Jumped His Bond.
George West, the distinguished colored
citizen from Masonboro township,! men-
i
tioned in the columns of the Review
yesterday as being charged with the theft
of a fine old Westphalia ham, was ar
raigned before Justice Millis upon the
charge and the trial ct the case at the
urgent request of the defendant postponed
until this morning at 11 o'clock. Mean
time 'the defendant was required to
furnish surety in the sum of $100 for his
appearance at the above named hour this
morning. And sure
enough ...when
the time for the trial arrived.
George West weren't there; in other,
words, as old Judge Smith, of Vermont,
would say, he was r.on comatibut in
swampo or 'tha'r about.' Proclamation
for Geo. West to come forward and stand
his trial was made by Justice Millis from
the door of his office, and then for his
sureties, at the hour above named, this
morning, to come forward andjproduce the
body of George West, but! at the hour at
which we write the delinquent George
's still non est. The truth of the who!e
business is simply this: There was a Wes'
phalia on the part of the defendant in this
case to steal successfully a ham and on
the part of the trial Justice a failure to
get West for a ham.

Tbe Sadie lyillcutt.
We learn the following particulars
relative to the accident which befell the
schooner Sadie Willcut,
mander, Captain Watts.
from her cont-
The schooner
left Brunswick, Ga., on the 5th inst.,
bound for Boston with a cargo of lumber.
Had pleasant weather and a pleasant
passage until about one o'clock on Sun
day morning, the 9th inst., at which time
we were 25 miles. E. by E. ha f E.;
from Frying Pan Light Ship,when we were
run into by the schooner Joanna Doughty,
carrying away our bowsprit, foremast
head, a portion of tbe stem and the port
cut-bead, and causing her to spring
aleak, so that it was only ty the
utmost exertions of the crew at both
pumps that she could be kept free .
The Joanna Doughty, after striking,
swung alongside where she remained
about ten minutes before she
could be got clear. After gettiDg
clear and remaining so for about an
hour, she again run into us on the same
(port) side, carrying awsy our chain
plates, breaking main rail and staving
bulwarks, besides doing considerable
damage to the rigging, after w;hiob she
got clear and kept clear. At 9 o'clock
we were taken in tow by the steamer
Virginia, of the Philadelphia j and
Charleston line, and towed to tbe month
of the Cape Fear, where we were taken in
tow : by the steaming Gladiolus and
brought np to the harbor opposite Smith
ville, where the scnooner is now at anchor.
This is surely unhealthy weather. At
daylight this morning the fog was "so
thick that you could cut it with a knife"
and it took two hours of sunshine to dis
perse it. ' L'.

Considerable amusement w:ts created
on Market street, this oioiuinr, by an ox
funning full tilt down the stiest with a
cart. The driver, a colored wan,, who
was in the cart at the time, swung hold
of the lines right mhnf ully until the seat
upon which he was perched eapBized and
threw him backwards, and then ha was
lost to view for sometime. Meanwhile the
bqyine steed made rapid heaJway, turn
ing$he corner of Front and Mai ket in a
full gallop, while a crowd oi small boy
addgdmuchj zest to the runaway for- the
lookers-on by their cries of whoa! Emma?
and other like interesting expressions.

up on Front street without having done
any damage. Anj thing j for an item;

Indian Summer.
We arj now enjoying: the delightful
season of the year known as Indian Sum
mer. It is the season of the huntman's
keenest delight and to him who follows
the sports of the forests and streams,
Indian Summer always recalls happy re
collections. The eupy able character of
this genial reason of the year has been the
theme of poets for years and years, and
lately has attracted the attention of physi
cists, some of whom give the following
cause for this periodical phenomenon:
As either pole of the earth is turned
toward the sun after the vernal equinox,
the solar effect increases in the direction of
that pole until a thaw of the winter's ac
cumulated ice! sets in, when an interval of
cold occurs, caused by the rapid absorp
tion of the solar heat, and thus the frequent
'cold spells' of the later spring months
have been accounted for. When, on the
contrary , either ole is turned away from
the sun after the autumnal equinox the
converse process takes place; the higher
parts of the continent are chilled, and
the ensuiDg condensation of the vapor in
the air liberating its beat raises the
temperature, and ah interval of fine and
comparatively warm weather or 'second
summer' follows This simple explana
ticn of Indian summer, first advanced by
Admiral Fitzrow, is corroborated by the
fact that the increase of temperature at
tending it "13 greatest in; the higher lati
tudes of America, when it is described ss
sometimes i oppressive' just when, of
cjurse.the earth's crust in October is under
going the most lapid refrigeration, where
ice ia forming, axidconiequently ihe heat
of condensation is most freely hUrated
from the lower atmospheric strata. The
heat generated by condensation is familiar
to all whoreUect on their sensations when
a shower is being formed iu th6 clouds
by this procea ou asuhry day. I Were it
not for tha comparative dryness ot tho air
in the interior of tb coutiuetit, or, rather,
if it was moist enough at ihis season, ihe
cooling of the soil woull produce ihjud
and rain, iustead t flii,tdry !

THE SUN FOE 1880.
Thk 8uh will deal with the events of the
year 1880 in its own fashion, now pretty well
understood by eyerybody. Froai January 1
until December 31 it will be conducted as a
newspaper, written in the English language,
and printed for the people.
As a newspaper, Thk Hcn believes in get
ting all the ners of the world promptly, and
presenting it in the most Intelligible shape
the shape that wili enable its readers to keep
well abreast of the age with the least unpro
ductive expenditure of time. The greatest
interest to the greatest number that is, the
law controlling its daily make-up. It now
has a circulation very! much larger than that
of any other American newspaper, and en
joys an income which jit is at all times pre
pared to spend liberally for the benefit of its
reader?. People of all conditions of life and
all ways of thinking buy and read Thk Sun ;
and they all derive satisfaction of s me oxt
from its olumns, for they Ljeep on bujirg
aad reading it. j "
In it? comments on men and affairs, The
Scn be'iorea that the only guide of policy
should be common sense, inspired by geuu
ine American principles and b-cked by hon
esty of purpose. For this reason it is, ac.d
will continue to be, absolutely independent
of party, clas, clique, organization, or in
terest. It ia for all, bat of none. It will
continue to praise what is good, aad repro
bate what is evil, taking cae that its lan
guage is to the point and plain, beyond the
possibility of being misunderstood. It is un
influenced by motives t".at do not appear on
the surface; it has no op nious to ssll, save
those which may be had by any purchaser
with two cents. It hates injustice and ras
cality even more than it hates unnecessary
words. It abhorB frauds, pities fools, and de
plores nincompoops of every species. It will
c mtinue throughout the year 1680 to chastise
tne first class, instruct the second, and dis
countenance the third. All honeLt men with
honest conv ctions, whether sound or mis
taken, are its friends. And Thi cx makes
lo bonea of telling tbe truth to its fri-nds and
about its friends whenever occasir n arlee. for
plain speaking.'
The-e are the principles upon which Taa
8un will be conducted daring the year to
come.
'I he year 1880 will be one in which no pat
riotic American can afford to e'ese bis eyes
to public aSaiis. It is impossible to exag
gerate the importance cf the polit'cal events
which it has in store, or tbe necessity of reso
lute vigilance on the part of every citizen
who desires to preserve the Government that
tbe founders gave us. The debates and ac's
of Congress, the utteranc s of the press, the
exciting contests of the Republican and Dem
ocratic parties, now nearly equal in strength
throughout the coon try, the varying drift of
public sentim eat, will all bear directly and
effectively upon the twenty-fourth Presiden
tial election, to be held in November, Feur
years ago next November the will of tbe
nation, as expressed at the polls, was thwart
ed by an abominable conspiracy, the promo
ters and beneficiaries of which still hold the
offices they stole. Will tie crime of 187s be
repeated in 1830 ? The past decade of years
opened with a corrupt, extravagant, and in
solent Administration intrenched at Wach
ington, Thk Bun did something toward dis
lodging the gang and breaking it power.
The same men are now iotrigaing to restore
their leader and themselves to places from
which they were driven by the indignation
of the people. Will they succeed? The
coming year will bring the aaswers to these
momentous questions. Tbe cx will be on
hand to chronicle the facts as thiy are devel
oped, and to exhibit them clearly aad fear
lessly in their re'atione to expediency atd
right..
Thus, with a habit of philosophical good
humor in looking at the minor affairs of life,
and in great things a steadfast purpose to
maintain the rights, of the people and the
principles of thi Constitution 'agiinrt all
aggressors, Thm tSvm is prepared to write a
truthful, instructive, and at tbe saoio time
entertaining history of 180.
