l we'll rememb er the abuse that was
heaped upon Daniel Webster by the wings
for remaining in President Tyler's cabi-
net For nearly two years he bore it all
wlth as much philosophy as he could mus
ter. In one Of his gloomy moments
very enthusiastic friend called to see
him.
"Mr. Webster" said his friend, "you
ought not to be gloomy about anything
your fame is made.''
"Fame," replied Mr.. Webster; land
much for fame! Let me give you strik-
ing illustration of this fact. I was travel
ing in railroad car a few years ago, and
it so happened that I was located
by the side of very old man. I soon
found that this old man was from my ma
tive town in New Hampshire. asked him
if he was acquainted with the Webster
family up there. He answered that he and
old Mr.. Webster in his lifetime were great
friends. He then went on to speak of the
| children. He said that Ezekiel was the
most eminent lawyer in New Hampshire,
and his sisters, calling each by her Christi
an name, were married to most excellent
men. l then inquired if there was not an
| other member of the family. He said he
| thought not. Was there not one, 1 asked
him, by the name of Daniel? Here the
old man put on his studying cap for few
| moments, and replied: 'Ob, I recollect
now. There was one by the name of Dan
| lei, but he went down to Boston, and l
have not heard of him since.'"

Superstitious Negroes.
lMllford News. J

An amusing thing, which well illustrates
the superstition and ignorance of some OF
our coiored people, occurred in the kitchen
Of the Milford Hotel on Wednesday night.
A lad had been playing few tunes on an old
fiddle and the others had been dancing to his
music In merry mood. When bed time ar
rived the boy hung his fiddle near window,
and all were in the act of retiring, when low
stains were heard to issue from the fiddle
which was untouched by human hands.
There was at once general stampede from
the house into the snow, and cries that the
fiddle was bewitched. One colored man
said It was the ghost Of Samuel Mason, who
was murdered few weeks since at Milton,
and another declared that he had recognized
the shade of his dead father. Finally the
brayest peered into the kitchen and heard
the fiddle still making the mysterious
sounds, and getting pole he knocked It
from the nail aud burned 1t, Just as our
Puritan fathers Of New England punished
witches. But none of the colorel people
would sleep 10 the house that night. 1t Is,
perhaps, unnecessary to add that current
of air played upon the strings of the
violin.

The Old and the New.

Tomorrow John W. Hall, Governor Of
robes he has SO worthily worn for the past
four years, aud resume his station as q
private citizen of the Commonwealth. He
has enjoyed the highest ofhcial
honor within the gift Of the people
Of his State, for while Congressmen and Sen
ators can be reelected as long as the people
desire to continue them in Office, the man
who is once elevated by the suffrages OF the
public to the GuberRatorial chair of Della
ware, is, by the provisions of the State
Constitution, forever after ineligible to this
office.
During his term of four years Governor
Hall has proved a careful and conscientious
Executive. Elected at time when vital
issues had no place In the campaign, and
pledged to nothing but a strict Observance
of the Constitution and a faithful enforce
ment Of the laws, he has given the people a
wise, though conservative admins
tration, satisfactory in all respects. His
appointments have proved unusually appro-
pirate, and his use Of the pardonlng power
has been tempered by a wise discretion and
based upon extenuating circumstances that
admitted OF no reasonable doubt OF the
wisdom Of his course. Beyond a doubt he
has proved model Governor, and he retires
from office with the sincere respect and
hearty good wishes of the vast majority of
his fellow citizens.
Tomorrow the new Governor, Charles G.
Stockley, will assume the official functions
OF his honored predecessor, and ss his ad-
ministration is looked forward TO as the be
its initial steps Will be regarded
with deep interest by all our
people. Unlike Governor Hall, he was
elected only after an excited political con-
test, in which the party whose standard he
carried pledged itself to specific and radical
reforms and Improvements In our system of
government that had at last been impera-
lively been demanded by the people. For the
first time in nearly thirty years, the recent
campaign In Delaware was fought almost
exclusively upon local issues, and the Dem
ocratic party pledged itself unequiyocally

ment Of the State school system, and TO

candidate of mis- party Governor Stockley
viii be expected to do all in his power to
secure fulfllment of these pledges, and
every cfort Of the new Executive will be
closely scanned by the waiting public.
That he will ably do his part In
the great work that now lies
before the State of Delaware, no one who
knows the man will for an instant doubt,
and with his earnest efforts seconded by an
intelligent, progressive Legislature, we may
expect 10 see new era open with the lnau-
