Marine Disaster.


PORTSMOUTH. February II. Frank Dill
lingham. the murderer, was arraigned this
morning. He pleaded guilty and was COM
mitted without bail.
LATER. - Dillingham;, the Londonderry
murderer, in Jail here, was thought to be in a
dying condition tonight, and a physician
hastily summoned. Upon his arrival the
patient was found to be in a high fever and
showing symptoms of compression of the
brain which is liable to prove fatal. He now
lies perfectly insensible.
PORTSMOUTH, February Is. Frank Dill
lingham the murderer, died this forenoon
from the effects Of pistol shot wounding his
head Immediately after killing his aunt. He
was arraigned for the crime yesterday when
he plead not guilty, after which his mental
condition began TO be greatly disturbed and
he seemed to realize the enormity of his
crime, and after being taken to his cell he
exhibited great excitement and agony Of
mind. The prisoner made no confession be-
fore he died. Had his case come to trial,
however, it would have been shown that the
prisoner first shot Mrs. Dilli:gham while she
was sitting in a chair. with the pistol close to
her head. Then he tied a rope around her
neck to stop her groans and outcries after he
had been unable to do so by striking her with
hammer upon the head, and that no outrage
was committed

Railroad Matters.
The Herald SAYS: The report that the
Boston and Maine and Eastern railroads had
consolidated, is declared false by the presi-
dents of both roads. The statement grew
out of the fact that there has been meeting
of the committees of both roads, to consider
how the interests of both the roads could be
harmonized, there having been friction"
between them.
The Boston passenger agents OF certain
prominent railroads running into the city,
have issued a circular addressed ''to whom it
may concern and announcing that, on and
after the first Of March, payments Of COM
missions or rebates in any form on their re-
spective parts of tickets, or the issue Of
foreign roads between Boston and New Haven
and Boston and New York, or points beyond
in either direction, will be discontinued. 1t
is stated that this order will prove great
relief to guests and hotel proprietors who
will escape opportunities of brokers.
Railroad Accident.
SPRINcfIELD, February II. A tender and
baggage car of the northward bound passen-
ger train on the New Haven and Northamp-
ton X. r., was thrown from the track below
Southwick this morning by the breaking Of the
tender truck. The coupling held firm and
kept them on the embankment until the train
stopped. One passenger was bruised.

1.-THE CITIZEN AND THE
DRAMSHOP."
A Lesson in Political Economy
for the Taxpayers.

Granite Hall, galleries and all, was filled
with people yesterday afternoon to hear Rev.
Mr. Vibbert of Massachusetts lecture on
temperance. After prayer by Rev. DIR.
Qunby aud singing by the audience Of RES
cue the pcrishing," Rev. Mr.. Sargent intro
duced the speaker.
Mr.. Vibbert has not the dramatic eloquence
of Cough, or the pathetic, touching power
Of a Murphy; he deals not in thrilling de-
scriptions that excite the emotions Of the au-
dience, but he presents the subject in fresh
and convincing light, appealing to the COM
mon sense and common interest of the masses.
He saws .sThe most sensitive nerve in Yam
kee Is the nerve that leads to his pocket,
and upon that nerve he brings his intellectual
battery to bear with peculiar skill and power.
The lecturer invited his hearers to consider
the subject of intemperance in a new light;
to lock at in business mans standpoint as
frightful drain upon the purses of the proper
| ty holding portion Of the community. After
alluding to the loss of time through the drink
| ing habits Of the operatives in America, he
worse in England,-that in many large man
utactores in that country one day every week

United States was getting ahead Of England
in manufacturing was that the American
mechanics's head was not so liable to De

money that the rumshops take out OF legit-
innate business. There are in the United
States l59, 900 men licensed to deal out wet

man amends one-fourth of his money for
iiouors. the butcher, the baker, and the
candlestick maker" must suffer in cOnse-
quence.
Think of the crimes that are committed by
parties under the influence Of stimulants.
Sir Matthew Hale said that five-sixths of the
crime in England arose from rum drinkers
I would like to take you to Boston and give
YOU an object lesson at the Chardon street
hospital of the misery and disease which in
temperance entails upon its victims. we
have only to beat the idea Of its cost into the
heads of the monied men when State street
will rise up and throttle the liquor interest.
The peroration on the social side OF the
question was not only eloquent and impress
sive, but thrilling as we'll. He described the
broken homes and broken hearts which can
be traced to the wine cup. and exhorted his
hearers to enter the great battle against the
most gigantic evil the world groans under
and fight to the last gasp and the last drop Of
blood for the cause of truth and temperance.

New York, February IA. Charles Stewart
Parnell has written letter to Drexel, Nor
gan & Co., acknowledging the receipt of their
letter of the 18th inst. containing reasons for
declining to act as treasurers Of the Irish relief
fund He says they do not in their letter give
the full reasons assigned to Parnell by them
for their singular action, and reminds them
of further statements made by them to Miss
Parnell in explanation of their course. He
complains that they have only given partial
information to the public, and asks them for
detailed information as to drafts received by
them on account Of the relief fund since their
resignation, and also as to the disposition
they have made of these drafts.

from the words, Thy will be done ON earth,

The Freedmen's Bank.
The Senate select committee on the
Freedman's bank. to-day examined Marshall
Frederick Douglass. former president, and
Tompkins and Augusta. bookkeepcrs of the
institution. Marshall Douglass testified
that soon after his appointment as president.
he discovered that the bank was unsound and
made known his discovery to the Banking
committee of the Senate, who speedily en-
acted legislation, which placed the institute
ton in the hands Of the present commission
ers. He testified he was the only trustee of
that concern that had any deposits there when
the bank failed, and that at one time he loaned
$40. 600 to tide it over impending difficulties.
He believed the present commissioners had
done the very best they could possibly have
done to realize upon the assets Of the com.
pany, and their administration was judicious
and faithful in the highest degree. When
asked his opinion as to the cause Of the
banks failure, Mr.. Douglass said that the
principle on which it was founded was de-
fective one, that no monied institution based
upon class or race preferences could hope to
be permanently successful. Bookkeeper
Tompkins in defense of charge that his
ledger pages, containing his accounts, was
missing, testified to the bad condition Of the
books, whole leaves lying loose between
