Although for many years have be en-
a constant reader of the REPUBLICAN,
| think l can safely sly this is the first
communication from this place to your
paper. The drift of sentiment and trade
flows by certain laws Of affinity in a
southerly direction, and mostly to Bal.
timore. This has always been the case
and Is likely to so continue through the
lapse of years to come. 1t Is true o
railroad connects this section with the
north, but navigation, now and for
some time past, utilized by an energetic
steamboat man who has two good boats
alternating through the secular week
days, while sailing vessels, fleet and
capacious, ply with ordained and skill.
fully managed appointment to and
from Monumental City," have held,
aud will for years TO come, hold the
large preponderance Of trade and travel
III a sou,herly direction.
In the appearances of the town and
the moral status of the people the ad.
vance has been very marked through
the past dozen years. The place l.
new, modern and pretty. Nearly all
the old and Gelapidated buildings have
been torn down aud others erected in
their stead or he old ones have been
entirely transformed There local op-
ton has cloS ed the rum mills that had
curse the place and people through
time immemorial. 1t would De worth
Senator Bayard's while to visit this
place and witness for himself the vast
deal of substantial good that has already
accrued from local option to this peo-
pile. While at the same time there is
not by far the same amount OF business
done here as when intoxicating drink
was sold, the p &C. " IS imp-o7el rapid.
ly and steadily, and the people are
' IDENTIFY far happier.
The declension in trade is moi, how
ev r, result Of local option. The sale
o s'rong drink never adds to the ma,
tional prosperity of place. The
triumph of intemperance in the late
elections in many OF our
sister cities of the West does not in any
wise mean the material growth of those
cities. Rather the contrary. And the
loss of the legalizsd liquor traffic in this
place has not brought any declension
in business, outside of its own line OF
trade; but the upspringing Of railroad
stations above and below us, and espe.
cially Ridgely, which is becoming quite
u business centre, together with many
other business centres in other direc
lions, have diverted much of the trade
which used TO drift hereward. A sum-
ming of business in and around our
town proves wonderful enlargement.

Ives D. Andrews.

Many will be pained to learn of the death of this young man, whosa funeral occurred at his late home on the corner of High and Wall streets Tuesday afternoon at 2:30. He died Sabbath morning, Jan. l. Many New Haven people remember his father, MT. Franklin Andrews, who for years carried on a successful business of painting and house decorating, having an office on Chapel street, near the old Park House.
 Young Andrews, who was valuable car penter and builder, fell from house roof two years ago and received severe injuries. AS result the disease of consumption was developed, and for several months he has been steadily failing. An older brother died of the same disease last April The death of Ives leaves but one child of the family-a daughter. The funeral was numerously at tended by relatives and sympathizing friends, the services being conducted by Rev. J. s. Samson of the Calvary Baptist church.

 After the close of the Aldermen's meeting last evening the COURIER reporter stood in the Aldermen's chamber talking with Colonel Healy, the efficient inspector of lamps, when Alderman Frank McHugh approached and the following conversation passed between him and the Colonel.
 McHugh-I understand, Colonel, that you got the Mayor to leave my name off the Lamp committee Now I want you to un- derstand that will fix you for it before my term expires.
 Colonel Healy-I don't think you know | what you are talking about. In any event you cannot scare me and I don't think it gentlemanly for you to come to me in this public manner and make such an assertion.
 McHugh-All right, you understand that I will fix you.
 Colonel Healy-Do your worst, Frank. I l don't fear you so long as I do my duty. Conversation of a similar character was carried on in the ante-room of the Alder mems chamber, but no blood was shed and the gallant Colonel would appear to have the inside track. It is stated that Alderman Me Hugh was very anxious to get on the Lamp committee, and that if he had succeeded he
 would have used his best endeavors to ''bounce'' the Colonel. It appears to be a personal matter between the Alderman and Inspector.
