Death Of Mishty Mean Man

The lass Moses. sheppard. of BALTIMORE,
il thus spoken o. BY correspondent oil the
n. \. Evening Post:
"The circumstances re.
veaied BY the death OF this extraordinary
man. are as extraordinary az any OF the 10.
cidenis OF his lite. His morbid parsimony
not only adhered TO him up 70 his lateat
breath, but Il perpetua,ed by his will. Hc
was worth over half million Of dollars, the
bulk Of which he dedicated to the estahlsh-
meat Of an insane asylum, and lett not
single cent 10 the poor old woman who
+ pr house for him on starvation board ard
wages Tor many years. He lett but mis-
cradle pittance to his man servant, and on-
~ 5000 to his nephews. who were his near
est relatives. and poor. Only two or th &c
weeks before his death, he called his old
housekeeper TO his bedside TO say that as
milk mad risen 10 eight cents quart, they
must take but pint for the future, He lrft
number Of poor relatives. whom small
bequeat would have made comfortable. He
gave away considerable money, however,
yet never under the impulse OF personal
| ceiling, but as he econonlised, according 10
| system He has al times bes owed small
>unls towards the colonization csuse," hich,
ior many years, has been the constant
theme vi his conversation. He seems. how
ever, to HAYS very recently lost confidence
IN the utility of that movement, Tor under
.tand, that he has left the society nothing
Ut Consequence. Mr. Latrobe, the Pres
ldent OF the society, was one Of his most
familiar friends.
| He never INDUCED himself with more
than two meals day, and one Of those con-
sisted usually of bread and milk. His let
ters OF which have several, were written
Iupon the cheapest aud coarsest kind OF pa.
per. The sheet was always cut OF close un.
der the signature, 80 that none VI II should
be wasted. do not remember 10 have ever
received a whole sheet from him Ia the

bslmy air Of Spring times breathing morn.
But what made il OF more special interest
to the deniSens Of PRINCETON. was the no.
tlee which the Sons Of Temperance gave
out few days previous, saat they la'snded
10 have "joliy time" in the way Of
grand display, speeches, Sc, TO which the
public was politely invited to attend. The
programme was that they we're to meet al
their Ledge aud then march through the
principal streets 10 the Presbyterian church
where they were to have several speeches,
after which they were to proceed TO David
Armstrong; new Hall, there to psstake OF
dinner served up by cur worthy esterer
Mr.. Charles Kesse.
| The seryices at the church were opened
BY the singing Of one Of thsir beautiful
hymns peculiar to the Order, aud prayer BY
William Blaekmsn, one Of the members
which was beautiful 10 words, chaste in Ian
guage, and to the point. After which there
was a speech from the Rev. Mr.. Blake
pastor Of the NJ. E. Church OF this place
It would be frultless In me to attempt Z
do justice to the orator; suffice it to say az

aud iuds ing from the applause with which
his speech WAS received by the Division, ht
spoke the ssn,ime nts which met their aP
probation. There was also a speech b,
Me-. Coonrsd, . local minister. He is !
man Of strong mind, unpretending, bu
sound in sentiment, aud no doub, will d.
good execution in the temperance ranks.
After the services At the church we're
over. the Sons proceeded in good order ans
IN double quick time TO where the dinner
was waiting them, TO which with gosdIy
number Of ladies' oil Princeton, they sa
down and without many preliminaries am
judging from the motions they began X
make, they were determined to DO it ample
justice. So ended the day to the satisfac
