Patrick Henry Next.

Anent the anniversary of Tom
Payne's birthday (and the patriot de-
serves all the honors that cen be
showered upon his name), it has often
been the subject of remark among the
truly loyal subjects of the United
States that we seem to ignore the name,
aye, and fame. of that true apostle OF
liberty Patrick Henry. whose ringing
tones and Enthusiastically telling. oratory
did as much. perhaps more, tDan any
other of the men heroes who took part
in the Great Debate" which first re-
leased the colonie- from the thraldoln
of an imbecile English King, and es
tablished for once and for ever that the
people ofthese great States are and
always were imbued with the true
spirit of independence. Why not
honor the name of Patrick Henry is a
question that may well be asked? Let
the answer be forthcoming.

Lively Times Among the Republicans
 over the Senatorshfp.
 WILMINGTON, Del, Dec. 18.-Though Delaware is the next mallest State in the Union, it is large enough to hold the biggest Senatorial fight the country has seen fol many years. So far every Republican oi prominence has announced himself as can, didate. and every Republican of TO prom thence believes himself to be dark horse, with excellent prospects. Among those who are making an active and personal canvass are: Anthony Higgins, Charles H. Treat, George N. Massey, James R. Loftlsnd, N. E. Smithers, Jonathan s. Willis, Joshua s. Marvel, Judge Fisher, E. G. Bradford, Will liam 0. Spinance and Benjamin Yields.
 There are other candidates, but they are not prominent enough to mention.
 The whole State is excited over the con- test and the indications are that the fight will grow more exciting each day until the Republican caucus on the night of January IA. The men who are suffering most by this state of affairs are the sixteen Republican members of the legislature. Everywhere they go they find themselves surrounded by recognized candidates, and their friends and they are compelled to listen to the peculiar fitness of each man.

THE OYSTER CROP FAILS.
Delaware River and Bay BiValyes A
 NWnrnEnInaa

Delaware River and Bay BtValyes Are Worthless.
 PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1S.-This seasons I crop of the Delaware river and bay is 8 fail
 ure. Three hundred and sixty oyster schoon- points in the river and bay during the past week, because the oysters are not worth car rying to market. It is expected that during the coming week others will be tied up as fast as they shall arrive, and thousands of
 men who find employment during the winter in oyster dredging will be compelled to seek
 other means of earning their living.
 The oyster dealers and planters along Del
 aware avenue and Spruce street are unani- nous in their opinion that the Delaware
 oysters are only fabbiness and water, while
 the Chesapeake crop is one of the finest ever known.
 Dealers caanot account for this singular state of affairs, but many think that
 the strong eaeterly winds which prevailed
 during the entire summer produced brackish
 water and prevented the fresh water from
 reaching the young and growing bivalves,
 which is absolutely necessary to promote the growth of good oysters. The Chesapeake oysters are gathered almost entirely from the inlets and coVes which are constantly fed by fresh water streams, and are too far away from the seacoast to feel the effect of the
 ocean winds.
 The demand for oysters grows greater
 each year and the dealers in this city find
 themselves dependent almost entirely upon
 the Chesapeake dredgeIs for prime oysters, while the cheaper and inferior grades still can be obtained from the lower Delaware.
 The lave of the State of Maryland require that any vessel dredging for oysters in the waters of that State shall be owned by resi- dents of Maryland.
 This bars out the Delaware river boats, which are forced to tie up, when, as at pres- ent, the crop in their own territory is worth less. In some cases vessels are transferred tc Maryland captains, although still owned here, and thus they manage to hold their own when caught in a tight place. In consequence of the poor condition of the Delaware bay and river crop, and the wal upon the pirates in the Chesapeake bay, the supply of good oysters is small and the price correspondingly high. Oysters of poor qual ity are abundant, however, and low in price; but not so salsble. The present condition of the market and the crop can hardly be i'm proved this winter.
