SPoRTsMEN's ORGANIZATION w e are request
ted to announce that there Mill be a meeting of
sportsmen at Gaithersburg on Saturday,
January sth, for the purpose of efecing the
organization of a permanent association for
he protection of game, fora rigid enforcement
of the game laws, and recommending to the
Legislature The passage of such other laws as
the association may deem necessary for the
preservation of such game as may have sur
viyed the hunting season. An association Of
this character is much needed as il is notori-
GUS fact that many partridges after the hunt
ing season and during the deep SHOWS are
completely slaughtered for the purpose of dis
posing Of them at the Washington market, and
only a rigid enforcement of the laws will
remedy the evil We hope every sportsman OF
the county will make it convenient to be there.

A BREhCH or PRoMIsE CASE IN VIRGINIA -
In the Circuit Court Of King William county,
Va. last week, the case Of Miss Della P. Mill
against Jnmcs G. I.iilepage, foralleged breach
of promise Of marriage resulted in verdict
of s.. 500 for the plaintiff According TO the
plaintiffs testimony the defendant com
menced his courtship in 1862, shortly after
which they were engaged, and continued so
until February, 1873 at which time she was
induced TO 90 TO Baltimore by the defendant
for the purpose of getting ready for the we'd
ding. the defendant telling her he would fol-
low on the next boat, aud if she did not go
then he would never marry her. The plain
tiff went. but the defendant did not go, and
not long after her arrival in Batimone she
learned that the defendant had married his
present wife. The plaintiff testified TO various
presents the defendants photograph, a gold
pepcil. handsome watch key, engageme :
ring. &c. The defendant denied most of the
important averments of the plaintiff-deny-
ing the promise of marriage and the gold
ring, saying she took the photograph, and
that he gave the watch key because she had
lost hers. 1t was proved that the plaintiff
came back to King William county as soon as
she was able. after she heard of defendants
marriage, and lived in great suffering and
1estitu,ian in her kitchen, her house having
heen burned down during her absence. A
motion for a new trial was overruled by the
Judge.

SPECIAL MEETING-THE SUBJECT OF DEL-
AwARE's QUOTA TO THE CENTENNIAL
DISCUSSED.
The Board of Trade held n special
meeting. last evening, the President, W.
Hastings, in the chair.
The meeting was held for the purpose
Of considering plans for raising Della
wares quota to the Centennial fund.
Upon invitation. Mr.. Joseph Grnbb
addressed the Board in relation to the
Centennial. urging upon the members
the necessity of u united effort in the
matter of raising the necessary amount
OF money, and expatiating upon the i'm
mcnse benefits which will accrue to this
State by reason OF it's proximity to Phil
adeiphia. He esteemed Delaware's quo
ta Of S32 900 rather moderate demand.
and urged that some means be adopted
by which the necessary amount can he
obtained
Mr. Heald moved that the Legislature
be asked for $32 900, Delawars's quota in
MD OF the Centennial.
Mr.. jenkins moved that an amend
ment be made to Mr., Heald's resolution
by asking Of the Legislature $4,000 and
of the City Council $1,000.
The amendment was thoroughly de
bated. some contending that to AJAX for
;20,0U0 would be sure death to the re-
quest, and others holding that We ought
to ask for $4,000, and il the Legislature
refused that amount, II could then grant
q less amount
Ignatius G. drnbb. Esq, the present
Secretary of State, and eY Deputy Attor-
ney General Bates being present, they
were invited by the Board to give their
views upon the matter.
Both gentlemen doubted the sspedi
ency OF stipulating $50. 900 as the amount
to be asked from the Legislature. and
thought that request for $4,000 would
bt more likely to meet with 81 favorable
response.
After several amendmonts aud aubati-
tutes the following resolution was
adopted:
Rssolte,t. That the Board OF Trade OF
Wilmington do hereby express their
