Most Of the people around here have
taken advantage of the cold snap to fill
their ice houses. Many of them say it is
the best ice they have had for several
years, it being five inches thick.
Some of the colored people who were
celebrating Christmas, Monday, got a
little too gay and indulged in general
fight, but our town officers, after some
trouble, got them quieted, and Officer John
son had some of them before Squire Rose,
Wednesday. who fined them.
The steamer Clio has not arrived in
town yet. She started from Philadelphia
Friday, but did not get any further than
Port Penn. because of the ice in the river.
After unloading there she went in the
canal at Delaware City, where she will re-
main until the cold weather is over.
{, Considerable excitement was caused
Tuesday morning by the alarm of fire pro-
ceeding from the residence of Rev. R. A..
Sawyer. crowd of men and boys quick
ly collected and soon had the fire extin-
guished. Slight damage was done, but
had it not have been for the prompt as
sistance, no doubt it would have been
more serious as the flames were spreading
rapidly. The fire originated in the study,
and was caused by the little girl who
pushed the sofa against the stove where it
soon caught fire, spreading to the other
furniture in the room.
Among the many visitors in town dur
ing the holidays were Harry D. Stevens, of
Dover Isaac Lightcap, of New Castle !;

made an address to the school, after
which he presented superintendent Joseph
G.. Brown with handsome Oxford Teach
ers' Bible from the school. Mr.. Brown re-
sponded with short address, thanking
them. Old Chris was about, but as he
did not have the names of our scholars on
his book and his toys being exhausted he
was in quite dilemma when Little Fairy
Good Cheer appeared on the scene and
with her magic wand converted the bricks
in the chimney into boxes of candy which
Old Chris gave to the scholars, and then
refreshments were passed around, and
quite social time was had.
