WESTEKN DEMOCRAT, CHAELOTTE, N. C From the New Orleans Commercial. A HEBOIC ADVENTUBE. On Thursday last, while about a dozen oyster amacks ere on their way to the "banks" in 31 is eiseippi Sound, they were surrounded by a num ber of launches from the enemy's ships; all were seized in the name of the Gorilla Government, and a guard put aboard each to conduct them un der the guns of the ships of war. One of the f macks thus teized was the Clide, commanded and owned by Capt. Kin, a man who has resided in this city since boyhood, and who is well known as a bravo and determinod seaman by all of his ac quaintance around the New Basin. A sergeant and one soldier was placed aboard the Clide, with orders to steer lor the New London, then some twelve or eighteen miles off. The wind was ahead and the boat had to beat all the way. The Clide. somehow, worked bably; all the rest of the t macks were soon several miles ahead, and still the con trary wind was blowing and the lazy boat dragged elowly along. So parsed the greater part of the day, and at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the fleet was yet several miles off. The soldiers on board the Clide grew hungry, and asked Capt. King if he had anything to eat aboard. He politely told them that there was plenty in the cabin a sort of little hold in the after part of the craft, reached by a narrow scuttle and two or three crooked steps. The sergeant volunteered to go down and get the victuals, directing the soldier to kecpa sharp watch while he did so. He started down the st ps with rifle in hand, Capt. King standing near, officiously showing the way. As soon as he had got into the cabin and was about to stoop and go forward, the hitherto polite and kind Captain sudJently seized his rifle, and jeiking it from his hand, shi t him dead on the spot. Not stopping to swap jack knive, Capt. King jumped forward, and seizing the other soldier'B pun before he had time to re cover from his fright and astonishment, comman ded him to surrender. The soldier saw there was no use to resist, gave up and was securely tied and laid in the hold. Capt. King then set all sail for Fort Pike, and as if understanding the necessity for haste, the little craft recovered f rom her languor, and sped over the water at railroad speed. And it wns well she did, for the men on the other boats bad heard tire musket shot, and suspecting something wrong from seeing the Clide suddently change hercourse, made chase, one and all. The affair then grew exciting, and for a while Capt. King's chances for safety were rather squally; but his gallant little craft was in earnest, and rushod on towards the haven of safety, as if she understood the whole affair. Night soon came on, and darkness hiding her from the view of her pursuers, enabled her to get safely to Fort Pike, where Capt. King recited his adventures, and excited the admiration of the garrison. Leaving the fort on Friday morning, he arrived in the New Basin on Sutuidiy, with his proner and dead sergeant, which Wcie placed in the hands of the military authorit'ei. Besides his prisoner, Capt. King captured a fine six oared launch, nearly new, one minie rifle, one musket, three bayonets, one sergeant' sword, and four car tridge boxes, filled with ammunition quite a good day's work for a simple oysterman. Elizabeth City. From a gentleman just from Elizabeth City, we learn that the enemy has not yet attempted to occupy the town, but that they have frequently attempted to destroy it. Three gun-boats have been anchored in the river, near the point where the email battery was placed. The men are allowed to jro ashore, about a mile below the town, and for some time have been guilty of daily outrages upon the farmers living in the vicinity, killing their stock and stealing everything that comes within reach. No kiud of private property is respected. The pickets of the 3d Georgia regiment are stationed in the town, and are ordered to fire upon the Yankees if they attempt to enter it. In return, the Yankees threaten if a single man is fired on, the town will be immediately destroyed. Nearly all the inhabitants have left. Our sick and wounded have been removed to Norfolk. Rich mond Dispatch, Sth iut. TnE Donelson Victory. It turns out that the Federals, as usual, have grossly exaggerated their success at Donelson. Instead of 12,000 prisoners, they have now, occordinc to their own admission, only six thousand, and these were taken at a loss to themselves f at least as great a num ber in killed and wounded. An intelligent and respectable gentleman, who was a participant in that bloody fight, informs one of our citizens that in his escape from the fort, he miht have walked for three miles over the dead bodies of Yankees; and that, whilst making his way, as te.st he could from the enemy's lines, by which he was surround ed, lie repeatedly heard them saying that they had lost five thousand wounded! Gen. 1'iliow states in his report, that our entire force consisted of on ly twelve thousand men, whilst the Lincolnites outnumbered us four to one; so that, against such tremendous odds our little army killed and disabled a number equal to its entire torcel Nor is the capture of Nashville a subject nf such nnmingled gratification to the invaders as they had fondly anticipated. They do not hesitate to confess their mortification that no display of Un ion flags was made in Nashville, and no demonstra tion of the Union sentiment which they profess to have expected. The Union mirage uniformly dis appears as they approach it. A Bad Investment. The Norfolk corres pondent of the PetersburgExpress learns from "re liable private sources" that when the ship with the Port Royal stolen cotton arrived at New York a match was applied to the hold by some one, and ship and cargo were consumed.

Bill and Giles we bought the 14th of last November at the estate sale of Ed. Leach, on Broad River, in York District. They being brothers and having rela tions in the neighborhood where we purchased them, it is more than likely they have made their way back to their old neighborhood. Bill ia about 26 years old, 5 feet 8 inches high, will weigh 15o or 160 pounds; is very black; rather sharp faced, spenks quick when spoken to. Giles his brother, is about 24 years old: 5 feet 9 inches high; will weigh 160 lbs., is very black, and walks with his head up and feet turned out in front. Henry, we purchased Jan. 1, of Col. C. Kivcs on the Catawba river. Ke is 28 years old, well set. 5 feet 10 inches high, and will weigh 175 pounds; has a heavy brow and speaks slowly; has some character as a run away. May go to Charleston or Washington city, it is hard telling where he will go as he is a gentleman of travel. They nil ran off about the same time. We will pny $75 reward for the 3 men; or $25 a piece for either of them delivered in any jail to that w e can get them. These boys may attempt to make their way Norih as some others from this place have at tempted. PRIDE 4 M'NOVANT. Chester. S. C, July 30, 18C1 tf 0 0 0 I860. V 0 JAMES U.
