We copy the following from the Peninsula
(Milford) News.
Our town has this week been shocked with
the occurrence of one of those scenes which
ara disgrace to humanity, and cali for con
domination not only upon the direct perpe
traitors. but upon those who countenanoe,
support, and allow their property to be used
as houses of drunkenness and infsmy. The

John B7dnett,' residing shout nine milea
from Milford, in the vicinity Of Benefits

during the day became somewhat intoxicated.
In the evening he aud some OF his friends
visited houaa OF rather bad reputo tenanted
by Thomas lioskins. While there and when
leaving before ten o'clock they all appeared
to be Ia friendly mood. Tue party again
returned to the house after II o'clock and
knocked for admittance; they wero told to
90 away, and some threats Of shooting were
made II they did no: leave. Something was
thrown against the door by the outside par
ty, when they ran away. Bennett. II seems,
went back again and knocked for admittauce,
when aoskins opened the door aud deliber.
ately fred at him with a double-barrelled
gun, the entire load taking effect in the stom-
ach. Some persons hearing the report went
to the place and found Bennett lying in the
street in maneled and suffering condi-
tion. They mcdiately called Dr. Lohand
who had him removed TO the Milford Hotel
WHARF he died In less than an hour after thu
occurrence. Hoskins was srft sted by Con
stable Gorby and taken before Esquire Hazel
and on his own confession OF having shot tn,
man, was CONN tilted to jail al Dover. Mr.
Bennett was abont forty-four years Of age
and leaves a wife and several children. HI
was peaceable, inonensive man, though ad
dicted to drinking. Hoskius' house has Ions
been looked upon as a disgrace and nuts
ance, and as such should have been deal
with long since. Deputy Coroner orem helt
an inquest over the remains of the deceased
on Tuesday morning.
Mr. James II. Bell, Of this town, who VIZ
stated in our last issue had been captured
by the Rebels, has since been heard from
and It appears hs ia prisoner at Richmond
The family OF Mr.. d. have received iDforma

But the most interesting and bloody affair
Is yet to be told. Early in the morning the

light to see such body OF men going over

We were formed into line aud ordered for

corn fields we went, Just as We got into an
open field, we received tremendous volley
from behind a sionewall where the Rebels
were posted in strong numbers We fell
upon our faces and poured it into them, and
they returned flre with great effect. We then
made charge, but the Rsbsl reserve came
up, and routed us. During the engagement

I can only account for II by thinking that the
Great Rules OF the universe guided the halls,
and unto him should give all the praise. A
party Of us were taken up lanes by the Ma
jor, and done good service. A number Of the
commissioned officers were with us, and they
with the Major, took the guns ofthe woun-
ded and dead, and by the side OF the men they
fought nobly. Whilst zealonsly at work, a
ball hit Capt. Richards in the breast, and be
died in few moments. Many noble acts
could be narrated of both officers and men.
Int time will not admit. Lt-Col. Hopkinson
was slightly wounded: Captains Watson,
