pouring in upon them. They gave the alarm.
Some policemen and citizens who were near

done to the property The Metropolitan Hook

but fortunately their aid was not required.

Deatn OF Col. j. Richter Jones,

Col j. RICHTER JONES, of the 59th
Regiment, p ", and for some years past,
a citizen Of Eagles Mere, Sulli AN Co., we
learn with much regret, WIS killed while
in the performance Of his military duties
on the 23d ut in the vicinity Of New
bern, North Carolina. 1t appears Col.
Jones, in command Of q Brigade made a
reconnaissance, in the direction of Kingston
and on the 22nd ult., surprised and routed
a rebel camp on Gum Swamp, capturing
Artillery, war munitions, about so horses
and mules,over two hundred priso ners and
destroyed tho rebel Notifications at that
point. The object of the expedition having
been accomplished, Col. Jones left Gum
Swamp on the afternoon of 22d to return
to his entertainments near Nowbcrn. On
the morning of the 23d, the enemy, having
rallied in strong force and pursued the re.
firing forces of Col. Jones, opened on him
from two points. They did no damage,
however, for their advance was kept in
check by our artillery, and Col. Jones
succeeded in getting all his men and pris-
oncrs inside of our lines, and at once
commenced firing upon the enemy from
his breastworks. Desiring TO take view
of the encmy's positions, Col. Jones rose
breast high above his works, when he re.
ceived ball in his breast, which killed
him instantly. Col. Jones is spoken Of as
a brave and able officer, and an earnest
defender of the flag of his country. He
was on the list for promotion for valuable
services rendered while in the service. -
I The family of Colonel Jones have gone to
Philadelphia, his former residence, where
his remains have probably arrived before
this time, and where they will bo inter-

of his in the Tribune, for more "nigger

solemn truth when we say that slavery is
is by no means dead yet, 9nd that you
the negroes must help kill it, or it is not
near its parting agonics. President Lin.
coin has done all in his power to destroy
it, others must do the rest, and you most
of ALL" President Lincoln has done all
in his porcr 10 destroy Slarery! True
indeed, lfhe had done half as much to
restore tho Union as be has TO destroy
slavery we would not now be engaged in a
war. He has trampled our glorious con-
stitution under foot; he has destroyed the
liberties of a once free and happy people;
he has squandercd millions Of the public
treasure he has delugcd the country in
blood he has made homes desolate, and
filled the land with widows and orphans
In the name of heaven what more must be
done in order to "destroy slavery ~
How much longer must the war last, how
much more blood be spilled, how many
more men offer up their lives as a sacrifice
to accomplish this internal abolition scheme

The Great Meeting last Night

Yes, says the Age, emphatically was it
Tie Great meeting great in numbers un-
prcccdented- great in its o(jcct-great in
the enthusiasm of its tens of thousands of
Freemen, determined not to be made
Slavos-great in its moderation, combined
with inGexibe mination-magnifce fcent
as a political demonstration, and invalu-
able in its heart cheering effects We
take especial pride, and not only in the
astounding numbers of those who literally
crowded the vast independence Square,
but in the character of the men who par
ticipated in the meeting. 1t was presided
over by Hon ELLIS LEWIS, late Chief
Justice Of the Supreme Court Of Pcnnsyl-
vania, eminent as one Of the first jurists
Of the country, and widely known as gen.
tleman of the most exalted character. 1t
was addressed by gentlemen who have en-
joyed the highest honors that can be be-
slowed by the paoplc OF tho city and the
State. Its officers compromised many of
Philadelphia worthicst and most ecteemed
citizens, eminent in their various walks of
life, and the workshop, the counting house
the mandatory, the bar, the bench, all
contributed to make up concourse of in
tell gent freemcn, such as has been rarely
if ever equalled, and certainly never sur
passed in this city, We expected a large
mceting-we knew something of the tenn
per of the people-and we knew the occa-
sion called trumphet tonguod for a more
than common town meeting but we were
rot prepared for such a rally en- maSse as
signalized the occasion last night To
those who stand up for the law, for right,
and for liberty, it was indeed cheering
while 10 those who ale laboring for the
subversion of the Constitution and the
suppression of free speech, it furnished a
most significant admonition,
Our reporters are preparing an account
Of the meeting, and as it promises to be
very full in its details we give way for them
here, reserving some further remarks, we
have to offer upon the meeting and its i'm
port, and upon the ludlcrous efforts of the
Jacobins for several days past to prevent
the meeting altogether, or TO break its
| force.
We congratulate the Democray of Phila'
