A poor family ha3 been found in New York, sewing shirts at the rate ot thirty cents a dozen. The fashionable mm 'shops keep run ning in New Yoik on Sunday in open defiance of the law. The Chicago presj is compiling for publication the speeches made by Mr. Blame during the recent campaign.' It is now darkly hinted that' Mr. Blaine is working to defeat President Arthur for the New York Senator- ship. Bob Ingersoll characterizes a3 an impossibility the prayer which the Chaplain offered for wisdom in Con gress. Eleven hundred and nine woman were registered in Boston this year to vote for School Committee, aga'mat 701 last year. In 1832 General Jackson wa3 elected President, receiving 219 electoral votes, just as Governor Cleveland has. It augurs well. The people ot Florida voted at the late election in favor ot holding a con vention to revise Their State Constitu" tion. The vttj was: Yea, 31,684; no, 28.130. Cape May is early in the field with an invitation to Gov. Cleveland lo spend a portion of next Summer there. He replies that next Summer is'too off, yet, to made plans for. Louisiana is teeling .the low price received tor sng3r, and in common with all the sugar producing districts of the South, will next year greatly re duce the acreage planted in cane. The exports of general merchandise troni the port of New York for. the week ended Saturday, December 6th, amounted to $9,456,220, or more than $4,000,000 increase on the previous week. John McDonald, of Porter township. Schuylkill county, Pa,, was willing to die as soon as a Democratic President was elected. Scarcely had the electors donetheir work when McDonald ex pired. Mr. Blaine claims that Senator Gorman, Chairman of the Democratic Executive committee, was instrumental in inducing Dr. Burchard to make the "Rum, Romanism and Rebellion" speech. . A Canadian constable, who by gross negligence allowed a prisoner to es cape, has been sentenced, after convic tion by a jury, to pay $5 fine and $65 costs, and to be imprisoned until he so pays. : The Missouri State Board of Health rnncdes that an unregistered doctor may sell hi3 patent medicines, but in sists that he cannot advertise them withnnt renderiner himselt liable, to prosecution under the S.ate laws. The people of Nevada rejected at the late election a proposition to hold a con vention to revise the Constitution ot their States, the vote being 3,571 against it and 2,810 in its favor, a total vote o1 6,381, against 12.797 cast at the same time for Presidential electors. Col. Vilas, of Wisconsin, depicts an atmosphere of sweet content and bland serenity as having descended upon the great Northwest since the election ot Cleveland, and attributes it to the fact that.no Republicans expect anything of Cleveland, and no Democrats desire anything. According to an elaborate investiga tion prosecuted by C. L. Greene & Co., New York, the data available kfor an estimate of the cotton crop of 1684-,85 indicate a production of 5,800,000 bales The crop of l883-'84 was "5,714 000 bales; that ot lS82-'83 was 6.932.000 bales. The losses by fire in the United States in the first eleven months of the current year amount to about twice the interest on the public debt, and about equal the internal revenue receipts ot the Government. The losses in the last seven years are within a small fraction ot the value ot three cotton crop combined, though in the last five years there has been a steady, and latterly a rapid, increase from year to year. ; : - -' - - " - - A man mowing took off the top of a rooster'f head He pasted it on and used St. Jacobs Oil.

The storm signal was flying to-day. There were four white tramps lodged at the guard house last night. The thermometer this morning at several points in the city indicated 18 degrees above zero. Richard Stowe, colored, was charged with disorderly conduct for which the Mayor this morning imposed a fine of $3. Notwithstanding the cold there were plenty of people seeking for Christmas goods to-day, making the streets and stores have a lively appearance. Have you seen those beautiful hem stitched plain white silk handkerchiefs at Dyer's? They are the best goods in the market, t This is splendid weather in which to kill bogs and from what we hear from friends in the country the time is being weli improved for that purpose. Near ly all the farmers who have hogs to kill are busy making meat of them. We learn that the Rev. Wm. IL Lewis, of tho Diocese of Pittsburg, has accepted the call of the Vestry to the Rectorship of St. James' Parish, in this city, and will take charge on the 18th ot January, the Second Sunday after Epiphany. Rev. P. J. Carraway, Presiding Elder of the Wilmington District of the North Carolina Conference, will preach a1 Fifth Street M.E. Church next Sunday morning and night at the usual 'hours. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper will be administered after the morning sermon. Christmas is drawing nearer, and with each succeeding day the little ones are becoming more anxious to know what good Santa Ciaus will bring them.- The old gentloman ba3 always proven kind to the children of Wilmington, and we predict that he will maintain his reputation for generous thoughtful- ness on the approaching holiday. occa son. We hope so, at any rate. ' Indications. Forfthe South Atlantic States, fair weather, Northerly winds, stationary, followed by higher, temperature. The Christmas Market. Meiss. Melton & Garrell are making biff DreDarations for their Christmas Market next week. In addition to an unusually larpe supply of fine meats tbey will have a fall line of poultry of all kinds and roasting pigs and in view of the fact that it will be a busy week. they beg of their customers to send in orders at once, guaranteeing prompt delivery in every instance.

In making our enquiries a day or two since regarding the pilot boat now in course of construction at the dry dock, we tailed, in the short space of time at our command, to obtain some impor tant particulars regarding the pretty little craft. She is being constructed for Mr. Thomas Evans, ot this city, and when completed will be a credit to his enterprise as well as to the work manship of those who have the care ot her construction. She will probably be launched in the early part of Janu ary, although she will not be fully pre pared tor service for a week or two after that time. Her name, of course, will not bo announced until the launch ing but there is already much specula tion at the subject. The Festival To-Nlsrht. We again call the attention of our readers to the above entertainment to be given by tho ladies ths. evening at the "Holmes" house, coruer of Third and Chestnut streets. The delicacies of the season will bo prepared in such a manner as to tempt the palate ot the most abstemious, and bright eyes and graceful forms will give an additional charm to the festive gathering. It is not, however, for the simple gratifica tion of the appetitejhat we call the at tention of our people to this festival but for the higher reason that it is given for the benefit of St James' Home, one of the noblest charities in our State, and one that is doing a work of incal culable good in our city. The Scriptures say, "to do good and distribute forget not," and we hope to see the injunction carried out most fully this evening. It could not be done in a better cause. Tie Weather. We have been told repeatedly during thejday, and especially in the morning hours, that it was a cold day. In fact, it was said to us so frequently that it became monotonous, only varied by the difference in the descriptive adjec tives which accompanied the declara tion. We knew that it was cold weather all the time, without being told of it. Wo found out by actual ex perience that it was growing rapidly colder in the early hours of last night, and, bad thero " been any daubt, the rain, which froze as fast as it fell, would have dispelled the illusion. , It grew colder all night and this morning was the coldeet by far we have had this year. It ii doubtful If we have any colder weather during the remainder of the season, and we would be entire" ly satisfied with a more genial atmos phere from now until the daisies begin to bloom again. Llppiucott's Magazine. LippincoWs forj January opens with the first instalment of a serial entirely different in character from the ordinary novel, and mudh better suited to publication in this form. It is entitled On this Side," and will depict the experiences and impressions of a party of English people, a baronet and his friends, during a tour in the United States. They have not yet made their appearance on the scene, bat Mr- Job Ketchum, an eccentric but thoroughly generous and hospitable Westerner, with a pretty and gentle English wifet has been notified of their coming and is making preparations to receive them There is a rich vein ol humor in the dialogues and descriptions, and what especially challenges attention is the thorough knowledge, of the peculiar habits and characteristics , of typical Americans and English shown by the writer, and the fine touches by which their contrasts are brought out in con versation and action, with plenty of playful satire bnt with a total , freedom from caricature. The author is Jr.: U. Baylor, whose former serial, ; "The Perfect Treasure,' proved Terj. attrac- tive to readers of the Magazine.' There are of coarse many othgr fine articles and attractive papers ia this issae. Lippin colTs opens the New Year handsomely with this issue. 1884. NO. 303 NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
