THE OLD BRIDGE.
The Levy Court Inspects the Third
street Bridge.

Pursuant TO adjournment the mem
bers of the Levy Court met at Third
street bridge at O'Clock Tuesday after
noon, where they ere Joined by George
q. Lobdell, Philip Quigley, Enoch
Moore, Jr., b. +. Townsend and County
engineer A. W. Barber. The bridge
was thoroughly inspected and found in
II very bad condition, the mainstays
being SO much rotted away that it was
easy to push pieces out OF them.
IL was also noticed that when heavy
team passes over the draw the entire
structure swings to and tro. Messrs.
Lohdel and Barber thought the sooner
the bridge was torn down and replaced
with new one the better, but EnOch
Moore, Jr., said that in his opinion it
could be repaired so that 1t would last
for some time Mr.. Mackey thought it
would be better to repair it. and Philip
Quigley offered to pat it in complete
order and warrant IL for seven years
for 5000.
A ter some further discussion the
members returned to the Court House,
and although the general opinion
seemed to be tlIat the old bridge should
he torn down, it does not seem probable
that any action should be taken this
year. The old bridge is fast going TO
decay, and it seems folly to spend any
more money in repairs. 1t is the last
of the old unsightly wooden bridges on
the Christiana, and the sooner it is torn
down and replaced with substantial
iron structure, like that al Market
street, the better.

The meetings at the second Baptist
church are still in progress. and last
evening the lecture room was packed.
The Reg. II. B. w harton, who has
been conducting the meetings for seve-
ra! weeks, preached a plain and prac-
teal, but forcible sermon, from the. 9Th
verse of the 10th chapter of Paul 5
Epistle to Romans That if thou
shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart
that God hath raised him from the
dead, thod shalt be saved" At the
close of the sermon several rosefor pray
ers and a number of requests we're made
for the prayers OF the church in behalf
of friends. A letter that had been re-
coived by the Rev. Mr.. Wharton from
IA lady asking that prayers should be-
offered lor ber husband was read /;
also a noIe " requesting prayer for AN. III.
ber of the church who is now sick.
There will be services every evening
this week, and a cordial invitation is
extended to all TO attend.

A Coming Event.

Professor A. S. Webster, Whining
toms popular dancing master, is per-
fecting arrangements for giving bril-
liant closing entertainment OF his dane
ing schools on the evening of the 9th of
May The affair will be on grand
scale and will take place in the aud to-
rum of the Grand Opera House. The
false floor will be used for the occasion,
and the program will consist chiefly of

tion of the public patronage by giving

will take place, which will be rare
treat to those who enjoy watch
ing the little ones trip the light tantas

Railroad Matters.

A despatch from the City of Mexico
says the law regulating the tax on the
railroad tickets and documents has moi
yet been published, bnt it is understood
that the rate will be two cents on every
twenty dollars or fraction thereof, in
stead of one, as now This is the only
tax levied on railroads.
A despatch from Montreal says the
Grand Trunk Railway authorities have
accepted tenders from Pennsy lvania
and Ohio coal owners for a supply of
800, 900 tons for the current year. The
saving of the company by the lower
rates will be $3.50, 900 as compared with

About 1. 80 o'clock this morning Off
Ger Nickars saw strange man in the
Office of the Delaware Railroad Com
pany, very busy arranging the books
and other things. The officer asked him
what he was doing there, and not re-
ceiving a satisfactory answer took him
to the hall. Upon searching him a
through ticket from Baltimore - New
York was found in his pocket, and an
order from the captain ofa vessel for
his admission into IL hospital.
His appearance denotes that he is a
scafaring man, and from the answers
he gave to the questions addressed to
him, it is evident that he is not right in
his mind he was detained at the hall,
where he had good sleep and seemed
much improved, until this morning,
when he was placed on the lL53 train
and started for New York.
