GS~ The Chesapeake and Delaware Peninsula,
comprising portions of the States of Maryland
Delaware and Virginia, contains square area Of
of six thousand miles, and measures about two
hundred miles by forty. Within this limited sur
face, and distant only few hours ride from Phil
adelphia, Wilmington, Baltimore and Washing
ton, are to be found the finest sporting and fish,
ing on the Atlantic coast. So abundantly has
this favored region been endowed by nature with
game of every description that 1t is worthy to be
called "a Paradise for Gunners and Anglers"
Such, indeed, is the title adopted for his book by
a writer whose work now lies before US. His
description of the Peninsula, and the advantages
it affords to sportsmen, carefully and accura-
tely written, while the excellent engravings and
mans with which his book is adorned add greatly
to its appearance and value.

@-In its report of the proceedings of the
Republican convention at Towsontown last Mon
day, the Baltimore american says "every men,
ton of Blaine's name was sufficient to create the
mildest enthusiasm" When the resolution was
read instructing the delegates to the State conven
ton for Mr.. Blaine, there was not the slightest
indication of approval from any part of the house,
and any one present will voueh for this. The
reading fthe resolution fell like wet blanket upon
the convention, and many persons were surprised
at the marked GOODNESS by which it was received.
1t may have been Blaine convention, but so far
as any outward demonstration was concerned it
was utterly devoid of enthusiasm. If there is no
more truth in the other reports which daily ap-
pear in the American as to the enthusiasm for
Blaine then there is in this particular one, then
indeed the enthusiasm for the "Plumed Knight
must be of the most doubtful character.

G-Mr. Lammot Dupont, who was killed re-
Gently by the explosion at ThOmpson's Point, is
controlling interest in the manufacture of nearly
all the high explosives that were made in the
United States and Canada, east Of the Rrocky
Mountains. Ten million pounds of these mate
rails were consumed in the country in 1882, the
RepannO COmpany's works at ThompsOn's Point
producing one-third of this amount He is cred
tied with having organized combination of all
the makers of high explosives. When negotiating
with the Panama Canal Company for the powder
to be used in that work he guaranteed to supply
twelve tons of Atlas powder daily, if that amount
were needed.

Ng- Hon. Robert 7. Lincoln, whose name has
been mentioned as a candidate for the Presidency,
and in nearly every combination in connection
with the Vice Presidency, says he is not candi-

part was called forth by the proposition of friend
to organize Lincoln club in Chicago. He wrote
the following letter to the Hon. Leonard SWett
who has just given it to the public through the
Chicago Tribune, who prefaces it with the remark
that he does so because be has been asked often
concerning Mr.. Lincoln's views of his own candi-

@-A great many people believe that clark
horse" will win 10 the Republican National con-
vention, and among these is named Senator
Hawley, of Connecticut. If it must be horse of
the color mentioned no stronger one could be put
up than Gen. Hawley. He is statesman with
a clean record and has warm place in the hearts
of the people. But no matter who that convention
dominates, the grand old Republican party will
see that he is triumphantly elected. This can be
nut down as a settled fact

NS-The New York Tribune says: "Rodney, u.
S. N, would like to have the Constitution amend
ed so that no citizen could own more than ten
million dollars worth of property. And he is
sending out innumerable postal cards containing
a proposed amendment to that effect. If Mr..
Rodney is afraid of owning more than ten millions
of dollars himself, he can easily give away his
surplus wealth without an amendment. AS for
the rest of the people, there are comparatively
few of them who are troubled that way, and when
they are they will manage to get along under the
present Constitution. Mr.. Rodney would save
some money ifhe would cease writing postal cards"

York met at Utica on Wednesday, and elected
delegates at-large to the National convention
who will 90 there to oppose the nomination of Mr..
Blaine. The convention, which was entirely har-
monious, adopted a strong platform, among the
resolutions being the following:

Arthur, whose administration, begun under cir

barrassment, has by its eminent prudence and
sagacity commended itself to the esteem of the
country, and % such receives the cordial acknowl

@g- The Cecil county Republican convention,
although controlled by the friends of Mr.. Blaine,
passed resolution strongly endorsing the admin

county convention appears to have had very
poor opinion of the President. 1t did not have a
word to say in his favor. But we suppose Mr..
Arthur will lose no sleep on that account.
