Tkumor That the work will Be Conn
nIenced nj tsia Early Hate.
1t ID rumored that there are probabili-
ties that work upon the now post-office
building will be commenced very soon.
The funds in hand TO the credit of Viii.
l.iGgton are amply sufficient to complete
o large share OF the work.
1t would be o gteRt boon to the build
ing interests of the city were the word
given to commence. The matter lies
with the treasury department, and it re-
mains with benator Higgins to set the
macaiaery to work.
AT the present moment building con-
tracts could bs secured at from 10 to Is
per cent reduction from normal figures.
Almost nothing is being done by the city
builders. The erection of the new build
ing or it's inception would entail the ex-
penditure OF aim lst all OF the first Gum Of
100000 diTeGtly in this city which
would be the greatest boan TO the COM
munity during this slack ssason.
AS has besr airs dy stated there would,
should the contract BE- given out now, de-
velop the difficulty of the sGperyising
architect making two or thre2 contracts
on account OF the incomplete appropriR-
tons. Bat oG the other hand Il is claimed
that as the city has csstsin large SUN
in hand for the purpose, the addition of
little extra clerical work at the depart
ment should not be construed as an in
superable obstruction to tho inception
now Of the new post office building.

Accusations OF s.vlnd.ing.

Many women living in the Eastern part
OF the city say they have been swlndled
by two men Who claim to be agents of the
AmricGa Home. These men, the women
declare, induced them to subscribe for
the publication by promising them life
size crayon picture, to be given free sftsr
the subscriber had taken 50 oopieq, or $5
worth of the journal. When the time
came for them to receive the picture, the
vsxed ones assert, they were informed
that they must pay $5 additional. The
women naturally got angry and when
they expostulatsd with the agents the
latter, it is said, became insulting and
abusive. ..--

Correspondence of the Baltimore sun,
OENTREvILLE, Nd, Aug. 2I.-The
board of county commissioners in con-
junction with the supervisors of election,
will secure at an early day eight pooling
booths Of the approved kind for use at
the different precincts in this county.
One will be erected on the court house
green at once, and competent person
placed in charge of 1t to give instructions
as to the manner of voting at the ap-
proacbing Congregational election under
the new law. A sufficient number OF
persons from each precinct will be in
structed to secure the successful working
of the plan. The vote is large in the
Third district. but with instruction and
practice, it Is thought, there will be no
difficulty in polling the entire vote. The
supervisors of election are William Il.
Newman, Thomas II. Dodd and Elwood
B. Pierce.
Mr.. William L. Holton, teller of the
Csntrevillr National Bank, is sick at his
fathers residence in this town.
Mr., Samuel Ooursey was visited at his
home by two men few days since to
buy land. They then went TO Centre
vile TO investigate the title, and on On.
other day took Mr.. Coursey around to
examine the limos. At corner on the
public road they crossed an apparent
tramp who complained of hard treatment
at the hands of neighboring farmer, but
growing independent he boasted OF hay.
ing plenty of money and produced from
various pockets large rolls of bank bills.
After while the usual cayds were pro.
duced by one of the party and the tramp
lost $50. Then privately one of the pur
chasers said to Mr.. Coarsey it was not
right to win the poor fellows money.
This was to try Mr.. ooursey and get his
sentiments. Mr.. ooursey seeing through
the tricks expressed himself to them in
plain terms, using some very foroible
expressions. The visitors declared them
selves armed, but Mr.. OourHey was not
st all intimidated. The men left for pas
tufes new. Mr.. Ooursey was supposed to
have at the tins large sum Of money in

Ion1nSuin MolnOuiSt
In case our presiding bishop shall be
dispoaed to reappoint brethren who have
heretofore served Rs presiding elders, he
will find an ample supply of available
material. II may be that our brethren,
the Rev. Charles Hill and DIR. j. II. Cald-
well, would prefer to rest on their laurels,
but If they do, there are brothers John
b. Qniag, Il. w. Todd, N. M. Browne,
and 4. q. Martindale, who are not only
as worthy OF this Episcopal confidence,
by reason OF their respective records In
the Office, a5 any others who have held it,
but they are still in vigorous health, and
fully cIGhl to another efficient and sue
cess;ul term.
But if our president deems it wise to
infUss new blood into this part OF the
body ecclesiastic, tnere is q still wider
range of choice. Where there are 80
many who are worthy and capable, it
may aeem inyidious to give any naulss:
still, we may hazard few, as speoi-
mems of a large number that are not
given.

made record As fsithful and successful
pastors, that warrants tine fullest conf
dence in theit ability to discharge the
duties OF the presiding eldership, and
successfully ''mAn the districts"
As We nave said, tness only are speoi-
mans OF tine sub.episoopal timber to be
found within our bounds; il the times de.
Insnd still younger men, they may be
found in ample numbers from which to
CHOOSE oung men who have already
proved themselves loyal to truth and
honor, efficient in their work and sucoeas-
full in the conduct of the interests CON-
mitted to their caro-. Il may be perilouS,
even to give specimens hero.

Charged with Opposing the
Part1's Prospective NOmIInee.
There are widespread assertions upon
tbs street that the most vigorous opposi-
tion exists against the canGidasure of
Harry Richardson as Republican oandi-
date for governor. It is openly asserted
that Senator Higgins liautenants, the
old trio, me. Bach and Mahaffy," are
the stoutest supporters of Colonel
Barnard.
The assertion that there is harmony
among the Wilmington hundred dole
gates is openly houted ard sneerad at.
1t Is claimed that there will be twa did,
tinot factions going from this city to the
Republican convention and that the op-
posed psrtisans are at most bitter en-
nifty. Instead of uniting to let Kent
have its choice, it is probable that an ir-
repsrable break in the RepHblican ranks
will be exhibited and that X ent's hopes
are based on delusion.
