Almost n Murder,

About nine months ago, young man named
Thomas Libby. aged %, and generally known
about town, was discarded by Miss Hattie
Rolfe, daughter of Mr.. Charles P. Rolfe,w re-
sides at No. Cedar street, because of his in
temperate habits. Before that event and even
since, the fellow has threatened to take the life
of the young woman, and while under the i'm
pulse of bad whiskey, last night about 11.3O
o'clock, repaired to the residence Of Mr. Rolfe
(as tits supposed) Miss Rolfe and her sister
having retired to an upper room in the story
and a half house which had a dormer-window,
were preparing to retire, when they were terri
fed by pistol shot and bullet which crashed
through the window and embedded itself in
the wall, almost grazing the head of Miss Rolfe.
AS soon as they could, an alarm was given but
the man could not be found. Mr.. Rolfe notified
Deputy Williams, who with officer Horn went
to the Commercial House, where Libby has
been boarding, and going to his room found it
locked and barrac3ded. The officers forced an
entrance and found the fellow in a drunken
sleep with heavy navy revolver at his side
with two empty chambers, and wbiskey flask
entirely empty. The fellow had not taken off

A LIVELY CAUcUs.-The Democratic ward
delegates met at the ward room of ward three
last evening, to choose delegates at large to the
District Convention, holden in this city 70 day.
A lively hair squall was INDUCED in and the
delegates from ward two seeded. Until lately
the Democracy have been too dispirited to in
dulge in quarreling, but the prospect of war
of the races in the South has apparently invig-
GRATED them, and they fell to fighting last night
with all their old-time vigor.
Mr.. Gardner Jordan presided He was ncm-
mated and elected in hot haste, and a commit
tee Immediately appointed to receive ballots for
delegates. Mr. John B. Littletield from ward
two was appointed on the committee, but en-
phatically declined to serve, intimating that
the whole affair was cut and dried. So the
votes were counted without the aid of Mr.. Lit
tlefeld
A motion was made and carried that the del
egates be voted for on one ticket. Capt A. j.
NJ Mahon strongly opposed the motion, claim
ing that list should be made out by represent
tatiyes from each ward, so that no ward should
be sighted. Mr.. L. f. Pingree also opposed
the motion. Mr. James Cunningham follow
eu, ueuOunCluS Tile CAUCUS DIS pachtu, duu
declaring that list of delegates had been pre-
pared and was to be rushed through. Manas
sch Smith, Esq, attempted to still the troubled
waters, but was snubbed by Capt. M'Mahon,
who vehemently asserted that the caucus was
packed, and protested against list of dele
gates which contained no representative from
the banner Democratic ward.
The caucus proceeded to vote, however, and
chose as delegates L. d. NJ. Sweat,C. Ii. Fling,
E. c. Shaw, S. r. Lyman, Alvin Neal and Ira
Wtham. Ward two refused to vote and pro-
tested against the action taken. The caucus
broke up in much confusion.
1t is understood that the delegates from ward
two are supporters of D. III. Ingraham, Esq,
for candidate for Congress, and they claim that
the number of his adherents enttle him to a
delegate at large. They say ward two has
been oversaughed and its wishes disregarded,
and that an outrage is perpetrated in refusing
it, the heaviest Democratic ward in the city, a
place on the list of delegates at large Init
nations that the caucus was packed are not
| infrequent, and threats of boiling are freely
| INDUCED in 1t is claimed that unfair play has
| been used towards Ingraham.

POLICE NOTES. "A despatch was received
Yesterday from Biddeford asking for the arrest
of young girl named Nettie Whidden and her
return to her home. Deputy Marshal Williams
took the case in hand and after long search
found the girl at house of ill fame on Fore
street. She was returned by the five O'Clock
train.
About two weeks ago lady living on India
ST. eet missed lot of iewelry valued at about
$50. She gave the matter to Deputy Marshal
Williams to work up The officer suspected
certain young woman, and yesterday he visited
her and charged her with the theft. She at
once confessed her guilt and gave the officer
the jewelry. She said she had been almost
ready to give it to the lady several times but
did not dare to. The matter will probably be
settled up as the owner of the stolen articles
does not wish 10 prosecute the young girl.
