CANS BODY FOUND.

The partially decomposed body of a
man was found by two boys, in a pond
near Blackwood, on Sunday last. The
report was at once started that the body
was that of Charles CAM, who myster-
iously disappeared at Paulsboro, several
weeks ago., Corener Hopper had the
body removed to the morgue, in Cam.
den, and notified the relatives and
friends of the missing man of the sup.
posed find. A large number of persons,
including the brothers and sisters of
GAM, visited the morgue on Monday,
but the majority were positive that the
body was not that of the missing man.
County Physician Iszard, found beyond
a doubt that death had resulted before
the body was thrown into the water.
Bruises, evidently made by a blunt in
strument, were found on the head, and
the mans peck vas broken. The con.
dition Of the lungs substantiated the
theory Of the physicians that he was
dead when thrown into the water. Pre-
vious to the post norton, the body was
fully identified by John and James
Gauz, as being that of their brother
Charles, and they asked that the re.
mains be turned over to them for bur-
ial. The request was granted after a
jury had been empanelled and they had
viewed the body. He was buried on
Thursday at Swedesbor0.

ANCHORED.

An Angel from Heaven stole down one day
And unto an ever willing heart did say,
Come angel on earth, arise!
Sever ali thy earthly ties,
And go with me unto Paradise.
Her eyes grew wet with a sweet regret
As she thought OF those behind, and yet
For a heavenly sphere, to her more dear
Than the one she was quitting.
The luminous orb OF our golden day
was slowly h0meward vending Its way,
D Grave, thou hast lost thy victory. Death bit
ter is thy sting.
How hard 1t IS TO say goodbye,
But II Was decreed, that Ii should be.
Death ope'd the portal, and turned the key
And severed the loving tie.
All! to reflect! AMI but retrospect
How on you wing from US a sigh.
How vacant the home, her presence had known
HOW angry at everything i had grow
When her sufferlngs were Ger.
That voice so dear, no more We'll hear.
SADNESS thou art near, enjoyment we must part
To meet again no more.
Then l thought II these words OF mine,
kung with accents OF thoughts divine
For her in the shape OF q Gods design,
And to question his motive was 1t a sight OF mine
All but for the wings to soar
Where sorrow comes, All! never more.
While ! wrestled with the anguish in my breast
Al parting with one l loved the best
A sweet peace stole about me and to my weary
Her spirit has flown
To the world unknown,
To Heaven its home,
Neyerm0re to roam.
Dear heart this is but a test.
To show you God knOweth best,
Lies breakers past
She's safe at last
AT anchor fast.

snRnon PARK

Ground has been broken fot a mum.
Der Of new buildings to be erected at
Gordon Heights Park. on the Delaware
side, Just norlh of Penn's Grove, by the
Wilmington Steamboat Company. The
first spadsfol Of earth was upturned by
Horace Wilson, Secretary and Treasur-
er Of the company, a few days ago The
improvements include a hall for dane
ing, an ice ream pavilion, carrousel
building and a building for public com
fort. There is also a power house now
in course of equipments and a large club
building, which will be fitted up IS a
restaurant. When those buildings are
finished they will command a magnific
ent view OF the river, and, being on
high ground, will add greatly to. its
pictuTesqueness. 1t is proposed TO
erect the dancing hall ON the lower pla-
tesu of ground which rises from the
river. Its facade will be parallel with
the river. and is designed in the Re-
Nuisance style of architecture. The
central pavilion or entrance is 80 feet
in width and 80 feet in height, the arch
ed entrance having double columns of
the Doric style. The entablature is to
be enriched with festoons of flowers,
the cornice is to be plain, and the wood
mouldings ara to form an artistic finish,
with a balustrade surrounding the cor
nice. The plans for the corner pavil-
ions are similar in style to the central
one, but on a smaller scale. The car.
rousel building is also in the Renais'
sance style, and in keeping with the
hall of dancing. The central features
consist of two square towers surmount-
ed by a pedestal On which are two seulp-
tured horses; the towers are highly or
namented. The entrances to the luild-
ing are through arched doorways orna-
mented in staff. The building of pub
lie comfort will be very ornamental.
The ice cream pavilion is to be 40 by
so feet, and will have its roof support
ed on Doric columns.
The grounds and buildings will be
illuminated by q large power and gen.
Grating plant installed in the power
house. The plant consists of two large
boilers, high speed engines of modern
make, arc and incandescent dynamos.
The improvements, win be completed
by June LIST.

II was simply . bin, he said, to issue
