dreadful murder took place, last evening, In
Cohocksink, in the upper part of the county. A
young man, by the name of Abraham Reed, of
quiet, inofensive habits, was the victim, and
the guilty author was Joseph Dover, butcher.
The parties were at prayer meeting, held In
the Cohocksnk Methodist Episcopal church, and
Reed was seated upon a bench Immediately be-
fore Dover. The latter, during the services,
stretched out his feet beneath the bench on which
the former was sitting, and he, it is believed
Internationally spat upon Dover's boot. Dover
Immediately commenced utterlng threats as to
what he would do when church was over. After
leaving the building, Dover made assault
upon Reed, knocking him down, and inhcting
severe injury. Not content with this, Dover
followed Reed, and at last inflicted Injury
upon the check, 1t Is supposed with his knife,
severipg the jugular vein, and causing death In a
very short time Dover fled, and is still at large
He is re resented as being OF the rowdy class
while the deceased was a gentle and estimabls
young man, beloved by all VINO knew him. He
was in the employ of stove manufacturer.
The Washington Grays, Captain McAdam,
performed the concluding portion OF their duty
as the guard of honor TO tue remains of Mr..
Adams this morning, by escortlng the hearse
containing TN EN- to the depot OF the Trenton rai-
road, in kenslngton, accompanied by fine band
of music.

THE HIGHT OF NATURE.

The celebrated Mr.. Hume wrote an es.
say on the 'sutiiciency of the light Of ma
ture and the no less celebrated DIR. Rob-
crtson wrote on the necessity OF revela-
ton and the lnsu!Iiclency Of the hight Of
nature. Hume came one evening 10 Wis
it Robertson, and the evening was spent
on this subject. The friends of both
were present, and it IS said that Robert
son reasoned with unaccuslomed clear
ness and power. Whether Hume was
convinced by his reasoning or not, we
cannot tell, but at any rate he dad not
acknowledge his conviction. Hume was
very much of a gentleman, and as he
rose to depart, bowed politely to those in
the room, while as he retired through
the door Robertson took the IigH to show
him the way, Hume was still facing the
door 20 Sir" said he, " ] find the light
of nature always sufficient" and cyutIn-
ued, pray don't trouble yourself sir,
and so bowed on. The street door O.
pened, and presently as he bowed along
the entry, he stumbled over something
concealed, and pitched down stairs into
the street. Robertson ran after him with
4 light, and as he held it over HIM, wills
pered softly and very cunning!y. "you
had better hare little IicH from ADORE,
friend Hume" And raising him up, be
babe him good night and returned to his
friends.
