FOUND DEAD-W Walter Mifiin, who was
living near Wyoming, this county, was found
dead near Todd's Mill, about two miles from
that town, last Saturday night about eleven
o clock. His horse was found near by, and it
is generally supposed tha: ne fell out of his
wagon and broke his neck whilst in state of
intoxication, as a bottle of brandy was found
in his possession. The Coroner held an inquest
last Sunday morning, but the jury were unable
to decide the cause of his death, so they post
poned rendering verdict for a week. Many
suspicion that he was murdered and robbed,
but, as he was unfortunately given to excessive
drinking this is not the generally received opin-
ION. Mr.. Mitf1in was somewhat advanced in
years, and owned the farm upon which be
lived

CAMDEN ITEMS. Camden, Nag 25th, 1874
improvements here during TIE present sea-
son have beer greater than they have been for
several years past In the first place, the old
office formerly occupied by Alderman Nc.
Bride, was reEOdeled and made boot and
shoe store by David Harrington, formerly of
Dover Then James w. Cats followed suit
by tearing off the top of his grocery store and
post office, and enlarging, plastering and paint
ing the same in such a manner as would be
impossible to distinguish it from new build
ing. The old saloon formerly kept by James
5arcus has been repaired and turne1 into a
grocery and confectionery store by two enter
prising young men, Messrs Hinesley & Benson.
Jos. e. Mcbride has now in course of erection
fine store building, which will add consider
ably to the appearance of the town. Alex.
LOber is enlarging his stove and hardware
store, and Alex. Jackson Sr. has made an ad-
dition to his. dwelling. We also notice an i'm.
prOvement around the store of Wesley Stevens
and the residence of Jabez Jenkins, and ar
rangements are being made to lower the gal
ery and make other improvements in the VI.

been reorganized barber shop opened and
an addition made to the house of VIM Carter,

POLITICAL BLINDNESS. Some of the most
potential speeches made in Congress in favor
OF the Government appropriating three millions
OF dollars to help pay for the Centennial
Exhibition to be held in PHILADELPHIA in 1876
have been made by Senator Bayard. Not a
Democratic paper in this State, however so
TAR as we have noticed, raised any obiectien TO
their Senator's views. But when Representa-
tive Lofand finally yields to the pressure to
make a speech, and makes one that is NOT
dlscredltable, if not brilliant, in advocacy of
OF the same measure advocated by Senator r
these papers ridcue the Representative round
ly and pass by the Senator in silence. They
would not oppose the measure, as a measure
whilst their partisan stood alone in its advocacy
they felt bound to oppose it when their
political opponent held to its advocacy The
question is, why did they not oppose the
appropriation, if they oppose it at all, as \
matter of governmental polity, from thestart.
and not wait for prejudice to an opponent to
bring it out?
