When he saw Christ as the Hebrew
Messiah he bowed, and said, "Wher
God revealed His Son conferred no
with flesh and blood" In perusing the
epistles to the Corinthians and the
ThessaOnians, We may term him as the
preacher Of preachers, the preacher o.
the resurrection. He held himself aloo
from the Platonic idea of flying off tt
heaven at death, and also the Epicu'
rean idea of a non-resurrection; and fol
this cause he was chained.
Thy brother shall rise again. Amid
the desolation of death we hear this
cry. During the sleep of death comes
the cry "thy brother shall rise again, y
and as the waves of death roll on, still
rssounds "thy brother shall rist
again." Why 7 Because Christ has the
keys OF death. The light on the cloud
Of death is "thy brother shall rise
again." The light OIL the dark imagery
of the grave is "thy brother shall rise
again." Why? Because Christ will
come. He said previous to His depart
ure: ~ will come again, and receive
you unto myself, that where am, there
ye may be also."
That same Jesus who went to the
grave Of Lazarus will come here to the
grave of our deceased friend. CHANGING
toward the deceased's mother, Mr.. h
said "thy sou shall rise again." "We
sorrow not as those who have no hope,
for the resurrection blazes through the
grave.
In alluding to the deceased Mr.. X.
said he was born in England, and after,
wards removed to Pittsburg and Will.
mington. He had been connected with
the Household Of Faith for two years
and was good member. The House
hold had lost from its family one who
was valuable and highly appreciated
but he would say to his family "He
shall rise again." They will miss him
His aged mother had said he was kind
to her and had never given her cross
word. This was pearl to his lips
What a precious memory. What an eX
ample to boys who have mothers tt
love. How the brothers looked to him
HIsTEsTIMoNY.
When asked 'Can you trust Christi
with the broad brogue of the English
with the manly tone Of the British, ht
answered IL can, indeed" Previous
to his death he was asked "lf the
worst comes to the worst, what" HI
answered "When ! gave my hand tt
the church, l gave my heart tt
Christ"
Farewell, Bro. Powell 1t is not the
last look, as was remaked at the house
We shall meet beyond the river,
When the surges cease to roll.
Good night 'Tis but little while
before the Morning Star will appear.
"He shall rise again" We shall be
satisfied to meet him on the resurrec-
tion morn. In the meantime let us
sorrow not as those who have nc
hope. The choir then sang "We're
going home on the resurrection morn
ing" During the funeral sermon and
the last hymn, many persons could not
restrain their tears, and the deceased's
family and relatives would break forth
in expressions of beatiflc resignation.
The doxology was sung in conclusion.

DUST TO DUST.

The Funeral Services of George w.
POweIl-The Body Viewed by a
vast number Of PeOple-Tbe FL.
nal Ceremonies.
The funeral services Of George W.
Powell, the lanented victim Of that dire
disease, hydrophobia, we're performed
Yesterday afternoon. The deceased was
,;lad in a neat black suit, with white
waistcoat. The discolored portions Of
his face and clenchsd hands reminded
one Of the great suffering which he en-
dured. He was placed in mahogany
casket having six large handles and
silver-plated fastenings. A number OF
flowers were placed around him.
The deceased was viewed between
the hours of eleven in the morning and
awhile after three o'clock in the after
noon. At the first named hour some
three or four hundred school children
called to see him, and from that time
onward till fths time of the services, a
continuous stream Of humanity poured
through the dwelling, entering front
door and passing through the house
and making their exit by door in the
rear of the residence.
After short prayer by Rev. Geo. R.
Kramer, a choir consisting of eleven
ladies and gentlemen sang:
90 to thy rest In peace,
And soft be thy repOse:
Thy tolls are o'er, thy troubles cease,
From earthly cares, In sweet release,
Thine eyelds gently close,
From earthly cares, In sweet release,
Thine eyelids gently close;
Gently close.

MEssRs EDIToRs:-Now that We have
lost another good citizen in the person
of Mr.. George W. Powell, "and the dog
question being agitated," l will
simply give a few of my own ideas of
what ought to be done." notice one of
your correspondents proposes "exter-
mination," but that consider.."is o.
ing little too far" But would sug-
gest that our City Council pass an
ordinance compelling "all citizens"
who think they must have dogs "to
keep them muzzled," at least while
running at large" and also make it
obligatory for the police officers "to
shoot down every dog caught on the
street without the muzzle," whether
he wears the strap and "medal" or
not. This law works we'll in Baltimore
"and other cities" and why would it
not work here? For my part could
never see the necessity of dogs in city
at all, but since there are those who
think they cannot get along without
the "purp," let us compel them to
keep him MUzzLEn.

WILMINGTON, Oct. 10, 1873.
MEssRs. EDIToRs In the locality OF
Elm and Jackson streets is the Bethany
Baptist Church; they have very pleas
ant place TO worship and good congre-
cations, but for some time past it has
been, and is very unpleasant for ladies
and children to pass to and from wor-
ship and Sunday School, on account of
the gang of young ruffians that infest
that neighborhood, especially the cor
ners of Jackson and Elm, Jackson and
Chestnut streets polluting the air with
their oaths and obscene remarks. His
Honor, the Mayor, has been appealed to
in vain to stop it. | have been told
that if warrants are issued officers will
not serve them. Is there not some way
by which we can be protected from iu-
suit and injury. A SUFFERER.

A Case Lsng Drawn Out

A case was decided before Esquire
Brady yesterday, by referee, which has
been standing since June Is, last. II
was case in which Charles Williams,
COL, brought action against Lawrence
J. Rigney for forcible entry and de-
tainer. Williams purchased a lot Of
ground in 1874, from the old Webb
property, on Hawley street, near Sec
ond, which was surveyed at the time
by Daniel Farra. In 1878 Mr.. Rigney
purchased a lot adjoining Williams
property, and in building Mr.. R. ran a
few feet on Williams line. Williams
thereupon brought suit, and after seve-
raj delays the case was decided yester-
day, the referees rendering a decision
that there was no cause for action, but
gave Judgment against defendant for
costs, which amounted to about $50, or
four times the value of the ground in
controversy.

Chastine Cox, alias Francis the murderer of
Mrs. Hull in New York, says when he was I'm
the room OF Mrs. Hull she awoke and recoCniZ-
Ing the perl she i, was 10 exclaimed; Whatever
hand over her mouth, she struggling all the
time to release herself. Finally she became
quiet, he holding her firmly all the time, and.
taking the sheet In his right hand. he tore IL
with his teeth into strips. He placed one eud
OF the sheet over her mouth and then proceeded
TO bind her as her body was afterward found.
His object IN tying her 70 the bed was because
he feared that she might manage 10 roll OF on
the floor and thereby make a noise which would
arouse some OF the inmates OF the house. He
says he had no idea that he was exercising vio-
lence sufficient 10 cause death or even that Sc
rious results would follow the affair. At this
juncture he did not have the least idea that the
womanwas going to die. After tying her feet
he says he lighted piece Of candle he happened
TO have In his pocket. He returned TO the kitch-
subsequently found the rest OF the jewelry in
the bureau drawers and In the bed chamber.
On DIS return TO the chamber, finding Mrs. Hull
breathfng hard, he became frightened, and,
selling the bottle OF cologne, poured its contents
over her face. As she continued TO breathe hard
ne oashed pitcher OF water over her person.
When he was searching for the Jewelry he went
through the trunk OF his victim and after pour
ing water over her he hastily fed by the front
door, which he left open after him He says he
did lot outrage the poor woman and further
that such thought never entered his mind. On
leaving the house he returned to his lodgings
on west Both street and got home and into bed
without any OF the inmates knowing IL. lie never
drank anything, so he knew what he was talk
ing about. The first he knew OF the murder. he
says, was on the next day, when riding on sth
avenue the driver remarked, "What q terrible
affair that was last night on Forty-seeond
street? l see Mrs. Hull has been robbed and
murcered. Cox says when he was told this
tne blood rushed up into his head and he felt
as III be was burning. After leaving the driver
he went up TO ForJy-third street and on passing
opposite TO Mrs. Hulls house saw Detective
Schmitberger and other detectives. He said he
old not dare look at Mrs. Hull's house and went
TO his lodgings. He started for Boston on the
THURSDAY following the murder, reaching there
Friday morning. He returned to New York TO
get his things at his boarding house on the fol-
lowing Monday, and while on his way to his Old
lodgings passed the New York detectives again.
They did not suspect him and he went back TO
Boston safe again on Friday last. The officers
have recovered at the pawnshop OF one CO.
hen, Green street, New York a diamond ring
stolen from the Hull mansion and pawned by
Cox.
The arrest was accomplished mainly through
the instrumentality OF VIM. r. Balch a young
man who does special newspaper work for the
Boston papers.
