On Saturday last, John Conners, the sup
posed murderer of Miss +. Cunningham,
was delivered to the Sheriff of Cecil county, |
and is now confined in the Jail of that county,
to await his trial. which, we are informed,
will take place on the 5th inst.


We acknowledge the receipt of the ia
YOURS Of the "Milford Bard' We are
rather pleased than otherwise, that this


writer, who has already acquired considera-
bic celebrity as poet, has offered to place
his name on our list of correspondents, and


hope that the communications which we may
! from time to time receive, will be those of
his best composing. We have seen and
read some productions from this writer's
pen which certainly reflect credit, as poet,
upon the author; but others again do not
appear to have received that study and APP
| pication so essential, or to have enjoyed the
presence of the muse in her happiest mode;


consequently, were less admired 1t was
once our misfortune to incur the displeasure


of score of our oldest readers, and perhaps


best Judges of this beautiful mode of writ


ing, BY, as it was said, bestowing too Law
ishingly our cncomiums upon writer of


poetic taste whose pieces appeared not long


since in the Wilmingtonian. 1t was, and


still is our opinion, that many of his pieces


were we'll written. and believing them en-
titled to merit, at least for originality we did


not hesitate to bestow what, we thought,


was justly due him, our need Of praise
While this was innocently doing, we were
not aware Of the hornets nest we were
, drawing about cur ears.-Critics went tc
i work, and would -be-critics, from motives o
: jealousy or envy, caught the fire Of enthusi.


asm; and our ears at every stopping-place
=, were bcset with the most violent imprcca-
$ tons tor our want of judgment, and we Ger.
t tainly should have been overwhelmed by
!, this flood of censure, had not the poet him
4 self turned his time and pen to another Sub
e ect, more worthy his attention, and rcliev
t ed cur worthy friends from the 1--WE hav,
no doubt very unplcascnt) task Of finding


fault. Now we have peculiar reverence 70


old heads, and value the words which com
il therefrom, and a peculiar interest in tn
: taste, intellectual, OF our readers; these com
p bined, awed us into tmidity, in which stat
{ we have ever since remained 1--WE do nc
n feel rrecoveraby awed; should our feeling
= be stimulated by any particular incentive
!, we have no doubt we could, without muc
: struggling regain our former independence;
e but as we love to please, we have though


proper to be particular in future in our orig
nal selections. Now, if you, Mr.. Bard, wis
N to appear in the Wilmingtonian, you mus
Of not expect even "a "fn6," but creep
y slyly, with a modest and unassuming dt
