Cuttings Lecture.

Mr.. A. X. Cuttings start on his lee
turing tour is not calculated to In
SHIRE confidence in the heart OF that
gentleman. The average American
citizen don't seem to appreciate the
setter ing of n brother in a Mexican
prison. Mr.. Cutting didn't lecture at
Fort Worth; prospects doubtless were
less encouraging than in Dallas There
were less than fifty people at the rink
last night to hear Mr.. Cutting recite
his wrongs, and picture the horrors Of
Mexican adobe prison, where prls-
oners are fed at cost of 8 cents day.
This is the man who excited so much
attention, drawing the governments OF
the two nations into wordy war,
with slight prospect in the minds OF
some people that war would result
from his arrest and Imprisonment.
Mr. Cutting made great stir
throughout the country and, like other
people who make hit, start out lee
turing. Mr.. Cutting, besides telling
of his arrest and his prison life, tells
of plan he has Of colonizing the
northern States of Mexico. lie denied
that it was to be an armed invasion. 1t
was to be a peaceable movement. lie
said he had received over 2000 letters,
encouraging him in his plan, and that
he expected an enrolment of 5000 peo-
pie by the LIST of March next. There
was some Indignation expressed by
one or two high strung patriots last
night at the slim attendance and the
little interest the people took in rep
resentative American who had been
most foully treated by the foulest eX-
cuse of nation on earth. Ejecting a
stream Of tobacco spit three yards
long on the rcd hot stove at this juno
ture caused several parties to move
away. In point of numbers the lee
ture was failure. Mr.. Cutting makes
a good appearance as lecturer.

Tho weather was necessarily cold and un-

p rule, distant and difficult of access. A
long walk through snow was generally nec-

weary skater was subjected to the same
tiresome tramp after he removed his skates
Then the danger Of breaking in, Or slipping
through an air-hole was always imminent.
Many weary skater has toiled with frozen

In '64 and '65.

The recent cold snap, freezing, as it has,
the bodies Of winter in and near the city,
suqqests the manner of skating as it was be-
fore the advent of the roller rink. In the
year of '6a and '65, ice-skating was very
fashionable in Wilmington. Male and fe-
male, young and old engaged in the past
time. The CLEAN and sparkle of the steel
was seen on every river and pond.
The place par excellence was the BARLEY
MILL" which occupied that portion of the
Brandywine just along the second dam.
Nothing but a severe and long continued
snail of cold weather would make the place
available for skating.
When, however, tho ice was safe ant
proper for the sport, hundreds foeket
.hither to enjoy themselves.
The ice was crowded with skaters, Will
the shore was lined with their fathers, moth
ers, and aunts, who seemed to obtain grea
pleasure from being merely COOKERS on
Vienna. Fires were kindled on the bank
to afford comfort for the shiyering mutt
tudes, and everything wore holiday al
pearence.
When the Barley Mill was not in conditio

Mr.. Edward Atkinson writes of
the eject which the threatend change
from gold to silver standard would
have upon the wageworkers of the
country. lie shows that at bottom
the real creditor class is the great
army of producers-ihe men and wo-
men whose earrings make up the bulk
Of the deposits in the savings banks
Of the country. The demagogue in
politics is always seeking to speak
for what be calls the debtor class.
This while affecting to denounce the
so-called creditor class FOR its exact

who save constitute the real creditor
class These are not The gold bugs"
