REFERRING in complimentary, but
compulsory terms to the appointments
Of the Levy Court after hard factlonal
fght, the Morning News softly purrs
thus
rhe list, which Is printed in snother
column this morning, is generally 70
garded as o very fair one. The arrange
ment ia this hundred is In the nature Of
q compromise between contending views,
and Is probably as satisfactory a Fracti-
cal result as could be reached
Recalling the opinions recently ex-
pressed BY the News aud no doubt held
secretly now, 1t IS refreshing and dsvert
ing to behold the Christian resignation
with which the News now refers to Bach

which seems to give certain
class Of people what they want, must

is one thing which makes the
competition which a bright, modern

ALEXANDER MCCLURE once said that
the Daily Hersey was proof that 1.-THE
meaner the paper and the further it de.
parted from being a newspaper the better
the people of Wilmington like it. On
Friday the Republican said that Young
ana Proctor would likely be hanged at
4 p m. The EVENING JOURNAL had a
full descriptive account of the
hanging which took place a
lev minutes before two o'clock.
ln AL other respects there are the same
differences between what a newspaper
should be and what the Daily Hersey is.
This reflects more on the community than

ONLY nineteen years ago, when chair
man OF the House Committee on Appro.
Priations, and when the annual appro.
priations for pensions were less than
$50 600 600, General Garfield said:
We may reasonably expect that the
exps nditures for pensions will hereafter
stezdily decrease, unless our legislation
should be unwarrantably extravagaut.
The appropriations for this next year
are slS5. 10000 and Senator Allison in

SEVERAL years ago General Sherman's
unnecessarily bitter tongue made him
many enemies, which the mild sweetness
Of the genial and cordial manner Of his
riper age have cured. He has been re-.
vered and admired in New York during
the last decade as no other man was re-
vered and admired before. That raises
the question Of does 1t pay to use
Language Of bitter inyective at any time
for any purpose7 The example Of General
sherman alone is sufficient to prove that
1t does not.

FRAUDULENT CENSUS PORTER has in :

an the investigation Of the csnGus frauds

THE EVENING JOURNAL Yesterday
printed the best and fullest report Of the
double hanging at Dover and had papers
on sale fully half an hour before the

shat the hanging would likely take place

we're printing the hanging was over

1T is curious that the writer Of the some

of the public hanging at Dover, himself
took the journey to Dover, from here TO

THE end seems to be near according to
the following: At M, DR.. Alexan-

In regard to the proposition TO expend
5000, GOO IN street improvement here. it
would be well to make some definite
statement Of how the money should be
expended An estimate might be made
showing how much would probably he
expended on specified streets
and what streets would be
selected. This plan might not be abso-
Aately adhered to, but it would at lea st
give the citizens some idea OF the pros

such an expenditure.

Black Grenadines No, not
word Of them. Some day,
shortly, you'll find in this col
umn something worth reading
concerning them and all other
blacks for Spring.
Emphasizing the thoughts of
yesterday, we want to impress
again some notions of the
Grenadine art of the season.
They are at the zenith. The
high Paris Novelties are in
Grenadines. What's your
notion of Grenadinep Proba-
bly, you think of a thin stuff of
plain, almost mourning, tone,
without possibilities of style,
suggestive of a venerable
Wayback.
Revise your notion; the
Grenadine is now the top.
loftiest thing in dress goods.
Look at this one. You think
instantly of a thistle.down i'm
prisoned in the spiders web,
only the dawn is large, the
color blue. and the web black:
but there is a family of colors.
Next is a Grenadine Of black
ground with graduated pink
silk stripes making an ombre
effect of color. 1t has asso-
ciated colorings, and there are
Others here, and still others
coming, only a little of each,
SO that the risk of duplicating
a dress is very slight and the
chance of selection is small;
they are e9ckuSzf here.
Y ears ago there were some
merry fellows that occasionally
paraded the New York streets
with expanded Umbrellas. If
the buyers of Umbrellas from
the great deal advertised here
on Tuesday were in line they
would make a full regiment, or
standing with the Umbrellas
raised. touching in single file,
would be over three-fourths of
a mile. That's the power of
price. 81. 50, SI.75, So, $2.25.
