The Am en- o nlens.

The news from Dover In relation to
the increased representation amend
ment is, that there is very little chance
for its ratification. 1t iD thought by
some that it will not get over mere
maj Jrity In the House. If these reports
be any thing like true, why not defeat
the amendment at once, aud get 1t out
OF the way. Then let Constitutional
Convention be called, the members to
be elected by the people, and let the
work of the convention be ratified OF
rejected by the people, no matter
which, 40 the people do it. The present
proposed amendment has too much of
the politician in 1t, and not enough OF
the people, and that is what is the mat
ter with 1t. The people made the con
stitution;let them uDmake il or re-make
il TO suit the nselves. Delaware Is toe

Mrs. Kopf, Of Eleventh and Church
streets. has made the following state.
lnent, to . reporter OF the REPUBLICAN
in reference to the shooting affair nj her
house last Wednesday evening:
Last Wednesday evening the gen.
| tleman who has heen connected with
this affair called in, and We we're sit
ting in this room talking, when we
heard stone thrown against one Of the
front windows, wbich frightened me 30
much that requested him TO romain
all night. Besides him there was no
one in the house but the hired girl and
my children, as my husband has
scarcely spent a night at home during
the past II months, and was aware that
thi gentleman has been in the habit Of
on the third floor, next 10 that occupied
by the hired girl, while my room is in
the second story front, and my children
sleep with me.
| The gentleman had retired, aud
shortly afterwards I went TO my own
room and was undressing, when l
heard some one come in the side door,
and stepped into the eutry at the head
of the stairs, and saw 1t was my bus-
band, and that he had q revolver in his
hand. asked him what he intended
TO do with the pistol, but without ma
king any answer he came up stairs and
looked in the parlO.. Not seeing any
Thing there, he came in my room, and,
after glancing at the children AZ they
lay sleeping in my bed, went out and
lproceeded up stairs to the room occupied
by the gentleman and, without waiting
tor him TO open the door, threw him
self against IL, breaking the fastening.
He then fired two shots, one of
(which entered the wall at the head of
tie bed, while the other struck the wall
at the side. The gentleman at the time
was standing close by him, and as soon
as my husband saw him, he fired
another shot, along the entry, which
, lodged in the door of the room occupied
+ to shoot this gentleman he could have
' done so, but he 6red in a different direc-
tion from where he was. eHe then came
down TO my room with the smok ing
pistol in mis- hand, and my little boy,
4 VINO had been awakened by the shoo =
! ing, met him at the door, and taking
!, hold of the pistol begged him not Il
' shoot again, when it went of and he
8 was wounded in the hand.
n "The gentleman was not at any time
o In my room; neither was in his, aud
2 my husband was fully aware that he
l frequently lodged in the house and
, occupied that room F.; In fact, he had on
y a number of occasions requested him
!, TO do no. 1t was very seldom that my
b husband came home, and during he
past seventeen months he has not con
y tributed dollar toward the support Of
:, myself or children. He left me here
d alone while we kept the saloon, wher
}. he could have been home every even
d ing, as he works in the day time, anC
y not at night, as stated in some of thu
a papers. If he had any doubts of me
;, why didn't he take me to live near u
his work, as he makes money enougl

influence of liquor, and / scarcely be

A VISIT TO an Artists studio.

IL cannot be denied that there Is a
growing love Of art among the people
Of this city, and the fact becomes more
evident daily. People are no longer sat
isiied with having their halls and their
parlors papered, although the material
may be uf tho finest description, and
the patterns the handsomest that can
be devised. The parlors of the wealthy
are now not only papered, but after
wards decorated by the finest touches
Of The artiat's brush, while the walls
Of many are almost covered with hne
oil paintings, the greater number OF
which are studies Of the beautiful In the
near vicinity of this city, painted
by Wilmington artists. Nor IL this
love of art confined TO the wealthy, for
even In the more modest parlor Of the
mechanic and wcrkingman can be
found chromos, executed 30 we'll that al
first glance they would almost pass for
oil paintings. A reporter OF the RE'
PUBLICAN dropped into the studio OF
Clawson Hammitt, in the Institute Bull
ding a few days since, and after men
tioning the marked increase In the love
of art, asked his views In reference u
the cause Mr.. Hammitt Is OF the
opinion that IL can be attributed to tht
introduction of chromos, which have
cultivated a taste for art, until thos.

were noticed in Mr.. Hanmitt's studio
among them being one Of scene ol

portraits which he ia painting to ord@l
and one of which is Of gentlema
who has been dead several years, th
work now being done from photo

evenings Mr.. Hammitt has classes this

There were also some fine specimens {
