The meeting of the representatives OF
the rival Republicans at Dover was not
productive OF the results hoped for by
the Addicksites They thought that
they would be able to pull the wool
over the eyes of Chairman Browne and
his colleagues and induce them to com
NIT themselves to the propositions ad-
vanced by the gas man and his follow
ers, but they were woefully deceived
The regular Republican committee is
holding the proposals under advise
ment for a week or two and will un-
doubtedly be able to find that they
cover purposes so large that they can
not altogether hide them. This will b'
excuse enough to break off negotiations
and return to the old order of things
pending the total disintegration of th'
Union Republican party which is no

HAND OF REGuLARs SHOWN


Every hour brings fresh evidences
that there will be no harmony between
the regular Republicans and Union Re
pubicans. The following paragraph
introduces an editorial in the Morning
News to-day:
We regret that in the proposition sub
mitted by the Union Republicans at the
conference in Dover so little considera-
tion is given to the Republicans Of the
city of Wilmington. We understand
that the unfortunate troubles OF the
party were amicably discussed at the
conference and that there was a genu-
inc desire that the party should be
united. But il is almost needless to
say that the Republican voters of this
city will not agree to the terms sub
mitted in the proposition. Representa-
tlon according to population in the Re-
publican conventions has the sanction
of years Of custom in this state. It is
too late in the day to overturn this car
dinal doctrine of the Republican or
ganization.
When we consider that Washington
Hastings dictates the editorial policy of
the Morning News and that the words
above represent the views of himself
and other men equally prominent in
regular Republican circles, it is plain
to be seen that when the two commit
tees meet again on September q the
proposition of the Addicksites will be
rejected.

throughout the country as Sartain's Maya

career acted as managing editor. Poems
and short stories by Poe occasionally
adorned its columns.
The famous poem OF The Bells" was
first published in Sartain's Magazine.
received three versions of the poem. The
first copy was conglomerat;on OF jung
ling words constructed in eighteen mean
ingless lines. 1t ran as follows:
The bells, hear the bells,
The merry wedding bells,
The little silver bells,
How fairy-like a monody there ewells
From the silver-tinkling cells Of the bells,
The bells, ali, the bells,
The heavy iron bells,
Hear the tolling Of the bells;
Hear the knells;
How horrible a monody there floats
From their throats,
From their deep-toned throats;
How 1 shudder at the notes
From the melancholy throats
OF the bells. of the bells.

they possess any extraordinary merit. AS
might be expected, the author became in
censed, and, after an unsatisfactory expla-
nation on my part as TO why the poem was
rot published, wrote second version more
elaborate and extensive than the original,
which I likewise declined to publish. Ex-
plantations and outbursts Of indignation
were again in order, though they were all
forgotten upon my acceptance and promuI-
