A
see a few lines in last evenings paper
from Friend Billy Dean, denying that he
had anything to do in prompting Senator
Ray, in bringing. before the Legislature
his famous dog law bill, which proposes
to break down the rights of owners of
property by compelling constables to go
ON their property and shoot their dogs
Billy you will please excuse me fer sup-
posing you helped get up that bill know
ing you to be so fanatical on the sheep
question, L supposed it was partly your
work. With regard to the yelloio cock
it was very large yellow Cochin China
cock chicken, and if it had not been for
my dog police in giving the alarm and as
sisting the officers of the law to track the
thief, he woeld have made his escape,
but instead of that in less than one hour
from the time the thief entered my chick
en- house he was caught and committed
to Jail, and the yellow cock restored to
the chicken house, the negro was stran-
ger here, it was said he came down from
near the Buck, and L suppose he had
been bailed out of Jail long before Court,
l did not intend to have appeared against
him, but when l went up to New Castle
one day intime of Court, two gentlemen
bailiffs came galanting said nigger into
Court, and then of course 1 had to tell
the Judge and jury that this same negro
stole my Nelto1o cock chicken, and by my
dogpolice gicing the alarm, said negro was
suddenly nabbed by the officers of the
law. Billy do not for one moment sup
pose, L insinuated anything against the
woolen manufacturer because he was
| sick. for the very first intimatioi re-
ceived of your being sick was from you
yourself last Saturday at the Middletown
meeting. .nI

We regret TO announce the death of MIR:
John West, OF Frederick, who departed
this life on Tuesday last, in the 9th
year of his age. Mr.. West was man
possessed of rare virtues, was a kind hus-
band, fond and affectionate father, true
Christian, and an inestimable citizen.
His death will be regretted by his many
friends and acquaintances, to whom he
had endeared himself by many acts o1
Christian charity; but they, as well as his
bereaved family, have the consolation to
know that he is freed from the sufferingsS
of this world and gone to meet his reward
in the mansions of eternal rest.

How A WILMINGTON MERCHANT BE-
CAME A TRAMp.-The editor of the Sea-
ford Citizen was visited in his Office last
week by poor, ragged, detected tramp,
whom be soon recognized as an old ac-
quaintance. The editor says: Sixteen
years ago this tramp was prosperous
merchant in Wilmington, talented, hon
est and the centre of attraction in the cir
Gle of society in which he moved. In an
unfortunate hour he was tempted by one
of Wilmington's fair daughters to ':look
upon the wine in its redness." Like a
draught of poison it sealed his fate. From
"a moderate drinker he developed into a
drtlnkard, neglected his business, became
pecuniarly involved, fell victim to the
Sheriff, was ostracised from society and
was reduced to penury and want. Over
come with remorse and shame he disap-
peared from Wilmington, and Wednesday
was the first time we had seen him for
Twelve years-now mere skeleton, q
wreck of what was once one of the no.
blest specimens of ''human anatomy" In
recounting the pleasant scenes surround
ing his once happy life, and of names ia
miliar to him; and telling him about the
prosperity of, and the changes in, the dear
old 'city on the hill, he wept like child.
He has been in every State in the Union
and says he does not know what motive
induced him to again come into Delaware.
This is not the production of an imagina-
tive brain, polished with romance, and de
signed to fill up vacant place in our To-
cal columns, but reality, and perhaps
many of those in Wilmington who read
this will recall to mind the lady, who,
prostrated with grief at the ruin she had
unconsciously wrought, died of broken
heart; and one incident in his subsequent
dissipated career, a petty theft, may serve
to tring more wildly to their minds the
circumstances. We promised not TO re-
veal his name and we shall keep that
promise inviolate.

SUDDEN DEATH.-La Saturday evening,
George W. Preston, freight deliverer in
this town for the railroad, was strangled
to death in about twenty minutes by
therush of blood from an internal abscess,
He was not known to be sick until the
community was startled by the announce
ment of his death. He had been com.
planning somewhat during the day, how
ever, and was in his room when the ca
lamity came upon him. George was q
respected, Industrious young man, and
though afflicted from early childhood
with broken back. he managed,i n
spite of frail constitution, to contribute
largely to the support of an aged mother
with whom he lived d-Smyrna Times.

ITS EFFECT ON THE AUDITORS.

During the reading all the spectators
gathered closer. Governor Wells was a
picture. He seemed to lose all control
of himself His face flushed, his lips
twitched, his eyes dropped and his hands
shook as with palsy, while he toyed with
the gray whiskers on his chin. West
read very rapidly. evidently dreading
that he might be in some way comprom-
ised, and drew q long sigh of relief when
he got down to the signature. There was
nothing damaging to him, however ex-
cept the freedom with which Wells
ventured to Sroach sucl subject to
United States Senator. As soon as h e
was through Mr.. Field inquired as to
the authenticity of the paper, and West
promptly replied, "Oh yes, l recognize
that as the handwriting of Madison
Wells, and recognize him all the way
through it," He then asked permission
to tell what he knew about Maddox, but
there was objection to this, unless he
took the stand and was sworn as wit
ness. 1t was agreed that he should be
called hereafter for this purpose. West
then renewed his request for copy OF
the letter, and ran across the room
to shake hands with Wells and Anderson.
With the latt er he had few whispered
words, and was then drawn aside by his
COuAStI, OOlO W AAoOAA'
Among the interested witnesses of the
proceedings before the committee to-
day was United States Marshal Pitkin,
of Louisiana, who had a long and con-
fidential chat in an undertone with his
friends of the Returning Board. Gov
ernor Kellogg is still in the city, and ad-
heres to the opinion that Everything
has gone"-to a very bad and uncomfort-
ably warm place.
In conversation last night Governor
Kellogg was very severe on Packard, be-
telieveing that he is not the man for
the crisis in Louisiana. ''It is all folly"
he said, "for Packard to undertake to
run a government under the circum-
stances, He hasn't any moral or physi
cal force whatever; everybody is against
him and he knows it. What a-fraud
it is? wouldn't think of trying to be
Governor of State against such Odds
He was also disgusted at the pretended
