W. H. Harrisson, said to -be an Eng
lishman by birth, who has resided in Wil
mington for the past six or seven yers,
left here early last week ostensibly
Baltimore, but in reality for parts un
known, taking with him every tiling por
table belonging to himself and some other
things, also portable, belonging to other
people. Harrison has been known here
at various times as a gambler, a bar-keep-and
a lottery runner. Some years ago
he obtained possession of the charter of
tnc North Carolina Beneficial Association
and had a "wheel of fortune" by which
he at different times realized considera
ble amounts here and elsewhere. His last
prosperous venture was tho establishment
here of a lottery dudw- - ''h--'A
of the Kentucky drawing, and to this end
he was seeking to organize a company. But
the times were hard and money came in
too'slowly and hence Harrison, despairing
of accomplishing anything here, took
flight for other scenes He was accom
panied by ins family and a man by the
name of Mathews, who seems to have
been associated with him in the lottery
scheme. He stated that he was going to
BaltimorGi Avhcre he had the promise of
subscriptions, to his scheme, and

one party gave him a note for $000,
which he got discounted. He alsj pro-
