A novel suit was tried before Squire
O'Neill last Saturday. 1t appears that
William johnson of Smyrna, was "a cred.
itor Of A. c. Thackery, shoe merchant
of this city, and in order to obtain his
money appeared before Squire Bertolette
and swore that he believed that Thack-
cry wa. about to remove his goods out
OF the State with intent TO defraud his
creditors. An officer was sent to Mr..
Thacksry's store 20 take an inventory
of his goods, when Mr.. 7. appeared be-
fore Squir. O'N"ill and had Johnson ar
rested on a charge of perjury. Mr.. 7.
had the business men on Second street
summoned to appear, who testified that
Mr.. T., was carrying Oh his business
in his usual manner, they believing that
he had no intention to defraud. John
son was unable to show any grounds
for his belief and the Squire held him
in $500 to answer ia court. The Squire
this merning stated to reporter of the
REPUBLICAN that too many creditors do
tho same thing that Johnson has done.
When creditor appears before him,
he must show good grounds for his be-
lief.

We have been handed the following
historical sketch of the N. T.. corner
of Fifth and Walnut streets written by
a little boy, which we give aplace in
onr paper.
"The building of which | am going to
speak is very remarkable one. 1t is
situated on the north east corner of 9th
and Walnut streets, and has been used
for great many purposes.
In o!den times l suppose it was a
handsome farm house. In the time of
the Revolutionary war it wss used for
a stable, and | have ofAn heard that
after the battle of Brandy~ine, some of
the English soldiers also used it for a
stable, hut am glad to think that it
will never be used by the English
again. 1t is building that | like very
much, because in it my grandfather
lived and died.
some years after this it had been
used as bOttling establishment by Mr..
David McCullin aud remained so for
some time.
At the present time it is owned by
Mr.. John McCalferty and is occupied by
a shoemaker named Mr.. Broomall.

Murder Trials In Cecil County.

Medford Waters, colored, indicted fol
the killing of jenkins Whalsy, also col
ored, in Sassafras Neck, Novem Der l3,
1878 was tried in the Circuit Court OF
Cecil county last week. The case was
given to the jury at o'clock on Wednes-
day. On Friday, about 1870 A. M, the
Jury came into court and announced that
they had agreed upon verdict. In re-
sponse to the usual question of the clerk
the foreman answered, equity of MUIR
der in the first degree" Counsel for
the prisoner then asked that the jury
be polled. When the name of the MEM
Der who had been holding the jury for
some time was reached, he simply an
swered, first degree" This not being
according to the prescribed form, the
Judge stated that he must answer as the
others had. Hesitating, he said he was
not prepared to do so, and proposed to
vote for murder in the second degree.
This disagreement was unexpected. The
Judge allo we'd the jury to retire again
to their room, but at II o'clock dis
charged them, there being no prospect
of an agreement. The case of Waters
will be taken up again to-day.
In the same court on Wednesday
afternoon Jane Tiller, colored, was put
on trial for the murder of an old colored
man named Robinson, who claimed to
be a conjuror, at Bunker Hill, Cecil
county, on the 10Th of September last.
On Thursday evening the jury rendered
a ver,,ict of manslaughter. She ad-
mtted the killing, but said that Hill
was a sorcerer and had charmed" her
by burylng herbs and things around
her house. The Evil Spirit told her
that the only way to get around the
% charm" was to murder the sorcerer.

The Chesapeake Bay has been frozen
over from Kent Island to Annapolis.
But tho freeze has worked more dis
asters to the dredging fleet than to other
shipping, several have sunk loaded
with oysters and seven lives have been
lost. In one case eight men went down.
On another boat one was frozen to death,
while anothsr's legs must come off up
at the knees. Several hundred Of these
dredgers are anchored about the Island
and are running out Of provisions and
have little money.
Our Christmas entertainments were
very cheerful, the children wish Christ
mas would come monthly.
The annual donation to the M. Z.
parsonage left enough Of -four, meat,

equally adjusted. No clashing here.

It's very rare that the distinguished
dead receive such expressions ofrespect
n those ELECTED by the deatA Of Hon.
Morton McMichasl. The outburst in
response to Mayor Stoklsy's call for
public meeting to bs held last Wednes-
day at noon was spontaneous. Never
before has ths spacious chamber of
Common Council greeted such adistin-
guished assemblage There were emil
mont men Of every profession and bust
ness. The sulogies were brilliant, sin
eere and honest, Mayor Stokley presid
ed, and the Hon. George H. Boxer and
ex-Mayor Daniel N. Fox acted as score
tariss.
Resolutions were submitted BY Mr..
II. c. Carey and efrsctually read by
Provost Stille after which eulogstic
speeches were made by the Hon. Ell X.
Price, General Robert Patterson, Col.
John W.. Forney, Daniel Dougherty
and others.
Col. Forney in the course Of his re-
marks said: "he is the only human
being | ever envied. envied him his
genial nature, his contagious wit, his
electric eloquence, the iervor of his
poetry, the charm of his conversation
the delicious sympathy of his society,
the admiration he excited IN others, his
superb composure under disaster, his
proud disdain of the housing bats who
cuffed his eagle soul from its well
earned .yrie. | envied him all these
great gifts, even as gloried in his sole
possession Of them" A similar meeting
was held on Thursday by the journa
lists of this city which was presided
over by Editor Mexican of the Ledyer,

A New Order,

Inc other day, after suapping young
man had sold a load of corn and potatoes
on the market, and had taken his team
to hotel barn to "feed." it became
known to the meg around the barn that
ne was very DESTROYS of joining some
secret society IL town. When questioned,
ne admitted that such was the case. and
the boys at once offered to initiate him
into new order, called ssThe Cavaliers
of Coveo." He vas told that it was twice
as secret as Free Masonry, much nicer
than Odd Fellowship, and the cost was
only two dollars. In case he had the
toothache he could draw five dollars per
week from the relief fund, and he was
entitled to receive ten dollars for every
headache, and twenty-five dollars for a
sore throat.
The young man thought he had struck
a big thing, and after eating a hearty
dinner, he was taken into a storeroom
above the barn to be initis Ia. The bows
poured cold water down Els back, put
flour on his hair, swore him to Kill his
mother, if commanded, and rushed him
around for an hour without single com.
plant from his lips. When thev had
finished, he inquired:
Nov am one of the Cavaliers of
Coveo, am IT,
"You are" they answered.
g nothing more to learn, is there2'
'sNothing.".
SWELL, then, I'm going to lick the
whole crowdr continued the candidate:
and he went at it, and before he got
through he had his two dollar initiation
fee back, and three more to boot, and
had knocked every body down two or
three times apiece. He didn't seem
greatly disturbed in mind as he drove
out of the barn. On the contrary, his
hat was slanted, he had a fresh five cent
cigar in his teeth, and he mildly said to
one of the barn-boys:
"Say, boy, if you hear of any Cava-
lier asking for a Coveo about nv size,
tell 'em III be in on the full of the moon
to take the Royal Skyfugle degrees"
