Monday Mobninq, June 29, 1874.
UcrREHENTATiVEH.—Amoug the gentlemen
named in Brau«tywine Hundred, iu connection
with the Republican nomination for Represen
tatives to the Legislature, are Capl. Hugh
Sterling, Esau S. Perkins, Win. Silver, Samuel
H. Dixon, Isaac S. Elliott, Lewis Talley, ami
Eugene DuPont.
II it
Resigned —Postmaster Cresawell has re
signed and ilie President has tendered the |hj.
sillon to Uou. Eugene Hale; of Maine, We
rather pleased than otherwise by the change.
Mr. Cressweil may have done
while iu office, but the fact that the reveuues
were several millions less than Che expendi
tures indicated unskillful management. The
department 'lionid be self-sustaining, and aoy
who cannot make it so, should not hold
the office In* has vacated. Thousands of dollars
might be made, aud other thousands might lie
saved, witli ordinary business qualifications,
and, therefore,
lie the gainer by the change.
Ihk Treasury Deficit.—A t the meeting
of the City Council last Thursday evening, Jus.
P- Hayes, Esq., introduce«! a series ol resolu
tions in regard to the defalcation of the late city
treasurer, and providing for the appointment of
a special committee with authority to employ a
clerk at a cost not exceeding $200, in order flint
a full examination of the same maybe uiatl«*,
and a full report laid before the citizens. An
article iu one. oft he papers aud the anxiety of
the citizens for a full report of the. condition of
the finances of the city, were made the pretext
for this actiou. It is more tliau probable how
ever that a desire for notoriety au«l to influence
the comiug election, were the impelling
fives. The idea that Mr. it. is something of a
demagogue impairs ins influence and lessens
Ins popularity in aud out ot the council, and it
is to be regretted that lie cannot divest himself
of such suspicion.

Tim Water Supply.—T he (?'c v.elle appears
to think that muddy water water is good enough
for our citizens to drink—that water taken from
t lie Brandywine should be used the next, hour,
and that so long as the basins can lie kept lull
there is no necessity fora reservoir of greater
capacity. This may do very well iu certain
seasons of the year, but when heavy storms oc
cur, the water is made extremely muddy aud
that our citizens should be forced to us-* it in

t liât condition is reason fu
We a
great complaint.—
much opposed as llie editor of the
(lazette to an increase of the city tax, but the
citizens shouil have better water and iu greater
abundance, and arrangements to supply it must
tie made iu a very short period of the time, and
the sooner it is done the better. Men of all
parties will agree on this point, and we i
prized that the Gazette cannot rise above party
prejudice and deiuagogucisui, even if a few
votes should lie lost by its silence in regard to
tin* measure.

haul the United States post-oliice cars over liis

other freight, charging full fare fur every -
ploye of the Post-office Department who goes
over the road. Tbe Postmaster-General, it is
reported, will then begin a salt in tbe United
States courts to compel the road to take llie
(Kifltal cars. The company bolds that tbe United
States cannot require the road to carry the
mails in a given way, so loug as tbe company is
not consulted as to tho price to be paid. Tho
management o/the road have offered to sub
mit the question of compensation to a jury or
lo arbitrators, butas the Postmaster General,
it is said, refuses to do this, the company will
take the course indicated in order to make a
test case. It is hoped the litigation will not in

crop prospects for the Peninsula, there is noth

while corn and oats are alike promising—as al
so nearly all varieties of fruit and vegetables.—
The peach crop is practically a failure, anfl the
strawberry crop though abundant, lias been leas
remunerative than could have been desired ;
