Efforts to Increase she Chinese
Exodus.

There are about 5000 Cinnamon in
New York and vincinity at present, and
it is said to be likely that 5000 will be
brought East to engage in various
labors. 1t appears that Mrs. Sargent
and Mrs. Matthew Wilson, whose
cousin is the wife of Yung Wing, Vice
Consul for China at Washington, are
about to engage actively in a move to
bring the Chinese East, particularly to
New York and Philadelphia. Mrs. Sar-
gent says that when the present limited
exodus of Chinese from San Francisco
is accelerated by the extra inducements
to BE- offered, the Mongolians will
swarm in. She intends, with the as
sistapcs of her friends, to see what can
BE- done with the manufacturers for
extensive employment of Chinese.

Unfortunate voucher,


Mr.. George Whitfield, the genisl
landlord of the Gilpiu House, New
Castle, not only knows how to keep a
first class hotel and make the best Of
oyster pies, but besides he is warm
and earnest Democrat. The crowds of
Republicans coming from Wilmington
over to New Castle to get assessed by
the Levy Court, has its influence upon
friend Whitfeld's Democratic nature,
therefore he is not to be blamed for feel
ing some misgivings for the future wei.
fare Of his party, and his great anxiety
to get all Democrats who may drop in
or about the Gilpin House assessed so
that there might be a respectable off
set to the large number of Republicans
getting assessed. Our friend Whitfield
however is not very fortunate as a
voucher, not that he is not one of the
most substantial free-holders in the
county, but because his cases are bad
ones. On Wednesday Mr.. Whitfield
came Into the Levy Court with his
friend John Hayes, and handed his
voucher affidavit to President Bright.
Mr.. Silver being temporarily in the
chair, Mr.. Bright moved that the name
be placed upon the assessment and that
he be assessed with poll tax of 5000
and $500 for stock. An examination
resulted in finding that Mr.. Hayes was
already assessed with poll tax of 5000
Nothing remained therefore than for
Mr.. Bright to withdraw the application,
but he could not reasonably do so with
out adding $500 more to Mr.. Hayes
assessment. This being done Mr.. Hayes
and his voucher, Mr.. Whitfield, de-
parted with no addition to the list of
Democratic voters but with an addition
of $500 more taxable property to the
county at the expense OF Mr. Hayes.
Mr.. Whitfield not discouraged at this
result, came into Court yesterday again
as a voucher for James StoOpes from
Blackbird Hundred. A look through
the assessment of Blackbird by MIR.
Wells, revealed the fact that Mr..
Stoopes' name was already IN the as
sessment, and Mr.. Whitfield again de-
parted disappointed man. If Mr..
Whitfield intends to vcuch for any
more he had better search the ASSESS
ment first before doing so.

Readings ana RecitGffORs at tbe
opera house last Evening By
Prof. Crabb ana James Murphy.
The Opera House lecture room last
evening was half filled by persons who
desired to test the 0ratorical powers OF
Prof. James II. Crabb and Prof. James
F. Murphy. The readings and recita-
tions with but one or two exceptions
were excsllently delivered. In the
first reading by Mr.. Crabb of a selection
entitled "Sparticus to the Gladistors
at Capua" the professor read in too
loud voice for such q small room but
in the other readings the habit was not
repeated. "My new Patayatus," a
Dublin street scene was we'll recitsd by
James F. Murphy. Professor Crabb
next read "The Vagabonds" in very
nice manner. Mr.. James r. Murphy
then recited "Sheridan's Ride"
Ids and Mollis Roberts sung "Star
Of the Twilight" and in return for the
prolonged encore sung "Don't sell my
father rum" A piece entitled "The sim
pie Story Of George Washington" was
read by Prof. Crabb and was loudly
applaudsd. The tone Of voice with
which the reader personated the small
boy, however, sounded very unnatual.
In response to the encore the professor
read the "Yankee in Love-" which he
was requested to do earlier in the
evening. James F. Murphy next re
cited "Shamus O'Brian." Likewise
this speaker in endeavoring to mimic a
person spoke in a very affected tone.
A quartette consisting of Ida and
Mollie Roberts and Lena and Tillie
Blizzard, sang the "Mermaid's Song"
Prof. Crabb read "The Brides of Ender-
ly," two scenes from Rip Van
Winkle," and "The Old Blind Darkey
on the Mississippi, and was loudly ap-
plauded. James +. Murphey recited
in a very good manner "Farm Yard
Song" "Scenes from the School for
Scandal" and "Mark Antony's Grafton
overt the Dead Body of Cmsar." A
quartetts consisting Of May Taggart,
Ida Roberts, and Lena and Tillie Biz
zard, sang "Buried in the Snow"
