April IL, 1855
Mr., EDITOR, You must excuse me for
not writing the remainder of my article
any sooner for we have been very busy.
will now try TO give my young farmer
friends q description of Il mode Of fish
ing and also an account of our trip down
TO this delightful village.
We left Pennsgroye ON March 25th un-
der a dead calm. Wetowed our dwelling
down to New Castle where the tide met
us; tied up and waited until it turned.
Then we got under way and towed down
to Hclmeses Hole, where we put up for
the night. We turned out next morning
at 8 o'clock and under n light breeze
from the northwest we arrived at Hope
Creek on the morning of the goth.
After lrcakfasting heartily, my COM
radcs, Messrs. Smith and Watson conclu-
dcd we must have roasted duck for sup
per. We gathered together our cunning
plraphernalia and started for Collins
Beach which IS /. short distance below
H1pa creek on the Delaware side. There
is u magnificent pond close to where We
landed, We skirted the pond without
getting n shot, although we saw plenty
of ducks in the interior of the pond 0at
of our reach. after spending an hour on
the Beach we started home. We had
just star cd when We espied a flock of
wild g csc out in the Bay. AS we had
a swift sailing boat we concluded to sail
them down and get a shot at them. Mr..
Watson had the helm and Mr.. Smith and
the guns already. When within about
scvcnty-five yards Of them they arose.
Mr.. Smith fred both barrels ofhis breech
load r before I got my gun off, (she be-
ing an old Queen Ann piece belonging to
M. Watson), kept pulling away abou
five minutes when away she went and
away | went. Sic did all of her shoot
ing backwards and side ways, In about
i've minutes ore side Of my face was
swollen up, n finger partly dislocated,
and nary goose. We concluded We had
enough OF duck and geese shooting SO
we bore away Eomo, aTsying there about
I O'Clock in the afternoon. y day or
two afterwards we started en- a ducking
expedition up Hope creek when we had
better luck. We killed four ducks.
The made of fishing here is to fish all
the time and rest when the season is
over. Wehave two thriving merchants
in this place, Mesars. Barnart and Buckle
up who both doa thriving buaincss in the
cigar trade. We also have very clever
neighbors. the Messrs IIorn.r on one
SIDE and &cssers. Morgan and Armstrong
on the other. Hoping my poor attempt
at journalism Will please a few, will
close. Yours, SILVER STAR.

HOW atrilknrs Originate.

The present strike Oh The Southwest
EN- system originated, as is we'll known
in the discharge Of a ma by the name
of Hall, at Marshall, Tex. Strange to
say about ten days before this strike
was ordered a general strike was threat
ened because of the refusal of the com
pany to discharge a a Mr., Irons,
Chairman of the Executive Committee
az Sedalia, notified the Superintendent
at that place that if a certain master
meclian was not discharged within
.forty-eiglt hours q Strike would be or
dered on the entire Missouri Pacific
system. The strike was averted only
by tile voluntary resignation ofthe man
who had incurred the wrath Of the
committee. lie was d good mechanic,
well fitted for his place, and a fayorite
with the officers of the road.

fhe Anarchists' Trial Approaching q Con-
elusiOn-ProsecutiOnA About Through.
Chicago, July 3O.-State's Attorney
Grinhell announced yesterday morning that
all the testimony for the State in the
anarchist trial would be laid before the jury
by this evening.
DR.. John B. Murphy, who attended many
of the wounded officers at the DesplaineS
street station. testified that lie was called
there at about eleven o'clock. On going to
tile station he saw ten men stretched out OF
rolling about in agony. Up stairs lie found
Officer John Barrett with hole in his side
big enough to admit of two fingers. Some
twenty-six or thirty officers were attended
by the doctor, who named and described
the wounds Of each.
Mr.. Thompson, the young man who gave
such damaging evidence against the leading
anarchists on Tuesday, was recalled by the
defense and asked whether he was not al
Grct's hall on the night of MAY 4. lie re-
piled that he was not lie was questioned
very closely but did not vary any of his
original statements.
The States attorney brought out the
fact that he had been compelled to move
frnm his house, owing to the visits of the
adherents of the anarchists who sought to
intimidate him from taking the stand.
Officer Michael Hoffman testified to find.
ing tine bombs near Ogden Grove which had
been pointed out to him by informer Lell.
mann. The same witness also told of the
vast amount of deadly missiles found under
the house of anarchist Thielan.
Lieutenant Bowler was called and cx-
hibited TO the jury tho torn and blood
stained uniforms of the wounded police
officers.
Captain Michael Setback then took the
stand. On the afternoon OF May when
Lingg was locked up at the Chicago avenue
station witness asked him whether he was
at 81 North Lake street on the night of
May 3, and he replied that he was. He said
he had made the dynamite for use at the
Haymarket. Lingg said lie hated the pO-
lice because they had attacked the people
at McCormicks and because they were
friendly to the capitalists.
Captain Setback explained the result of
his experiments in exploding the bombs
found among Lingg's effects. Lingg de-
clared that he prepared the bombs to use
them against the Calling guns of the militia
in the great revolution which had com.
menced. Six persons he said had called at
his house on May to obtain bombs.

A VIOLENT anonymous attack has
been made in Paris on the Panama
Canal enterprise. The attack is made
in a pamphlet, strongly written and
containing seventy pages. The title is
Engineers Letters on the Panama
Canal" The cover bears the imprint
of a sarcophagus. and the work is dedi-
Gated to 1.-The victims of the Panama
craze" The pamphlet describes the
mortality among the workmen en-
ployed in making the canal, describes
in anecdotal form the state of things
on the Isthmus, tells of the needless
squandering of the French public's
money, and in conclusion states that of
twenty-one sections of the canal only
five are yet in any thing like an ad-
vanced state of construction.
