PHILOSOPHY WITH A MORAL.
WE KNEW

the time when the purchase of n SPRING
ONEKCOAT was considered a luxury by
many and an extravaganza By the most OF
people. Where we sold one fifteen yean
ago we now sell twenty-five. People have
learned that when a Heavy Overcoat be-
comes burdensome II is not the time TO go
without any Overcoat. 10 Is one OF the, II
not the. most useful garments. for when you
lay IL aside in the spring you bring 1t In use
again in the fall. II you should visit the
mountains or the seaside during the sum-
mer you will need Lightweight over
coat-a valuable friend. Then. again. In
the matter of health. they are a great pro-
lection, for when 1t Is too warm for your
Heavy Overcoat you are liable To go out
without any Oyercoat and subject yourself 10
many troublesome days Of illness.
The greatly increased demand justiiies us
in carrying an exceedingly large stock.
which nables us TO ~ the smallest as well
as the largest member of the male COM
munity. The styles are the very acme Of
the clothing art. In Fineness of Fit. Relia-
bIlity OF Material and Labor. and Elegance
OF Trimmings they are equal 10 the best
custom work while the price Is fully 80 per
cent. less. II there is a size missing To fit
the propOrt tomato, the fat or stout man, the
tall or lean man, we are not aware OF IL.
Having courteous statesmen. makes IL plea
sure for them to show you our goods whether
you purchase or not.

oxford wins the University Race.

LONDON, March 28.-The forty
second University boat-race was rowed
to-day over the Thames course, from
Putney to Mortlake. Both banks OF
the river at Putney were lined with
spectators long before the hour for
starting-l2:3O o'clock. Oxford won
the toss and selected the Surrey
stake-boat. Both crews made an
excellent start. The Oxonions reached
the winning fsg-post fully three lengths
in advance. The result to-day was ex-
pected. as one of the Cambridge crew
became very i'll few days ago, and
there was no time to train n proper
substitute.
The time of the race was q minutes
&c seconds.
Out Of the forty-two races Oxford has
won twenty three and Cambridge eight

of Of ships in which stories very often

The military garrisons in Ire

England. These agents propose to TO-
ment a rising in ireland while England

A Warming.

The habit Of tippling with alcoholic liq-
uors is in many respects more dangerous to
the constitution than occasional sprees.
Both are bad enough, and no young man is
safe who is addicted to either. But the
lucid intervals give the spreeing individual
chance to recover his bodily tone, whilst
the daily use of strong drinks surely under
mines every organ and threatens to make
the person SO induging confirmed drunk
ard or an imbecile.
A young man fancieS he can drink in this
way because at % he makes no unseemly
exhibition of himself, but if a glass should
be held before him and ne conld see him
self at forty five he would be mmeasurably
shocked, Persons wonder why men of Wig
orous bodies and strong minds can ever be-
come pitably helpless by the time they
reach fifty
These men had their lives, their nervous
system, their brain tissres all hopolessly en-
feeblcd by constant potations, and they
never reeuperate. The man who must have
his daily drams may not come before
court for dsorderly conduct, but in time he
will likely be powerless for any exertion,
physical or mental, wreck Of his former
self, and a creature for the compassion of
those about him.
The spree makes itself Extensively felt,
and the remorse attending it often gives
long interval of sobriety. The constant
tipplng leads to idiocy of various degrees.
Don't tamper with liquors that have more
than per cent of alcohol in them, aud bet
ter still, avoid them altogether.

4 HEREDITARY FEUD.

Senator Sherman of Ohio has chosen to
make the War of the Rebellion the chief is
sue in the political campaign Of his
state.
A new generation has sprung into man
hood since the date Of that terrible interne-
cine strife, and the historical causes of the
war have vanished from our land. Are we
to see in this country the old feuds main
tanned interminably, as European story tells
us of the Guelphs and the
Ghibeliines, of the Lancastrians
and the House of York, the Campbells and
the McGregors, the Bourbons, and the Car
lists, etc.,
In old barbaric times the fathers and
chiefs of clans taught their children from
the cradle up how their fathers before them
had bled and fought to the knife, and how
they, the children are obliged to carry on
the feudal strife forever. This is
the disgraceful historical cue, the fratrici-
dal mission of the Ohio senator at the pres
ent moment. He is anxious to utilize the
mad mob spirit of barbaric "Middle Agesn
to make political capital. He may gain his
end by such methods, but American prog
ress, civilization and unity is tampered with
and retarded thereby.
The senator from Ohio is manufacturing
spirit of strife and division in the land
which it is his duty and responsibility to al
lay; he is stirring up rancor and recrimina.
tion which at any moment may burst into
flame and form another fearful chapter in
our national history. In English his
tory the followers of the White Rose slew
at sight the retainers of the House of Ian
caster, and from the reign Of Henry vi to
that of Henry of Richmond the whole terri
tory of England was filled with rapipe and
anarchy and murder. This was only her
editary feud! Brethren Of the same nation
for generations We're taught that those of
their own kith and kin were their greatest
enemies. Yet this theory Of hereditary feud
is the doctrine and gentle mission that Sena-
tor Sherman is preaching at this present
moment in Ohio.
He is the missionary Of the perpetuation
of bitterness and hostility, his success can
only be through ranking mems minds with
the horrible stories of dead past. Is the
bloody flag of rebellion to be forever waved
in the face of the South9 Is the bitterness
of feudal strife to be carried down from gen
Grafton to generation9 Have we not, as
the leading nation of the world some moral
responsibilities in the direction of example
to the rest of mankind. Millions in the
Eastern Hemisphere look to US as the ideal
of national unity, as practical people who
are above the sentiment OF sectional animos-
tiles, of feudal memories. Are we making
worthy American history when we ape and
copy the bloody annals of the dark ages
1t is expected of us that at this time of the
nineteenth century the great American Re-
public could show something different from
the coarse usages ofa Europe three centu-
ries ago.

The Last of the Season.

Ex.Sherif Clark closed on last Monday,
the excursion season to Cape May. The
train for the Wilmington and Northern
Railroad pier left the Market street station
at GAS a. M. and shortly after IL O'Clock
the landing at Cape May Point was reach
ed. A number of the excursionists left the
steamer to visit Cape May, but the major
portion of them remained aboard to enjoy
the delights of ride over to the Break
water.
The day was one of natures very BEST and
every one seemed to regret that he had not
prevailed upon "bis sister, his cousin
and his aunt" to join the excursion
party.
Among the excursionists were noticed
Mrs. Philip Clark and her estimable daugh-
ters, Miss Lou Alrich and Mrs. 7. ID.
Brown, Mrs. W. II. Jones and her friend
Miss Clara Carswell, Miss Virginia Ogle,
Dr. johnson and wife, Mr.. L. A. Bowers,
wife and daughter, Robert 9. Justis, Esq,
the Rev. ]. L. Estlin, the Rev. DIR. Spencer,
the Rev. MIR. Dare, Gen. Boots, W. R..
Long of the Republican, G. W. Humphrey
of the EUery EUening, and number of Will
mingtons prominent politicians.
The bland and genial Deputy Coroner, F.
E. SMITH kept open house at room No. s.,
and Harvey B. Vandegrift, Esq, was depu-
tized to look after the friends of the ex-Cor-
oner.
The trip both going and returning was
delightfully."- grand and those who missed
the opportunities offered by Mr.. Clark for a
day of rare enjoyment, made great mis-
take.

The Harris Opera Company.

Our esteemed morning contemporary in
commenting upon the Harris Opera Compa-
ny last Wednesday morning said:-
"The light operas which the Harris COM
very satisfactory manner are within the
comprehension of children, and frequently
give them great deal Of pleasure; but there
is neither wit nor fun in spicing the merry
text with swearing words. One member of
the company forgot himself in this partic-
ularon Monday night, but once is enough.
The company as whole aim to make their
fun clean as well as lively.
We would add, in addition to our contem-
porary's reference to energetic language
that the rendition on Wednesday night of
the "Chimes of Normandy" was noticeable
for being more lively than clean and too
comprehensive even for children. It was
decidedly light opera, and the peculiarly
suggestive applause from certain part OF
the house, with simultaneous silence else
where in the theatre, spoke volumes as to
ho,o the repartee and gesticulation was COM
pretended.
At one moment the writer looked around
in alarm hoping that at least mono of the
younger of the gentler sex were present to
comprehend the implication of certain
broad joke made only too intelligent by the
coarse laughter and applause of the gal
lery.
Let us have no more such teachings in
Wilmington. These jokes disgrace the
stage. They may be innocent in origin but
are capable, too readily capable of broad
translation. On Wednesday night last they
were SO comprehended by some of the audi.
ence in direct unmistakable oral response
There need be no denial of this fact. Point
ing the finger of prudery at us will not di
vest the filth from the garments of those il
whose hands the accident Of circumstance
places public morals.
| In the instance referred to, and in many
others, the double entendre was too obvious
and we fear was not unintentionally placed

Are Advertisements Read

IT is rarely that we call attention to the
columns of THE WILMINGToNIAN as a de-
srable advertising medium, as those who
have avaied themselves of its opportunities
have an appreciation Of its advantages.
To demonstrate that our advertisements
are read we will cite two cases in point: in
our last issue we stated that an entirely new
flavor of ice cream denominated "Maraschi
no" would be offered to the trade for the
first time on last Saturday at the ice cream
and confectionery parlors of Mr.. D. B..
Jones, and although the supply was sup
posed to be ample, yet the demand was such
that the Maraschino cream was exhausted
before the evening closed.
In the same issue we spoke of the adyant-
ages of the Washington House at Summit
Hill for those who desired most excellent
meal, and as a result scores of the excur-
sionists on last Thursday patronized house
which had mover been heard of by them un-
til the notice was read in these columns last
Saturday.
The above results are traceable direct to
the influence of THE WILMINGToNIAN, be-
cause no mention was made of either place
except what appeared in these columns.
Are advertisements read ?-the reply comes
back, those in THE WILMINGToNIAN arel

A PLACE TO GET FLEECED.

Complaint is made of place on Shipley
street, between Fifth and Sixth, west side,
where it is said young men of this city are
takon in and done for at keno. There is
nothing of the policy nonsense about this
concern, but 1T is said to be a real hard
knock down "ante up" Three o'clock in
the morning is the hour at which the fieeced
victims are permitted to go home. 1t is
said this place was watched Sunday, and
several young men who lost the way going
to church brought up at the entrance to the
keno bank and passed in. An ex-policeman
has the place dotted down to fine points.
The above extract is taken from the Re
presentation of the case, the place SO point
edly alluded to, needs official interfer-
ence.
The Ne,os some months ago made a radi-
cal expose Of the gaming institutions Of this
city, and for brief season the harpies were
seri ously discounted, but if common ru-
NOR is to be credited, within the shadow of
the Meas building is one of the most dam
gerous gambling places within the limit Of
this cty-dangerous because it inveigles in
to its meshes some of our most promising
yonng men.
More than one young man, it is stated,
has had his future business prospects blast
ed because his footsteps led to the place in
question, and more than one mother is
heartbroken to-day because her boy has
been allured to moral destruction by the
fasoinations of the gambling table.
The Morning Neaos battled heroically fol-
the cause of the commonwealth when it not
only,in unmeasured terms, denounced gamb-
ling, but at the same time definitely located
the places where the games of chance Were
carried on, but this people is proyerbially
apathetic upon such questions and all at.
tempts to crush dangerous practices are ol
spasmodic nature.
