An Evenings Entertainment.

A number of gentlemen assembled in
the parlors of the Delaware House, on
Wednesday evening last to pay their
respects to Mr.. NJ. ). Wagner who has
been in this town for the past two
weeks, representing Il Western nur-
sery, and in the meantime giving even
ing entertainments on the HarmOnica.
which instrument he is an exDert in
handling. At about 9 P. NJ. the com
pany assembled, and with VIM. Grieves
at the piano, assisted by Walter r.
Massey on the guitar, +. Thomas and
u. +. Brown ViOlinists, and Mr.. War
ner on the harmOnica, rendered some
very fine music, interspersed with
several vocal solos by Mr.. Edward
Thomas in the meantime as Mr..
Wagner was taken entirely by surprise.
his right bower, Mr.. George Coulson
OF Troy, Ohio, took his place in read
ing the following poem land at the call
OF each ones name they were to rise to
their feet or pay forfeit:
My friends am happy to meet you.
For il is with JOY greet you:
Though your intentions didn't at all suruise
] was not looking for YOU
To bid me this kind adieu
| certainly have got a real surprise
But mean to take il 'aiSy-
For here is Sheriff Lacey.
And the Fowers have caught me in this tran.
But while JetiersOn's around
Well try to do it Brown.
Though we're in the WildS among the Graves md
Cats
So now Tam at your Beck and call
And II there's any more down the Hill and Cum
minIgs
Help me Thomas, Massey, Oh!
If we don't play Boccacio
And have the kind of time they call a hummiDp
In the abSenSe Of the ladies
We will call on Smiths and Davis
To join us while we have a little fun;
Now We'll open the ball
BY closing the roll call
And play tun or too for Brother Stevenson.
In a few minutes afterwards the
company feasted on cake and cream.
and dispersed, all acknowledging they
were glad they were living. Messrs.
Wagner and Massey then serenaded
a number of private residences into
the wee small hours.

SENATOR BAYARD is so used to get
ting nothing but praise from the pap
ers, especially the metropolitan Jour
nails of New York, that the snubbing
given the other day by the New York
Herald must have been both a surprise
and a shock, as that paper has hereto
fore been especially eulOgistic of him.
The Herald seems to be published in
the interest of foreign nations and
shipping, and because Mr.. Bayard did
not enthusiastically approve of the
new commercial treaties, said (" We
advise Mr.. Cleveland to get some more
rapid thinkers than Mr.. Bayard about
him. Events will not wait for Mr..
Bayard, good man that he is"
1t seems that Mr.. Bayard, in CONVEX
satiOn about the commercial treaties,
raised the natural objection that they
involved many new questions and an
entire change of National policy, as
well as a radical change in the system
of taxation, and large increase of ex-
penditure. Moreover, they have been
emptied upon the Senate just at the
close of Presidential term with hard
ly two months time for their consider
alton before the session of Congress
must terminate. 1t seemed to him
that there was hardly time for the con-
sideratiOn which such treaties deman-
ded, and that action upon them prior
to the Inauguration of the President re-
Gently elected would place the admin
istration in a difficult position. The
position of Mr.. Bayard will commend
itself to the people for its statesmanlike
prudence whatever may be the opin-
ion of the Herald

The Navigation of Duck Creek

The Navigation of Duck Creek.

large commercial trade, and now has
conveyed through its waters merchan-
disc annually to the amount of between
three and four millions dollars. has not

an appropriation last year of $4,000
lwhile the latter got nothing), simply
because one of our United States Sena-
tors lived at its head of navigation.
On Saturday the House Committee on
Rivers and HarbOrs again reported ap-
pTOprtatiOns amounting to $11 .399 900.
but " nary a cent" to old Duck Creek.
The awards in the State are meagre i'm
comparison to other States-Delawar
Broakwater, 100000; New Castle Ice
Harbor, $4,000; Wilmington, $4,000.
Two appropriations were made several
years ago of small amounts, about one
quarter Of which was wasted i'm sur
veys, and these could be obtained only
for use at the mouth of the creek, not
in the interest of its navigation but
Interstate commerce, as a place
of harbor for river crafts in
time of danger. Our committee
who went from this town to Washing
ton to ask an appropriation were told
that the improvement of the creek was
" local enterprise" and hence not in
the scope of constitutional provision.
but for some reason the Senator who
was so scrupulous about Duck Creek
could not only vote but present and push
through an appropriation to dig out
Jones Creek, a distance of some
twenty-five miles. II looks as if

why Pa FOrgaye Her.

Once, when Carols mamma was very
ali, the little one hushed her sweet voice
lest she should "'sturb mamma"
A weary time it was for the wee Cir
aaic! She missed mamma; and tired of
watchful Mary, she liked to slip away
INTO papa's study, and play quietly be-
side him while he wrote his sermon.
His presence made the study pleasant
place.
Mr.. May often made calls in the after
moon; and one day noticing the shadow
on the little girls face, he said: II shall
! be home by four, Carol"
Carol watched and waited, and still
papa did not come A thought occurred
90 her. With great effort she climbed
zap to the study clock, and, opening the
door, tried to move the hands along,
vwhcn, alas snap went one of the hands.
|'Where is my little girlq" asked Mr..
May, as he entered the house an hour
later. But no little girl appeared. When
he entered the study she pointed mutcly
TO the clock.
t'But why did my darling touch the
Acloclx2n asked her papa.
And Carol sobbed out: 81 wanted to
make it time for papa to come home. !"
And papa could not find it in his heart

Beware OF Him.

Farmers good, honest souls-arc the
special prey of the sharper and confidence
man. Their belief in anything that pre-
tends to be scientific is unbounded. Any
thing, therefore, that relates to fertiI-
izers and analysis of soils is very apt to
be favorably considered By them. But
in this respect the greatest caution should
be observed. The fruit-trce peddler and
the lightning-rod men may be received
as friends with open hearts, but when
the patent-manure man comes around -
as he does and will--he should be re-
ceived with suspicion and GOODNESS, if
not warned off peremptorily; and this
because he is most dangerous frand.
His cheat is not discovered and its eff
fects are always to be explained away
A common crab purchased for Bald
win or a choice russell speaks for itself
and bears its own sins; but tho patent
manure formula for which five dollars
has been paid is buried in the soil, and
It's failure can never be identified. It
may be suspected, but can never be
proved. But the experiment stations
have taken hold of this manure fraud
and have exposed the worthlessness of
his formulas, and farmers should have
nothing to do with him. -New York
Times.
