Barker's.—-I n visiting the Tonsorial
palace of Mr. Parker, of No. 11 East 3rd
is somewhat surprised by the
imposing appearance his establishment
presents. The stranger on entering finils
is reflection shadowed by five handsome
mirrors of 5 feet 6 inches x 5 feet 6 inches
composed of the purest qualtity of French
plate glass, whilst in the space between
each mirror hangs an oil painting from
the studio of H. L. Tatnal, well and fa
vorably known among artists, now a ma
rine scene, now a landscape of unsur
passed beauty.
At the furtin
establishment stands a circular
stand the top of which is composed of
the finest Italian marble, and contains
large basins which are supplied with
hot and cold water. Through eight
•rbly finished silver mounted spigots
he central one supplying hot «and cold
water together for shainpooning pur
poses. Immediately in the rear of the
shainpooning table stands a con-case of
colosal proportions constructed of tlie
finest qualtity of black walnut highly
finished and embellished with plate glass
sliding doors. The walls are papered in
panels in intimitation of fresco and pre
sents a rich appearance. Running the
full longth of the establishment are some
handsome reeling settees composed of
black walnut and ash with nickte plated
arm rests. The chairs are upholstered in
the most elaborate manner with due re
gards to the ease and comforts of the pa
trons.
The floor is bf mosiac pattern being
heated throughout. The artists employed
by this house are the most skillful of any

can safely say I have not found my es

Liens on Vbssbls.—I n the Court of
Common Pleas No. 1 before his Honor
Judge Pierce, the case of Merchant &
Co., against the brig Odorilla was tried.
The plaintiffs under the act of 183Ö at
tached the vessels for material furnished
in her building. Tho vessel was build
ing at Smyrna, Del., and by the contract
between the contractor and Merchant &
Co., she was to become the property of
tho latter upon the payment of the first
inwtalincnt of purchase money. After
tho first instalment had been paid tho
materials in question were furnished.
The defence was that the act only ap
plied to materials furnished within this
Commonwealth, and, secondly, that the
act only applies to contracts made with
the master or owner of the vessel. These
materials were furnished under a con
tract made by the contractor for the
building of the vessel after she had
passed into the ownership of Merchant
I & Co., by the payment of the first instal
ment of the purchase money. The latter
were the owners, and never made any
contract with plaintiffs. On this latter
point the court directed a verdict for the
defendants. J. Warren Coulton, Esq.,
for plaintiffi, and Henry Flanders, Esq.,
for defendants.— Phila. Teleyraph.
An Item of Interest.—D r. Swayne

perfect cure. I tliink its efficacy should

breadth of the land. You can publish
this If you think proper.
Yours respectfully,

Bad Boys.— In the western part of
the Third and Tenth Wards, the boys
have been engaged for the past two
weeks in stealing ash barrels and boxes
and making bon fires of them. Frequent
ly they empty the ashes in the street, and
make away with the barrels, and in
several instances they entered the yards
of some of the residents, and after scat
terin'* the ashes around stole the barrels
and boxes. The nuisance is getting in
tollerable, and a close watch is being
kept for the rascals.

Game.—T he farmers of Delaware
would do well to prserve the game
their place as far as possible from the
slaughter by sportsmen from the larger
cities. There are men in Philadelphia
who employ great numbers of men to kill
and send game to them te sell at high
rates, while the fanners gel nothing for
trespassing on their property. The Press
says :—That some of them had employed
in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware,
to gun for them, and keep them supplied
with game. One individual stated that
he had four men in the vicinity of Havre
de-Grace, Maryland, who kept him sup
died with canvass-back, red-head, and
dack-head ducks. Said he :
quiet plentiful now*, and thus far w f e have
had good shooting. I supply my
with powder, shot, and decoy-ducks, and
all the necessary outfit, and pay them a
stipulated sum ]>er week, or a commission
on every duck they kill. I find it better
to pay so much per head,because the men
work harder, and generally pan-out
game. They ship me each day sometimes
as high as twenty-five pairs, and upon
these I make a pretty good profit." It
was ascertained from other parties that
"pot-hunters" were employed to slaughter
rabbits, quail and pheasants in New
Jersey and Pennsylvania a deer in the lat
ter State and Minnesota ; prairie-chicken
in Illinois, and woodcock in Delaware.—
The havoc made by these sportsmen may
be inferred when it is stated that five of
them last weck killen five hundred and
eighty-four quail, seventy-eight pheasants
and one hundred and two rabbits. As
intimated, the supply of game comes from
different sections and its is either brought
to the dealers by the huntsmen them
selves or shipped by agents located at
prominent gunning points. Vast quanti
ties arrive daily from the mountains re
gions of Pennsylvania and from Canada,
Gloucester, Salem, Atlantic, Cumberland
and Cape May counties, New Jersey.
The major portion from our neighboring
State is gathered in the latter connty,
where the gunning this season is un
usually good owing to the fact that the
Game Society of the State has repeatedly
restocked the locality with quail and
pheasant. The following were the re
tail prices yesterday : Quail, from $2 to
$3 per dozen ; pheasants,|$1.25" to $1.50
I>er pair ; canvas-back ducks, $2*50
air ; red-heads, per pair $1.50; blaçk
eads, $1 per pair; woodcock, $1 per pair;
English snipe $3 per dozen ; prairie-chick
ens, $1 to $1.35 per pair; rabbits 50 cents
per pair. The stock of venison was
large, although that exposed for sale was
in prime condition. Minnesota and
Pennsylvania invoices commanded from
$15 to $18 per hundred pounds. Terrapin
was in demand, saltwater at $15 to $20
per dozen,and Juuiatas at from $10 to $15
per dozen. Crabs were dull at from 40
to 50 cents per eozen, and lobsters brought
from 12 to 15 cents per pound. The sea
son for green turtles is almost over, and
but few w ere in the market. These w ere
from Florida, and sold at from 17 to 20
cents per pound. There was a large exhibit
of snappers from Delaware and New Jer
sey, which brought from 15 to 18 cents per
pound.

ARREST OF SEVERAL PARTIE8 SUPPOSED
TO HE CONNECTED WITH THEM.
Ever since the wholesale robberies
which were committed along Market
street, between 21st and 22d, on the night
of October 28th last, the police have been
looking after the burglars, and last night
officers Hope and* Sharp arrested a young
man named Edwin Pierce, on the Bran
dywine bridge, on suspecion of being one
of the men connected with the Affair.
Before they had gone far with their pri
soner, however, they were assaulted by
several men and in the melle Price esaap
ed. The officers succeeded in Jarresting
two of the assailants, named John Mullen
and Wm. Townsend, who were brought
to the police station.
This morning Pierce was again arrest
ed, in the cabin of thie sloop Alaska , at
the Brandywine mills, where he had se
creted himself. He was locked up, in the
police station, and this eveeing all three
of the parties will be given a hearing.
For the Delaware Gazette
Mr. Editor :—It may be interesting to
some people to read a short sketch of the
Townsend family— that is to say tlie
family ot the late Samuel Townsend,
who died in Odessa, many years ago.
He had ten children, as follows : Sarah
Ann, Richard, John, Elizabeth, Samuel,
Israel, Edmund, Hannah, Ester and Mary
Ann. Elizabeth died nearly sixty years
ago ; Richard died on the 8th day of Au
gust, 1832 ; and from that date until the
14th of the present month, which was 44
years, 3 months and 0 days, there has not
been a death among any of the brothers
and sisters, and before John died, or say,
at the first of tlie present w eek, there was
living 4 brothers and 4 sisters, whose
average ages was 01 years and 9 months.
Few families can say as much. S. T.
BIG FEET.
The Smyrna Times says:—The largest
pair of shoes ever made in this tow n, i
not in the United States, was made by
Messrs. Johnson, here, last week, for a
negro boy of seventeen years living w ith
one of the Cochrans, at Middletow n.
His feet are so large that no shoe meas
ure is long enough to take their size. No
measure stick is made for a large size than
"twelves," but this boy's foot, measured
with a carpenter's rule, will draw at least
"fourteen" in size, according to the best
calculations that could be made.

The Cause of the Cuban Insub

the killing of the captain, first mate, first

MR. OTTENDORFER'S REPORT—
TILDEN'S MAJORITY 8,090.
From the Staats Zeitung.
New Orleans, Nov. 14.—The com
risli
plete election returns from the pa
commissioners, forwarded according to
law in duplicates, most ol which have al
ready arrived here, while the others are
on their way, their contents having been
telegraphed, show that the Democratic
majority in Louisiana is 8,099. Never
theless, the Returning Board will declare
the Republic electors for President and
Vice-President to be chosen, and this will •
be done by rejecting the whole vote of
some parishes and part of the vote of oth
er parishes, all under a pretence whose
absurdity can be shown in case an invest
igation should be set
It seems as if the Returning Board
could not be restrained from the execu
tion of this design by any means what
ever. Inaccessable to reason or to moral
pressure. The members of the Return
ing Board despise public opinion and
point to the result of the election in most
of the Northern States as a proof of tlie
readiness of a majority of the people to
sanction frauds and usurpations of the
w orst kind.
Under these circumstances the gentle
men from the North who are now here
w ill accomplish little; yet they can col
ect material for an impartial report and
distribute it among the people. But even
this, considering the indifferences of the
American people for fairness and justice,
will only serve as a funeral discourse
over the grave of the Republic.

Spe îal Dispatch from the the Tiinep,
New Orleans,M ovember 15—111*. M.
—It lias been discovered that in the
parishes of Iberia, Iberville, West Baton
llouge and St. Martin the Republicans
voted for only three electors—the electors
at-large and the elector for the district.
This may reduce the vote for five Repub
licans so much that it will make it impos
sible for the Returning Board to countin
more than three Hayes electors. Seven
hundred troops will be uuder açns to
morrow as a guard for tlie Returning
Board, and General Sheridan will be in
command. Northern ar.d Eastern capi
talists are stopping their remittances and
closing business relations with New Or
leans. M.P. H.
Tlie Legislature of Alabama organized
yesterday, II. W. Cobb elected President
of the Senate, and N. N. Clement« Speak
er of the House. The Governor's mes
sage was read,
instituted in all the State departments,
and «'alls special attention to the fact that,
the State bonds, which were sold at GO to
70 cents on tlie dollar when the Governor
came into office in 1874, now command
02 to 03 cents. This the Governor at
tributes to the confidence of the people
in a government of their own choice.
The penitentiary which, under previous
administrations, cost the 8 täte a large,
sum of money, is now a source of consi
derable revenue. Immigration is tend
ing to Alabama, and her public schools
are prosperous and increasing in useful
ness.
The steadiness of the gold premium
notwithstanding the critical condition of
affairs, is a remarkable phenomenon. Al
though republican papers and speakers
made all sorts of crazy predictions in re
gard to a shock to the public credit and a
sudden increase of the gold premium in
ease of Tilden's election, yet the price of
gold showed a slight decline when the
democratic victory was first announced,
and has remained at about the same
figure ever since, notwithstanding the ai>
prehension excited in the public mind by
republican attempts to count in Hayes.
