OF that passage, he said that God gives
you the power to become christians by

to walk and use your limbs, etc.
He spoke OF the sinner clothed in sin,
telling him to look TO jesus for cleans

earnest appeal to the sinners, both
young and old, to come tonight and
give their hearts to God, telling them
that they can never find Jesus by sitting

nothing can be obtained without an

to-day, and were it not that there were
several capital cases to be tried the term
would be short one SO far at least as
the criminal docket is concerned. The
September term, helps amazingly in
shortening the November criminal
docket. There are three capital cases
which will no doubt be tried at this
court and which will occupy probably
two weeks of time. The case of William
Neal the man accused of committing
an outrage on white woman in Black
bird Hundred, will attract general at
tention as he has already been once
convicted aud sentenced to be hung,
but writ of error being taken ont and
argued before the Supreme court of the
United States, the trial was set aside
and of course the sentence of death went
with it. There will in all probability
be one or mere co!ored men on the Jury
to try Neal, as the absence Of such
jurymen on the jury that convicted
him was the cause of setting aside the
verdict of that jury. 1t is said that
Neal has new evidence to offer in his
new trial which will initiate in his IA
vor Anthony Higgins is the attorney
appointed by the Court to defend
Neal.
Another case of rather more than
usual interest is the trial of Morris Car
berry charged with the murder of Sam
uel Adams, a colored man at the Old
Ferry rolling mill sometime last May,
the circumstances of which are not yet
forgotten by the readers of the REpUB-
LICAN. The jury in the case disagreed
at the September term, and Carberry
will now be tried before new ury at
the present term Of court. Carberry is
defended by G. b. Lore, Esq.
The third case involving q capital
offence postponed from the September
court is that Of jeremiah Harrigan,
charged with the murder of Dennis
Shea at Hockessin about the beginning
Of September HarrigAn has employed
Levi G. Bird, Esq, to defend him, and
it is said his main plea will be that
Shea was an intrud-r aud had destroyed
the peace of his household.
The only other case Of a capital ma
turc is that of Lewis Hayden, who
struck William Shields last Sunday
evening with club. The latter was
behaving in boisterous and violent
when Hayden in the capacity
of night wa,chlnan, and acting to
protect himself aud the property of the
Front and Union Street Railway Com.
pany, struck the unlucky blow Hay
den $ case will be sent before the Grand
Jury this week, but it is probable that
the accused will be admitted to bail and
the case continued to the February
term. Anthony Higgins, Esq, is Hay
dem y counsel.
Besides these cases there will he
several MINOR cases for petty larceny
and assaults, which usually take up
time OF the court.
The civil docket shows the usual

A BEUTEIN HUMAN SHAPE.
A NenblAnce OF Man Brutal J
Beats an Assau Its his Wife.

| Last evening shortly after the clos'
of Police Court, message came through
the Telephone calling for assistance tt
come to Front and Poplar streets.
| Chief Of Police Maxwell hastily sum.
moncl all the officers that were about
and immedl latel y proceeded to the place
| upon arriving there he found that Viii.
| liam McElwee, a morocco dresser, liv.
| lng next door 10 the corner Of Poplar
street on Front had been on n drunk
for several days, aud early in the even.
ing had come home, and without any
provOCatiOn whatever commenced to
beat and i'll treat his wife.
As soon as McElwee came in the
house, he knocked his wife down, and
then kicked her all around the room,
and when she succeeded in getting
away from him, and ran ont into the
street, be followed her and continued
the beating.
He pulled her back into the house,
hitting or kicking her all the way, and
then dragged her into the yard, where
he continued his brutal assault, evident
ly with the intention OF beating her to
death.
BY this time his victims cries and
shrieks had alarmed the neighborhood,
and large crowd had assembled in the
street in front of the house. James
White, who keeps a saloon on the cor
ner, jumped over the fenco into Nc
Ewee's yard, where he was still engag-
ed in beating and kicking his wife, who
by this time was prostrate on the ground.
White told the wretch, that if he did
not desist, be would call the police, upon
which McElwee turued and cursed
him.
White Immediately started in search
of an officer, md met officer Chambers
at Front and Market streets, who upon
hearing the facts ol the case, ,telepi oned
to the Police Station for assistance, and
then went to McEwee's 5 house.
On the way he met Sergeant Cannon,
who accompanied him. When the
officers arrived they found Mrs. Nc.
Elwee laying upon a settee, terribly
beaten and bruised. Her head and face
were very much swollen both eyes
we're blac kened and almost closed, while
her face was almost beaten to a Jelly.
Her head was covered with small cuts
which were bleeding freely, and she
com mplaiped of her sides and stomach,
where, in his tiendish rage, he had in
tlicted brutal kicks.
Although the woman was suffering
terribly from her injuries, she not only
refused to give her consent, but actually
begged the officers not to arrest the
brute. She plead that she had been
living with him for over fifteen years,
and did not want him arrested now.
The women in the neighborho,d very
kindly attended to her injuries, and
did all in her power to make her com
Portable.

POkING ALONG,
work sn the Eleventh Street
Bridge Progressing ON tho SLOW
and Sure Prlnolpie,

A visit to the Eleventh street bridu,
on Saturday by a representative Of tn,
REPUBLICAN,, found the water At hicl
tide and some fifteen workmen waitlns
for 1t to lower. Some ten feet or 80 ID
height had been added to the pivot pier
which is Il solid abutment of stone, q
feet square, within the las. eight days
Besides this very little perceptible pro.
gress has been made.
| The west side abutment is finished
and the pier next to it is also finished
and ready for the iron work. The
east side abutment is also about finish
cd but very little ha, been done to the
pier next to 1t, except that the piles
have Seen driven, the foundation bolted
TO them and about two feet of stone
have beeu laid.
1t is no. expected that the piers will
bs finished ready for the iron work
much before Christmas and If the
weather IL unfayorable it will take
much longer.
The workmcn fosl keenly the criti-
cisms that are being made on account
OF the most Of them eingPhiladelphian
and on account of tn, slow progress
they have been making.
They say they have not deserved the
censure that ha1 been heaped upon
them. The tides they say are very ir-
regular and some of them not high
enough to float the fats from where the
preceding tids left them. They of
course know and care very little of the
errors made by the Levy Court and the
Edge Moor Iron Company, though un-
til they finish their work the Edge
Moor Company cannot put in the iron
work.
Nearly every body now admits that
the Levy Court did wrong in not let
ting the job out by contract to the low
est and most responsible bidder. There
seems to DO no excuse for this neglect
or rather refusal. According to tbs
published account In another paper it
seems that the Levy Court Committee
only askel one pirty;O build the bridge
and gave the contract to that party at
their own price.
The G rnmittee was no Judge of what
the bridge could be built for without
estimates from several bidders. 1t IS
the general IMPRESSION that the work |
could have been done for 81, 900 and |
allowed good margin for profit in
stead of S29, 800 the reputed contract
Price.
However thu whole affair has been a
oluuGer, and The great thing Low is to
,et the bridge finished at any price,
hat the manufactures, and thousands
# laborers, men and children may not
De put TO sucn long continued inco"-
renenCc and danger Of life and limb.
