or land damages
at all claimed, it may prove an obstacle
that the railroad will not overcome. On
the other hand the people havetheir side
of the case to consider, and want to know
whether the new road can be relied OH as
aregularline to convey peaches and passen-
GERS. Frederick and Milton will be most
benefited and are ready to make any and
all concessions, but Milford and Lewes
already have established and we'll regu-
lated railroad facilities in the Junction &
Breakwater r. r., and may not be so
ready to abandone their interest in one in
which large investments were made for
another that will call for additional sacrifi-
ces and may not give commensurate adj
vantages. Topersons in quest of the sea-
side the new road will prove great adj
vantage and will meet with hearty en-
dorsement out of Sussex county.

FANLY REUNIoN-Mr. James NJ. Jones |

Tley left here 43 years ago when the |

for the "far West" the frontier then being

then was in covered wagons requiring a
period of a month or more in reaching
their destination. The immigrants found
getting ahead" life of labor and toll, but
they have succeeded in getting a com
potency for the comforts Of advanced
years. This is the second time since they
first left here that they have been East to

is usually called, and sister, Mrs. Nelson.
They have also been fortunate in raising

RAILROAD WAYs-.The railroads have their
way Of doing business, and do it. Last
week business firm of this town had a
horse team shipped from Cardova Uia
Clayton on the d. & G. railway. Tue usual
weight on such vehicles, 1900 lbs, was
charged in the manifest, on which the
freight was paid. subsequently the auditor
directed the agent to manifest $50 lbs. ad.
dItlonal, with an EXTRA freight bill for this
| ~ a..
firm to see how near the railroad figures
came to a proper charge, weighed the
wagon and found the actual weight to be
6lj tbs.-S85 less than the weight already
paid for, and 1885 less than on which
freight has been demanded.
The railroads have a right TO charge
what they please, but as the people are the
. patrons, it is not policy to make them fee
that such charges are arbitrary and ex
. horbitant. The people freL when they are
, paying a fair and unfair demaRd, and

EUROPE is in pitiable state Through
out its length and breadth it is under
going in addition to its short crops the
severest winter with which it has been
visited for nearly a century. In Paris
the streets were blockaded for two weeks
with snow of such a depth that locomO-
ton was impeded, and several of the
theaters closed their doors. The cold
was so intense that several persons were
frozen to death in the streets. The pub
lie hospitals having been filled to over
flowing, temporary ones were erected
The Chambers voted S5OO,OOO for the
relief of the poor. In Italy the snow fell
in such masses that it crushed in the roof
of the Central railway depot at Milan.
At Rome it showed three days without
intermission, and heavy SHOWS fell in
Naples and even in Sicily. In ireland,
Silesia, and many parts of Italy people are
reduced to the verge of starvation by the
failure of the crops and their inability to
obtain the means of existence from the
want of employment. Immense military
ornaments are crushing the populations
beneath an overwhelming load of taxes,
and discomfort is everywhere increasing,
while the hatred of the poorer to the
richer classes is growing in intensity

TIE MAINE EMBRoGHo.-Smce our last
the excitement over the political situation
n Maine has continued from day to day
with no prospect of speedy end-the
Fusionists seeming bent on perpetrating
their fraud and their opponents equally
determined to thwart their efforts. Inc
Republicans and several Fusionists to
whom Garcelon had given certlhcateS
have persistently remained away, thus
causing a deadlock in the House Tor
want of quorum. Garcelons term OK
rired or Wednesday, and they were
several days without a Governor Gen
Chamberlain taking in charge the peace
Of the State. On Saturday, Speaker
Tambson of the Senate concluded he was
entitled to the Office and took the oath,
Int Gen. Chamberlain does not recoS-
Mise him as legally elected. On Monday
night the Republicans captured both
Houses. elected their officers, &c. greatly
TO the surprise of the Fusionists. How
it was done is thus summarized:
The Republican members Of the Legis-
lature. including those whom Governor
Garcelon counted out, proceeded to the
State House, and by species OF peaceful
revolution organized a Legislature. Eight
cen Senators were present, making
ouorum-all of them, let it be remember
ed. men whom the people Of Maine elect
ed. and who hold, morally, an absolute
title to their seats. A president Of the
body was elected, and the proceedings o.
the fraudulent Fusionist Senate were thus
ignored from the beginning. The count
ed -out Senator from Lincoln county was
declared elected on the face Of the returns
making the total number Of Senator
nineteen the number in full Senate l
thirtv-one. Then another proof wa
afforded of the willingness ofthe detraude'
citizens to submit their claims to the decl
sion of the courts. A resolution wa
adopted appointing committee to con
slider whether the Senate should call upo
the Justices of the Supreme Court to
their opinion of the legality Of this Oh
ranization. The same process was re
peated in the House, a Speaker electe
and similar resolution adopted TIL
duplication of Legislatures complexities
situation already complicated by dupl
cation of executives. President LamsoI
of the Fusionist Senate, fulfilled on MOI
day his declared intention of assumin
the office of acting Governor. Gener
Chamberlain, who has been acting vi
tually as Governor since Governor Care
!on's retirement, meets this assumptlc
with the announcement that he will r
cognize no one as Governor who is ele
ted by the fraudulent Fusionist Legisl
ture, and with a proclamation warnir
the militia not to obey the orders Of al
commander but himself Mr.. Hale
pledge, given in the House, that the r
publicans will obey the decision of t
>upreme Court, shows that this step b
been taken in law-abiding spirit, al
disarns criticism. Should the decision
the Courts be favorable, the Fusion
Legislature must disappear like dew
torc the sun.
