THE SILENT ONE.
BY ANNIE E. CLARK,
One is sitting there alone,
And the grace
Of a statue's, carved in 610110,
Wears her face ;
Bee her mouth !
Silence, sweetness brood about it;
Yet her eyes could speak without it,
From her soul.
elm Is thinking of the crown,
And the palm—
Things beyond this world's renown;
Oh, how calm
Heart and breath I
While the sunlight, falling round her,
With its rays seems to have bound her
To the spot.
Mark her smooth, untroubled brow,
And her oyes!
What dap thought is written now
Oa her skies !
No blank orbs,
Fixeci in vague and idle musing,
While the world goes winning, losing,
Aro her eyes!
Deep they are, with some great yearning
In their gaze,
'Neath the drooped lids, burning, burning,
" Through the haze
Of their fringe ; •
Like sun-rays in forests, tracing
Paths, /imp hid.from man's defacing,
Through the leaves.
No vain dreamer she, though strange
AVe her ways;
And her pure thoughts will not range
All her days
With the herd;
Fashion, pleasure, wealth and fame,
Seem to her an empty name,
When she sighs.
•
Give to her the unattained,
Far-away
Knowledge, which but few have gained
In theli day.
Give to her,
AB she gazeth o'er the deep,
Where the peaceful islands Bleep,
Give her peace.
Give, to ease her hungry soul,
And her mind.
Food which ages as they roll
Leave behind.
Give to her
Knowledge, truth and wisdom rare,
With God's sunshine falling fair
Round her path.
Then, withal, give her one friend—
Noble, true,
Who shall love her to the end,
Heaven in view—
Give her one,
Nearer, dearer than a brother,
To be loved beyond all other,
Save her God!
I have looked deep in her eyes,
And can tell;
With such love, and wisdom's prize,
All were well
With her now.
Fortune, fame, friends, pleasure, things,
Changeful, fickle, might take wings—
She would smile I
1, 'who gated deep in hor eyes,
Cannot rest!
"Might I only win this prize,
Ab, how blest !
Guess I right—
With such love as she cou'd give,
One man's life were joy to live.
Guess I right?
NEW PUBLICATIONS.
Appleton's pamphlet edition of Marryatt is
now completed by the publication of "Per
cival Keene." This genial and manly author
can now be had in a complete library of
twelve neat volumes, for $5 50, or fifty cents
the novel. These books, in heavy paper
covers, are plain, neat, well-printed and re
spectable iooking. Sold by Turner Bros.
Co.
_Another of the handsome volumes of
Waverley, by the same firm, has just been
bound up. The present installment holds
within its handsome covers The Bride of Lam
mermoor, The Abbott, The Betrothed, and
,Peveril of the Peak. Considering the vast
amount of reading condensed into these vol
umes, they are wonderfully legible and open
in type. The edition includes steel and wood
engravings, and is at once rich and economi
cal. Turner Bros. have it.
In the "Tin Trumpet,"we find such hearty
fun as never grows stale. The best essence
from a number of the best authors, ancient
and modern, arranged as definitions or expo
sitions of words which are arranged alpha
betically, compose the collection, into which
the dry, crusty, prime old port of British
humor has been necanted. The "'Pin Trum
pet," by an English physician named Paul
Chatfield, was first published in London
in 1836, under the editorship of Jefferson San
ders, Esq. The present American edition is
improved by a little weeding out and a little
planting in; it is got up for handy use in a 50
cent pamphlet,interspersed occasionally with
a good John Leech, and sold to Philadelphia
laughers by Turner Bros.
ART ITEMS
—A subscription has been opened in Flor
etlCC to erect a monument to Rossini in the
church of Santa Croce.
---The National Gallery in London has re
ceived,five pictures of the early Venetian
School, which belonged to the late Sir Charles
Rastlake. It has also acquired the large
painting of Rembrandt, "Christ blessing
Childien," from M. Suermondt, in Aix-la
piapelle,ifor the price of .0 7, t (Jo.
Lambdin, N. V., has just finished a
.charming picture of out-door life, which
sitows a' steady advance iu his power of ex
preisiou, though not a corresponding mental
advance. Re paints better than he did a year
ago, but . clings to the same class of subjects
and expresl3o the same ideas. He should
attempt more variety.
—ln the ancient church of St. Irene, in
Constarilbople, now used as an arsenal, the
Turks last year discovered a fine mosaic on
gold ground, and a crucifix ten feet high,both
of which they thoroughly cleaned and re
stored. Through this discovery the date of
the building of the church has been ascer
tained, and also of the introduction of the
pointed arch into architecture.
—The splendid mausoleum erected byQueen
Victoria to Prince Albert, in the grounds at
Progmore,is rapidly approaching completion.
The entrance hall, supported by massive
granite columns, leads to an octagonal space,
+with three divergent chapels, all of which are
'contracted of precious marbles. In the
.centre stands a sarcophagus of Aberdeen
amn lie, containing the body of the Prince.
ioatmg the paintings, there is one from the
13,14(1. of the Crown Princess Victoria of
Prussia, who intends, also, to contribute a
speeiraerrof her own sculpture to the chapels.
MMMI
The cost of the mansolettm will be more than
C 200,00.
'•We find the following in a German
paper: "The sculptor Von Kreling, in Nur
emberg, is now occupied with the completion
of a work of art, ;which a:rich 'citizen of ein
einhati intends presenting to that city. The
latter has appropriated $60,000 of his pro
perty for the gift. It is a fountain, about
thirty feet in height, crowned with a female
figure, which is now being cast in bronze.
The work is one of extraordinary beauty."
—Mr. Vedder, N. Y., whose powerful
etchings formed one of the chief attractions in
last year's exhibition,has at his studio a series
of very interesting photographs from his own
pencil sketches, which exhibit most remark
able qualities of imagination and power of
drawing? They remind - one of the weird corn.=
positions of Blake, in their strangeness, sug
gestiveness and superiority to common work
in general. Bach drawing illusTates a
thought, and invites and provokes the closest
study.
—The Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar has at
last allowed a reproduction to be made of the
splendid bust of Goethe, by the Swiss sculp
tor, Trippel, which has hitherto been known
only to those who have seen it in the Ducal
library at Weimar. It was made in the year
1789 during Goethe's residence in Rome, and
has always been considered, by the friends of
the poet, as the only satisfactory representa
tion of him in the time of his greatest poetical
activity—of Iphigenia, Tasso, and the First
Part of Faust. The head is that of a mature
Apollo, almost ideal in its beauty, and will be
a great surprise to all who know Goethe's
head only from the later bust by Rauch.
—The finest masterpieces of the old paint
ers in the galleries of Berlin, Dresden and
Florence, have been carefully photographed.
Thcse in the National Gallery of London
have also been reproduced in the same man
ner, and we now see that permission has
heen given to add to the list the pictures in
the Gallery of the Hermitage Palace in St.
Petershurgh. In Rome the privilege has
been denied, in order to keep hp the sale of
engravings of the pictures, from which the
Papal Government derive a small revenue.
The price of two or three hundred photo
graphs, already taken, does not average more
than $1 apicct rand thus, for a comparatively
small sum, the.colleges, academies, libraries
and library societies throughout the - United
States may furnish themselves with most
valuable illustrations of the history of Art.
—Of Palmer's last marble, The Angel at
the Sepulchre—photographs of which are
exposed at Messrs. Earle's—an Albany cor
respondent says:
"The angel is a celestial man, sublime and
awe-inspiring, and yet attractive in his spirit
ual beauty. He sits upon the stone in an atti
tude of perfect repose, suggestive of super
natural power. This perfection of poise is
itself a divine attribute. The face seems to
irradiate the light of heaven, and to be in
stinct with a higher intelligence. The left
hand is clutched, and rests upon the lower
part of the thigh, while the right is extended
on the corresponding knee—the legs naturally
disposed, and the whole contour full of grace
and variety. The drapery falls in harmo
nious folds, light, airy and simple, like our
intuitive conception of angelic robes. The
whole figure is a consummate expression of
supernatural power. It ignores the ordinary
inoications of physical strength; it rises above
the majestic symbolism of the intellect, and
gives a true type of spiritual being. This is
a most difficult problem of art, but the sculp
tor has accomplished it.
"The features have great beauty united
with masculine power."
—Of the suicidal attempt of certain Ameri
can artists to exclude foreign pictures by
making custom-house difficulties—endeavor
ing to impede American critical edacation—
Putnam's Magazine observes:
"Very few foreign pictures are now im
ported. No collections are brought over by
enterprising men like Messrs. Pilgerau and
Cadart,. We are obliged to depend upon the
scant production of our own men, and,
Heaven save the mark! upon chromo litho
graphs. What is the reason of this change?
It is simply the result of the quiet operation
of a strinaent rule which is now brought to
bear upon picture importers, that every pic
ture shall pay duty on entering port. The
paintings of Dole are In the CU3tOM House
waiting a decision as to whether or not our
public shall be allowed to see them and judge
it it would like to keep them, and if it decides
that it does not greatly care fur them,whether
or not they can be sent back without putting
the owner to the expense of duty. These pic
tures, among ,—
tLem the 'Gambling Saloon at
Baden-Baden,' the largest picture Dore has
ever painted, have been imported for exhibi
tion, and unul within a snort time govern
ment has allowed the importation in bulk of
pictures intended for exhibition without de
manding duty except in case of sale. In this
way the American public has been enabled
by the enierprise and sagacity of certain deal
ers, to enjoy the sight of many of the best pic
tures produced in Europe. * * * *
"And who ha raised this question y A
few of our own artists, and,as we know their
names, we think it just to the artiste we have
who aratabove such pettiness and narrow
LICEb of mind, to say, that a few of our least
valued painters, failing in their endeavor to
induce Congress to prevent the importation
of foreign pictures by excessive duties, have
succeeded in carrying their point in the way
we have indicated. Their argument fr, `For
eign painters are driving American painters
oft the field. Let us put a stop to the ire
portation of foreign pictures if we can, but,
failing that, let us impede and worry the im
porters all we can.' And they seem to be
cleverly succeeding. But while our pest
painters now, as ever, have no 'difficulty in
selling their pictures, We public seems not to
have its appetite fur the pictures of the bad
ones increased by their mauceuvres. We can
not have cake it seems, out the deprivation
does not appear to make us hanker after
mouldy bread."
—The Evening *Post publishes the follow
ing account of the painting of Kaulbach's fa
mous picture, "The Reformation," under a
Catholic king and in Catholic Bavaria :
"Among Kaulbach's historical paintings
his 'Era of the Reformation' is probably his
best. An excellent story has just made its
appearance in an article entitled 'Confidential
Communications about Ludwig}:sif Bavaria,'
relating to the origin of this now celebrated
picture. The character Of the old 'Art-Sing'
is here well shown. Kaulbach was in Munich
busy in making out the plan of his great pic
ture of the Reformation, designed for the
lobby of the Berlin &iuseum. Almost before
this original design had been lightly sketched,
and as the artist sat before it, chalking, wip
ing out, and smoking very Industriously, King
Ludwig was seen approaching Kaulbach's
easel from a roundabout way,zig-zag,and as if
unsafe upon his limbs. The artist took no
notice of the approach or the King and
worked away quite undisturbed, while the
latter 'attired over'his shoulders most atten
. Lively at the subject of the painting,whicli he
could hardly make out. Suddenly, as if a
thought had struck him, the King cried out
as in astonishment : ' W hat are you making
there, friend Kaulbach ?"The design of the
Reformation picture, .your Ma ; lesiY, designed
as the sixth fresco for Berlin, answered the
artist loudly, In order to make himself well
heard, never turning round to see the King,
but smoking and working on big subject. Tao
King, as if he had met with a cold-water

sbock, cried out, his voice vibrating .
'What! the. Reformation? And without my
knowledge? Who hatfpgiven. the order?'
'Command from Berlin4wan the answer of
the "artist, still quietly chalkingin his figures.
'The Reformation?' cried
M , Out, the old gentle
ari, still louder, 'and feeßerlin? And suck'
a great master as Kaulbach gives himself to
the work? That is the most vexatious thing
I have ever experienced!" ''The artist now
turned round, raised bimself from his stool,
stood erect before the King. put his glasses
away up out of the road and his velvet
working-cap to the right,and then said loudly,
firmly and distinctly: 'Your Majesty, you
forget that I am a Protestant.' King Lud
wig now became greatly confused, and
so excited that he could not find the
right . words to make himself. under
stood, but then added: ,` Nay, you Misunder
stand me, Kaulbach., I will not fall out
about the confessional side of the question; in
my country the Protestants have always been
free, and I have even placed Luther in my
Walhalla. No, my anger is directed to the
artistic mission of the subject. And how will
you then paint a thought,how will you plasti
cally represent an intellectual opinion ? It is
unworthy of so great an artist to give him
self up to such an artistic aberration. And
the King spoke so in his , warmth that he
walked up and down in the studio, stamped
the ground pettishly a number of times, and
cried out all manner of incomprehensible sen
tences, while Kaulbach had long been at his
work again. At last the old King seized an
antique chair, which' stood near Kaul
bach's easel, and spoke loudly, as
if to himself: 'Paint the Reformation! And
for Berlin, tool Do you know—and therein
you see, how impartial and objective I am—
I have advised the Grand Duke of Weimar to
glorify the Reformation and its times upon
the Wartburg? there belongs its glorification.
There it has at least historical ground; from
thence it has proceeded. And what do they
wish with the Reformation in Berlin? What
has brought the historical upstarts to the idea
of the Reformation? How dare they appro
priate tolthemselves its spiritual significance,
in order to lend its glory to their military
state? Upon the Wartburg' belongs the Re
formation or even Wittenberg for aught I
care. B ut to Berlin!'
"The old King was in such great anger
that he seized the afore-mentioned chair with
both hands, and threw it so violently upon
the ground that it cracked and nearly tum
bled to pieces. He took a few turns more,
then pulled his hat low down over his eyes,
and without further greeting left the room,
and was seen no more that day, though the
doors were heard violently banged to, as the
exasperated monarch went from apartment
to apartment."
How 'bey Slalle Popes.
An article in a recent number of Cham
bers's Journal gives the following descrip
tion of the manner in which a Pope is made :
Assume a vacancy in the chair of the so
called Vicar of Christ, the Pope is dead. Who
is to be his successor ? First of all, the fact
must be authenticated in proper form;
and to do this one of the offs
dale of the Camera visits the death
chamber. Standing at the door, and striking
it with a gilt mallet, the Cameolenga, receiv
ing no reply, enters the room, taps the corpse
on the forehead with a silver mallet, and then
falling on his knees, proclaims the Pope to be
no more. The tolling of the great bell of St.
Peter's announces - to the people of Rome that
they have lost their sovereign and the Church
her head. Consistently with the theory of
personal government prevailing in the Holy
City, the Pope's death is practically an an
nouncement of the tefnporary suspension of
all government. All political and all judicial
authority ceases; the law courts suspend their
sittings; anarchy reigns_ This state of law
lessness continues for nine days—that is, till
the appointment of a fresh Pope—and this
period was tor centuries distinguished by out
reges that were a scandal to the government
of the Holy City.
The day after the Pope's death the Cardinals
meet and break what is called the Piscatorial
ring.. This ring has a history of its own—a
more romantic history probably than any
other ring in Europe—and if it could speak it
might tell of some startling secrets about the
Vatican. It is, we believe, a plain gold ring,
bearing the effigy of SL Peter. Its principal
use is to sign Apostolic briefs; and it has been
used for this purpose by the Popes from the
earliest ages of the Chut ch. Looking through
the recently published correspondence of Na-
poleon 1., a few days ago, we came across an
interesting incident. When Napoleon issued
his orders for the seizure of the prayer books
and papers of Pius VII., he laid particular
stress upon this ring; he wished it to be seized
at all hazards; and when it could not
be found His Majesty ordered
an cificer of gen cturntes to de
mand it from the Holy father. This was
the crowning affront of Napoleon to the
Pope: and Pius VIL. hesitated for some
moments whether to comply with the rude
Imperial request or not. A. captive, how
ever, and at the Emperor's mercy, it was im
possible to resist; and at last the Holy Father,
taking a little leathern purse out of his pocket,
produced the fisherman's ring, broke it in
two, as it is broken on the death of every
Pontiff, and handed the pieces to the gen
d'arme. Through Prince Borghese , the
broken ring was forwarded to the Emperor
at Paris; but it afterwards found its vtay to
the Vatican, and ' now frequently adorns the
finger of the Supreme Pontiff.
The funeral of a Pope is a striking and gor
geous ceremony. It is not till the ninth day
after his death that the Cardinals re-assemble
to elect a successor; and the Ballot society
will be glad to hear that the Pope is elected,
like the member of a club, by ballot.
The right of election vests in the College of
Cardinals; and this right is inviolable; noth—
ing can touch it. It is a personal privilege,
and one that survives even excommunication
—the highest sentence of the Church. Neither
heresy nor crime can disfranchise a Cardinal;
once a Cardinal, always a Cardinal, and,
though beyond the pale of the Church, he
may present himself at the Vatican on the
day of election with his conclave, and assert
his right to cast his vote with the greatest
Princes of the Church for the Sovereign Pon—
tiff.
The modus operandi is this : The Car&
nala, attended by their conclavists, and ac
companied by a host of high officials, assem
ble on the day of the election at the Tatican,
and are there all locked up together, like an
English jury till they have delivered them
selves of their verdict—that is, till they have
made a Pope. No name is proposed;, nn
speeches are made; hardly a word is spoken
a Quaker meeting could not be quieter.
What takes place is this : In the centre of
the room stands a chalice, or what we may
call an election urn. Each Cardinal in turn
writes upon q slip of paper the name of the
candidate for whom he votes; and this slip
of paper, doubled up, is, by the coficlavists,
deposited in the chalice. 'When the votes of
the college have been thus collected, the
names of the candidates are read aloud, and
the number of votes announced.
The Pope must be elected by a majority of
two-thirds of the college; and if any name at
tains this number on the first ballot,of course
there is an end of the business; the Pope has
been picked. But if no one gets this num
ber, the voting papers are burned, and the
people outside the college, waiting for the
verdict, know when they see the puff of
smoke that they are still without a sovereign.
A second ballot is then taken, ind, if Peiseti4
sary;a3hirdi:' But 'it is understood Oat! atil
the third ballot no Cardinal:Will'Vete a'Second';
time fort
.the same candidete. ;;If, therefore,'
be still adheres to hitri,first choice, he writes=
tiemitie voting paper which being'
interpreted, , Pieans that he voteSifor no one,
and thus, at the third ballot, by this procetls
of casting out, a majority of two-thirds is ob
tained, and the Pope is made. No; not
quite made; for the-courts of France, Spain
and Austria possess each, in turn, a veto
upon the vote'of the College of Cardinals;
and they may exercise this veto without a
word of explanation. It is a simple case of
black- balling. We do , not find that it has
been very frequently exercised; but as lately
as 1880 the Court of Madrid exercised its
right by black-balling Cardinal ,
This power, however, can only be exercised
once; and there are cases on record whore the
college, having set their hearts on a man
whom they knew to be obnoxious to one of
the courts (sayto France), have first of all
put up a Pope in Buckram—that is, a Cardi
nal whom they knew' must be black-balled by
France; and then,having cleared the ground,
elected their own man without risk. Portugal
and Naples have at different times 'put in
their claims to the privilege of black-balling
the Pope; but these have never been allowed
by the Sacred College; and now that Spain
has thrown off the Bourbons, she, too, we
suppose, will lose her right of controlling the
election of the next Pope. If she does, the
election will practically vest in. the hands of
France and Austria; and there can be little
doubt, in that case, that the keys of St. Peter
and the fishermen's ring will pass into the
hands of the dark-browed and silent young
prelate who, by a rare stroke of fortune, pos
sesses at once the confidence of the Times
and the Tuileries, of the Pope and the peo
ple of Rome. What the conclave thinks of
Cardinal Lucien Bonaparte we have, of
course, no means of knowing; but if we were
making a book upon the event—and those
who know Italy, know that it is frequently
done—we should certainly lay on the first fa
vorite.
Perhaps there is one more fact which we
ought to mention; that is, that the Pope need
not necessarily be either a Cardinal or even
a priest. The Sacred College may, if they
think fit, make a Pope out of a layman; they
did it on one occasion, and if the Sacred Col
lege wish to pay the "Isle of Saints" a com
pliment, we know no reason why they should
not place the tiara on the brows of the learned
and accomplished canonist, wile is perhaps,
on the whole, the most distinguished lay re
presentative of the Catholic faith and Catholic
ideas in this country, and also a member of
the House of Commons.

Nine Houses Burned—The Whole
Town in Danger—Loss 625,000.
[From the Wilmington Commerriaii
NEW CASTLE, March 20.— AL quarter before 9
o'clock, last evening (Friday), smoke was seen
issuingfroM a . large frame building. In Delaware
Street. owned by F Leekler, and occupied by
John Herbert, grocer; F. Leckler, tin-store; and
J. Wilmot, shoe-store. Back of this building was
a frame storehouse and stable. The fire spread
very rapidly, and in a few minutes an immense
flame Illuminated the darkness around. Having
no water works or steam-engines!—nothing bat
an old.and leaky hand engine that could not be
kept supplied with water ten minutes at a time
vvi,b water from pumps—it was thought that
nothing could save the town but the immediate
arrival of steam fire engines from Wilmington.
This was soon confirmed by the row of three
story brick houses adjoining the stores, and
owne d by W m . Haines, yli7abeth Dalby and
Joel Pedrick taking• fire on their roofs, and the
work 01 destruction did not esmso until three
were destroyed, and others only saved by the ap
plication of water on their roofs. Just at this
time a three-story brick house on Market street,
owned by Miss Darrah, and occupied by Mrs. E.
Williams, widow of the late Edward Williams,
took tire from sparks, and although every effort
was made to stay the fire with buckets, nothing
could be done, and it was soon burnt entirely
out. The families in the neighborhood all moved
out, and furniture, bedding, beds, and every im
aginable article of household goods and
kitchen furniture lay scattered' over the town.
The citizens of the town worked nobly with the
means they bad, and receive the thanks of those
whose property they saved.
Thegloom was lighted and hearts rejoiced
when the Wilmington firemen arrived with the
steam engines, and they will long be remembered
as the men who saved the town.
At this writing we learn that the following
were insured:
John Herbert, on ,contents of store, $2,000; F.
Leckler, on buildings,sl,ooo; F. Leckler, on store,
$1,000; J. Wilmonon store, $1 000; Miss Darrell,
on house, $3,000; Joel Pedrick, on house and
goods, $BOO. Widow Anderson loses all her fur
niture, no insurance. Mr. Win. ilalnes's two
houses were insured for five hundred dollars each.
Mrs. Dalbv'e house insured for $4OO.
The total amount of property destroyed
amounts to $25,000, though some estimate it as
low as $12,000.
Thomas Early, furniture, no insurance.
Mr. Thomas Frazier had Just moved out of one
of Mr. Heine/hi - houses the Satiirday before
Mrs. Williams's insurance on furniture, $1,500.
Tho wind was southeast, and the only wonder
is that the whole town was not destroyed. The
Town Hall was on fire several times, and several
other buildings.
, ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.
The origin of the fire is not known, bat Mr.
Herbert, in whose store the flames were first dis
covered, supposes that a coal oil lamp, which was
lighted in the store, exploded, and the flames
spread very rapidly.
INCIDENTS, ETC.
The:Wilmliagton firemen arrived just at the
right moment. As they were on their way from
the depot, the sparks from Mrs. Williams house
were falling very rapidly on the Presbyterian
Church, whicifwas only a few feet off, but a de
luge of , water was immediately poured upon it
andlhe burning building, the flames wore sub
dued, and the church saved.
About halt a dozen active men,at the outbreak of
the fire,immediately went to the top of the houses
adjoining, and kept them constantly wet,and
thus' saved about half a dozen of the finest houses
in the town.
The residence of Mrs. Williams, which is about
half a square from the place where the fire origi
nated, might have been saved had preeautiona
been taken to have some person on the roof to
put out the sparks; but all the male inmates
being absent from town. the ladies of the house
were very much seared and linmediately locked
all the doors and refused admittance to anyone
until the house actually took fire, and they
were forced to flee. The furniture was nearly all
saved.
Mr.'Herbert was agent of the Adama Express
Company, and ^ had a money box containing
about $lOO, belonging to it, in his store, whloh ho
found empty in the street this morning, some
scoundrel having stolen it and transferred the
contents to his own' pocket.
Aftbr the fire some of the citizens of Now Castle
spread tables in the . Court-house and furnished
plenty of. good thinga •to the Wilmington fire
men.• and whoever felt disposed to partake. In
the morning just before - the departure of
Wilmington for home, a splendid breakfast was
prepared and full justice done it. ,
The Delaware and Washington steam fire en
gines were the only once thist,woro present from
this city. A special ' train was chartered, and
reached there between 11 and 12 o'clock,', and in
the morning it was attached to the regular train,
whleit leayes New •castie ,at: 7.45 A. M., 'and the
Wilmingtonlans arrived home about 8 o'clock„
very fired and' sleepy. nnd With,a very. good Opin
ion of the citizens of Now Castle.
