young man, named Francis Kelly, was shot
dead at Wilmington, Del, on Thursday, by
the discharge of gun in the hands Of Lewis
wilkins. The latter, it is alleged, after play

the trigger, when to his horror, the piece,
which he thought to be empty, went of, the
load taking effect In the rear of the right
shoulder Of Kelly, and took an upward course
toward the neck, causing an awful wound,
about two inches one way and an inch and a

Kelly fell he had also gun in his hand with
his finger on the trigger, about to point 1t at
wilkins. This Is another terrible warning to
all against the careless handling Of firearms.

We understand that Secretary Fessenden has
determined upon policy in obtaining the next
loan. We are glad to be able to announce
that he will issue proposals, directly to the
people, for seven-thlrty loan. He will not
limit It within the sum authorized by act Of
Congress at the last session, namely, two hun
drcd millions.
This is appealing at once to the patriotism
OF the people. We have no doubt that the
appeal will be generously and promptly
responded to. Let there be meetings OF
the people held in every ward of every
city, in every town, village and ham.
let, to organize the material aid in support
of the Government. Let mechanics and
nrtizans form clubs and thus contribute to the
loan. Let the press and the orators OF the ma
tion contribute their mighty influence to induce
the people to respond to this important call OF
Secretary Fessenden.
The sooner the loan is produced, the grander
will be the spectacle presented by the people
to the world. Let it be a popular loan. The
proposals will probably be issued on Monday.

WHY THE REBELS ARE CALLED " JoHSSIEs." :"

WHY THE REBELS ARE CALLED " JOHNNIE"
In 1861 the Federal soldiers called the rebels
seceshi" in 1862, "Confeds; in 1868,
" Greybacks," and In 1864 they call them
"JohnnIes." A correspondent gives us the
following information about the origin of the
last-named sou5riQ'tet: The name of Johnny
originated in a quarrel between a couple OF
pickets, which begun by the Federal telling
the rebel that they (the rebels) depended on
England TO get out Of this scrape, which the
rebel denied emphatically, saying they were
able TO scrape themselves out. One word
brought on another, until the Federal said his
opponent was no better than a Johnny Bull
anyhow; the reb swore he would shoot Yank
if he called him Johnny Bull again. The
quarrel was stopped by another picket, and
they soon cooled down, but the reb kept nut,
lcring cpd as soon be called a nlgger as
Johnny Bull"

Ro6biRg FURerdl.-Among inany of the
daring robberies perpetrated by the thieves
who visited us last week, we hear of none which
gave us more pain than the one committed by
them In the lower part Of this county. There
was a funeral of a child on Its way to the last
resting place, the graveyard, when these
"pinks," who were actually courted and feast
ed in this city by most all our rebel sympa-
thizers, took the horses out Of the hearse
and carriages while the funeral was in the
graveyard, and compelled the mourners to
walk to their homes.
Joined the ThicUeS.-Dr. Thomas II. SchaetIGr,
DR.. Robert Claggett, and John Palmer, of this
city, and William WarGeld, of Liberty district,
we are told, Joined Early's gang of horse thieves
during their raid in this county.
Used Rerfmery-Ther reception of the "pink"
week, was decidedly rich. With their handker-
chiefs well perfumed, they stood at the doors
and windows and waved them and kissed their
hands as the ragamuffins passed through the
streets. Some old maids grew quite frantic,
and were wholly unable to contain themselves.
The suppers and entertainments were gotten
up on the most exquisite scale. Some OF the
private residences of prominent secessionists
were completely overruH by these thieves and
destroyers of all that Is good, In their eager
ness to receive the congratulations of our she
rebels. Shame on you, ladies.
We understand that several Of the ladies who
were so lavish with their caresses, found them
selves minus their watches, bracelets, and ear
ringsy and we should not be at all surprised II
some of their clothing was not among the
missing articles.

ern chivalry entered Frederick on the 9th inst,
