DENS OF VICE TO TRAP THE UNWARY. i PLACES THAT SHOULD BE AVOIDED i i. lhe *'«ent eases of bunko swindling that I bavo c ? me tü on Front street have at tr,lctc ^ a 8 rent deal of attention to that very unsavory locality. The schemes and u 8 t# concocted and put in operation by the habitues of the dens there are numerous aud ingenious. It is hardly safe for u stranger to wander alone along the street, much less to enter one of the vile licensed holes where sharers arc continually laying in wait for victims. Not one-third of the cases of robbery and assault that occur there are ever reported, the victims in most instances being ashamed to make known their loss or to seek the aid of the jiollce. The officers themselves are of course not ullowed to cuter any of the dive« unless called u(>on, but they are kept busy warning and protecting intoxicated men and •'grecnles" who arc being led into the toils, The sharper« and runners who frequent the haunts, s|H»t their victim, particularly If he apjicursto have money. 11c is approached by a supposed friend, perhaps given u cigar, and invited to take a drink If lie yields to the invitation he is gone, for one glass of the vile Ce -oc lion sold for liquoi renders him inen| able. The rest is always the same, Htopefied aud bewildered ' and without nioney, he is hustled into the street, and wanders otfa poorer, wiser, and sicker man. A few days ago a stranger entered a well known ranch near Market street, apparently sober, wearing a silk lint aud wcll-tUtiug clothes. He was seen to go In. Inside of an hour he hurriedly eamc out, Ills clothes disordered, Ids face haggard and in place of the silk ilto sporting an old slouch hat. When questioned afterwards by the j>nlico he said that he hardly knew what hspi»encd or how he got ont. A favorite scheme is to entice those who arrive on the cars and are in Ignorance of the city. Not long since a stranger having some business in this city started for the train. Going along Front street he entered un "eating house" and after having some lunch took a glass of liquor. Aliuosc lin mediately lie began to l#*l stupid and under the circcts of some drug. Fearing that all was not right he hastened out and was probably saved the loss of his watch and money. Upon entering he had usked the in attendance what time the next train for Philadelphia left and was told "not for two hours," although he afterwards learned it started in a few iniuutcs. The presence of the low saloons is a dis grace to the city, and the Mayor has issued stringent orders to his odicers to do all in their j>owcr to' bring the hangers-on, who prey upon the unsuspecting, to Justice, proprietors are very careful not to directly implicate t hcinMelves in any manner, but oiler, it is charged, the shelter of their places to the swindler«. Hardly a day passe« but that a watch or pocket book is missing. Three-fourths of the arrests lbr drunkenness made in the city arc along Front street, aud two-thirds of that number betweeu Market und Walnut streets. Mayor Wales feel* assured that the evil will not be abated so long as the »y stein of license now iu vogue continues. He favors the. living of the license fee at such a ligure that the cheap and nasty dens will be driven out of the city. There will always be liquor as a matter of course, and they should be kept as respectable as poj-sitde.. A facetious gentleman tliiuks it would he a good plan for the City Council to erect sign posts in the neighborhood of the depot reading, "Beware of Front street rum," and thus save trouble to the uninitiated.

Kiul ot the Siitvivliig Member of tlic firm ol Thompson \ Locke—Sketch of Ilia Lire. William II. Thompson, the well-known ß roprictor of the restaurant at the P. W. tV . depot, who has been confined to his bed for a long lime, suffering from enlargement of the liver, died shortly before 12 o'clock last night at the residence of John Mcaley, on Market street near Second. Mr. Thomp son was the surviving partnt r ot the firm of Thompson A: Locke, and was taken ill shortly after the death ol hi« partner Joseph K. Locke last summer. Deceased was born in Maine, town of Auburn, May 2, 1827. In 1855 he became uii engineer on the I*., W. «V B. rail road, »ml some years later w as promoted to the position of train dispatcher at the depot here, and Liter became a conductor, in which position lie was much trusted. Mr. Thompson established the depot restaurant in 1808 ami shortly afterward admitted Mr. Locke into partnership. He was taken sick in August, having had severe hemorrhages. His death was not at all unexpected. Tho funeral w ill take pince on Sunday afternoon at 3.80 o'clock. Until alter the funeral tho restaurant w ill only be opened during the stoppage of trains. Since Mr. Locke's death Thomas Mullen has been Mr. Thompson'« partner. till* A Disgraceful I'erformance.

One of the women and tho man were partic ularly disgraceful in their demeanor, at tracting fitc attention of the whole audience to their brnjteu acte. Tbe names of the offending purties could not be obtained. The man. who wo*smooth-faced and hollow cheeked, is said to be u morocco worker and a member of a social club on Market street.

This might not be il i. wer« possible '-o drive Harrington and hi» friend« out of politics, and the openly avowed object of the fusilade which the managers have been pouring at him is to do this,but In this they will not succeed. The Dover faction-is terribly down uow, brit its leaders can com-[ ntand all the strength they ever could, and the denunciation inspired by Mr. Higgins' friends will need to be backed up by shrewder plans than they have .vet cm ployed the next time the tvto wings cross sword» or the Juntu will still he on top.

"Op the other hand," said one of them to day, "I have it from Wash himself that he was op. posed to anything ol the kind, and that lie urged I)r. Collins not to appoint him on the committee." This denial is. of course,good as far as it goes, hut what Dr. Collins had to do with selecting the chairman alter lie had named th»8taie Central Committee in the capacity of presiding officer of the con ventfon Is something that i« not qui Au amusing question ju faction Mr. Hastings really belongs to. lie is at outs with many of his old friends, who repudiated his treachery to Mr. lliggins, and cannot be culled u member in good standing of that division, «hi the other hand, it is asserted that Mr. Hastings 1« not likely to find the Dover pleasant, bed fePows a* he at ilrst sur mlaed. mid tic i n. ow i* wlmt AN DIMbNSK AL'DII.NCi:.

Ail the Dover Democrats participated with much enthusiasm, nud the attendance from other places was so generous that at fully 4,000 people were present, The illumination of the town was a special feature of the affair. All three of the hotels were brilliantly lighted up, while owiug to the preponderance of Democratic sentiment among the white people of the town, the residences not decorated In honor of the occasion were the exception and not the rule. The State House, Court House und Ifrlamirean office went-conspicuous by their brilliant appeurauce,and inuny of thcdecora tlons of private residences were beautiful as well os bright, The parade started shortly alter T o'clock, headed by the .State Capital Baud, und was a really creditable uOair. It was of impos ing projioi tious, und the many and varied transparencies conveyed in wagons and car riages gave it u very attractive appearance, Some of them were extremely atuusing aud one that, attracted particular attention rep resented n huge negro of forbidding aspect, labelled "The Republican candidate for President in lMs>4.'' After ol ihe «iHZott«-. ] time through the principal «t reels of the town, und vigorously cheering th« Illuminatid dwellings, the parade as sembled on the green in frout of the State House, where a large meeting was organ ized, the speakers occupying the balcony of the House of Representatives. The large audience spread all over the green ancl many Indies graced the occasion by their presence. The band discoursed lively music. Colored lights were burned at different points, ontl altogether the set most lively and attractive ever witnessed in the State capitol. Charles II. B.

LYNCH VERSUS MAR' -•- : THE CASE ARGUED BEFORE THE GOVERNOR. LEGAL COUNSEL ON BOTH SIDES. I. V. Grubb, Ksq.. Represent* Mr. Ljr And M pear for Mr. Martin. rs. Biggins and Bradford Ap Yeiterday afternoon Governor Hall was earnestly engaged In hearing arguments by counsel on behalf of the respective claimants for the Sheriffalty commission for New Castle county. Ignatius C. Grtsbb, Esq., appeared on behalf of Purnal J. Lvncb, aud Anthony Higgins and Edward G. Bradford, Esqs,, for James Martin. Mr. Grubb's argument was a thorough i and complete presentation of the facts and 1 the law of Mr. Lynch's case. He began by saying Mr. Lynch bad the right, belonging to every citizen, to have the merits of his case, according to the law and the facts, fully and fairly presented by legal counsel. That the public feeling o'r New Castle county was profoundly stirred and that there was a deeply rooted convie tion among the Democratic voters of the county that Mr. Lynch was lawfully elected und that Mr. Martin was not, aud that till-» feeling was intensified because two years ago the Democratic Board of Canvass had given the certificate to Philip R. Clark, the Republican candidate for Sheriff, because tlic Board then Believed they were thus giv ing practical effect to the real voice of the people, although In strict law*, their legal power to do so was doubted. Mr. Grubb then claimed that the Gover nor should now, us the Democratic Board then did, give effect to the real will of the legal voters by giving Mr. Lynch if he could the commission to discover any legal ground therefor which would be sustained by the court« if contested there. Ho then proceeded substantially as follows : There are two certificates before the Governor. The Governor is hound to issue the com mis sion to the in the •andldate who is named legal certificate. But ■I which 01 *110 two in really the legul certlflcate !• the quebtlnu ttie Governor I, called upon to de ride before he can traue any eomintaalou. He then claimed that the Mr. Lynch 1» the legal one amt that Mr. Martin's is illegal and insuffleient. He further urged that II Mr. Lynch's certllicatc was illegal and insufficient then the Uov ither of the eandi duu-s but must leave them to a resort to mandamus requiring, most probably, that tbe Board ol Canvass should re-convene and perform and complete Ils duties iu regular aud legal form. After a thorough review of the proceed ings of the Board aud all the circumstanced surrounding its entire action Mr. Grnbb claimed that the facts demonstrated that the ascertainment of the result ol the elec tion as shown by tbe Martin certificate had been reconsidered by tlic Board after the Mill Creek hundred discrepancy Wat dis covered and thereupon decided iu favor of. Lynch, and that the Board, by order Of the Sheriff, was actually engaged In signing 'he new certificate for Lynch,whenthe Sheriff,by the revolutionary and advice of his counsel lors, illegally and unsuccessfully attempted : to adjourn aud break up tbe Board hv aban doning their cause and deserting their sworn duty. He further claimed that the entire Hoard, according to ids view of the evidence. ' having ascertained the result in favor of Lynch betöre said desertion by part of its members, those who remained present after Us lawlul reorganization were under the precise letter and real meaning of the statutes legally competent to complete and deliver the Lynch certificate to the fiover Mr. Grubb concluded by reading from the laws of the State tile statutory pro visions upon which he based iris proixud s of law. After hearing Mr. Grubb's argument, Which occupied about half the afternoon, Hie Governor devoted the remainder of the day to Meat rs. lligglns and Bradford iu reply. • it is understood that the Governor ii able to decide as to the legality oi the respective certificates and will therefore sub mit the question, upon u case stated by him, to the Judiciary of the State.
