grave as to shelter from world that
had cruelty ill-treated him.

Joseph Roberts, Ex-Levy Courtman
from Appoquinimink, came up to the
city yesterday to see the organization
of the new Levy Court. He had visit
ed several saloons and by the time he
got into the Levy Court chamber and
sat down In I'm arm chair beside the
seat he occupied only last Thursday
as o member of the Levy Court he was
pretty well 'siewed." 49,
He was Inclined to be auarrelsome,
but everybody knew the poor old I'M
fortunate man, the victim of his own
folly and had but little to say to him.
When President Buckingham read out
his Committees yesterday, Roberts In
terrupted him BY asking him: How
about St GeofRess' He seemed 70
have Particular feeling Of luminosity
against Levy Courtman Hutchinson, his
successor from Appoquinimlnk, and
on the train going down the road last
evening, he not only abused him
shamefully with his tongue about his
recent affidavit, but went SO far as to
strike him. Mr.. Hutchinson was too
much of a gentleman to quarrel with
him and went away from him. The
holding aver members of the Court
were very much chagrined at the
drunken actions of their late fellow
member.

When the Levy Court met this morn
ing at 1880 o'clock, Edward G. Brad
ford, Esq, presented and read in ac-
cordance with the request of the court
the day before a decision in regard to
certain notes held by different banks
against the county In regard to the
legality or illegality of said notes.
These are the notes that constitute the
floating debt Of the county amounting
to 1885, 900. Mr.. Bradford read the law
that prohibits the county from bor-
roowlng more than $4,000, and then
only in case of fire and Hood. The
tenor of Mr.. Bradford's decision was
that any part OF the debt created in
any other way was Illegally CON
tracted and the county is not liable.
His Recommendation to the court was
that 1t could apply to the Legislature
for relief. The report was lengthy
one and was listened to with the strict
est attention. Afterwards the mem
bers proceeded to the examination OF
the assessments and l2 o'clock recess
was taken until 2 o'clock p. m. No
time has been set for the appointment
of collectors, and all reports as to have
been selected for Wilmington or any
other hundred are mere conjecture.
