The Washington Co. Good Templar,' Union

The Washington TO. bOOd lemplars' Union
Met in this village last Wednesday. The at
tendance was quite gratifying, some nine Lodges
being represented. Washington Lodge, Of this
place, entertained as is guests those from other
towns, providing two collations for one hundred
persons, in Village Hall. The meetings held dur
ing the day were private, but we understand
that those present at the afternoon session enjoyed
the benefit Of DR., Charles Jewetts counsel and
encouragement--no small addition to the interest
and value Of any temperance gathering
The public meeting in the evening was q grand
success in point of numbers, the hall being
packed, and undagging attention was given to
DR.. Jewetts lecture to its very close, though
many Of the audience had a dozen or more miles
to ride after starting for their homes, The lee.
tnre was upon Alcohol and Crime, and while
it was not so novel in its line Of thought as some
others which he has delivered here, yet it added
to the weight Of arguments already given for to-
tai abstinence from drinking and selling liquor.
Those who say, " never sell to man when be
is drunk, ought to have heard the DR., as he
showed that it was more injurious TO society to
supply a man with whiskey enough to bring him
to a state of moral obtuseness and bewilderment-
the state in which quarrels arise and crimes are
commi,ted-than, when he is in that condition,
to sell him enough more to narcotize and stupely
him, and thus render him harmless.
The singing by the audience generally, and the
piece so nicely rendered by little Miss llollistei
of Plainfeld, added much to the pleasure Of til,
occasion

CONFESSION.
LOUISVILLE, Ky, Nov. IA negro named
Squire has confessed that he and two other ne
groes named Taylor and Davis, were the muir
derers OF the Park family at Henryvile, Ind, on
Saturday night last. They expected to secure
$500 by the crime. Squire says he watched out
side, and Davis held light while Taylor did
the killing. Squire is the only one thus far in
custody. Parties have gone to effect the arrest
OF the other TWO.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT
Later Last night the citizens of Henryville,
Ind, near where the brutal murder of the Park
family occurred Saturday night, put rope
around the neck of George johnson, the negro
implicated IN the murder, and, telling him they
had traced II to him, demanded to know his ac-
compllCeS. johnson made IA full confession
stating that two negroes named Davis and Tay-
lor, with himself, planned the murder, believing
Parks had $500 or $500 of the church money in
the house. johnson watched the outside, Davis
held the light and Taylor committed the bloody
deed. The partners refused TO divide the plum
der fairly with him; they only cot $40 The
whereabouts of the accomplices became known,
and party of citizens immediate went to effect
an arrest. The police took the three prisoners

to the fact that the act imposed upon the Provi-
dence and Worcester railroad the duty Of eX-
tending its track beyond its present terminus in
the city OF Worcester. His road was not repre-
sented at the appointment of the commissioners,
nor consulted. An extension of his road was
not required either by public necessity or safety,
and would require large expenditures.
These points were not considered pertinent by
the court, as they arose from the terms of the
original act, and were therefore foreign TO this
inquiry
Mr.. George F. Hoar claimed that if certain
roads We're not bound by this act, all were re-
leased
MIR. Adrieh repeated his assertion that his
road could not be bound without their own ac-
ceptancc of the act, compelling them to build
an additional piece of road.
Mr.. Foster suggested that the building of a
piece of new road was not necessary, as the
Providence road could use the track of the Bos-
ton and Albany road already down.
The points presented were committed to Judge
Wells, who will prepare a written report, which
hewill submit to the full bench for argument on
Monday, November 81.

THE SOCIAL MOVEMENT.
LONsON, Nov. 14.-Scott Russell writes to the

between peers and wOrkingmen. He denies
positively that the objects or motives are polit-

severance in the effort in the interest of social
progress and reform.

THEATER To-NIGHT.-Mrs. Macrcady, who
will appear at Music hall tonight in the charac-
ter of Shylock, played in Providence, Monday
evening, where she drew out first class audi
ence. The Press Of that city says of her:
"Mrs Macready is said to be the only lady
who has ever attempted TO play the part of Shy
lock; but it was rendered by her in Il manner
that evinced thorough familiarity with the
text, critical appreciation of the character and
the talent of the trained and accomplished clO-
cuti0niSt; in fine, it may safely be said that no
lady could have acted Shylock better. The dra-
matte talent Of Alice Placide, MS Portia, was
shown throughout the piece The choosing OF
the caSket, and the trial of Antonio, perSOnated
by Mr.. Alfred Knight, were effective scenes.
Miss Anita Harris, us JesSca, and Mr.. Joseph
Seton as LauncelOt, were excellent in their
parts; and, in fact the principal actors were
well supported by the rest Of the talented com
pany generally"

The Famous Auctioneer.

The most efficient auctioneer that
ever lived probably, was George
Robins, of London, who flourished
about thirty or forty years ago His
advertisements were marvellous piec-
es of composition, which none of
his successors in the same business
have ever succeeded in initiating.
He was very Admirable Crichton,'
man of universal knowledge, new
er at a loss and with a power of
magnifying the good qualities of
wares he was selling, such as no
auctioneer, before or since his day,
has ever possessed. 1t was literary
treat 10 see and hear him sell a Ii
brary; but the place best fitted for
the display of his abilities was the
sale of fine country house.
In1S20, the magnificent Fonthill
Abbey, owned by the brilliant Beck
for, care to the hammer. That it
would be knocked dow IL for a quar-
ter of its real value, seemed newt
able, but Robins was equal to the
emergency. Taking the advantage
of the great fame of Beckford, and
the rumors which described the
house as surprising the grandest
palaces of the East in sumptuous
elegance, he announced that no one
would he admitted 10 view the house
who did not purchase a catalogue
price, one guinea. The fashionable
world felt bound to see these won
derful sighss, and rushed in crowds
to buy catalogues. Eighty thou
sand of them were sold, and people
journeyed from all parts of the king
dom to feast their eyes on the mar
valous Fonthill. In the height of
the furore, the sale began, and last
ed thirty-three days. The Abbey
was knocked down for f330, ,000-a
third more than its worth. Pictures,
furniture, etc., brought fabulous
sums. RaphaePs Saint Catharine
sold for f5, ,250; and the contents
of the house realized the enormous
sum of f1,000,00O. Once Robins
had to sell, among the effects of a
deceased merchant, silverware a.
mounting to over six hundred
ounces. Duplicates of the pieces
had been made in Sheffield ware, for
daily use, and by some accident the
real silver, on the first day of the
sale, was knocked down as plated.
The next day, the Sheffield ware be-
ing put up, its real character was at
once discovered. Tie purchasers
of the silver disappeared, and Rob
ins promptly paid the loss out of
his own pocket.-BoSton Record.
