MATTERS ABOUT TOWN.

DEATH OF A TEACHER. Mr. Manthano
Pickering, Principal of the Park street Gram
mar School for boys, died at his residence in
this city Sunday morning, after an Illness from
lung fever, which confined him TO his house
but little more than one week.
Fourteen years ago, at the invitation of our
School Committee, Mr.. Pickering came to this
city from Great Falls, n. H., to take charge
Of a Grammar School, and, with the exception
of an interruption caused by illness last year,
he has sedulously devoted himself TO his vo-
cation. He was a strict diseiplinarian, but
the thousands in our city who have come out
from his instruction bear testimony to his
fidelity and kindness. He has been the means
of doing vast amount Of good 10 the lads
who have come under his charge, aud his SER
vices have been held in high estimation, not
only by The members of the School Commit
mittee, but also by our citizens generally.
OF rather reserved manner, he was not dis
posed to push himself into public favor; yet
TO his friends and acquaintance he was social
and genial, aud in the broadest sense Of the
term he was Christian. Saturday morning,
after recovering from state OF unconscious
ness, he was sensible that his hours were num-
bered and were but few. Calling his family
and friends around him, he addressed them in
words of endearment, which-werc very affect
ing. His youngest child, boy little more
than year old, at his request was baptized at
his bedside, by his pastor, Rev. George l..
Walker of the State street Church, in their
presence. 1t was a scene that will never be
forgotten by those present. Taking an aflec-
Tomato leave of them he was prepared TO go
down the dark valley with the nunc dimittis
on his tongue. He calmly looked death in
the face. 1t had no terrors for him. He re-
posed his trust and confidence in that Re-
deemer whose disciple he had SO long been.
From this time he quietly sank away until
o'clock Sunday morning, when his wearied
spirit took its fight.
The death OF Mr.. Pickering is loss that
our whole community will feel. His place
will not easily be filled. The good he has
done will live after him.
He leaves a wife and four children, who
will have the sympathy of this community in
their sorrowiul bereavement.

destroy our stores and break the railroad by
burning the bridges, dc. l am happy to in
form you that the great raid undertaken by
Gen. Early, in retaliation for our late move
movements in this, department, has thus far
resulted in complete failure or fizzle. An
empty wagon train of Col. Thorburn's, re
turning from Petersburg. was captured by n
portion of the epemy's force. With this en-
cepton they have not thus far been able to
inflict upon us any injury. Many deserters
are coming in anol our cavalry are picking up
many stragglers- The railroad is safe and
trains are running regularly. The weather is
cold and the show is several inches deep.

OPinioH of the Judge 1drocafe ia the Ches-
aPeakc Case.

HALIFAX, n. s., Jan. o.
Admiralty Court, Hon. Judge Stewart, G.
T., presiding, Hon. J. w. Johnston Advocate
General for the Crown, w. ii. Morse for the
owners, j. w. Richie for the Confederates
In opening the case Judge Stewart stated
that the cause entertained was upon the ground
that the seizure of the vessel was upon pirat-
ical act. In his opinion the steamer ought to
be given up TO the owners. Mr. Richie asked
the Judge TO contemplate the probability of an
application from the Conederates. His Honor
declared that he would not entertain anything
of the kind. Mr.. Richie then gave in his in
depreciation OF the law upon the validity of the
seizure, contending that any citizen of the
Confedracy, with or without commission
has the absolute right to seize any vessel be-
longing to the Federals, and il would be law
ful prize. The Advocate General said that he
felt some difficulty in bringing this case into
this Court, as 1t was pretence of her being
lawful prize, but prima facia, the capture was
piracy in his opinion, and the vessel should be
delivered up TO the owners. The Court then
adjourned to the 18th inst.
