OUR Representative in Congress
has secured a place on the River
and Harbor Committee, just where
the people Of Delaware prefer to have
him. There is no position in Con
gress where he can prove SO useful.
His influence can secure for us large
appropriations for our rivers. VIII

he work for the interest ofthe Penn

900 90 and 10 this extent the indebt-

increased in eour weeks.
Not only has our domestic com
merce and manufacturing interest
been greatly disturbed and injured
bv the present threatened revision Of
tie tariff. but also our foreign trade
as we'll. for no one win invest money
even abroad with the possibility OF

;ng them in the face. If they pur-
chase abroad and the tariff after
wards is reduced they can not hope
TO compete in prices with those max
ino purchases under the reduction
And so all business is stagnated and
the commercial world remains IN
state ofpanic. We can neither man
ufacture goods ner buy them abroad
and fear reigDs everywhere. There
lis a solution to the difficulty, but w
have not confidence enough in th'
wisdom and patriotism Of the Dem
ocratic party to believe it will b
{ carried out. If that party will ac

Port wardsns.
Asto :"


A few years ago there was at
high tide seven feet of water in the
upper Mispillion river, extending
from the bridge to the lower ship
yards. Now it is impossible for a
small vessel drawing four feet of
water to ascend above Scribner's
wharf. This condition is the result
Of neglect and penuriousness and it
should at once be remedied. The
wharf owners have allowed their
property to 60 down until the wharf
logs have been forced away in many
places by the sand as it presses into
Che channel of the stream. Nayiga-
ton is greatly impeded, boats
are forced to land below the town,
and the people inconvenienced in
having access to them. The people
should petition the next Legislature
for charter to elect Port Wardens
with authority to watch over the
river and force owners to keep up
the repairs of the wharves. It is an
important matter to this aa99g asan99g ~
M everything q seeded she larger
s9ll e IS cations, t..1. the z river, for it is
only through such means that prom
ise comes to the farmers. It is our
oniv salvation, for we cannot always
grow crops and give them to corpor-
aticns for merely transporting them
to market; we must have a better re-
ward and remuneration for our labor.
With good navigation the price OF
property will increase a hundred
fold and without it the sbrinkage in
land value will continue until few
win be willing 70 purchase at any
price. The improvement Of our
water facilities should be the con
cern Of every one, for it is the only
Hope Of the lower counties.

something Tor Milford.

In rural dirtricts and in small
towns generally men and women are
alike content in occupying mediocre
positions, having little confidence
in their own capacity and being des-
titute Of ambition. STRIVING merely
for the necessities Of life they soon
abandon the higher aspirations that
characterize larger towns. Stran-
gers coming to Milford have even
remarked upon the lack of culture
manifest among us, and yet we are
not less intelligent than other Pen
insula communities. Itmight prove
. a source Of pleasure and profit if n
society could be formed during the
winter months for some form Of lit
erary work, taking ia as members
both young and old. A gentleman
or lady might occupy half an hour
or more, by appointment, in lectur-
ing or reading an essay upon a sub
ject with which they are most famil-
lar, combining with it music and a
social element. The influence would
be good and wholesome, and some
thing ought to be dong to give
higher moral and intelectuaNtone to
the community. What an immense
amount Of ofinformation might shus be

A REMINDER.

1t is long time since we have said
anything about unpaid subscriptions,
but when our books show thousands
of dollars outstanding that we ought
to have, and need constantly in our
business. it is pardonable if we use
these columns occasionally to remind
those who owe us, that newspaper
cannot be published on wind. There
are some who owe for three years or
more, and who pay no attention to
statements sent by mail. To such,
notice is now given that their accounts
must be settled before January Ist.
If not paid by that time, they will be
charged $3.50 year, and costs may
be made. All who owe for one, two
or three years are respectfully request.
ed to call aud settle, at SI.oo 4 year.
After an account is three years old it
is liable to be charged at the rate Of
$3.50 a year, as that is the price when
not paid in advance. We. are com.
PEELED to give this notice because of
the large sums due us that are scat.
tered all over the county, and as there
is certainly nothing unreasonable in
the request, We trust that it will meet
with cheerful response.

WALLER.

Halloween passed off quietly as
usual in this law abiding community,
but no doubt great many Of the su-
perstitious who belong to the weaker
sex meditated, and revolved those Sc
Gret charms, which The COLUMBIAN
unearthed as belonging to that occa-
sion, in their minds so much that they
finally resolved to prove to themselves
the veracity of the statement. Never
fear, though for they'll never tell and
we all believe the COLUMBIAN every
time, even though it may be as hard
to believe as the ministers text after
the boys had glued two leaves of the
bible together and it read: "Noah
took to himself wife, who was hun
dred and thirty cubits long and forty
cublts wide, and made entirely of go
pher wood, and pitched within and
without" The preacher said he had
