Youthful journalism.
VIM.

A correspondent of this town writing
to the Milford News and AdUertiser, de-
scribes the graduating class at Delaware
College thusly:
"The collegiate year is drawing to u
close at the college and the graduating
class numbers six, three boys and three
girls; two are studying for the Episcopal
ministry, and will take course at a theo-
logical seminary next year, although one
is in every way an energetic and capable
journalist"
"Boys and girls" "the collegiate year is
drawing to close at the college," The
letter was quite lengthy, and would liked
to have given it in full, but the sample
above will satisfy.

PHILADELPHIA, MAY 23d, 1886.
The extension of Diamond street
through the Odd Fellows cemetery has
created havoc with an old and at one
time popular burial ground. The dis
placement of five thousand graves is no
small matter, and the inconvenience it
gives lot owners is indeed disagreeable.
Diamond street will now be the chief
thoroughfare to the park, and will be of
great convenience to the residents of the
northwestern section of the city in reach
ing the western section. But the dis
flgurement of the dead city is indeed de-
plorable, and is convincing proof that
no burial ground is safe from the en-
croachments of improvements which the
growth of large cities bring about. 1t was
shocking to see the removal of some OF
the bodies, which after being in the
graves so long were nothing but decayed
bones and crumbling collins. Yet they
were carried across to the new location,
and deposited in new homes, there per-

81, 1864, How Stewart could have voted
for the bill four months before the State was
admitted into the Union, and more than six

None Of those bonds will fall due until Jan
uary, 1895, two years after Mr.. Stewards
term of Office will expire if he shall be
elected to the U. S. Senate Index.
