THE FRANKFORT MURDER. We find
in the Belfast Age the following particu-
lars of the recent murder in Frankfort
1t seems to have been caused by a.misera-
BILE quarrel about piece of fence on a
farm. The Age says
The court room was occupied on Mon
day, by Judge Patterson of the Police
court, in preliminary investigation of the
shocking murder at Frankfort. Elijah
Perry, who was committed for trial upon
the examination at Frankfort on the way
to the jail in this city, disclosed the whole
circumstances of the murder. fixing the
crime upon his brother Seth Perry. 1t APP
pears from his statements and other evil
dence, that Moore, the murdered man.
lived on the same farp with Seth, their
houses being off fronfthe main road and
not far apart. Moore was an old settler.
having taken up the land, originally, and
living upon it ever since. but not acquiring
legal title to it. The farm was purcllas-
ed a few years since. by Seth Perry. with
the understanding that the old man should
not be elected, but should continue to live
there during his life. and cultivate such
parts as he had selected. There was an
unfenced pasture upon the lot and carly
this spring Seth and the deceased made an
agreement to fence it. aud each was to put
in certain number of cattle. This agree
ment, il appears, Seth did not observe, but
put in larger number of cattle among
which We're several head belonging to his
brother Elijah. Moore becoming irrtatcd
at this, threw down part OF the fence and
let the cattle out. On the day of the muir
der, Seth Went down to his brother Elijah ;
two miles distant, to get him to come up
with his horse hoe and help him plant po-
tatoes, taking HE wife and sister with him,
who were to remain ill evening. The
brother went up, Elijah taking his gun
loaded with shot with him. Ahuat the
first thing they did was to put up the fence
thrown down by Moore; after this they
went to covering potatoes and worked till
nearly dark, and left of to 20 to Elijah's.
Seth having to stop TO change the harness
Of the horse, Elijah started on foot and
went-on considerable distance before he
was overtaken by Seth. Soon after Ehial,s
getting into the wagon Seth exclaimed
,,oh dear, have done u thing, hieh if
had not done. would give my farm. -
Upon Elijah asking what, he said that he
had fixed the old man. he had fired Il. him
and saw him fall; that after he (tIiiah)
left he saw the old man 20 TO the fence
and commence taking ii down, and that
he went back into the house, where be
found a ball which he put into the gun, and
going TO within gunshot, he fred and the
old man fell. He further said that he did

How EDITORS FARM.--Bro. Morrill, not
long since received a package of Garden
seeds from his NJ. c., and said, in his next
issue, that if some one would furnish the
ground he should probably raise fine
crop, or some thing to this effect. 1t seems
that his farming capacity has been put to
the test. We copy the following as tell
ing his story, in the farming line:-
A friend has done so. He furnishes the
ground all plowed, finds all the manure we
want, and hauls It to us, and all we have
to do is to put the seed in. This, the
devil assisting, we soon accomplished
This is what we call farming on sound
basis, and if we cannot make it pay, we
shall turn from agriculture in disgust.
On Monday afternoon, we pu; in a great
amount of seed, and had a fine crop of
blistcrs as the first dividend. If nobody
steals our crop, CT the grasshoppers don't
come, (and we've no doubt they'll be aw-
full thick this YEAR, and the weather. is
favorable, and September's "untimcly
FROST don't nip oursweet corn, we shall be
abundantly blessed with garden sass"
and we always get enough of the other as
We go along. Whether we raise anything
or not, the exercise has done us a heap of
good, and not much capital has yet been
wasted.
Now we will tell our story about farm
ing: We had "a package of seeds, and
owned the ground, therefore we had to
furnish all and as GU. Office furnishes. no
devil we had to do all the work. But
this is not all. We are not only in the
garden business, but have bacome '.black
republican in very decd on account of
our occupation as a farmer. We have
turned dun color, or bronze color, have
been cured. in part, of that horrid COM
plant, dyspepsia, have watched the wind,
philosophical on the weather, purchased
an interest in some navigation.(a gondola),
got plough, wheelbarrow &C., &C., and
have assisted occasionally, in making a
long line of stone drains. We like farm
ing, all but the hard work.

is said to have been the most SPLENDID
ever witnessed. jeff. Davis and party
were removed from the steamer Clyde and
ineareerated at Fortress Monroe on We'd
nesday. The parting of Davis with his
family is said to have been most affecting.
No person was allowed to be OH the wharf
while the party were landing, Mrs. Davis
and her four children, with the wife of
Clement c. Clay remained on board. 1t
is thought they will be sent South, as or
ders have been given to prevent their going
North. General Gilmore has issued o
proclamation declaring the black race in
South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, free
citizens. 1t is supposed that jeff. Davis
will be tried for treason by civil authori-

A writer in the Wateryille Mail
utters some very sensible truths in regard
to school teaching. lie does not believe
in keeping small children sitting still six
hours in day, and keep "hushed up"
without never smile or movement of
the body. Ne does not believe in having
all the order in the primary schools, nor
believe that Order is Heavens only law.
Neither does he think well of the practice
of requiring scholars at night TO report
any breaking of the rules of school. This,
in many cases, results i'll some scholars
telling untfutla.
