Rev. Robert Il. Kemp.

ACTION OF THE WILMINGTON NJ. E. PREACHERS
MEETING.
We have heard, with profound sorrow, of the
death OF our Brother, Rev. Robert L. Kemp, at
Greensborough, Caroline Co., M1 March 9Th,
1875, and we hereby desire to record our appre-
ciation of his eminent christian character, and
his earnest labors for forty-three years, in the
church of God
In the demise of Bro. Kemp, Pennsular
Methodism has lost one of her historic charac-
blended with her development, and whose ac-
tive ministry Of thirty years was enriched with
unusual toll and with many extraordinary revi-
vals.
His private christian life, as he moved among
us, WAS beautifully illustrative of that charity
that speaketh no evil, and of the peculiar power
which religion possesses to sweeten aud hallow
declining years.
In his sudden removal from us We are ad-
monished of the uncertainty Of lifes tenure. and
called with solemn emphasis to "work while the
day laets' that we, too, may receive, at the Mas
ter's hand tho crown Of life.
We hereby tender to the bereaved family, in
this hour Of sorrow, the assurance of our most
sincere sympathy praying the God of all conso-
lation that they may be absolutely sustained i'll
submission to his will, and at last, come to the
"inheritance of the Saints in light"

Pure Patriotism and DIsInterested
BenevOIence.

PHILADELPHIA, March 8.
TO The Editor Of the Commercial:
In these degenerate days Of "Credit Mobi-
liers, Salary Crabs" "Ring Schemes" "sub-
sidy Brbes, public peculation and private ra-
pacity, it is refreshing to find man, that is ac-
tuated by pure patriotism and disinterested be-
nevolence. We Philadelphians are indebted to
your own State for the agreeable sensation of
beholding and communing with one such noble
character in the person of your illustrious fel-
low citizen, Eli Crozier. His presence recalls
the glorious memories of the olden time ;
his historical hat, once white but now browner
than the hoary locks that crown his head, re-
wives the magnetic eloquence and captivating
bearing of Henry Clay his earnest and sue
oessful efforts to rescue the soldiers monument
from the desecrating clutches of the sheriff,
and redeem his state from eternal obloquy and
her dead heroes from disgrace, thrill us like the
possesses citizens whose civic virtues are not
eclipsed by the most renowned patriots OF
Greece or Rome.
With mingled feeling of admiration and odium
we have viewed the allegorical painting that
vividly depicts his journey from the Pennsylva-
mia line to the "Sussex Sands on his holy mis-
sion. We venerate the worthy men who con-
tributed their means to ransom Delaware from
an ineffaceable stigma, and whose names are
blazoned on ''the Roll Of Honor" in the bright
colors of their country. With rilicule, scorn
and derision we regard the parsimonious and
disloyal creatures who were too niggard-
ly to give of their abundance single
farthing to avert the impending calamity. Bet
ter for the ingrates that they had never been
born, or that a milestone were tied around their
necks and they cast into the sea than that they
should have been thus gibbeted for their base
ness and their names made kissing and re-
proach.
Thanks to glorious Eli Crozier for thus making
Delaware will become great in the eyes Of the
people if it will furnish other men Of his noble
type of character.

The Use of Lent.

A correspondent of the Elkton (Md.) Demo
crdt considers the lenten season in its medical
and hygienic aspects and writes
You cannot conceive the good Lent does as
regards the health of the community at large.
and will endeavor briefly to show you how. In
the first place, it gives temporary rest to all the
organs of the body, except, of course, the heart
and lungs, and secondly, it prevents disease by
relaxing the strain upon the digestive apparatus
to a marked degree, and thus prevents various
affections OF the liver, stomach and kidneys.
which frequently succumb to an uninterrupted
amount of work the year around man or beast
cannot work always. This the wise Creator saw
when he set the Sabbath aside as day of rest
to all creatures, and still should the organs of
the body be expected to work, day and night
without rest, and yet remain sound? This is
impossible, and every heath-loying individual
should take these things into consideration.
And Lent, by diminishing the amount of food to
be digested, gives untold value in recreation to
the weary organism, and as a man is stronger
after rest, 30 are his organs, and thus disease
may often be warded off.

The New Hampshire Victory.

The Republican victory in New Hampshire is
sweeping, and goes beyond the expectation of
everybody. We hoped to zee the hold which the
Democrats had laid upon the State shaken, but
we had no idea that it would be entirely thrown
of. That the Republicans should secure ma
ority in both Houses Of the Legislature is alone
decided and most satisfactory victory, for both
branches had a Democratic majority, last year.
aud many districts were scandalously gerryman-
dered, in order to give the Democrats an advan-
tage. But add to this that our Governor is elect
ed by majority of the popular vote, and that
we have elected two. or probably all three, of
the Congressmen, and the completeness of tho
success appears

Later returns make the result in the State
doubtful. Returns from the Congressional dis
tricts insufficient to indicate positive results.
The Republicans claim the election Of their cam

the elections of Governor by the people doubt
full. The Legislature will be very close.
I'VE discredit the concluding portion of this

Especial Dispatch to the New ork Tinies.l
CONCORD, N. H., March 0.
The Republicans have achieved a decisive vic
tory to-day in New Hampshire. We have elec-
ted the Governor and good major., in both
branches of the Legislature, and probably all
the til ee Congressman. The whole Democracy
have been met at every point and defeated.
ELECTION RETURNS By WAY OF BOSTON.
BosToN, Mass, March 9.--Dispatches from
New Hampshire up to this hour indicate an un-
usually large vote by ench party, and possible
Republican victory through the Prohibition vote,
which is very generally being cast for the Re-
publican nominees.
The Republicans already claim the Governor
and the Second and Third Congressional Dis
tricts.
The election of Frank Jones, Democrat Con
gressonal candidate in the First District, is con-
ceded by the Republicans.
Portsmouth, in the First District. has gone
Democratic by an increased majority. Jones,
who is resident OF the city, has majority
there of 100, against Democratic majority of
ii last year.
A Concord dispatch from Republican source
says: 1.-The news of Republican victory is
confirmed beyond doubt, and rejoicngs have
begun everywhere. Chenoys majority is proba-
bly, small. The Legislature is Republican by a
good working majority. 1t is known that Jones
(Democrat) is elected in the First District, and
Blair (Republican) in the Third, Kent his oppon-
ent, running behind his ticket. The contest is
close in the Second District.
The Monitor says 1.-THE returns received
this afternoon indicate beyond a peradventure
that the Republican Party has won a triumph,
even if it has not made clean sweep, and has
undoubtedly elected Mr.. Cheney on the popular
vote, and carried the House by an overwhelm-
ing majority, and the Senate two to one.'

The Republican State Committee are conf
dent that they have carried the State.
The indications are that the Republicans have
elected their Governor and carried the Senate
and House of Representatives.
Wonderful Republican gains are reported
from almost every section Of the State.
Tie Democrats are reticent as to the result,

MILFORD, DEL, March 8.
Dull time still continue, the weather proving
so unfavorable that but little can be done. AS
soon as we do have settled weather, we expect
to see everything more forward again. Work
will be resumed in the ship yards, where there
are three large vessels on the stocks. Some
new houses will also be built and old ones NOV
ew and repaired.
The wheat begins to look better since the
weather has moderated, and it is thought there
will be some good crops Of wheat yet although
in other localities it looks bad.
One of those hard winds one night recently
blew down Robert McColleys barn and stables.
His horse and yoke of oxen were in the stable,
but neither were burt. 1t seems that the wind
lifted the building up over them and when it
fell Just few feet from where it stood, it was
shivered. The building will have to be replaced
by new one.
DIR. Marshall, yesterday, had large willow
tree cut down in his back yard to give chance
for improvement The tree has been standing
there for many years.
Our shippers have all started out again, rum
ming wood and ties. The greater part of the
grain is being shipped by steamers from Lewes.
