Improving Coiored Schools.

A mass meeting was held in the colored
school room last Wednesday evening in
Dover, for the purpose of considering what
was necessary to improve the oolored public
schools The Rev. George L Washington
was made chairman, and Prof T. B. Snow
den secretary. Joshua Parker stated that the
object was to inaugurate plan to hold a
State Convention, to advise and draw up a
petition to present to the Legislature, asking
it to give the colored people better school
system.
Professor Snowden briefly spoke of the
condition of the public schools; that most of
the schools were in session during only four
months Of the year aud those schools were
taught in houses in every way unsuitable for
school purposes. The children are crowded
in small rooms like sheep in pen.

sTRAwBRiDeE & cLoTHIER's QUARTERLY.
The Christmas number of .StraW5yfdge 6
Czohtie,'s Quarterly completes the seventh
year of this popular publication for ladies'.
A glance through its profusely illustrated
pages will insure its continuance in the favor
of its fair subscribers. Fashion, home-art,
and domestic economy give sufficient scope
for variety, while still appealing solely to
the ladies for patronage and support The
bouquet to this holiday issue is a colored
lithograph froutispiece, an evening toilette,
that charms the beholder on opening the
book. "a Bachelors Folly" confessed by
Frank Daring, is a story of the fate of a
young man who delayed too long in choos-
ing between blonde aud a brunette. This
humorous story opens the way in an agreea-
bic manner for the proper digestion of the
varied contents prepared for art amateurs,
needlewonien, and others, who are instructed
in the art of making and decorating tables,
fire-screen banners, cushions, baskets, and
various other useful or ornamental articles
Attention is called to a novel art wo rk
called, chip carving, at which anyone with
ordinary talents will succeed. Christmas
games and charades, fancy dresses for chill.
dren's entertainments, and an article on max
ing furniture for dolls house s, can be put to
immediate use by ladies' who look after the
welfare aud amusement of their children
As is proper, fashion comes in for the lionIs
share of consideration; many pages are de-
voted to fashion for women folks and FASH
ions for misses and children. The Craze
Club continues to chronicle the queer items
supplied by its. seven members. Miss Juliet
Corson devotes the kitchen page to discuss
ing family festivities, and what toothsome
things to prepare for them. The literary
contents are wound up with a musical
mlsque in six scenes, for representation at
the holiday season. It is entitled, Hail to
the New Year !" and is written and COM
posed by Hunter MacCulloch and William
Stobbe. It is so arranged that it may be
done in as large way and as regardlessly
of expense as possible; or it may be treated
as cantata and sung by handful of peo-
pie. As far as it is possible to predict from
al SNalAludeAoh VI lhG AFS AuulDSIs Ol NllGu
it is composed, this masque Is choral work
that will repay the attention of those inter
ested in music of this kind, and to those we
recommend it.
A large number of pages are filled with
illustrated specimens of all kinds of dry
goods; by means of which guide any lady
can select the goods she wishes at the price
she is willing to pay,and buy by letter, with
considerable of the satisfaction and certainty
of a personal visit and inspection at the coun-
ters ofthe house that publishes this COM
bined magazine and guide to shoppers by
mail. Send IS cents for a specimen copy
to Strawbridge & Clothier, Philadelphia or

Famous Women.

It is a significant fact that most of the
women who have achieved fame in art, lit

health. This shows that the mind is never
capable of the severe and continued applica-

body is at its best. The woman who aspires
to fill an exalted place among her associates.

THE vessel captains complain that
the dredging in the Mlspillion done by
the Government this winter, has been
injudiciously managed. They claim
that May Shoal" is the greatest OBJ
siruction between the creeks mouth
and Milford, and the only barrier to
navigation to the craft that now sail
from here. The shoal is a hard gravel,
and of course is harder TO remove than
the black mud dredged in other local
tiles. If MAY ShoaW is removed, it
is claimed that vessels could make the
run down over it at half low water
If such is the case, the vessel owners
should have sufficient interest in this
matter to see that the money is used
to the best advantage. Such was the
mission Of the late VIM. Scribner, and
he attended to it; but those who should
now care for this work, manifest no
interest, Probably the vessel owners
expect delegation to come from
Washington and beg them to be per-
mitted to cut a canal direct to the bay,
superintend it, and furnish tug to
take their vessels up and down. May
be they do.
