GOVERNOR Stockley would lose no
self respect If he followed the example
or the Democratic Governors OF New
York and Pennsylvania, and would ap-
point next Saturday the day OF General
Grants funeral, a legal holiday. Gen.
Grant had many warm friends in Della
ware, even amongst Democrats, who
voted for him in preference to Horace
Greeley, and for the only time In the
history OF the State, gave her electora
vote for Republican President.

ANOTHER RESULT Of the Democratic
reform is the refusal of the Paciic
ocean mail steamers, to take the United
States mail from San Francisco to Aus.
tralia without subsidy. The mails
can go by freight in some sailing
vessels, and be some two or thret
weeks behind the usual time. The
meanest thing in the whole affair wa.
an attempt by the subordinates o.
Postm aster General Villas and by biz
order, to smuggle the mail on board
the steamer as common freight.
Thus far the present Democratic
administration has been very success
full In driving into bankruptcy the
largest ship-buiider in the Unitet
States, and in driving the carrying OF
the mail OH foreign vessels.

1t is high time the tax payers Of New
Castle County should call halt ON the
Trustees of the Poor, If they do not
wish to see the county bankrupted.-
County Treasurer Herbert knows this
better than any other man. Warrants
amounting to elQ, 900 were drawn by
the Trustees of the Poor ct their last
quarterly meeting, while there was
nothang like enough money In tie county
Treasury to pay them. Amongst the
charges was one over 1,s00 for beef
alone. The amouat furnished by the
entsrprising butcher was Is, S,8l9 pounds
for two months, June and July. As
there are only 2S0 izmates In the insti-
tuition, this would allow them one and
. third pound OF best day, besides ra-
tions Of pork and nation furnished.
What becomes Of this meat ? Does
any body suppose for an instant that
these 2SOinmAtes, mszy Of them 30 old,
toothless, weak and diseased, that they
could not eat a pound IN week, con-
sumo that much meat ? How, too, do
these charges sound for an almsho1se {;

Buekalew on Removals.

One OF the most pitiful spectacles in our
politics, and a circumstance which marks
their low ebb,is the pertinacity with which
SO many Republican oflice-hOlders want to
hold on after the popular verdict of custer
has been rendered against them. They
who were the loudest in their abuse of the
Democracy and who predicted the most
calamitOus results of change Of federal
administration, are now the most willing
to hold commission under it and the most
pertinacious in clinging to every chance to
stay.
Some of them affect great hope of such
resistance by the Senate to removals of
men whose commissions have not expired,
that the president will be practically OBJ
stracted in his desire to secure agencies of
his own faith to carry out his policies.
From the talk in some quarters it might be
supposed that the relative constitutional
functions of the president and Senate in the
selection of the officers of federal power
had been vastly changed of late years !;
and that the powers of the chief magis-
trate were only titular and his authority
nugatory without the approval of com-
plaisant Senate. For some years this idea
has been obtaining lodgment in the popular
mind; and there aIe yet a great many intel
ligent persons who do not comprehend that
al the eneroacbments upon the executive
prerogatiycs which We're made under the
Of Andrew johnson to EN-
harfa rs him, were virtually abrogated by
the same party that made them, for the

THE snail has never enjoyed the popularity
ofthe clam and oyster in the mollusk family,
and bis chief use seems to have been to point
the moral of infinitesinal slowness of pace.
But 1t has been found that properly utilized,
he possesses some rare medicinal properties.
The story of how the discovery was made is
interesting, if true prominent English
dean, was sufferer from eczema, or skin
disease. While walking in his garden one
warm day, suffering intensely with the burn
ing, itching rash that covered his body, a
family of snails clinging to the under side
of leaf, suggested the idea of applyin them
to the affected skin. Laying few upon the
singing spots, he discovered by this heroic,
though repulsive, treatment a simple remedy
for the disorder. There may be some peo-
pie who would regard this remedy as worse
than the disease.

THE statistics of immigration for the fiscal
