The following letter explains itself; Hotel i>e Grand Miroir, Brussels, Belgium, Oct. 0, 1883 —Mg Dear Mr . KhuonU :—My Americau mail reached me at Cologne, Germany, just as I was about de parting for Belgium. It contained tho Wil mingtoa papers, giving glowing accounts of tiie German Volks fest recently held in your city, and over which you had the honor to so efficiently preside. Now, to my point, the provoca tion of hurriedly addressing you a lew lines. I want to con gratulate you and the Germans of Wilming ton on such a fest. I have been traveling much for four months past in Europe— from the west to the cast, Horn the sunny routh to the bold and rugged North—and have devoted nearly six weeks to Germany. In ull this experience, I want to 6ay,I fouud no mpre Interesting spots of enjoyment than I did in GermaLy. • Iu my business career in Wilmington I had always a warm degree of friendship for iho German race, aud now that I have had an opportunity to dwell amongst them a little while aud encounter their ways, customs, their Ideas and "" bounded genialty, and their enthusiastic ad miration for the Americans, I can assure you there have been added many links to the chain that had always made me attached to them. J)o not think I take no interest In tho affairs of Wilmington because I am absent from it. Nothing gave me more pleasure in news from home than this last demonstra tion in Wilmington. Again I congratulate you on its success to whom thl«* honor Is mainly due; to Its Inception, inspiration aud happy consummation. With tbe highest consideration, I am, sincerely, Edward MoInall. at to Is A Voice From "Hamburg." To the Editor of the Gazette: I am always glad to get (he old reliable and faith ful Gazette, which has always the latest and most important news. My neighbors who read the Republican papers are never satisfied without they call upon me to spend evening, and hear what tbe old faithful Gazette has to say about tilings in general. We have neen much amused lately at the jabber and clatter of Wilmington editors discussl g the claims of certain gentlemeu for future appointments by our worthy Gov ernor. The bosh and trash which fills these papers from day to day Is disgust intelligent mind, when It Is known that these editors, who represent a defunct party, bave no influence with the Governor or tho friends of the candidates. It is well-known that Demo crats do not seek the advice ot these de feated and and on account of a failure to furnish news for their readers they imagine that the trash which fills about one-quarter of their sheets from day to day is fresh reading for persons living away from your city. Our people un derstand these pretenders of morality, aud know what estimate of value for truthful ness to p'ace upon such cranky editorials. having a delightful fall, wltich en ables ua to gather our crops Iu good order. Don't forget to forward the Gazette. Wo would be lost these p easant evenings with out it. Faithful.

ASKING FOE A WHOLE SQUARE Meeting of City Council nt Front and C'ljty tou ami Fourteenth sud Scott Street«, t-> Consider Proposed Changes of Ura<l*p. City Council inet ou the premises, Satur day afternoon,to consider the grade of Clay ton street, from Front to Chestnut, which some property owners of the neighborhood want chaugcd. About a year ago the grade here was es tablished by ordinance of City Council, re quiring a till of about four feet at Chestnut street aud about 15 "inches at Front street. Iu accordance with this grade Thomas Sam worth started six houses at the southeast corner of Front and Clayton streets, which are now well under way.' Recently George W. Bush and others, owning property aloug the street, petitioned Council to amend the grade established a year ago by allowing the street to rcraaiu in its at Chestnut s reet, aud to Inches water from Clayton street down Chestnut instead of down Front street, as at present. As this depression would come In hot t of two of Mr. Samworth's houses and interfere with them materially, he naturally objects. Council heard the statements of the inter ested parties, but adjourned without taking any action. The general feeling of the mem bers, however, seems to be in favor of mak ing no change in the grade aa established a year ago. esent condition press it 15 to 18 Front street, so as to throw tbe WHAT TIIE B. & O. PEOPLE WANT. Council next proceeded to Fourteenth and Scott st'-eets, to consider some changes of giade askad by tbe Baltimore & Ohio railroad people. The crossing grades were established some time ago by City Council but now the following changes arc desired. A raise of \\i feet where the ro.id strikes the city line, at Twelfth street extended. At Thirteenth street, a raise of feet instead of a depression. At Lincoln street, a raise of feet, in stead of a depression of 1110 feet. The most important request, however, was for tho vacation of Fourteenth street, from Scott to Lincoln, and on this point Col. Douglass, Chier Engineer of the B, & O. R. R., addressed the Council briefly. He said that to conform to the grade originally established would bring the tracks about three feet below the crowu of the sewer on Fourteenth street, and prevent the satisfactory Jointure of grades at Fourteenth and Scott streets. To vacate Fourteenth street would eu&ble the crossing to be made without trouble. A small stream of water runs along Fourteenth 6treet, and a sewer will have to bo constructed before the street Several property-owners in the vicinity In terposed objections to the variation of the street . About the only property that would bo materially damaged is a two-story frame structure, close to the raiiroad and it was stated that tbe company had already made satisfactory arrangements with tho owner. Council viewed tho points at which cn&ng of grade were asked, and without takti any action adjourned. be used. A FOOI.LSU FOREMAN. fils Testy Temper Loses Him » Good Po sition. The foreman of Hartmann & Fehrenbach's brewery, Theodore Becker, appears to be a man bomewhat diflicut to get along wilh, aud as a consequence he has bad several lit tle brushes with Mr. Hartman, who perron ally superintends tho work at the biewery. Upon any occasion of dispute with Mr. Hartman Becker would rush into tho city office of the firm and bore Mr. Fehrenbach with bis grievance. This conduct on his part got to be a nuisance, and so when the hundreth disagreement, occurred Saturday at the brewery and Becker started on his usual pilgrimage to tbe city, Mr. Hartman concluded that patience hal about ceased to be a virtue, and so he promptly tele phoned to Mr. Fehrenbach to pay Becker and discharge him. There was due Becker $900, as wages which he had left for safe keeping iu the hand6 ol his employers, and when he was presented with a check ior this amount aud told that louger desired he was off when he a his services were surprised as well disappointed, as he well might be, considering that he was receiving tbe haudsouie salary ot $1,800 per annum, peremptory discharge angered him very h. and he returned to the brewery and muc persuaded tho other brewers to quit work. This sudden strike caused some inconven ience, but nothing of a serious nature, as a gotten together under the foremansblp of Benjamin Kopf, and every thing is again serene at the br- wery. Becker, the retiring foreman, and a num ber of Haitman A Fehrenbach'e workman, have gone to thi farm of George Stalb, on the Philadelphia pike, about three miles from thi6 city,where it is said a new brewery Is to be established, of which Mr. Becker will be foreman. Stock has already been subscribed towards the enterprise, and it Is said tho work of constructing the necessary buildings will be commenced soon. force w RIOTOUS LABORERS. They Threaten to set Fire to Their Em ployer's Office. Saturday aft- rnoon Patrick Malloy, con tractor lor grading ,the section of the B. A O. railroad that nears Wilmingtoi at Front, and Webb streets, completed his portion of tiie contract and called his Italian laborers together for a final settlement. It happens that Mr. Malloy recently received another contract for grading on the section below Havre de Grace, and desiring to keep his laborers with him he decided that the best plan would be to hold hack a portion of tlicir day. Accordingly he kept about two dol lars from each man In Ids employ. Tbe Italian laborers, however,did not take kindly to Mr. Malloy's scheme. They Im agined that he was attempting to fleece them out of their money, and immediately indignation meeting to decide upon measure of fellef. Violent speeches where made by several of their number, and as a fitting modo of reveuge they determined to set fire to tbe office at Front and Webb streets, used by the contractor. Fortunately the excited actions and flrey speeches of the Italians had alarmed Con tractor M&lloy, and he sent in to the police station for assistance. Sergeant Hatton un d a squad of officers at once responded aud arrived just in time to prevent the angry laborers from carrying their plan into execu tion. It being impossible to discover the ring leaders no arrests were made, and after satisfactory explanations from the contrac tors, the anger of the mistaken laborers subsided and they ters. hi Id returned to their quar Paying a Fraternal Visit, A delegation oi Excelsior Lodge, K. of P. of this city, left Saturday evening in hacks ior Booth's Corner, about six miles from this city, to pay a visit to a sister lodge at that place.

Discover/ Which May solve the Mysterious DiaHjipnurHiice of Cndit Helden. Dayton, Oct. 21— Th« friends and rola of Cadet Beiden, of this city,who mys teriously disappeared while at San Fian cisco last May, had their worst feitra con firmed recently by soiuo news received from a detective agency concerning the skeleton ot a that a sportsman while hunting shot a quail, which tell in a thicket of bushes. Seeking hie game he discovered a figure, us he thought, reaching to pick it up. To his horror, on close inspection, he founu it to he a skeleton partly clothed, ai.d with some remains of decomposed flesh upou its bones. It at once occurred to him that might be the lost Beiden. A rope, from the neck to the branch oi a tree Indicated sui cide or lyuchlDg for a real or alleged crime. No letters or Jewelry were to be fouud. Minute descriptions were sent to Beiden's friends, and one of them went to examine the remains, but them as Bel.ten's. If this ßkelcton is not that of Beiden it de velops a clue to another mystery, fag found in that of a youug man cumstauces and from the b ast. His Derby hat was made In Paris and sold by a local tradesman at New Xlavcn, Conn.

Resolutions Adopted Making a Strong lVea• ntalton of Ireland's Wrongs and Suggest lug Measures of Kelief. President Stuart presided at the conven tion of representatives of Irish aud Irish Americau societies of Delaware held In the parlors of the Shields Library Association yesterday afternoon. A v-ry full represen tation of delegates w^re foun d to be present at roll call, lully 75 {lersous being iu the rooms. The Committee on Resolutions, appointed at the last meeting and composed of Daniel W. Mulllu, Chairman; Murtiu J. Meatev Secietary; James A. Bourke, Joseph H. Gllkoy, Robert W. Chambers, Martin Kiogb. M. A. O'Connor and Thnraaa F. O'Dounell, made the following report: Resolved. Thnt we. the représentatives of the Irish and Irlsh-Amencan societies of Delaware, In convention assembled, do heartily indorse tbe action of the Philadelphia convention of April 27. 1883,aa expressed in its platform and resolutions. Resolved. That the English Government In Ireland, origin ting in usurpation, perpetuated by force, having failed to discharge any of the duties of government, never having acquired the cousont ol the governed, has no moral right to exist in Ireland; and that it is tho duty or tho Irish raco throught tho world to sustain the Irish people In the employment of all legltl mate means to substitute National self govern ment. Rfjtotved, Thnt tho people of Ireland are by tho laws of God and nature entitled to live by their labor in their nat ve land, whose fUrtilo soil is abundantly anie to nourish them, and we pledge our unqualltiod support, tn ral and ma terial, to our countrymen in Ireland in their el! rts to re**ov r National self-government. Resolved, That In order the more effectually to promote this object by the consolidation of all our ro8ourccä an l the creation ot one respon sible and authoritative body to speak for greater Ireland in America, that all the socl Lies r pre sented la this convention and all that may hereafter be admitted be organliod Into branotus of the Irish National League of America for tho purpose o> supporting the Irish National League ot Ireland, ot which Charles Parnell is president. During the debate that followed a motion to adopt John Carr said the object was to raise money to enable poor men to serve In Parliament and to secure such legislation as will give every Irlshmau a vote in his native land, the same as Irish-Americans have in this country; and in this case money must be raised to support these members of Par liament and suggested that an appeal be made to the business men of this State. Dur iughis remarks he complimented thepressjof this city and expressed his appreciation of tbe services rendcied the cause by the news papers and hoped that they would be author ized to receive subscriptions forthat purpose and publish the names of the contributors. Alter some further discussion tbe résolutions were unanimously adopted aud the com mittee discharged. The rules of the Irish National League of America were then read by the secretary by request. Owen Trayuor called for tho second reading of the third and flf h rules In which members arc pledged to support Irish manufacturers, imports, education, etc., and to refuse to purchase g ods of English manuructme. The speaker favored the rules and urged their observances with considerable vehemence. An informal dis cussion followed as to whether the conven tion should adjourn without further action. Many of tbe delegates argued fiat nothing deli ite had been accomplished, while others urged that the convention having adopted resolutions setting forth the objects of the association and all necessary information having been furnished there was nothing left lor the re spective delegations to report to their so cieties for further instructions. It was stated that most of the societies had elected delegates solely lor the purpose ef obtain ing information aud but two of the societies represented had authorized their delegates to pledge them to unything. Colonel Uorm ley suggested that the proper thing to do was to report the proceedings to the soci eties and ■ if necessary to appoint rallying committees to assist tbe delegates In pre senting the matter strongly before their societies. The president ruled that a motion to ex onerate all societies from aoy responsibility for the action of the convention w. der, on the ground that the societies, with two exceptions, had not sent delegates with any power to act, and Deuce th« y could not be bound. Edward F. Kane spoke in favor of the delegations going back to encourago aud advocate tbe formation of branches. State Executive James A. Bourke called forte give information, but as fie had Thursday evening, very clearly set forth the objects cf the convention, he did not deem it profitable to consume valu able time in a repetition. Peter J. lord an nounced that St. Paul's Catholic Society could not form a branch, as no political question could be introduced there. After further discussion as to the advisa bility of attempting to do anything more,the secretary was requested to turuish the chair men of the delegations with a copy of the resolutions adopted, and the chairman in turn were requested to present them to their respective socieiics for approval or reject tion. The convention then adjourned subject to the call of the chair. The session was a very harmonious one, and will, it is believed, re sult in much benefit to the cause of Ireland. out of was already, Fight Fishermen Probably Drowned.
