years, there being In port twelve barges
laden with nearly $4,000 tons of coal,
five big sea-going tugs, the new ferry
boat Goshen and the steam lighter Bes-
sic
For the past week ice has been form
ing i'm the river TO such an extent that
it has made navigation almost impossi-
bile i'm the channels and as this is The
only harbor between Philadelphia ana
the Breakwater many vessels have been
compelled to put IN here.
Vessels in Harbor.
The craft in harbor today are as fol-
lows: Reading Coal Companys tug Ly-

Goshen in Collision.
The ferry boat Goshen, built at the
wards of the Harlan & Holhngswo
Company, attempted to go around to
New York under her own steam, leaV-
ing Wilmington eanly yesterday morn
ing. All the way down from the mouth
of the Christiana river the boat en-
countened heavy ice and was finally

eineer II. Chapman. was being docked,
she ran into one OF the ice piers and
several OF her stay blocks were knocked
out of position but no other damage

at the Wright homestead. He had min

The town had in return conferred its
highest honors upon him, electing him to
represent them at Montpelier in the gen.
eral assembly. The common schools
seemed 10 interest him in great measure
