MURDER AT EAsTON.-On Sunday night
last a murder was committed upon quiet and
peaceable negro, named Ned Thompson, resi-
dent of EastOn, by a returned Rebel soldier
namad Harper. 1t appears that Harper, in
company with others, was passing down the
street, and was much under the influence of Ii
duor, when they met the negro, and Harper
inquired of him where he was going. He re-
piled, to church, and passed on. lie was then
ordered to halt, but, seeing the condition OF
the party, he needed them not, when Harper
fired pistol at him, the ball taking effect in
his spine. He ran a short distance and fell
dead Harper has left for parts unknown

FIRE--The dwelling of Mr. James L. Da

is said to have originated from sparks from the
kitchen chimney. Most of the furniture or

sent at the time, engaged in his labors as one
of the county assessors. We learn that there
was no insurance on the property, and the loss
is supposed to be 81 800.

THE offense or crime, as they the Senate
are pleased to call it, if any, which we commit

responsible to the United States alone tor our
conduct, and to them belonged the mfilctlon
of the punishment which was imposed upon
us with no sparipg hand. The loss of our
property, the burning of our cities and villages,
the destruction of our farms, the sacrifice OF
thousands of our best men, will ever attest the
severity of the punishment The United
States were satisfied with it, and IN the procla-
nations of amnesty and pardon promised us
protection of person and property upon our
submission and obedience to the laws. The
conditions have been complied with, and q

TEMPERANCE Mass MEETING.-The Tenn
perance Meeting held at Middletown last Thurs
day was one of the largest gatherings of the
kind held in this State for long time-since
the decline of the temperance movement eight
or ten years ago. The assemblage was esti-
mated at from 1900 to 200O persons. Large
delegations from all the Good Templar Lodges
in the State were present, in regalia. The
delegation from Sussex county numbered about
600. A special train from Wilmington brought
about the same number The meeting was
convened in grove opposite st. Ann S
Church, about half mile from town. The
exercises consisted of speeches, music and
feastng. The meeting was presided over by
L. b. COursey, Esq, of Frederica, and was
addressed in the morning by Rev. L. L. Poul-
son, of Delaware City, and j. Coats Esq, of
| Phila. Dinner was eaten upon the ground,
| for which ample provisions had been made by
each delegation. In the afternoon addresses
were delivered by Rev. George Quigley, OF
Wilmington, S. NJ Hewlett of Phila., and Rev.
I. f. Martindale, of Seaford The speakers
showed up the evils Of intemperance in apt IL
lustratiOn and forcible arguments Hewlett
in his inimitabe style, held the audience il
close attention for about one hour and hal
in one of his able, amusing and unanswerablC
arguments against this widespread evil Rev
Mr.. PoulsOn read a temperance ode in splen
did style The st. Georges Brass Band in
terspersed the exercises with excellent music
The Sussex delegation was furnished with sup
per by the ladies of the Middletown Templar
Lodge. In the evening chop" was held a
e the National Hotel, participated in by mum
y Der of the Templars and citizens. This larg
! demonstration is a conclusive proof of the dee
f interest manifested in the subject of temper
u ance throughout the State.
