FiIetd are about as follows: John Norcross
a broken hquor-merchant of Phila., lived on a
farm near Milford, and a Mrs Ladd and a
young girl aged about Is years, Anna Norcross
claiming to be his daughter, lived with him
Mrs. Ladd claimed to be the owner of the

madam accepted him as her laddie." After

bond to keep the peace. There was not much
shooting, and the affair, instead of proving
terrible murder, as Stevens represented, turn

affected whereby Norcross takes much of the
personal effects while Stevens retains the farm.

A LIVELY SKIRMTSH.-The Democrats of

it had been a contest between the Radicals
and the White Mans Party it could hardly
have been more warmly contested The anti

and especially wishing to injure Mr. Bewley' S
Senatorial prospects and his aspirations for the
succession, We're preparing to elect delegates
OF their own selection At the appointed time
they came to the meeting in force and succeed
ed in selecting the officers. But beyond thi,
point they failed The Salisbury machinery,
always in complete working order, and always
well manipulated by the man who runs the
machine in this locality, worked to admra-
ton on this occasion. Mr.. Bcwley, tired of
the annoyance Of this faction, determined to
show his strength. Aware of their plans he.

mustered his forces, and commenced on the
offensive. The contest waged hot. Each
party waded in in earnest. Over one hun
dred and fifty votes were polled-every able
bodied Democrat being pressed into the ser,
vlce-and when the result was announced il
Was found that the Salisbury delegates had
received, on an average, at least two thirds Of
the ballots. The electioneering was about as
bitter as between rival partisans, and many of
the uninltiat.ed were hustled up to the polls
IN such hurry that they didn't vote their
sentiments. Mr.. Bewlcy proved himself
master of the situation, and fully established
his authority. He now hopes that the young
Democracy will go in their holes and calmly
submit. He does this in pity rather than In
anger. 1t is understood that Salisbury dele
gates were elected throughout the county.
