Tbe vacancy in the chair of Agriculture in the faculty of Delaware College has beeu title«! by the appointment of Profeaaor Wealey Webb of Unity, Maiue, who i» highly recommended a» a practical aud en thusiastic agriculturalist. Though they weut a Ion# distance from home, the Trustees are to be congratulated upon their wisdom in selecting lor this important portion a gentleman who is a veritable tiller of tbe »oil ami not a farmer from mere theory and study. Intelligent hus bandry 1 « a necessary accomplishment to a person in this position, but as far a practi cal i es u Its art* coo ce mod, six mouths hard and careful labor upon an ordinary farm are more valuable than years of study or the unwearied perusal of the best books on larm subject* ever issued from the press. There is no doubt that the prevailing idea in the establishment of Delaware College was to provide an institution for the dis semination of knowledge generally and agricultural information in particular, but thus far it has failed to attain the true standard of an agricultural college, or to impart to the department * f agriculture the prominence it was Justly en titled to. If the new Professor of Agricul ture, however, justifies the expectations ex cited by his excellent record, we may ex pect to see Delaware College take front rank as au institution for imparting a thorough knowledge of this branch of in dust ry so important to the people of Dein of S The in bis in 4 it. ' to redress for real or fancied grievances more frequently proves a miserable failure than a success, attil in no iustance was this more forcibly illustrated than in the recent tragedy at Union tow u, Pu., where Captain Nutt sought revenge upon his daughter's seducer, but was killed iustead. In cont enting u{kiu this deplorable affair the Philadcphiu iVm arrive* at the reason able com* 1 union that "the pistol *• fails to mete out justice. Like the dishon " est judge, it should be impeached; like the " court where the seeker for justice is mulcted " of films, men should no longer appeal to it; " like the imperfect code under which the "guilty escape, it should l#e abolished. "This terrible tragedy ought to damn the 44 pistol forever for all uses such 41 it was intended to be put to iu Union town. 44 Men thought the pistol had a luiosiou and " It has failed to perform it. As a dispenser " of justice It has failed. It has »pread " abroad a daughter's sad story instead of 44 concealing It. It has punished nobody ex " eept ttie widow and the fatherless. It has 44 miserably failed and the consequence» of 44 the failure are terrible." Another instance of the folly of young men carrying revolvers while visiting their sweethearts occurred in a New York town i vretenUy. The youtiL' isallaut, George W. *, . , ' . . . . . • . Gat*» by name, . alle .1 up.... bl» lady »»<1 ! began asslatlug lier tu urramrim; 'ht- hou»e where they were to reside after their mar- | riajff, which aa. to take place on New \ TcarV day. Iu putting a hanging In.np in j he »ted upon a »tcp.ladder. whUc hla betrothed -tout beide him, hcr love laden eyes softly following his graceful movements. Suddenly the death-dealing Oisiol whi-li should have .. pistol, «hi h should hav. b.ei left in Ins bureau drawer, slipped ftoin hts coat pocket to Hie floor and ex plodtnl, the hall striking the youug lady in the neck and inflicting a wound from which .he died In a few minutes. No doubt George Aorld to rail •k to life, I nit if he had only done what all men, young and old, should do, and re- j .. . . V , (rained from carry,ng dangerous weapim. at | ail, there is every reason to believe that bis marriage with the woman of his choice j would have been joyfully celebrated on New ! pogitlo would «lo anything in the hi« intended bride \ Year's day. It is rumored that Kerdell, one of tbe Star Houle conspira tore, is going to turn atate's evidence, and bin fellow rascals arc trembling with f ar of the consequences. Evidently Rcrdell fears that President Arthur's repentance ii= cineere and 1 hat the Star Route thieve« need expect no help from the White House.

A long list of casual tic« is reported from the use of fire-arms. Several fir .'«aud hoodlum assaults, shooting and cut ting affrays were more numerous than for a long time. The municipal authorities made no effort to euppreM these disorders, ex cept iu a few instances, where «tr usts for crime were made. In luuta, Georgiu, the Christina.'- casualties were : One negro murdered by another— shot through the heart without provoca brained by another, and hopes of recovery ; two sons carved their father—possibly fatally: a negro woman »tabbed a negro man to the heart : a police man shot a negro in the leg for attempting K, take » clubfrom him : anotherpolicomau was «hot through the coat and j.anta.ooti« I.v «orne unknown pereon : and there were bleeding heads and bruised noses too mimer ..us to mention, there being 125 ease« at the station-houses in ten hours.

In such a way it to make the audience believe that the wearer has dropsy of the brain. You can never get a stage bald-head near enough like nature to fool the average fly A fly knows In two moments whether genuine or only a base imitation, bald-head ol the theatre fills him wide, •tage WhSik ."X house it is the and the with nausea and disgust. Nature, at all times hard to imitate, preserve» her bald head aa she does her sunny skies and deep blue seas far beyond the reach of the weak infallible human imitator. Baldness is like lame, it cannot be pur chased. It must lie acquired Some may be born bald, Dome may acquire t»ald ness, and others may have haMness thrust u|>on them, but they generally acquire it. The stage beard is also rather dixiy as a rule. It looks a* much like a beard that grew there as a cow's tail would if tied to the bronze dog on the front porch. When you tie a heavy black t>eard on a youug actor whose whole soul would !>e churned up if he smoked a full-fledged cigar, he looks about as savage as a bowl of mush and milk struck with a club. ft Irai n a And ObMlty. got to Fat i* by »mue considered an indication of laziness.
