TO those who must bear them. The salaries are

SATURDAY NIGHT SIGHTS AT LApIDUM.-A
correspondent Of the Wilmington Necs gives a
graphic picture Of Saturday night sights at La
pidum, since the Local Option law went into
effect in Cecil county. At twilight one boat af-
ter another shoots out from the Cecil shore, un-
til there are perhaps dozen row boats in all,
their prows turned towards Lapidum. The
NerS adds;
On Saturday night, when The boats came
ashore, the men nj once went TO the barroOm.-
The plan generally adopted is to drink US much
us you can, and take home us much as YOU can
carry for Sunday use. Every man had Ut least
two bottles to be filled some had three. MANY
jugs. One man had three pint bottles and four
half pints, and all these were filled and carried
back across the river. As it grew darker the
boats came faster. The crowd got drunken, moi
ser and bigger all the time. Some want to fight,
some 10 sing but most are too drunk to do
much Of anything but make themselves Il nui-
sance TO the neighbors. The landlady has to

than kept busy pouring out the drinks The
landlndy says she has been in business for near
ly twenty years, but she never saw so much
whiskey "juggcd" in single night before in
all her life. Upto midnight the boats keep com
ing in, and steady tide ofmen sets tavern ward

the drunken rows more frequent, and so, with
silly songs, with oaths or stupid insensibility

CHURCH NEWS.
Rev. Jesse Taylor, an eXMethodiSt minister,
and who once Travelled this circuit, preached at
Spesulia p. l.. Church, last Sunday. The con.
grcgation talk of calling him to the pastorate
of their church.
Rev. J. w. Steele preached at the Southern
Methodist church, last Sunday night, on the
Revised New Testament. There was large
congregation present. Mr.. Steele thought the
revision was an epoch in the worlds history,
and that in all probability we were carried back
nearer the original, but he did not think any
man, whatever might be his scholarly attain
mcnts, could properly EXPRESS his opinion, for
or against the work, on so short acquaintance
with it; that to properly criticize ii was the
work Of years.

The indications from Albany are that
Messrs Conkling and Platt will not be re.
elected to the United States Senate. The
Conklng men are very much dispirited, while
the friends of the administration, or "half-
breeds" as the stalwart Republicans call them,
are correspondingly elated. The Democrats
have nominated John c. Jacobs and Francis
Herman, and do not propose to barter with
either Republican faction. A deadlock is
probable, which would relegate the question
to the people themselves, who will pass upon
it next fall, when new Legislature will be
elected. Balloting began on Tuesday and
has continued every day since, without any

Gen. Malone is evidently not so import
ant parsonage now as he was when he
held the balance of power in the Senate, and
traded with the Republicans. At the town
elections in Virginia, last Thursday, the con-
tests were sharp between the Democrats and
Mahone's party of Readjusters, and the latter
were nearly everywhere defeated. A cartoon
in Puck of last week well illustrates his posi-
ton. Malone is represented as standing UNI
easily upon narrow bridge, which has
parted behind and before him, inducing him
to exclaim, ms he is said really to have done ::
