SECOND EDITION
MUST 90 TO THE REAR.
From the Dover Sentinel.

The Republican State Convention,
which was held in Dover last Thurs
day, has settled one thing: The fac
tionists and disorganizers in the Re-
publican party 60 to the rear The
party hereafter, with more vigorous
blood and principle which is higher
than mere Office, moves on to the ac-
complisEment of its ends.
We desired to see the late Conven-
tion entirely harmonious, but we can
not regret that the factional fights
precipitated in the Convention by the
Custom House clique were promptly,
vigorously and decisively met and re-
buked.
In reply to the above the DAILY Ne'cs
says
But our objections are to policies, mot
to men. We deem 1t an insult to New
Castle county that she was not allowed
to send the men of her choice, and an
| insult that the people of the county will
not be slow in resentng. Kent selected
the delegates of her choice; but, not con-
tent with that, must go the unreason-
able length, by operation Of the infam-
Gus unit rule, of naming the New Castle
and Sussex delegates.
Gentlemen of Kent, is not this rather
a remarkable assumption of authority?
Are the other counties in swaddling
| clothes? Must they be taken care OF
by you? To whom do you look for Re-
publican maiorlties. Was it not New
Castle and Sussex that elected MaJoI
Lofand to Congress in 1872? A Re-
publican majority in Kent is rdrd aui'
indeed, and yet Kent assumes to ap
| point delegates to the National conven
tiop, not only for herself but for both
the other counties. If the thing haC
been reversed, and the other two coun
ties had named the delegates for Kent
we think it likely that Mr.. Harrington
and Judge Fisher would have giveL
vent to some righteous indignation. We
can hardly think the editor OF the Senti
mel intended to go the length of brand
| ing the men who objected to this palpa.
| BILE injustice as factionists and disorganI'
zers. If so, the probabilities are thai
about nine-tenths of the party, in eithel
end of the State, will prefer to train UNI
der the banners of the disorganizers,w who
uphold the right, rather than to follow
the leaders, who cast the solid vote o
Kent in the convention.

THAT NOTE OF WARNING.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The fac
SMILES printed in the Herald, ON
Thursday, giving the celebrated note
of warning to Cadet Whitaker, and "a
specimen of the cadets writing, have
been carefully scrutinized by the War
Department officials with different
opinions resulting from the examina-
tion. The most careful examination,
however, was made to day by num-
Der of the expert government engrav-
ers, who, perhaps, are better capable
of judging of resemblances in different
styles of chirography than any other
class of experts, and their Judgment
was that the two notes were written
by the same person.
A number of cases were disposed Of
by the Mayor at the hearings yester-
day.

Alarm of Fire.

The alarm of fire yesterday after
noon about 3:45 O'Clock was caused
by the burning of barrel containing
a quantity of shavings, in the yard of
the Joseph Teas bolt and nut works,
corner Of Third and Church streets.
The fire was discovered by lady
residing ON Robinson street, who
informed officer Thomas, who was
coming along Third street, having in
charge prisoner, who he had arrest
ed on warrant.
The officer was in a dilemma at
first what to do, whether to proceed
with his prisoner or stop and en-
deavor to extinguish the flames.
Finally he concluded to put the fire
out, and to find where it was he had
to climb high fence. He took his
prisoner with him, and together they
put out the fire, and then the officer
marched his prisoner to the hall in
triumph.

Dover vs.. Milford.
from the Peninsular News.

The State Sentinel In commenting on
The growth of Dover claims it to be the
leading town on the Peninsula south of
New Castle. We admire the Sentinel for
sticking up for its own town and push
ing it into prominence, but the truth
compels us to take exceptions to its
Clam for Dover being the leading
town while Milford IS justly entitled to
that position. No one posted on the
matter can truthfully deny that Mil
lord is the largest and busiest town In
the State outside of Wilmington has
the handsomest women, the finest men,
the best band and the most s0ldierly
military company in the State. We
are willing to concede that Dover
stands second, but really Mr.. Sentinel
you'll have to back water on the claim
OF it's being the first.

The Berkshire County Bible Society of
Massachusetts, one of the Oldest and
most important of the auxiliaries of the
American Bible Society, at recent meet
ing recommended that the American BIZ
BILE Society should print and distribute
the revised version of the Scriptures as
soon as practicable. The reasons assign
ed are these:
'sThat the common English version of
the Scriptures, though in many respects
excellent is in other respects unworthy
ofits original, being in many places unin-
telligible, and in many more giving a
wrong sense, lacking uniform render
ing OF the same words in different pass
ages. and uniform spelling of proper
names, treating the poetry and prose ex-
actly alike in the translation, and divid-
ing the whole into verses without any
reference to the form of writing or the
requirements Of the sense, thus largely
robbing the Word of the beauty which
the Lord our God has put upon it; that
this version itself is nothing but revis-
ion of previous versions and revisions
running back to the time of John Wye
life, just five hundred years ago; that
there has been no revision or improve
ment Of the common version for two hun
dred and sixty-nine years since it first ap-
peared-that is before the Pilgrim Faith
ers landed at Plymouth, who themselves
used different version altogether; that
in this long interval of time older and
better Greek manuscripts of the books of
the New Testament have been discovered
than those out of which our version was
translated, that the knowledge Of the
Greek and Hebrew language has been
immeasurably augmented in the mean
time, and that the meaning of many Eng
lish words and phrases has greatly chang
ed in the two centuries and half. Also
that some of the best Christian scholars
in Great Britain and America, about one
hundred in all, mostly elergymen, repre-
senting all Christian denominations, have
now been engaged nearly ten years, in en-
tire harmony with each other, in careful
ly revising the English Scriptures on con-
ser' ative principles, changing nothing
except what needs to be changed in the
interests of sense or FORM"

The London correspondent of the
World writes: "The two oldest sons of
the Prince of Wales have actually been
tattooed on the nose with broad arrow.
They were serving on board the Bacch-
ante as midshipmen, and the mess on
board the Bacchante probably had little
difficulty in inducing Prince Albert Victor
and his brother George to allow them
selves TO be decorated with an arrow or
an anchor (for accounts vary as to the
real sign) upon their royal noses. The
captain of the ship and the officers will
find themselves in hot water, but neither
hot water nor anything else will wash out
the gunpowder and Indian ink marks
which disfgure the faces of the future
King of England and his brother. The
most eminent surgeons and doctors have
been consulted as to the possibility of OBJ
literating the tattoo-marks, but it is re-
ported that no hope has been held out in
any OF, those quarters"
