THE TEMPERANCE MEETING
.ARGE GATHERINGS AT INSTITUTE Hall
AND THE OPERA uousr

LAhSE EHATHERlNGS AT INSTITUTE Hall
AND THE OPERA HOUSE.
The temperance work in this city still
goes on with unabated vigor, the meetinos
being attended by large audiences. wbile
the number of signers to the pledge dallv
increases until it has reached about siy
thousand.
AT the Institute Hall meeting Saturday
night, the Juvenile Templas attended in
body, and the speeches delivered were
framed with word and sentiment exactly
suited to the understanding of the Youth
full auditors.
one OF the speakers was Esquire Fra
ger, who paid his respects 10 the Ererv
EUening, in response to an item in that
paper to the effect that Jefferson Davis
| is making union speeches, and Squire
Frazer is making temperance speeches !:
verify the world moves" The Squire
said he was proud to have his name asso-
ciated with such lum naries as jefferson
Davis, aud felt complmented that his
temperance course was attracting public
notice. lie then delivered a short. prac-
tlcal temperance speech, depicting the
evils OF intemperance, and urging eve, J.
body to enlist in the temperance cause,
During the II Getting some ill advised
person raised an alarm of fire, but fortu-
natety IL was at once suppressed, and a
panic, which would have occasioned dis
astrous consequences, owing to the crowd
ed condition of the Hall, was happily
avoided.
Yesterday afternoon another immense
audience crowded into the Opera House.
while hundreds more were unable ogain
admittance. George W. Wells presided,
and Rev. William j. stephenson, of Grace
Church, delivered an effective aud practi-
cal speech, abounding throughout with
plain temperance truths.
George Milo butcher also made one Of
bis thrilling and attractive speeches, in
the course of which he incidentally NEIL
ioned that he would, much to his regret.
leave Wilmington during the coming
week. Mr.. Wells requested all who de-
sired Mr.. butcher to remain longer to
rise upon their feet, whereupon the audi
ence rose as one, and remained standing
several minutes, amidst great applause.
In obedience to this unanimous request
Mr. butcher will probably remain anolh-
er week.
During the meeting number of per-
sonal experiences were briefly related by
reformed drinkers, each of whom was
greeted with vigorous applause and en-
couraging "Amens" Altogether the
meeting was the most agreeable and
enjoyable of any yet held.
During the coming week the Institute
Hall meetings will be continued each
night, and addressed will be made by

MAD DOG ExClTEMENT.-Yes Yester-
day afternoon, about two o'clock, the
Ninth Ward was greatly excited by the
appearance of a mad dog, which dashed
in from the Philadelphia pike, and rush.
ed around the Ward, swapping at every
thing in its way, but fortunately biting
nothing. Soon the Inhabitants of the
w ard rushed to arms, and without regard
to age, color or previous condition of SER
vitude, they assembled en- masse and gave
fierce pursuit to the rabid canine. Inc
brute withstood a Calling fire for several
minutes, but finally, well dire t ID to le
broke his fore shoulder, and another top
pied him into the race, where, between
the strangling efforts of the WATER and re-
peated blows on the head with large
club, he was dispatched. The dog was
quite large aud strong and might have We
done great amount of damage had he
not been so promptly killed.
